After three days of constant moonsoon rain, Sun peeks out on a cloudy day, a welcome news for clothes hanging out the clothesline, and for some birds chirping joyfully.
Watching some old movies from two cable TV stations, changing channels in between scenes, Why? on WOWOW 56 its "Midnight Cowboy" and Cinemax 30 its Wyatt Earp"
You should see the looks of Angelina Jolie on his fathers face, Jon Voight must be on his Twenties when he made this hustling type flick co-starring Dustin Hoffman(Ratso). I've seen this movie lots of time but still had that appeal on me, maybe for those scenes that were cut off out of censorship(X-rated)issues at that time of the late 60's. A Best Picture and Best Director runaway Oscar winner.
The saddest part that always touched me and makes me teary eyed was that of the scene on the bus ride, when both characters have to make it to Florida to evade the winter back in New York, Ratso's dreamland of sunny beaches and palm trees,Sun to rejuvenate his failing health.
Backside, Cowboy Joe Buck was relaying out plans for their migratory stay and then Ratso, blank stared eyes, heads leaning on the bus windows,life less didnt make it down Miami. A compelling movie about life struggle in the city of New York...
Can't help smiling for that resemblance looks of Jon Voight to that of his Angelina Jolie, One of the best performance of Dustin Hoffman as well.
Kevin Costner as the Western Legendary "Wyatt Earp", scene on, When he was drunk begging for a quarter for an honest decent meal. Out of frustration beating a man to death for some money and jailed for the crime of murder, was bailed out by his father in law (Gene Hackman) and the parting ways to go Arizona on vagabond just to elude arrest and prosecutions that will surely put him to death by hanging.
Landed a job as a bufallo hide skinner, works on the sleazy joint as card dealer,and end up as a lawman with his friends.
Of course the famous gunfight at O.K.Corral,with Doc Holiday and the Masterson brothers.
To cut it short these two inspiring movies tells us the lessons and fates of struggling to live on life no matter how wayward it is, always have that hope and linger on to it, ease our troubled mind and absorb frustrations, not to give in but hang on to survive the turbulent times.
Not a bad Saturday after all, So the words of the day to live on is..
"Keep on trackin, and move along"... Hasta la Vista! Blogfrenz!

The second encounter ...by mistake!

T'was this morning that I came into the chatroom and was able to chance upon a young lady, One of the famous blog maker in Asian FriendFinder.
Short live talks after that of my first with the blonde from US, but this time the second is in such a hurry for her noontime lunch.
I'm referring to Toukki, the girl with the friendly antics to boot and the witty one, I suppose.
Truth of the matter is that I'm trying to peek on to see around if "mydogateit "is inside the English room, and to my exciterment, I saw Ann(is this your nickname?) or "toukki" instead.
You can count on your fingers the lines she had thrown on me.... I asked her about it and she was multi tasking according to her....chatting and blogs at the same time. Slow on posting but with laughs on the other end.
She's also on line with Bella ,But in a couple of minutes, she had to take her lunchbreak and bade goodbye.
At least a live conversation with the topmost AsiaFind "bratinellas'...First with "Deb the Pup" and second with "Toukki a.k.a. Ann"...(Whos next?)
Here's hoping for more "chatfrenz"... Hasta la vista! and Good luck to me!(hahahaha)

She's not a girl who misses much...

Most of the time I always caught her sneaking in...Maybe to see her crush if he's hanging around the Chatrooms of our local friendfinder. Seems lost at first but once she started coming into the picture,A little bit out of control with giggling emotions and sweet response of "nopes and yups".
A modern day Cinderella ? I guess, but she's so young at heart and fragile as I notice. She can never be that serious for some relationship, due to the fact that she spends most of her time hanging by the chatroom with her chums.
Quite understandable at first, but in the latter,
consider her to turn back the tides by ignoring your post,simply not answering your Ym buzz calls
or her natural kind of not seemingly missing others.
If she's in her best moods, she just'buzz in that easy on the messenger and start a conversation until you gave up because of shortage of words. You can't seem to dole out or discourage in attempting to discuss love subjects that will shoo her away like a scalded cat.
Now, I am convince that it is better to have her around instead of losing someone even though your feeling is not platonic but mutual.
Satisfaction of having her that close... Even its a ploy of hiding my feelings of longing and want.
Guess thats the way it grows here deep inside of me . Like an old song;
*♫Once A Have A Secret Love...♫ that grows
within the heart of me♫♪...♫La la la la la la la♫

Raindrops... Surge of water...Childhood Sweetheart.

