Twitter Time!

10 comments
I already had my twitter account months ago. But, I was not that into it. Well, I got soooooooo many social sites accounts that I can't organize all of 'em. For once in my cyber life, I had been addicted to Multiply. Then I got addicted to Facebook, specifically Farm Town and Pet Society. But now, my blogs need not to be jealous, for I offer my 100% attention to it. :D

Just recently, President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo (PGMA) had her last (I hope so) State of the Nation Address (SONA). And GMANews.tv got news about Arroyo's SONA hot topic in Internet discussions. I got so curious on what specific internet media had been used to discuss PGMA's SONA. Interestingly, it's on Twitter.


For the latest Philippine news stories and videos, visit GMANews.TV


That woke up my curiosity and had to re-'live' my twitter account. Well, it's the second push for me. The first one would be Patricia Bermudez-Hizon who actually testifies (sort of) my blog post, Danny Ildefonso and Marc Pingris (who, by the way, is back on the Giants) vs Ginebra Fan.

So there, I opened up my account earlier and have fun on twitting. The very first personality that I followed is no other than Francis 'Chiz' Escudero. It felt great that he actually responded to the tweets that he has been receiving. Making me admire him more. Just wanted to share tweets with him one of these days :D

And to my eagerness, I had installed OperaMini on my mobile phone just to keep in touch with my twitter account 24/7. Anyway, it's FREE!

It's Time! Are You Ready?

10 comments
When it's time, am I ready? Or shall I be overly worried of the things and persons that I have to leave behind? My answer, if not proudly, is timidly YES! I lack confidence in saying YES because I am not emotionally ready yet. But financially, I could loudly say YES!

It is exactly 2 years last July 21, 2009 of the insurance that I had purchased. I had bought it simply because I would want to attain financial security. Here's what I have in mind:

I had been giving around half of my salary to my mother every pay day for our daily expenses plus a thousand for my savings. The rest would be for my daily expenses, and sometimes, luxury. BUT, if ever God would have wanted me to join him that early; or if God would have wanted me to stay at home, where am I going to get all those money for our daily expenses? Hence, I had purchased an insurance to cover everything up for me once I won’t be able to sustain my financial obligations.

I thought it would be hard for me to pay for my insurance, but being so thrift (eating on a less expensive fast food but of healthy servings, staying home for a date rather than tirelessly wandering around the malls, buying only when needed rather than when wanted, and a whole lot more), I was able to pay my bills on time. Not to mention the extra earnings I got from blogging (where I already earned PhP15,000.00) and from my mini sari-sari store (only a month old).

As for emergency, I could always count on my passbook that had been fed a thousand per pay day and from my coin bank. How about you? Are you ready?

Touch a blogger: Tie a yellow ribbon for Cory Aquino!

7 comments
I don't know much about politics. But I do know that the color yellow had been used to symbolize Pres. Corazon Aquino's victory over dictatorship; thus, gaining freedom and democracy. Now that she's life is on the line, I am joining the Tie a Yellow Ribbon Prayer Campaign for her immediate recovery. The rule is to blog about it. Since I don't have any to share about her political career, I just searched the net on what yellow ribbon signifies and find this from Wikipedia:

A yellow ribbon is a symbol with various meanings, mostly associated with those waiting for the return of a loved one or of military troops who are temporarily unable to come home. It is also sometimes used at county and state fairs in the United States, where it indicates a fourth-place finish in a contest. Recently, it has been used to symbolize support for the International Suicide Prevention Program and the Black Saturday bushfires in Victoria, Australia. It has also been used recently to raise awareness of Testicular Cancer, Endometriosis, and Madeleine McCann.

It as well specifically state it's meaning for our country, the Philippines:

In the Philippines, the yellow ribbon was used in the 1980's during Martial Law as a homecoming symbol of opposition Senator Benigno Aquino, Jr. Senator Aquino was forced to go into exile in the United States for treatment of a heart problem; this was due to suspicions that doctors at the Philippine Heart Center might have been in duplicity with then dictator President Ferdinand E. Marcos. Upon his scheduled return to the Philippines, yellow ribbons were tied along the street and roads of Metro Manila by his supporters in order to welcome his return back to the country; instead, Senator Aquino was assassinated. This symbolism was inspired by the song Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree by Tony Orlando and Dawn.

