Respecting Our Parents

Saturday, November 21st, 2009

How do you show your respect to your parents? Do you show your respect to them by following their advices?

I respect my parents. I follow their advices. I don’t shout at them. I greet them on their birthday and anniversary. I ask for their permission when I go to remote places.

How do you respect your parents? If you want to share your story about respecting your parents, please feel free to leave a comment here.

Excerpt from the “Flight of the Phoenix” movie

Saturday, November 21st, 2009

When I watched the “Flight of the Phoenix” movie, I can’t forget the sentences said by one of the characters. He said something like this: “Every man has reason to live.  Man wants to live if he has family, if there’s a woman that he truly loves. If you can’t give him someone to love, maybe you should give him something to do so he will have reason to live.”

The sentences above are not the exact sentences but thoughts sound like that. The character mentioned above who said the sentences would like to let people know that man will do everything he can do for the sake of his family and for his special someone (a woman whom he truly loves). Man will do everything he can do if he has great desire to make his dreams come true.

On the first round, Cotto dominated the fight. On the second round, Pacquiao dominated the fight. On the third round, Cotto was knocked down once. Second and third round was dominated by Pacquiao. On the fourth round, Cotto was knocked down again. Their fight was almost done in round 4 since Pacquiao started his finishing punches. However, the bell rang. Cotto was saved by the bell in round 4.

Round 2 through round 12, Pacquaio dominated. Pacquiao threw so many punches and many of those heavy punches landed to Cotto’s face. Hard and heavy punches of Pacquiao cause the bleeding from different parts of Cotto’s face.

Round 12 was a very nice round. Manny Pacquiao threw so many punches to Miguel Cotto. The referee stopped the fight when he noticed that Cotto was in danger. The referee declared that Cotto was not able to fight. Thus, Manny Pacquiao won by Technical Knockout (TKO) in Round 12.

Another victory for Manny Pacquiao!!!

Playing basketball with Rivereo friends

Friday, November 13th, 2009

I used to work at Rivereo. Rivereo is my second job.

My friends from Rivereo invited me to play basketball somewhere in Makati City. I confirmed my attendance in that game. We played basketball last Friday, November 13, 2009. I was happy for I saw my old friends. I was still tired that time for I just played basketball last Thursday with my Accenture friends. Anyway, the game was awesome! I had a very nice game. :)

I played there not only to have some physical activity but my main purpose is to know how my old friends are doing.

Playing basketball with Accenture friends

Friday, November 13th, 2009

Last Thursday, November 12, 2009, I played basketball with my Accenture friends. We played from 6PM to 8PM. It’s not healthy to stay and work in the office the whole day so we decided to play basketball to have some physical activity. We enjoyed playing the game. In that game, I gained more friends. I knew how everyone behave when they’re outside of the office.

Laser Extreme

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

Last Friday, November 06, 2009, my friends and I went to “Market Market” mall in Taguig City, Philippines and we played Laser Tag at Laser Extreme. I enjoyed the game. It’s so exciting. We’re like in a battlefield and shooting each other. After the game, Laser Extreme gave us the results of our game. Results were printed in a nice paper with the statistics of our game. It was indicated there the complete details including our scores and rankings after playing the Laser Tag game.

I encourage you to play laser tag at Laser Extreme. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.

TGIF week 45 Year 2009

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

It’s Friday again but I’m still busy. There are so many tasks to finish today but I’m not sure if I can finish them all. I believe that every tasks can be done correctly if I focus on doing it. I consider the deadline but I don’t rush it. Because if I will rush it, I’ll make lots of errors. I always feel good while I am doing my tasks.

I’m looking forward to happy weekends. I’ll spend my weekends with my friends. I’ll also spend time for studying to develop my skills in the field of Information Technology.

How to be happy?

Are you happy? If you’re happy, keep it up. If you’re not, I think you need to know how to be happy.

There’s a simple way to be happy. To be happy, make other people happy. How to make other people happy? Try to give them gifts on their birthday. True happiness occur when you show your love to other people and when you show them that you care for them.

A Very Busy Day

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

Today, I have lots of things to do. When I woke up this morning, work came into my mind. But before I took a bath, I read my goals and plans in life. My goals and plans are written in a piece of paper. I placed it in my bed. I read it before I sleep and when I wake up in the morning.

Before I went to office, I already have my plans of what to do the whole day. I always give time for developing my skills. Before I start my work, I read CNN news for 15 minutes and I read computer book (Java, Oracle) for 30 minutes. I go to office early because I need to work for nine hours. I will not be adding the 45 minutes (spent in reading news and studying to develop my skills) to my nine hours work. I stay in the office for 10 hours a day in average.

Law of Attraction

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

Have you heard about law of attraction before? Other people apply this law of attraction intentionally. Others apply this unintentionally. You probably apply this law unintentionally.

What is law of attraction by the way? It’s about attracting things that you want or don’t want to have. For example, if you always think of debt, you will attract debt. It doesn’t matter even if what you are thinking of is about getting out of debt. Focus on prosperity and you will attract more prosperity into your life.

Another application of law of attraction is that if you say “I won’t be late at work”. The thing that will happen is that you’ll be late. I’m sure that you’ll be late more often if you say “I won’t be late”. Choose the words that you say. The word “late” is still there so the possible thing that will happen is you’ll be late. Try to say something like this “I’ll be early”. The word “early” is there so you will be really early.

That’s how I define law of attraction. :)
