Ang Food ni Yaya

Thanks to this write up, the "yaya meal"  has been one of the hottest topic in social media the past few days... and I hated it.  I hate the thought that there are people who tend to be soooo discriminating to their house staff.  Take note: I do not hate the establishment, galit ako sa mga amo ng mga house staff.
Nakakairita isipin na ang yayaman na nga nila, pati ba naman pagkain na lang ng mga tauhan nila ay iniiba pa.  Though yeah, pasalamat na nga lang si staff at pinapakain pa - libre - pero utang na loob naman...
Madami nagalit sa Balesin, but yun nga, you can't blame the establishment for creating a "yaya meal" or perhaps a "yaya menu" basically because it may be the request of their affluent patrons.  Call it - considerate, that they come up with these budget meals.
This goes to show how social status has become very obvious in this country.  This also shows how some of these rich people who tend to be religious and "advocates of mercy and compassion" tend to be living ironies of what they believe. 
Sigh.
 

Treat for Runners: MILO APEX

Join na !!!

I have been wanting to join running clinics, particularly MILO APEX. I understand that it is quite pricey for the budget concious like me, but hey, this is waay cheaper than hiring a 1-on-1 trainer.

The program does help you achieve the best runner in you, and will make you fit - fitter and maybe the fittest in you.

APEX is about to start in BGC - and as always, I can only drool.  My work sched is preventing me from joining this as training starts in the evening and my work starts at 9PM.  Assuming the training starts at 6 until 8, then I only haave an hour to take a shower, dress up for work.  In reality, training doesnt start on the dot at 6 - and does not end on the dot at 9 - take it from me.

Anyway, here are the details...in case you have the time to join.

Have a Blessed Good Friday

Living in the Philippines is quite unfortunate for the non-Catholics.  It's such a pain to go throuogh all the boredom and the "pakikisama" with all the Catholics in the observance of the Lenten season.  All malls tend to be closed, no movies, no fast food, not a lot of fun activities to go to, unless you make Visita Iglesia a little fun with your family or friends. 

True enough, I just find the observance of Lent a little more of "just a tradition" that we all can't run away from - afterall, our ancestors were colonized by Catholicism.  In actuality, and I guess, by heart, most of the people do not totally surrender to the observance, so most hardworking people take this more as an opportunity to take a break away from the city - and go to the beach or some other place.  If you take celebrities for example, some of them take the week off and go out of the country. 

Nevertheless, with the advent of technology and modernism, it appears that the tradition is here to stay.  People need to deal with it - Catholics or not.
In any case, i wish everyone the this Friday will be truly a good one, and I hope everyone will be blessed this Good Friday - and every day!

Si Josie Rizal at ang Kontrabersiya

Ang seksi kaya ni Josie.

I am not a gamer - pero narinig ko na ang Tekken.  Di ko nga alam sinu-sino ang mga character sa Tekken na yan.  Bakit ba, di naman required na alamin yan para mabuhay.  In any case, ang alam ko, may bagong character na base sa pangalan ni Jose Rizal - at ang character na yan ay si Josie Rizal.

So what?

Halu-halo na naman ang masasabi ng mga tao.

Dinudungisan daw ang pangalan ng national hero.  Di daw bagay ang ganyan sa national hero.  Di appropriate na gawing ganyan ang isang bayani.

Ano daw?

Hibang.

Overacting.

Siguro naman isang malaking karangalan para sa isang bansa na may character sa isang worldwide na online game na naipangalan sa isang tanyag na bayani.  I just think, that naming her Josie is well thought of - dahil may kwento, may totoong tao na nabuhay sa likod ng isang character.  Maaaring iba ang kasarian ni Jose Rizal kay Josie, or magkaiba ang paraan ng pakikipaglaban nilang dalawa - ngunit, subalit, datapwat, ang character ni Josie ay enough para mapukaw muli ang interes ng manlalaro or kabataang naglalaro na alamin or malaman ang tunay na character sa likod ni Josie.

Primary attack skills daw niya at Arnis at kickboxing. Astig!

Besides, wala na bang ibang isyu na dapat pagtuunan ang mga opisyal at pati ba naman pangalan ng isang character ay pinagdidiskitahan?!

Tama lang yan.  Malamang din naman - mapupukaw ang sense ng nationalism ng mga naglalaro ng Tekken - pag ginamit nila si Josie Rizal as character sa paglalaro - dahil - love your own ika nga.
Hay.
Ewan ko na lang.
Tingin mo?

Kabaklaan sa Holy Week

Pasensya na pero buti na lang naka-cable kami, dahil kung hindi, naku - ang booooring ng mundo ko.

Sa tulad ko na di naman mahilig umalis ng bahay during Holy Week, at mas gusto pang magbabad sa bahay - lalo na sa daytime - ay naku - pasalamat talaga sa CableTV.

Ang Holy Week ang pinaka-hate ko na week dahil wala ka ibang mapapanood but mga drama drama sa TV, mga religious program at mga bible stories - na hindi ko talaga type.

Pasensya.

Kanya kanyang hilig.

Kanya kanyang trip.

Pakialam mo?!

At least sa calbe - mapapapnood ko pa rin ang American Idol at Project Runway at Asia's next Top Model Season 3.

Pak.

Baklang bakla lang.

bakit ba.

Kanya kanyang trip.

Random Thoughts

Bakit nga ba walang nagcocomment?!
Agree kaya sila sa sinasabi ko?
Disagree kaya?
Dedma lang?
or ... did not read at all - nagkataon lang na nabuksan.
Sad.
Ganun talaga.
Sino nga ba naman sin Rob Lopez para magsalita.
Huh?
Drama.

It's Officially Summer !!!

Today is the first day of April and it is officially SUMMER !!!!

Pag-Asa declared today, that it is the end of the Habagat - meaning, summer na!  Yun lang, may parating na bagyo - ang bagyong si Chedeng! Kakaibang summer.

Ito na talaga ang hudyat ng climate change, na pati ang iniisip nating irony dati na magkakabagyo sa summer ay nagkatotoo.

THE EYE OF THE STORM. Chedeng approaching the Philippine Area
of  Responsibility.  A rainy welcome to summer 2015.

Anyway, sorry na lang sa mga bigong magpaseksi para sa season...eto na nga, di na mapipigilan ang summer.

Enjoy enjoy!!!
