yeah, right.

so the President thinks it's okay to give erap a pardon.

ppl say he deserves the pardon cos he's the former president. so what? doesn't that make his crime (na bkt plunder lng?!) even worse? majority of the country trusted him and put their lives in his hands. tapos anong ginawa niya? and he won't even pay for it?! he wasn't even really arrested while everything was under investigation. pra lang siyang on sembreak in his resthouse in Tanay. dapat nkahouse arrest siya sa squatter area, pra maranasan niya ung buhay ng mga taong niloko niya. ung mga buhay ng mga taong natulungan niya sana gamit ung perang ninakaw niya.

executive clemency shouldn't be a reason. so what kung presidente ka? just bec u are or used to be the president doesn't mean u shouldn't accept the consequences of ur actions. mali pa rin un, presidente ka o nde.

so much for justice.

Smile - The Ambassadors

do i have to say a thousand words
just to prove to you all my love
that i’m truly yours
do i have to walk with you down the aisle
just to prove that i am worthy of your smile
do i have to be somebody and pretend
do i have to own my princess, tell me when
do i have to wait a little while…
oh you let me wait the rest of my life…

do i have to walk with you down the aisle
just to prove that i am worthy of your smile…

my beautiful princess of the skies
why do you let me sacrifice
oh princess of the skies tell me why..

dala ng stress sa finals and lack of sleep

nagpapanic na ako a few minutes ago kasi hindi ko talaga mabuksan email ko. as in paulit-ulit ko na tlga sya sinusubukan pero ayaw pa rin. ung password, mali daw.

ginawa ko, irreset ko sana. pro kelangan ko daw sagutin ung secret question. at dahil nalimutan ko na ang laman ng memory chapter ng cog and gen psy book, hindi ko sya maalala. hindi pala pwedeng basta-basta nlng mgreset.

kaya naisip ko wala na akong choice. kelangan ko na gumawa ng bagong account. pro ayoko. kontento na kasi ako sa account ko na un. masaya ako dun.

dahil dyan, imbis na mg-aral ng expe, sinubukan kong hanapan ng paraan. at naisip ko, na kahit anong mangyari, hahanapan ko un ng solusyon. hindi kasi ako bumibitaw nlng ng ganun ganun lang.

after much thought.. nagkaroon ako ng malaking realization.
























pinalitan ko nga pala ang password ko, kani-kanina lang.

study break

from sassy guerrero's blog. na kinuha niya from... http://akosiyol.blogspot.com

its funny. :)

Akosiyol Tonite vol 3 (collect them all!)
I write to express, not to impress

Pag-utot, ipagbabawal sa Loyola Schools!

Loyola Heights -- Simula Oktubre ng taong ito, ipagbabawal na ang pag-utot sa mga Paaralang Loyola, ayon sa isang mapagkakatiwalaang source ng Akosiyol Tonite. "Ang pag-utot ay isang malinaw na paglabag sa Clean Air Act at sa karapatan ng bawat Atenista na makalanghap ng sariwang hangin," dagdag pa ng source, na ayaw magpabanggit ng pangalan.

Kaugnay nito, kumuha ng karagdagang mga security guard ang administrasyon ng Ateneo upang rumonda at manghuli ng mga umuutot. Karamihan sa kanila ay itatalaga sa mga comfort room, kung saan inaasahang maraming lalabag. Mayroon ring itatalaga sa cafeteria at Manang's, kung saan pinakamabigat ang parusang ipapataw sa sinumang uutot. "Ipalalagay sa tarpaulin ang pangalan ng mga estudyante at gurong mapatutunayang umutot sa caf at Manang's. Ipapaskil ang mga tarpaulin na ito sa paligid ng Ateneo, katabi ng mga mga tarpaulin na nagsasabing One Big Fight! kapag nananalo sa UAAP ang Ateneo," dagdag pa ng source. Nang tanungin kung kasama sa patakaran ang mga administrador, isinagot niya: "Hindi naman umuutot ang mga administrador."

