Picky With Friends

I am not the social guy, I do not like to chit chat with people whom I do not personally know. For me, friends are not someone who you'll just need for others to say that you are not a loner or that you are popular or the everybody's friend type of guy. A friend for me is someone who knows you very well, someone who'll stand by you, fight for what you think is reasonable and slaps you in the face for anything that you're doing wrong. That's how I am. I may be with a person for a long time, but you can always see whether we're close or not. It's not about the length but the experiences that you and your friends have undergone together. To evolve into better people. I must say that I look into the character of my friends. I will befriend you even if everyone says that you are some pervert who stares like a killer but in reality a gentleman compared to others. You may be the loudest mouth in the class but the perfect listener when I have a problem or when I'm sad. Not everyone is perfect. But everyone has that unique characteristic that lure other people to their company. Everyone is different but it is the respect for each other that binds them closer, find your similarities and respect each others differences. I stand by my friends because they weren't just some people I talk to or hang out with, but I chose them because of their characteristics and because of that, when somebody talks bad about them which I know is not true, I am affected. All I can say, do not judge other people's friends by their faces or actions in front of you because you were never there to know them for such prejudices to be said...

Prostate Cancer and Ejaculation

NI flowchart: my case is malignant neoplasm of prostate gland which actually means prostate cancer growing and capable of metastisis, now the crappy thing about it is that because the cells were deprived of androgen, they became androgen independent which means you'd have to increase the androgen above physiological production and that one of the activities that reduces its rate is ejaculation. The thing is, how am I suppose to add that to the what to do's of the patient. Just think about it: increase the number of your ejaculation per week. How should add this in my flowchart?

Empty Cup

Man has lived to survive
Man has lived for his life
When the storm comes, he finds refuge
When he is cold, he looks for warmth.
When he is lonely, he finds a companion.
Thy life of man is simple,
But interests sow the seeds of greed
When man wanted more, he created
When he wanted more, he waged war
When he wanted more companions, he stole them from others
When he wanted more, he became filled.
As he wanted more, simple turned complex
Confusion has reigned his mind
Lies clouded his heart.
Remember that man is simple, and simple is good
For thou hast created man is good
When man wanted more he lost good
Evil came, what is the absence of good, defiler of the just
For man only needs to do
Is to release what he has
For nothing in this world would matter
To think, we need an empty cup.

Light or Ryuzaki? Who do you like most?

Please be sure that you have either watched the anime or live action movie or read the manga. Do not comment if you don't know what you're talking about....

Well, I really kind of like Light(Kira) more than Ryuzaki(L) because his really cool. I'm not saying L is lame but the way Light does his schemes kind of interests me. L is also cool because his calculations are down right precise although the real question is how to make these presumptions into hard evidence that would point to Light as Kira, the criminal serial killer.The whole series is a cat and mouse game, each one of them have egos, that is victory is the only option. Light is that hardworking student who you could be proud of as a parent, but, because of his strong sense of justice, it also gave way to learning that their justice system is imperfect, a pure heart tainted with black forever changing the path he takes. He battles L who thinks that killing criminals is just the same as being a criminal, that the one who kills these people is a self righteous brat who uses punishment for his evil.

What I love about these guys is that we do not look stupid because just like the other movies where there is some twist of faith that makes something inevitable not happen turning us into complete morons. This is the movie that says, Hey I can think and I'm not some stupid guy who'll just accept the crap you're showing in your movie.

Anyways.... please comment who do you like most and tell us why so that we'll have a lot of people arguing each other..... hahahahahaha.... no seriously.... please comment and tell us your damn reactions. Thanks!

