Manny Pacquiao Won


The much awaited second fight of Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Barrera has finally ended, and for the second time it's still Manny Pacquiao who had won! So what will happen to Marco Antonio Barrera after he had eaten what he had said in the pre-fight? According to the GMA 7 news, he might be forced to retire due to his failure to win for the second time against Pacquiao, more so due to his consecutive loses against other boxers. Ain't I hearing the same escape goat of an alibi again? As I recalled promptly and correctly, Erik Morales also had said the same thing when he lost to Manny Pacquiao before.

Anyway, the Filipino's Boxing Champ won in a unanimous decision from the 12 round fight, and the score cards were as follows:
Judge Tom Schreck scored it 115-112 for Pacquiao, while Jerry Roth and Glenn Trowbridge both favoured Pacquiao 118-109. The Associated Press also gave it to Pacquiao, 116-111.
(Chronicle journal)

Isn't that what boxing analyst had viewed prior to the fight, that Manny Pacquiao had the upper hand against his opponent? True to what they'd all been blabber about, it does end up the same as what they had expected, but the turning point of the fight was not about who had won, but instead who was the one who had shown the will to win. Both players had remained standing up to the very last round, which is of course very unexpected since both refused to be knocked-out, and this is, I think the best part of it.

But the question still remains the same anyway, am I going to be proud for him? Well, part of me wanted to go and rejoice since another Filipino had made a name in the field of sports, but at the end of the day, it's still just Manny Pacquiao achievement, and not the rest of the community.

P.S. Don't get me wrong, but this is what I'm feeling right now. I'm feeling kind of indifferent.

Gifts for him this season

Father's or even teenage guys really loves to play around with their stuffs, baseball gloves here, bats there, and a lot of things that usually ends up cluttering the place. Not all the time these guys would pick up their stuffs and place it a box in an organize manner. Most of the time it would be the mother who would tend to pick up the cluttered pieces of things and arrange them accordingly.

What if you make a time to pick up a cabinet, a storage, or a work bench and give it to them as gifts for him in this coming season? Isn't that a nice idea? You can ask them to organize their things properly in their new cabinet, storage, or work bench hence minimizing your workload as a mother to pick up, stock in a box and organize things either your son, or husband had left scattering on the floor.

Having those beautifully crafted cabinets and storages in your homes helps makes a nice ambiance, since your homes or even your garage wouldn't tend to appear like a total mess with a lot of piled metals, bolts, nuts, simple machines, and spare tires, since their properly organized and stored in a cabinet made of aluminum steel.

can moths be really messenger from the dead?

Last time I had included in my post something about a moth as a messenger from the dead. Though again, I reiterate that the said notion doesn't have validity nor sources to back it up, since it's purely a Philippine folklore superstition passed on from word of mouth, I find it really weird since just two days ago another moth just flew inside the house.


The moth that flew inside the house was same as the picture above. I really don't know much about the said superstition but so far as I recalled it from past experiences, my mother used to tell me that somebody might be missing someone in the house, or that somebody might want to be remembered by someone that's why the moth had flew in.

However, I'm pondering whether it has some connection with people nearly or almost near in his or her death bed, just like the cat in the hospital as what Rich had written in her blog. Since, prior to the moth's appearance in our house, our family had already received a dreaded message stating that a relative had been hospitalized and in his critical stage, and when it (the moth) flew inside the house and stayed there for almost two days another message was received stating that one of my grandfathers, from my father's side had passed away already already, and just the same time I had found that the moth that had arrived in the house was also dead.

Quite shocking though, that the said message woke us up early in the morning. However, is it really coincidence that the moth's existence in our house suggests that somebody had been wished to be remembered before his or her death?

coupon chief

It's -BER months again and just a month from now there will be national holidays. The hype, the fashion, the designs, the rush, the excitement and the anticipation will be there again to be felt up until the next year. Since, I'm talking about the upcoming holidays (i.e. Halloween, thanksgiving, Christmas, and new year) I had found a nice site, coupon chief that offers coupons which served of course as discount from items you will buy online.

