Dapat kasi...

Ang hirap ng healthy lifestyle. Kailangang mag- exercise, motivated, matulog ng sapat na oras, uminom ng vitamins, kumain ng tama at higit sa lahat disiplinado.

Minsan iniisip ko na kailangan ko ng gym buddy, yung spatter ba. Kaso kasama non dapat makipagusap ako sa kanya, kasi alangan naman para kaming mga mime na nag-eexercise sa free weights area. Tsaka di ko makuha bakit kailangan maghawakan ng katawan para itama yung posture o alalayan?

Meron din naman akong kaibigan sa Fitness First pero karamihan eh yung mga nakakasama ko sa GX Class. Sempre dun kanya kanya, kaya gustung-gusto ko kasi walang interaction with the classmates.

Anyway, tuwing nag eexercise ako sa free weights area ayoko talaga ng may interaction, bonding at speaking. Mas gusto ko mag-isip at magpacute sa taong nakikita ko sa salamin.

Gusto ko lang ilabas kasi napapansin ko, nag sasalita na ako mag isa. 

Ikaw? Tuwing nag eexercise ka, gusto mo may kasama o wala?

When knowing becomes boring

An old friend once told me that reading books eliminate the element of surprise of knowing things.

Reading makes one smart by knowing things in advance thru learning via the experiences of others or maybe from a well-known study.

It is sure that with all the self-help books available in the bookstore, one can equip oneself of everything they need to cope up with the harshness that world could bring, e.g. Heartbreak (LoL)

But then again, where's the fun of it when you already know what to do?

You know that touching the fire is painful. It can give you burns, sometimes it can leave a terrible scar.

But have you been burn? Is it enough to know things and not experience it?

Is it enough to give empathy and not sympathy?

When is it enough to know and when is it ok to try?

Blogging in iPad

Now I can blog with my iPad.

My birthday is coming up and I still don't know what to do on the 29th. I'm thinking of celebrating it or just do it my way just like what I did every year.

Anyway just checking up in my blog.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE.

P.S.

I eat slowly now. 2012 resolution ACHIEVE!

Double-Edge Question

I spent my last two weeks of December 2011 in the Philippines. My first time after three years of being away from home.

One fine morning as I walked briskly to our dining area to enjoy a homemade breakfast, c/o my Auntie Luz, there I found my mother enjoying her morning chuckling over a lifestyle magazine. I let her be as I was very excited to have breakfast at our home in Dasmariñas, Cavite.

And then, out of no where, my mom, true to form for being unpredictable, asked me a question I didn't imagine she will asked me one day...

Mama: Ton, anak, nakikipagsex ka ba sa Singapore? (Ton, son, are you having sex in Singapore?)

Me: *I crossed my arms and looked at her* Say what?!

Mama: Oo o hindi, virgin ka pa ?(Yes or No, are you still a virgin?)

See kids, this is a double-edge question. If I answer NO, I will be subject of further interrogation which can lead to me being an endless topic of my parents over dinner. If I answer YES, it's as if I'll say to my Mom that his son is a fcuking LOSER. I'll be a laughing stock of my father.

Perpetual Humiliation on my part!

Mortified by the words of my mother, all I can reply to her was...

Me: It's something PRIVATE! *I looked away*

That's when my Auntie blurted out

Auntie: si TonTon may tinatago sa atin *grins*(TonTon is hiding something from us *grins*)

Mama : di nga Ton? Magkwento ka naman ( Really Ton? Come on share your stories)

This is when I transferred seats from our dining room to our living room where I watched TV while eating (in which by the way, I'm not fond of) just to avoid the two women who can shake me to my very core, without even trying.

But after realizing what had happened, I know that my heart was home again.

- - - -

The night of April 26, I received a news from my sister. A kind of news I never expected I'll come across with.

Mama and Papa were in a vehicular accident in Ternate, Cavite along the Kamatayan Bridge(press here to know the translation). The jeep that my father was driving suddenly lose the breaks and rolled over three times, missing a two or three meters away from falling down the cliff. 

