It's 12:30 AM already!

Still reading the history of french revolution! *sucks! and now hating this bullshit organization named PETA! (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals). They were so stupid!! Like the Got Beer?" campaign, a parody of the Got Milk? campaign. The advertisements urged college students to "wipe off those milk moustaches and replace them with. . . foam." The commercial encourages underage drinking which is really stupid! Just for the animal rights?? NO WAY!! I'am an all sort of rights advocate but PETA is getting OA! They are just thirsty of publicity!! LOL!

Oh, is Mark Feehily a faggot?


Noong akoy nasa elementarya pa lang, ang westlife na ang naging isa inspirasyon ko sa pagkahilig ko sa musika. (feeling singer ba?) Sabihin man natin na baduy na sila ngayon pero naging parte ang Westlife sa aking buhay pagkabata (at sa mga ayaw umamin jan, lumabas na!! pa-rakista effect pa jan, if i know!!).

Kaya't ito na naman nag-sisimula na naman akong maging baliw sa Westlife.. dahil pinahiram ako ng bestfriend ko ng mga VCD at CD ng Westlife.. akoy napapaiyak, at naalala ko ang aking pagkabaliw sa mga pinapangarap kong mga lalaki.. ang Westlife..

at dahil sa aking pagkabaliw sa kanila, nagsearch ako sa wikipedia... ang iba sa kanila ay may asawa na (wala na akong pag-asa!!.. huhuhu) at ang aking pinakakinagulat ay ang pagiging
jokla ni Mark
(sya pa pa naman ang paborito ko)... at sya ay may syota na.. syempre lalake?? ano pa ba.. Sayang..Pero napag-isip isip ko.. lahat naman tayo ay may tendency na maging bakla, tomboy.. actually tayo ang nagdedesisyon kung anong gender preference natin.. Siguro yung ang tingin ni mark sa kanyang Sekswalidad.. dapat na lang natin igalang ang kanyang desisyon sa paglaladlad.. eto nga yung sinabi nya eh "My sexuality doesn't define me as a person, but it's a huge part of anyone to be open about it. It's changed my life totally as I feel so much happier and at ease. It's the best thing I've ever done.".

Iyong gender preference mo kasi ang nagdidikta bilang ikaw at ang kung sino mang tao ang nagdikta nung para sayo isa na syang human rights violation.. LOLZ!! ano ba ito! napunta tayo sa Human Rights.. We'll talagang naalala ko lang talaga ang mga tinuro samin nung Human Rights Training sa Astoria.. hay.. Sana maging masaya na si Mark..

Before Sunrise and Before sunset (movie review)

Recently, I watched Before Sunrise and its sequel Before Sunset starring Ethan Hawke (one of the characters of Dead Poet Society) and Julie Delpy.. I really love watching the movie.... The story is very idealistic, you'll never know if these kind of relationship would exist.

The movie follows Celine (julie delpy), A French grad student traveling back to Paris to attend school at La Sorbonne after having visited her grandmother in Budapest. And an American boy named Jesse (Ethan Hawke) on his way to Vienna to catch a flight back home after a traumatic break-up. They meet on a train and after talking for a while, Jesse convinced Celine to get off the train with him at Vienna and wind up spending one romantic evening together in Vienna. They talk about themselves, about dreams, about art, about relationships, about the dynamics of men and women, about each other. Throughout their conversations, you can track the entire evolution of a relationship, from attraction to flirtation to growing respect to understanding to romance.

Sometime through the night they click romantically and end up sleeping together in the park. After theyre one night stand, they'd promise to each other that they'll meet together at the same place after 6 months in Austria.. but on the day they'll be met, Celine's grandmother died and she has no choice but to attend the funeral instead and never meet Jesse in Austria. But after 9 years, they met accidentally in a bookstore in Paris when Jesse is having a book signing in his first novel. For not seeing for a long time they decided to have some intellectual talks together eventhough Jesse will only be stayingin Paris for two hours because of his flight back to America. The two are not happy to their relationship, Jesse marriage is not working anymore and Celine is not happy to his present boyfriend.

