Cherryl Wiser?
She was with us last time we were in Tagum to celebrate wifey's dad's death anniversary.
That night, we had some drink at C5 Tagum. As I mentioned in my previous blog.
We had several bottles of beer, Cherryl was telling her bloopers in call center where she is presently employed.
She is now a sales agent for at&t which is based only in Los Angeles, CA.
She calls customer to purchase or extend their contract with the company in exchange for new phone for free.
Then she got a call, and she was reading all the script which is very verbatim.
One customer she called was frustrated with her accent and the service too.
The customer asked for her name.
Customer: "What is your name?"
Che: "Cherryl sir."
Customer: "Your last name?"
Che: "Why sir?"
Customer: "Why sir? OH I see Wiser."
Che was confused on what the customer was telling about her name.
Customer: "Oh I see, Cherryl Wiser (irate) I would like to talk to your supervisor."
Cherryl: "Without hesitation dropped the call."
Another blooper of Cherryl Wiser. She actually asked what the customer meant.
While she was delivering her script the customer asked.
Customer: "I would like you to put me off from this phone"
Che: "sure" then she continued reading the script.
Customer: "I would like you to put me off from this phone" for the second time.
Che: "its okey sir I can actually give you a free phone"
Customer: " for the third time I would like you to put me off from this phone, this is bullshit, because you cannot understand simple fuckin english, give me your manager"
Che: "Okay bye" she was confident telling bye but the truth was she really did not understand what the customer meant.
LOL, that's why she asked me. As I understood it, it was simply ending the call, but it was absurd because the customer can end the call by himself.
Hilarious isn't it?
I was also in a Call Centre Industry several times. This type of call made my every shifts toxic yet funny.
Death Anniversary
Wifey went home to her hometown Tagum City where she was born and grew.
She asked Manang Linda our maid to accompany her to her place.
She wanted Nang Linda to help them clean the house.
Day before Oct. 19 they went home together.
I cannot accompany wifey because no one will be home and I will be attending a semester end party in the afternoon.
That was Oct. 19 the death anniversary, I drove all by myself to their house in Tagum, It was very unfortunate because I was not able to attend the prayer in the cemetery also the prayer at home.
I arrived so late, as they say "better late than never".
When I got there, it was very timely because dinner was laready served.
After the dinner we went somewhere to have some drinks with wifey's friend Cheryl Wiser.( I'll be disclosing in my next bloog why thy name).
We had some drinks at C5 Tagum.
The place was very similar to C5s in Davao City.
The difference was the people around. They were lesser in terms of sophistication.
The night was cool and we went home after we dropped Che at her sisters house.
We arrived in wifey's house at around 1 AM.
Ai was still awake wehen we got home.(wifey's elder sister)
I had some nightmare. Very violent nightmare which scared me a lot.
I woke up around 3 AM because of the volently scary nighmare. I woke up wfey because i wanna pee and i won't deny the fact that i'm scared in their house, i asked here to accompany me to the CR.
We woke up late.

Killing The Time
Karaoke singing which we share most of the time with our fellas, friends, relatives and families is one.
Going somewhere in the midst of nature like fresh water resorts, beaches, forests and the likes, which are very ideal celebrations of nature with friends and love ones.
I have done mostly of the typical things that we Pinoy enjoyed during leisure time.
I have just known how to play the so called "TONG-ITS".
Nang Linda taught me how.
Zone, Special, with same characters. One has to have thirteen cards and the other/s twelve.
Since las tweek I spent sleepless nights just to play this card game together with dad's buddies and wifey.
So, I have added this as an avenue to kill time.(superficially killing the time)
I have gone through the semester end party at the Forest Hills in bangkal, davao City.
I have noticed people in our neighbour cottage were playing "TONG-ITS"
I don't know why it is called as such, but one thing is clear.....
It is a way to spend leisure hours.
while playing "tong-its"

Semester is over
Yes, that's right semester is over and I'm happy.
I will be missing teachers and classmates.
I am hoping that all the five subjects will be passed.
I'll be earning 15 units if very fortunate.

Final Exam Day
After taking lunch I will be going to school to take 4 exams.
Hopefully things will go through in my favor.
Hopefully I will pass all my subjects this semester after committing many absences.
I am so thankful to my teachers for being so lenient with my attendance.
I will be missing some of my classmates, specially in one subject which they usually asked me to make a script for our group. "kahalayan Script" "China" and the "Drug Addiction Script"
Hoping
We have never used contraception.
Things just happened in no timing which we had regrets of what happened.
We were hoping since then to have a baby but until now we have not given, yet we are hoping.
She is delayed in her cycle now and we are hoping that it will push through....her pregnancy.
I have been praying that anytime soon the gift of life will be given to us.
I have a son with my ex which she fully accepted since we started. I am now on the verge of thinking how to earn money for my son (GP), for us (wifey and me)and for my future family (wifey and my kids).
New Old Maid
When I was still in college taking my first course in Ateneo, Linda was our maid.
That was when my younger brother John was also here studying.
That was when I got home always drunk.
That was when i had several women to bring home.
That was when she always asked me "another girl"
One after the other,
And that was then, after she left and her grandson took over for more than a year Weng.
Those were my foolish days before I met wifey.
Now, after Weng left the house she (Linda) again took over after the death of her husband 3 months ago of complication.
She is now 59 and still vibrat thou I have noticed she is still grieving for the lost.
Here is Nang Linda.
Antique
I was absent again for couple of days as the final exam week was approaching.
It was also the opening day of another mini grocery branch of mom.
Our ancestral house is a-storey building with a space which can be used as a store which mom occupied now.
I was roaming around the place when wifey told me that she liked to bring and restore an old box "baul" which I think was very old.
After two days of taking in charge of the new store, we decided to go home in Davao.
I brought the box here and have it cleaned. I used "papel de liha" (i dont know how it is called in English) to smoothen its surface and i painted it with natural varnish.
I did not know that wifey also brought the wood nude lady budha made in Bagiou. I can still remember when I was a kid that budha was already part of the house interior.
I cleaned it and painted it with natural varnish and here are the two antiques now.
Leche Flan
I chose to cook the easy leche flan while wifey baked her puto.
I was not sure if my procedure was right as long as I followed what I saw when Eunice was cooking about a week ago.
I separated egg yolks from egg whites.
I mixed egg yolks with sugar and evaporated milk.( some used condensed milk)
I melted 1 cup of sugar in a low heat.
I placed the mixture in a steamer and after 25 minutes its done this was how it looked.
Looking good thou imperfect.

