Not your ordinary cliche

Summer is hot. We are in a tropical country so it sucks. I spent my summer watching movies and when I say movies, the good ones. I'm not a jerk who just watches the latest releases and definitely I am not that kind of JERK who watches a movie because my friend says it's AWESOME. I always refer to Rotten Tomatoes and top critics. I am the type of movie fan that prefer "For a Few Dollars more" than Mission Impossible, Star Wars than Transformers, and Dawn of the Dead(1978) than Dawn of the Dead(2004). Yes, I love old films but that doesn't mean I hate modern films. I just cherish classic masterpieces. Modern films are great but most of them just wears out in a short amount of time. 

Wow! It's been a year or two since my last blog post. Well now I am bored and I'm getting back since there is an amount of streaming ideas running through my mind. I think I will start posting tomorrow. I'm just not in the mood. I'll think of another idea to post tomorrow.

For every religion, we follow certain traditions and rules that usually based on transcripts, words passed by the family, and  most importantly, holy books. For instance, Muslims have Koran, and for Christians there is The Bible. As a catholic myself, The Bible really helped me on my way through life and I think most of us really does. So basically, We are required to follow all the teachings in The Bible. Now as life being challenging, there are rules in The Bible that is very hard to follow like the popular issues of Birth Control. This issue lasts for eternity since we are living in a third world country. We have our proper reasons why families use birth control methods and their reasons were reasonable. Besides Birth Control, did you know that there are more things that the Bible fans that is unbelievable? Did you know that the Bible forbids us for wearing gold and having round haircuts? Here's a link for more details http://www.bspcn.com/2009/06/23/11-things-the-bible-bans-but-you-do-anyway/.

Now let's try to think this over and let's do a history lesson. The Bible was written by humans. It's a collection of God's teachings and stories in the past. When you are writing something freely, what's that thing that you use 80% of the time? It's Opinion. So when The Bible was written, it's possible that opinions was also shared. It doesn't end just there, it was also translated many times and we have different versions .Don't get me wrong, I'm not questioning on how The Bible was made but why does it need to have different versions? do they change things? Isn't that immoral?

So maybe your asking what my point is because you're thinking I'm getting ridiculous?  The Bible didn't came from heaven like a meteor and that's it like it's a guide on how to live life. The Bible should be absorbed but we should not take seriously every word of it. I do believe God would give us how to deal with life. If all the things in The Bible is a complete guide through life, life would be easy because you have a "Perfect Guide" making life non-sense. It's like reading poetic quotes, metaphoric statements, and meaningful songs that you should not take literally. Always look out of the box. 

If you're mind is one sided, you may think I'm a douche-bag who thinks what I say is always true and you may consider me a church hater. I'm actually a devoted Catholic myself. I praise God and Jesus and my faith is stronger than you thought. I'm just trying to be open minded and I just want to share how I see things..  As I said, you can comment anything you want and I won't take it on you. Just Remember, NOTHING is perfect. 

Last Wednesday (July 7, 2010 to be exact) was my birthday and it was my Nineteenth. Me and my college friends played basketball and we had this mini tournament going on. Anyway, One of my friend quoted "Ohh so you are 19 years old. Well I'm afraid to turn 19 because it's a year away from leaving your teenage shoes." For a few seconds, all my teenage moments flashed into my eyes like doing fast forward while watching movies. He has a point tough and my nerves struck realizing that I'm getting old. After those shit, I smiled and said "Well, it's gonna suck that I'm turning into an adult but look on the bright side, just like what Ms. Chokesondick said in South Park, Life is about moving forward". 

Life is too fast especially when you are enjoying every second of it. It will only take 365 days and I'm entering door 20, the journey to being an adult. Makes me cry thinking all of the good and bad times I had these past years and how I miss those precious memories like if they are tangible, they would be on my room standing like trophies.  All I think about now is that life is offering me more challenges that I know I could take and more memories to be cherished in the far future.

For all my friends, relatives, and my parents, I'm thanking you all for being a part of my life and definitely you played a great role in molding me into a great human being though I'm not that perfectly mold but fuck that nobody is perfect anyway. Thanks for all those people who greeted me and by the way, my wish will be more moments to spend for all my love ones. 








P.S.: Thanks God for a life that is well worth :)

Wow! it's been months since I've been here and I'm happy to be back. I won't discuss the reason because it's tragic and everyone knows it. Well anyway, I may be hurt but I know to myself that it would be healed. So for the topic I will discuss something about this degree I'm taking up so let's start shall we?

College, just hearing the word makes high school students excited and present college students puke. College and challenge just comes together just like hard bosses in video games where the defining moment of your life is on the line. In the movies, we see college as a joke era l where girls in mini skirts, party, drugs, and having a good time exist but in reality, it's the time where your nose bleeds literally. 

