To Barangay Ginebra San Miguel:

Hi Ginebra! Andito na naman tayoo, medyo do or die game tayo bukas. Hehe. Alam ko namang sanay na tayo d'yan tsaka ganito rin tayo nung last conference, yung nasa bingit bingit lang yung peg natin. Bukas, kailangan talagang galingan n'yo, lalo pa't lalaro na si Japeth! Sa wakas, medyo okay na yung front court natin, nakakapaglaro na si Kerby (The Rim Protectoooooor) tsaka si Japeth. 

Hindi ko alam kung paano maglaro ngayon yung bagong import ng TNT pero nabalitaan ko medyo parang si Tony Mitchell s'ya pero magaling sa depensa. Kaya mga import defenders, dapat mas tight and depensa kay Fells. Sa mga guards naman natin, wala naman akong marereklamo. Lahat nang assist nilalabas ni LA (sayang lang na-foul out s'ya last game), Jayjay at ni MC47, tapos si Little Robi/Robbie nakapagshare din ng points. Sa mga forwards natin, wala rin talaga naman akong masabi, nagiimprove naman every ball game eh. 

Hindi ko nga talaga alam kung bakit tayo natatalo, pero sana bukas manalo tayo, kahit Petron yung makakaharap natin sa QFinals, kiber muna yon. Ang isipin natin ay ang laro bukas ha? 

Kaya yan at kakayanin 'to mga sir! Tiwala at kapit lang! Darating din ang Good News! 

Love lots, 

KC;)

FEU VS. DLSU Battle for 2nd Place (Post game reaction)

Let me clear this: I am fan of FEU so expect me to be bias here. :)))))))

(c) ph.yahoo.com

What went wrong?

We all know that the FEU is number one in terms of 3 point percentage (which is around 28%) and in this ballgame, they only made 5 out of 34 shots. It was like the ring did not like the 3 points of FEU or something. 

I think the 2-3 zone defense really worked at the paint for us but the downside of having a 2-3 zone defense is, it will be harder for the guards to contest more outside shots from the opposing team and that's what happen. DLSU will always locate for their open shooter especially LA "Threevilla", he just made 6 out of his 11 three point attempts. (His' beyond the arc conversions are bigger than to FEU team as a whole)

For me, playing against La Salle is more difficult on our part because we don't have the strongest of the centers in the UAAP, yes we got 2 imports, Hargrove and Sentchu but Hargrove is more of a PG or SG (according to him, because in the States, his natural position is 1 or 2) and Sentchu really needs to train more to somehow match the other import-centers in the UAAP. Also, we are a guard oriented team, we don't rely much on our centers. Unfortunately, Coach Juno pulled his Twin Towers when FEU was trying to make a run at the end of the 3rd quarter.

Well, FEU still has another game to try to win against DLSU because there is no other game to win but that ballgame obviously. We are on the twice to win disadvantage and the FEU team must find solutions to their poor scoring especially in the Caidic country.

I will still b3lieve!

Hi FEU Cheering Squad! Well, this is my sort of love letter to you *wenk wenk wenk* :)

Wednesday yun ng hapon, uwian na namin. Wala naman kaming magawa, naisipan naming tumambay. May isa kaming kaibigan na nagsabi na baka gusto naming makita yung practice n'yo ng cheerdance. Natuwa ang puso ko, kaya kahit mag-intay pa kami ng gabi para lang makita kayo, sige pumayag ako. 

Sumisilip lang kami sa isang pinto, nakikita namin yung isang parte ng routine na gagawin n'yo. Aminado ako, medyo kinabahan ako kasi hindi n'yo pa magawa ng maayos. Inulit ng inulit, hindi talaga magawa. Hanggang sa pinaalis muna kami ni Coach. Sige, kahit ganun lang nakita namin masaya na din ako. 

Biyernes ng umaga, alas-kwatro ng umaga, pumila na kami para lang makabili ng tickets para sa cheerdance, kahit umulan okay lang. Kahit may sumingit, sige lang, basta makakuha kami ng ticket. 

