Don't Worry, Be Happy, It's Christmas!

One time, when I and my friends walked along a sidewalk to buy some stuffs, we saw a blind and rugged musician playing two instruments, it was a guitar and a harmonica. You know, we were really amazed because aside from the fact that he was an old blind man, he can play both instruments at the same time! It was a beautiful rendition then of his "Silent Night". People were very impressed of his talent because he had such talent that other norms don't have.While I was listening to the song, I feel that the smell of Christmas is in the air and is fast approaching so I gave 5-peso to the musician for us to move on.

But still, my thoughts did not get over to the musician. I felt pity for him because sitting all day long playing his instruments under the heat of the sun is not easy. For the sake of living, you should give yourself so that you live your life fulfilled. If the blind man, despite of his weaknesses, was able to earn a living for their Christmas how much you can do!

Oh..what a name Christmas..being associated with the words love and unity..there's nothing impossible when you try things. Even when you're facing problems and can't figure out how to find an answer for those, be happy and push yourself away from those stuffs. it's Christmas! Wait for the coming of Christ and he will lend a hand for you, he will help you.

Do reflect on the blind man's sacrifice, he loves his job, just as he loves god by playing the songs of Christmas. So don't mind about materialistic things, remember, true Christmas is not about giving and receiving gifts, it's about peace, love and most especially how we receive God to our ourselves. Don't keep on frowning, don't worry and be happy..for Christmas is here!!

So Seasons greetings to all of you....Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!

Love ♥ Lots,

Cindy♪♫♪

Eskandalo sa Simala

Ni Charmaine P. Lirazan and Rolando R. Morallo

KANHI mga monghe nipasangil nga dunay mga “milagro” nga nahitabo sa monasteryo sa Lindugon, Sibonga.

Apan ang milagro di gikan sa milagrusong Birhen kon di mga binuhatan ra usab sa mga monghe.

Gihagit hinuon sa usa ka opisyal sa simbahan ang mga namasangil nga moreklamo sa simbahan ug di iagi sa media kon ang pagsumpo sa kahiwian ang ilang katuyoan.

Si Bro. Paul Cabillon nga niangkong boluntaryong nibiya sa monasteryo nibulgar sa giingong mga hiwi nga binuhatan sa mga monghe nga naglakip sa homosexuality, sodomy, ug pagpangwarta sa interview sa dyAB kagahapon.

Napugos si Bro. Paul sa pagbutyag niini tungod usab sa pagpakauwaw kaniya.

Apan, si Nene Alegado, usa ka deboto sa Birhen ug dakong tigsuporta sa kongregasyon, niingon ngadi siya makatuo sa alegasyon.

Matod niya, ang kontrobersyal nagsugod lang sa mga boluntarya ug naapektohan ang mga monghe.

“In fairness sa mga monghe, nagtinarong na sila..,” dason ni Alegado.

Ning tuiga, napublikar sa Bag-ong Lungsuranon, ang opisyal nga mantalaan sa simbahan sa Sugbo, nga ni-absent without official leave (Awol) si Bro. Paul maong gipahimangnoan ang publiko nga di na siya konektado sa Marian Monks of Eucharistic Adoration aron usab di na makapahigayon og transaksyon dala ang ngalan sa maong monasteryo.

Apan matod niya nga siya maoy nihawa kay di na niya matulon ang sistema monasteryo.

Iyang gisaysay nga samtang bag-o palang siya sa monasteryo, usa ka labaw nga monghe ang nisaka sa iyang lawak ug nipugos sa pakighilawas kaniya o sodomy.

Nisuway sa pagkontra si Bro. Paul kay matod niya sagrado ang ilang dapit apan wa gihapoy nahimo ug nahitabo gyud ang malaw-ay nga binuhatan.

Dugang niya nga di lang siya maoy nabiktima sa sodomy kon di apil na ang ubang mga monghe.

Niadtong Agusto sa miaging tuig, atol sa kasaulogan sa silver jubilee sa monasteryo, giingong nagpahigayon og Miss Gay pagent ang mga monghe sud mismo sa monasteryo diin si Bro. Paul ang nigawas nga second runner-up.