ROSE RED series
Each video composed of 8-10 minutes a total of 250 minutes or more or less 4 hours.
Rose Red is written by Stephen King a popular author. The story was about Rose Red a dead cell.
I was thinking if what or who is Rose Red.
A house was constructed in 1900 and until now its is not considered finished.
There were a lot of story versions. Like it is taking souls of its victims and be part of the house. Ellen Limbowell for me is the Rose Red. She broke the heart of all the people she got because her heart was also broken. She vanished without any explanation and so with the other ladies. And the guys were mostly seen dead after a suicide or murdered.
There was a Psychic Professor who made a research about Rose Red, and she organized a group of Psychic to wake the dormant cell of Rose Red.
At the end her soul was also taken by Rose red and some of the team. Several characters survived.
WOWOWEE MOTTO
Willie was interviewing two male dancers and asked them about their motto in life.
One after the other Willie asked them.
"THE BEST ANSWER TO AN INSULT IS SILENCE" it was the firstime I heard of the motto.
"WINNER NEVER QUITS, QUITTER NEVER WINS" amazingly good.
Then he asked the guy from SGB "QUALITY IN EVERYTHING WE DO" customer service hahhahaha.
Then another one "GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME" very religious.
Arguing with my Teacher
Our group was the first to have a demo teaching earlier today.
My part was the daily routine in a typical classroom.
I started the demo with a prayer and checking of the attendance and had some chit chat regarding national issues.
Assuming that I had a class discussion regarding phonetics like the short and long "a" articulation or for some pronunciation, I had a short review and asked the whole class to pronounce as I pointed each word.
The calss responded positively and I ended it by saying "Teacher Michelle will be introducing new topic which is adjectives and the the various forms of adjectives.
After a while we finished the demo teaching and the ctriticing started the teacher ointed some lapses on our part. I accepted some of it not until the said "Why was it that the active review of Mr. Makisig did not appear in the objectives and blahblah"
I raised my hand to reason out about it but the teacher said "don't reason out"
My senses rised and my temper almost bursted saying " No no maam, I'd like to clarify that the review would necessarily be in the objectives.
She insisted" no the one written in the "objective" is another topic."
I argued firther "our objective is about adjectives and the review has its own objectives when it was discussed"
She lost in arguing beacuse my voice ws above hers. But she said "see your lesson plan"
I sat beside her and verify what she was talking about and shame on me, she was right but she was wrong when she said "objectives" instead of lesson plan.
"sorry" I said and she accepted it.
Thank God.
The next class with her another subject, she was nice and infact I told her that I will be absent on friday and I made a script for our group presentation, she okeyed.
" What are the possibilities of failing maam"
"Don't worry you are not failing"
hahahahahahahahaha
Hot Seat
The day came where I need to face them(her family) regarding my son.
I was in a hot seat indeed, I was anxious that day even I faced them with my parents.
I was so thankful that both parties were calm and we agreed to give 10, 000 PHP for two months as support, I felt embarrassed because its not me who's gonna give it but my parents.
They demanded I mean her father for a wedding which is very impossible but I agreed to have 2 months to discern about it.
I'm in the process of discenrning but I am very sure that my answer would be no, and I believe that my son's mom would also say no. Our concern is for our son not us.
I prayed so hard earlier when I attended a mass to enlighten me and them on this matter. I know what I want, who I love more, my wifey, and I know that she will be with me all throghout this adversity and challenge. I hope that all thats going to happen will be for the best for all of us, me and wifey, my son, the mother of my son and everyone involved.
Until now I am not okay I feel so fragile and stressed.