Yesterday it was raining hard, and every drop of rain reminds me of my boyhood days.
One of my nieces ask me to bathe on the pouring rain, and to think that I haven't had that for such a long time ,took off my T-shirt and run it off towards the down spout, with my Mucci on tag, Running back and forth towards the neighborhood premises, like a little looking and staring up on the sky, letting the rain flow and trickle down on my face.
Every surge of rainwater tingles my spine, a shivering rush of childhood innocence holds on,longing and silence besets me.
It was a memory of a young beautiful girl,My childhood sweetheart and my constant company every time the rainy season falls.
How I can forget that day?, I asked her mother for her permission to bathe in the rain with us playmates, a couple of distant relatives, best buddies and and some of the cutest girl from the block.
The usual tag along play,water dosing, and the finale, hide and seek under the mango tree.
Hide and seek works on my favor most of our playful times under the monsoon rains. Why?,
for the reason that ,I told her that she must be on my side no matter what. She would never say no that's for sure. I saw all her answers on the personal questions on my eldest sister's Autograph sign book. She likes me!
The seeker counts begin,on a slow count up to Ten,
holding her hands, we rushed towards the banana trees behind the chicken pens. Soaked and in cold, we squeezed together and reminded her that once the seeker passed by our hiding place, We would rush to the mango tree as quick as possible.
Chins shakes up, blackened lips, and those big round eyes, cant help myself liking her much. Almost all have been found except for us two, because we simply don't want to race it along for the mango tree. Just to have each one on the other side,I asked her and she nods for a yes ,she's willing to stay.
Comes the unforgettable part,without hesitation I asked her for a kiss,and she just closed her eyes and offered her lips to mine. I asked for a second hit and she obliged. Persuading her not to tell anyone , of course!
Oh boy!!! My first kiss...I almost jump with joy,held my arms around her shoulder and a little shaking hug...Until that familiar voice calling her name out ...with goosebumps all over ...my first words were;
"Your Mom ,hurry up!,go out from hiding!". Making sure that her mother won't see me; I crawled under the pen with chicken manure all over,till i reached out the otherside...Its stink but with a grin.
Heading on the drum filled with rainwater,I dosed out that adrenalin rush,then comes my best buddy MIke on my side with a wink,and simple signs of teasing gestures.
With a sigh of relief and a soft whisper"shh, that was close"...ends up the rhytym and joy of playing in the rain.

Pink...Black...and Blue...,three colors that sheds our experiences on love ,frustrations,and hope. Color that goes on with our existence, An added luster to our day to day routines.
A significant pastel...A mixture of all sorts...A background that enlightens...horizons of life...harmony of shades and pigment.
All seems pink when our hearts heighten emotions are taken care of, When someone's showering us with affections,pampered with sweet nothings and caressed with soft touches of love. Pink is also a sign of good health, virility and freshness.
A combination of Red for blood and White for purity,the shades of this combined colors initiate wanting's,heat within oneself,submission or surrender to a consented whim,upliftment of energetic feelings to beget and reciprocate to a crazy feeling called love.
An exclusive shade that blends well with fair skin ladies and a seductive pigmentation that entices and attracts the male counterparts.
Black...This comes when you're drifting on a shallow pool of of frustrations,when you're down and out,when no one seems to care,when all seem troubled and no one would offer a hand to lift you up.When all seem lost,cowardice on being left alone sets in,and not a shade or beacons of hope are there to be found.
A combination of many colors ,when all mixed up would turn black. Just like a mixtured of delusions and confusions,it darkens the light shades and it is like a long struggle to a tunnel of dim decisons.It also symbolizes death an end to mortality and a never ending sleep.
However now a days ...a color of elegance to some.
Hope sets in, When the color blue projects its beam. This color is a vast setting of trust and life anew.Like the serenity of the sky... the mystery of the ocean deep,Blue is a sad color to some but a symbol of hope to many.
Blue when mix with Yellow produces all sorts of Green. Green is for life,nature,abundance,
healthy environment,and vitality.
When mixed with Red,comes the color purple,and violets that signifies royalty,deep thinking,and a touch of class with its lilac variety.
These featured colors are just some of the ones we used to see everyday.
Your choice of color is a reflection of yourself.
Me...I like Brown as one of my favorite...
Why?,...It is because "I love Chocolates"!!!
Good day to all!!!

