Why Like That???

Hey, classmates, what did you all feel about the week that passed? I’ve got a good sentence for that, courtesy of Tenten, “This week is not prolific. “ She got it from the spelling words. Well anyways, pretty boring and nothing much have been learned at all. I was so bored and for sure, everybody was. For a ton of homework loaded upon thy shoulders! Thou cannot find time for thy self anymore. As I was saying, I would not want to repeat everything that I put on by blog the last time (refer to One Week of Exhaustion, Saturdays and Sundays, not enough.) Anyways, can’t we have any assignments for the weekend? I mean please… We all get tired too once in a while and in our part, we really are too shattered too much.

Most of the time, homework is always my topic. It is because thy cannot see anything more timely than that. If you go to the place I study, ahh guaranteed, prepare for a week of terrible explosion of a load of assignments. Why can’t we get a few of these or better off without them. Why, what in the world is up with homework huh? What’s all with these tasks? It’s like” school works turn into chores” courtesy of Ten again. Sheesh, why? Why? Why?!? The heck with all these stuffs. I know we need them to be used to harder stuffs when we grow up but this is just too much. Seat works, home works, projects, research problems, too much answer sheets where in it’s too hard to get the answers! We’ve got them all for you! Sounds kind of awful right? We’ll if you’re in our shoes, it would be!

Pretty boring… That’s what life is all about. You eat, you sleep and you grow. Oh I almost forgot that we study as well! Silly me, it must have slipped in my mind for I’m always doing that everyday! Why everyday because we just got five school days? Well we do our homework for the weekends as well. Talk about free time. I ain’t got any of them left! Whew, blogging just makes me explode. I can tell anything I want for this is my world and Mai Blog! Nothing is illegal here. All written is what my brain tells me to do! So, maybe next time, hopefully we’ll have another unprolific week!

The Man Behind It All


One man, one person, he’s my inspiration. He’s my dad. When I was still young, my father wasn’t always there to take care of us or even play with us. But as soon as I grew older and had a mind of my own, I easily observed that he had those nice traits that most dads with short temper don’t possess. He was very sympathetic for a guy. He doesn’t get angry at our mistakes easily but instead, he teaches us the right thing to do, try to cope up to cope up to our situations just as so that he can grasp our very little problems that made us do these mistakes and in return he gives us those words of wisdom. One more thing, he is a very cooperative man. Nothing could match this trait of his when it comes to helping others. He doesn’t care whether that person isn’t that much of a good guy or a very good guy. He only helps them in the extent that he could do. Finally, the best thing he possesses is being religious. Even if he’s busy at work, he never forgets about God. I always seeing him praying at night and he always invites us to come with him to church and pray. He doesn’t only amaze me but I look up o him as my hero, my role model and my dad, the greatest person who taught me those traits I know today and will continue to practice until I grow up.

At first I didn’t believe it. I thought she was just kidding but then, I told her that what she wrote was fine enough and it touches my heart. She really has grown and I hope she’ll never change as she grows up. –Mauro V. Ilagan-

If parents will listen…

Man, are you part of those who get irritated if certain things are too darn slow?? Well, I wasn’t before but maybe now that I got full of it, might as well join the group. What made be get frustrated about slow stuffs, well let’s say internet connections?

Owww I remember those times we had the computer set up with the Dial up network. Yes the internet this way is affordable and cheaper, more accessible too except if you run out of internet cards. I was so patient with every download I’ll do. Though the file size is only 5 Mb, it’ll take me 20 min just to finish it or if the connection gets lower than a max of 52 Kbps, it’ll take you more than an hour. Talk about waiting for a million years. This stuff doesn’t take a lot out of you but also a whopping portion of your monthly electric bill.

I’ve been trying to tell this to my parents but all they think that’ll I’ll do is to use the connection for playing. Like how could I do that if our computer only has a memory of 160 Mbit of RAM huh? Talk about slow! It’s not only the internet connection but the computer itself as well.

This is just one aspect of stuffs harder to do if they wouldn’t lend you a helping hand. They can’t be blamed for money is hard to get these days. Well, if only….