They're ok now, although they suffered minor injuries, they are still as sharp as a tack. 

And after what had happened, I'm thank the Lord for keeping them safe and saving them from death.

Moreover, I am happy that when I come home this 17, I will still have that kind conversation with my parents.

I still have them in my life. I can still share everything to them. I still have a chance to make them happier.

I love you Ma and Pa.

Why 'Everything is going to be Okay' is a bad advice.

One fine afternoon, I had a chat with my good friend about her worries in the coming months, such as her status in her new life in Australia, her relationship status with her Aussie boyfriend, her career in her company, and many other to name a few.

At first I was blissfully unaware of her worries but as she stated one by one her problems that is coming her way, it made clear to me that uncertainty of her future is brewing in the horizon. In a nutshell, to her it'll be either success or fail, happiness or sadness, stone or no stone, 1 or 0, to gain all or to lose all.

Overwhelmed with her problems and pressured from the support responsibilities of my job, all I could reply to her was a straight-forward cliche of "you shouldn't worry, EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY."

EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY.

EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY.

EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY...

Is it??????

The moment it left me, it echoed in my mind how a failure of a friend I am to her when I blurted that out. That all I could say to her is an assurance, based on nothing, that everything will be fine. In which, by all honesty, I don't know how it will turn out to be okay. It's as if I just told her that just to shut her up, which is not my intention. What my intention is to make her feel secured no matter what happens in the end. I guess, I chose the wrong words.

EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY... Is such a detached phrase. It's like saying, shut up and stop worrying about some trivial matters. It's like blocking her up and leaving her alone to deal with her problems.

EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY... doesn't show sympathy or care towards my friend who probably is being mentally tortured by the negative thoughts in her mind, whether or not it is self-induced.

EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY... will not make everything ok, neither it will magically solve her problems.

So Mamang (our nickname/pet name to her), I may not have the answer to your problems and I may not give the most sensible advice to quench all your worries, but sweetie, let me take back my words and say this. I don't know what will happen, whether life will favor you or screw you, I will be standing or sitting beside you, drinking away your happiness or sadness like we always do.

I promise you, no matter what happens, I WILL BE HERE...

Macho Supplements

Admit it, everyone needs help, even your muscles... and one way to do it is to pump up some iron and take up some supplements.

I stumbled upon this NutriFirst Store in Paya Lebar one time during my search for CREATINE powder in the internet. I thought at first that I won't be needing to shop in here since I am already a member of GNC, where I frequently buy my supplement needs. However as I browse through the site, I found out that they sell a wide array of products all about health and fitness. SCHWEETT!!!!

Also they sell each product way cheaper than GNC, like waaayyyy cheaper, even with the discounted price. Plus, NutriFirst do online shopping with free delivery and Cash on Delivery service! CONVENIENTE!!!

Here are the supplements that I bought in Nutrifirst. Believe me it's not much and it's not that expensive. If I bought this in GNC the price might be more than double and I might be broke for several weeks.

Now I'm excited to go SPARTAN and do HARDCORE workouts!

Butter and Scrubs

In the past three or five days, I make sure that I am marinated with body butter before going to slumber land. Body butter is what you put in your body during the night to keep you moisturize for at least 24 hours. It's thicker that your normal lotion and it's most effective after taking a body scrub. By the way cold temperature can easily dry our skin.

My friendship with body butter came into being when my gal friend, Jhona, made me try her Bath and Body Works' Secret Wonderland Body Butter. One application to my skin made me puke rainbows!!! Me mucho mucho mucho gusto!


However, Bath and Body Works is not available here in Singapore (ouerh... DAMN!) but we manage to order online thru their website. So, it's just a matter of time before I get my hands on it. La La La La La La!

For the time being, another of my gal friend Rhiamar, researched an alternative brand that we can use while waiting for the golden egg. She introduced to us Bali Ratih Body Scrub and Body Butter. Well, she found this online store that sells this products the are being manufactured in Bali Indonesia. Hence, the name.

