Alright so I'm thrilled with the Idea of going to Binondo Manila this saturday to find and raid this fabric store called SUPERIOR FABRIC SALES located at 948 Soler Street Binondo 1000 Manila Metro Manila. you see the cute thing about binondo is the community itself, small, you can walk around and just stumble on some good find and good food after a long walk.
I've been to Binondo twice, once with my sister and the 2nd time was by my self when I went to get a lamp for the Apt. w/c by the way up until today hasn't been installed. anyway, yes, so this time I'm going back to do "tela" shopping :-)
I'd probaby bring Zai or Marvin with me, or ask Steve to join if he wants to. I'm not sure if he has the stamina to do these things with me because they say guys hates shopping with ladies.... for one, I remember talking to him about the articles I read about guys and he says well it doesn't apply to him, so we'll see if he could survive shopping, walking, in Binondo with me and my Girlfrand! Oh I forgot he has work. bummer, I'd probably see him after. and a confirmation came through text that Zai has work too, so I guess I'm left with Marvin should my dear be up for it, if not, I'd probably go with my sister or just by myself again haha! anyhoo, not a problem there :-)
After the Tela Hunting, I intend to schedule to meet with my Modista for the pegs.
now this is where my sweet torture begin because I really want to learn how to sew I never learned how to, that's why I envy those who can sew and make fabulous creation out of good quality fabrics.believe me they are more than just talented individual who can out things together like that! I love sewers and modistas, they are the angels of the fashion world bless them for their gift!
Steve is my love, he makes me laugh so hard with out him having to try! like, last night, I wrote the buchikik lyrics down on a piece of paper and made him read it.... haha! really cute! priceless :-)

MIND SET!
check!
Amazing because MAGIS has been a discipline taught to us by the Jesuits. MAGIS is a phrase means "more" and this phrase has been very popular in the Ateneo culture and the entire community as well. it sought me through the stress and the pressure of having to complete my thesis study and other many form of pressure that comes with it.
Magis according to the Jesuits is the yardstick of Ignatius was always to undertake that which was ‘the better choice’, ‘the more effective enterprise’, ‘the more widely influential’. ‘meeting the greater need’, not simply because such a course was harder, but because it would yield ‘the greater good’ or be more loving. ...
We at the Ateneo was taught seek for the greater glory of things, first through the Kingdom of God (Ad Majorem dei gloriam) and for God to be the light (Lux in Domino) It is one of those school of thought I brought along with me after leaving the comfort zone of my home- The Ateneo.
At this stage, because I decided to Life Hack- by this I mean to alter and break the chain cycle of my routine. to sacrifice sleep, comfort, parties, events, to achieve an end goal. what is the end goal? I want to attain Balance by means of Life hacking, distabilizing my status-quo to achieve excellent and shameless results.
I remember jokingly telling a close friend of mine the yesterday that this experience is my punishment for being reckless and lax for the past few months.
and really.
I aim to be more responsible than what I am now. I aim to practice such principle for a better belief system by working on my issues as an individual, and hopefully be a better person for my loved ones and friends too. I suppose, this will materialize once this life hack starts and I hope to be succesful on this. let's see if I'm able to conquer it. and when I do, WOW it will such an achievement and I'd probably write about it too.
and yes, There would be quite a few tabling to do.
Yes, I'm still the old friend you knew.
but this friend of yours needs a little tweaking :-)

Lately, I have been flirting with the idea of coming back and doing photo J.
I need to commit.
I
COM.....
shoot. why did I even stop.
--------
I wish I talk like a minion sometimes. you might be wondering what the hell is a minion? A minion are small, yellow, pill-shaped creatures that have one or two eyes, A rambunctious bunch of simple-minded beings. they are characters from the movie despicable me.
They choose to express themselves through actions, not words, their "language" is fairly basic, they speak in strange jabber, they don't really speak. at least, not in words human's can understand.
-----------------
blogging is healing. and it shall be this way for now.