Drug Addiction Script
Assuming that there a lot of Students in one National High School.
Characters:
One police:
One Doctor:
One Addict before who will share his drug addiction story:
One has to act as an EMCEE:
MC: Students, to the employees, faculty and staff, ladies and gentlemen, Good Afternoon! We are indeed very lucky to have this annual symposia on illegal drugs.We thanks our local Government for this specially our SK Officials. We will have series of speakers who will be talking on the medical, legal and one will share his story on drugs. Without further a do our own Municipal health Officer will be giving us the medical Talk. Lets give him a round of applause.
Doctor: Thank you everyone, and its always nice to see all of your vibrant faces, full of hope and ambitions. My respect to our principal and teachers, maam,sir good morning. My btopic is about drug addiction, so ill be discussing with the very common at you age which is MARYJANE or the marijuana. Who among you here have seen a marijuana, or maryjane?common don't be shy!(no one raises hand except some teachers who confiscated marijuana and some adults)
This is marijuana assuming there is a projector: Cannabis, also known as marijuana is a drug.While many drugs clearly fall into the category of either stimulant, depressant, or hallucinogen, cannabis exhibits a mix of all properties, perhaps leaning the most towards hallucinogen or psychedelic properties, though with other effects quite pronounced as well. Though THC is typically considered the primary active component of the cannabis plant, various scientific studies have suggested that certain other cannabinoids like CBD may also play a significant role in its psychoactive effects.The smoking of cannabis is the most harmful method of consumption, as the inhalation of smoke from organic materials can cause various health problems.[34]
By comparison, studies on the vaporization of cannabis found that subjects were "only 40% as likely to report respiratory symptoms as users who do not vaporize, even when age, sex, cigarette use, and amount of cannabis consumed are controlled.
(note pwede nimo basahun pero kanang murag form of speech.)
MC. Thank you so much doctor: Our next speaker will be our very own chief of police Police inspector Tarpolano.
Police: Thank you everyone since we are running out of time: I will have the presentation shortly.
What is juvenile Justice?
The Juveniles are those children below 18 years old in the Philippines. 18 is the legal age. Now for the students mostly minor in this institution. So if you are caught you will be apprehended by the school and worst you will be charge of criminal act. But because you are minor , as the law provides psychological, emotional debriefing for you. But its not a permit that you can use marijuana. You will still have to undergo community service and worse you will stay in the DSWD for certain days months.
MC: Thank you sir, and now our last speaker will be Danny a drug addict then for his story.
Danny: Hi I am Danny 25 years old. I may look good now in your eyes because of the advocacy that I have joined and the many outreach program that I have attended, but when I was a high school student like you, full of hopes and vibrant energy to cope up with the adversities of life. My dream was to become a lawyer but it all changed the moment a friend introduced me Maryjane, I was wondering Who was Maryjane. Then he gave me a rolled paper like cigarette. I don't want to go every details because I tried to be called “cool” and that I feel belonged. I got addicted to it until all my grades fell like ax. I went home one day so weak and I got a fever, my parents never knew that I was into drugs until the doctor told them because I was hospitalized. Its not only Maryjane whom I met but almost all that made me so dependent with drugs. For 3 years I got addicted and I stopped schooling for two years because they entered me into a rehabilitation center . There I learned about all the negative effects and I picked up my broken pieces and continued studying until I graduated college, passed the board for social work. Now I'm working in DSWD working for children like me before.
Please don't do what I did because its really bad. I almost lost my dream to be a good citizen, to help and share. I was thinking why I got into it, maybe because this will be my mission to convince you not to be in drugs and convince those addict to reform themselves. I Thank my parents who were very supportive with my rehabilitation.

A refection on Special Children
We had assignment on SUCCESS STORIES OF CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS. I came across this journal and made my reflection.
They say God only gives special kids to special people, and I really didn't think I was that special to get two of them! But my boys compliment each other well! Matthew keeps Justin physically active and mentally stimulated, and Justin aides Matthew's social abilities and really brings out his personality. They greet each other after school with big hugs - they are brothers AND best friends!!
My oldest son, Justin, is 5 ½ years old and has Down syndrome. He is in a Life Skills class this year, but after Christmas break he started integrating into regular kindergarten class for social times (centers, library, music, recess, etc.). This has helped both his speech and socialization. We just had his end of year ARD and I am very proud of several points. 1) He is scoring, on average, approximately a 4-year-old level academically. 2) He will remain in Life Skills as core class, but has been moved up to FIRST GRADE for inclusion opportunities. 3) Testing done indicated Justin scored 109 in SOCIAL SKILLS (normal range is 90 to 100). He is my social butterfly and everyone instantly falls in love with him. It is nice when I pick him up from school and several other kids from different classes run up to tell Justin "BYE." Everywhere we go, I see kids tapping there mom saying, "Momma, Momma - that's Justin!" He makes me very proud!
Outside of school, we are involved in Special Olympics. He has recently taken pictures on a police motorcycle to be used for fund-raising and at a law enforcement recruitment for personnel to participate in the annual "Torch Run." The Torch Run is law enforcement’s effort to support Special Olympics both personally and financially.
Justin and Matthew have learned to swim without any "floatie" assistance! They are even diving in the shallow end of the pool picking up objects off the bottom, and swimming greater distances underwater. They go swimming at least 2 or 3 times a day!
We have recently learned that Matthew has a high-functioning form of autism. Although doctors tried to initially account for Matthew's speech delay by having an older sibling with delays, we now know that is not true (and I never believed it anyway!) I do believe, however, that Justin's vibrant personality has helped Matthew have the social skills he does maintain. If it were not for Justin, I believe Matthew would be even more "closed." Academically, Matthew is very advanced. He just turned 4 and can already write and spell at least 10 words, can count to 30, and memorizes everything. I am VERY proud of the accomplishments of BOTH my boys!! - R.M., Port Neches, TX
My refelection
I would like to say that I was amazed reading the story. Thou the parents of Justin and Mathew was not that happy of having two special children but they never doubted that their children are amazing, and can do even more compared to normal children. It has captured my heart on the dedication of the parents and the acceptance of the classmates. Living in the society of not so much good when it comes to treating these children, would make me realize that somehow the acceptance and the respect and specially the love of parents coupled with the dedication of the teachers, can make a difference in making these children into an industrious people. As they say It’s never too late.
Never too late to care, never too late help, never too late to accept, never too late to love and never too late to late to teach. There are still a lot of them, they just need to be seen. As you see them look into their eyes you will see human real normal boy/girl inside them that just can't get out in the typical ways.

