Pursuit of HappYness--Character reaction

This is the Reaction Paper I pass to my bubbly instructor in Computer Subject.. well, bubbly because he likes and loves to bubble.. hahaha.. intentionally and accidentally.. hahahaha... Peace to you Sir!... Even bubbly, he is a good conversationalist also.. hehehe... I don't want to make pa sip sip.. (it's not my attitude) but I like the way he is.. maybe because I've been surrounded by more civilised people JOKE! maybe because people around me at home are more serious..!
Thanks to that Sir also coz he made me become a blog maker! toinkzzz.. he told me that he likes the reaction paper and he gave it PERFECT! as a grade... Here.. read it and e the judge, just feel free to comment of it's not good for you.. (I dont care though) hahahaha,,,, peace!!!!


People succeed in life because they are convinced they can. They believe in themselves, in their abilities and potentials but they also recognize their weaknesses and limitations. As the saying goes, "What we think, we feel, what we feel, we act". Think that you are capable and you will feel confident and act confidently.

In the movie THE PURSUIT OF HAPPYNESS, Chris Gardner has a high self confidence and is determined to get what he wants and to live by what he believes in. he entails courage to take risks without fear or failure. He is a positive thinker and always receptive in learning his own mistakes. He has a low education, denies himself and because of his fear to reveal his weaknesses, he covers up by himself. because of that fear to reveal his weaknesses, he covers up by showing off his knowledge through arguments or by monopolizing a conversation.

He believes in his capacities and iner strengths. Being left alone by his wife on taking care of their son, he never give up because of the affirmative affirmations he nurtured about himself and does not allow unpleasant events or negative responses from others to ruin his sense of worth and value. I beleive that the gospel-oriented people and especially the Reverend has a contributory factor on Chris' confidence and to successfully achieve his goals. He does not easily gives up when faced with challenges and difficult situations.

As the reverend in th gospel-oriented church service once said "The important thing about that freedom train, is its got to climb mountains. We all have to climb mountains, you know, mountains that go way up high, and mountains that go dep down low. Yes we know that those mountains are, here at glide. we sing about them". dreams and goals in life are mountains that a person climb. You can't reach your goals without hardwork, perseverance, confidence and self-esteem. However, even how high those mountains are, a person cannot reach it if he lacks ability to reach it out. If he is not believing in his worth, capabilities and talents.

Chris Gardner knows his worth and value, in times of sadness, in times of despair, he got the chance to stand up and boost his confidence. One factor for that awakening of hope to Chris Gardner is the words of the Reverend in the church service. He knows that he has the courage and determination to get what he want and to take the isks. He didnt just go deep down the mountain yet he stood up and climb the peak of the rocky mountain. Now he can tell the words " I love my past, I love my present. Im not ashamed of what I've had and Im not sad because I have it no longer".

luvlyf...