" A Bad Day. The Curse Of The E-book "

I tried to apply things from our NI class, and that is to try to make an e-book work on my phone. As I have failed to find the manual of my phone, I tried to download e-books that might work with my phone. I downloaded e=book makers that would convert my doc.x files to different e-book file formats. A pdf e-book file format doesn't work... and then there came the .pdb file format. I thought it might work because my phone was able to recognize it as an e-book but then it didn't open. I thought that maybe I should do a little bit more of converting, it might just not have been a working file. But my efforts failed as it seemed that my phone can only recognize it and not open it. So I tried other file formats, .bin, .lx etc..... none of them worked...... then there came the .txt format. I tried it and it worked!(S***, If I only knew, I would've just copy pasted my data on a notepad and saved it as a .txt file). Then I saw a similar documents folder on my downloads folder and on my user folder. I examined its contents and they were identical. So I deleted the other one, freeing my hard disk a lot of space. And after a few hours, I looked for the documents folder.... and it damn freaking GONE! I panicked.... how in freaking hell can the documents folder be gone?! All of my documents and my tita's documents were gone ( my tita is a teacher, I'm talking about the grades she made, lesson plans...)! Then I asked my cousin, a Com-Sci student, if there is anyway to restore a permanently deleted file (may be I’m not hearing myself that time, how ludicrous can it be to recover a permanently deleted file). My cousin helped me and asked his classmates. And then someone gave a great idea… use system restore to return my computer to a previous state (like deep-freeze). We thought it did the job… our efforts have failed. The system wasn’t affected. Then I tried to download a file undeleter program. This program recovers files which were deleted even from the recycle bin. The trick to it is that you must not use the net and download files or save files. The principle behind this is that delete files from the recycle bin are not totally deleted but they were just removed from the list which means that it is still on your hard disk. However, these “deleted” files can be overwritten if new files are saved (through document making, temporary internet files). Unfortunately, since it happened hours ago, only few files were recovered. And that is the curse of the e-book! So beware… but now at least you know what to do. Use system restore and recover from a restore point or download a file undeleter program and avoid saving files or using the internet. This should have been entitled The Misfortunate Event To Gain Knowledge For Undeleting A File…. Nah… its too long! I’m fine with the title.

Plants while becoming a zombie....

Have you ever played the computer game Plants vs. Zombies by Pop Cap? Well if you haven't, you are way behind ( I can't believe that my CI's even play this game and they've already got a gold flower). If you're still waiting for your crops to grow in farmville then wait no further for plants vs. zombies lets you plant instantly and have them fight by your side (that is if you don't want your brains to be eaten).Just plant those sunflowers to get you sunshine powers in order to plant other powerful plants in your arsenal. I have to say that I am also addicted to this game and if not for that stupid blackout (yes, the one that started around 10pm last July 13, 2010) I would have played all night and may have reached the rooftop level. Anyways, I hope you guys play this game and lets just talk all day about our leafy nonsense in a battle to keep those ugly looking zombies off our lawns.

A Race To Say Who’s Racist. The Hypocritical Racial Issue.

