Another ordinary day
Today, i turn 40.
Yet it feels like another ordinary day. No plans. No celebration. It has been like this for more than a decade now.
I wish i can have one birthday where my year and life is celebrated. Im so tired of always taking the backseat.

After a few years as Army Officer with the Engineering Brigade , i spent a decade working in the BPO Industry. While I can say that during my 4 year stint in the Army was a life changer , the 11 years in the BPO industry was generally Wild , Exciting and mostly stressful . On my 11th year , i decided that i will have to cut short my BPO adventures and started working for a company that shows a promising prospect in the mining and construction industry .
In 2012 i was primarily station in Camarines Norte working as Admin Staff for Gold Mining Project , when there were issues about production discrepancies I was delegated to conduct an ad hoc performance and production evaluation . From an Admin Staff, I was Promoted to Process Engineer overnight . 11 months after I was hired I was the Process Implementation MAnager for the site and my Roller Coaster Career started from that point on.
One of the good things about my work is that i travel a lot most of the time . Over the span of 10 years i have visited most of Southern Luzon, the Entirety of Northern Mindanao , most of the Islands of Tawi Tawi, about 3/4 of ARMM and the southern part of Palawan. I also stayed at the contested Waters of West Philippine Sea since i was stationed at Pagasa Island for about 10 month
During the height of PAndeminc , despite the travel restrictions and ever changing Travel Guidelines , i was one of the few people in our company that was given special clearances to travel to active project sites . The only Quarantine that i experience was being confine to a One Star hotel at Tagbiliran Bohol for 1 one night , just so that i complied the provincial quarantine guidelines . While I am a firm believer about the dangers and how fatal Covid 19 presents I was really sure that i will not succumb to that disease .
Because of the limited deployment of competent technical personnel , most of the site and department managerial functions were temporarily assigned to me by default . this method while practical and efficient, has slowly develop a mental strain on my part . im developing work insomnia , i have to drink significant amount of alcohol in order for me to have an 8 hour sleep and despite of training capable subordinates , i cant shake the feeling that somewhere in the work process , things will go awry . i have to exert extra effort just to be focus.
from my own perspective , everything is not good enough , while i encourage my immediate subordinates to be creative and Innovative , i frown on their inefficient and untimely output . Maybe im just saturated with work or maybe i have not noticed that my added responsibility has changed my outlook without me noticing it . Im slowly becoming to a boss that i always avoided .
can work really change a person ? or im just not used to having this amount of authority that want to impress my superiors rather than earning the respect of my subordinates and peers .

At 45 I Dreamed of Death
At 45 I Dreamed of Death (2019 Marc 22)
At 45 the universe connected with me through my dreams, told me to hold you tight. In my dreams I saw the planet killer, devourer of life, ender of hope, the apocalypse in the form of a giant space rock. The radio said we had 2 minutes left but death pummelled through the clouds earlier than expected. I don't think it mattered. No length of time is enough to say goodbyes. We were at the top of Antipolo overlooking Ortigas. At first it was slow, beautiful almost to behold. Without warning the huge object accelerated and disintegrated buildings throwing pieces of the earth to the heavens, and then I finally realised that our love has come to an end. You were strong you faced the end, I turned my back and embraced you one last time. I said mahal na mahal kita, Love. But the pain never came. It was dark and cold, I saw stars.

The Next Government Will Inherit P10 Trillion Debt
The Filipinos know what's happening, thanks to social media. Filipinos just don't care enough about the Philippines anymore. Our country is continually raped again and again by the same people and these offenses are continued by their sons and daughters.
Why should I care for the Filipinos? Why should I care for the Philippines?