Sabado, hindi pa din namin alam kung anong theme n'yo, costume, music, hairstyle, at kahit routine n'yo. Hehehe ang galing n'yong magtago (pero okay lang naman, para may surprise factor). Hindi namin alam kung nalinis n'yo ba yung stunt na 'di n'yo magawa. Pero sige, basta alam ko namang gagalingan n'yo bukas at gugulatin n'yo kami. 

Linggo na, eto na, yung pinakahihintay nating panahon, una pa kayong magpeperform, halos lumabas na yata yung puso ko sa rib cage ko sa sobrang kaba, nawala na yung poise ko kung meron man ako nun, at talagang napapadasal na ako nung nakita ko palang kayo. Sige, sabi ko sa sarili ko, kayang kaya n'yo 'to!

Nung nakita ko na kayo sa dancing area (kung yun man ang tawag dun).hindi ko na alam kung anong ginawa ko, hindi ko na nga rin napansin yung mga katabi ko, yung ibang parts din ng sayaw parang di ko na napansin, pero yung isang stunt na tumatak sa akin, yung pinapractice n'yo nung Miyerkules, yung nahihirapan kayong gawin noon, yung stunt na akala ko 'di n'yo magagawa, naperfect n'yo! Nagwala na ako talaga nung panahon na iyon. Sige, may chance tayong mag-place dito!

Announcement of winners na. Lahat na napapadasall, napapakapit, napapapikit na. 2nd runner up, La Salle. Sige sabi ko, kaya pa 'to, baka 1st runner up tayo, tiwala lang. 1st runner up ... UP. Parang nalaglag na talaga yung puso ko nun, pero sige, konting dasal pa, konting tiwala pa, baka naman tayo pa ang champion diba? Champions ... NU pala. Sige, kayo na hehe.

Natahimik kami. Lahat tayo. Baka nga may naiyak pa eh. Sobrang, parang hindi totoo. Pero, alam mo/n'yo para sa amin kayo pa rin ang nanalo :') Hindi man natin naiuwi ang kampeonato, alam kong ang dami n'yo napasaya sa ginawa n'yo. Sobrang salamat sa sakripisyo n'yo para may magandang performance kayo na mapakita sa mga kapwa Tamaraws n'yo. Sige, hindi man ngayong taon, malay natin next year tayo naman ang makapaguuwi ng tropeo. 

Naniwala ako, naniniwala ako at patuloy akong magtitiwala sa inyo, FEU Cheering Squad! I will still b3lieve! 

Love lots, 

KC <3 div="">

Who will win Game 3?

As of now, we can't answer that. That why I'm really hoping that June 2 will approach sooner because I really wanted to watch the Finals Game 3 of the Shakey's V League Year 10 1st conference. 

First game will the game 3 of the battle for the third place between Adamson University Lady Falcons and University of the Santo Tomas Tigresses. This will be an exciting match because we all know that Angela Benting, Mylene Paat, Rhea Dimaculangan and Aiza Maizo (guest players) will be the go to persons to this match. I wanted to see who's team will go out stronger with their offense and tight with their defense. For the Lady Falcons, (1) they need to have better defense against the offense minded Tigresses, (2) they need to score from block points and (3) they must utilize all of their attackers while they are in front. For the Tigresses (1) They should own the game, there are games that you can really feel that UST's gonna win the game because of their confidence inside the court (2) Continue their defense. Maika Ortiz alone score 6 blocks point in game 2 if I'm not mistaken (3) Go for cross-court/back-court attacks, since the libero of the Falcons is taller, she'll have a hard time digging for the ball. 

Second game *drum roll please* *instrumental please* The most awaited game 3 between National University Lady Bulldogs and the reigning champs of the Shakey's V League, the Ateneo De Manila University Lady Eagles. Woohoo I'm a little bit biased to this one because I love underdogs, I definitely root for NU this time. They just need to continue their powerful attacks (Hi Urdas, Pablo, Aganon & Santiago sisters!) because the Ateneo defense can't contain it and maintain their intensity in their defense (blocks, floor defense) But I know Ateneo will not just let the Lady Bulldogs steal the championship from them. Well Ahomiro was a good addition to the line-up of Coach Roger and it's really working. (The female version of Nico Salva lol) Valdez must go from the back-row attacks more often to avoid the blocks of NU and to break down their defense too. And let Jeng Bualee do the open attacks for them. 

