Birthday

Bago ako pumasok sa school at magpakalunod sa pagreresearch, happy birthday sa aking little sister (pero minsan tinawag niya akong "mommy jaymee") na si Tine Rowan! :) Yey.



Ice cream? :)

senior na nga

Ngayon pa lang ako matutulog dahil minurder ko ang aking resume para magkasya sa limitation ng Ateneo Placement Office. Boo. Para lang ma-get niyo paano ko minurder, ANI nalang ang nagkasyang org ko. BOO talaga. :(

Sige, medyo hectic the next days as hell week na next week. Leche! May hinahabol pa akong requirements for thesis. Gumagawa kasi ako ng magic, este magis eh. Secret nalang yun. Shhh. Basta kailangan ko na masubmit ang report ko sa VP's Office kundi.. HAY. ISTRESS ang school! Layp is stress. Buti nalang may... secret! Haha. (ang hyper ng entry kasi.. :b)


Good night!

CHURCH Procession to Malacañang in Support of the Sumilao Farmers

Simbahang Lingkod ng Bayan

invites everyone to join the

Church Procession to Malacañang in Support of the Sumilao Farmers

DECEMBER 14, 2007 (FRIDAY)

7:30 AM

DAR Office (Elliptical Road, Quezon City Circle)

Updates:

· On Dec 4, 2007 DAR Secretary Pangandaman went to Sumilao, Bukidnon and conducted an ocular inspection of the contested landholding. During the ocular inspection, San Miguel representatives presented the corporation’s plan to build a piggery in the area

· On Dec 5, 2007 , the DAR Secretary called a press conference where he announced that he would convene the DAR’s Center for Land Use Policy, Planning and Implementation and would await its recommendations

· On Dec 6, 2007 , the DAR Secretary made an announcement, before the Sumilao Farmers who had just reached the DAR Central Office, that the parties to the case were given three (3) days from receipt of the order, after which the DAR shall make a resolution of the case. In the meantime, the resolution of the prayer for a Cease and Desist Order against San Miguel’s construction of a piggery had been “deferred” by DAR

· Currently, the Sumilao Farmers are staying in front of the DAR Office in Quezon City

Statement of Support from Church Authorities:

“The cause the Sumilao farmers are championing is well known to me; and I know the farmers and their families as well…We ask that the contested 144 hectares of land be given to the landless tillers of Sumilao”

“…tilt the law in favor of the poor”

- Archbishop Gaudencio Cardinal Rosales, DD

“Ako ay nakikiisa sa mga kapatid nating magsasaka na galing SUMILAO. Idinadalangin ko na matamo nila ang kanilang ipinaglalaban…”

& nbsp; - Archbishop Angel N. Lagdameo, DD

“A solution to this problem will surely bring light and abundance not only to the SUMILAO FARMERS’ families but also to their children and their children’s children”

- Bishop Honesto Pacana, SJ, DD

A Call to Action

Please join the Church Procession with the Sumilao Farmers to show our solidarity with our farmer-brothers and sisters and to deliver the letter of Archbishop Gaudencio Cardinal Rosales to President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo

“Moved by those who suffer…

Moved by those who struggle…

Moved by the Spirit…”

Manalangin. Manindigan. Makialam.

naalala

I got to talk to you again after a long time, and I remembered the reasons why I liked you before. I don't know why the feelings died down for a year. Probably because we didn't see each other often anymore. I still often thought about you, of what you did, of what pushed you to do your advocacies. I admired you for who you are, your strength, your courage, and how you loved.

I never really got to know you, and it was quite a surprise for you to open up to me like that. I was humbled by the trust that you showed me.


I then realized that I still liked you, but accepted the fact that things would just remain the way they are. I felt a tinge of regret that I wasn't able to really know you. Let's start now, let's hurry up while we still can.



Please, take care of yourself. I care so much.

Helpless

I can only be here for you (and please know that I am and will be here always).


Di ko man lang alam kung paano kita matutulungan, pero sana tandaan mo nalang palagi ang nasa itaas, kasi sobrang totoo iyan. Mahal kita, kaya sana magtulungan tayo.

Maging Akin Muli

Maging Akin Muli
- Arnel Aquino, SJ

Manlaming man sa Akin
puso mong maramdamin,
Lisanin man ang tuwa puso mong namamanglaw,
Manginig man sa takot masindakin mong puso,
Mag-ulap man sa lungkot
diwa mong mapag-imbot.

Kapiling mo Akong laging naghihintay
sa tanging tawag mo.
Pag-ibig Kong ito isang pananabik sa puso Ko.
Sa'yong pagbabalik sa piling Kong puspos ng pagsuyo.
Manahimik at makinig ka't maging Akin muli.

Di mo rin akalain tinig mo'y hanap Ko rin,
Ang 'yong tuwa at sakit Aking galak at pait.
Kung lingid pa sa iyo Aking pakikiloob,
Tuklasin mong totoo tunay mong pagkatao.

frustrated

Hindi ko maintindihan kung paano natatagalan ng iba na hindi man lang kumilos o maantig sa mga nangyayari. Ano ang dalawang buwan na paglalakad at paghihirap ng halos 1,700 kilometro. Isama pa riyan ang masungit na panahon na minsan ay puro ulan, o minsan naman ay puro init. Ano nga ba ang sakripisyong ito para sa kanila?

Leche naman oh. Nakakafrustrate talaga.

Wala ba silang nararamdaman? Nagagawa ba nilang matulog sa gabi? Nakakakain pa ba sila, with the fact na ang kinakain nila ay pinagpaguran ng mga magsasakang di man lang nila pinakikinggan? May puso pa ba sila? Nalulungkot ako para sa kanila.


Hay. Pero patuloy pa rin eh.

I may be frustrated, but I will never lose hope.

life

Alam ko cliche, pero, life is really uncertain.

To all my friends, mahal ko kayo.

When the time comes that I would have to lose any of you, I wish I wouldn't ever have to think kung naging sulit ba ang pagsasama natin. Sana sure na ako sa bagay na iyon.

Please, mag-iingat kayo. Masyado na akong natakot sa nangyari sa kaibigan ko kagabi, sana hindi na maulit iyon.



Maiksi lang ang buhay. Let's make the most out of it.