In so many ways,anyone can set his own mercy for his gestures and emotions. This may vary in style that other do end up being a copycat to some, or for some quite a few,mere shadows of his/her idealistic nature,inner feelings of likes and dislikes for others,a fallen prey for unsuspecting intentions,well a good reminder not to get hook on such,and to most a genuine offer of friendship.
Like a cup of coffee that often perks up our morning life, and a mug of two of ice cold beer that sobers up our nighttime escapades in the city joints,basically this vintage concoctions have its own ways of ups and downs. Just like the twist of fate and whirling merry go rounds of fabled intimacy and unwanted hates on our day to day encounters with new faces and moods.
Remembering the old days, waking up on a chilly morning,at that tender ages,it would be a stooping motions and some stretch exercise of my then lanky hands, while my siblings and I wait for that morning cup of tea and a piece of butter laced bread.
Now, It would be a cup of coffee...a pat on my dog...feeding the pigeons,and a date with those black keys on my keyboards awaiting my fingers, for my expressions of mix feelings,longing ,and crushes for friends hanging around...some on the other side...other here in their four corner kingdom offices...and to some can afford socialites, an interaction with their modern versions of hi-tech laptops.
Maybe tonight,an oozing bubble beer mug in hand,or it might be tomorrow with my favorite morning coffee in a cup...A lady with a sparkling champagne glass would greet me with her warm hellos and a picture of a kissing lips on my computer monitor boob tube windows...

Dr. Mahathir Mohhamad...on Democratic Policy
|
Posted:Sep 2, 2005 9:32 pm
Last Updated:Mar 5, 2006 9:28 pm 4168 Views

On his one on one interview with Loren Legarda(A former senator and a Protesting Vice-Pres. candidate)on her show "Real Stories", Dr.Mahathir,humbly share his experiences on how he manage to put Malaysia as one of the booming country within the East Asian regions.
At the middle part of the interview, former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohhamad,discussed his views on democratic policy ,principles and its implementation towards,constituent,supporters and non-supporters alike.
His viewpoint regarding, street demonstrations, and its negative effect on economic prosper drew my attention most.
A simple fact that this is our main concern now here in our country.Listening keenly on him and
Comparing the maximum tolerance policy being put into practice here in the Philippines.
Dr.Mahatir had mention that in Kuala Lampur ,Equality expressions like street protest can only be held once and for all for the reason that with continuous exercise ,the effect of the small hand rallying would paralyze day to day market and trade,and by suppressing it will allow more stability options for the majority.
Here in our country,its the opposite,especially now that our President is being accused of electoral fraud and the opposition party is pushing on to have an Impeachment proceedings.
This political turmoil had inflicted a big blow to the pursuance of unification ,and the concealed effort of some to grab the opportunity and hold power and be on executive office,disregarding the main concern that is, the people in poverty.
Rallies and street protest,endless debates on Congress,Pending motions for E-VAT tax measures.Surely the Doctor had his observations and figuratively quoted that there are some countries that cant have his fill on his government,antagonizing and putting a contest on every governing body at seat.
Dr.Mahathir,with his nationalistic character had a say on this when asked for a prescriptive point regarding the situations facing the Philippine government.He simply noted that He can't give a prescription for the issue,but share an encouraging point and emphasis on the plight of the people as the main concern.
A call for Unity and more of national issues and not of political power struggle.
In fact this was only my first time ,that I heard from him,I salute the former Prime Minister for what he had accomplished for his country and resting an envious feeling within me of how this leader benevolently understand his peers.
Sad to say that its the same democratic practice over and over again in here, a perpetual procedure of discontentment,but hold on still,
"I Love My Country for Its the Only One I've Got"....May God Bless Us All!
