Killing is just a matter of time

Why do such people in power still be in their positions even though they are corrupt?
Why do such companies still abuse the people even though they killed many?
Is this justice? Or just money?
Money that can make the wrong right.
Money that can delay wrong things until it’s buried
Why is the justice takes a long time for us?
Why are the corrupt people still in power yet they have a case?
Why do influential people still looks good to others yet they are in charge of such drugs or so?
Why is a shipping company still there offering “service” yet they are still in 2 cases of
Problems that aren’t solved?(and both of their big ships are still submerged)
I know this is not my problem alone but I’m just sad not many people
Doesn’t care anymore after the media has stopped it’s attention on it.
What happened to the Euro-Generals who are going to retire after their “seminar” and brought lots of money?
I know there are MORE things that are left unnoticed and to be buried thru the method of long time till it’s gone.
It’s weird that I’m an optimist yet all I see are more negatives. I’m just sad for us..

Discipline!

A simple word yet it’s hard to follow.
Why is it hard to follow?
Is it because of the environment that we knew?
Or it feels unfair that everyone does it that you feel out of place.
You want to be good at something
Yet all you do is dream.
Dream is for inspiration
But talent needs be worked in blood.
We can’t we follow such thing?

Blood, sweat and luxuries (reality/documentary)

I’m not good in telling such stuff and this is not a review of the show.
I saw this show in Australian channel and I was deeply moved.
It shows a group of People who live in such luxuries who are immersed
From the source of their luxuries. Luxuries such as leather stuffs, gold
Jewelries and electronic gadgets. I think it has 5 or so episodes but I only get to
Watch the last 2 episodes. Our country(Philippines) was part of their immersion.
The hierarchy of things in Globalization is a deep issue here. The raw
Materials that came from 3rd world countries and the labor is fucking cheap
But when the item is branded and exported to the “other high countries”. They
Got the big income and from that raw material, they increase the profit a ten to a hundred
Fold. The laborers of that product couldn’t afford the item that they produced.
The people who immersed to the countries where shocked from what they saw.
One of the guy who was working all day, he said I just want to study but he is forced
In a environment that to live you must work. In the Philippines, they got to bond with some of the co workers and know the situation of their life. One of them is forced to work
For their family and child who lives in the province. They went to the province and was shocked that the child doesn’t recognize his mother as her own because the child doesn’t see his mother often. It’s very ironic that the mother is the one working for their survival yet her own child doesn’t acknowledge his own mom. It’s very heart wrecking to see, how much if you are the one on her own place. Why is it that the term Globalization still benefits the higher countries more than the third world countries. I think this globalization is quite wrong, In our country, the former president said we are going towards globalization yet why are we still in ruins?
It’s just a harsh reality for me..

Light and Shade

Sail on the wings of a cloud. Where to, well nobody knows
And cry, cry if you want them to see. Die every day to be free.
Be proud to wear the colours that you call your own
Be loud, speak out when you want the world to know
Be strong, hold the flame for everyone to see.
Be real, if you want to love.

Some things are better left unsaid.

How often do we misunderstood silence?

Countless times.

But there are things that are better left unsaid.

Although it could make a big difference.

Sometimes you just have to forget it.

Coz at times, it doesn’t really matter.

Sometimes, you simply just can’t find the right words.

And when you do, its just not the right time.

Sometimes, everything is just so perfect.

And words are not needed.

Sometimes you want to open up.

Yet, nobody wants to listen.

Sometimes they try to hear you out.

But they never understood.

Sometimes it will just hurt you.

Coz it will make you look stupid.

Sometimes it will just hurt the people around you.

And you never want that to happen.

Some things are better left unsaid.

And often times, if its not of love…it is of truth.

Do low paying jobs reflect the attitude of work?

We went to a government hospital to get our medico legal. We went to a typical office space where there are windows for distinct things. I ask an honest question of inquiring how to acquire the medico. The fat guy in a loud voice it’s not in my window, don’t ask me that, you should go to window 3. Then on window 3, I was also faced with the same attitude. What is their fucking problem? Is it their salary? They are not happy with the job? Why do they hit it on the people asking nicely to them? Do they know that most of the people there are first timers who don’t know what to do so they ask. What is the problem? We got the medico but we are enraged by the attitude of those people. Don’t treat us like shit when we are the ones asking you nicely. Don’t put that attitude in our face when the reason is your salary or the working environment is not that nice. We want to make ends meet but don’t be such an ass like the corrupt government officials(most of them, when will they be extinct?). Enjoy your jobs everyone even though the pay is not that good. You are even lucky because you have one.