Though, I'm not used to buying stuffs online, I do wish my parents would buy me something really nice this season, like a personal laptop of course *insert laugh here*. They can make purchase online to reduce the irksome time, and of course they can use dell coupons or hp coupons to have some nice cut-off or discounts. Or maybe just maybe buy me a new phone and also use a cellphone shop coupon for that.

Anyway as for me, I'm going to try to purchase something good online using buycostumes coupons to have some nice costumes for my little nieces and nephews who will, i hope so, participate in the upcoming trick or treat, and I might as well find the time to luxuriate on buying my mother a bag from ebags using ebags coupons of course.

teri hatcher's derogatory remark



Transcript: “Okay, before we go any further, can I check those diplomas? Cause I would just like to make sure they are not from some med school in the Philippines.”

Uhm... like what is this? Is this an acceptable desperate housewives script aired over the US and a few select countries airing the said show? Is there such a moderating body in the US that check every DISCRIMINATORY remarks made by the said show?

I think there isn't, because you all know what? It reached the news of the country that the said show discriminates! How dare the producers and writers of that show to include that demeaning and derogatory line Teri Hatcher had said? Are they too stupid enough to not even think that most of their health care workers are Filipinos! First and foremost can they present valid evidence that Filipino Medical Doctors are way too incompetent as compared to their doctors?

The Philippines may be a third world country that faces a lot of global issues, but how dare them (the script writers) think that they're far too superior than the rest of the world combined! Not all the time, a first world country produces the best of the crop, sometimes even third world countries does and it's far better!

Garage Cabinets

Do you have like a messy garage or something similar to that?

Then diamond plate cabinets from CarGuyGarage.com is here to help you out on your garage problems. The said diamond plate cabinets are extremely exquisite when it comes to its designs, and definitely a must have in either your home or office!

Though most people and garage owners would prefer wooden cabinets in their garage since it may "sometimes" last long and doesn't rust out, diamond plate cabinets might change your point of view on having a metal cabinet that fit perfectly onto your garage.

How is it so? According to their online shopping site the said cabinets are made up of aluminum that never rust out nor corrode with time, hence a very valuable commodity that everyone should have in their own homes and offices, since it can replace wooden cabinets that were destroyed by the length of time and frequent use. More so metal cabinets can endure heavy weights that cannot be placed on wooden ones. However, it should be noted that, the said cabinets also entails some very high price tags ranging from almost a hundred dollars to even a thousand dollars. But if your into quality rather than the price, then I suggest you stop over their site, have a look what will suit your taste and purchase it, since not all the time you can find something that is sturdy and with added features.

slipping moment



BLAG!

It's the only thing that I heard after I slipped directly to the floor, and now...

OUCH!

It hurts! It really hurts. I do hope nothing is fractured or damaged within my right arm, specifically my elbow, because I think it endured most of my weight as I slipped directly into the shiny floor.

Lesson learned: Never walk on shiny floors with damp feet, and better wear rubber slippers. Hay, why did I forget to wear my slippers at night while traversing the living room going directly to the scary spot the washroom, toilet or comfort room, whatever it is called!

opportunity missed again!

Why do I find it hard to grab the opportunities being posted for Tuesday in the affiliate program that I belong to? Even if I tried my best to fearlessly be online for almost the entire day I always finds most of them taken and reserved by other members. Does that mean that better luck next time again?

Gosh... next week will be another week and another set of opportunities will be held up for grabs, and I hope that maybe I will be lucky enough to be one of the few who will have the said opportunity! I really needed to try my best from now on...

shoe sole damaged by cockroach!

I don't know if you're going to believe it or not, but the soles of my shoes, instead of the usual being worn out due to excessive friction to the ground, was eaten by hungry little creatures called cockroach! I never thought that cockroaches could eat synthetic rubber, but I know they feed most of the time in the crayons lying somewhere in the ground if it was left there by my beloved young brother. Since, once I pick them up after a day or so of finding the said crayons there were like little bites somewhere in the exposed parts of it. But to synthetic rubber used as soles of the shoes? It's really unbelievable.

Just imagine how shocked I was when I had already worn the shoes and was briskly walking inside the house to gather most of the things I needed when all of a sudden the right sole of the shoes was left lying in the spot I had walked on! What's really weird was that the damage cannot be seen from the outside of the soles, but instead from the inside.