Sheila the student set an appointment with the teacher in a his office.She entered the office and she close the door locked right after stepping into the room. It was late afternoon so lesser people in the campus.
Lady Student: She knocks the door and enter. There was Mr. Santos in his table. "Good Afternoon sir, may I come in" with flirting voice.
Mr. Santos: "Sure, come in and have seat"
Sheila: "Thank you sir" still flirtatious accent
Mr. Santos: "So what can I do for you Sheila?"
Sheila: "I am so worried about my status sir, you know I cant imagine to fail you subject, is there something that we could do to raise my grades to A+++" seducing the teacher.
Mr. Santos: "Sure, there is always a way Ms. Bagaman to raise your grade, you study harder, because you still have the final grading, its your chance.(taking a look at the class record) actually you need to get a final grade of 90 in the exam to pass my subject"
Sheila: "What I mean sir is is there something that we could do to raise my grade?"
Mr. Santos: "Okay I got your point, I'll be giving you a paper work which you will submit over the weekend, Make a research on the Success Stories of ADHD and make your reflection about it"
Sheila: "Will that project sir can raise my grade to A?"
Mr. Santos: " That's impossible Ms.Bagaman, the paper work will only help you pass my subject"
Sheila stands up and goes at the back of Mr. Santos and turned his chair fronting Ms. Bagaman, and almost kneel in the lap of Mr. Santos.
Mr. Santos: "Hey what are you doing Ms. Bagaman" (tulon laway)with a bit of hescitation.
Sheila: "I'm trying to raise my grade but I think I am raising something here"
End of the scene:

Heroism During the Typhoon Ondoy (Ketsana)
Very sad and devastating truth for the Filipino people.
The aftermath; many were left homeless, many passed away, many have grieved for their lost, many have lost source of living and many are hungered, some showed heroism and even lost their lives to mention one (Noel Mar Magallanes) who saved many but unfortunate to save his'. These are few of the aftermath. Because of all these, many needed help.
The good thing about this is the unity shown by countrymen to their fellas. Many volunteered for the relief operations,the government tries its best to cater all the needs. The Sagip Kapamilya of ABS-CBN and the Kapuso Foundation.
Many have donated for help like money, used clothing and food packs. Neighbours shared houses.
The spirit of heroism in times of calamity like this is visible which means that Filipinos are kind and generous people.
We can say to the world how proud we are as Filipinos amidst the disaster.
Typhoon free Mindanao
Its very devastating seeing the death polls to have risen from single body recovery to multiple, its more than a hundred now. sad But true.
It is even painful to hear their stories, on how they survive and they are looking still for their love ones(family members).
Here in Mindanao, we have seldom experience a typhoon if not the so called ITCZ or the Inter Tropical Convergence Zone.
Because of the geographical location surrounded with mountainous landscape then it is less of a possibility to hit Mindanao, thou there some areas where typhoon rails.
Yes, we have no typhoon but what we have is WAR.
Peace in Mindanao.
Suppression
Yes, there is a difference, i crave for more food thou i mange not to eat, if wifey would not just tell me to cook because she feels dizzy then I wont.
Sometimes breaking the rules would not mean failure. Its just controlling eating habit. We always compensate the dines which we have not eaten so its the same thou lesser food.
Discipline is all what it takes......
Hopefully after a couple of months we can get back to the cloud nine dilemma of getting into shape.
Manunulat (writer)
The creativity that she has is so precious. Even with years, it cannot be vanished, it is legendary.
Now, What I have in mind is to write something similar (vampire) using the Philippines context and history. Its a challenge, I would always be a failure if I wont try or start it.
This blog entry is my very start. I'm thinking what year will I start, who will be my character? and who will make the first Filipino Vampire.
Will it be Lestat? Louies? Arman? Akasha? Or Some settlers has left their blood as if it runs through the blood.
Hopefully I can come up with an obra.
Hindi sumipot
Lunes ng matanggap ko letter sgned by the BRGY. Captain ng barangay namin dito sa city.
Nagkataon din na nandito sa bahay si dad noong araw na yun kaya alam niya. Complaint ito mula sa aking ex-gf na naanakan ko.
Mahabang istorya na kung isususlat kopa. Basta ngayun dumating na kami sa puntong ganito.
Naka skedyul ito noong Miyerkules, September 30, 2008 at 9:00 AM. Maaga kaming gumising ni wifey kasi sasama din siya sa barabggay hall. Dumating din sina mom at dad para suportahan ako sa aking sitwasyun.
5 Minutes before 9:00 Am ay dumating na kami sa area subalit hindi pa dumadating ang complainant.
May lumabas mula sa hall at kinausap kami. Isang Kagawad ng baranggay. Alam na alam niya ang gagawin, babae si kagawad at madadal ito, practical siya sa life. Nakapag abroad na siya as entertainer sa Japan hanggang sa maisipan niyang tumakbo at nanalo naman siya.
After isang oras, hindi parin dumadating ang kabilang panig kaya pinauwi na kami. Hindi nangyari ang dialogue. pagdating namin sa bahay ay naghanda narin kaagad sina dad para makauwi sa bukid.
"itext mulang ako kung anu man ha" sabi ni dad at lumarga na ang sasakyan nila.
Huwebes Oct. 1 mga bandang alas nuwebe may dumating na messenger at hinatid ang another letter, reschedule for dialogue on Oct. 5 Monday. Dumating pala sila noong unang schedule subalit late na sila. Mga alas onse na sila dumating.
Sana maging okey ang dialogue ngayung Oct. 5. Wish me luck guys.
"Gusto kong maging vampire" wifey and me
Mula kay Lestat, louie, pandora, arman, marios, akasha at marami pang iba...
Mula sa Interview with the vampire, dust till dawn, queen of the damned and many others.
Masyadong okey ang pagkakdala ni brad pitt sa louie na karakter at si Tom Cruise sa pagka Lestat, subalit si Townsend as lestat ay okey rin naman hangggang sa pagakatapos ng interviw with the vampire bigla kong sinabi na:
"Gusto kong maging one of them" polo
"ako din para di ako tumanda" wifey
Yung pagiging immortal at hindi pagtanda ang pinakagusto namin.
"Come out come out wherever you are"lestat
Jean "hi kuya"
Dalawang babae at isang lalake. Di ako sigurado kung magsyota ba ang dalawa sa kanila.
Napansin ko habang hinihithit ko ang aking yosi na tinitingnan ako ng isang magandang estudyante. nag smile siya sa akin at ginantihan ko naman ito.
May tanong sa isip ko if anu ang ibig sabihin ng smile nyang yun. Ilang saglit pa naisip ko baka kaklase ko siya sa isang subject subalit hindi rin.
Mga 30 minutes na ako na nakatambay sa tindahang iyun may napansin akong dumaan na dalawang magagandang chix na dumaan sa harapan ko. Parehong sexy at maganda. Tiningnan ako ng isa at nagsmile ito sa akin. Lumingon ako baka may tao sa likuran ko eh wala naman.
Parang hilaw ang aking smile na naganti. HIndi ko sila kilala. Pero sa loob ko muntik na umandar ang aking pagka pabling. Feeling ko ang guapo ko that day.
Nung maka alis na ang dalawang bababe sa aking harapan tinitigan ko ulit ang unang chik na nagsmile sa akin, gumanti siya. With all her charm, tukso layuan mo ako.
Pagkalingun ko nakita ko ang pangalawang chik na nagsmile na malapit sa likuran ko, papalayu na ito sa akin. I know she wanted to approach me pero nakatalikod ako kaya umalis narin siya. Napansin ng unang chik ang mga tagpung iyun.
Kinabukasan the same time habang naglalakad pa ako papunta sa aking tambayan sa tapat ng simbahan nakasalubong ko ang pangalawang chick. matangkad, maputi at maganda ito. Hinawakan niya ang aking braso. sabay sabing "Hi Kuya" Napaisip ako at nawala ang mga tanung sa aking isipan. Kilala niya ako. "sino kanga?" Ako si jean yung anak ni _____ na linudhan sa kasal sa imung mommy"? Doon kopalang naalala na siya nga yung bata noon, patay na ang mama ni Jean dahil sa kidney trouble.
Nangumusta siya kay mommy daddy at utol. Naalala ko rin na niligawan yata ni utol noon, or crush niya....
Hanggang ngayun tuwing nagkakasalubong kami "hi Kuya"

