of greek gods and demigods

i was really entertained by the movie
"Percy Jackson and the Olympians: the Lightning Thief"...
it was based from the book also titled as such...
it is a modern day application of ancient Greek mythology to bring resonance to contemporary thoughts...
i really like it

i don't believe in the Greek gods and demigods, but if i were a god i would be Poseidon and Athena's son because i love water and wisdom so much...

son of Zeus
son of Poseidon
son of Hades

judge me in the most unbiased way

this is harassment:

a few months back, our student council had a project... everything went well, and i even submitted the liquidation report...

at the end of the school year, we were summoned by the dean's office to submit the liquidation report for the said project... they said that we did not submit it... i was offended because it's my honesty and integrity that they're questioning... we tried to prove them wrong by presenting a photocopy of the liquidation report submitted (i never submit a report unless i have a photocopied version), but they said that it does not prove anything since there is no "received" stamp... my rebuttal was "they never stamped on my photocopied reports!!", now if that is the case, then why did they not say that all of the reports were missing...? now my good friend cannot enroll this coming semester because of this unresolved issue... another thing, whenever we talk to them, they just say "bahala ka" or "it's not with us"...they don't even try to listen! what on earth!?

be the judge, who's fault is it?

sa tuwing babanat si Confucius, napapanis ang lahat

"to learn and to practice what is learned time and again is pleasure, is it not? to have friends come from afar is happiness, is it not? to be unperturbed when not appreciated by others is gentlemanly, is it not?"
-Confucius

i checked the website of the Asian Center of the University of the Philippines in Diliman and i am so thrilled to take up my MA East Asian Studies (major in China or Japan-undecided), and my tri-college PhD in Philippine Studies (major in Philippine Foreign Relations *from UP Asian Center*; Philippine Literatures *from UP College of Arts & Letters*; and Anthropology, Demography, Geography, History, Philosophy, Political Science, or Sociology *from UP College of Social Sciences and Philosophy*)

june 30, 2010

June 30, 2010 is the day...
will mr. benigno "noynoy" aquino be president? and will mr. mar "mr.palengke" roxas be vice president?
honestly, i don't like them...
i told myself that i will be on a hunger strike if noynoy wins and i will be on strike/rally if both noynoy and mar wins...
noynoy did nothing in congress, not to mention "not having his own decision" to be president of our country... it's a shame that we vote for incompetent, "no political will" people in office... what a father did does not reflect the capability of his son, that would be fallacious... his mother is not a hero, especially during her time when coup's were very common...
mar roxas did something, but not that much of a thing...he didn't even pursue his "palengke" stuff, or so i think...
and this is why i condemn them

winter's concept of liberalism

liberalism, for others, means that one should be able to adapt to social change and modernization...one who adapts easily to social networks, new stuff, so-called liberal thoughts like drinking, smoking and even smoking pot...

i say liberalism means being able to choose wisely from a pool of choices... being able to say yes or no or making your own "real" stand on issues... you don't have to be a drinker or smoker to be liberal...just be yourself and choose what you think is right at the time, now that's liberalism for me...

contentions? talk to me, please...