Nah, never mind about it. Sooner or later if they’re the ones who uses it they’ll realize at least for a few minutes. Why not try it? I tried to make them use the computer with such a crappy connection and guess what happened? Well they started complaining about why is it to slow to load? What’s up with this thing its too slow. Yatta, yatta etc… See, if they complain what more would I?

Hehehehehehe, hope ya guys got something out of this. Pretty weird huh? You’d never know how they’d feel if they are the ones to do it by themselves. Hey, tell me if you experience the same. I really want to know. Well till next time. And if some parents will see this, well, I’m so sorry but this is just my opinion based from what I’ve experienced.

My Familys Tale to Tell


Simply typical is the word to be describe my family. Nothing mixed but is purely wholesome in origin. Fully Filipino that's what it is and this is my Family's tale to tell.

Everything started during the late 50's. Love really brought two people closer which they didn't even expected. Seeing that both of my great grand parents started out as very good friends, who would expect that something special have happened after they were brought together. They ended up marrying each other and still keeping their promises to each other. Having been staying together for a very long time, the fruit of their love bore five children. They were Apolonia Lindong, Binancio Lindong, Clara Lindong, Juana Lindong and my grandmother,Isabela Lindong.

Truly they were a symbol of a happy family. Each cooperated with the farm work great grandfather have been
continuing to work with eversince his teenege years. Well, the only thing constant in this world is change so soon enough, the happy family slowly disbanded due to each having found a new home and family when they settled down. My grandmother met up with my grandpa when they were still at a very young age. Well they said that grandpa's parents were expert bilao makers still that didn't reflect much on grandpa. My grandpa Leon was a very promising man indeed far from making bilao. He showed great prowess in fighting for what is right. Maybe that's why grandma decided to go with him even at the age of 18. They were both happy and had five healthy and normal children. They were Elma, Miguela, Perfecto,Juan, and my mother, Luisa. Everything was going fine until my grandpa was called out to participate in World War 1. This was a shocking news to everyone in the family but nobody made it a big deal. Grandpa having been training for momemts like these assured his family that he'd come back alive. And he did. He even joined the World War 2. But after living a perilous life, grandpa passed away with a heart related ailment. They didn't get the chance to even cure it due to money problems.

Still, one must move on so despite of all those tragic events, mom still met up with my MindoreƱo dad. Having told me that
he just saw mom in her dormitory, he already courted her. Barely unbelievable but yes, it's true. You would never know what gets into peoples heads. Well, that's where me, my sister Mharlotte and brother John Felix comes in. They told us that we were a bunch of annoying and naughty little brats and a little bit of useless. Still, playing was what we always did when we were younger which made us grow a little bit childish. They regretted nothing about this so I can say, we are really one big happy family starting from the roots to the fruits.

What's with Hate???

I really observed this from some people so don’t get me wrong. I don’t want to hate people. I just want to make this extra short and state an opinion. Enjoy?!?
Does anyone hate something that you don’t know why you hate it?How is it possible to HATE a celebrety , a football club or people who don’t do anything to you for short. All I can tell is…

People dislike some people and like others. Maybe the blog is a good thing. Maybe its an opportunity for people to get things off their chests and not take their hatred out on people around them. Certain posters on here can be verbally abusive and show hate others. I can't imagine what these people must be like to live with.

True but maybe most of them aren`t as bad as they seem to be.Dislike I understand,but it`s all this hate that I don`t get.Maybe they use the word hate instead of dislike,but some people really sound very bitter.It seems they let all the hate go to the celebs,vegetarians or Arsenal,instead of doing something with what`s really the problem in their lives.I don`t say that is the case of everybody but sometimes it seems to be.

All this is getting to nowhere, maybe its just because you’ve got a natural feeling against them that’s all probably, If you hate them then leave them. Don’t bother yourself with such stuffs. What’s important is everybody’s happy. Who cares if you get to hate them. Sooner or laer you’d get to love them too.

Why is this my topic this week? Maybe the tests just got in my head. What if we try to love exam days huh? Probably that’ll get us a higher grade. Man! I’m reall talking to myself. Well time to end this craziness before it gets into a haywire. Till next time. Visit again sometime. Heck what’s all with this goood byes… We’ll see each other next week!