Iba-iba naman ang naging reaksiyon ng mga guro at estudyante sa nasabing patakaran. Para kay Violet (hindi tunay na pangalan), isang estudyante ng JG School of Management, tama lang ang naging pasya ng administrasyon. "Hindi naman ako pumupunta sa mga CR para umamoy ng utot dati, pero natutuwa ako na kapag pumunta ako sa CR ngayon, may mga guwardiyang nagbabantay para proteksiyunan ako sa mabahong amoy," aniya. Ganito rin ang opinyon ni Onemig (hindi tunay na pangalan), estudyante ng School of Science and Engineering. "Anong klaseng men and women for others tayo kung ipaaamoy natin sa iba ang utot natin di ba?" paliwanag niya. Iba naman ang opinyon ni Marimar (hindi tunay na pangalan), estudyante ng School of Humanities. Kuwento niya, "Nakakainis. Ngayon kailangan ko nang umutot nang limang beses sa tabi ng Ministop bago sumakay ng tricycle papunta sa Ateneo. Para hindi na ako uutot throughout the day." Para naman kay G. Blogag ng School of Social Sciences, kailangang sundin ang patakaran, hindi man ito kumportable para sa marami. "We have to "think Loyola Schools" you know. Hindi lang dapat sarili nating kabag ang iniisip natin." Ikinuwento niya ring nagsisimula na siyang umiwas sa pagkain ng itlog at beans na maaaring magtulak sa kanyang lumabag sa patakaran.

Sa kaugnay na balita, pinag-uusapan rin kung ipagbabawal sa Ateneo ang pagsusuot ng maikling palda para hindi makita ang panty. Hindi pa man naihahain ang pormal na mga patakaran, may mga nagpahayag nang hindi na sila magsusuot ng panty para hindi na ito makita ninuman.

isa pang "bastos lang tlga e"

http://claifordaraofansclub.multiply.com/photos/album/4/ADMU_LOVE_for_him

okaaay. sumosobra na ang rivalry. hindi na nakakatuwa.

tama na ang paghirit ng 388-488. smaller student-teacher ratios, better facilities and all doesn't equate to good, quality education. those statistics are not enough to use as basis for which is the better university. both lasalle and ateneo are good schools. period.

plus, it's not that we can't take a joke. it's just that jokes aren't supposed to be offensive and insulting. jokes are okay as long as they still show respect.

people are posting comments, hindi dahil pikon sila. it's because those jokes insulted our players and some comments insulted our alma mater. konting respeto lang. for the people whose names were in the pictures and for the school.

kamusta naman to

In the Premiere of Desperate Housewives Teri Hatcher made a remark about Filipinos - doctors/nurses. She was talking to her doctor and then she said "Okay, before we go any further, can I check those diplomas? 'Coz I would just like to make sure they are not from some med school in the Philippines."

Dear Kababayan and Allies:

I heard through the grapevine about a remark made on an episode of "Desperate Housewives" last night. The scene entailed Teri Hatcher's character (Susan) at a hospital, being told by her gynecologist that she might be hitting menopause. Susan replied, "Can I just check those diplomas because I just want to make sure that they are not from some med school in the Philippines." If you go to abc.com, you watch the full episode and witness the scene at about 18:50 minutes into the episode.

This type of derogatory remark is not only unnecessary and hurtful, but is also unfounded, considering the presence of Filipinos and Filipino Americans in the health care industry. Filipinos are the second largest immigrant population in the United States, with many entering the U.S. and passing their U.S. licensing boards as doctors, nurses, and medical technicians. In fact, the Philippines produces more U.S. nurses than any other country in the world. So, to belittle the education, experience, or value of Filipino Americans in health care is disrespectful and plain and simply ignorant.

As Filipino Americans, we need to band together to ensure that this type of hateful message is not allowed to continue on our television and radio airwaves. Given the recent amounts of media attention that has been given to Michael Richards (against African Americans), Isaiah Washington (against gays), and Rosie O'Donnell (against Asian/ Chinese Americans), it is ridiculous that this type of hateful speech made it through various screenwriters, the show's producers, the show's actors, and ABC itself. Yet, this isn't the first time that negative remarks have been made about the Philippines or Filipinos in the past. In recent years, we've heard one too many "dogeater" comments by "comedian" Joan Rivers on the red carpet or in her standup act, and I believe that it is about time that we stand up for ourselves, so that this type of hateful speech never happens again.

Please join me in expressing your concern, disappointment, and/or disgust to the producers of ABC.com. You can sign the petition at http://www.petitiononline.com/FilABC/ or you can reach them directly at abc7@abc.com.

And please feel free to forward this widely to other Filipinos/Filipino Americans/ Asian Americans/ and other allies.

Sincerely,

Kevin Nadal,
Filipino Performance Artist/ Activist