Child support!
1. My son is not using his father’s last name, can I ask for child support?
Answer: Yes, your son should be receiving child support from his father, as long as you can prove that he really is the father of your son.
1. I asked him to leave my parent’s house, can I still ask for child support?
Answer: It doesn’t matter who left who and who asked who to leave, this is not between you and your ex, but rather about your child.
1. What if he doesn’t have a job?
Answer: It is the father’s legal responsibility to support his child, so whether or not he has a job, he should give you some financial assistance. Of course, it will be hard for him, but he has to find a source of income because the responsibility doesn’t fall only on your shoulders.
1. How much am I entitled to?
Answer: You are entitled to nothing because you are not married to the father of your child. However, if the two of you lived under the “common law marriage”, that is different. According to a lawyer I consulted, the assets should be divided in half much like in legal marriages. But once again, I stress that I am not a lawyer and I am only relaying information that was given to me during a consultation.
1. How much is my child entitled to?
Answer: Again, according to the lawyer, it depends on 3 factors. 1) How much the father earns, 2) the lifestyle the child has been accustomed to and 3) estimated monthly expenses of the child; this includes board, lodging, food, education, health care, child care (nannies, day care), extra curricular activities etc.
1. Do I have to sue my ex for child support?
Answer: It is best for the two parties to come to an agreement. But as in any agreement, there should be a contract. A legal document stating what the two parties have agreed on. A letter of support will suffice in some cases.
1. He said he doesn’t have to give because there is no law for that.
Answer: There is such a thing as Republic Act 9262. Under Section 5, the Acts of Violence Against Women and Their Children are clearly defined. Under letter E, number 2 it says “Depriving or threatening to deprive the woman or her children of financial support legally due her or her family, or deliberately providing the woman’s children insufficient financial support”.
1. Will he go to jail if I sue him?
Answer: Again the lawyer I consulted said that if the two parties do not come to an agreement; and the judge rules on the case, there is a big possibility that the father will go to jail. It’s also stated under Republic Act 9262 Section 6, acts falling under Section 5(e) are punishable by Prision Correctional (you can check here for the table of penalties under the Department of Justice).
I took the liberty of translating parts of our conversation in English, as we were conversing in our local tongue (Tagalog). If you have other questions, please feel free to email me and I will try to answer them. If I can’t, I will ask my lawyer so that I can help other single moms like me. Again, I must reiterate that it is always best for you to consult a lawyer.

Sana! (Manny Villar for President)
Sana po ay gumawa po kayo ng hakbang para mabigyan ng kaukulang counterpart ang pagputok ng kandidatura ng kabila. Walang ibang pwedeng threat kay Villar kundi si NOY. Di naman natin mablame si Kris for such kapatid niya kasi and sana si BOY hindi ganun kung ititigil niya man ang support kay Manny sana nag neutral nalang siya......
Sana po ay pumasyal si Villar sa mga Munisipyo sa buong Pilipinas. Its not too late. Try to schedule ang lahat ng munisipyo. Kung ilang munisipyo hindi ko alam, kahit mga tatlong munisipyo sa isang araw or dalawang munisipyo sa isang araw. Malaking bagay na sa mga tao na kagaya ko na bihira lang makakita ng mga VIPs like Manny. Malaking factor po ang makita kayo ng mga "Lungsuranun".
Sana po ay may gagawing mga entertainment sa mga probinsiya at hindi nalang sa big cities. Kahit po na di ganoon kadami ang tao, ang mahalaga ay madaanan ang lahat ng lugar sa Pilipinas.
Sana po bigyang pansin niyo po na lage na lamang po inu-ulang ang mga big events ni Villar like Wowowee in Davao na naulanan kami. Ngayun naman po ang rockatropa binagyo. Isaalang alang niyo po ang venue. sabi konga po kahit na di ganoon kalaki ang crown sa bawat areas if susumahin niyo po ang kabuuan nito i know mas madami pa sa one big event. sa finale napo ang parang culmination event sa lahat.
Sana po mabigyan niyo po ng mga livelihood ang mga rural areas. Agriculture, handicrafts etc.
Sana po gumawa kayo ng hakbang na maging number ulit.
Sana po mameet ko po kayu if pupunta kayo ng Davao.
Sana po bigyan pansin niyo ang lahat ng institusyon sa kanilang ga pangangailangan.
Sana po ang isang boto ko ay maka contribute sa inyong pagkapanalo at pagbabago sa Pilipinas.
Sana po manalo kayo.
Maaasahan niyo po ang boto ng aming pamilya.
salamat,

