Just Got Married

Motivational speaker Nick Vujicic got married with Kanae Miyahara on February 10th in California. 

Nick was born without limbs and he has overcome hardships. He made the most out of his life and never give up. Despite of his disabilities it didn't hinder him from doing something for others and being someone for others. Nick was able to have speeches from over three million people in 25 countries. Through this and his life he was able to inspire and touch numerous lives which allowed the audience to know that God created everyone with a beautiful purpose.It is a dream come true for him to be married with his wife who God has prepared for him. 

"I can do all things through Him who gives me strength."

My Real Emotions:

No matter what you have and you don't have always remember that God made us equally and uniquely. He created us because we have our own individual purpose in life. 

Live your life to the fullest.

Live positively. 

Live for others. 

Live for God.

Love knows no Batteries

A Toy Love Story That Will Make You Cry (HD)

What happens when an old robot falls in love with a beautiful doll?

My Real Emotions:

Human beings "Love knows no boundaries." 

Toys "Love knows no batteries."

Love is a wonderful feeling but then getting into a relationship is not just about being happy. When you love you have to take risk. You gotta be ready to get hurt, to be blind, to be deaf, to be mute, to be numb, and to sacrifice. 

"Sacrificing your happiness for the happiness of the one you love, is by far, the truest type of love."

Coca-Cola Where Will Happiness Strike Next: The OFW Project

Happiness is Home

Happiness is being Together

uploaded by Coca-Cola

My Real Emotions:

We Filipinos are family-oriented. We will do everything for our family...

to satisfy their wants and needs,

to sacrifice our own happiness for their happiness.  

This video really made me cry and smile

to know how hard Overseas Filipino Workers' life abroad and

to see how happy they are being with their family again…

Christmas is best celebrated here in the Philippines.

Most especially when you are with your family…

This is one of those posts or upcoming posts that I become a fan. For those who read my previous posts and know me personally, this isn't new to you that I'm a big fan of Parokya ni Edgar. 

PAROKYA NI EDGAR was awarded BAND OF THE YEAR by the Stagg Music Awards 2011.

and the band's vocalist CHITO MIRANDA JR. was awarded MOST LIKED VOCALIST-MAINSTREAM. 

Here are other awardees To know how and why they won

MY REAL EMOTIONS:

Just a happy fan sharing this. Accept and Respect . :)

A NIGHT WITH SMART GILAS

the team prayed after the game.

September 09, 2011, a date I will never forget. Finally I was able to watch live Smart Gilas Pilipinas team play. That was two months ago at San Juan Arena, I was able to cheer for our National Team's tune-up game versus the team of Jordan. I am lucky to see them play together for the last time because most of the players joined the PBA Draft and now playing really well on PBA. *no news yet if the program will continue and if the former players will still play and represent the country.  

Pilipinas succeded to win over Jordan. Final Score: 80-71. 

Sulit ang panunuod ng mga fans na nagpunta dahil nanalo ang Gilas at binigay ng parehong team ang best nila, di sila nagrelax lang. 

We also watched the game for FREE. Yes! No entrance fee paid. 

...now ill be just sharing photos of the players with me. 

Please bare with my low quality photos. I wasn't able to fully charge my camera so my battery emptied before the game started. too bad. After the game fans waited for the players to have a photo-opp and here's mine. :)

with Don Don Hontiveros

Don Don is really nice and casual. I remember he even told my friend "nanginginig ka" while she takes our photo. He is also a Gilas player however he didn't played for the FIBA ASIA. Sayang. He just supported the team.  I also was able to have an autograph of him. Watch him play for Petron Blaze no. 7. Chris Lutz is also playing really well on same team no.3.

Don Don Hontiveros' autograph.

This is my one and only autograph from the players. It is not because they wouldn't sign one but because I don't have a pen and a paper. My bad :( That autograph above, I just tore a paper on my friend's filler and borrowed pentel pen from a fan. Since my friend came from school that day, she has her school supplies and she is lucky to have autographs from all the players. envy me! 

