Owen to Complete New Castle Signing..



After playing 28 games and scoring 16 goals, english striker Michael Owen decides to call it quits in Spain. It's not a shock to everyone that the English International decided to move back to the English Premier League, because of the lack of playing time Real Madrid coach Vanderlei Luxemburgo is giving him despite the outstanding effort he is showing.

---

It's a sad day for me as a Madrid fan to loose one of their quality players. 28 games with 16 that's off the bench. What a waste of a good talent..

Is the NEW SIS system of the College of Saint Benilde just plain stupid?

Me and my collegues have encountered an Email of a concerned faculty member which i think was taken forgranted by the administrators of the College of Saint Benilde who implemented the new SIS system of encoding. In the Email the concerned faculty member mentioned the lack of concern for the student's encoding. Ok here's the situation, Since CSB is trimestral, we have to encode our subjects every term. Before, we used to do it manually. We had to wait in long lines for our turn to be served by the registrar. Just recently, CSB deviced a new system called "My Benilde" in which the students can encode using the computer inside and outside the school. When this was first implemented there were still bugs in the system in which the students were not able to get the subjects they wanted, but after awhile, it was fixed and everything went smootly. Just this term, CSB devised a new system which is called the SIS, and this is where goes down hill. See, this new system can only be accessed inside the school, you can access it outside the school providing you have a CSB account which is slower than a turtle and you can only view it from the Mozilla Firefox browser. From this point this is already hard to access, and to add on some more, the CSB server is always down. CSB students really had a hard time encoding, this term. CSB students really had a hard time encoding. For some people it was ok, but for majority, it was hell. The bugs of the system came out after one week of encoding and for the majority, the subjects they encoded were erased and for some there was a message saying "Encoding Invalid". Because of all this, the CSB tech support and registrar had to extend the encoding for at least a week or even more. I don't know if the extension is to make us feel that everything is under control and all that stuff, but i guess their wrong in thinking that we are stupid to not to know that there is something wrong. From our point view (me and my collegues), maybe this is one of the ways how CSB extorts from the students. Since majority of the CSB student communty had had a hard time encoding their subjects, they ended up paying a large penalty for this (the price for the penalty is Extorsion, believe me!). Anyway, from what i know, the new SIS system which supposedly costed at around 10 mil. is not yet fully functional, yet, they still opt to use it. And when we ask them what's wrong with the system, they just scratch their heads and tell us to come back in a couple of hours or worse, the next day. Now why do you think they do this?! is it to milk the students for more money or are they just plain stupid?! you decide..

Now, considering our tuition sky high, we should not experiencing this trauma of encoding. WE PAY THEM A SHITLOAD OF MONEY TO MAKE IT BETTER FOR US! INSTEAD THEY PUT IT IN THEIR POCKETS! NOW! I AM NOT TO ASSUME CORRUPTION IN MY OWN SCHOOL BUT I DO NOT SEE ANY CHANGE IN THE SYSTEM AND WORSE THE WHOLE SCHOOL! SO HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO THINK?!

WE JUST WANT TO BE HEARD!

To the Students of CSB and to the people who are concerned,

I know i'm gonna get alot of shit for this.. i don't even know why i'm doing this and to think i'm already graduating in a few months, but we need change and you know that. I am not a perfect student, actually i get into alot of shit. But if this is the only way to be heard and to make everything better for us and the people after us then i guess this is my way of making a mark in the College of Saint Benilde. We will be heard!

if anyone is interested to see the EMAIL we found just leave your email in the comment box..

PEACE...

After listening to Susan Roces rant about her late husband getting cheated on this past election, she made me sound like the best person to speak against President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. I mean, come on woman! It's 10 a.m. on a freakin' sunday morning! you think anyone is listening?! god! Anyways, last night was one of the worst nights in my life's recorded history.. I mean, the feeling of immobility because of a freakin' migrain.. Sheeet! i wasted my saturday lying down in my bed instead drinking beer and hanging with Brian and Victor somewhere.. sheesh... anyway, in two days, it will be my finals week where after that, will be my last academic term hopefully, i said hopefully because the benildean encoding system just sucks!.. it's can either make you or break you. I mean, i think 70 percent of the benildean population probably was not able to get the subjects and the schedule they wanted because of this shit so i guess, Course adjustment this term will be hell.. Shieet..

Cudos by the way to Chris Van Hoven! many thanks for the Printer and the Ink! A mark higher than a 3.0 to me is more than a bottle of Sanmig Light for you! hahaha! PEACE Out!