Recently, the yellow ribbon is again being used as a symbol of support to the ailing former President Corazon "Cory" C. Aquino, the widow of Senator Aquino. In continuing her husband's struggle, she adopted the yellow ribbon and the colour as a whole for her campaign. Cory Aquino was successful in toppling the Marcos regime via the EDSA People Power Revolution of 1986. Mrs. Aquino has recently been suffering from advanced stage colon cancer and once more the yellow ribbon is being used by her family, friends, and allies as a sign of solidarity with the former president.
And with this, I am touching a blogger. As for my yellow ribbon, I grabbed the one made by my blogger friend Jhong:



I am encouraging my co-bloggers to join this prayer campaign. It could serve as a sign of our gratitude to Pres. Aquino for serving our mother land.

  1. Create an entry entitled: “Touch a blogger: Tie a yellow ribbon for Cory Aquino!“. A link to this original entry will be appreciated, but is not required.(barriosiete.com)
  2. Post a yellow ribbon in your blog for President Cory Aquino. Whatever form of yellow ribbon that your creative imagination can come up with.
  3. Invite other bloggers to tie a yellow ribbon for Cory.

Happy Birthday Love of My Life

16 comments
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday,
Happy Birthday to you!


That's what I sang for the love of my life last night before we had our dinner. It's his birthday, that's why it's my treat. This time, we had our dinner at TGI Friday's at Trinoma. Actually, we dined there so that the crews would sing to him a Happy Birthday with a complimentary ice cream. However, we're a bit shy; hence, we just ended up eating our dinner and leaving the bistro afterwards.

Here are the pictures of what we had that really made us full.


Mango Shake for me and Grape Freeze for my Angel


Broccoli Bowl Soup


Chicken Ceasar Salad with additional Cheese and Bacon


Dragonfire Chicken


Our celebration ain't over yet. We still have our date tomorrow at Mall of Asia to watch Harry Potter 6 at IMAX. :)


I hope that I will always be by his side in all his birthdays for the rest of my life.

I Got Sleeping Disorder

21 comments
I got sleeping disorder, and it's making me lazy waking up each morning, aside from the fact that I Need Some Motivation.

Before, I used to stay up late at night because of blogging. Well, that was when my Page Rank was still 2. I had been taking advantage on all available opportunities in pay per post sites. However, I know that was unhealthy. I tried to discipline myself by sleeping once I felt sleepy. And I was successful.

However, I don't know when it started, but I noticed that when I sleep early, say 9PM, I will always wake myself up at 12 midnight. Well, I don't get up to drink or something, I will just close my eyes and sleep again. At first, I thought my body clock is merely adjusting to my new sleeping schedule. But, waking up in the middle of the night had been consistent for me. Thus, I tried sleeping at almost 12 midnight. I got a sound sleep then.

But that sound sleep only happened for one night. The following night, I got to wake up at around 3AM, waaaaahhhhh... What is happening to me? Is this because of my Starbucks Indulgence?

Last night, I really got sleepy at around 9PM; hence, I immediately lull myself to sleep. Only to wake up at 12 midnight, hu hu hu. Normally, I was awaken by a dream which I easily forgot upon opening my eyes. I got nothing to do so I tried sleeping once more. Too bad, I woke up at around 2AM or 3AM. More so, I had a nightmare. I had been hearing a whispher person, and I can hardly move.

Got any piece of advice?

Proud to Be a Human Being

4 comments
I would always proudly say that I am a Filipino. Despite of all the negative news about my country, I still believe that there are so much that I should be proud of. However, if someone is stateless, what should he be proud of? Can he simply say that he is “Proud to Be a Human Being”?

I have here a Clip of Knaebel's Action uploaded in YouTube. The clip shows how Knaebel destroyed his passport and visa; hence, declaring himself as a free ‘stateless’ human being. I have the video embedded in here.



News said that, despite of being stateless, he was able to live temporarily with his friend and was able to open an account from a local bank in India. How did he do it? Mainly because the local bank manager, with much pleasure, approved an application of a stateless person living by the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi.

I know not much about Gandhi. But the thing that I remember about Gandhi is that, he is the one that defied discrimination. Well, if you take a deeper thought on what Knaebel had done, he, in one way or another, just wanted to be ‘free’. Isn’t it that discrimination had been attached to one’s state or race? Without being attached to any race, there would be no reason for any prejudice.

How about you? What are your thoughts about Knaebel’s act?