HCDC Bomb Threat?
Mag aalas kuatro na ng hapon habang akoay nasa loob ng aming classroom at malapit ng mag goodbye ang teacher namin ay biglang tumunog ang alarm ng school at nagsalita ang President ng School.
Malumanay parin ang boses nito at biglang tumahimik ang mga maiingay na classrooms at nakinig ang lahat
"Attention to all the teachers, employees and students to get out of the campus" Walang madaling sabi at naglabasan ang lahat. nagulat din ako at lumabas na kaming lahat sa aming classroom.
Pagkalabas ko ay marami ng mga estudyante at mga guro ang kinabahan, ang ba naman ay nagawa paring tumawa. May mga iba rin na nagpanic. Sumigaw ang mga ibang guro na wag magpanic kasi nga baka magka stampede.Napakarami din kasi ng population ng school.
Lumabas na ako at ayun nakita ko na bukas na nga ang mga gates ng school, may tumatakbo ang iba naman ay kalmado parin.
Habang ako ay naglalakad papalabas na ng campusmay mga bulong bulongan sa paligid na baka may bomb threats, may mga nagsabi din na baka drill lang ito.
May mga tanung sa mukha ng bawat isa.
Nilisan ko ang school at pumunta sa may simbahan ng Sta. Ana Church na katabi lang ng school.Doon kasi ako nagpark. Nakita ko parin ang napakaraming estudyante na lumalabas.
Nanatili ako saglit sa isang tindahan at umalis na ako. Minabuti ko paring dumaan sa harap ng main gate ng school. Matagal akong nakaalis sa harap ng main gate kasi madami paring estudyante, may naita na akong camera man ng GMA 7 sa main gate na kumukuha na ng videos, at nakita ko rin ang kanilang pick up na sasakyan. May isang patrol car na puno ng mga pulis na dumaan at doon sila pumunta sa exit. Naisip ko tuloy baka nga hindi drill. May nakita rin akong karatula sa harapan ng main gate sa isang blackboard na "Classes Suspended"
At nagpatuloy ako sa pagmamaneho.
sa bahay inabangan ko sa dalawang estasyun ang pangyayari baka kasi iuuulat na nila ang balita subalit wala sa ABS- CBN at wala rin sa GMA 7.
Sana nga hindi totoo ang spekulasyun ng mga estudyante at guro.
God Bless HCDC! at maliliwanagan din kung anu ba talaga ang dahilan ng pagkasuspinde ng Klase.

Philippines: September 7 and 21, 2009 are decalared Non-Working Holidays
September 7 and 21, 2009 – President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo declared as special non-working holidays throughout the Philippines to pay attention to mourning of the late Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC) leader Bro. Eraño “Ka Erdie” Manalo and to commemorate Eid Al Firt or the End of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting, respectively.
In a press statement from Malacañang Palace, September 7, 2009 will be of observed as “national day of mourning” to honor the Iglesia ni Cristo’s executive minister Eraño Manalo, who passed away last Monday due to cardiopulmonary arrest. President Arroyo said that all government flags will be flown at half-mast for spiritual leader’s burial on Monday.
INC spokesman Bienvenido Santiago on Friday announced that “the interment of the late Brother Eraño G. Manalo, Executive Minister of the Church of Christ, will be held on September 7, 2009, Monday, 12:00 noon at the Tabernacle located near the Central Temple.” He also said that the interment will be held while awaiting the construction of the mausoleum to which the remains will be transferred. The said mausoleum is within the grounds of the Iglesia Ni Cristo Central Complex and will be built nearby the monument of the Ka Erdie’s father and Felix Manalo.
Meanwhile, the Philippine Air Lines (PAL) also announced last Friday that they will be offering special discounted tickets for those INC members abroad who want to pay their respect to Manalo. PAL Chairman Lucio Tan also paid his last respects to Manalo.
Meanwhile, September 21, 2009 is also declared as a non-working National Holiday in observance of Eid el Fitr or the End of Ramadan. It is a big and joyous celebration among our Muslim Communities which mark that the month of Ramadan is over.
Both September 7 and 21, 2009 non working holiday are Mondays. Philippine once again will experience 2 long weekend holidays." qouted whole article from:

Being saved for my two reports tomorrow is a great thing for me. But that does not mean I'm happy what caused it.
Personally I'd like to sympathize and extend my condolences to our brothers and sisters in INC. We will just pray for the repose of Ka-Ernie's soul. Haligi siya ng pananampalataya ng maraming Pinoy.

