wall paintings of the nativity and the visit of the magi at a catholic church in london, artist unknown. since the yuletide season is fast approaching. they needed some touch up work i think although without it, still they are amazing pieces of art...bravo! when can i ever see them in real time? laughs. i really wish :)...wow, i dunno, so many beautiful handiwork of the mind and of the imagination. some boggles the mind. some gives us headaches just interpreting them alone ;) it is a lot easier to write string of words in my opinion and less time. i could whip one in 5 minutes, no kidding. depending on what kind of weather i am facing. but i tell you what, it is easier to write about sad and lonely nights than smiles and merry go rounds. i'm not lonely for i'd like to believe that i always strive to be the happiest person that i could ever be with the predicament that i'm in. it's not bad don't get me wrong but...you know we want more, like beaches and gardening all the time, laughs, plus helping someone every day of my life...these kind of things... so i just blog it away, my frustrations that is, laughs. oh well. tomorrow is another day, another dream, another illusion until the end... i'm sure there are much more fulfilling endeavours out there than blogging but...in the meantime, let this typewriter ticks...(^&*)... until i'm in that comfort zone :) if i wasn't a nurse i wonder if i could be a writer like mr. andy rooney :? i will surely write about the truth even how painful that was to me, i do it here although with restrictions for the cyberspace is a playground where there are good apples and bad bananas, laughs, pls. pardon the pun ;) oh well, again. but one thing for sure writing is an exercise of the mind. use it or lose it, you know how that saying goes :>
waiting to experience the renovated atmosphere of the ninoy aquino international airport within 2012 :) God willing, of course. i think a billion peso project like this one could only be done smoothly on the name sakes son's tenure of presidency. less obstruction for the present government is all for it for one thing. i was thinking which of these 2 has a better outcome. a 6 year term in office without re-election, that's what it is in the philippines for its president. although here it is a 4 year term with re-election. which of these 2 is good for the country, that is the question. but there are so many variables. one is what type of personality does that president has. is his or her agenda is to serve the people or to serve his or her own pocket. it can be very hard to resist the temptation of accumulating so much wealth esp. if it is in your power. you alone hold the key to the coffers of your country. so ergo the best is the parliamentary form of government where there is a prime minister and a president. this way there is that checks and balances stuff that is harder for corruptions of public officials to occur. why does the philippines had resisted this type of running the government in the first place is beyond me. maybe because precisely the reason if it existed there will be less or no corruption. and as we all know corruption is the big hindrance to progress. the main reason why the philippines is lagging behind its neighbors in development. let it begin with the airport but it should spread out to the country as a whole so that this beautiful place could prosper and won't be labeled as a third world country forever which is kinda sad...yes, i'm blogging again, laughs. with this issue it's hard not to give my 5 cents' take :) it is a country close to my heart and i want it to be uplifted, i want it to advance, i want it to reach to the "top of the world" like that song ...(^&*)... it's long time coming or it will never come at all. why progress can be sooo elusive in the philippines, not only me but i'm pretty sure a lot who are exposed to the amenities of a first rated world or most advanced countries on earth, in our lives we wonder about that all the time... we want change for our country. we pray and we want it soon... God could you please do that for us? :> ... pls. add that to our wishes and wants :)
finally justice for michael jackson... the verdict is in and the 12 jurors found him, his MD, guilty of involuntary manslaughter in the death of the king of pop. you would think that michael with all the financial means that he had could have obtained the best medical advice, the best medical care in the world but on the contrary he had gotten the worst and paid for his life. gone too soon, one of his songs, very appropriately at that in hind sight. i was an operating room nurse in the philippines and anesthetics are meds that are only dispensed in a hospital setting, never in a bedside or in a home where there are no monitoring or resuscitative equipment present and no additional health care personnel to monitor the patient's vital signs and progress while under the influence of these kind of drugs. ignorance in this case is not really bliss. the lesson here guys and gals is not to take any medications not unless you have to. i don't and i am a nurse. i understand their healing powers or effects but at the same time i'm fully aware or understands the side effects that these medications have that could potentially wreck havoc to human lives. addiction is for one. we all know this in familiarity for lots of young folks think that these recreational drugs are harmless and helpful for them but the truth is far from that. drugs destroy lives, that is a fact. taking drugs will cause death after making these addicted individuals to lose their minds, their future, their grip on reality and a happy life plus causing tremendous stress and problems to their families and love ones. if you are hooked on drugs please seek help immediately before it's too late. acknowledge and admit that you are a user. most people are accepting and have respect to those that have problems and dare to change their lives for the better. we are all humans, we are not perfect. we have love for our brothers and sisters in Christ who had fallen prey to this habit. we understand that one precious life saved is one too many. stop the use, say no to drugs from now on please if you care for your love ones. do it for them if not for your own self. free yourself from this bondage. ask for divine help and intervention and make this as a sacrifice for Jesus. a birthday gift for Him if you will :) so what are you waiting for? do it for Jesus...
and back to the michael jackson case... dr. conrad murray is a cardiologist. he should not have taken the job to be this late singer's personal physician even if the monthly salary of 150,000 USD per month is very tempting for that is a one year MD salary here :) and what was very funny was during the trial the 4 girl friends of this playboy MD, he has a wife mind you, all the 4 GF's were called to testify, not one GF but four, laughs. terrible! that was the fun part. looking and hearing these ladies and i'm sure in your face revelation that they are all being played upon one by one and at the same time. what a bummer of a guy, MD pa ha, laughs. oh well. so what can you expect. a caring physician, yes, for these multiple ladies but not certainly for the late demise singer. what a sad story, really...and they say that he might have to serve 4 years in prison time but it could be just around 2 years in jail for there are ways to serve his sentence in a very limited time. though he might lose his license to practice medicine, yeah, right in the U.S. siguro but he might be able to in other places outside of the U.S. diba, who knows...i know i am not kind to people like dr. murray, my sungay is being forced to come out, laughs. but can you blame me? a murderer and a womanizer, a sexual predator of ladies. poor women who fall for this kind of man...
andy rooney, i truly admire this writer :)
dead at age 92, but michael jackson was only 50 when he died...42 years difference of living. that is a lot of time on earth that the talented singer and dancer was deprived of. but God called for his borrowed life to be returned...
if a writer is given the rare chance or opportunity to write what ever is in his mind and he writes about the truth...one is lucky in life indeed like andy rooney, plus living for 92 years, he was blessed :) RIP mr rooney. your words are true, that i gave it to you :)
