What a sad day!!!

 

What a sad day!!!!

 

This morning at around 11am, I received a text message from my sister that my grandmother’s sister passed away just about 30 minutes ago. I called up immediately my mother to confirm it. I think they want to hide or not to tell me right away the situation, because they know that I’m leaving in just few hour going on my vacation to Boracay with my friends. My grandma’s sister or “Apeng” (which what we called her instead of real name) is much closed to my heart and to my family. She’s the one who take care of me when I was young. His family live in my grandparent’s house that time before moving out to Sta. Maria in Laguna. I cant remember the dates because I’m still young at that age, I think I’m around 4 years old and I’m not in schooldays. During may vacation in school, I always go at their place and stay for the whole period of summer. Lots of childhood memory still fresh on my mind during my stays their. All I just remember that my last spent of summer there is around 1996 or 1997. After that no vacation there anymore, just a visit once in a year or sometimes as in no visit. My last visit to them is last May 2008 together with my sister. We spend overnight before going back to Lumban.

 

It’s a sad story that she suffer from a breast cancer I think started last 2008. We brought her at the hospital but refused for an operation. I think that time she think that she’s already old. How many times that my family and relatives convince her for that operation. Last October 2009, her daughter “Ate Ning” text me regarding her situation that she doesn’t eat and in pain. “ Dina daw sya makakain at may nararamdaman na sakit”. I replied to her that I will visit her soon, but I failed to do it but my mother and some relatives do it for me, they went there for a visit. Last May 2009, his sister passed away also. She didn’t make it to see because of her condition.

 

Now, I apologize for not seeing or visiting her for a long time……it’s my fault.

 

I had a real story, I dream last night regarding “Apeng”. She’s in pain and I can’t remember what were talking about. “Nanghihina na sya that time, parang nagpapasama sya sakin somewhere around their house. May ibinibigay sya sakin pero hindi ganun ka klaro ung story nya. Meron daw nagpapahina sa kanya, I can’t remember kung tao or something else at kailangan daw iyon makuha at maibalik sa kanya”. That’s my dream all about. It so weird and lots of question. I just remember that dream just right away after I knew that she passed away.

 

I’m in a big question for myself right now. I had schedule going to Boracay today at around 12 in the midnight. We will take RORO land and sea traveled with my friends. What should I do now? What is my other option? We all know that we have beliefs in life. I can’t think anymore!!! My mind is in doubt!!! Help me………to decide.

Take note, naka sapatos ang mga tao, walang naka tsinelas kahit sa Avenida... just sharing...sayang di ko to inabutan... super linis at discipline ang mga tao wala pang naka maong hehehe   Old Manila The environment was still very clean.  Very little wires hanging from posts.. Based on the Oldsmobiles, Studebakers, Buicks & Pontiacs, I must have been 10 years old then.     There were no Metro Aides, Bayani Fernando Cleaners, and stores cleaned their areas.  Pedestrians were also very disciplined. Very little “hukays” and Manholes were clean and were clearly visible to pedestrians. People were so disciplined.  Take a look at the Pedxings. I remember this part of Escolta as my Dad would buy us Boursege’s from Greg Shoes or Ang Tibay.  It could be much better looking than Colehaans and Ferragamos.  The streets were shiny, much like the streets of Singapore now. LYRIC Theatre (in the photo below), IDEAL, STATE, ODEON were the best theatres.  Environment inside and outside ....absolutely clean.  There were no double parking allowed and drivers followed.  Streets didn’t have 2 policemen and 4 Traffic Aides for each corner.  You’d be safe even if you held a clutch bag while shopping. Manholes were covered well and during those days, I remember them....as clean and polished, much like those you’d see in Champ Elysee’.  We could beat Paris .  Ang ganda ng bayan natin noon. Dencia’s was famous for Pansit Mami, much like Mamonluk or Ricebowl. P1.50 ang Mami, 10 sentimo ang coca cola.  5 centimo ang sarsaparilla. This was very near Villalobos and Carriedo. Look at the jeepneys.  They were not overloaded.  Pasig was very clean.  The photographer must have taken this photo (below)  October to December timeframe.  But Pasig , during summer would have beautiful water lilies, tiny Quiapo’s floating amidst white, yellow and purple water lilies that I remember.  Water from our rich and abundant rivers were emerald green and blue.  Napakalinis and walang amoy.  In fact, I know for a fact that a lot of private yachts would pass through our Pasig River from various parts of Rizal, Malabon and Marikina .  It was beautiful.  Manila was just a beautiful place. If you’d take an L5 plane or a Piper Cab and take pictures of Dewey Boulevard (now Roxas Boulevard) from above, you’d be so proud to say, that the place is much better than Cote’ d Azure.  My Dad would even bring soldiers sick of asthma from the PAF, so that they could do early morning breathing exercises at 5AM.  Environment was just so very clean, air was refreshing, and take a look at the sea....wasn’t that a gift given to us during those days?! Sidewalks were not extended to suit the pedestrians.   Quiapo Church was a blessed monument.  Nagbibigayan ang mga drivers.  Bihira ang nag-gigitgitan. Avenida Rizal was a treat to everyone.  There were no prostitutes nor body-brokers. Avenida was not a fickle place.  It was not  a “now a bistro boulevard, tomorrow a street; now a tiangge or night market and tomorrow a bistro boulevard”.  It was a simple avenida where everyone enjoyed to see what was “now showing”, what movie was “extended showing”, and if Otis or Good Earth had a big sale !!!   It was just a big clean place.  Ayala Avenue was just like Wilshire Boulevard .  Clean and no pollution.  You can walk and enjoy the sun.  Napakalinis.  Walang masyadong Trash bins pero walang basura sa paligid. Even Parks like Fort Santiago was much better.  No vendors, no cafe’s.  There was not even an ATM machine.  Malinis ang paligid. And then, we had more technocrats, more intelligent people educated here and.................. stateside. What did we do to our environment ? Sayang. Maswerte kami noon.  Mas na mas maswerte kami noon.  We saw a country that was much cleaner, a much better place to live in and a truly healthy place.         Words to live by:   Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.     P Please be gentle with our Planet - Print e-mails only when necessary   This e-mail may contain confidential and/or privileged information.