LOVELIFE!!!!
Who are they?
We don't have a picture na magkasama talaga kami na kami lang... We have some pero we're in a group... Why? Ewan ko, Ayaw nya.. hehehe...
The weird thing is.. ayaw nya kasi daw Malas! I don't knw if it's true but he believes in superstitious beliefs.. Even his parents are big fans of superstitions.. Don't know!
Their MOTTO? It's better to believe than not.. wala naman daw mawawala kung maniniwala tayo sa mga sabi-sabi.. Somehow it's true, but nowadays, di na uso yun.. Culture is culture.. Tradition is tradition.. Olds are olds.. The world is changing!!!!!!
LOve is hard to define that's always been heard..
Some says, Love is like flowers that blooms forever?-- hmmm... di yata.. may flower din namang namamatay ahh..
Other says, Love is like river that flows forever?-- hmmm... nararyme naman ang saying, but natutuyo din naman ang river ahh.. lalo na kapag mainit na mainit...
Sabi nila, Love is in the air..-- hmmm... pano nila nakikita eh, di nga makita ang air diba?
Basta for me>? LOVE IS COMPLICATED AND HARD TO DEFINE...
Siguro kanya kanya ang tao sa pagdedefine ng pagmamahal subalit datapwat ngunit.. mahirap lamang itong iexplain.. kasi kanya kanyang pagtingin ang tao sa pag-ibig.. merong masaya at kunwa'y nasa ibabaw ng alapaap kung magmahal.. meron din namang mapagbigay at lahat nalang kahit nag iisang piso sa bulsa ay ibibigay pa sa taong mahal.. meron rin namang taong kung magmahal na kunwa'y nagmamahal ng tapat yun pala ay, naglalao lang.... meron din namang totohanan...
Ang LOve dumadating lang at di mo kailangang hanapin.. It comes in the right place and right TIMING!!
Teka, bakit ba nagkukwento ako tungkol sa love?
Well, let me try to share my own love story...
Have you ever been in love?
Ako.. OO!!! napakalaki at napakalakas na OO!!!
Two times akong nagmahal.. este.. UMIBIG!
Sa first ko, he was a guy na mabait, mapagmahal, may itsura, wise, matangkad, kaso habulin ng chicks! He's a friend, he's a neighbor, he's my brother's kaberks.. We lasted for almost a year... But!! iniwan nya ako...
Ano name nya?--- nakalimutan ko.. (i dont want to mention his name na)
Pano nya ako niligawan?--- well, uso na kasi ang text, he texted me kung pwede ba sya manligaw and I said YES! Then, nung magkita kami, He talked to me personally na.. tapos after three months, sinagot ko sya kasi ok naman sya, ok naman family nya, wise naman sya, close sila ng kuya ko, close sila ng mga cousins ko and titos ko.. so OK!
nanligaw sya thru chocolate??? NO... Flowers??? NO.. Nanligaw sya thru candies... hehehehe,, nadale ako sa candies.. Maxx na yellow... hahahahah!!!!!
Well.. bait bait nya, matalino sa Math.. eh medyo mahina pa naman ako sa Matematika, Plus points yun diva.,,
We have our good relationship.. my one and only living brother knows that! kaso ang BIG PROBLeM>>> di alam ng nanay at tatay ko na may bf ako!!! toinkzz...
Through my innocence, naloko ako ng loko.. you know.. something happened.. naglaro kami ng bahay bahayan.. when the game was over? TALO AKO!!! why? kasi nasira yung bahay ko!!
At INIWAN AKO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yun yung masakit sa pagiging inosente sa panahon ngayon, kasi madali kang maloloko.. Well, may war na naganap between my camp and his.. Yung brother ko na nagtiwala sa kanya jinumbag sya.. yung bestfriend ko na friend nya rn sinapak at inira yung bahay nya.. wahahaha,,, (nakuha ba namang tumawa sa kabila ng lahat!!!).. yung tatay ko? di ako pinansin ng two weeks,, wala akong narinig maski Hi sa kanya.. yung nanay ko? walang imik kahit hello.. yung kuya ko? meron... "te ano naintuan kaw? patyon ko ra!!.. Seeee?????? naku.. war as in war.. palabasan ng guns and toses.. ng armalite, ng de bomba, ng granada, ng tangke de giera.. lahat lahat na.. I was really frightened dahil sa nakita ko yung mga armas.. yung mga tito ko nagwala,, nasira yung kabinet ko sa kwarto.. see? 2 lang kasi kaming babae sa apo ng lola ko na nadito sa pilipinas tapos, LAON pa yung isa.. as in malapit na syang lumampas sa calendar.. thn ito pa nangyari sa akin!!! Hayun.. in searching for that guy.,,,? muntikan na mamatay.. puro pasa, naawa ako pero napalitan din ng galit kasi.. nung nanganak na ako.. text sya.. "ano bata mo tawo man?" Isn't it great!!??? pinagmamalaki ko yung text nya.. of course beautious yung anak ko noh..
After ko manganak ng baby girl.. naging happy and tight yung relationship ko with my bro, nanay, tatay, lola, lolo, tito, tita, cousins...
They continued to be very protective sa akin.. And may friends din ako na very protective..Sya yung taong pinababayaan ko nalang kung saan saan man sya mapadpad.. dahil sa experience ko nun, di na ako muling umasa sa bestfriend ko.. sya yung guy sa taas.. chick boy din yan kasi eh.. tapos maraming babae naghahabol, ewan ko ba..!! di naman masyadong gwapito, matigas naman minsan ang ulo, pero mahal ko eh... HAAyyy...
Ang masamang revelation? pareho sila ng aplyido ng ex ko!!! yung tatay ng ank ko... yun nga lang sabi nga nya, sya ang tatay ng ank ko... inaako ba naman kahit di kanya... haaayyy.. haba ng hair ng lola mo..
There were times na sinasabi ko sa sarili ko,siguro nagalalarolang tong taong to.. kasi I really know him eh.. every since mga bata pa kami he's kinda really chick boy..maraming babae kumbaga..pero ewan ko ba.. imnot so sure of him pero so far di pa naman sya nagsinungaling..ifmerong mga textmates or mga babae sa paligid nagkukwento naman ng tama... tapos there was a tym na pinakilala nya sa akin yung naging gf nya... then hayu oklang naman sa akin ksi i understand..

and for me its better na open yung guy.. i know na minsan masakit but i trust him naman.. kesa naman like ng mga boys jan sa paligd na nangangako eh napapako naman,, I've learned my lesson na kaya..now? i have to trust someone who is trusting me.. and so far, we're good..

oktubre bente siete

Oktubre 27!