Do we use things for it’s purpose or for PORMA?

It’s everywhere, you buy basketball shoes but it’s only used 5% of it’s life on the court so what happened to the 95%?. You buy a laptop but always go to wi-fi zones just to browse on facebook. What the hell? It’s not that you don’t have the right but what is the purpose of those things? I just want to blow this up because me and Vanessa are taking jogging seriously. It’s not that we plan to join every running competition but to be fit. We saw this bald guy with a frickin’ high tech utility belt. He looks like a serious runner. Complete package of running shoes, shades, music player, running shorts and the utility belt like batman. We really laughed out loud because it has to compartments for two different drinks, pockets for those gel things, for towel, and other stuff. But what the hell? We never saw him sweat nor see him again that day. We made 4 laps,1 lap is 2km. but we never saw him again. Porma? I think so.. We see some professional runners there just bringing one bottled water. I’m a drummer by heart And some gigs seems to be a lot of those people. Bringing double pedals and stuff but just using for endings. For what? You just want to brag you have those shiny double pedals that is expensive. So what? For me in my metal band few years ago. I bring double pedal because of it’s sound. It’s louder for individual strokes than doubled in one foot. I do one foot blast but don’t use double pedal for endings of your songs. Buy things for it’s purpose, and not just to brag and show it to others who deserve it more than you.

Amazing judges from talent shows.

I’m amazed by the judges in such talent shows. They have the powers to make one ordinary person into a celebrity by their judgment. Do you wonder if they are credible?
I don’t know but some of them are not. Do you wonder how do they get their powers of the ear when they hear such pitchy notes and know that it’s flat or sharp? I do wonder when you are a showbiz columnist then you become a judge in a singing show then you hear intonation problems all of a sudden? Wow.. I’m just wondering, It takes a long time to develop that skill but then you are from a chizmiz world then you know that all of a sudden.. wow.. it’s really amazing how you do that.. what a world.. Nostradamus maybe right because of this things happening..

Finally!

This has been our new (and improved) addiction lately! We run every weekend :) This is the reason why I practiced the art of going home early. he-he, needed a lot of courage and determination of course! Saturday mornings have never been the same, who would have thought I would be more than willing to wake up at 4:30 am especially on a weekend. Well, I’ve been successfully doing this for a month now. Thanks to my ever supporting Alvin who decided to join me in my endeavor. Like the old saying goes, “No pain, no gain.” And as for me, I’ll endure the pain as long as I could have my then 24″ tummy back!

Ditch that TV

Okay, so maybe we can lighten it up. How about, turn off that TV a little more often? I’ve been wasting a lot of my free time watching TV lately. And actually, its not always my choice. Now here’s the thing, every time I come home from work, I always catch my mom watching “teleseryes”. Since I was always too tired to go upstairs straight away, I would lie down on the sofa and watch TV for awhile. I would endlessly tease my mom on how obsessed she is with those TV programs and she would always laugh at me and ask me why do I keep on watching if I hate it? Yeah right. I want to know the answer too.

Actually, my original plan is to come home as early as possible to have more time to do my fave things which includes: reading my old magazines I’ve read countless times, writing essays and taking a bath before bedtime. But the moment I take a glimpse on what my mom is going ga-ga over, I always find myself hooked for hours, too. Well for one, I hate watching teleseyes because they seem to have this power to make a fool out of us who patronize these shows.

It’s irritating and amazing at the same time on how they manipulate us into liking things. I hate the fact that when the lead role is a famous chef, its like everyone is going crazy about chefs. If the role is a fashion designer, it seems like the whole world cares about fashion designers when in fact, we don’t even give a damn about these people in real life.

And what else? There was this one teleserye and I’m so glad that it was over, where a plain lad who dreamed of making it big in the music industry suddenly became popular when she sang for a commercial jingle. And it was like everyone was out to get her autograph. And if you happen to hear the jingle, it was so ordinary. Oh, and did I mention it was so boring? And since when did we fantasize over a commercial jingle singer in real life? The only one I was able to remember who made it big in that field and gained fans was Nikki Gil for the Coke commercial. But its not everyday that we go crazy over a singer on a commercial jingle. Come on, give us a break please.

The boob tube is controlling us. There’s more to life than wasting our time on these pointless drama. Life is already too complicated, why do we have to burden ourselves into thinking what will happen to actress A when actress B finds out she was flirting with actor A who happened to be actress B’s long time unfaithful boyfriend? I suffered the same dilemma. Man, I just spent the whole night wondering what will happen to that teleserye I was so into. Stupid of me right? I better start ditching that bad TV habit before it gets the better out of me.