Start Them out Right

When a person is still young, better train them the way on how to live. Not much of us were started this way but it is really advisable. This became my topic for this week’s blog entry of mine for I remembered this when I saw children in our neighborhood being taught on how to do stuffs at a very young age, about four or five.


For first time moms, children maybe a very big pain in the butt when they start growing at the age of four. They really get into your nerves for they are little toddlers who don’t want to listen when you try to make them obey. If you let them obey, they just keep on complaining about it. Nevertheless if you’d give them a treat, they’d do anything you say. That’s the good part of it but, never ever do this always. Children will think that every time you make them do something, they’d end up asking for something like a prize. They’d grow up in a way of thinking helping has a price to be paid. That isn’t right.


Those were not the only stuffs I got to observe in the neighborhood, though some people here train their children right; most of them just let them walk the streets even at night, unattended with no care of what so ever will happen to his beloved child. Hold on, shouldn’t kids be at home before six? They’ll miss their dinner and be late for bedtime if they don’t. Still, the worse part of that is what if they get kidnapped by some kidnappers lurking around town or if not, they’d get used to that kind of atmosphere and would just grow up enjoying the great life outdoors. Sound like a little camper in the making huh? No! That isn’t exactly what I meant! If they would grow this way, they’d turn out to be the rebellious and hard headed. They won’t look up to you as their parents but just a bunch of policemen who just implements rules on the do’s and don’ts. Much more than that, they’d choose those people who are a bad influence to everybody. Then he’d be a famous burglar and be on the newspapers, next thing you’d know, he already has a reward put on him, about half a million or so. And… Man! It’s too many. The consequences of raising a child the wrong way can be compared to a tree root, they branch out as one grows older.

Well, probably everyone knows the effects of making a child grow the right way. It’s like raising a puppy, if you’d teach them a bunch of good behaviors and nice tricks, they’d grow up loving you but whip them, ignore them and teach them to bite people, and they’d live by that way. Once you wanted to change an old bad dog you raised, it’s too late, and you can no longer teach old dog new tricks.

I hope I made my point and you’d understand what I’ve said. I know all of these because I’m observing these everyday. Though I don’t have plans to raise children, I want to see some being raised the right way, for some moms out there or even big sisters who takes care of their little brothers, what are you waiting for, start them out right! Heck is what I’ve said kind of awkward? Or did I bore you a lot? Sorry ‘bout that. And again this is Maikka saying bye, until next time if you’d ever go visit here again. \m/J\m/

What is the Purpose of My Existence




Why do we exist? It surely isn't for ourselves, but for one another. Well, that's what I realized for myself. However, you don't have to be a great thinker to realize this. Common sense is all that is necessary. After all, the fact that we are social animals is self-evident. We would not exist if it were not for the cooperation of two individuals (our parents). So, you see, we need one another.



For some people, they still don't know why but for me, when I got to think of it, this idea entered my mind. People need each other. We will be the ones who'd help others who are in great need or even better is the one who'd return the favor our parents gave us, our life. Helping others does'nt mean that you'd really help everybody in distress but means that you'd help through the extent of what we can give not we couldn't achieve.



Now, I'll explain how this cooperation plays the role in my existence. Even if I was still young, I thought of having a job that could be useful for my family and to others who might need them too so I decided to be a doctor. In this way, I can help maintain my family's health status because most of us are prone to different diseases. I also pity those who couldn't get a regular check-up and a good deal of medicine so I wanted to help them too, in my own little way.



It might sound too ambitious of me right? But I know through determination and hardwork maybe I'd serve my purpose and live a happy life in this tough and miserable world. Life really is complicated and unless you have your will to live and direction in life, you'd be going the right way. We may think that we're lost at first but soon after the hard struggle in going through the rough roads of yours or mine, we'll be able to get what we want and fulfill our desires.


Well, the reason I'm still here is to serve that purpose of returning the favor our parents and God gave me. I want to pay all those back by doing what I could do and making the best out of life. I don't want to waste chances so I'll continue what I started like a tree, once a seedling then as time passes by grows big going through lots of experiences.