Mon Update
After almost two weeks of not blogging, i finally get a my chance to once again vent out online, so here's an update. So anyway, what new?! Actually, i can now say that i'm graduating in a few terms (FINALLY!!!).. Goodbye to school and hello to the real world in a few months. I don't know if i'm ready and i'm cool with all this yet but you know, i've been in college for the past five years of my life, so who am i to say that i ain't ready right?! I'm GODDAANG ready for this shit! Moreover, I just found out that i'm bound for Boracay this christmas.. geez! what a time to visit the island of sin! christmas for crying out loud! anyways, lets just look at the bright side of things, at least it Boracay right?! What else.. hmmmm.. oh yeah, i also just found out that me and mi familia are headed for Europe this summer.. that's Italy, Spain, France and i think Germany or London, who gives a shit, as long as it's in Europe.. Now, all i have to do is book for football tickets since there are still games in the Serie A and the Spanish La Liga seasons by the time we get there.. i just hope it's not too expensive.. Oh yeah.. Lastly.. Remember the chick i was ranting about 6 or 7 months back.. we'll now she's single.. surprisingly, i'm not in the "Happy Happy Joy Joy Mood". Maybe i got over her, i don't know.. or maybe, i Just got my priorities straight now... hehehe..

On football..
Real Madrid signs Robinho, Baptista, Diogo and Pablo Garcia in replacemement for Santiago Solari, Walter Samuel and Luis Figo who all went to Inter Milan.. Now that's what i call a shopping spree.. So far, the whites have been doing a great job on the pitch. I just hope they can continue being like that the whole of next season, so that they can snatch back the Title from BARCELONA!! HALA MADRID!!

On the Juventus side(yes, i'm a Juve fan now), Patrick Viera is now with the Bianconeri along with a shit load of other players. Alessio Tacchinardi is now with Villareal and Stephen Appiah in Fenerbrace. Just recently, they lost the "Berlusconi" with a 2-1 score against A.C. Milan. Patrick Viera scored on the 7th minute but Kaka and Serginho from Milan hit two right after that.. We'll the season has not started yet so we'll see..

Anyway.. it's 1:19.. i'm hitting the Sack.. i'l try and blog again soon.. PEACE!!

An Entry Long Overdue..

My DSL got screwed thus the huge skip from my last entry. Anyway, it's been a long time since my last real entry and it's almost the end of July, and this has been only my second blog enrty.. shheeesh.. Anyway.. Last last week was my Grandmother's 85th birthday and after 10 years, the whole family headed back to Surigao (that's the surfing capital of the Philippines and our home town) to celebrate it. Only after 10 years was me and my family completly congregated in one place. There was a little awkwardness of course when we first saw each other, since the last time we did see each other, we were still playing with Lego's and irritating our parents to borrow for us a VHS tape of Alladin and The Lion King while wearing a WWF t-shirt with an Ultimate Warrior print. Now, after ten years basically it's still the same. Only take out the Lego's, the Disney VHS tapes and the WWF t-shirt and add a couple of bottles of beer and a pack of cigarettes. We were just so glad to see each other again, too bad we only stayed a couple of days, kuz before we stay for two months at a time. Anyways, there wasn't much to do in Surigao, besides go to the beach since the beach is just 5 to 10 minutes away in all directions and eat Puso and Barbeque all day (Puso, pronounced as Pu-so is rice wrapped in Coconut leaves and shaped like a diamond, very very tasty). The night life was non-existent, yes there were bars with live bands and all that stuff but there were no clubs at all. My good friends Jack Daniels and Jim Beam wasn't also recognized there.. sheesh.. anyway, as long as there is San Mig light, it's all good!.. Anyways.. School's up.. hopefully not for long.. Blog again tomorrow..

Now a days, it seems like blogging a preveledge and not anymore a daily thang. Sucks really but hey, nothing fanatical has been happening these past few weeks anyway. So.. It's the first term, the sched is eleven to five every day with a not very tantalizing 3 hour break every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and a very very long and tormenting 4 hour break every Tuesdays and Thursdays. So far, i've been trying to cope up with this twisted schedule and as far as i know, it can be interesting sometimes. There are people there of course, really nice people. But most of the time, i'd be plugged up in my CD walkman like i always do, and basically just take a trip to "The Land of Neverending Beats" and just waste the long break away.. With schedules like these, it's just hard not to skip class.. sheesh! Moreover, after five years in college, it's the first time i joined a credited carpool with majority of the members being freshmen. Now, everytime i ride, or drive for them, i can't help but feel like a big brother (not good! not good at all!). Why join just now?! it's because the price of gasoline just won't stop climbing! Crazy Crazy Crazy! Dios Mio! I'm actually just waiting for our country to have an Economic Recession and hope that we get adopted the freakin' United States or Mexico or something so that there will be hope on everything being aight! For now that's all.. hmm.. i know i'm forgetting something, i'll just try and blog again tomorrow.. PEACE OUT!