Si Bro. Dodong Torres, laing aspirant pagka-monghe, nipasangil nga maong nihawa siya tungod sa malaw-ay nga binuhatan.

Matod niya nga sagad sa mga “milagro” mahitabo sa comfort room sa higayon nga mangaligo sila.

Sila nipasangil nga si Bro. Martin Mary, ang founder sa monasteryo nasayod niining tanan apan way gihimo aron kini mahunong.

Mismong si Bro. Martin ang gipasanginlan ni Bro. Dodong nga nihimo og di maayong binuhatan kaniya dihang gidala siya niini sa usa ka kapilya di layo sa monasteryo.

Giingong gihalog siya ni Bro. Martin apan giingnan lang nga inamahan ang iyang pagtagad maong di angayang hatagan og malisya.

My Reaction to Chip Tsao

IT was a sudden outbreak here in the Philippines when the public noticed that there was a column written by a Chinese columnist named Chip Tsao entitled 'The War At Home'. I even noticed this issue last night when it was reported openly in the Philippine television. When it was said that they even posted it in the internet, I quickly ran unto my PC and search to witness what's this 'controversial issue' is all about. Luckily, I found it and didn't waste time to read the whole article of his.

Hmmp..How dare is he? What's the connection of sending gunboats to guard the island and the Filipino maids? Did he think about more than hundreds of Filipino performers who work in HK Disney Land attracts more tourists? As he sobriquet Philippines as 'a nation of servants', did he even think that they are also more deserving to be called as 'a nation of 'imit' goods and pirated items'? or a nation of the biggest smugglers in a country?

If these Tsao is truly a patriotic guy then he should not make false accusations against other country. If he really loves Hong Kong as well then he should not put Hong Kong into shame about they are degrading a country. I have a question. Why is it only Philippines? Why can't he put the other countries who also joined the possession of the island if he are going to make an article just like this? Is it Philippines has the most number of maids/servants who works abroad and consider it as the lowest job in the society?

If I were Louisa, why should I have a long stay with him? I will definitely leave voluntarily if war breaks out between the 2 countries. I should not also let a monstrous monster haunt me inside his cave and still a slave for him. Let him wash his filthy and smelly shit toilet and clean his cheap and dusty windows by himself. Ohh, I love him doing that.

If it was not to him, this controversy doesn't exist. But he started the fire and blow us in grief and justice. I bet that this 'CHEAP' Tsao is laughing very very loud NOW in his house. I'm starting idolizing him as the 'BEST SATIRICAL COLUMNIST' badly and 'BEST IN PATRIOTISM' for he put his country into shame and berated a country. WOW!! Let the Spratly Islands be theirs and kill them to death, now they are near to us. This is humiliating! I pity him because he is an educated but doesn't act like an educated. Tsk..tsk..tsk.. Poor Tsao. I'm sorry to hurt his feelings. The entire Philippines is shouting on you. Peace be unto you. God Bless Man!!

9 Reasons People Cheat

Well as I told you before,..Cheating is a tactic in a game but I don't know if it will be applicable when it comes to love..I bet that no one in this world since their young age do not experience cheating..even I commit it also but not as always..
So, are cheaters born cheaters, or do certain situations cause people to cheat? Probably a little bit of both. Here are some situations that make people cheat:

1. Bored
I'd say this is the most common reason that people cheat.It's tough to keep that edge throughout a relationship. Things start off grand and then level off and then you both realize that it's still real life. When you meet someone else, that inaugural excitement of a new relationship kicks back in.

2. Dependence
At first glance, cheating seems like independent behavior. It could be interpreted as doing what you want, when you want. But I would argue that cheating is a dependent behavior. A cheater is dependent because they are not strong enough to break up with their significant other in order to get with the new person.
3. Confusion
Sometimes life or a particular situation can get to you. When the perfect storm of confusion is going on in your head, you make mistakes.

4. Because They Let You
If any girl ever cheated on me, I'd break up with her immediately. Forgiving a cheater is putting up with it, and starts a vicious cycle. That person who cheated may lose respect for you and might continue to cheat-because they know they can get away with it, because you'll continue to take them back.

5. Nurturing
If someone is mistreating you, then your first instinct is to get away from him or her. But sometimes it's not that simple-maybe you are raising kids together. If you feel trapped in a bad relationship, it's only natural that you will run to the open arms of a person who treats you well.

