Abandoned.

I never thought that all I was living for would be gone and would perish. When all that I spent preparing for the future just won't work since I will be alone heading on that path. It's hard when your journey in life are now miles away, when you turn back it's only you and no one other else. How will you ever find your way back? when you realize you are their standing alone in the middle of no where. All those plans are gone, those laughter will remain to remind me something that was sad.

It's a foul feeling knowing no one's gonna be there for you. It's a grueling emotion that someone left and abandoned you. The feeling of being dumped, cheated and replaced in a sense that when you comeback your not getting anything else. It's like trying to give a toy to a child but after the child reaches your hand your not just gonna give it.

How would you dictate your feelings that you are just fine even if you are not. How are you gonna face those days that's ahead of you? And when all of a sudden those memories just flush in your head. Some are just remarkable moments felt with infinite happiness, some moments were filled with promises that were left unspoken. And now you know that those promises were just lies. Thinking and accepting those words were just alibis which were really lies in the first place.                                        

I always swore to be loyal and true to someone. But why did it ended like this? Is this the way all things stand all of a sudden? So it was just a lie along the road and merely it was just like a game.  If truth was not exploited with pride and tend not to lie then things would not be so confusing.

When all what's left in you are those words that she said that keeps running in your head. All those words that made you realize that there was guilt in the middle of those words. That pride was there to kill the scenario and to dictate the flow of the decision.  Time just elapsed by and it just turned out to be a sudden and tragic moment.

When there was no chance for a second chapter of our lives. When I believe there was still another chance because I knew when I looked at her eyes. Something was still inside waiting, but it was just ignore and never given a chance.

And I doubt that those feelings didn't fade because not even amnesia can erase those memories in the past.  Those scars that will remain that would make you realize that our past was real.

And sometimes it's quite hard to keep fighting when you are on the losing side. Others just misunderstood you because of your actions. Sometimes giving up doesn't mean that a person quits. It's either they gave way or made a sacrifice. And sometimes the only person you can trust now is yourself. Which I realize in the first place I never really had the trust that I deserve.

Still finding the reasons what went wrong and how it ended. I think I'm gonna be trapped on this constant confusion for the rest of my days. My mind struggles to forget but my heart doesn't surrender only pain can win this fight in the end and that feeling I'm familiar with.

Maybe until I will held my head up high and keep moving on forward. There was no point in my life that I regret when all we can say before that "We used to be the best". But I guess now only time and God will judge this whole thing.

Giant Crocodile

A massive crocodile weighing one ton (1,075kg) has been caught by villagers in a remote area in the Philippines. At 21ft. (6.4m), it is thought to be one of the biggest crocodile to be caught alive.

After weeks of hide-and-seek with the crocodile hunters, the big lizard was finally caught in one of the traps set by the hunters. It is reported that some residents of the village was gone and is believed to be attacked by the said crocodile that was caught. One of which reportedly gone was a little girl.

After the big croc was caught, many of the villagers were thankful because they can now sleep tight without the thought of being eaten by the giant animal. The animal was then turned over to the authorities for it to be kept safe and away from humans so that it can't harm anyone anymore.

It is reported that one of the hunters was hurt during the capture of the said animal. The crocodile swept its huge tail and hit the leg of one of the hunters that cause it to be fractured and broken. The injured hunter was then immediately taken to the nearby hospital to be cared for.

Now that the big crocodile was caught, it is said that there is another crocodile living in the said area which is bigger than the caught one. And while villagers was happy with the caught of the first, they are still in danger to be fallen victim for the second and bigger crocodile.

Crocodile hunters said that they will pursue the other crocodile up until December and hopefully they will capture it by then. Because when December comes, the rains will start falling and the water level will be as high as ever and it will then be hard for them to operate in that said condition.

Astronaut traces on the Moon

A spacecraft that circles the moon captured a high quality photo of the moon. In this photo shows the tracks and trashes left by the Apollo astronauts in their moon visits from 1969 - 1972.

These images were taken by NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter which is located around 13 to 15 miles from the moons surface. The images shows the paths that the astronauts left while walking on the moon as well as ruts left by the moon buggy. Some experts can even identify some backpacks that the astronauts pitched out of their lunar landers on the way back to Earth.

"What we're seeing is a trail," said Arizona State University geology professor Mark Robinson, the orbiters chief scientist. "It's totally awesome," he added. Robinson also said that the orbiter isn't close enough to see individual footprints of the astronauts.

The images were snapped in August 2011 that shows the landing sites of Apollo 12, 14 and 17. The closest image taken were that of the Apollo 17 site of 1972, the last moon mission.

Canine with the biggest ears!

Meet Harbor, the black-and-tan coonhound owned by Jennifer Wert of Boulder Colorado. He is the Guinness world record holder for the longest canine ears in the planet. His left one measures 12¼in while the right is longer at 13½in.

Coonhound breed was developed to hunt raccoons with the long ears sweeping the smell to their ears.

Harbor's ear span is greater than the height of the worlds smallest man which is Junrey Balawing who is only 23.5 inches tall. His ears is also wider than the worlds road-legal car which is 26 inches wide.