...sharing of photos (in order)

with Marcus Douthit

He is a naturalized Filipino. He didn't join the PBA Draft together with Chris Tiu.

with Jason Ballesteros

no. 18 of Meralco Bolts

with his team mate Asi Taulava no. 5 

Asi is really nice to the fans. After the game he came to the fans to say thank you for supporting the team, some fans asked for a photo-opp, autograph, shake hands at hindi niya ito binigo. He even threw baller to the audience and the guy beside me caught it. 

with Marcio Lassiter

also a Tiger of Powerade no.13. 

with Charles Tiu

He is one of the coaches of Smart Gilas Pilipinas. Now he is also an assistant coach for Powerade. Charles is making his own name in Basketball. A younger brother of Chris Tiu.

He is one of those players I really look up to. Why? Read this Ten Things You Should Know about Chris Tiu 

I wasnt able to have pictures with the other players. Check http://www.pba.ph/home here you will know more about PBA teams and the players.

Stage (upper left),  Medic and Information (upper right), Baggage (lower left), Male and Female Dressing (lower right)

In case of emergency, there were medical staffs that can give first aids on the runners at the Medic booth and an ambulance on stand by behind it. Meron pang isang ambulansya na umiikot sa race route, naka-abangan sila kung meron mang runner na kailangan ng tulong (physically). 

If runners or people on the place have questions they can proceed on the Information booth, they can also buy foods, drinks, SJA 85th Anniversary and Fun Run Collectibles. Another booth sells clothes and other stuffs.

Runners who have backpacks or a lot of things with them they can left their things on the Baggage booth. I just brought a belt bag where I placed my cellphone, money, camera, towel and a "drink and fold" water container. Di hassle. I must recommend just have with you belt bags. :) 

Male and Female Dressing room is a place where runners can change their clothes before and after the run. 

Runners or others can also have a souvenir photo for 40 pesos at the Photo Booth. (yun nga lang nagloko ata un printer nila kaya un ibang photos di na nakuha at nirefund un bayad o pede nilang kunin un photo kay Ms. Tandoc sa school.). 

There is also a Technical Booth located behind the stage. 

Pocari Sweat Booth (left) and Pocari Sweat take homes (right)

Pocari Sweat booth is located at the back of the stage and runners can ask for a bottle as long as they want. There were also two Pocari Sweat hydration stations and two water stations located on KM point race route. 

at may mga batang namamasura na hihingin yun mga plastic cups and bottles pagkatapos mo inuman. :)

my bib and singlet

MY REAL EMOTIONS: 

It was nice to see old and new faces at the fun run. It was a good venue to see Jamers. It made me missed my Alma Mater. 

My siblings and I are all alumni from St. James Academy. I can say that my parents greatest investment was our education. My Alma Mater drove me to give selflessly myself to the local community and the Church.  I learned, grew and became a good citizen and God-fearing. All of this I owe to the community of St. James Academy. 

"For our God, For our Country, For our St. James"

"Para sa Diyos, Para sa Bayan, Para kay Santiago"

GOT INSPIRED BY 3 IDIOTS

a movie was recommended by my good friend. it's entitled 3 Idiots. i will not get into details of the movie. i wanted you to see it yourself and hope it will inspire you. just like how it touched me and stayed on my mind for a long time. here is the official trailer of 3 Idiots. 

it is an Indian movie so better watch it with English subtitles

or else you will not understand it except if you do understand Hindi. 

