Viral Examthem

Can somebody explain what "viral examthem" means?

I think we've been fooled..lol

fever to rashes...
rash to rash...
fever to fever...
whew.. unknown diagnosis!

It was first suspected that our friend has german measles... so what we did, we protected ourselves... see the picture below? We wore masks on the first day... when Erick was hospitalized. "Pag second day wla na kmi gamask..wla paki kon mlatnan ah...hehehe". Kag wala gd man!!!

We had a lot of experiences during these times... Unforgettable experiences that taught us lessons..heheh... "Bsan sang manug guwa na sa ospital damu lang gd mga circumstances ah!"

Ang mahambal ko lang, God is really good!!!

Signboard..

Are you familiar with these signs or posters?
Maybe you're wondering why I posted these on my blog... Well, nothing so special... I just got these from one of the hospitals in Iloilo. My camera phone captured these during the time when I accompanied my friend in the hospital for check up.

Little things sometimes could be useful when you have nothing to do.. especially during idle moments.

It's not worth wondering..lol!
hmmmm... just a filler :))

Trip to Igbaras w/ Rom and Ton2x

We went to Igbaras to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. We were able to unwind there even just for approximately 14 hours of stay at the place where Romeo's sister lives. Arieta family were gathered there for a "get together" (nosebleed ko sa ingles bah..wehehehe). Tonton and I were their visitors (Si Erick pa gd tani.. gling ala sya nag upod).

I must say that we enjoyed the trip to Igbaras..a lot! Romeo and I were able to laugh (out loud) when we heard Tonton's new invented words/ expressions such as: "tatlong three times", "tobrush" (toothbrush), "high-tech ang schedule" (hectic), and "12 noon ng gabi". (Peace Ton!...lol).. it was fun being with these guys (sadya gd ya!)... During the night, we had our worship... we ate peanuts, jackfruit, and many more..heheh..pahisa hisa sa iban ah... we had also our sharing (istorya kuris kuris ni Ton2x kag Roms..wahihehehe).. and most of all we prayed!

Below is a short video... ebidensya nga nakaabot kami sa Igbaras!wuhuuu..whew!

CPU Eng'g Chorale U-Day 2003 Champ

I found this video at Youtube.com.
It's nice to reminisce our Choral days in the College of Engineering (COE)..
We performed "Siyahamba" as our Optional/Chosen Piece when I was in my third year in the COE.

"Siyahamba" is an African song which means "Marching in the light of GOD"!

To God be the glory!

"Ang Pulaw"

Nagsugod ang tanan sa isa ka text message.
Sabado, alas ocho imedya sang gab-i..
bag o lang ako to tapos panglaba sang mabaton ko ang isa ka text message...
Nagtext si Romeo nga makadto ko sa CPU Promenade..

Naglakat ako pa CPU nga dala akon gitara..
Sa layo pa lang nakita ko na ang landong sang isa ka tinuga nga nagatukar flute..
Wla ko may mabatian nga sound kay gli naka earphones ako..hehe
Ginpalapitan ko si migo Romeo nga bitbit ang akon gitara...
Gapalamalhas pako.. kakapoy gd manglaba, tapos magitara pa?!..

Kag nagtukar tukar kami nga duwa..
gintext ko si erick nga makadto.. pro la pa reply..
Sang ginsita na kami sang guardya, timing man nga nagtext si Faith na makadto sa balay nila..
Mapraktis daw kanday Roms kanta para sa kasal bwas domingo sang aga...
Ginhagad ko ni Roms na malakat to eh.. huya ko magkadto pro ginpilit ya ko ;))

Sang nakaabot na kmi.. ginsumalang kami sang pagkadalagku nga mga ido.. ido de rasa!

wla lang dugay, nagtext sya nga mapasugat sa sagwa kay hadlok sya sa ido nga bago ni Paul..lol.. panigurado lang ah =)).. ginsugat sya ni Shasha...
Sang natapos na sila practice.. naglisensya kami nga malakat na..
Wla kami kabalo kon din makadto, naghambal ko sa ila nga gusto ko magbakal fruits sa Jaro Plaza...