I'm just so excited for Sunday's game! :D

No Jones Cup for Gilas?

Breaking news - The Taiwanese organizers of the William Jones Cup just un-invited the Gilas Pilipinas to join the said competition. 

(c) interaksyon.com

But why NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW? 

It's really sad to think that our national team will not be able to defend their title because of the dispute between Taiwan and the Philippines. We all knew that the Jones Cup will be the one of the huge preparations of the Gilas for the FIBA Asia that will be happening this August in the country. In the Jones Cup, the Gilas will have the opportunity to play with different Asian teams that will compete also for FIBA Asia, they can also scout the players and they can prepare more specific gameplans for each Asian team that will be joining the Jones Cup and the Fiba as well. There are many setbacks because of this...but what can we do? 

(1) They really need to find alternative invitational cup/s to join so that they can practice more as a team.

(2) Well, it can be a blessing in disguise because other Asian teams will be having a hard time to scout the team.

But at the back of my mind, I'm still hoping that the Gilas can still play for the Jones Cup and beat the Chinese-Taipei team. ;)

You got to fear the UE Red Warriors this S76 \m/

(c) gmanetwork.com

They’re for real folks. With their six rookies and a lot of veteran players coming back to the team, also with the veteran coaching of Coach Boycie Zamar, this squad will be the one to watch out for in the upcoming UAAP Season 76. 

Well, they just defeated the De La Salle Green Archers in the 2013 Fil-Oil Flying V Premier Cup today with the score of 60-53 and they win the game convincingly because their defense was just so solid and they forced so many turnovers against La Salle and made a profit from the La Salle turnovers. It was a tight ballgame but the UE Red Warriors made the final minute push with their court general, Roy Zumang scoring back-to-back shots that pushed their lead to seven. 

Now, they are in the second top spot in the Group B standings, just next to Ateneo De Manila University (ADMU). It will be an exciting conference next season because of the resurgence of this Warriors squad.

Never Say Die Once Again!

Yes! Finally, after losing to Rain Or Shine for the two consecutive All Filipino Cup Quarterfinals, Barangay Ginebra San Miguel defeated ROS and will head into the semi-finals of the Commissioner's Cup. Though the Elastopainters have the twice to beat advantage, the Barangay proved that they still has the Never-Say-Die spirit in them. Without their prolific scorer and the reigning MVP, Mark Caguioa, they still managed to pull off two consecutive wins against the top two seed in the ongoing cup. 

For now, all of the Ginebra fans out there are still enjoying the win because it was a tight ballgame, kung may magsasabi pang luto yung laro ewan ko na lang. It was an entertaining match because ROS is a very tough team to beat and the Kings had a bad history playing with ROS in Q-finals. At the last minutes of the game, those 3 point shots released by the Elastopainters gave me nerves because Josh Urb had only 3points and LA Tenorio only scored two points. There is no legit 3 point shooter at that moment for Ginebra. But thank God because offensive rebounds kept us alive, Vernon Macklin clearing up the boards and a putback. Also, without the last two freethrows by V-Mack, the game would probably proceed to overtime. 

Hoooo, semis baby! <3 p="">

What are your thoughts about the never say die attitude of the Kings? Tell it here ;)

HAPPYLADY :D

Never Say Die Ginebra!

This is one of the best games of Barangay Ginebra San Miguel (BGSM) that I've ever seen. They just proved to everyone that they are still the only Never Say Die team in the PBA. While watching, muntik na siguro akong himatayin sa mga moments na makakalamang na sana yung Ginebra kaso ayaw pa rin. 

And now, finally, we the whole Ginebra fandom can now say that Jayjay Helterbrand IS back! Scoring all of his 13 points in the 4th quarter, including crucial shots that made the Ginebra claim the lead. I just can't put all of my happiness into words. :)))) But they should win their next game this Monday to secure a semi-finals seat. Let's all support them in any way, by social media, by going to Smart-Araneta to watch the game. One last push na 'to Ginebra, Never Say Die!