Special day for my special someone..
It's his birthday!
What would me my gift? That's the first question that comes...
Then, how would I approach and greet him?
How would I approach his sisters?
Huhuhuhu....
Kawawa naman ako!

Solusyon ko? Text ko nanay ko.. hehehe..

Me-Nay! Anu i gift ko?
Nay- Bisan anu lang jan ah.. Importante manlang ka greet kaw! kag isa pa "your presence would be the best gift he could receive"
Me- Pru.. pano nga presence kun indi ko pagpasugtan makadto to?
Nay- lecensya ti pormal eh...
Me- Ok I got it! Thanks...

See? That's my Nanay! Best Nanay.. In times of walang laman ang utak ko.. she's there to fill it! hehehe...

I was very very nervous para mag ask ng permiso sa Tita ko na pumunta sa Miag-ao to celebrate with my Dudeng Kandeng (that's what i call him)...
To my surprise! Sya pa gumising sa akin early in the morning of October 27.. hehehe...

Me - sleeping still at 7:15 a.m....
Tita- Ne! Oy! Bangon kag maghimus run!
Me- (confused.. why?) Ha? Naga ta haw?
Tita- Ay! may okasyon indi ka mapa miag-ao haw? Himus run hay gahulat ang driver!
Me- ok ta ok ta! (bilis ng kilos ko huh!? ano nakain nun? ginising ako?)

habang nasa byahe... toinkzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZzzzzZZzzz... TULOG AKO!


I was really surprised that morning sa ginawa nya.. Kahit ka 100 times na pag iisip ko kung pano mag ask ng permiso never nahagip ng mind ko na sya mismo magsasabi sa akin! WHAT A MIRACLE!!!

So I get up! I was tensed.. GOD!!! Lahat ng sisters nya present, pwera lng sa only bro na 2 years ng nawawala... (seaman kasi, kaso nawawala)
Simple lang attire ko.. nakajeans, sleeveless shirt and rubber shoes..hehehe..,,.
Dumaan kami sa lubak lubak na road patungong Dawog! hay naku.. nasayang yung pagpaganda ko ng hair ko.. kasi pagdating dun.. puro alikabok! toinkzzz....
yung shoes ko puro putik!!! toinkzzz....
yung likod ko pawisan.. toinkzzz...

(CP vibrate)

deng- ne! where ka na?
me- deng.. ja sa karsada.. huya ko... duro lao ko!
deng- diretso lang ja sa balay!
me- baw ah.. raku gani lao ko mung...!!!!!
deng- ok.. abaton ta kaw!
me- ha? di lang.. atindira lang jan mga bisita mo..
deng- ay ah.. dali lang..

after 10 minutes.. he's coming na.. toinkzz... nakakahiya yung ayos ko.. mukha akong bruha!
Aba aba.. walang patawad.. tinawanan pa ako ng tinawanan...
huhuhuhu.. parang iiyak na ako that time..

tHEN bahala na.. sumama nalang ako..
I was really nervous.. first time kasi na magkakasama sama yung magkakapatid eh... Baka snob nila ako..

Pero! Iba ang expectations ko..

It's his bday.. but parang pati ako may okasyon...
todo alalay sila... giving me foods.. giving me the warm welcome.. ang saya ng feeling.. nawala lahat ng stress ko...!

yun yung isang bagay na gusto kong mafeel in my life.. yung magaan na feeling.. yung feeling na ni minsan di ka OP.. basta kakaiba talaga.. nabawi ko lahat ng pagod ko from school, from work, from lahat lahat na...

pagkagabi ng nung plano ko na umuwi, di ako pinayagan ng tatay ni deng.. sabi nya dun nalang daw ako matulog, but I said "No'', kasi ayoko ng issues, maraming chismosa sa paligid eh.. ayokong mahurt yung family ko sa kung ano mang mga nega na maaari nilang marinig, so i decided na matulog nalang sa resthouse namin malapit lapit lang naman mga 600 meters away from deng's house..

before nya ako hinatid sa resthouse, syempre nagdisco muna kami.. nagkausap din kami ng whole family nya..

and gosh! I never expected that to happen.. yung mag oopen ka sa family nya.. on how you love their one and only bunso.. yung tipong pinafeel nila sa akin na anak nila ako.. yung tipong kapatid nila ako.. as in, i cried that night dahil lang sa pagkabuti nila..