PUTOL
Ito ang aking short story nakinuwento lang din sa akin ng mga relatives namin lalo na kapag kami ay nag-goghost story.
Ang mga karakter:
Ana(Putol): isang babaeng pinaglihi sa manika na napuputol ang mga parte ng katawan.
Sherlyn: Ate ni Putol
Aling Inday: Nanay ni Putol
Mang Domeng: Tatay ni Putol
Analyn: Pinsang ni Putol
Leonardo: Lalaking umiibig kay Putol
Lina at Andrea: Dalawang kapitbahay
Malapit nang matapos ang sem break sa kolehiyo at umuwi sa kanilang probinsya ang Si Analyn, Sherlyn, Lina at Andrea.
Taga Manila ang pinsang si Analyn na sumama kay Sherlyn para magbakasyun.
Isang gabi habang nagkukuwentuhan sina Analyn, Sherlyn, Lina at Andrea ay nagbukas ng isang topic si Analyn horror stories at naaisipan nitong mag "spirit of the glass sila"
Doon sila sa room ni Ana. Si Ana sa loob ng 18 years ng kanyang buhay ay naroon lang sa kanilang bahay. Wala itong mga kamay at mga paa. Kung di siya nakadungaw sa bintana nasa kama lang ito. Tinutulungan siya ng kanyang nanay sa paglilinis sa kaniyang katawan.
Minsan ay marami itong tanung sa kanyang nanay kung bakit siya naging putol, hindi naman sinasabi ng kanyang nanay ang dahilan, subalit narinig niya na sa mga kapitbahay na pinaglihi nga daw siya sa isang manika. Napakaganda ni Ana, napaka amo ng mukha nito na parang isang birhen. Sayang nga lang at gaun ang kanyang kalagayan.
Sa loob ng kaniyang kuwarto nandoon na ang apat na dalaga siya ang panglima. Dahil na wala siyang mga kamay ay nanoud lang ito sa ginagawang "spirit of the glass". Niyaya siya ng kapatid na lumapit nalang sa kanila. Inalalayan siya nito palapit sa kanila.
Ready na ang kanilang "Spirit of the Glass Board" at isang baso. Nagsindi din sila ng kandila sa gilid. Dala ni Analyn ang board na ginamit nila. Mahilig palaitong maglaro ng "spirit of the glass" na gingawa na nilang ktuwaan sa Manila, subalit ito ang unang pagkakataon na nilaro niya ang board na yun. Bago pa ito na nabili niya sa may Quiapo. Muntik niya na ngang malimutan na nadala niya palaito.
At sinimulan na nila ang laro,isang mahabang dasal para sa mga spiritu ang kanyang binasa na nakalakip sa board nung binili niya ito. Matapos ang pagbabasa, "spirit are you in"tatlong beses habang ang kanilang mga kamay ay nakapaton sa baso sa ginta ng board. Walang nangyari kaya inulit nilang tawagin ang mga espiritu,
"Spirit are you in" sa panglimang pagkakataon ay biglang umihip ang malamig na hangin na hindi nila napansin, tanging si Ana lamang ang nakapansin, napansin nalang nila nung namatay ang kandila. Kaya isinara nila ang bintana ng kuwarto ni Ana.
Nagpatuloy sila at sa ikasiyam na try na "spirit are you in" ay gumalaw nanga ang baso at nagpunta ito sa "Yes" kinabahang bigla ang dalawang kapitbahay na sina Lina at Andrea. Subalit pinagpatuloy parin hanggang sa tinanong nila " Lalaki kaba?" "Yes.
"Tagasaan ka" tanong nila
"San Mateo" spell out nang baso kalapit na baranggay
"Ilang taon kana"
"21"
"Paano ka namatay"
"sakasak at ninakawan"
"Bago lang ba"
"Yes"
"Ilang buwan"
"3"
"Anu ang pangalan mo?"
"Leonardo"
Bumuka ang kanilang pinto sa kuwarto at pumasok si Aling Inday "Anu bayang ginagawa ninyo dyan?" Itigil niyo na yan at kakain na tayo ng hapunan. Inalalayan ni Aling Inday si Ana at sinubuan ito.
Hindi na nila napagpapatuloy ang laro. Natapos na rin silang maghapunan at umuwi na ang mga kapitbahay. Sa kwarto ni Sherlyn natulog si Analyn. Isang Linggo nalang uuwi na ang mga ito para sa enrollment.
Nung gabing yun ay naiwan ang sa kwarto ni Ana ang board at Baso. Hindi nakaltulo si Ana at iniisip kung totoo ba o hindi ang paggalaw ng baso. Minabuti niyang ipagpatuloy ang laro na siya lang. Lamparilya lang gamit niya sa kuwarto na nagbibigay ng katamtamang liwanag sa boung kwarto.
Tinanong niya ito,
"Andyan ka pa ba?" dahil nga sa wala siyang kamay inakala niya na hindi gagalaw ang baso, subalit gumalaw ito.
at nagpunta sa "yes"
Kinilabutan ang dalaga.
ipagpapatuloy ko later k./..............

Joke ng lasing
Lasing na ang mga ito na galing sa pista at inuman.
Pinuntahan nila ang kapitbahay naming si Boboy.
Galing sila sa bahay ni Bitoy.
At nagkuwentuhan ng napakaingay, tawananan, tuksuhan, ang kukulit ng mga lasing hanggang sa nag joke na si Moloy.
Eto ang joke:
Tumador: Doc anu kaya ang sakit ko doc kasi pag ako ang bumibili ng inumin sa inuman kinabukasan eh nagkaka LBM ato, nagtatae ako doc.
Doctor: Ahhhhhhhhhhh ganun bah simple lang ang sakit mo. Manipis lang talaga ang bituka mo.
Tumador: ganun ba doc tapos ?
Doctor: Pero makapal ang mukha mo.
Ang lakas ng tawa ko, ewan ko lang kung may pinatamaan siya sa joke niyang yun basta napakaingay namin.
Araw Ng Batobato/ Pista ng San Agustin
August 28 ang pista ng lumang simbahan at sinundan agad ito Ng unang Araw ng Barangay Batobato.
Napakaraming tao sa concert ito ang mga events:
Augist 28 pista 7 PM ang Disco Concert
August 29 Hiyas ng Batobato