Learning in Friendship

18 comments
If I remember it right, I had a couple posts about friendship here in my blog: On Friendship and On Friendship II. I had stated there how much I value my friends, I really do. That's me. I am really bothered when someone grew angry on me, no matter whose fault it may be. A simple change from my friends would already trigger my worried feelings, kinda paranoid I guess.


Again and again, I am very much thankful to my high school friends, Men and Susie. They were the one's whom I really treated as my bestest friends. We may never got to communicate always, but I always have the assurance that they would lend a hand every time I needed one. I know they were just a text away.

I am happy that I got to have bonding with my sister and my cousin every once in a while, a girls day out. I guess we grew much closer now than before. It's fun to have your family as your friends. It's the best feeling in the world. For everyone may turn their backs on you, but your family will always stay, no matter what, no matter how bad you can become.

As for my online friends, I don't know if I really had failed on my decision on investing so much feelings for them, or it is just a part of learning something new emotionally. It's hard to shrug off my shoulders knowing that someone is mad at me. Am I to blame? If yes, then I am really sorry for all the troubles I had caused them. Probably I just thought that our friendship is of greater level than simply having our 'common denominator'. I was wrong. I had failed them. I had hurt them. But I guess it goes both ways. They were wrong. They had failed me. They had hurt me. It was of the purest intention about my 'Reconciliation' post. But, as the days passed by, I believe, everything was history. It is real sad to reminisce those days feeling, rather knowing, that it ain't gonna happen anymore.

But I guess that's life. It is just one of the millions of learning in friendship that I had in my almost 28 years of existence. It brings tears to my eyes. It brings hurt in my heart. But I just have to accept the fact that I cannot control my friends' feelings. I cannot and would never force them to love me back. They say its the best thing in friendship, there's no written commitment. It is their choice to stay. It is their choice to leave. The best learning in friendship that I had with the things that happened is that, I should not mourn for their loss, rather, I should rejoice for I got to be their 'friend' and had the privilege to be a part of their lives in some way. Anyway, I need not to be sad at all, I still love them, they still have a place in my heart, waiting for their forgiveness for whatever wrong I have done.

With that 'failed friendship', I still got sooooooooooo many things to be happy about. I still have my family, my angel, and my best friends. I am blessed, I have YOU.

Laundry Bag for His Birthday

9 comments
My angel will be celebrating his birthday next week. I’m so excited because we will be watching Harry Potter at IMAX as part of our celebration (feels like I’m the celebrant, ha ha). Anyway, I am planning to give him a personalized laundry bag for his birthday. Yeah, it was just a simple gift, but it’s the thought that counts right? At the same time, I knew he needed that laundry bag. His work requires him to travel that often, and this bag would help him organize his stuff in his traveling bag. I would have it monogrammed by his initials. Good thing, Posy Lane offers such personalized gift items.



I also found a towel wrap for myself from the same site. I find it nice since you can wrap it around yourself without worrying from being pulled. Moreover, I can also put my name at the ends of my towel. And that would be great. But of course I won’t forget my sweet little niece. I will always have something for her. And this time, I will buy her one of the lovely and colorful kindergarten nap mats from Posy Lane.

So Proud of Danny Ildefonso

11 comments
Okay, before anyone gets me wrong again, I wanted to tell the world that I am a PBA fan, just like my fave li'l sis. In the Finals series between Barangay Ginebra Kings (BGK) and San Miguel Beermen (SMB), I am cheering for both. I am cheering for Chris Pacana, Cyrus Baguio, Chico Lanete, Eric Menk, Danny Ildefonso, Marc Pingris, Don Don Hontiveros, Jonas Villanueva, and Bon Bon Custodio. So, let's proceed...

It's Game 6, and as what I had expected, the SMB won, requiring a Game 7 to end the series. It could be the SMC management's prerogative, or just the PBA. Anyway, as always, I only got to watch the second half. My mother thinks that I'm crazy, she cannot determine to which team I am cheering for, ha ha. Well, I can't blame her, I cheered for both teams.

SMB's victory tonight is a plus for me. I got a bit of excitement as I saw Danny I crossing out their third win. It simply means that he is the Best Player of the Game (BPG). He had been interviewed, and the very first thing he does, is to greet his daughter who is currently at the hospital. He had offered the game to his daughter. And I find it so sweet.

More importantly, Danny I finally got the chance to have his public apology regarding the 'incident' back in Game 2. It is so humble for a player to do that, admitting his mistake, saying sorry for what he had done. I guess I need not to elaborate about it anymore. Case UnClosed.

