Whats wrong with VECO and MCWD?

Do you know what it felt like going through a day with out a shower? Well, i dunno what went wrong but we had this water and electricity problem yesterday and today we still don't have water. I think the entire Cebu was affected with whatever problem the VECO and MCWD had these days.



My brother Josh got a work yesterday and since we don't have water and I don't want him to absent from his work so i tried to figure out to help him bath, at first, I was thinking that maybe there's some problem in our area alone but some of my friends were asking me through sms if we got a water so there i realize that its not just one area but i think the whole Cebu City especially the urban areas.



Back to my bro, in order for me to help him, I started inquiring to some friends who lived nearby unfortunately there out of reach.My last option was our office, we took a taxi and went to our office and there he was able to take a bath and was late for work but at least he had taken a bath. Our office saves his day.




Second day of having no water and its Sunday, I wasn't able to do much of my domestic routine during weekends. But I'm thankful that it rains, you know why because I was able to save some rain waters for the kitchen and bathroom use and well guess what.... I took a bath outside my place.



Although its kinda cold, i mean the rainwater is really cold but i still managed to go out, bought something not important on a walking distance store from my place just to get wet and took a picture of some teens playing basketball along the street while raining. Some were running just practically enjoying the rain and i find it good somehow cause i used to do what the kids did in my neighborhood when I was a littler back at the province. Rain water saves the day.



Tomorrow is Monday and I'm going to work,I hope that water will be fix by tonight. grrr... or else ill absent from work of which I don't like because there are lots of things to do.

The Best Expression of Love is TIME


I have been reading a lot lately, like The Countess below the Stairs authored by Eva Ibbotson and from whirlwind romance I shifted to a spiritual self help book of which I'm currently reading the Purpose Driven Life of the famous author Mr. Rick Warren # 1 new york times bestseller. As I was leafing through the pages, I found this topic about LOVE and find it right in fact I read this again and again because I for one experienced this just recently. So here it goes...


The best use of life is love, love should be your top priority, primary objective and greatest ambition. Love is not a good part of your life but the MOST important part. Relationships must have priority in your life above everything else, why? because life without love is worthless. Relationships is not just a part of our lives along with many other task but it is what life is all about (according to god).




Relationships, not achievements or the acquisition of things are what matters most in life. So why do we allow our relationships to get the short end of the stick? When our schedules become overloaded, we start skimming relationally,cutting back on giving the time, energy and attention that loving relationships require. Whats most important to God is displace by what is urgent.




Busyness is a great enemy of relationships. We become preoccupied with making a living, doing our work, paying bills and accomplishing goals as if these tasks are the point in life. They are not. The point of life is learning to love god and people. Love will last forever and it leaves a lasting heritage.




The importance of things can be measured by how much time we are willing to invest in them. The more time you give to something, the more you reveal its importance and value to you. (read this closely) If you want to know a person's priorities, just look at how they use their time.




Time is our most precious gift because we only have a set amount of it.We can make more money but we cant make more time. When we give someone our time, its the same thing as giving them a portion of our life that we will never get back. Our time is our life, that is why the greatest gift we can give someone is our time.




Its not enough when we say relationships are important, we must prove it by investing time in them. Words alone are worthless. Relationships takes time effort and the best way to spell love is T-I-M-E. The essence of love is not what we think or do or provide for others, but how much we give of ourselves. The most desired gift of love is focused attention. Love concentrates so intently on another that we forget our self at that moment. When we give our most precious asset-our time,its the same thing as making sacrifice for we value the person and that is basically the essence of love.




We cannot give without loving, but we cannot love without giving "god so love the world and he gave..." Love means giving up- yielding our preferences, comfort, goals, security, money, energy, or time for the benefit of someone else.





When is the best time to love? " Whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone, use every chance you have for doing good, whenever you possibly can, do good to those who need it, never tell your neighbor to wait until tomorrow if you can help them now". So the answer to the question above is NOW, because we don't know how long will we have the opportunity. Circumstances change, people die, children grow up and we have no guarantee of tomorrow. If we want to express love, we'd better do it NOW.




In a nutshell, the best use of life is LOVE. The best expression of love is TIME. The best time to love is NOW.

My real gun firing experience


Firing is one thing I wanted to try it myself long before. But do you know that firework’s and guns are also the things that I don’t want to keep. These two different things produce sounds that make me scared to the point of covering my ears and closing my eyes that’s how I am when I was a kid.

M16


As I was making a draft for my blog, I remember my teenage days, it is the time where a kid like me was so curious about so many things around me. Just like any kids I do have a lot of fears but by circumstances I was able to conquer some of my fears.



Well so much for that, me and my officemates has this long time plan to try firing. If I remember it right this was like a 2008 plan, but to no luck or maybe everybody was so busy with individual schedules we weren’t able to make it happen. The owner of the firing range is the father in law of Siegfried so I guess anytime we want to do the firing we could really make it. We just need to loosen a bit with our work schedules.



January this year when I first experienced the real gun firing with professional instructor, at first I was hesitant because I don’t know if I can do it, but my friend RC owner of the guns I’m using keep on challenging and insisting to try, I kept on saying no and next time but somehow at the back of my mind something is telling me the opposite, why should I not try anyway if this is the only way not to fear gun anymore in my whole life so then I took RC’s challenged.




As a newbie of course I do not know the do’s and don’ts of holding a gun, when to engaged, what’s the proper position and stuffed. A lot of basic things to remember when you’re at the firing range or when you’re carrying a gun in public and one of those is to “always consider your gun loaded”.



I was able to used two different kinds of 45 caliber and M16 the one with sniper. I wowed after seeing my alpha’s shots, it’s not that Im boasting but according to the instructor im easy to teach with and quite a good shooter even if im just a newbie and if I just keep practicing I can even join the BACTUS competition as RC wants me to join but im not confident enough and its gonna be so soon.



Oh boy.. another one heck of experienced.Im starting to get addicted to firing and might as well get a gun for myself nyahaha.. Im just kidding. Least now I know how to used gun. It feels so good to get into the firing range, it also helps to release your anger. Enjoy watching my vid and if you want to join our next firing adventure, do leave a message at my chatters box or a comment for me to contact you. Godbless us all!