I ordered their Almond Nut Body Scrub and Body Butter for the simple reason that I don't like fruity/flowery scent in my body. Don't get me wrong, I like it with girls but I don't like it in my body even though I'll only be using it at night.


Each costs around 8 SGD, free delivery if you'll order a certain number of their products. There are several more flavor from Bali Ratih and according to them Olive is their best seller. If you are interested, just ping me and I'll ping you their website. I kinda forgot.

I plan to exfoliate three times a week while I apply the body butter every night after I clean myself before going to bed. This will make your room smelling so good and it will leave you with a soft smooth skin the morning after. You'll be feeling like a baby waking up in the morning.

Now, if you are planning to buy some upscale products, try the ones from The Body Shop. For my preference, I bought the Shea flavored Body Scrub and Body Butter. The Shea nut is perfect for people with dry skin. You'll notice it with their scrub which has a very rough granules perfect for hard skin polishing. The Shea Body Butter is LOVE! It's like slathering your skin with Nutella!


The Scrub and Butter cost 30 SGD each but if you are a member of The Body Shop, you'll get 10% discount for every purchase. If you are lucky, you'll get 25% off.

So there, those were the scrubs and butter I use to quench my thirst for Bath and Body Works. Currently I used the Bali Ratih since I am intrigue with the product's effectiveness and affordability. So far it's doing good, three days after using it I can already see the effects to my skin.

Be good to your skin, after all it's the largest organ of our body and who doesn't want to feel and look good?

Start Small

September when Rhia blurted out "Ay ba't ganyan skin mo?! Maglotion ka!" (Why's your skin like that? Put lotion on your skin!)

Yep! I didn't realized how dry my skin was until Rhia pointed it out, while we were waiting for the MRT going to Marina Bay Station. My siblings too have always reminded me to take care of my skin, being a hardheaded brother as I am, I didn't listen to them. Plus it's a tiring process to add "taking-care-of--your-skin" to my everyday life.

Mind you, it's hard to inject a new habit into your system. Especially when this habit involves putting sticky substance into my skin. Plus, the hot weather of Singapore adds to the discomfort it may bring to my body. I hate slimy sweat!

And I know how frustrating and disappointing it is to fail in a habit you want to add in your life. Failing is very expensive (time, effort and money are wasted) and no one wants to afford that. Especially ME!

So what I did, I start small. I did it little by little.

First, I apply a very thin portion to my chest. I did it for several days until my skin is comfortable with the lotion as if it wasn't there at all.

Then I add more areas of my body, one at a time. From my chest I included my shoulders, then my back, my stomach, my arms then so on and so forth. I did it until my upper body is fully moisturized.

So what am I saying is that whenever you want to acquire a new habit or a new skill perhaps, it's better to start small and increase the intensity little by little. Also, it doesn't matter in where you will start. The important thing is, you START somewhere.

So now, I'm loving the changes/improvement that I am seeing in my skin brought by my new habit of applying lotion to my body. I'm working out my body to add more years to my life, why not take care of my skin to add more elasticity in it?

Find a habit, start small and work things out little by little until you achieved your goal.

What I want for 2012

I want to have DATES!

Take note of the S! PLURAL men!

You read it right, I want to have many dates this 2012 and I wish to have it with the same person over and over again. Hopefully.

The type of date which is let's get-to-know-each-other-over-coffee-let's-go-see-a-movie-or-let's-go-travel-somewhere-and-have-an-awesome-sex-afterwards kinda thing.

Mahirap bang hilingin/gawin yun?

And my new year resolution for 2012 is to eat my food slowly.

what's yours?

Postcards and Letters

My housemates, Spica and JP, introduced me to this hobby of sending postcards whenever I travel. Before, I thought that this kind of hobby promotes boasting of one's luxury of traveling, but as I see it now, sending postcards to your loved ones, friends and colleagues shows that you remember them and they are part of your thoughts wherever you are.

With postcards, you tell everyone that wherever you are, you want to share to them a piece of happiness that you are experiencing during that very moment.

