I just fell in love with the song and would like to share it with you. The song is entitled "Geena's Song" by Alessandra de Rossi.

Love 

I don't know what i'm doing wrong

Please tell me what you mean

Don't go, 

I've given everything

Tell me everything's alright 

Don't tell me it's not right, 

And ask me to let go 

If loving you is all i know, 

Don't leave me in the cold 

Song Title: Geena's Song

Words: Alessandra Schiavone

Perfomed By: Alessandra Schiavone  

Additional lyrics by: Veronica Deposoy

Arranged by: Chris Ubando

Why is life so messy

Why is pain a part of us

There are days I feel like

Nothing ever goes right

Sometimes it just hurts so much

But You're here

You're real

I know I can trust You

A Helping Hand

Gerine and I volunteer to help repacking the goods to be given to the people affected by the Habagat that affected hundreds of people in differrent areas in Luzon. We were assisted by the Kabataan Partylist people- ANAKBAYAN, Ate Dora and Ate Iza. :) We went to Trinity University of Asia kanina to help. the TUA people are very nice :)

In action...

I really had good feeling knowing that in my own little ways  I was able to help my fellow Filipinos affected by Habagat. :D

CRANKY OLD MAN

I came across this poem in Facebook and I was really awed by how it was beautifully written. I 

want to share it with you. The poem was originally by  Phyllis McCormack; adapted by Dave 

Griffith.

Cranky Old Man

What do you see nurses? . . .. . .What do you see?

What are you thinking .. . when you're looking at me?

A cranky old man, . . . . . .not very wise,

Uncertain of habit .. . . . . . . .. with faraway eyes?

Who dribbles his food .. . ... . . and makes no reply.

When you say in a loud voice . .'I do wish you'd try!'

Who seems not to notice . . .the things that you do.

And forever is losing . . . . . .. . . A sock or shoe?

Who, resisting or not . . . ... lets you do as you will,

With bathing and feeding . . . .The long day to fill?

Is that what you're thinking?. .Is that what you see?

Then open your eyes, nurse .you're not looking at me.

I'll tell you who I am . . . . .. As I sit here so still,

As I do at your bidding, .. . . . as I eat at your will.

I'm a small child of Ten . .with a father and mother,

Brothers and sisters .. . . .. . who love one another

A young boy of Sixteen . . . .. with wings on his feet

Dreaming that soon now . . .. . . a lover he'll meet.

A groom soon at Twenty . . . ..my heart gives a leap.

Remembering, the vows .. .. .that I promised to keep.

At Twenty-Five, now . . . . .I have young of my own.

Who need me to guide . . . And a secure happy home.

A man of Thirty . .. . . . . My young now grown fast,

Bound to each other . . .. With ties that should last

.

At Forty, my young sons .. .have grown and are gone,

But my woman is beside me . . to see I don't mourn.

At Fifty, once more, .. ...Babies play 'round my knee,

Again, we know children . . . . My loved one and me.

Dark days are upon me . . . . My wife is now dead.

I look at the future ... . . . . I shudder with dread.

For my young are all rearing .. . . young of their own.

And I think of the years . . . And the love that I've known.

I'm now an old man . . . . . . .. and nature is cruel.

It's jest to make old age . . . . . . . look like a fool.

The body, it crumbles .. .. . grace and vigour, depart.

There is now a stone . . . where I once had a heart.

But inside this old carcass . A young man still dwells,

And now and again . . . . . my battered heart swells

I remember the joys . . . . .. . I remember the pain.

And I'm loving and living . . . . . . . life over again.

I think of the years, all too few . . .. gone too fast.

And accept the stark fact . . . that nothing can last.

So open your eyes, people .. . . . .. . . open and see.

Not a cranky old man .

Look closer . . . . see .. .. . .. .... . ME!!

OVERWHELMED!!!

        It has been really a very crazy week!!! There were many requirements to be submitted with so little time on hand. Yung walang tulugan and with many things to juggle like thesis and ojt... It was really @.@

          One of the requirements was a presentation for our HRM class; we have to make a job analyis then job description for a person who has a "technical job" , we need to group ourselves into 8 (so kami na magkakabarkada yung magkagroup which was great!). There were really many challenges that we encounter like our supposed interviewee (an IT Recruiter) did not fit the definition of our professor's of technical job. She wants a a person who is a 4 years grad and uses equipment for her daily work (not just a computer). So lahat kami nagpanic, tawag sa mga kakilala, muni muni to think for a back up like for 4 hours... then came Mara, she asked for help sa cousin nya who is a Medical Technologist, grabe debate namin dun if MedTech is a a technical job until sa lahat kami nag agree. Next pumunta kami kina Janice, dun usap na naman ano plano then kain like and finally interview na. Natatanong tanong kami, naguusisa ng work nya para nga kaming nag fast course sa Medtech eh... The good thing was Ms. Rea was very cooperative, understanding and very helpful. Naabala pa siya cause we asked her to take pictures of her workplace para mapakita namin ang nature of work nya and take note may duty pa siya kinaumagahan nun.We all went home mga 10.30 na ng gabi. Thank you Ms. Rea Hortizuela for accomodating us with even with very, very short notice.

with Ms. Rea Hortizuela
Back L-R: Gerine, Zynnc, Me, Raine
Front L-R: Mara, Janice, Ms. Rea, Beth, Jeca

         The next day, gawa namin kami ng papers namin, the outputs, nag Jollibee  para pwede din kumain. Si Gerine umuwi kasi sya ang mageedit ng video. Dito basa ng book, research about job description and job analysis at discussion kami. Hati hati kami sa work, may nag eencode, search sa net at gawa ng ppt (Beth and I), may gumagawa nung mga parts ng job description (Jeca, Zynnc, Raine, Janice and Mara). It was really teamwork and our strive to have a good grade that pushes us through. nakauwi na naman kami ng mga lagpas 10. Putol putol ang gawa kasi kanya kanya kami ng edit sa mga gawa rin namin kaya nagkakalituhan kami, hahhahaha.

sayang, wala si Janice and Gee sa pic...

        On the day itself, nag eedit parin kami ng paper namin at ppt, last 5 minutes before class dun palang kami nakalis ng dorm ni Zynnc galing sa pageedit at print. Tapos bilisang lakad pra di malate, pagdating sa entance ng Main,  maraming tao dahil may UAAP game, UST vs Ateneo, so umikot na naman kami. W arrived sa room ngmga 4:10, were late and out of breath 0.0. Then came the presentations, pang 4 kami, ang gaganda din ng mga presentations ng mga classmantes namin, kinabahan na kami. Nung kami, we can see in our Prof's eyes that she is happy. :) Then she said after our presentation "Congratulations! The content is there, its complete!" She was impressed and happy. Kami and ako personally was very happy, very overwhelmed! kami ang very first group na sinabihan nya ng Congratulations after 3 groups na nagpresent. All our efforts really paid off!! Sabi nga ni Gee, "Very fulfilling ang feeling!!!"

Ang haba na pala ng nasulat ko, sige till next time! I just want to share this event kasi talaga super saya ko... I personally dont know why.