6. Revenge
This is quite simple- an eye for an eye. Cheat on them if they cheat on you. If they continuously hurt you or abuse you in some way, you do it to get them back.

7. Confirmation of AttractivenessSometimes when you're in a long relationship, or if your significant other is taking you for granted, you begin to wonder if you're still attractive. Perhaps, because you were out on the dating circuit, you felt more attractive when you were single. If you have an affair, you've proven that a new person can be attracted to you.

8. The ThrillSome people just enjoy the thrill of cheating: running around secretly, risking getting caught, andcreating thrilling moments with a forbidden romance.

9. They Don't Consider It Cheating, Even Though You MightRelationships have that grey area, usually right before you become exclusive. He thinks date #4 is when you're "together," and you think date #2 is when you're "together." If you haven't talked about exclusivity, someone may think they are well within their rights to see other people, even though the other person in the relationship may not.

I don't understand why people don't break up as soon as they have an urge to cheat. Is it natural to have temptation, or is temptation a sign that the relationship is losing its fire? What reasons would you add to this list, and do you disagree with any? If you've ever cheated, why did you do it? Could you forgive a cheater? If you are single, but seeing a person who is in a committed relationship, does that make you a cheater?

BLOOMING Panagbenga Festival

The Panagbenga Festival is held during the month of February in Baguio City, Philippines. This festival got its own name Panagbenga from a kankanaey term meaning " season of blooming". If you'll personally visit Baguio for this festival, you'll be delighted to see the coloful and dozens of flowers being put in floats as it is being parade in the road. How I wish we could visit there to witness how beautiful it is to see the dances, the people and the feast itself.

Baguio, being called as "the Summer Capital of Philppines" is one of the most visited Tourist Spots in the country. It is so because the temperature is cold, the vegetables and fruits are abundant and can buy in cheaper price and where the distinct Ifugaos live.

Never Judge a Person

You know, I was so upset. You know why?

Well, I will tell you this as a secret between the two of us and please don't dare to tell anyone else..Here I go. I will start my story~~~

It was 9:00 am and I started eating my snack in the classroom. My INTELLIGENT classmates are roaming around to ask who are those fellas that are included in TOP 15. They noticed me (I don't know why) and ask me if I were included in the list and what place I am. I retorted and say..

"No, I wasn't included, but I'm in 21st place"

You know what my classmates responded?

They laughed at me..What a reaction!!!
In those times that they laughed in front of me .. I looked at myself and suddenly dusk hit upon me..I realize that I'm so low and weak that I can't stand on my own..

From the start, I look down myself as an ugly,dumb and unworthy person. But I came out of my shell and began to have what we called 'SELF ESTEEM' for my family and friends who are always there for me to coax and told me to cheer up all times. But of all those efforts that I've done to be POSITIVE and be CONFIDENT will just be ruined and turned into devastation by the people who don't even feed me and who don't even hold my life?!!

I cried, for the world that I stepped on now is not fair. Why? Because they made people almost perfect except me. Why do they have to laugh me?Is it because they are smart while I am not..??I described them as the 'DISCRIMINATOR' and I don't like their traits. Even though they are smart, they should not look down others and find their weaknesses in a person.

Upon hearing this, my one classmate (who joined the laughing or started it probably) approached me and ask for an apology. It takes minutes for me to decide and to be alone and I forgave her. If Jesus forgives us sinners why can't I forgive them?

Life is not always at the top. I wish that someday, people don't see me as an ugly person but someone a friend who can give advices. NEVER JUDGE A PERSON whom you didn't know yet. You must see to it that before prejudice others is you must look what's in yourself. Today, I thanked Heavenly Father for giving lecture in this day. Therefore, I conclude that not all people have the same characteristics and he made us different. We should treat one another as brothers and sisters. Praise the Lord!!!

Happy Cindy during her first call in radio..

Note: This blog was posted last May 2008, Mother's Day..I felt delighted when I read this again so I get it from my Xanga account!! 