My trip to Vietnam and Cambodia gave me an opportunity to send some to the people that I want to remember and I want to say thanks to. Also with this hobb,y I get to practiced writing of some of my thoughts and share it with my friends.

Below are some of my favorites that I have written and sent to the Philippines, USA and Singapore. I have obscured the name and address of the recipient for privacy reasons.












Ok, I have might miss sending out to some people, but please bear with me, sending one postcard is not cheap and I'll be going around Asia this year, so to those who won't received one, please wait, I'll send you one next time.

If you want me to send you a postcard, give me your address and I'll be happy to get in touch thru postcards.

Bono and Rand

Before heading home I went to ION Orchard to window shop for a camera bag for my new Leica, but instead I ended up buying books from Borders in Wheelock.

de Bono and Rand, I'm your number one fan

I wasn't planning to buy books at that time but I would never again say pass for their works since their books are very scarce in the Philippines and it's the last piece here.

After the failed window shopping, I went home to put on covers to my other pending books.

Just like my PS3, I need to catch up on literary works too

I also took the burden of covering Jhona's books which consist of mostly Dan Brown's novel. I recommended to her De Bono's book but she bought it because she thought that the cover is nice.

To Jhona: Thank you for letting me stay in your house last January.

The mundane things followed after that.

The List of Books
1. Philosophy: Who needs it by Ayn Rand
2. We the Living by Ayn Rand
3. Six Thinking Hats by Edward de Bono
4. Tactics by Edward de Bono
5. This book does not exist by Michael Picard and Gary Hayden
6. Nudge by Richard H. Taler7. The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown

To do list

1. Fixed the layout of this blog.
2. Setup my Flickr Photosteam.
3. Make a profile picture.
4. Think of a new name for my blog.
5. Think of a theme for this year.

Suggestions are welcome?

Now the work starts.

Mabilisang Chismax!

Friday and Saturday, Feb 18-19, 2011, nag back-to-back movie ako with my back-to-back friends na nagbobook ng Back-To-Back Trades (officemates).

Anyway, yung mga movie na 'to eh definitely napanood nyo na dahil lahat ito eh available na for downloads or video streaming sa internet. Subalit, ako ay may paniniwala na may mga pelikula na dapat pinapanood sa sinehan. Ito ay sa kadahilanang,

1.) Aircon sa sinehan,
2.) Madilim sa sinehan,
3.) May upuan sa sinehan,
4.) Malaki ang tv sa sinehan at
5.) Maganda ang vibe ng tawanan, takutan, iyakan, kiligan at tsismisan sa sinehan.

Seating Arrangement, oo issue ito sa amin dahil sa mga filipino ang kasama ko hindi maiiwasan na maingay, makulit at overreacting ang mga pinoy kapag nasa sinehan. True! kaya siempre para maiwasan ang unahan, agawan, awayan, rape, hipuan at upang walang mainjury, nagbunutan kami ng aming upuan.

PARTICIPANTS
1. Blue - React kung React! Mabasag na moment mo magrereact ako! yan si Blue!
2. Jhona - babaeng blue, tawa ng tawa sa scene kahit wala namang nakakatawa.
3. Angeli - Dog Person, mahilig mag-rollover sa upuan, hongkolet hindi mapirmi.
4. Makriz - absorb sa movie, sinusulit ang 300 pesos na binayad.
5. Antoni - absorb sa movie, english kailangan ng concentration.

Movies

Black Swan

Seating Arrangement: Antoni - Makris - Jhona - Angeli
COMMENT: This is the perfect example of a bida na di kaya ang pressure ng pagiging bida. Potek ang ganda ni Mila Kunis! Gusto ko siyang iuwi pagsayawin habang kumakain ako.
NOTE: Wala si Blue, di kaya ng brain cells nya ang Black Swan dahil isa siyang Black Sheep.