What do you think about tonight's game? Feel free to comment here. ;)

HAPPYLADY :D

Good news, bad news for Ginebra

This coming play-offs of the Commissioner's cup our dear Ginebra squad will face the Rain or Shine Elastopainters with a two-game disadvantage and I should thank Meralco Bolts for this (joke, their game with ROS is a very good one. I was hoping that ROS will win that ballgame, but Eric Dawson's shooting spree went on. 50 HUGE points men.) Plus Billy Mamaril is out for a month due to his injured finger and there is still no clear go signal for Mark Caguioa to play in the Quarterfinals. Well, that is the bad news. 

But wait, there is also good news for us! Josh Urbiztondo, the star point guard player of the Barako Bull Energy Cola was traded to Ginebra today in exchange for rookie Keith Jensen and a second round pick in the next year's PBA draft. He averaged 12.7 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 5.6 assists for the  Energy Cola in the elimination round of Comm.'s Cup. For me, this is a good pick by Ginebra because it is uncertain that Mark will come back by Q-finals and LA Tenorio needs a back-up PG. Tenorio can't stay for 40 minutes always in a ballgame. Let's just hope that the Fireball can deliver quality minutes for the Barangay as we try to survive Quarterfinals and head to the Semis! Never Say Die!

What are your thoughts about the Ginebra trade? Feel free to comment. :D

HAPPYLADY :D

When Jerome and Vernon collided

Oh snap, Ginebra lost to Talk N' Text yesterday and it was a dominating ballgame for the Tropang Texters. With their new import, Jerome Jordan, he really defended Macklin well. He couldn't get his normal hook shots and perimeter shots. Jordan is a 7 footer and he has a 90 inch wingspan, no doubt that he can make things difficult for Macklin. It was intimidating for him to defend Jordan because unlike Bruno Sundov who is also a 7 footer, Jordan is more of the athletic type guy and he can bang bodies inside the painted area. Oh well, let's just hope that we will not face TNT again in the play-offs, please. :)

Note: Good thing Jerome Jordan looks like Kelly Williams, kung hindi, hate ko na s'ya. Kidding aside. =))

(c) interaksyon.com/interaktv

Now that Ginebra is in the sixth place as of now, we, the fans are eagerly praying that Rain or shine will win their last game to Meralco Bolts so that Barangay Ginebra San Miguel can retain their place in the standings in the Commisioner's Cup  and avoid being on the seventh spot. Never Say Die!

5-game Winning Streak Baby!

Yes, yes yes! 5-game winning streak for Barangay Ginebra San Miguel in the Commissioner's Cup! Without,  the reigning MVP, Mark Caguioa, without Kerby Raymundo (Get well soon!) and Rico Maierhofer, Ginebra  just stepped on the gas and won this fifth consecutive game.

The jersey says it all ;)

.

Another mamaw performance for Vernon Macklin, he scored 32 points, 11 rebounds, 6 of them came from the offensive end, 2 blocks, 2 steals and 2 assists. He also improved his freethrow shooting, he made 12 out of 21 attempts, 57.1 %. As expected, LA Tenorio showed to fans that he can exploded in any given ballgame, with his double-double performance, 18 points & 11 rebound plus 6 assists and a steal, leading the charge for the locals. Though, the Ginebra squad missed the services of Caguioa, Raymundo and Maierhofer, Coach Al Francis Chua's "hugots" was a surprise to the Air21 Express especially Elmer Espiritu who hit a 3-pointer in the crucial last 3 minutes of the game. 

Another emphatic slam by Macklin (C) Paolo Papa

Despite of the fiery 29 point explosion of KG Canaleta, it was not enough to surpass the defense of Ginebra who just allowed the Express to score 84 points. Michael Dunkin' Dunigan was fouled out in the late 4th quarter and just scored 16 points. 