Longest Sea Bridge

The World's Longest Sea Bridge was unveiled by China not long ago. The bridge will have a total length of 26.4 miles (42.58km) and is connecting Qingdao and Huangdao which will also cut the route by 20minutes travel time.

The massive engineering breakthrough said to have cost £5.5billion to build and took the Chinese four years to complete the whole structure. The bridge is said to be opened and available this coming New Year for the Chinese people. The bridge dethroned the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway in Louisiana by almost 3miles as the longest bridge in the world.

The structure will be holding the title as the longest bridge for only a couple years because it will be dethroned by another Chinese bridge in the next years.

The Green Rainbow!

Have you ever seen a Green Rainbow? If not, well, this might be an interesting post for you!

Revisiting Caniago Island Day 1

Last May my colleagues and I decided to have a last blow of summer as the group decided to go to canigao island in Matalom Leyte. Since this will also be like a dispedida for both James and Francis before they will go to Singapore.

The gathering place was on Francis Moreno's boarding house and some just went directly to the port since they could not make it on time. Both Ron and James arrive in the port just in last minute before the departure. Ron came together with her fiance and James together with his family (wife and 2 kids).

When we were sailing in the seas my friends fell as sleep as I was just listening to some music on my iPod. Since my insomnia was at it's peek I was not able to sleep until we arrive at Bato Leyte. The cool breeze of air welcome us and the sound of tricycle from my uncle was waiting. After we departed the boat we took time to get necessary foods and things in the near by market and going to our destination. As we were approaching my home town I decided told my uncle to stop over my fathers house so that I can greet him and also to borrow some kitchen utensils.

It's nearly 5 years when my last visit of my home town and still little changes I have noticed. Tall tress and green rice fields still captured my seen. The big cross at the back of my fathers house was still there and it was repainted. My little cousins also greeted me and some of my few relatives who were shocked seeing my unexpected.

We arrive at the rest house exactly 9 a.m and took manners in preparing for breakfast and arranging our belongings in the dorm. While others where busy playing dota and also cooking for lunch. Some even took a bath already in the sea since the tide was high. After lunch the group decided to go the canigao island and we were fetch via boat.

As we were approaching to the island I could see that the place was starting to be developed and getting crowded. Well it's summer and a lot of people preferably know now the place. A lot of changes I noticed on the island and among of them is that cottages were everywhere and also a watch tower were made for life guards to monitor the people. There is now an entrance both were in you will pay entrance fee for Php 10.00 per head.

As we find our spot and place to settle down since the front part of the island was merely crowded and full of people. We decided to take a walk going to the other side of the island which was just a couple of walk from the sea shore. As I roam my eyes seeing the changes that was implemented in the island. I can see how people tend to forget how to take care of nature and how to preserve it. I saw that the middle part of the island going to the light tower was now cleaned up. And all those trees and bushes were removed.

As we continue to walk in the shore line I also noticed that roap's were used as boundaries in the coastal area. This signifies that if a swimmer went out of that area he/she will be in trouble since the island is full of strong water currents. Currents that could drive you away to a far area in a matter of seconds. It's clear enough that those roap's act as precaution's to those swimmers.

After 5 years I can feel again the fine sand and watch the green and blue water of the island. I missed this feeling way back when. Were in you could just watch how nature tend to erase your problems and grunges. The sea breeze was perfect were it soothes your skin the moment it hits you. Yet there were some things that I as a bit disappointed like no proper maintenance of the island. Garbage and other stuffs that can trigger the destruction of the place were there. Some were dangerously walking in the sanctuary and some were also getting sea clamps. Which is not prohibited because it's a sanctuary place.

I used to sit down in this sea shore and let the waves hit my feet. As I could take a wide look of the long site in front of me. And listen to the deafening silence. I can just recall that only bird tweets and sea shore waves were the most dominant sound I can hear. And this was also the place were my grand father take a break after long hours of fishing or seek shelter when a storm nor typhoon hits them while fishing. It's kind of a different island now. Compared five years or even long time ago were sea snake, birds and sea turtles are only the visitors of the island.

This will be a big challenge for the mayor on how he will maintain and propagate the place that capture my childhood. This was one of the places that acted my motivation to learn how to swim since when I was a child my father or uncle would dare my to learn how to swim so that I can go along with them in fishing. And They would not let me come together with them because I don't know how to swim.

After a walk we finally settled down a sport were we set up a tent for our belongings and start to indulge the sea. We tried to enjoy every part and every minute we could since we decided not to have an overnight in the island for security and food purposes. We would go back to the rest house for dinner. As a storm was approaching we could just see the dark skies in front of the island.

We decided to roam around and have a tour of the island. We managed to went around the island going to the sanctuary place. We stop at the back of the island waiting for a sunset and also had fun with little fish jumping in the shore line. Clear water like the river what entertained us at the back of the island. But thick clouds covered the sun and we did not get a chance for a sunset in the island.

