You called them to play
While I sat there patiently.
You were too busy on them
That you didn’t realize I was there.

I always see you in a distance
Amidst my poor eyesight a hindrance.
Your sight always makes my day
And that’s all worth the pay.

Ah! How I wish you could be my buddy.
You and me, in perfect harmony.
I wouldn’t ask for more
Just your one, sweet hello.

This is the color and style of my Havaianas. It has a Philippine Map cultural pin. My preferential pin is the Tarsier but unfortunately it doesn’t suit on my straps color. The Lomo Cam also caught my eye but again it really doesn’t go along with my baby blue straps and pink soles. So I made up my mind and settled on the Philippine Map and I’m really impressed on how it look on my flipflop. I also add some swarovski stone embellishments on the sides of the straps.

I bought three (3) pairs of havaianas for my sister and for my sister’s bestfriend. They both chose a blue dominant  combination. One thing I don’t like is the style and color of their bag…It’s color black with a red slipper name tag. I think it’s “baduy” and maybe because i can’t appreciate red color. <sorry, peace & no offense>

Overall, it was a nice experience and I will definitely come back next year’s MYOH 2010.

People vs. Tomolin

Criminal Law

FACTS:

On the 5th day of October, 1994, in the municipality of Paranaque, Metro Manila., Philippines accused Emarjonel Francisco Tomolin, with intent to kill, without justifiable cause, and with treachery and evident premeditation, feloniously attacked, assaulted and shoot with a gun, Rolando Virtudes and Alfredo Ayeras thereby inflicting to both victims serious and mortal gunshot wounds which caused their death.

Accused-appelant, during his testimony, admitted shooting Rolando and Alfredo, but claimed self-defense. He claimed that at around 12:45 AM, Tomolin approached the front gate of the building to turn over the watchman’s clock to Alfredo. He alleged that Alfredo and Rolando directed insulting words at him, and Rolando even poked his gun against his chest. Rolando also slapped accused-appellant and tried to grab his service firearm. They both grappled for the gun, and in the ensuing struggle, he shot Rolando. After shooting Rolando, Alfredo tried to grab his hand and after a brief struggle he shot Alfredo.

Narciso Bistel however, also with the victims during the incident, belied the testimony of Tomolin. He testified that accused-appelant shot Rolando at his back while the latter was seated and writing on the logbook and Alfredo while his back was faced against the accused-appelant.

Medico Legal findings matched with the testimony of Narciso Bistel upon examination of the gunshot wounds.

ISSUE:

Whether or not self-defense was properly invoked in this case.

RESOLUTION:

Self Defense was not properly invoked in this case because of the wanting of the first requisite of self defense which is unlawful aggression, an actual, sudden and unexpected attack or imminent danger on the life and limb of the person defending himself.

2. I’m dying to upgrade my PSP 2000 to PSP Go. I supposed I’ll be a proud owner of that gadget this November 2009.

3. I want a pair of IPANEMA Premium & Gisele Bunchen Sand Collection. I bought a GRENDHA sandal last week and I love the fit and it looks good on my feet. Maybe an Ipanema Flipflop will add to my collection.

4. We just bought a new XBOX 360 week ago and new Samsung HDTV but my boyfriend is the only one loving the whole thing because he loves to play RPG games. What I’m thinking is…I want a LIPS Game with the microphone or a guitar in XBox used to play in Rockband. So that, I’ll be having a good time too with the kind of game i like.

5. Maybe a driving lesson will do. Although this is not a material thing but it’s a lot of help knowing how to drive a car.

What’s your wishlist or your plans for this coming Christmas? They say if you want a thing really bad, you must have to write it so that it will come true and if they come true don’t forget to say “Thanks” to “Him” for the blessings you’ve received.

“Kung dalawa ang mahal mo, piliin mo yung pangalawa. Kasi hindi ka naman magmamahal ng iba kung mahal mo talaga yung una.”

“Huwag mong bitawan ang bagay na hindi mo kayang makitang hawakan ng iba.”