Hello there!

 

It’s been too long since I post here at my blog. Well, I’m so busy busyhan! I didn’t open it for long months. Many occasions happens this past month. After Christmas and New Year, our town fiesta was celebrated last January 20. Then followed by the event we organized for the feast of San Sebastian in Lumban Laguna which called “Lupe” or the ending celebration of our town fiesta. We organized new religious group named “Tropa ni Bro”. Don’t worry I’ll just make a post regarding this event even though its too late. I’ll find a time to post it or you may check my facebook account or my friends account. You may search it via facebook and become a member.

 

Then watch out for our summer vacation at Boracay coming this April, we already had plane tickets and resort reservation at Boracay.

 

Before that, holy week is coming so another thing to watch out! Full of summer activities, fun and adventures are coming to our barkadahan!

 

These pictures are our tamby last March 5-6, 2010 at NAIA 2, MOA, and Lumban. Just want to post these pictures. Nothing else just fun, actually last Friday after my work, I went home to get my bag and went to MOA to meet my friends. We eat at Max’s restaurant then hang out at around the mall including the sea side at that mall; then went to Zest air ticketing office for reservation before going home. At my friend’s quarters, we chat all night before we sleep. Take some online social networking. The next day we went to NAIA 2 we just to drop by and accompany my friend because he is working there. Then we go back to MOA to pay the reservation ticket for our Boracay. And do some shopping and tamby before we went home. I took the jeepney going to Buendia while my friend took a bus going to Mandaluyong. Because I will go home to Lumban, what a 3hrs traveled by bus or van. I arrived at Lumban at around 9pm, then eat my dinner before going to my tamby with friends again, were so excited because I show to them our ticket confirmation and our itinerary for Boracay. That weekend is so busy for my tamby! Well so happy to meet them again after a week. Moment with my friends is such a priceless things and a lifetime memories.

 

Thanks,

Good day! As part of Lumban's yearly and historically tradition of celebrating the end day festivity of San Sebastian or also known as "Lupe" for this past generation, we, a new group of youth, organized and established a newly "samahan" called "Tropa ni BRO", a group of compromise, responsible, and dynamic youth, with long years of friendship since the beginning of school days in Lumban. Were composed of mostly professional graduates from different universities and colleges around the country; and well experienced and success in different work fields with mostly licensed on their respective career. A new group who's vision is to have a lifetime achievements for everybody and someday to be known in our town like other organization that's now famous and name by the townsfolk.

 

For this event, since were just starting to build the group, we decided to seek for your help. Any help from your well blessed family is highly appreciated. And we will be thankful very much for this help and considered it as your cooperation instead of help for our group. You may also join the group and welcome to become new member to develop, organize and promote more coming events and actively participate to other activities. Hoping for your support and success for this and coming event.

 

Thanks you very much,