127 Hours

Seating Arrangement: Antoni - Makris - Jhona - Angeli - Blue
COMMENT: Ang ganda ng paa at talampakan ni James Franco! Gusto ko nung lugar kung saan siya natrap, secluded at parang di mainit hahaha.

Just Go with it

Seating Arrangement: Jhona - Makris - Blue - Ako - Angeli
COMMENT: Sulit ang 300 pesos! May natutunan akong bagong paraan sa pangbablackmail, pagsisinungaling at pakikipagnegotiate. Ang ganda pa rin ni Nicole Kidman!

The Rite

Seating Arrangement: Antoni - Makris - Jhona - Angeli - Blue
COMMENT: totally disappointing! Una di ako naniniwala sa possession, pangalawa hindi ako katoliko at pangatlo yung young priest di marunong umarte. Yung arte ni Anthony Hopkins nung napossess eh same ng character niya bilang Hannibal Lecter minus the creapy voice.

A total of 1200 pesos ang nagastos namin para sa movie, hindi pa kasama dinner at ecstasy jan. Masarap talaga manood ng sine lalo na kapag yung crowd eh maligaya. Mareact din naman mga singaporeans pero iba pa rin ang pinoy kung magreact kasi may halong feelings.

Nood ulit tayo movie, yung Filipino Comedy naman!

Friday.Movie.Burlesque

Me, Blue, Jhona, Makriz and Angeli decided to see a movie last friday and since Singapore is lacking quality movies right now, we picked Burlesque. Actually gusto ko talagang makita at suportahan si Ninang Cher! Hi Ninang!

Unang makita ko sa STAGE si NINANG with a performance, talaga namang PLANGAK pa rin sa kagandahan! BIDA!!! Patron ka pa rin ng sangKABAKLAAN at dapat awardan ka for best in makeup dahil nagawa mong magmukhang 30 years old despite na 64 ka na. BONGGA!

On to the movie, what I like about the movie is not the plot, well obviously, but the lessons it tells about STEPPING UP and making it on your own. In the world that I live, stepping up is part of our daily work life.

There are three scene in the movie that I like.

1.) During the audition of Ali(Christina) to be a replacement for a dancer who got pregnant with his boyfriend. Ali is demanding Tess for an answer in which the latter told her that no one can give her the answer, if Ali wants to be a dancer then show everyone that she is a dancer or something to that effect. Just like in our life, kung gusto natin umasenso then pakita natin sa lahat yung gusto natin, stop running around in circles asking everyone for answers dahil kahit sila naghahanap din ng kasagutan.

2.) Tess to Ali "You're not always the New Girl". Tama, laging merong bago at meron darating na mas magaling sa atin. Anu dapat gawin? we must evolve and step to the next level. Hwag kang huminto sa iisang lugar, always seek for improvements para kapag dumating si New Girl or New Guy hindi ka mathethreaten. Tandaan, ang mga bago ang gagawa ng mga dati mong trabaho kaya dapat ikaw hahanap ka naman ng bagong gagawin, magsawa ka naman no.

3. When the curtain is about to fall instead of cowering, Ali used that opportunity to turn the tides on her favor(SING-GALORE!). We must see every good and bad thing as an opportunity and work it in our favor else we will regret to losing that shot and what will be left for us are only "what ifs"

Hindi dahil sa singing and dancing ako nahumaling sa movie na kahit tawa ng tawa yung katabi ko, I mustered my strength to focus on the movie (sayang yung bayad, ang mahal mahal). Kaya ayan ang dahilan kung bakit gusto ko yung burlesque. at wala akong pakealam sa mga reviews na yan dahil mas gusto ko na ako ang magjudge kung maganda o hindi.

Biruin mo may kinapulutan akong aral sa movie na sayawan at kantahan. hahaha

Condo.Place.Manila

People make things complicated, or at least will give you ideas that will make you go nuts, when you mention one thing to them. What do I mean by that? Well as you all know (as if may nagbabasa ng blog ko) my life is based here in Singapore and one thing that keeps me from going to the Philippines is that I have no place to stay there.