So the climax of the story is whether Jesse stays in Paris, file a divorce against his wife and be with Celine or He will come back to America and forget Celine?

The director gives the decision to the viewers the ending of the story. The story is still unpredictable. While Jesse is staying to the house of Celine, Celine said that he will gonna miss the plane and Jesse replied that he knows it. But will he stay longer and have a another flight or will he with Celine for the rest of their lives.

As what my bestfriend said to her blog on her Berore Sunrise/Sunset review: "There's really no implied ending... It all depends on you, the watcher, what their fate may be... I really love the ending, it makes you think..."

Unfair grading system!

It's already:

11:01 pm

And I want to sleep early due to my runny nose and headache but I have this drive to update my blog, make an article and share it all over the world about this "talamak" or should i say a rampant thing that happens in every schools and universities, The unfair grading system.. though it is not yet approved by CHED (Commision on Higher Education) and DEP-ED (Department of Education, but this unfair grading system occurs.

The qualifications of this system:

First Qualification:

If the professor/teacher is a sex maniac and gets hot with those sexy ass and those big luscious boobs, if you pass this qualifications then you'll be pass to his subject. If he wants to have a one night stand with you then if you pass his qualification you'll get 100.1% assurance to be a Valedictorian of his class.

Second Qualification:
If the professor/teacher likes those man oozing with masculinity (most likely they are kumadrona, and gays)and can't help but to make their underwear falls to the ground without effort of his irresistable charisma. If you meet this qualifications, you'll be pass to her subject. And as I said earlier, if you give her ever wishing one night stand.. Then maybe you'll be the next Summa Cum Laude on your batch.

Third Qualification:
If you have this pleaing personality and make sipsip to your teachers and can be his buddy anytime, in bringing his things, having some talks with your professor or maybe if you have the ability to poison your professors mind (without even noticing by your professor) to give you a high grades and make reasons such as "we're close Sir, may pinagsamahan tayo". If you can do this things (just make sure that professor is madaling mauto) you can pass to his subject and maybe be the top 1 of your class.

Fourth Qualification:
This is the easiest among the other qualification. If you have the "dugong Ma'am Sanchez" or in others words your professor is your relative (mother, father, aunt and uncle) then instanstly you can pass his subject and be among the prospects of the most outstanding student of the year.

Fifth Qualification:
If your professor is "Ulyanin" or have the alzheimers disease "kuno" and if he remembers you as his student, then you have meet this qualification then you'll be given a fair grade or maybe a higher one. Just pray and kneel to the aisle of Quiapo Church that your professor will be familiar to you in order to get a fair grade.

If you didn't meet any of this qualifications it's either you'll be failed or "pasang awa".

How sad isn't this is what is Unfair is all about.

Nice Janus! Go na ito!

He's an environmental envoy in Bayer and present his project in regards to the improvement of the environment! Lupit mo Janus! (Si Janus yung nakapula!).. ahahaha!


Four young “doers” top the BYEE 2006 search in the Philippines

Four students bested some 120 aspirants to top the 2006 Bayer Young Environmental Envoy (BYEE) in the Philippines and represent the country to annual environmental tour of Germany in November.
This year’s batch of winners is composed of Alfredo Gersava, Jr. of Sultan Kudarat State Polytechnic College, Leonardo Udasco, Jr. of Nueva Vizcaya State University, Janus Le-an Dellava of the University of the Philippines Visayas, and John Ryan Recabar of the University of the Philippines Visayas. The winners were announced during the BYEE Awards Presentation Ceremony on September 28, 2006 at the Hotel Intercontinental in Makati City.

Bayer awards the top four winners of the 2006 Bayer Young Environmental Envoys who will go to Germany in November.