One of the issues that had my mind boggled is that, does anyone have a right to say whose racist? We say that Filipinos are oppressed because of racial discrimination, the black race have obviously been raising their racist issues on white people, and yes, Asians are of course have been ridiculed and have been the center of “entertainment” ( can’t you just stop laughing when a Chinese speaks English?). These are just some of the racial issues that are raised today (And God, there’s a heck lot more. Well I think my examples can give you the idea). Although I must say that I’m hoping not to insult anyone with my opinions on these issues, but hey come on, what’s their deal if they got hurt, maybe my words are striking their minds and says to them, Am I like that? As it would seem that I’m busting my ass here, I’ll continue with my blog. Let’s start with our own race, hey, hey Filipinos! We are known all over the world, not just for our hospitality, but also for being world class DH (Domestic Helpers) and sadly… prostitutes ( Hey, before getting anyone’s eyebrows raised, take note I’ve put sadly on prostitutes). Not that I’m putting down domestic helpers, I mean they are our modern heroes. What ticks me off is that, they’re our damn heroes but how come they are not proud of it! I think one of the reasons why western people (you now what color I’m talking about) are thinking too high of themselves and oppressing us is because a lot of Filipinos do not take pride on what they do that if not for them, who among those guys (yes, the rich other race people and the light colored races) could do it? By being proud of your job even though it’s a low class job or it’s a low paying job, as long as it’s an honest job, it’ll make us also to be proud of our race, the Filipino race! I mean don’t keep bringing up that crap issue on discrimination if you think that they’re a superior race when you meet one of them. Be who you are, be proud of who you are! With the black and white thing, obviously some white people really are racist, thinking that their race is more superior to the rest. And we have here the dark side (I’m referring to the color and not the personality), who had brought up the oppression issue. But I mean, aren’t they also generalizing all white people. You could observe the way how they refer to white people (don’t expect me to describe it here, go watch a movie), and how they respond if someone says the “n” word or the “g” word. But, for me it’s a double standard thing because they can say all these things to white people or to Asian people but if you say something not very pleasing to them, you’re marked as a damn racist! And yes, Asian people. Often seen as the laughing stock and also stereotyped as some freaky martial arts masters (I have to give that one to MAD Tv, nice one Bobby Lee). I mean, why the heck are you laughing with our pronunciations, Asian people as you all know are known for their brains! But hey, Asians too are racists, since some Asians are lighter colored, they’re racist towards dark colored people (just look around here in the Philippines, glutathione anyone?). With all these things said, are we not racists? Are we just using this term to defend ourselves to anything unpleasant to us even in fact we are judgmental and racist ourselves? Is the term racist exclusive to a certain race? Is the racial issue just one of the other hypocritical issues that have been raised since the older days up to the present era? These are the questions which I leave to you and for you to answer for yourselves. And that’s a wrap!

Bayan Ng Pilipinas, Bayan Ng Kasinungalingan

Palalayain ka ng katotohanan. Ito ay ating madalas sabihin. Hustisya, ang parati nating idinaraing at ipinaglalaban. Halika’t balikan natin ang kasaysayang atin.

Noong una pa ma’y wala ng pagkakaisa … bara-baragay ang sistema. Nagpapalakasan, nagpapagalingan … gustong mahigitan ang isa. Sa pagdating ng mga kastila, tayo’y “binago.” Meron na tayong pamahalaan, pamahalaang ganid, sakim at mapang-api! Indio, illustrado … iisa lamang ang pinagkaiba, ang antas ng pamumuhay. Parehong Pilipino ngunit parehong may hidwaan. Dumating ang mga kano, ngunit isa pa lang malaking kasinungalingan! Akala nati’y darating upang tayo’y tulungan ngunit sa totoo ay binili tayo pagkatapos sa ating tatlong daang taong pagkaapi. Sinakop tayo ng mga Hapon … ngunit di katulad ng mga nauna, tayo’y galit sa ating kapwa Asyano. Bumalik muli ang mga puti at nagbigay “tulong.” Tulong na kapalit ay panghabambuhay ng pagiging tuta ng kanilang bansa.

Tayo nga’y malaya ngunit di tuluyan. Taglay pa rin natin ang pinamanang inggit ng mga ninuno, korapsyon ng mga Kastila at pang-iisa ng mga puti. Masmaganda pa nga ang ibinahagi ng mga Hapon … disiplina, pagmamahal sa bayan at karangalan. Isa tayong malaking kasinungalingan! Sinasabi nating tayo’y malaya ngunit hinahagkan at hinahalikan pa rin natin ang mga paa ng mga mananakop. Nabigo si Simon na lipunin ang mga duwag at magsimula ng bagong dugo. O’ Simon, bumalik ka at ngayong ka kailangan ng bayan mong irog! Tunay ngang palalayain tayo ng katotohanan … ito ang katotohanan ngunit patuloy tayong nagbubulagbulagan, di tayo malaya dahil patuloy pa rin tayong nababalot ng kasinungalingan. Ang mga alipin ay patuloy lamang mag-aanak ng mga alipin! Pilipinas … bansang alipin … bansa ng kaduwagan … bayan … ng kasinungalingan!