Oh yes, finally I'm a bit relieved that Ginebra will be in the Q-finals but before that, they must go out and play  harder. There were times in the game that I just want to change the channel because some of their turnovers were unforgivable and they have some difficulties in communication and handling the ball. Fortunately, their defense saved them and they V-Mack was attacking inside the shaded area, though many of his hook shots failed at least he could somehow get it from the charity line. A win is a win anyway, they just need to be hard on defense and trust one another off and on the court. Yehey! <3 p="">

HAPPYLADY :D

Saturday Basketball Madness \m/

Thank You Lord for suspending the classes this Saturday <3 basketball="basketball" day.="day." fun="fun" games="games" it="it" nbsp="nbsp" p="p" s="s" the="the" to="to" watch="watch" whole="whole">

2PM was the start of my basketball madness this day. It was a double-header game (as usual, especially on week-ends), the first game is the University of the East and the Adamson University match up. I wasn't able to watch the start of the game because I zapped the channel (hihi). But I zipped it back to UAAP because other shows were as boring as a Monday afternoon.

Anyways, I always root for the underdogs (I don't even know the reason why) and this game was actually a battle of the underdogs. The two squads were under the game standings, 6th and 7th place respectively. At the end of the first half, the Adamson showed the intensity that they had last conference. And maybe, the reason why the Warriors had a bad start in the ball game, is because the Falcons started their rally strong. Pananaw ko lang naman 'yun :) Adamson ended the first half carrying a 14-point lead. 28-14

In the start of second half, Adamson was really unstoppable. They were shooting from the downtown country with confidence. Though there are parts in which the UE squad was trying to make a run but the 3-point shooting of the Falcons made a significant difference in this match-up. The Falcons were able to shoot 13 3-point shots out of 24 attempts and the assist also helped the team to get it's third win of the season.

89-69

Well, this was the main event of the double-header this Saturday. The match-up against the number 1 seed, Ateneo De Manila University and the number 3 seed, University of Sto. Tomas. In the first round of the 75th season, exactly 58 days ago, the Tigers made the whole UAAP community amazed by how they won that game. They were under 15-point the at half but the returning Aljon Mariano saved the day for the Tigers. His 9 consecutive points at the 3rd quarter gained the confidence of his other team-mates and simply won the game, with only 1 point. 

But this is a different story, I am a UST fan except when they are against FEU (Opkors) and I expected that they will make it. At the start of the first quarter, the UST outscored the Blue Eagles but in the second quarter the Ateneo was slowly getting their kind of game and ended the half with 33 to 30. 

It was huge upset for the Tigers entering the 3rd quarter, the Blue Eagles got the lead after the 4-point play of Oping Sumalinog and the Eagles started to make baskets and outscored the Tigers to 9 points at the end of the 3rd quarter. 52-43 BUT, the UST wow-ed the crowd in adjusting to the playing style of the ADMU. They were getting steals and shooting inside the paint and in the crucial last minute of the game, the two teams were tied at 63. Mariano only made 1 out of two from the free throw area and get again the lead back to the Tigers, 64-63 but Tiongson scored two points from a long jumper that reclaim their lead to 65-64. And the rest is history. 

I must say that at the last minute of the ball-game the defense of the Eagles is the reason why they won the victory over the Growling Tigers. Maybe the last attempt of Mariano, shooting a three in that kind of position was not his best decision but what the others are saying nga, bilog ang bola. I'm sure that they are in the final four spot and maybe in the finals. Nobody knows as of now, let's just wait for the semis next next week. So excited for it! :)

I also watched the game of Phil-Lebanon at the FIBA Asia Cup this night. And we won over the depending Champions, yehey! Though, we're suffering from low 3-point shooting percentage at least they made a way to claim that victory. Go Gilas Pilipinas! 

Media Group Dilemmas =)

Should I cry (not literally cry hehe) because I was not accepted for the media group o should I rejoice because it won't add any more pressures anymore? 

Yeah, those questions are lingering in my head as of now. Media Group was organized by the Department of Communication for training writers that they will 'use' in the near future. Of course as a student, I really want to be a part of that group because (1) Ma'am Barro will be our mentor in the MG and by the way, she is one of the professors that amazes me all the time (2) INCENTIVES, you'll get incentives of course because you'll be training hard for that (3) Learning outside the classroom, there are so many different things that you'll learn here especially in writing and last (4) You have the opportunity to work with the professors in the DepComm. I know there are a lots of great things that I still haven't mentioned here but nonetheless, it's worth joining. 