bring down the state should we now?
On 1st May 2000, the London May Day Carnival against Capitalism, a peaceful demonstration against capitalism, turned into a riot that led to the defacing of the Cenotaph and millions of pounds worth of damage to City buildings.
Similar violence has been seen at other large-scale anti-capitalism protests, such as at the World Trade Organisation’s talks in Seattle. In these circumstances, people have come to question the rhetoric and claims of the anarchists. So is anarchism a defensible policy ? Can it be supported both in theory and in practice?
please see this link: http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/1999/jun/18/1
Anarchism is essentially a fight for human freedom. Modern states, even those which claim to be democracies, stifle their citizens with oppressive and artificial machinery such as laws and taxes. These are imposed by the people who run the state -the elites, the governing classes.
Anarchists believe it is better to live without such controls imposed by such people. This does not mean they stand for complete chaos though. they support co-operation and barter between individuals as profitable. Only without controls can humans truly live naturally and freely.
An opposing mind would say otherwise, you may say that anarchism is marked by exactly this sort of utopian, unrealistic argument. far from freeing humans, anarchy allow them to be dominated by primitive forces that a controlling state has eliminated, such as the use of physical force by the strong to oppress the weak.
As always I disagree with the this argument. Anarchists believe in a classless society. can't you see? modern democracies are divided into classes that continually fight each other. states have created barriers between men that cause hatred and misery. Anarchy removes these barriers, by removing the apparatus that makes economic subjection of others possible.
Anarchism has nothing to do with violent organisations that hijack anarchist events for their own reasons. The vast majority are peaceable protesters who would never use violence. Anarchism is a viable and fair way of life, that allows humans to live and interact naturally, without a Big Brother controlling us.

"HOTSHOT POP QUIZ"
I remember knowing a guy who loves to use this phrase : "hot shot pop quiz" to liven up a discussion or to make the exchange of text message interesting. It didn't really work, but I got used to it but never really liked it. he doesn't know. and if he came across this blog. dude, this is the most ridiculous deal breaker i have ever heard in my entire life. get a life. seriously.
wow that feels great.
wow that feels great.
Greg, you need an overhaul
This is quite interesting. if one that is not taken particularly seriously. Past suggestions to reform the Gregorian calendar have all failed in the face of tradition, convenience and apathy. Three of the most common proposals for reform are as follows:
1.The World Calendar is based on a 52-week, 364-day year, starting on Sunday, January 1st; the 365th day has no day of the week and is called ‘Year-End Day’; and in leap years a Leap-Year Day is inserted between June and July. January, April, July and October all have 31 days, and the rest 30.
2.The International Fixed Calendar divides the year into 13 months of 28 days each, with the 365th day (‘Year Day’) outside the months, and a Leap Day after June 28th in leap years. All months begin on Sundays, and the new, seventh month is known as Sol.
3.The Perpetual Calendar has four 3-month quarters, each beginning on a Monday. Like the previous two, an extra Year-End Day and Leap-Year Day are inserted.
The Gregorian Calendar has 12 months of different length (with no month being 1/12 of the year), uneven half- and quarter-years, and no standard first day of the year or of any month.
This makes financial planning in particular difficult, and public holidays are irregular. Some companies, such as Kodak, use the International Fixed Calendar to pay their employees; others work on the basis of thirteen months and give the last month’s pay as a Christmas bonus.
If and when you have the time, you will notice that the Gregorian Calendar is fixed on the starting date of 1 A.D., which has significance only for Christians as the supposed date of Christ’s birth.
Even the Christians are not united. some of the Eastern Orthodox Churches skipped the first 13days of October 1923. A standard calendar for all religions and countries makes much more sense, fixed on a starting point in history with significance for all people.
The calendar has been successfully reformed in the past. the Gregorian Calendar was only devised in 1582 (by Pope Gregory XIII). There would be a cost in reforming again, but this would be offset in the long-term by the savings due to simplification.

FUCK YOU TOO
In order to survive this world we're living in, you have to be nice. even if you really don't want to. 9 out of 10, the rest of them is doing thesame. like the moment you turn your back away from them, they'd say fuck you and stick it right up to your nose. and everytime i say something like this people think i had to much to drink or there's something wrong with me. I'm crazy too you see, just like everybody else. It's just that i have the balls to admit it. wouldn't sound right if i say i have the eggs to admit it :)
chair,table, snacks
1. Should governments prohibit logging? Yes.no.?
2. Is Anarchism a valuable political ideology?
3. Should the sale and consumption of alcohol – the world’s favourite drug – be further restricted, or even banned?
The idea is to create a discussion. I realized that these things shouldn't be posted on facebook. for some reason it doesn't stir nor get that much sensation and expected response i.e are you okay? is there something wrong? did you had too much to drink?
for the love of God. who wants to talk about these things anyway? facebook is definitely not the avenue for it. I believe, these things should be left discussed at the Podium, or, with a collective group who takes pleasure sitting on a chair, in close proximity to a table, with reasonable amount of snacks.
I miss debating. nuff said.
