Logan Circle, isang romantikong lugar sa Philadelphia. Me mga gripong bumubuhos nang pataas. Mahilig ang mga mag-syotang mamasyal here. Parang Luneta. Especially in the spring and summer. Maganda sya pagka-gabi. Maraming guapong nag-lilipana dito.

Like this one guy…

Proud to be an American! Happy July 4th!

04 July 2008

reynaelenareadership981x.JPG

82% of Reyna readers are from the Philippines. Only 10% of which are from the United States and the rest are from all over the world. And so, to all my Pinoy readers back home, pagpasensyahan nyo na ho ang pag-eemote nang lola nyo and you might not be able to relate to me, but I hope you won’t be offended, if today, I celebrate my being an American. Dahil ang hindi raw marunong lumingon sa pinanggalingan ay nadadapa, nabubungi at nagiging baklang panot na syokoy.

Pucha! Hmpt! Na-aa-ninag nyo?

How do you social climb sa mga art museums?

02 July 2008

Pssst! Koyah! Ateh! Pano pag ang kursunada mo eh mahilig sa arts (not crafts kasi baka witch and gaga!). Tuturuan kita. Alam nyo, kahit laki ako sa Barrio Siete, mahilig na talaga ako sa culture and arts. Kaya malimit akong pumunta nang Folk Arts at Cultural Center. Sa Folk Arts, dun sa likod. Malapit sa dagat. Pagka gabi? Iba’t ibang istatwang ma-aarte ang makikita mo. Walang sinabi ang wax museum ni Madame Tussaud sa Amsterdam. Pati Cultural Center of the Philippines, binibisita ko. Gaga! Dun lang sa labas! Marami ding istatwa dyan sa grounds pag bandang alas dos na nang umaga.

Philadelphia naman, has a lot of museums mga kabisyo. Ang kahabaan alone nang Benjamin Franklin in Philly is tadtad nang art museums. Napuntahan ko na yong iba. Yong me mga kahuyan lang sa likod. Pero pag naswerte napunta ako sa loob nang art museum, I act like one classy, sophisticated art conio-zur. Kaya, I’m here to teach you the fine ethics and etikets in visiting art museums.

Forget about all the maligno that resides in Folk Arts, dahil mga asensado na kayo, you all need to behave properly pag napunta kayo nang museum. Proper decoroum, classy catwalk at wag kang hahagikhik pag me nakita kang dose pulgadas sa painting. My advice sa pagsocial climb sa art museums? Hay naku! Napaka-simpli. Gayahin nyo ang ginagawa nang lola! You fake it! Hahahaha! Ok, gurl?!! Fake the damn thing! Hahaha!

Let me show you my techniques mga kunichiwa!

Officially unemployed

01 July 2008

Today is Tuesday, July 1, 2008. I am now officially unemployed. But before I left my boss from hell, I emailed everybody that I was leaving.

byebyebyeparty1.JPG

Yan si Badia. Tiga-Morocco. Nilayasan na rin nya ang work niya. Lahat nang development projects nya, hawak ko. And she’s been very helpful at talagang nag-depend din ako sa kanya. This was during the bye bye party na binigay nang Development Division.

So, nag email nga ako to everyone sa trabaho. Yung lang who I work with and deal with on a pretty regular basis. As in, inisa-isa ko. I was suprised sa haba nang listahan. Wala pa dun yong mga na-unang nag-silayasan at nag-resign na. I didn’t realize that I deal with a lot of people actually. Drama ko yong Friday 5pm ko i-send para bubulaga sa kanila nang Monday. Cheezemaks ang lola nyo. At shock sila. Nagkagulo nga. Let me give you some bits and pieces nang mga pinadala nila. Besides, remembrance ko na rin to. Divanetch?

How to be one great ispiritista

29 June 2008

Balik tayo sa Social Climbing Lessons mga kabisyoooo!!! As I’m sure you party all the time! You go to nice bars! You’re dressed very 1st world in a turd world kawntri and all you order is ………. ta-dannnggg! “Margarita, please!” Huh?! Hallerrr!!! Whenever I am in some swanky bar in Makati or The Fort at naririnig ko na ang order eh mga ganetch? Mga konyoooooooo!!! Social climbersss!!! Hahahaha! That’s why people order beers. Why? It’s the safest choice. Agree?!

I love beers. My favorite? San Mig Light, Heineken and Pilsner Urquell. But I stay away from beer because I get pregnant in no time at all, kahit na wala namang humalay saken. So, I stick to mixed-drinks. Syoktong on a lambanog mixed with red bull topped by avocado. Ganun. Don’t try it. An sagwa nang lasa. Pramis.