I tried to join the MG along with my other blocmates and last Tuesday was the deliberation. I was excited, really excited about it. When Ma'am Barro, checked our papers, she gave a perfect grade. If I could just shout at the moment, I would shout but hehehe it's not allowed. Then she told us the students that will be participating in the MG. She only mentioned 3 students and I was not one of them.

JUST BECAUSE OF ONE ASSIGNMENT. It broke my heart when she said that I haven't passed one assignment and maybe that is the determinant why I was not in the MG. I don't want to elaborate that assignment thingy because it will bring me to tears if I'll do that, CHOS. Just refer to my other blog post about my assignment. Huhuhu. 15 percent of our class standing is that one homework.

I already discussed (very prof ito) the pros in joining the Media Group. But most of the time, there are always a negative counterpart in one event or thing. (1) Added pressure, you have so many requirements to be done, reports to be reported, essays and writings to be written and so forth, it'll really add a tremendous pressure for students to think that their mentor is none other than Ma'am Barro. (2) Maybe students will be facing a different Ma'am Barro, before the Media Group, Ma'am already gave a warning to us that she'll have a higher standards to the members of it. "Bawal tanga and pajulit-julit"

Okay, let's face it. Maybe, this is not my time to join the group or maybe this is not the place where I can maximize my writing skills. But, I'll train and train to become a good writer that I will use in the field of media someday. <3 div="div">

It's not that Complicated (Hindi nga naman)

Nabasa ko na yung 2nd part ng sequel nito sobrang lupeeeeet na libro ni Master Eros Atalia (pinanuod ko na din, medyo shocking lang s'ya para sa akin hehehe) Last Saturday natapos ko na yung last (pero sana may installation paaaaa nito please Eros please po) installment ng sequel na It's not that complicated.


GRABE. Understatement ang salitang grabe sa librong ito. Wala na akong masabi sa ganda ng twist ng istorya, cast, set-up ng mga characters. Pero, sobrang natuwa ako sa bandang dulo, basahin n'yo na lang dahil ayokong maging spoiler. :D Nakaka-inlove talaga ito. Sobrang. Go, basa na. Wala pang isang araw ko itong binasa, hindi mo na kasi s'ya titigilan! =)

Kaibigan lang pala, kaibigan lang pala.

Akala n'yo siguro emo-emohan ang blog post ko, nagkakamali kayo. =)) Sobrang natuwa lang kasi ako kanina kasi nag-Tales From The Friend Zone marathon ako by Ramon Bautista, actually nung June ko pa s'ya alam, sa hindi ko malamang dahilan hindi ko s'ya napanuod, kahit isang episode man lang. Kanina habang nagttwitter ako, nakita ko sa aking timeline na may niretweet si Sir Ramon Bautista tapos link pala iyon sa TFTFZ. Edi ako naman si nuod. Grabe, real life experiences ito. And ang location nila lagi sa UP Diliman (hihihi Sir ang bias ha :">) Nakakatuwa lang kasi sobrang relate-able yung bawat episodes tapos light lang s'ya sa feeling, hindi tulad nung mga nasa FM Radio, sobrang detailed dun. Sa TFTFZ, brief explanation/story lang pero andun yung emotions and feelings. "Na-friendzoned ka na, may t-shirt ka naman." - Ramon Bautista. Sobrang macocomfort ka talaga sa katagang iyon. 

Doon sa mga hindi pa nakakaranas (ay ha ano ito) na makapanuod ng mga video ni Sir RB, eto, mag-marathon din kayo. ENJOY! :) At kung may istorya din kayo ng friendzoning, ipadala lang sa formspring.me/ramonbautista. Nagpadala rin ako ng story ko, baka sakaling magkaroon ako ng Abangers t-shirt. Echauz! =))

EPISODE 1 

EPISODE 2 (Story of my life

   EPISODE 3

         EPISODE 4 Mainit-init pa 'to.