Galakat lakat kami sa sagwa sang gulpi lang may nagtawag sa amon.
Dungan kami talikod nga tatlo.. indi namon kilala ang gapanawag.. kalayo pa abi sa ila..
Ti, nag untat kami lakat kag naghulat kon sino man ang nagtwag sa amon.. Sang lapit na kag nakilala namon ang gapanawag.. kanday Tonton lang man gli, Zkiel kg GF ni Zkiel...
Nagpuli day tonton sa ila blay kag kami dretso Jaro pra magbakal fruits..

Samtang kami nga tatlo nagalakat pakadto sa Jaro Plaza, nadumduman ko nga may ara ko ringtone nga pwede isasku sa duwa.. Ginsuguran ko kay Romeo.. gingamit ko gd ang ini nga oportunidad samtang si Erick nauna lakat sa amon.. Gin pa ring ko knu abi ang phone kag si Roms ginpasabat ko.. Siling ko sa iya nga may ara gapanawag sa akon nga di ko kilala.. kag ginsabat ni roms, abi ya kay tunay..heheh..kag nadala gid sya sa ila storyahanay.. sang mablan ya, gintry naman namon kay Erick.. hipos lang si migo Erick, tingala gd sya ngaa muna magstorya ang lalaki sa phone..akig kag gapang mulay..heheh.. Tapos nila storya, ginsugid ko na lang dayon nga, "meg, ringtone lang ni ah!". Syempre galalain ang duwa..lol!

Sang nakabot na kmi sa Jaro, nagkadto kami sa ''Cagayan" fruit stand kag nagbakal Ponkan.
Nagsiling si Roms, "maflute-flute ta bla".. gin check ko akon FIFE nga naga-angkas sa akon gitara.. Oooo.. wla na, nanghinayang man ko pro cling ko cge lang ah.. gincilingan ko pa ang duwa nga balikan ko ang ginagyan namon kay basi may nakapulot.. Sang nakita sang duwa reaksyon ko, nagsiling si Roms, "Bert, ano ang feeling sang nasaskuhan?".. Baw tonto gd, ginbalusan ya gd ko sasku..heheh.. quits na ah!

Si migo Erick nanyapon dayon sa Andoks.... Tapos niya kaon, nagdecide kami nga mapulaw na lang kay sarado namn ang boarding haus namon kag si Roms di naman makasulod sa ila Compound kay eleven ila curfew. (huh?!)

Naghapit kami sa Rose kag nagbakal ilimnon... Yakult bah!!!..

Gaulan-ulan pa kag kami nagtabok sa piyak dalan..
Nag brain storming ... kag nagdesisyon nga mapa Andoks La Paz..
Pag agi sang Jaro CPU nga jeep, kami nagsakay..
Nag abot kami sa Andoks La Paz kag didto nagtambay..

Nagitara si Erick kag kmi ni Roms gakanta... ginatulok kami sang crew kay wla kmi ka order ni isa ka manok o kon ano man da nga mbakal..
Ti. nagbakal na lang sing alang alang si Roms.. "Royal" pra di kami ma-sita sang guard!
Isa ka litro nga Rioyal ang amun gintagayan asta maaga...

Pero bag o magbuntag, nag abot ang classmate(CM) ni Roms upod ang banda nga aton ihinago sa ngalan nga COOL GRAY..
nakita nila nga dala ni Roms ang Flute kag ginpilit nga matukar sya..
Tanan nga pagdayaw amon nabatian halin sa CM ni Roms pra lang makatukar ang flutista ko nga abyan. Budlay mag huo.. ayawan sila pilit kay Roms, huya bi sya mu kag sa iya pinsar, "ginlawayan daan ni Mark ang flute kag kon basi ano pa nga masakit ang maacquire ko."...

Ginhulam sang CM ni Roms ang Flute kag sya danay nagtukar tukar.. ulihi lang sya nakabalo nga ginlawayan sang hubog ang flute...
Pero ginpilit man sa gihapon si Roms nga magtukar... in the end nagtukar si Roms kadali lang... ang title sang gintukar, "Canon in D"! Bilib gd sila kay Roms, sagad bi mu..heheh (filler lang ni ah)..