Napakasaya at ang daming tao na taga kung saang lupalop ng aming bukid.
May mga nakuha akong larawan at videos.
I'll upload it asap na makabalik na kami sa city, medyo mabagal pa ang net dito kasi.
August 28 kami uinom then past noong 29 then kagabai August 30 ang dami-daing naming nainum ni Janung, Ate Nice, toper, wowwie, Jun Foe, Maxell, Son Goku etc. Si wifey wala sa mood na uminom, si MIMI ang buntis na misis ni Janung medyo wala rin sa mood.
Gayun paman sabay naman kaming lahat sa saya.
Natatawa ako sa mga kakaibang sayaw ng mga kabataan iba ito kesa sayaw ng mga nasa gimikan sa Davao, pero may iba din na kapareho narin.
Maraming mga batang bata pa. May mga bading din na naglipana na ang iba ay kakilala din namin.
Nice ang mga ito sa amin.
Nakuwento korin dati Si Daboy at Palang at nakita ko si Palang na nakiJam sa banda mahusay palang kumanta si Palang kaya pinakunan ko agad siya ng larawan while kumakanta sa stage.
Tinanong ko si utol kung sila pa ba ni daboy ang sabi ni utol ON-Off daw ang relasyon ng dalawa.
"Thumbs Up palang magaling ka pagbutihan mo ang ginagawa mo"
I'll upload nalang the pics later wala pa kasi sa laptop ko.

Attention guys: mao rani akong nahuna hunaan. Wala ko ugma sa klase iapil nalang ko sa attendance.
Ye shengtao transformed the old and traditional method of teaching, He brought a new idea to the Chinese educators, i.e. students should be taught the methods of learning, instead of the long and detailed content in books.
___________________________________________________________________________
Scene 1. May mag act as a teacher among the members with at least 2 students. 3 members involve. Ang scne na ito ay ang old way sa china.
Teacher: alright class I want you to memorize the rules of confusious and read the articles about the Ming Dynasty. We will have a quiz on Monday, then we will discuss after. And see you on Monday.Bye.
Alis na si teacher.
Student 1: Grabe naman yung teacher natin noh? Bombarded na tayo masyado. Pero okey lang sanay na naman ako sa ganito.
Student 2: Ako, okey na memorize kuna teachings ni Confusius and nasimulan ko narin basahin.
___________________________________________________________________
At present or after matapos ang ganoong system. Ye presented a change and instead of the traditional way. Ito yun.
______________________________________________________________________
Scene 2:
Teacher: class, read the history and try to analyze what triggered the brutal tiannamen square massacre. Try to make a diagram on the events that took place during the era. Don’t need to memorize just take note some important points okey.
The following day:
Teacher: Good morning class, I assume that you have noted some important notes regarding the The Tiannamen Square Massacre.
Student 1: Its called in the US as the Tiannamen Square Massacre and called By the Chinese as the June fourth Massacre. It happened in Tiannamen Square o June 4, The people wanted to reform the political system which is the Chinese Communist Party.
Student 2: The people mourned the death of Hu Yaobang. resulting military response to the protesters by the PRC government left many civilians dead or severely injured. The number of deaths is not known and many different estimates exist.[3][4] * Nicholas D. Kristof of the New York Times estimated the death toll at 400-800 based on information he gathered from multiple medical sources.[4]
Student 3: Another maam, it has brought an effect to the world for it triggered the fall of Communist Parties in the world and many nations have given their sympathy including Philippines. The president in the Philippines was the late Corazon Aquino who is the mother of Pilippines Democracy.
PS: Guys pls improve this because I wont be around tomorrow, If naa pud mo new ideas better than this one kato nalang buhata ninyo just infom me what to do on Wednesday. Ang mga 2 secnes kaya ng old ug new nga gichange ni YE, sa old mao na memorize ang libro while ang new mao na nga try to structure the learning by not following the long contents sa books .

Piloka
Ilang saglit pa natapos na siya at ito ang resulta.
Another gift
Pagkadating sa bahay nakita ko ang brown LV bag na sakto lang sa aking laptop, kay mommy ito. Hiningi ko agad at binigay naman niya agad sa akin ito.
Another LV bag
Addictive Facebook Game
"hahahahaha its harvest time" sabi ko
Lumapit sina utol, paguing at apyang pati narin si mommy. Naririnig nila kasi ang mga salitang "harvest, planting, buy sa market, neighbors na kadalasan din nilang naririnig sa mga online gamers nila. May internet shop si utol na negosyo. Si wifey harvest time na kaya tiningnan nila si wifey na naglalaro. Naki osyoso din si mommy.
eto sila
Unang Tikim
Marami na ang nagsasabi na masarap daw inumin ang Bar Gin both gin and vodka. Meron itong ibat-ibat fruit taste. Sa madaling sabi timplado na ito like mixing gin and lime juice.
May dumating na taga sa amin na makitulog sa bahay tatlo sila Si Buboy, Loloy at Gaspar. May transaction sila sa talyer may pinagawa sa sasakyan, bumili ng mga pyesa ng sasakyan, nagbayad sa Globe at may mga hinatid nsa nakisakay sa kanila.
Sa bahay ng kapatid niLoloy sana sila tutuloy subalit puno na sila doon at walang maparkingan ng kanilang sasakyan kaya naiaisip nila na dito na sa bahay makitulog. Pagkatapos naming kumain ni wifey, nagyaya silang uminom. Inaya ku din silang maghapunan pero tapos na silang kumain.
Bumili sila ng inumin at bar gin ang kanilang binili.
Sa unang pagkakataon ay naranasan ko ang lasa nito.Nilasap ko ang bawat hagod nito sa aking lalamunan. Hindi naman pala itong matapang swabe lang subalit parang nakakasuka ito sa kalaonan.
After nito dahil sa lakas ng ulan from terrace ay sa dining table namin pinagpatuloy. Then we shifted to RH. Mahaba habang inuman ang usapan.
Kinunan ko ito ng larawan(The Bar)