As a college student, I take B.S. Information and Communication Technology. I'm proud to say that I am an IT student. I know it's not Law, Nursing, Accountancy, Engineering or other courses that has "respect" spelled all over it but little do  they know how hard it is. Some think of IT as an easy course considering you just have to sit your ass on the computer the whole day so for the slacker , they think this course would be easy though at first I taught this also would be easy but holy sh!t!! It's totally hard. When people I asked about your course and you said IT, they won't be impress though I can't blame them because IT became popular just about less than 10 years ago I think (correct me If am wrong). In a time where technology is used every microsecond of our time, there's no doubt that IT jobs are spreading like a virus. 

So for all High School Students out there, all I can say that IT is not a 'just' course. If you think you have good analytic knowledge then maybe this course is for you. Your love for video games doesn't help on doing well though it can somewhat be helpful. Information technology is a 4 year course educationally but it's a lifetime study in reality because technology tend to update every second. Programming is fun, making animations is cool but Creating systems is like playing Nintendo Wii with your mouth while balancing a printer in your head.




Dedicated to all High school students who would take up IT and of course my Beloved section BIT, we're going to make this. We are all graduating 2012!!... 

I know my title seems to be weird, but of course I assure you that after you read this whole thing, you will understand what I am talking about.


Me, You, and Everyone, what is the similarity? Yes I know it's all pronouns don't be a douche bag. The similarity is  they are referring to People. Yes that simple. I made a post about how people differ? Now I am going to discuss our similarities. We may all be different in characteristics, talents, personalities, and etc. but of course there are similarities in a group of people and I'm talking about millions of group. 

Most of the time, we felt sad seeing our friends walloping in pain. Of course they are those people you shared happy moments so it's a bad image to see your friends crying but despite that negative picture, Aren't you happy that you have friends who care for people? they cry because they care and they love. A simple example will be a breakup. Imagine if your friend just doesn't care about the incident. Think of your friend saying "Who cares? there are a lot of girls out there?". It may seem convincing that he's not suffering which is good on your part but the fact that he/she didn't care is definitely not nice. In life, sometimes our negative aspects produce a positive image of ourselves. The twists in life are so unique that it's so interesting to scan. The common adjectives that we describe to people are good and bad. Schindler, Martin Luther King Jr., Mahatma Gandhi, and  Andres Bonifacio are all good people. Hitler, Stallin, Mao Zedong, Osama Bin Laden, and Idi Amin are bad people. That's our common judgment. What we don't know is that a human being is not a person if he is good or bad alone. Good People have bad characteristics too and Bad People have good beliefs too. Hitler may be an abomination but he did that because of his bad experiences when he was a kid and he CARES. Though he did resort to a bad idea which is revenge, at least there is this small light of goodness inside him. Thomas Aquinas, the great Italian Priest, was once a womanizer.


I just want to point out that a normal human being should not be judged by good or bad hence "nobody is perfect". People have good AND bad characteristics. It's just the matter of amount of good and bad that we call a person good or bad which results to a worse situations like Discrimination and Prejudice. People are like batteries, they're consist of positive and negative charge (Sorry for being corny :p). Let's stop the discrimination of good and bad people! Let's help those people who are more of a bad than good to raise their good side :)

May 10, 2010 will be the election date and a new president will sit at the throne of Malacanang. As I see it, no matter who's your bet, no one will bring the Philippine economy out of poverty. It's just a matter of who will slow down the poverty in this country. You see, there are too many politicians competing for President. That image just shows how hungry the filipinos are for power. In America, there only exist two political parties and if their dictators told them they are not capable of being in the position, then they accept the truth. Here, the truth is bullshit. 


It brings my piss to a boil when people are always complaining how the government is corrupt and shit. They always blame the government because they are poor or in filipino saying "Isang kahig isang tuka". From everybody's prospective, yes it is true that government officials are corrupt and here is the transitive logic.

Government= Corrupt
Government=Filipinos
therefore
Filipinos = Corrupt


So you get that? You can't blame the government because we and I mean we are all products of corruption.
Each of us had made a mistake of being corrupt. Just for being an ordinary student here is an example. Remember those school fees? like your field trip fees? it may cost up to 700 but instead you will ask your parents it's 1000. Plain and simple and I tell you corruption grows faster than mongo seeds.


I just hope that the next president will be less corrupt (because I know whoever takes position will still fuck the government) and people will improve themselves to become a true filipino. I don't disgust the filipinos and obviously I am a Filipino Myself. I just don't want bad things to happen. Rememeber the Maguindanao Massacre? Hunger for Power can kill. This weapon is more fatal than guns and daggers because it destroys our inner self. Just like Corruption.


Core + Rupure = Corrupt.


Core being the center it means referring to our hearts. Rupture meaning an explosion. hence Corruption, a heart explosion.
