Dedication

Last night it was cold and it has been these past nights.. My lips are getting dry more often thanks to the yuletide season! I woke up with a redish lips, it burst upon the coldness, shouldn't have used the aircon. ((: The breeze of the wind compliments well with the humid morning; perfect sun, just-right temperature, birds chirping in the garden, a pleasant way to start the day.

Later today I have a basketball game which is so important for my team and to myself either. I promise to my lola a year ago that whenever my team reach the finals, she has to watch. After two conferences my team fell short but tonight is about redemption. The victory tonight means my team will finally have it's first appearance in the finals as well with my lola, so it's about winning the competition and my promise to lola -- hitting two birds with one stone is my very goal today.

I know this would be a tough test to my team since we've dropped twice in the same situation before. I'm hopeful that this is the time to jump over the hurdle because we've learned enough. I'll do my best to let my lola watch me play in the championship, I'll make her proud of me. It's duly time to unwrap the promise of yesterday.

Physical game is a welcome site but violence is another thing.

As I rest in my bed this late afternoon.. I've watched a collegiate basketball game between the Letran Knights and the San Sebastian Stags. The PCCL (Philippine Collegiate Champioship League) is near the tournament's conclusion as the games today we're the last prior the final four wars which will be staged this coming Saturday. Letran is the only team that beat the San Sebastian at the elimination of this year's NCAA so I was excited to watch the ball game knowing this would be a tightly contested match.

The San Sebastian Golden Stags are the NCAA defending champions. On the other hand, the Letran Knights are champions in their own minds as they hold a victory over the league champions. The knights are known to be a physical team. Hence no one is going to give it up without a hell of a fight, with this kind of context, it spells no less than a war.


Jam Cortez, Letran's PF -- If you're really a good basketball player, why can't you hit the ring instead? 

Physical game is a welcome site but violence is another thing. Letran Knights were down by a big margin the whole game as the San Sebastian Stags showed a fantastic basketball performance from start towards the end, however their opponents were giving out unnecessary actions like throwing elbows and other dirty tricks that promotes violence but it was neglected by the stags as they kept their composure and focus even though they took lots of love in the competition, indeed a classy act. The game unfolded with 5 unsportsman-like fouls for the honorable knights.

The Letran Knights is a notorious team for being more than "physical" or should I say way beyond the description? It's true that basketball is a contact sport but actions which are for combat sports per se are clearly not allowed. Letran Knights-basketball is projecting an unhealthy method of competition. Hurting a player will not earn a point neither respect. Playing dirty is not going make a basketball player better, so it has no room for basketball at all, otherwise just go hit a sport where it belongs. ((:

Money Matters


Money can't buy happiness but it can buy marshmallows, which are kinda the same thing -- it reminds me of a friend whom in a terrifying angst last night because his gf left him over a person who has a huge bag of marshmallows. ((:

Ganon talaga ang buhay.. Money can buy everything, thus even the intangibles can be bought, yet dignity and pride are the top sellers. Reality bites but we can't bite back which hurts the most.

A Voice for Change



Everyone of us has a responsibility in our society, just like in home..we care, and that's the mentality we should keep when we set our feet outside of our doorsteps. There are handful of problems now outside our windows which we should be parting in like choosing the right leaders for our country, saving our planet from climate change, solving recession, and many more issues in different magnitudes. These problems can escalate to a far worse scenario if we will not do our part.

We can move mountains if we only care. Simple deeds that would help the complicated problems of our society that seriously threatens US--who will suffer but can cease it from happening. Let our voices be heard for a common cause.

Umpisahan natin sa ating mga sarili. Through little things like throwing our trash into the garbage cans, unplugging our appliances if we're done using it, participating in the election, and yet more daily activities that we haven't thought that can make a difference but surely it can. Let's start thinking and caring, we can all be heroes. (:
