greening.

the whole week was tight — organized this symposium on greening the schools and communities in the Philippines.  was a fruitful gathering, especially the workshop part where we had the schools and communities, even dep ed, and representatives from some private organizations committing to make better their respective locales. 

also had the chance to meet cheeanne’s counterpart — linda from south africa and pyone from burma…  see, cheeanne’s my friend who’s now in uganda, or some province in africa for an immersion, something like an exchange program for the environment.  it’s part of a project of the environment broadcast circle, and she’s the country representative.  she’s supposed to be there for ten months, to observe and learn, and i guess, help the people out there as well… i just wish she’d have a better internet connection so she could continue writing for http://greenphils.com . sent her a private message tellng her i met her counterparts.

from greening to grinning — cant help but grin as am feeling giddy again.  my nerd crush was there at the workshop,  one of the speakers actually.  one of my friends told me he’s so corny but i find him funny naman…  well, infatuation blinds. hihi.

but man, i cant figure why these other girls (like 40 years and older) went gaga over him.  hmmnn,  i thought i was the only one who’s into nerds… lol.

hihihi. Ü

home sweet home.

it’s good to be back. was away for three days, spend the nights at tita vim’s cause mama had to attend this workshop at fontana.  i know im too old to be having sleep-overs at a friend’s house, but you know, anxiety thing. lol.

it was really fun having been at tita vim’s… walang ginagawa, ang saya! feeling bakasyonista.  we just spent hours and hours laughing, talking about random stuff, including of course, my stay positive mantra.  buti na lang super bait si tita vim at kinupkop ako, otherwise, kawawa naman ang cousin ko cause for sure, siya na naman ang bantay ko.  hehehe.

speaking of positivism, i was “cleaning” and i saw i had several readers digest copies with “positivism” topics in it (power of the mind)… and not only that, i had this book pala, “the power of positive thinking” by norman vincent peale (less than 100 pesos, mind you!) nakatago lang.  i started re-reading it — seriously, this time.

home sweet home, yey. Ü

spot the difference.

pinoys are hooked on friendster, and since im pinoy, well…  it follows that i have an account (argumentum ad populi at its corniest, hehehe!).

and here’s my horoscope.

i just cant figure out how detailed the “In Detail” version is cause THERE’S JUST NO FREAKIN (Regine) DIFFERENCE!!!!  hahahahaha!!!

dokyu.

so it was sir mon who sent me the invite…  wow, astig.  if only he remembers me for real. hihihi.  i realized it was him cause i got another invite to join the dokyu e-group.

i remember when we had this video production thing at UP, and he was one of our profs.  ang kulit. very low profile.  siguro he’d be a nice barkada…  or maybe even more (alons and i had a post-partum crush syndrome after the video prod session.. haha!).

that’s us having a shoot…  alona and i acted as mamimili and tindera (haha!) for a green “ad”. lol.

anyway, please watch dokyu: ang bagong mata ng pinoy documentaries in abc5.  astig tong show na ito, ang gagaling ng estudyanteng pinoy.  cool.

the path.

 

finally finished reading the book Red gave me, it’s “The Path of the Masters” by Julian Johnson.  a very enlightening read, if i may say, especially if you’re the type of person who constantly seeks the truth, or the divine…  or if you’re interested in topics like karma and reincarnation, yoga, or inner healing…  or religion… or soul. It’s a book for the open-minded. 

but, to read is not to experience — and, right now, i feel the need to go deeper. 

cinemanila.

i received an invite to join the cinemanila e-group… it’s so flattering to be invited ha — especially for a film nobody like me. dont know who sent it though, but im guessing it’s either sir mon (of dokyu), my video production prof at UPOU… or rica (ICU Bed), my gradschool classmate at PLM…  or maybe Sir Iglesias (Babae sa Bintana, etc), my prof in college, although I doubt if he’s a member — what with his busy sched —  a consultant probably.

Made me remember the time we had our film fest at school (college) and we got almost all of the awards.  Our film title: “Anino sa Buwan”.

Anyway, got this from the cinemanila site:

***  Ryan, sali ka na dali!

happy anniversary.

we’re celebrating our office anniversary today — and, as always,  some prizes were raffled off.  and funny cause I won P500 (minor) — to think i was itching to go home. 

but then again, quite honestly, i expected to win.  i guess its attraction.   next time, i’ll focus on getting a major prize — like, a goodlooking nice nerd over 5’7. hehe.

the green choice.

finished two posters this morning — one’s for the consumer month (see photo), and the other, i cant say yet — but it has something to do with a music fest on november *wink*… 

late afternoon, was already free — so i took this numerology test, and this is well, part of the result:

“You respond to life from the heart. You want joy and happiness for yourself and for those around you. Inspiration and imagination are yours in abundance. You are somewhat of a dreamer.

Children and pets occupy a special place within.

You enjoy beauty, popularity, and constant activity. What you have is all you ask for.

Life is a game. You enjoy life as it comes, laughing at discouragement or failure, and never letting depression get the upper hand. Even so, there is a reticent side to your nature. You might be living in a world of feeling and emotion. You fall in Love easily.

You can see beauty everywhere. And you express your own beauty through your varied artistic talents — painting, sculpting, speaking, decorating, acting, music, writing — anything with color, form, or rhythm.

Seems you have a lot of friends; often entertaining, broadcasting your energy and your Love, giving everyone a good time. You are probably not unfaithful, but you enjoy flirting. You are kind and obliging. Your friends mean a great deal to you. ”

“You appear friendly, persuasive, self-controlled, and positive, with a powerful personality that attracts respect from both leaders and subordinates. You are one who gets things done. ”

the rest talks about the future.. so id keep it to myself.

i think im an alien.

What’s between heaven and hell? I need to know cause that’s where im destined to be — yeah really, cause quiztron says so.  lol.

Im soo bored now…  probably surfed all the gossip journals out there..  ive had enough of paris’ mugshots and angelina’s birthday…  and so, the next best thing to do is for me to answer all the personality quizzes the world wild web has to offer.

I took this Are You Suited for Heaven or Hell? test, and it said i’m “a new being”..  what?!?  i thought, “what the hell is a new being?”…  so here’s the definition:

 

A New Being. You are nowhere near an angelic status, yet you are not quite evil. You know right from wrong, but alternate between purity and demonic in your daily life. Your fate is undeterminable.

Aww…  that’s just sad..  actually thought im an angel in disguise (innocent and sweet, ahaha).. haaay…  but on the bright side, atleast im gonna be half closer to my evil friends. im just like — a cloud away.

You could click here to know if you’re either a new being or pure evil (which you probably are) cause the time i took the fun test, nobody’s fit to go to heaven. 

what?!?

do you guys ever check your dashboard to see how people get to your blogs?  well, i do..  and this one made me laugh like crazy.

what?!?  people actually “search” that on google? ahahaha!  so funny!  and it was even in tagalog. pervert alert. hahaha! well, to you who got to my blog cause you thought i have a picture of a walang takip puke, well, i suggest you type that in english and i promise, it’s gonna get you to your kinda heaven.

ahahahahah!
