     Looking back. I've walked along the memory lane and saw yesterday. È tempo di dire arrivederci. Esto passando.

     The day passes with the reminiscence of you. A smile towards the star lit skies and followed by a deep longing. All my love, all my trust...forever.

     When you loved me, my soul felt it. When you left me, my soul grieved.

     It takes guts, imagination, exposure and perhaps luck to start one's own business instead of looking for a quick income job. These are the the risks of an entrepreneur.

     Ti caadayom iti dennak ti nangpaasideg ti riknac para quenca. Nasursuroca nga impateg gapu iti rimat cadaguiti matam. Ta nasam-it nga isemmo ti nangparangpaya ti biagco nga mangrugin nga manglaylay. Gapu cadaguitoy, ibagak quenca nga ay-ayatenca unay. Awan capadam. - Written circa 1993.

     I watched the video Pirates of Silicon Valley, the story about Steve Jobs of Apple and Bill Gates of Microsoft. These two people are entrepreneurs who have the guts, imagination, exposure, and perhaps luck to start their own empire igniting a revolution in the light of information technology.

     Deep Blue Sea, another video I watched is a Jaws like movie but it illustrates a deeper meaning about man's exploitation of God's creation in solving man's problems.

     "And when I hiked up to the mountains, they were not different like the contours of your body. The scent of the breeze is like the scent you're wearing. The cascading falls are like your hair draped on your head like a queen. Nature's beauty is like a woman, that's why we call her Mother Nature."

     I pray for peace in the Southern Philippines.

     I bought a DVD machine with karaoke capabilities. It's a gift to myself. Don't tell me you can sing? Hahahahaha...you'll wake up the neighbors. You can crow but you can't croon. :)