Yes, I know we do have a lot of cockroaches coming from the outside of the house. Even if you cleaned the house fervently and used a lot of insecticides that really doesn't seem to kill foreign, neighborhood cockroaches, that scampers away exiting the house, they just keeps on coming back. So now, the collateral damage it brought - just eaten out the soles of my shoes. Wait till you see the damage it caused to it even if I really took care of it properly!

Now I'm thinking of buying another pair because the shoes are really unwearable, and I'm guessing that even Mr. Quickie has no option yet on how it will fix the said soles instead it might just say that I need to buy a new one.

ZTE Broadband; what's the deal?

This had been the issue since the past weeks and I can't help myself from stating my opinion here. It seemed that the infamous country, the Republic of the Philippines, is yet again dragged into another catastrophic situation by the officials that was governing it. How come I said so? As the senate inquiry of the infamous country progresses, it was found out that the said broadband deal that would connect all of the major government firms was over-priced by more than a hundred million dollars!

Where in God's grace would the Philippine government get a huge amount of money amounting to more than 300 million dollars (read news here) for the said project, when it's still under fiscal crisis for the debts made previously were still unpaid up to now! You can just imagine that even the unborn residents of the infamous country, the one's still in the process of being sperminated, already had huge amount of debt on their shoulders. Even if the country exports more domestic helpers, it isn't enough to satisfy the GNP (Gross National Product) and GDP (Gross Domestic Product) of the said infamous country because half of the entire national budget would just end up in paying off national debts previously incurred, and one-fourth of the said budget will end up in the pockets of the so-called corrupt officials. So how in the world are they going to facilitate the country with a tight budget? Pass all of the expenses to the poor majority?

Gosh! Why in the world does Philippine Government officials so corrupt? Didn't they know that instead of making the lives of the whole community better they're making it even worst! I just can't comprehend why they need to over-price the said project, and ask a broadband company, that had prevalent criminal issues, according to Sen. Lacson in other countries, instead of choosing capable local companies that had also expertise in the said project at a cheaper cost.

Beautiful Girls: National Craze?

I have no idea when this song was released internationally, but it appeared that it became a wide hit already in this infamous country. The said song, Beautiful Girls sang by no other than Sean Kingston and with a remake by singer Jojo became an instant craze that every one have both versions in either their websites, cellphones or even Ipods.

But what's with the song anyway? The song just emphasizes that "cool girls" are not compatible with not so-cool guys.

You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over


Isn't that what is called discrimination in a slight sense? What I mean is that, people can have their free choice on whom to love and give their affection to, and that it's their prerogative. However isn't that so lame if someone you really like just makes a fool of you and play around with your feelings? And isn't that what the whole song was about, a no so-cool guy played around until he lost his own sanity?

It's just so weird because I can't comprehend why a lot of people enjoys listening to the said song when it fact it doesn't reflect any social issue, instead it just reflects how some stupid guy fell in love with girl that would not reciprocate the feelings he's expressing.

Knights of Columbus: HOME WRECKERS!

Yes, read it right - HOME WRECKERS!

Much to my dismay but that is true. Instead of the spiritual formation that should be promulgated within and outside of the said group, lies, hearsay and addiction are the ones being evangelized!

What do you expect if that became the core of your familial affairs? Definitely instead of a strong communal bond within your family and the community you belong, disintegration occurs. It's like your family is a fragile thing easily breakable or better yet a hollowed wood too brittle to last to long enough to hold foundation.

I just don't know why our family ended up in this state. Who ever recruited my father to that rotten group; curse him for ruining our placid and harmonious lives! I shall never forget all this things, never in my entire living life!

I shall never forget how each and every ROTTEN member of the said organization who had influenced my father so badly, to ever tell lies to us their own family. I shall never forget how they influenced him to act against his will without thinking that his own family is at stake. I shall never forget how they all became HYPOCRITES who wears facades in order to hide their ROTTEN, and FILTHY state. I shall never forget how they learned to teach my father to blame us their family, instead of blaming those who had influenced him wrongly!

I shall never forget ALL THESE... NEVER!!!