Is it time to quit your job?

28 June 2008

I’m not looking for somebody na gawin ang ginawa ko noh? Hahaha! Sabi nga, “Don’t try this at home!” Pero, if you are in some funky situation sa trabaho na iritang irita ka na to the maximum leveleyshus, wez, maybe these 10 questions will help you find out whether it’s time to hit the road.

Lahat naman tayo had our moments in time. Either demonyo ang boss mo, or demonyo ang mga officemate mo or hayop ever ang assignments at work mo and at one time or another, you ended a tough day at work thinking: “I should be doing something else.” Pero, how do you know kung ang feeling na yan is serious enough to be trulala?

Here’s an exit examination to help you figure out kung talagang nakapako ka na sa trabaho mo and you can no longer divorce yourself sa kwadradong mukha nang boss mong si Doreen. Either you were meant to stick together nang Doreen sa buhay mo or part ways bago kayo mag-sapakan, mag-kalmutan at mag-sabunutan.

Now, of course me mga exception to the rule, that is, unless you have kids that you send to school, me kabit kang tinu-tustusan ang pag-sa-shopping, or that ang mahal nang mga ka-artehan mo and some other serious responsibilities which by then am sure lulunukin mo na lang ang situation divanetch?

Now, get a piece of lapis ang papel, answer mo netch kani-ang questions diri ug find out nimo what your answers mean for your current career situation. For each question except dun sa last, Yes earns 1 point and No earns 0. For the last question, Yes earns 0 and No earns 1.

READY?

Why would you lie where you went to college?

27 June 2008

As some of you know by now, I finished my undergrad sa Barrio City in Bikol, where I made very good friends with sa mga kasamahan ko sa school achaka almost everyone sa school at group namen eh kebigan ko talaga. Pokpok na talaga ako kahit na nong panahon pa. And i’ve maintained that relationship for all these years mga kabisyo. It’s important eh. Sabi nga nung isang website, “relationship matters”.

One day, isang araw nung umuwi ako in Manila, chika ulit kami nang mga friends ko who are now the who’s who sa Manila ngayon. Some of them hold this and that position, both in private and public companies. I got the chance to talk to one of them na cute nung panahon. Gwapo talaga sya nung college kami. First love ko sya noon. Ma-ere lang nga. Sila ata ang nag-imbento nang super-typhoons.

Kumusta ka na? Congratulations. Lawyer ka na pala. San ka nga pala nag-tapos?” Tanong ko habang lumalagok nang syoktong.

Manila grad ako“. Sagot nya.

Let compassion ripple outward: People of Iloilo needs our help

27 June 2008

I’m no Buddhist. But in their meditation, centered on compassion, it says:

Let compassion ripple outward

Feel warmth and love in your heart, think of all your friends, and feel yourself embracing them with your love and wishing them well. Then extend your love and warmth to people who protect you who don’t even know you - soldiers, volunteers, firefighters, police officers. Extend your love to them.

Then imagine people you haven’t met who have been hurt, who are suffering, and try to broaden your love to all these unknown people. People who lost their lives on MV Princess of the Stars. People who lost their houses and livelihood with Frank’s fury.

After all these years! Our moment to emote!

26 June 2008

I am soooo totally enamored with this new Journey’s hit song “After all these years!”. I have been playing this over and over for the second time around once more again and eygeyn forever and ever taz rewind uli! It’s awesome! It just brings back a whole lot of beautiful memories about what you did last summer no matter who you did it with, human or non-human, what you are, who you are, where you did it, who saw you, what they saw in you, what they did not see in you. And this song just absolutely encapsulates the past to remember. It’s one beautiful rendition by Arnel. Enjoy this one mga kabisyo! At least, this is my moment to emote. Wala eh, nilayasan ako lahat nang mga boylets ko! Hmpt! Anybody wants to apply?! Anybody? Anybody?

I am soooo angry! Just give me a penis right now!

25 June 2008

How else would you describe it?! Who will not get absolutely fired up angry when the truth about the whole damn thing is that Sulpicio Lines is nothing more than a sailing punerarya!!!

pic-06230909380593.jpg

What happened off the coast of Romblon is plain horrible!!!. Yet, this was not the first time it happened. Remember the worst ever ferry disaster in the world? It’s the collision of MV Dona Paz with MT Vector near Mindoro and Marinduque in 1987 where almost 4,000 people died. Will these people responsible for the navigational rules ever learn? I guess not. Just like any other shit and crap that happens in the Philippines.