When we got back in the rest house we ate dinner. And after a while others felt tired and went to sleep. While others decided to sit for a while and have a drink and talk about jokes and nonsense things.

The Spratly Islands

It has been of great concerns lately about the dispute within several nations claiming the said to be oil-rich islands of spratly located at the South China Sea. Taiwan, Brunei, Malaysia, Vietnam, Philippines and China are continuously debating and exchanging warning words to each other that they should get away from the islands because one of those countries are claiming the islands. China and Philippines in particular are in hot tension on to whom the islands should be under. China warned US to not interfere with the dispute between Philippines which is a known US ally country, this was after Washington announced that they are ready to play any role to resolve the conflict peacefully.

Spratly islands are a group of nine small islands - which is currently occupied by the Philippine military troops and several civilians - are said to be rich in minerals and oils. This dispute has been happening long time ago and it has just emerged again recently after Vietnam and Philippines separately warned China about exploring in their territorial waters, which in return China fired back that it is their waters and no other else.

The 10-members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations conducted a meeting in Bali to discuss the incident about the conflicting countries regarding the claim of the Spratly Islands. China, during the meeting, revealed that they are getting ready to create guidelines for the behaviors in the said islands. Philippines on the other hand, is planning to take China to the U.N. tribunal that handles maritime border disputes upon hearing what China is planning to do.

Amidst all the troubles in the mentioned group of islands, Filipinos residing in the area are hoping that someday they will gain enough people to come visit the islands and is thinking about working a solution for it. The islands has no Internet connections, cars, shopping malls and the Mayor of the islands are planning to take actions to cater these holes to lure more people in. This is due to the fact that Philippine lawmakers believe that sustainable livelihood in fishing and tourism would become great arguments for the Philippines in its territorial claim in the Spratly Islands.

Cebu - City of Culture

Recently, the city of Cebu was recognized as the first city to be ever given the title of “City of Culture” by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). This prestigious recognition was given to the city due to its rich heritage and culture. Upon the recognition, local government organizations planned to create a yearlong activities that will address and give credit to the said award. Government officials said that the activities would include lectures about Cebu’s history, artistic and literary forums, culture and heritage discussions and many more.

Promoting art and culture through its cities is the goal of the ASEAN upon giving the award as City of Culture to Cebu. The organization hope to encourage other cities too in participating with the said program and hope to strengthen the bonds between countries within the ASEAN nations.

Negros Earthquake

An earthquake occurred this early morning(Tuesday, July 12, 2011) at 4am while everyone was sleeping in the Philippines. It was estimated to have a magnitude of 6.4 and is said to have occurred its epicenter in Negros, Philippines.

No reports of serious injuries and casualties have been established and it is expected to go in a couple of hours from now. I do hope that nothing serious really happened near the epicenter of the earthquake.

Right here in Cebu, Philippines, there hasn't been that great feeling of the earthquake other than those employees who are working night shifts. And it is safe to say that nobody was hurt during the incident here in Cebu.

God Bless us all.

Perfect Web Hosting

I have been looking for service that offers the best web hosting in the internet for my website. It took me about a month to research about leading hosting company that would give me the perfect specifications that I am looking for. There were numerous hosting company that captured my attention and there those who were not so attractive to me too.

I am looking for a web hosting company that particularly offers me the freedom of colocation hosting. Colocation gives you the flexibility to choose your desired hardware for your servers and in this way you would not have to worry about the pre specified hardware configurations, because you choose your configurations. On the other hand you are responsible for your chosen hardware specifications upkeep.

I am also very particular on managed hosting which lets me sit on my couch and relax while my web hosting company takes care of all the necessary updates, patches, and backup for my servers. In this way I can be worry free from anything that might happen to my servers at any given time because I know that some expert professionals is taking good care of my servers.

On all this, I have made my choice and I think it offered me the best option I can have. I am now ready to deploy my new website and so I start making the design and contents for it. So make your choice too and be patient in looking for the best web hosting around the internet.

Retirement Account

There is no doubt about the fact that we are getting older and we need to prepare ourselves for retirement. Getting a retirement account is the best option for us to be able to have enough money or funds when we are old and can no longer work.

Most of the companies that we are working offers many option regarding retirement accounts, you can ask your Human Resource department about it. There is a trending Individual Retirement Account (IRA) right now that soon will progress to become one of the most needed retirement accounts, it is the gold IRA. This process involves jewelry in gold instead of the usual cash or money. IRA gold is beneficial due to the fact that jewelry value keeps on increasing and is never out of the investment cycle. And by the time you are ready to retire from work, you will be able to spend what you have saved, your Gold. There is also gold IRA transfer to be able to transfer accounts from one to another account using your invested gold.

Company also offers 401k for their employees. This is also one of the many retirement investments for workers. And the good news, there is also gold 401k accounts that are ready for grab for those individuals that are interested in the investment.

401k investment is beneficial due to its “no-tax” rule. This is the same with 401k gold investments and it might be more beneficial when the time comes that you need to withdraw your account for your retirement.

So decide on which investment you are going to take for your retirement so that you may not find getting older a burden to your capabilities.