Genre: Comedy, Drama, Musical

Starring: Aamhir Khan as Rancho

              Sharman Joshi as Ruji

            Madhavan as Farhan
                 Kareena Kappoor as Pia

Director: Rajkumar Hirani

MY REAL EMOTIONS:

the movie made me laugh, dance, cry, realize and dream. it was an inspiring movie. it left me spellbound for hours after it had ended.  and indeed it is one of my favorite movies. in spite of the humor in the movie it carries a message. a good message to live by for all walks of life.  A scene caught my attention it is when Chatur asked a vendor of where they can find the address written on the paper but the vendor said "If I could read, would I sell peanuts". May punto ang nagtitinda, pag madiskarte ka sa buhay kahit wala kang pinag-aralan, kaya mong mabuhay. Pero hanggang dun na lang ba ang pangarap mo? We all deserve better than that. Rancho was an orphaned; no money to enroll in school so what he did is get an old uniform and slip into class he liked. His status in life didnt hinders him to reach his dream, to be an Engineer. He has the capability to do impossible, possible. All of us have our dream, our passion in life. We plan our own life. If you have a dream, claim it. 

"Make your passion, your profession." 

-Rancho

There are a lot of good things one can learn from this movie. 

• Students: should not focus on just memorizing books chapter but focus on how you can apply it. 
• Parents: be a good provider, support and respect your child's dream.
• Teacher and Education System: Learn how to teach. (does it make sense? Rancho emphasized it on the movie)
• To all of us: Life is a journey that is full of pressures, dont quit. Enjoy the ride.

"All is well." 

-Rancho 

How ironic the title is, for me they are genius. also i want to give credit to the director, writers and the whole production team of 3 Idoits. YOU ARE ALL GENIUS! :) 

GOT TWEETED

Last September 17, 2011 I attended the Halina sa LPU ft. Parokya ni Edgar concert...

After the concert I tweeted these...

tweeted PNE members and thanked them for a ROCK and ROLL concert.

I'm so happy when I was able to hold Chito's arm and it felt cold. 

His slanted eyes and when he smiles it make me FALL IN LOVE! :)

And my Idol Chito Miranda (Parokya ni Edgar's Vocalist) also tweeted this...

He thanked all those who came in the concert especially the Pirates of Lyceum. :)

When I woke up I still can't get over about the concert and tweeted this...

on my tweet I mentioned PNE members and expressed how happy I am last night and Im still lying in bed that morning

and it surprised me when PNE's back-up singer Vinci Montaner retweeted/replied...

"ako rin" --short but mean a lot to me! :)

I read his RT day after he replied and IM SO HAPPY! :)

and right away I asked him if where I can buy the shirt he wore at the concert...

I like his shirt "MAY PAROKYA, MAY KAMIKAZEE, MAY GLOC9 PA"

and he immediately replied "WALA"...

I felt bad when I knew that it was a personalized shirt and nowhere I can buy one. :( 

After that concert I listed all the songs they played and tweeted and mentioned parokyaniedgar's twitter account...

unfortunately I can't remember the order of the songs. The last four songs were the songs I remember in order. 

I almost forgot one of their songs...

"Inuman Na"

Since I mentioned parokyaniedgar, I didnt expect that they will reply on my tweet.

they said I just tweeted 11 songs and that i missed "Inuman na".

I forgot to mention them on my last tweet and replied...

MY REAL EMOTIONS: 

for others they might find my post non-sense, some may call it "kababawan" (shallowness) but for a fan like me it means a lot. That band is so busy with their concerts or even with their private  life, and for them to recognize a tweet from a fan must be something.  On their twitter account parokyaniedgar their followers are 18,669 and counting, on their Facebook fan page parokyaniedgarofficial they hit 1, 724, 477 and counting likes. Those numbers doesn't include all  followers of Parokya ni Edgar band members, individually. Like the band's vocalist Chito Miranda with 157,206 tweetpeps follows his twitter account chitomirandajr. So for a fan like me it surprised me when they were able to recognize my tweets. 

Sa tingin ko ito ang mga dahilan kung bakit mahal na mahal sila ng fans nila dahil... 

 hindi sila nakakalimot sa mga taong umiidol sa kanila, 

hindi nila pinababayaan ang mga sumusuporta sa kanila, 

walang sawa sila sa pagpapasalamat sa fans nila at 

patuloy ang pagmamahal nila sa amin. 

at mula sa isang fan...

SALAMAT...

MABUHAY ANG PAROKYA NI EDGAR! 

ROCK AND ROLL!
