TOUCH - MOVE!!!

Touch - Move! The rule is, when you hold a piece at the chess board you must take a move and place it at any square possible - walang bawian ika nga. Same goes to our lives. Although theres a second chance, once we choose a path there is no turning back.

This misadventure actually started when i was unable to report for work for uncertain reasons. Then when i came back, my world collapsed bit by bit. Sa pagkakaalala ko, I asked a workmate yesterday for my plotted schedule this week - it was a 4am to 1pm shift. Geez closing pa rin!!! Pero oks lng dahil sanay na. Mejo excited nga ako at kinakabahan kaninang madaling araw pagkagising ko bago pumasok because hindi ko alam kung paano ko haharapin ang aking superiors at kung anong sasabihin ko sa kanila to save my ass! Anyway I made sure na maaga akong makakaalis ng bahay para di ako late na makarating dahil mas badtrip kapag naging ganoon ang sitwasyon. Ehehehe..

I took a mejo patok na jeepney ride along with the early birds - yung iba papuntang palengke dala ang kanilang mga paninda at ilang bayong and yung iba'y mukang papasok din sa napakaagang trabaho. It was the usual day at habang binabaybay ng sasakyan ang kahabaan ng highway ay mejo hindi ako mapakali sa mga sermong maaari kong marinig mamaya sa office.

Finally there i was at my destination and twas like the phase of time was a bit slower. Also my heart was pounding unstable while i was walking through the stairway papuntang entrance. Inside, i went to the locker room to get my headset and my water bottle then i  immediately headed to the restroom to ensure i will be a bit presentable kung sasabunin man ako sa loob ng call floor. tsk! Paglabas ng restroom ay dali-dali akong nagpunta sa glass door entrance papasok ng office. Toot toot! After the alarm for my door access i heard someone calling my name. Buong name ko actually - and thats unusual because they call me by my nickname. Geez! Twas my new Team Leader behind and was holding a cup of coffee. I was breathless that moment until she asked if ano na ang nangyayari saken.. But I was speechless.

I was even more surprised when she look at my headset and said na di ako pwede magtake ng calls today dahil she tagged me as AWOL sa command center and then she gave me my options. I apologized  for what i did but i didnt know why i decided so quickly and mentioned that i might or will be resigning and leaving the company. Damn! Did I made the right move or did i just made another senseless act? With no questions asked, she preceded and spoke to our head about my situation and it was official. Now all i have to do is to submit my resignation letter to make the deal professional.

It was a really bad experience for me this day that i made the wrong move and im thinking na bawiin ko yung mga sinasabi ko but i need to stand on my decisions. Touch - Move and Checkmate na nga! Eventhough i consulted my team mates and some co-workers and close heads, although theyre sad about it since theyre expecting more of me - the decision was quite unanimous (parang boxing lang). Its better to leave now and look for a new rather than wait for 30 days more para ibalik ako sa work. Well accdg to them the chances are not that big enough - besides Xmas is near and dapat may income ako when it strikes. :'(

2012: THAT'S 3 YEARS TO GO..

Mark your calendars guys and be prepared! The 2012 is only about 3 years from now.  tsk3! But the big question is if the mass destruction depicted in this film will occur or if its merely fictional.

Though im puzzled, i still dont want to close my doors of believing of what other people foresee in the near future. Malay naten or baka nga.. Ewan! Pero sabi ng ilan nakaukit na yan sa bato at nasa kasulatan na din daw ang magiging tadhana ng mundo. *Basa - pahina 20 chapter 12. lol. But seriously, accdg to scholars, the 2012 phenomenon was based primarily on the Mayan Calendar which claims that the world will undergo a transition and a massive transformation which will be in effect on December 21 or 23 of 2012 - di pa pinaabot ang Xmas. Hence, it will be the start of an apocalypse. whoah! (thats scary..)

Now lets talk about the film.. The story started on 2009 when  scientists found a big solar flare erupted at the sun. Along with that, an Indian scientist - Satnam, who was based in a deep copper mine also discovered that the earth's core temperature was unstable and heats rapidly. Adrian (Chiwetel Ejiofor) - also a scientist, was invited to witness this and immediately headed back to the state to report this incident to his chief. Soon they went to the White House and discuss it to the president. By 2010, the American government along with the other head of the nations, aristocrats and multi-billionaires did a protocol and made it confidential to the public. In 2011, different artifacts and great works of art were preserved and had it replaced with replicas to keep it safe for the upcoming catastrophe.

By 2012, Jackson Curtis (John Cusack) - author of Farewell of Atlantis and divorced to his wife went for a limo ride with his kids for a camping trip at Yellowstone Park. From there they discovered that the lake and grounds were now off-limits until they were captured by some armed troops. They were relocated to a different camp site and met a bizarre man - Charlie. He was a radio jock stationed under his camper truck and spreads Mayan predictions. At first, Jackson denies all of Charlie's somehow crazy stories about the impending onslaught and the near end of the world cycle until a great earthquake shattered the state of California - then the whole world...