For the first time, the 13 finalists competed beyond the merits of project ideas for the environment. After being short-listed, they were required to implement their project ideas within a given period of time. Each of them presented before a panel of judges the outcome of their individual projects, as well as the obstacles they encountered along the way, and how they managed to overcome these problems.
The panel of judges were composed of Undersecretary Manuel Gerochi of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources; Ms. Odette Alcantara, Convenor of Mother Earth Philippines, Ms. Rina Jimenez-David, Opinion Editor and Columnist of the Philippine Daily Inquirer and national chairperson of the national women’s group Pilipina and founding convenor of Abanse Pinay, a national women’s political movement and party list organization; Mr. Reynaldo Esguerra, Coordinator of the Program on Cleaner Production Technologies of the Department of Science & Technology; Mr. Bambam Aquino, television Bayer awards the top four winners of the 2006 Bayer Young Environmental Envoys who will go to Germany in November.

Bayer awards the top four winners of the 2006 Bayer Young Environmental Envoys who will go to Germany in November.

A civil engineering student, Gersava, Jr. introduced the technology of making rice hull cement bonded blocks for the communities of Gawad Kalinga in Sultan Kudarat. His project helps provide livelihood to the community and cuts the costs of construction materials. Gawad Kalinga is a nationwide a housing program for the poor initiated by the non-governmental organization.

Udasco, Jr., who already finished his Forestry degree and is now a licensed forester, is promoting vermicomposting as an alternative way of converting agricultural wastes into organic fertilizers. He uses earthworms to turn organic wastes into high quality compost.

Dellava was able to develop a device that converts residual plastic wastes into vegetable pots for use in urban gardening.

Recabar launched an anti-soil erosion campaign to educate people about the risks of soil erosion in Polomolok, South Cotabato and bringing the community and the private sector together to address the issue.

Gracing the awards night was Congressman Neric Acosta, one of the youngest legislators in the country and the representative of the first Disctrict of Bukidnon, who authored the landmark Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act of the Philippines. In his speech, Cong. Acosta encouraged the youth to continue with their passion for the environment by being an inspiration to others to act, to bring to the table their ideas and keep on introducing innovation, which coincidentally was similar to Bayer's Triple-III program.

Also present during the awards night were Bayer Philippines, Inc. (BPI) Vice President for Corporate Services Mr. Norbert Gilcher, BPI Director Francisco Ortigas III, BPI Chemicals General Manager Romeo Arceo, BPI Material Science Comptroller Mr Greg Ajero, Ms. Lisa Antonio of Philippine Business for Environment and Atty. Gia Ibay of KLIMA Climate Change Center.

Take this warning or else, you'll never see this again~ Joke!

I started to get obsessed with this song from Incubus "Warning" from their album Morning View.. I love the lyrics especially when I saw the video earlier in MYX on their TAKE 5 segment of incubus.. The video is kinda weird.. there is a paranoid girl who's shouting, well till im still kinda confuse whats the video is all about hahaha.. hilo na! , but anyways it is better to check the video down there:



Anyways the song is very awesome i'll give you some part of the song:

When she woke in the morning,she knew that her life had passed her by..
She called out a warning, don't let your life pass her by..(take the opportunity i guess)

Learn to love ourselves before it's made illegal.(be yourself)

and lastly this lyric makes me intrigue.. hahaha:

seduce a stranger.. (maybe be appreciative to other people)

I dunno still whats really the song is all about. I read to some website that the song has been originated in a philosopical book, and there are other says that the videos is more likely the apocalypse. The video is about a paranoid girl always saying "10:24" and when "10:24 in the morning" comes all people had disappear..and according to Nicodemus that 10:24 am will be the returning of Christ at (forgot the date) but anyways the only thing that I wanna know is what is the song is all about.. and i want it to know from Incubus..

Ame'lie Poulain! astig

Napanood ko yung amelie sa RPN 9, ay ang masasabi ko lang magnifico! though the concepts are weird, pero i like how the way it becomes weird! yan talaga ang art! sabi ng iba napaka-unrealistic na but the more important is how the director portray his film without the consultation of others..

Distansya na lang ang pagitan namin ni JM.. Shit! I was motivated now to make a proposal about theatre artist, (baka ma-meet ko sya personally ahaha). Well let see what will happen next.