SUGOD LANG LABAN PA PILIPINAS!

Sa mga nangyayaring kalamidad sa Pilipinas, sobrang nakakatuwang tignan na dito talaga lumalabas ang tunay na bayanihan sa ating mga Pilipino. Ang daming istorya ng mga tunay na bayani natin ngayon. Mga sugatan at biktima din ng bagyo, tinutulungan ang iba. Yung mga rescuer na kahit pagod na pagod na, sugod pa din sa baha para lag maligtas ang mga kababayanan nating nasa peligro pa din. Ang mga tao sa gobyerno na hindi na natutulog para lang matugunan ang mga pangangailangan ng mga nasalanta. Ang mga taong nasa bahay, nagreretweet para mabilis ang dissemination na information at mabilis itong makarating sa mga kinauukulan. Ang mga tao sa harap at likod ng media (in 4 years time, andyan na din ako hihihi) na sumusuong kung saan-saan para maibalita ang mga balitang kailangan nating malaman. Sa mga panahong ito, sobrang nakakabilib ang puso ng mga Pilipino, walang sawang tumutulong, walang sawang nananalangin, walang sawa ding nagmamahal sa kapwa Pinoy. 

At dahil d'yan, sobrang bagay na bagay sa unti-unti nating pagbangon sa trahedya ang kantang ito. :)

SIGE LANG - QUEST 

Very uplifting ang lyrics, pinapakita dito na kaya naman ng Pilipinas eh konting sipag pa at tiwala lang sa Diyos, malalagpasan natin ang bawat pagsubok at makakamit natin ang pag-unlad na gusto nating makamit. 

Oh eto lyrics, sabayan mo na :) Warning: Mahandang ma-LSS (Dalawang linggo na akong LSS dito hahaha!)

Eto nanaman tayo bagong simula
Huminga ng malalim alisin ang kaba
Tapos na ang kahapon, pwede nang itapon
Huwag lang ang mga aral dapat yan ay ibaon
Katulong mo sa panibagong hamon
May paparating na bagong alon
Pwede kang lamunin o pwede mong sabayan
Yung aral ng kahapon pwede ka nyang gabayan
Kung ako sayo tumayo ka na dyan
Huwag ka nang magpahuli kami ay sundan
Patungo sa liwanag, aabutin ang tala
Pagkatapos pakita sa mundo pusong nagbabaga
Upang lahat ay mamulat, sa aking susulat
Parinig sa lahat ang aking iuulat
Huwag ka nang mabahala ako ang bahala
kasangga natin si Bathala

Walang imposible
Sige lang ng sige
Abot mo ang mundo
malapit o malayo
Sama sama tayo
Hanggang sa dulo
ano man ang pagsubok
Hindi susuko
Alam kong kaya mo
Sige lang sige
Sige lang sige
Walang imposible

Nagniningning
Ang pangarap ng yong pusong
Humihiling
Na makalimutan ang kahapon
Sanay dinggin
Sigaw ng aking puso
Hindi sumusoko, hindi to susuko

Ilabas ang yong pangarap
Huwag mo yang itatago
Samahan mo ng sipag at tatag ng puso
Tumayo ko sa yong silya
Ikaw ngayon ang bida
Wala nang pipigil pa eto na eto na

Hanggat ako’y humihinga
Sugod lang laban pa
Pangarap abutin
Kumislap tulad ng mga bituin
Sige lang, di ka nagiisa
Sige lang sige pa

>:D<

Disclaimer: Ako po ay isang fan, die-hard fan ng Ginebra, pero bet ko ROS this Finals series dahil tinalo ng B-Meg ang Gin Kings. HAHAHA


Ayooon, masaya talaga ako ngayong Sunday dahil dalawang victories ang aking nasaksihan una yung FEU vs UP tapos ROS vs B-meg. Magbasa sa interaksyon.com/interaktv para sa balita dahil natatamad na akong  sabihin kung anong nangyari, I just want to remember the feeling. :)))

HE WAS DEFEATED BY A WRESTLER

Lagi na lang akong nagsosorry dahil hindi ko nauupdate yung blog ko. As if may nagbabasa pa nito, lols. 