The next scenes were all heart pounding and jaw dropping. From car and plane chase.. Falling bridges and skyscrapers. Destruction of great world landmarks - everything! Their interpretation of having  the world devastated was completely superb. Come to think of it? In reality we already experienced some of these scenes (like the ashfall, volcanic eruptions, drought, tsunamis, earthquakes) but still, the authority assures of our safety. WTF! Pero paano kung umaabot na tayo sa ganung sitwasyon?!  Do they have plans or even, are we all prepared?! Onga nmn. Well, going back to the film, it ended like one of the stories in the Bible - The Noah's Ark. Vast waters covered most of the world  and even reached the highest peak - Mt. Everest. It was year 0001 and soon the water recedes and the earth's crust shifted and collided til it created a new land. It was like a new world.. A new beginning.. A new cycle.

Lets all just be prepared because we were all warned. Theres still a time for a change but nonetheless we can all stand a chance. Though i was pissed off for paying a good seat to watch this movie but ended choosing to stand up along with the crowd or go downstairs sa deluxe - One time screening pa! Pero ayos lng nkita ko nmn some of my androidz berx sa baba having the same situation. At least we were all seated. Yun nga lng sumakit ang leeg namin kakatingala sa malapit at napakalaking white screen. hehe. XD

FRIDAY THE 13TH: GOOD OR BAD LUCK?

I admit, that everytime it turns Friday the 13th i became more cautious. Why? Coz a part of myself fear of the dangers and lil horrors that i may encounter. Buti na lng and so far (parang redundant), i never had a chance to experience any tragic moments.

But believe it or not this was a good and a bad day for me for a lot of reasons. First, a day before 13 strikes our cute white pup died - Si Kulas (wataneym) he loss his appetite and got fleas. tsk3! Second, until now my 2yr old smartphone malfunctioned and i cant seem to let it work so i will have it checked by a technician maybe by tom - good thing i have a spare handset. whew! Third, forced evicted na si Tom sa PBB house dahil he lost his temper after losing the PBB Big Battle. haha. (anong kinalaman nun?) fanatic lng cguro aq ng dos. lolz. Tapos, Third, i think im gonna lose my job (fingers-crossed). I havent reported to my superiors for a while and explain my situation for my truancy. I honestly dunno what to say. Sana payagan pa nila ko bumalik by next week or else i'll be looking for a new job soon - Mhirap ata magstart from scratch.. And if i fail, i maybe spending my xmas and new year - Bankrupt. Argh!

However going to the lighter side there were also some good stories to share.. One, sweldo na!!! and may bonus ulet ako. Pero gastos na nmn. hehe.. Two, level 9 nako sa Fishville (fb app) so now i can buy and sell some clownfish and other stuff. lolz. Isip bata! Then third, Globe called and offered me a reservation for an Apple 3g S handset. Thats a very good news but the bad thing is if how will i pay for that expensive gadget. Pwede ba free?! or next year installment. Ahaha.

Anyway, whether we choose to believe this superstition or not - Our life and luck will depends on how we choose and decide. It maybe coincidental but we cant deny the fact that Friday the 13th may soon again strikes. Its always posted at the calendar and thats a date! >: D


Psst. Do you have the some Friday the 13th stories to share? Post and share it at my comments page..

BOY OH BOY.. ASTROBOY!!! - 鉄腕アトム

Astroboy - 鉄腕アトム or Mighty Atom is one of my favorite Japanese anime robot of all time! It was first published in 1952 as a manga and was first aired in Japan in 1963. Whew! Ang tanda na pla niya pero "boy" pa rin. Hehe. Parang kailan lng, it was a manga then nabroadcast as tv series, then hit game consoles and collectibles and now its on big screens..

The story is all about the adventures of a humanoid named Astroboy with some other cool characters and set in an advance time of Metro City. It began from a grief scene when Toby (Astro) mysteriously disappeared after a sudden attack of an experiment - The Peacemaker due to a malfunction. Dr. Tenma who's a great scientist and  head of The Ministry of Science eluded the fact of the lost of his only son due to the tragedy. So he meticulously crafted a one of a kind robot and with the help of Dr. Elefun and his blue core artifact, they were able to create and made life to a humanoid having the memories of Toby. However from day to day it made Dr. Tenma  observed and realized that the presence of his real son cant be replaced by anyone or anykind.

Soon Toby discovered that he was just no ordinary boy but was actually a robot equipped with great ammo and other cool stuff.  He learned that though he's unique, he had someplace somewhere in the world - as a superhero always ready for an action for the good sake of Metro City and mankind. naks nman! Mejo bitin ang story pero ayos lng. But i hope theres a sequel and im thinking of more battle-scenes.

Now i am looking forward to watch these three next attractions. The Avatar by renowned Director James Cameron which will hit on Dec. 18, 2009 worldwide. The Avatar: The Last Airbender Aang of Nickelodeon by Summer of 2010 and the 2012 by November Friday the 13th. :-D