Blogged..

And so summer's over, Yet, i still can't imagine that i only had just a weeks worth of break.. that's just too Dismal. Anyways, it's already the third week of school and now i just realize how miserable my schedule is. Imagine 11 am - 6pm everyday, for the next 3 months or so. That's not the best part, the best part is, every Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays i have a 3 hour break.. thankfully i have my good friend Chase to keep me from turning into a complete psychopath. Tuesdays and Thursdays though, i'll be spending my 4 hour break with my lonesome.. Shit.. To Be continued... Peace! Blog tomrrow..

All I ever wanted was your life...

Show love with no remorse and,
Climb on to your seahorse and,

Up and Away (To Last term..)

Everyday, everyday with youEvery little thing you do, the way you do, Little darlin' in your eyes, Got me all up and away, You get me high, I saw you there, since then everyday, It's like I'm lost and thinking of you in every way, Since I fell into your eyes,All I know is that you get me high, You get me high..
And then you walk the way you walk, You blow my mind to know the way, you walk in my way, Then I fall into your eyesUp, up and away, the way you rise, Oh, lovely,The way you make me high,
Cause when I'm thinking of you,When I'm flying above the world,How I wish I was drowning in you, I must admit that I'm oh so into you, you know?! Please don't ever let me go..You've done nothing to me but up, up and away you go, All up and away,You take me..Before you came you know I didn't care It's just the game I play All up and away Oh, all up and away You take me baby.l.

First was the Cube Libre sessions withg JP, Cocoy and Mark's friends, where by the way, i was just tripping Coy with the honey and the sugar in the Mix.. And then goes another session with the Herrera's and the other friends.. so.. here's what i came up with..

These are things I feel but dont want to say, incase you feel that way, these are things I know but dont want to say, incase you feel that way, I'll wait another day, I can never change, cause the pain just makes me want to stare, at the same things I saw before, thinking there's something more, God it's a lonely place.. I will never know, how you feel about the things I think about. Will I get a chance to make up to you? The things I kept from you, you know I wanted to. I can never change the pain just makes me want to stare, at the same things I saw before, thinking that something's wrong. God it's a lonely place. Say the same things you said before, wanting you even more God it's a lonely place!

And it's all in how you mix the two, And it starts just where the light exists. It's a feeling that you cannot miss, And it burns a hole, through everyone that feels it. Well, your never gonna find it, If your looking for it. Won't come your way, Well you'll never find it, if your looking for it. Should've done something, but I've done it enough. By the way, your hands were shaking, rather waste some time with you. And you never would have thought in the end, how amazing it feels just to live again, It's a feeling that you cannot miss, it burns a hole, through everyone that feels it. I walked around my good intentions and found that there were alot. I blamed my father for the wasted years, we hardly talked. I never thought I would forget this hate, then a phone call made me realise: I'm wrong and if i dont make it known that, I've loved you all along, just like sunny days that we all ignore because were all dumb and jaded. and I hope to God I figure out whats wrong. I walked around my room, not thinking - sinkin in this box. I blame myself for being too much like somebody else. I never thought i would just bend ths way, then a phone call made me realise I'm wrong. And I hope to God I figure out whats wrong..

Spanish Title lost to Sevilla!!




Score:
2 - 2

What i think is Madrid's mistake is when Vanderlei Luxemburgo took Owen out and replaced him with Figo.. nothing more.. Sheeesh!! Next year, the Title is coming back to Madrid!

Grace is Gone.. (DMB)

Neon shines through smoky eyes tonight
It’s 2 AM, I’m drunk again
It’s heavy on my mind...

I could never like again
So much as I like you
Where you end where I begin
Is like a river flowing through..

Take my heart, take my eyes
'Cause I'll need them no more
If never again they’ll fall upon
The one I so adore..

'Scuse me please, one more drink
Could you make it strong
'cause I don’t need to think
She broke my heart
My Grace is Gone
Another drink and I’ll move on..


One drink to remember, and another to forget
How could I ever dream to find a love like this again
One drink to remember, and another to forget...

'Scuse me please, one more drink
Could you make it strong
'Cause I don’t need to think
She broke my heart
My Grace is Gone
Another drink and I’ll go...
One more drink my grace is gone..