I am simply inspired to write this post, because I am 'So Proud of Danny Ildefonso'. I don't have a video of his public apology, but I do love to share his finished dunks on Game 5 (probably paying for his failed dunk on Game 4). Enjoy! or Get annoyed!



It'll be Game 7, a do or die game, on Friday. May the best team win. No matter who wins the championship, it won't make me sad, 'coz I got soooooooo much to be happy about <3 *wink*

You’re the 1, Goldilocks!

Yesterday, me and my angel celebrated our 8th year anniversary. It is really overwhelming knowing that we still wake up each morning, knowing that our love for each other still remains. Those 8 years that we've been together are really memorable. But, I guess, part of every relationship are misunderstandings that tests the intensity of our love for each other. And yes, we are lucky for surviving all those tests, 'coz we are still holding each others hands today... and for the rest of our lives.

I believe, the most tragic part of our love story was way back 5 years ago. Our relationship was on the rocks then. We haven't communicated for about a week. We never exchange text messages nor calls during those times. He had emailed me once, and I replied once. The feeling is so awkward. Until one day...

I was not at home. I got somewhere else to go. (Oh my, I am already teary eyed this time. Okay, let's proceed.) My angel texted my mother that he would go to our house. But my mother replied that I'm not around. My angel said that it is exactly what he wanted, for he would love to talk to my mother, just the two of 'em.

He arrived at our house, no me to be found. He and my mother talked for about an hour or so. My mother even told me that he is teary eyed when they were talking about me, and our rattled relationship. He then left, without waiting for me to arrive.

Then I got home. He was already gone. I proceed to my room. And from my li'l bed I found out a note from the love of my life, a very unique rose (a combination of white and pink), and a Chocolate Crinkle Cookie from Goldilocks (my favorite).
  • Note: He is not a type of guy who normally wrote what he feels. He simply show it by action. But this time, he made an effort to do so just to show how much he cared.
  • Rose: It is the very first rose I got from him. He told me that the rose (combination of pink and white) symbolizes that he already found the girl that he would love to spend the rest of his life with.
  • Chocolate Crinkle Cookie (Goldilocks): He would want me to reminisce those times wherein we have to sit (just the two of us), share our thoughts, our lives, and our love, over the box of these sweets. The times when we were truly, madly, deeply in love with each other. Funny, but this sweet nothing really makes our relationship stronger.

    You're the One Goldilocks because you keep our love alive!

Then, without me knowing, I was already bursting into tears. (Actually, I am too right now.) It's the sweetest thing a man could do to me. He specifically asked my mother to lay those things on my bed. I can't help but cry (tears of joy, love, and being loved).

He really knew what will make me happy, what will make my firm heart tender. Those simple things would really mean a lot if it comes from someone who loves you so dearly. And I guess you know what happened next. We had reconciled. And we're on our 8th year and 1 day today, and I will continue counting even until after forever.

I Need Some Motivation

14 comments
I've been like this for a week now. I don't know, but I just don't get enough motivation to perform well here at work. It's the thinking that I am able to deliver what has been asked from me that makes me feel this way.

Everyday, as I wake up, I would always hesitate from standing up. Laziness would always play in my mind: should I go to work or just file a sick or emergency leave? Oh my, why am I feeling this way?

I thought before that I was lucky for having my work here. I am on super flexible schedule and a lot more "stuffs" that others would really envy. But those perks had been a disadvantage for me. Those had made me so stubborn in being productive at work. I do beat deadlines. I do comply with requirements. I even do some initiatives with our group. But I just felt that I'm still unproductive, stubborn, lazy, and hard-headed.

This is not the kind of work that I wanted. I wanted to excel more in my first love: programming. But, there's not much of opportunities. Or maybe, I could have made myself an opportunity, but I am just too lazy, influenced by the people around me (who do the same "stuffs").

I guess I'm on a cross-road now. Should I leave my present job now? It ain't making me happy. But, the thought of being a newbie in a new company gives me jitters. I don't want to make another adjustment. But, if I stay here, I have to live with the disadvantages, or be strong and make a change. What am I going to do?

What I would have really wanted is to be a freelance programmer and own a business. But, I am just too coward, ha ha. If only I could earn the same amount in blogging as I do here in my work, I guess I would happily leave my work now and be a full time blogger instead.