Sa sobrang busy ko, pati FB 'di ko na nagagawa dahil may bet ko ang twitter dahil fast s'ya sa Chrome.

Sige, dahil overcrowded ang ideas ko this night, wala din naman laman ang utak ko kung hindi panghihinayang sa pagkatalo ni Mark Barriga doon sa (wala na akong balak alamin ang pangalan n'ya) boxer/wrestler na Kazathani na iyon. I promised to myself kanina that I will do whatever it takes to meet/see/talk/take picture/interview Barriga when he returns to the Philippines. Ang dami kong gustong gawin actually but I don't have the time. As always, I'm consumed with my studies, because I have to or else nothing will happen in my life. Lol, I was just kidding. 

Anyways back to the barriga story, I'm so saddened when I turned on the TV 3 or 2 hours ago and then I saw a picture of barriga with the L sign, you know what it means right? Hahaha. L is for love, because somehow I love him because of olympics. Olympic love. Lol joke. Hahaha! My brain isn't working the way it should tonight. Back again to the story, yeah reality slapped me really hard when I saw the "L" letter. Baka naman love lang yun, no, it's lose. I thought that he would really made it even to the round of 8, happy na ako dun. I wasn't able to watch the match (wow, rhyme) because we are putting my baby sister to sleep then. 

It broke my heart, all the Filipinos who believed and prayed that, this kid would be able to be an olympic winner. He has the potential, he has the skills, he has a coach who himself experienced being in the Olympics and won a silver medal for the country. Well, we have to face it, he was defeated by a wrestler. Let's wait again for another excruciating 4 years, 4 more, apat pa. Let's help our athletes to win the medal that we always wanted and craved for. 

Naisip ko lang itong blog entry na ito kasi gumawa ako kanina ng assignment ko sa Journ. Inspiration. =)

"tatanda at lilipas din ako, ngunit merong tawanang iiwanan sa inyong alaala, dahil minsan, tayo'y nagkasama"..

Kasabay ng pagluluksa ko sa pagbagsak ko sa unang quiz namin sa Journ (Jamich lang?) at sumabay na din ang langit at ang buong sambayanang Pilipino sa pagpanaw ng ating kinikilalang Hari ng Komedya.

Bata pa lang ako, lumaki na ako sa mga palabas sa telebisyon at mga pelikula ni Dolphy, mula sa John en Marsha na sa RPN-9 ko pa napapanuod pati sa Home along 'd Riles sa two, sayang wala s'yang show sa GMA-7. Sobrang simple n'ya lang magpatawa, hindi na n'ya kailangang tumalon sa building para lang matawa ang mga tao, kumbaga in born ang pagiging comedian n'ya. Dahil adik talaga ako sa tv, pati yung mga dating pelikula n'ya napanuod ko din, Silveria na yung isa dun, para s'yang may hawig sa petrang kabayo pero hindi. Ang daming talagang sobrang nakakatawang moments pag pinapanuod ko s'ya pero marahil ang 'di ko malilimutan ay yung pinauso n'yang 'dyaryo hampas'. Tuwang-tuwa talaga ako kapag nirorolyo na n'ya yung dyaryo tapos ihahampas n'ya dun sa slow n'yang kausap. 

Noong nakaraang mga linggo, sunod-sunod ang mga balita tungkol sa paghina ng kalusugan ng Hari ng Komedya dahil sa Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) at kung ano-ano pang mga sakit. Nakita at nasubaybayan natin ang paglaban ni dolphy at nakita naman natin na kahit sa ganoong sitwasyon ay nagagawa n'yang ngumiti at tumawa. 

Ngayong sa araw ng kanyang paglisan, feeling ko ang sobrang ang saya-saya na sa langit. Sana'y dalhin natin sa ating mga puso ang kagalakang ibinigay n'ya sa bawat Pilipino sa loob ng halos animnapung taon. Mabuhay ka Dolphy! You'll remain in our hearts forever! <3