Kaagahon na, pro la pa kmi sa gihapon ginatuyo..iba gd ya basta Christian music ang nawilihan.. Ang amon ginatagay nga Royal ubos na...

Samtang kami gakinanta, may grupo sang kababainhan nga nag-abot, kagahod sa ila..heheh, kami padayon man japon sa pagkanta..
Gin tudluan ko day Roms kag Rick sang "When God is Near"...
Si Roms ang melody, si Erick bass kag ako gakanta sang tenor...

Kagahod man japon sang mga babae bsan gakaon..
gaplano na kmi malakat pro sang pagtindog namon, dayon man sila lakat..
kag nagdesiyon kami nga magbalik sa amon ginapungkuan... kami padayon sa pagkanta...

Naggwa kami kag naglakat pakadto sa blay day Romeo kay mahulam si pareng Erick plantsa.. Dedication Service na nila sa takna alas sais imedya sang aga. Nagpadayon kami lakat asta maka abot sa blay nanday Roms..

"Emo" + featured photos

Emo is a somewhat ambiguous slang term most frequently used to describe or refer to a fashion, style, or attitude linked to post-hardcore. Emo may also describe emo-music or a general emotional state (as in to "feel emo"). It is also (sometimes pejoratively) used to identify someone who fits a particular emo stereotype or category or someone who is overly-emotional.

When referring to a person's personality and attitude, most definitions of emo hold that an emo person is emotionally candid, sensitive, shy, introverted, glum, and quiet. Depressed and broken-hearted are sometimes used to describe the emo personality. Emo music and poetry contain multiple references to unrequited love, emotional and relationship problems.

By almost all current definitions, Emo clothing is characterized by tight jeans on males and females alike, long fringe (bangs) brushed to one side of the face or over one or both eyes, dyed black, straightened hair, tight t-shirts which often bear the names of rock bands (or other designed shirts), studded belts, belt buckles, canvas sneakers or skate shoes or other black shoes (often old and beaten up) and thick, black horn-rimmed glasses. Emo fashion has changed with time; early trends included haircuts similar to those worn by the Romulans and Vulcans in Star-Trek, tightly fitting sweaters, button-down shirts, and work jackets (often called gas station jackets).

THESE DAYS

these days

i seem to find

a million reasons to sit around and waste my mind

know what's being said and that's all fine
you tell me to get a life
do you understand the weight of that line?
take me for all I am

chorus:
coz I can find
my own way
big date tonight
there's no tomorrow
so let's leave it on the line
coz there's time
it's not too late
to change direction
turn your head son
so let's leave it on the line

there's something within
that's telling me that I'm just playing it too cool
i could pretty much lose everything
i never had an apple that tasted so... so sweet
given the chance, the choice
take me for all I am
(repeat chorus)

today...
i am free
free to fly
free to be what they tell me I cannot be
happy birthday to me
(repeat chorus)

is this the light at the end?
where the picture is clearer, the reception is warmer
is this the light at the end?
you're looking lot better we're happy to see ya
is this the light at the end?
you got what you came for you know where to find the door
is this the light at the end?
where the woman are hot but the beer's a lot colder
is this the light at the end?
yo momma's looking good what she doing for dinner?
is this the light at the end?
if yo momma's busy does she have a younger sister?
is this the light at the end?
you got what you came for you know where to find the door
is this the light at the end?

you know I woke up to a beautiful morning till you showed up
nauseous I was to see you standing there in my presence
but it was alright coz I'm not about to fight
when this bird wants to sing
i'll sing

gunpoint that suppose to scare me into submission
a slave to your will, fear, greed and ambition
but I'm not game...
i'm not game to your flame
there's no discussion
i will fight to the end... fighter...

PEACE MAN

I have words to say to you my friend
Is it hard to know what’s right from wrong
Have you ever felt your life so self assured
You don’t know the things that you’ve done wrong

And then we’ll say
We’ll rip out our covers
Shake the walls until they break
I’ll hold out my hand to you
Supreme love and respect

Peace man

At first it seems so daunting
How to start or how to grow
But make believe becomes a living
'cause in life, in life you will know

Peace man
