QUO VADIS? PHILIPPINES!

Political exercises are in the offing and the entire nation (Philippines that is) goes bruhaha over it, coz poll date is coming very soon. You can feel the air smokin' here due to the intensity of both nemesis regarding their political strategies. The election here becomes a mudslinging of sorts. All the candidates are showing their best foot forward to impress and mesmerize their audiences to ensure that they will get their votes. It pissed me off when a certain commercial of a certain candidate bragged that he is pro pinoy but the ironic is that he is using english word, pro which implies that viewers are imbiciles and bunch of "coños". Independent candidate is espousing E-Vat while opposition bet is in favor of repealing it. Most of them are capitalizing the popularity of showbiz personalities to gather sure crowd and paying them exhorbitantly. So the big question is, where in the world they will get the money to pay those stars? For sure, they gonna thresh out the government funds to recoil the money they've spent. Most of the campaign posters and commercials are promising good things, but who are we to know that what they're  telling is true? We still have 2 months to contemplate about our verdict and the decision is in the ballot. So be wise and be vigilant! While exercisimg your political rights think about the future of this nation, where is it heading?

JUST A VIEWPOINT!

My last blog entitled "reality bites" created a stir of contention among my non-mindsay friends. They couldn't comment co'z they're on the other side of the fence (FRIENDSTER that is!) They told me that the aforementioned blog didn't just about negativity but a pessimism of sorts! They reiterated that HOPE is what the only thing their clinging whenever all possible options abscond them! They also quipped that HOPE no matter what, are their only tool whenever things are insurmountable! I certainly agreed to that, but what is HOPE anyway? According to ENCARTA DICTIONARY HOPE is:

 
hope [hōp]
transitive and intransitive verb (past and past participle hoped, present participle hop·ing, 3rd person present singular hopes)

want or expect something: to have a wish to get or do something or for something to happen or be true, especially something that seems possible or likely

noun (plural hopes)

1. confident desire: a feeling that something desirable is likely to happen
2. likelihood of success: a chance that something desirable will happen or be possible
3. wish or desire: something that somebody wants to have or do or wants to happen or be true
4. source of success: somebody or something that seems likely to bring success or relief
5. trust: a feeling of trust (archaic)

[ Old English hopian (verb), hopa (noun), origin ?]

I'm not apathetic about HOPE but if you look at the meaning of the word, it only means, expecting something, desiring,wishing, wanting, trusting on something which is not yet within your grasp! Your just fooling yourself that positive things will always occur co'z it's just a wishful thinking! Naysayers would eventually react and would surely said 'What's wrong with that? At least with HOPE we're expecting a slim chance of obtaining it than think of hopeless outcome"! Yah! It's agreeable to but my only contention is, why HOPE? Why don't we just wait for the things as it happen? Just let it "come to pass"! Before, I used to HOPE for better things but it only generated disappoinment when the thing you HOPE for didn't exceed to your expectation! I'm a hopeful individual before, but not anymore! I just live one day at a time! If you do so, ir will bring less frustations! Less frustations, less pains! Well, It's okay to be HOPEFUL but prepare yourself to whatever aftermath it may bring!

AN OPEN LETTER TO DASOULOFSPRING

AN OPEN LETTER TO DASOULOFSPRING

 

TO MARY ANN:

 

The blog you've posted strucked me and I earnestly sympathized w/ you! Your disclosure put myself back to reality. Mindsay is a haven for me, a hide away and I don't want other people to distract me. Like what I've told you, when I first read your blog, thought you're just a brat seeking attention but your blog dated october 24 entitled "Parents doll" was a revelation and insurmountable.Your horrendous experienced made me realized that life really, is a survival. Besides, who said life is fair?

 

"Parent stuff" is kinda complex. It trancends to the point of failure and success. Upbringing of children reflects the manner on how they were raised by their parents. But that is not always the case. Emotional and social development are things most parents often neglected. They believed that sending their children to a reputable school, providing them extravagant lifestyle, notwithstanding financial affluence. Parents seemingly thought that personality was cultured in this type of perception. But sometimes, personality is acquired through myriad channels. One factor is the community. In here, inter-action builds up. You'll literally meet "people from all walks of life" and if you're not fortunate enough you're gonna encounter "perverts" who will take advantage of your innocence.They will utilized the affinity to inflict harm on you. More often than not, people who committed promiscuity were closed kin, or friends and acquaintances of the family. (What a nerve!) THat's why because of trauma, some kids are shy, insensitive, vulgar, aberrant, boisterous,reserved. -You couldn't blame them for being such! Environment is the place where personality development also takes place. If a child has a weak personal;ity, he/she could easily absorb "stuff" that surroundings provided them. Their susceptibilty are defy by the occurrences transpired on it. Other people said that this would determine if you're gonna possess strong or weak persona. But I personally believe, it roots its threshold at home.The way our parents raised us emanate from our being. Children are the reflection of their parents. What they saw in them are inherent to the children. But your case is different. Having an unmindful mom is beyond my comprehension. I surmised that mom and daughter are supposed to be bonded, closed. And you proved me wrong! Mother should be the "light" of the of our dwellings. their job is to illuminate or enlighten the anxiety of their children. The "uncaring your mom demonstrated are detestable and abhoring. W/o your dad, mom is  the one who should be protecting you. On that "fateful" day, when your mom didn't even bother to asked what really happened was despicable. For me, thar was the most unexpected reaction a mother could possibly did. The nonchalance by your mom was tantamount to neglect. (sorry to say that!)  In the absence of your dad, your mom should be the pillars of strength but she did the opposite. It enrages me when financial concern exceeds more than well-being.For me it's just a pretext, an excuse. I am not condemning your mom but she's culpable for the incident. As what I've told ana (ayifilms@mindsay.com) Every existence has a purpose. Maybe life is just preparing you for a bigger role or responsibility and it's molding you to be strong to thwart challenges. So hold on dear, just live life and your in good path!

 

Cordially yours,

LANDLINE VS. MOBILE PHONES
Tags: face-off

Breakthrough in technology had a tremendous effects in the lives of multitude. During the advent of telephone, we enjoy the ease of convenience and the extensive application of landline phones but when mobile phone emerged, the poor landline phone was put on the sideline for awhile, though it’s still viable for formal business calls or other trivial matters. We’re relishing the high-ends and the low-ends cellular phones we could possibly purchased. Now , there’s 3G (wcdma). 3G (or 3-G) is short for third-generation technology. It is used in the context of mobile phone standards. The services associated with 3G provide the ability to transfer simultaneously both voice data (a telephone call) and non-voice data (such as downloading information, exchanging email, and instant messaging). In marketing 3G services, video telephony has often been used as the killer application for 3G. And there’s High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) is a mobile telephony protocol, is a 3G technology, which provides a smooth evolutionary path for UMTS-based 3G networks allowing for higher data transfer speeds. An evolution of the W-CDMA standard, HSDPA achieves the increase in the data transfer speeds by defining a new W-CDMA channel: a high-speed downlink shared channel (HS-DSCH) that operates in a different way from existing W-CDMA channels and is used for downlink communications to the mobile. No matter how “cool” those features,  for me no high-end cell phone could match to rustic, timeworn, vintage or you can call it “jurassic” landline phone> Listening to the voice of someone dear to you is more fulfilling than virtual text. You couldn’t talk for as long as want to a cell phone because it gonna cost you exorbitantly. Besides, rates of mobile phone to conventional landline phone is beyond compare. It’s like comparing taxi to a limo. The “magic”of conventional phone is still there, I assure you that!