STATE U...Hate U....DND wag U.....
Nakakalungkot! Pagkalipas ng tatlompu't dalawang(32) taon ay winakasan na ang kasunduan ng UP at DND na pinapayagan ang UP campus na mag sagawa ng pag titipon laban man o para man sa gobyerno...Ang rason daw? naging at patuloy pa ring nagiging ''breeding ground'' ito ng mga makakaliwa at komunistang organisasyon! Eh sir paano naman yung diskarte ng mga pulis natin dyan sa mga darating na panahon? Kung baga dyan na nga lang yung masasabi mo na pwede mong sabihin yung kabulukan ng lipunan eh..babawiin nyo pa? beke nemen ser megbege pe esep nye?
Sabihin na natin na'' meron'' talagang nahihikayat yung mga makakaliwa at mga komunista dyan at talagang umaakyat ng bundok! pero paano naman po yung mga talaga namang may ipinaglalaban tulad ng rally para wag itaas yung tuition fee? yung para sa kalikasan? at iba pang -cause oriented groups na wala namang kinalaman sa komunista?
UP is the only place in the PH with a sufficient space or ground to massively organized towards a certain cause with out any permit and that the police keep thier distance( though spying is real), the media covers the anti-government protest but not the ''other'' protest by non-partisan cause oriented groups. The thing is that if communism is the enemy then take it by the horn and not by the tail.
Lusubin nyo sila sa bundok at ubusin1 pero hwag naman yung karapatan na nag tipon at sumigaw! BEKENEMENSER!

New Year, New me?
First of all, I would like to greet everyone a Happy New Year.
I think that New Year's Resolution are over rated. The thing with those is that it has an expiry date. If I want to change, I would do it not because it is New Year but because I want to change for the better.

The Question Boils Down to Economics
Sa LIBRO NI PLATO, “LAWS”, LAW IS USELESS IF NOT IMPLEMENTED
OUR LEGAL SYSTEM PROVIDES THE CREATION OF A BUREAU OF CORRECTION, REHABILITATION AND PENOLOGY. LINALAGAY NATIN SA PRISOHAN ANG MGA NAGKAKASALA SA LIPUNAN WITH THE VIEW OF CORRECTING, REHABILITATING THE PERSON BACK TO SOCIETY. THIS IS THE VIEW OF RELIGIOUS LEADERS IN A CIVILIZED MODERN WORLD. WE CONSIDER IMPRISONMENT AS OUR DEFENSE MECHANISM OF THE MODERN CIVILIZED WORLD. THE OLD AND BARBARIC AND UNCHRISTIAN REACTION OF PUNISHMENT OF A LIFE FOR A LIFE, A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH, ARE LOOKED DOWN BY THE MODERN CHRISTIAN WORLD. SO KAWAWA NAMAN SI MANI PAKYAW EVANGELIST SA MGA DDS HIHIHI.
THE QUESTION BOILS DOWN TO ECONMICS, YES ECONOMICS. MAY PERA BA TO REHABILITATE AND CORRECT THE MISTAKEN CONSCIOUSNESS OF PRISONERS NA WELL ANYWAY USO NGAYON ANG MATIRA ANG MATIBAY, KUNG MGA PLUNDERERS O NAGNAKAW NG BILYONES SA BAYAN PINAKAWALAN WHAT IS A FEW MILLIONS SA KABAN NG BAYAN NA PANGHAPIHAPI. KUNG SI BOY KULKOG AT 13, BOY SAKSAK AT 16, KUNG ANG TAONG NAGYABANG NA 1700 NA ANG KANYANG NAPATAY AT NAPAPATAY, AT GUSTONG PANG PUMATAY NG 3,000,000 kasi IDOL daw niya si HITLER...... GINAWA PANG PRESIDENTE NG MGA TABOGOK NA MGA PILIPINOS, WHAT IS LAW IN THE PHILIPPINES NOW??
SOCRATES SAID: THE TRUTH.... NOT LIP SERVICE, NOR NOBLE LIES WE CALL PROPAGANDAS AND PHOTO OPS , WILL SET MAN FREE. WHY DONT WE TRY THE DOCTRINES OF CHRISTIANITY INSTEAD OF THE SOUND AND FURY OF ATHEISTIC HUMANISM MGA INAMAW NI GONGGONG UG MGA BINOTBOT?- Read more...