It's just Monday, I just wish that it's already Saturday. But wait, tomorrow will be a great day, it's our 8th year anniversary! *wink*

Starbucks Indulgence

15 comments
Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, I've been to Starbucks and indulge with my favorite coffee, Caramel Mochiato (hot) and Java Chip (cold). I don't know what's with that coffee shop that makes me crave for it most of the time, specifically after lunch. Anyway, I don't develop any guilt feeling eventhough I have been getting addicted to it, most specially when my drink's a hot one. According to studies, it is healthy to have hot drinks after meals. Thus, it gave me reason not to feel guilty, ha ha.



While most of you guys would feel awake right after a cup of coffee, it's the other way around for me. As me and my officemates go back to the four corners of our office, I would definitely feel sleepy, ha ha ha. I don't know why, I just do.

Well, I don't know if I would be completing my lunch today with another cup of Caramel Mochiato. Hmmm, for now I am craving for Dairy Queen's Chocolate Almond or Caramel Cashew, ha ha.

I am Going Crazy Over PBA

9 comments
I really waited for Game 4 to end before I make this post. Earlier, my mother told me that I am really going crazy. Why? Well because I love Cyrus Baguio of the Barangay Ginebra Kings (BGK) but I am cheering for his opponent, the San Miguel Beermen (SMB), ha ha ha. Crazy me! I even told her that I am already satisfied merely seing Baguio's moves. In fact, I wanted to have Game 7, so as to see Baguio for a longer time before the PBA season's break, hee hee.

Alright, as for my reviews about the game earlier, I hate the fans that shout "BOO" over Danny Ildefonso and Marc Pingris. It's obvious that they were booing them because of the Game 2 incident. So what are they trying to imply? They were favoring the "die hard BGK fan" that had been the cause of the "incident". So, I guess I had a change of heart (for this game). I felt sad when Ildefonso failed to have his "dunk". Probably he is really frustrated about the crowd, and that he wanted to silence them. Well, Ildefonso, you still silenced them by your perimeter shots. Congratulations!

On the lighter side, I am really glad that Coach Jong Uichico always makes Baguio stay during the crucial minutes of the ballgame. That simply means that Uichico believed in Baguio's skills (just like with Chris Pacana last Fiesta Conference *miss him*). By the way, I have to hate Dorian PeƱa for the almost flagrant foul he had given to Baguio. *grrr* What I remember about Baguio's game tonight was his 3-point basket coming from JayJay Helterbrand's (awarded as the Most Valuable Player of the recently held Leo Awards) assist. As well as his cut to the basket accompanied by the KFC delivery assist of the quarter courtesy of Eric Menk.


Candid. Photo Credits to Hoops.Blink.Ph

Before I end this post, I would like to congratulate Jonas Villanueva for winning the Most Improved Player award. You really deserve it! As for the other winners, okay, you win, and I'm bitter, ha ha. Kerby Raymundo was not even nominated *argh*. Oh, by the way, Baguio was nominated in the Sportsmanship Award, but it is Ryan Reyes who grabs it. *sigh*

Anyway, congrats SMB for winning tonight's ballgame. The series is now tied at 2-2. Next game will be on Monday. So, I guess my next posts won't be about PBA, hee hee.

Danny Ildefonso and Marc Pingris vs Ginebra Fan

21 comments
I would have wanted to talk about the game last night, specially when Cyrus Baguio hit the 3 point shot that gives the Barangay Ginebra Kings (BGK) their first ever lead. However, I got intrigued by the "incident" that happened last Game 2 when Danny Ildefonso and Marc Pingris of San Miguel Beermen (SMB) ran after a "die-hard" BGK fan after SMB wins the game. (A Ron Artest similar incident).

For those of you who missed it, here's a video courtesy of dude3nuckle from YouTube.



You can read the full story from Sports & Tech sa Pilipinas.

I was a "former" BGK fan. I am more happy now to just be a fan of basketball and root not for a PBA team but for a PBA player. But of course, if there's a team that I would really wanted to win, that'll be Kerby Raymundo's team. But now that they're out of the conference, I would be cheering for Cyrus Baguio's team.

Okay, I'm getting off topic here. I just wanted to have my own comment about the "incident". I'm not a fan of Ildefonso. But from what I had read about this "incident" along with all the comments of BGK and SMB fans, I am on Ildefonso's side.