I still have my parents and they still have their house, the downside is, they lived in Dasmariñas, Cavite where getting there would take at least 2-4 hours because of the awful traffic flow in Aguinaldo Highway. The upside is, we live near Tagaytay, yihee!

Anyway, I mentioned to some of my friends and family the idea of owning a condo unit somewhere in Manila just so I have a place to stay whenever I am in the area. Some of their reactions are:

Grace: Naku F___, hwag na Condo kasi kung lumindol at gumuho yung building, nasan na property mo?
Me: Sabagay most of the condos in Manila gawa sa kawayan.

Patrick: Sa Serendra? hwag na dun super baba ng ceiling nila, ambisyosa yung units dun.
Me: Ang tangkad mo naman kasi, sa height ko mataas na yun.

Me: Sa fort area na lang kaya?
Rhona: binabaha sa area na yun eh, although maganda rin yung naidudulot ng baha sa condo sa fort.
Me: (puzzled) bakit naman?
Rhona: ... lumalabas kasi yung mga gwapo hihihihi

Sir John: Yes, kumuha ka sa area ng U-Belt tapos parentahan mo sa mga estudyante dun para yung renta eh yun ang pambabayad mo monthly. Since bata ka pa dapat ang inuuna mong bilhin eh yung mga property, yung may value hindi puro damit at laruan.
Me: (feeling batang napagalitan)

Mama: bakit ayaw mo nang tumira dito anak? Ayaw mo na sa amin ng Papa mo?
Me: (irritated) dun ka tumira habang nasa SG ako!
Mama: (delighted) Yung malapit sa Mall ang kuhanin natin tsaka yung may Veranda.
Me: GAWD!

Ate: Akala ko ba mag-ma-migrate ka na sa ibang bansa tapos bibili ka ng property dito? Paano mo ididispose yan?!

And the list goes on...

Most of them are convincing me to buy a house and lot instead of a 1 or 2 room condo unit. To me, maintaing a house will be too much for me since, as I said, I live here in Singapore and I don't want to trouble my parents for doing that responsibility since they have their own problems to deal with.

Yes, it's fun in Manila but if I have no place there I wouldn't want to tire myself from going back and forth from Cavite to Manila everytime there is a happening. Patrick, my bestfriend, is offering his pad but being an Introvert, I want a place where I can be alone with my thoughts.

Lord, wala na nga akong LOVELIFE pati ba naman Place to stay? Help me naman!

Actually, I have a choice. I just need to be in control with it.

By the way, I'm still suffering from the flu and dry cough I got from my trip back home.

Ponch.Wedding.Charms

January 15, 2010. The date of Ponch and Charms wedding.

To sum up, all the gang went home to be a witness to one of our friends' most special event in their life. The wedding was celebrated in The Shrine of Jesus and the reception was held in Manila Peninsula. (SOSYAL!)

I can't think of any words to describe the wedding, all I can think of is it was beautiful, it says everything about the bride and the groom. It was elegant and beautiful just like Charms and fun and handsome just like Ponch. That's it.

Just how all the wedding should be, all about the bride, the groom, their life and their love.

Below are the pictures taken during the wedding.

The year hasn't ended yet but I'm still going to say that I had a good 2010. I had my up and down moments but I had/have fun doing it. I enjoyed 2010!

The Lord has given me a good year, all of my prayers were answered and I learned all the lessons that He wants me to learn. I have nothing to ask for... well except for Love Life hahaha please Lord! PLEASE!!! Give me Your divine blessing! I know I can be a good boyfriend. hahahaha

So friends, readers(if there are) Let's all look forward for a happier New Year! Let's not ask 2011 to be good for us, instead, with the help of our Lord, let's make 2011 good for us.

Happy New Year!

Kailan ba ulit ako last na nagpost ng entry dito?

Ang tagal no?

enjoy kasi ang buhay kaya nakakalimutan ang online world.

I have to say goodbye, temporarily, to my camera.

my brother will use it for his photoshoots next year.

I am now thinking of buying an s95 camera and I know where to get the money.