(sa mind ko, baka palabas lang lahat ng ito, but.. hindi .. kasi it's true talaga)

heartsick for a reason

Everything has a purpose.. and I do believe.. I’ve been hurted for once in my life and the pain covered my whole heart for almost a year.. I never listened to other people, even to my parents, aunts, uncles, friends.. I just listened to my heart.. But I was really wrong.. I realized that friends and family are made to make you a better person.. Would you agree with my statement? Well I don’t care.. it’s my own statement.. you can’t change it though..haha!!!!
“A friend is one who walks in when others walk out.”Is this true? What do you think with this quote?Soothing words from friends, heal broken hearts and mend relationships.Before the heartbreaking moments was done, I was too confident of myself.. believing in my worth.. I thought nobody can teach me.. nobody can ever change myself and my life.. It’s me.. It’s me.. I believe in myself… I have lots of friends… They are keeping my company.. Asking for my suggestions in all matters including love.. Of course with much a do.. I am very open and quick on giving my responses.. I give recommendations and comments about their situations even though I didn’t encounter such situations, I just read it through my mind and heard it from others.. But I was really wrong… It’s better to encounter and experience problems rather than reading or listening from others stories.
From the experiences that I have.. I’ve learned a lot.. I’ve learned that God gave me this life and gave me hard situations… for me to enjoy it and became a true person… For me to become a whole… To understand situations.. To admit own mistakes and laugh on it on my own..
Mistakes? hmmm… I’ve done zillions of mistakes in my entire life.. I can’t count my mistakes and I’ve already made my biggest mistake.. At first I felt regret on what I have done but soon I realized that God let me have that mistake for me to learn from it and for me to use that experience for the future…
TO BECOME STRONGER..
TO BE A BETTER PERSON..

true friends

Do you have TRUE FRIENDS??
what comes on your mind when you heard or read of this two words?
the one who cares or you? loves you? understands you? knows how to comfort you? the one who accompanies you all the time..? in everything you do, crimes or good? the one who will never ever hurt you?
When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving much advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a gentle and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares..
I have lots of FRIENDS.. but few are to be trusted and can be called TRUE, GENUINE and PURE..
Friends since puberty… high school friends…. college friends… I don’t trust 50% of all my friends.. only 10% maybe.. hehehe.. there are friends who are really friends when you faces them but becomes evil witches that makes you funny and bad when faces other people around..
That’s normal I think.. not all people in the world are true, not all are good, not all are genuine.. very few can be trusted!!!

Tel;- ann

Kristel Ann-- she’s my cute, talkative, cuddly daughter…

she’s my inspiration, making me smile in times of sadness. Before I sleep evry night she’s the last thing that comes to my mind.. I’ll text my nanay and ask how she is, hows my tatay and nanay.. how everything at home? I can see my parents once a week, once in 2 weeks or sometimes once a month… haaaayyyy.. Im very close to my parents that’s why I miss them almost everyday of my life.. Im just lucky not to remember them if I have lots of school stuffs to do.. There are times when I could feel loneliness.. Ill just make a call to them, then Ill be fine..
I miss the days when Tatay cooks for the family, we share our foods while watching TV, sharing daily feelings and everything that we do the whole day in school, at home and lovelife ofcourse.. ohh.. I miss it!!!
After the teary days of my life.. I learned to move on because of my tatay and nanay.. they always call me and tell me advices. I love them so much that I could say to myself, there’s nothing more valuable in the world than the love ad car that comes from my parents.. (cries) its true im crying right now!! I remember the days when tatay told me to move on, to live life happily and bear in mind that life is precious, Time is priceless.,. dont waste your tears crying for something that is not important, waste it to something that is worth crying for!! I love it!!
Let’s get bac to kristel.. she’s the one who brought back the smile on tatay and nanay’s face..
My little sunshine that makes everyone smile at home.. I love her so much!!!