“Huwag mong hawakan kung alam mong bibitawan mo lang.”

“Huwag na huwag ka hahawak kapag alam mong may hawak ka na.”

“Pag may mahal ka at ayaw sayo, hayaan mo. Malay mo sa mga susunod na
araw ayaw mo na din sa kanya, naunahan ka lang.”

“Pag hindi ka mahal ng mahal mo wag ka magreklamo. Kasi may mga tao rin
na di mo mahal pero mahal ka. Kaya quits lang.”

“hinahanap mo nga ba ako o ang kawalan ko?”

“ayokong nasasanay sa mga bagay na pwede namang wala sa buhay ko “

“Lahat naman ng tao sumeseryoso pagtinamaan ng pagmamahal. Yun nga lang, hindi lahat matibay para sa temptasyon.”

“Gamitin ang puso para alagaan ang taong malapit sayo. Gamitin ang utak para alagaan ang sarili mo.”

“Hiwalayan na kung di ka na masaya. Walang gamot sa tanga kundi pagkukusa.”

I’m really, very foolish
I know of no one other than you
you’re looking at someone else
yet you have no idea of my feelings like this

I won’t be in your days
I won’t be in the memories either, however
only you, I looked only at you
and the tears keep coming

As i watch you walking past, I’m still happy
even yet you still don’t know my heart
I should stop this and go

I really want to see the day
I’m withstanding the pain each day
“I love you” is playing on my lips
Alone once again, crying for you
alone once again, missing for you
Baby, I love you, I’m wiating for you

I won’t be in your days
I won’t be remembered either, however
only you, I looked only at you
I’m making memories alone

Loving you is like having a beautiful wound
I look at your pretty smile also
but I cannot laugh with you

I’m thinking about you so much everyday
my heart is hurting in all these sad days
‘I want to see you’ is playing on my lips
alone once again, crying for you
alone once again, missing for you
Baby, i’m waiting for you, I love you

bye bye, never say goodbye
even though I cannot hold you like this
I need you, I cannot say anything more, I want you
I keep on hoping too, I’ll keep hoping….

I really want to see the day
I’m withstanding the pain each day
“I love you” is playing on my lips
Alone once again, crying for you

I’m thinking about you so much everyday
my heart is hurting in all these sad days
‘I want to see you’ is playing on my lips
alone once again, crying for you
alone once again, missing for you
Baby, i’m waiting for you, I love you

Michael had been deprived of his childhood and we cannot blame him for acting like a kid. He did not enjoy his childhood like all other kids do. At his early age at 4, he was already performing on stage together with his brothers. After reading his life story, I noticed that almost 70% of his profits goes to charity. My point here is please refrain or even stop from judging Michael Jackson. Make sure to look after your self first before saying anything evil on that person without digging deeper into his life.

This is Bruno, a typical Philippine house dog. Oftentimes Philippine dogs are called “Askal” from the word “Asong Kalye” which means “Dogs from the Streets”. These poor animals are often killed and made as “pulutan” or foods eaten while drinking beers or rhum by some bystanders (those who don’t have a regular jobs and are fond of drinking liquor beside the streets) or whom they called as “Istambays” . These heartless people doesn’t take any doubt of killing these dogs inorder to get something to eat and some of them were slaughtered only for the curiosity of tasting dog meat. But Bruno here is a good and hardworking dog. Just like any other dog, he is still considered as  “Man’s Best Friend” . Unlike imported bred dogs, Bruno here is low - maintenance and can eat leftover foods but not stale foods. Bruno also recognizes easily family members and can sniff out bad people. Just don’t offend this kind of dog because they surely bite if they don’t know you but so far it really depends on the owners training. Philippine dogs are mostly mix bred and it’s hard to point out whose the real bred. The message what I’m supposed to share here is to love animals no matter wha t they are and where they come from- Imported or Local bred they are still creatures made by God.

Stop Killing Askals! May the Philippine Legislators impose a more strict law on this. May this article open up the minds of those dogmeat-eating bastards.
