cuteness can bite

More like the Gremlins hehe cute and deadly like the "toothfairy" in Hellboy II : The Golden Army haha. This cute critters by the way, are the long believed to be gone (extinct) pygmy tarsier in Indonesia. So shocked (i supposed) it bit one of its captors' (scientist) hand.This undated handout photo shows a creature called a pygmy tarsier, believed for the eight decades to have been extinct. One of the world's smallest and rarest primates, it was rediscovered in Indonesia by Texas A and M University professor Sharon Gursky-Doyen in August.

a day with Kapitan Bandila

taken at the Men's Health Urbanathlon 2008 held at UP, Diliman (Philippines). my friends got this chance to meet and greet the famous Kapitan Bandila watching the urban obstacles race competition. he was far out impressed by the way, and congratulated the first placer who clocked in at an unbelievable pace of 33 minutes and 41 seconds. and it was a 10K obstacle run. Being the gagong palaboy that i am, i watched as men, women, teens and kids finished their runs. surprised that yup, no matter what body type you have, old or young, endurance, passion, and patience do count.

LABELS
Labels are words that we use to identify something and/or someone.
Labels are used to give structure.

A label is a brand.
A label is a name.
A label is an institution.
It is also a group.
An organization.

Labels give a sense of meaning to those that we can’t understand.
Labels erases fear of the unknown.
Labels are sometimes a laughing matter,
Because of its simplicity to operate in big matters
Such as identification and description.

But a label can also be a hindrance.
It can become a means to an end.
It can also instill fear
Create pandemonium and chaos.
A label can become much bigger than its actual carrier.
It can become a barrier
Bigger and deeper than the Barrier Reef.

A label, aside from all its pros and cons
Can actually become a sanctuary.
Where everyone hides
And some would disappear into.
Labeling is man’s capability
to minimize everything into a single word.
It's what we called branding.
Putting tags and claims to acquire property,
A notion to be noticed
To be be important
Apart from everything man deemed unimportant.
Of differentiating bad from good
Even if it means to shove, all the dirt under the rag.


A label.
Little do we know, that a simple word
Can mean a heck lot more than it seems.

Black is the new Red, White, and Blue

Personally, I don’t really give a damn about the U.S. Presidential Election 2008. Between, Barack Obama and John McCain, they’re both a draw. Though they would greatly affect the world at large, I can’t really judge them unless they have already worked their ass off. On character, they’re both at their level, though they’re ages apart. Their platforms, well it’s nothing but the usual politician spiels (which by the way remains to be seen). On ideologies, they may differ, as it affects their root persona. But by closely comparing, they’re both the same, but with different tacks on handling things, solving problems, giving sound and definite solutions. Individually, they fought two different battles which showcased their true prowess–one shows his uncannily courageous leadership skills and the other, an underdog.

Just finished lunch when my friend announced that “it’s finished.”
At first I didn’t understand. What the fuck is finished? Did I missed a practically good joke? And then it dawned on me as I was seeing on her monitor the victory party of some sort. Obama wins the 44th U.S.Presidency. Barack Obama won. The underdog of the game. The multi-racial candidate. The youngest presidential candidate ever to have won. The first, black American President. John McCain put up a good fight. He may have conceded, but his honor is intact. And nothing more can be much greater than that.

Congratulations! U.S. President Barack Obama.
And best regards at your new position of being America’s ship captain.