Yippee! I was so happy what happened in Mother's day last night.I didn't expect that this will happen to me.I was able to call the radio station where you are given a chance to greet your mother a HAPPY MOTHER's DAY!You know already that you're not that the only one who can greet on air because millions and billions of listeners are intending also to call on the radio.But as what I have said,I'm one of the lucky listeners that was chosen to greet on air for their loving mothers.I can't believe it,because this is my first time and I'm not so sure if I will be pick up as a greeter.When the DJ said to call up and gave their number I quickly ran to our phone and start dialing the numbers.I was not so fast to dial up the numbers.But when the phone rang I was shocked and so happy when the DJ greeted me HELLO and asked my name.Were two in the living room,my cousin and I.My cousin listens to the radio and I answered the phone.When the DJ asked where do I live,I answer so loudly and gracefully.And the good thing is the DJ was very impressed to me.Since it's mother's day he gave me 10 seconds to greet my mom and I was able to greet her but not all the members of the house because 10 seconds was done already.The DJ said GOODBYE to me.After that,I shout out loud and jump higher .I think,a simple thing can make a person happy.As a child you should be happy because you greeted your mother and it will be aired throughout the city!
Belated Happy Mother's Day!!!!

If you're in Cebu,Philippines, please choose the hittest and most famous radio station in the Queen City of the South,the 99.5RT Nindota Ah!

What most students do when Achievement Test comes?

proper shading is the way to get your answers validated

Well, some diligent students are preparing for this because they believe it counts the score they've got. They have to cram by studying and read every page in a book to get higher grades.

Achievement Test like NAT (National Achievement Test) has to be taken nationwide by students all over the schools in the Philippines to determine the literacy rate and their IQ (intelligence quotient). It determines also how a student copes up with the lesson they took up and which region has a higher teaching level either in public schools or in private schools.

So how about those students who are so-called "happy-go-lucky"?

When I think of these fellows, I feel pity for them. It's not only in them but also to their parents. Not all the time the parents could sustain their necessities to their studies because not anytime they could have money. Parents are working too hard to give their child some allowance and in their requirements. They are doing this because they expect their children would finish school, find a good job and help them when they are getting older.

But it seems students nowadays are waiting for luck. Some students are now faced in a modern technological society where they are very hooked on to the gadgets that's in today. Back to the topic, when they hear the word 'achievement test' they feel bored and pressured because instead spending time to relax, they have to review for the past lessons they've tackled. When I asked a student from a public school he just answered:

a reviewer for you to be prepared

"How could I get worried for that test. It's just a test for you to answer either you'll take it seriously or to just make fun of it. It's a multiple choice and it doesn't affect your grades. Anyways, it will be checked after the school year.." said he.

When I jotted down his statement, questions have grown and risen up in my mind. How could he say that it doesn't affect his grades and you can make fun of it? I realize that some students don't think about how important it is to take this achievement test. Don't you know that NAT is important to find out how the students in the Philippines excel and progress when it comes to academics and for the Department of Education to add some school curricula to motivate the students' mind?

~~My ModeLLinG MoMents~~

I feel a kind of jealousy when I saw beautiful girls wearing beautiful outfits that is very in this year..But I can't follow the way they dress because there such hindrances that I can't do so..so what I did, though I'm CHUBBY or somewhat kind of a fat girl who's dreaming to become a model, I try to myself not to lose hope..reducing one's weight is not a quick process but it acquires discipline of the foods you eat and time to wait for you to become a fit and active person..
You know, this picture below is what I admired most..how I wish I will become such..a clothing line model??not bad..



This is Angelina Jolie, she is pretty pregnant here, but not like others she is not noticeable preggy because she keeps her body in shape...
She is beautiful,white and tall..I like her because she's ready to help needy people..

So much for Ms. Jolie-Pitt, I wish to become like her..Sometimes I laugh myself for being a chubby person..I'm a computer addict and I found ways to be seen in pictures as a fit and cute girl..you know what's my secret??

I EDITED them!!!I found myself contented when I saw my edited pics..I feel I'm the original and genuine model of those..so here are they..



Though they are quite noticeable..I'm happy for what I've done..It's not too late to change the changes..I keep on believing that I'll become famous someday..

Chances are about to come if you have OPTIMISM and SELF-RELIANT..as what Barbie Movies I've seen it says "Live your Dream" .. Go CinDy Go.!!