I had watched a number of games in Araneta Coliseum. And if it's BGK's game, the crowd will surely be a mammoth; specially if their opponent is the Purefoods TJ Giants (PF). But, even if BGK had been trailing behind with a double digit, I never shout anything against a player. I would normally shout BOOs. But I won't degrade any player. Even when I'm at PF's side, and it's BGK on the other. But cursing a player, worse a player's child who is currently suffering from cancer, is really below the belt. Ildefonso's attitude toward that "die hard" BGK fan is understandable. But, the attitude of the "die hard" BGK fan is not, just because his team lost.

Ildefonso had been suspended a game together with Marc Pingris, and they have to fine PhP30,000 and PhP10,000 respectively. Okay, that's the rule. BUT, I believe, the "die hard" BGK fan had to be penalized as well. The money that he had used to purchase his ticket to watch the game live is not enough for him to say those curses to a father whose heart is on his suffering child. THAT "die hard" BGK fan, for me, should be suspended as well.

Comment about Ildefonso's attitude that should have served as a "role model" to every children inside the coliseum arised. A father get dismayed knowing that his child seen the "incident". But, Ildefonso is not solely to be blamed. For that anonymous father who left that comment, if I may ask, haven't you said foul words during the game that your child could hear? Or were there no other fans around you throwing trash talks during the game that your child could hear? I guess you know what I'm pointing at. Well, just my personal opinion.

What's your thought about this?

Reconciliation

14 comments
A while ago, while I was on my way home (riding the bus), I send a message to a friend whom I haven't talk for quite some time now. I don't know, I just felt I wanted to.

Honestly, I had nothing against her anymore. The thing that made the friction between us, for me, is not that serious. But, that's not how it turned out to be.

I'm glad she replied. Although she admitted that she still on the process of forgiving and forgetting, that made me teary eyed ('coz of joy). I'm happy that in a way, we had communicated after a long time.

Sooner, I know we'll get reconciled. And I will be waiting to bring back the good old days. Miss her much!

Cyrus Baguio Addiction

15 comments
Oh no! Here I am again, getting addicted to PBA. I thought I had said goodbye to PBA the day Rain or Shine Elasto Painters (ROS) beat Purefoods TJ Giants (PF) in the Quarter Finals. But here I am, hoping to be at the Araneta Coliseum tonight, to see Cyrus Baguio in the hardcourt.

Last night, I had searched for his videos, pictures, and stuffs over the web. I had viewed a couple of videos and admired his humility. I had browsed only a few pictures of him, and mostly, low quality photos. Stuffs? He don't have any website. He has this social site but no updates are up. With that in mind, I am now thinking of creating a blog for him. Just like what I did for Chris Pacana. However, I have hesitations. So com'on, inspire me, ha ha.

My fave li'l sis told me to just create it. So probably, I will, if I got the time. I will be having pictures, videos, articles, and my own posts on that blog. For now, I would want to brag his photos here. I had grabbed these from Philippine Basketball Association's FaceBook account. I'm a fan :D


The reason why he had been called skyrus!

Cyrus Baguio vs Gabe Norwood. Gabe, where is your hand going to?

DEFENSE!

Barangay Ginebra Kings Grabs Game 1

6 comments
Yesterday is the Game 1 of the Best of Seven Finals Series between Barangay Ginebra Kings (BGK) and the San Miguel Beermen (SMB). Of course I watched it (on TV). I wanted to see the ankle breaker moves of my new crush, Cyrus Baguio, ha ha.

The game started around 7PM. I was not yet at home that time. I was still at the bus. Glad that we had requested the conductor to tune in to CS9. I was able to see the introduction of the players. It was great. All lights are off, and players are introduced one by one. I hardly hear the commentator since the bus is a little noisy, but, the moment I heard “from Iligan City”, I’m very much sure, it is Cyrus Baguio, weeeeeeeee.

I continued watching the game at home. Actually, I’m not all eyes and ears to it. As you may see, I had updated this blog’s layout while watching the game. I only focuses on the game whenever Baguio is in the hard court, ha ha.

I always see him asking for the ball whenever he was free to take a shot. Sadly, the one who has the ball won’t give it to him. *argh* Pwede naman kasing ipasa, hindi ba? Nonetheless, I am still happy seeing him play. Once he got grasp of the leather, he will surely show his acrobatic moves *blush*. I also heard the commentators saying that he had a great game, replacing Ronald Tubid due to foul trouble. Yiheee, so proud of him!

They won the game with JayJay Helterbrand as the Best Player. In the following games, I would really love to see Baguio being interviewed as the Best Player of the Game and eventually, the Finals MVP. *wink*
