Balitang Pampalakasan

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 11:27:00 +0000

Dumako naman tayo sa balitang pampalakasan........

Empleyado 1: Paanong nakapasok dito yan, eh hindi naman pumasa sa written exam?
Empleyado 2: Pinasok ni Ma'am. Me reklamo ka?
Empleyado 1: Wala. Ikaw, meron?
Empleyado 2: Wala din.

In Denial

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 13:27:00 +0000

Siguro pinipilit ko lang din talagang pagtagalin na sumulat. Baka nga ito yung sinasabing "In Denial" stage; na tipong alam mong nangyari na, pero ayaw sumunod ng isip, puso at katawan mo sa dapat mong gawin dahil ayaw mong tanggaping nangyari na nga.

Pero pangako, susulat ako ng tungkol sa'yo, Dade.

Doon Po Sa Amin

"Pwedeng pwede ka", sabi nila. "Mamalagi ka lang ng ilang taon dito at magpakilala sa tao, siguradong mananalo ka".

Masarap sanang laruin sa utak na pwedeng pwede kang makatulong para mabago ang imahe ng bayang nasa dulo ng lalawigan, ngunit kung maiisip mong madumi ang takbo ng pulitika sa napakaliit na bayang ito; kung malalaman mong marami ang nabibingit sa hukay dahil nais silang pigilan nang mga taong nais maghari sa pamayanan; gugustuhin mo pa nga bang maglingkod?

Days of Summer

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Sat, 23 Feb 2013 03:23:00 +0000

How do you make a Summer Camp different from the previous?

Have been attending the yearly summer camp for at least 15 years now, and now it rests upon our shoulders to stir up the crowd and make this a life-changing experience.

Blank for now :(

Coffee and Tea

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 08:34:00 +0000

They sit there, face to face, two friends staring, waiting for each other to probably pop up some questions that could somehow define the next course of their lives. He takes a sip from his cup of coffee; she glances by the hot steam that billows out of her tea.

She asks, "how do you see it in 20 years time"? His answer, non-commital, was, "probably just the same as now". Though expected, it comes as a hint that probably there wouldn't be a future between the two of them.

They stood up, two friends, and started walking side by side as if nothing that they talked about has, or will make a difference in their relationship.

They promised to see each other, being the best of friends that they are.

And then, it was goodbye.

Muli

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Tue, 29 Jan 2013 14:48:00 +0000

158 noong 2009.
61 noong 2010.
31 noong 2011.
Hanggang naging 8 na lang noong 2012.

Hinangad kong makapagpahayag ng kuru-kuro sa malayang pamamahayag, kung kaya nga naipanganak sa blogsphere ang Siyetehan. Sa simula ay marahas, aktibo, namumutiktik sa dami ng artikulong gustong lumabas sa utak, gustong isulat; ngunit kagaya rin ng ibang bagay, unti-unting nalalaos, naluluma, at napapag-iwanan ng panahon.

Nauubos nga ba ang hangaring magsulat? Nawawala nga ba ang pasyon na humabi ng salita at makapagpahayag ng saloobin upang guminhawa ang damdamin?

Wari'y may isang maliit na baga ng apoy na muling nahanginan at nagbabadya ng muling pagkamulat upang muling magsulat.

Susubukan kong muli.

Dolphy, RIP

Twitter is abuzz as there are now tweet reports circulating that the King of Comedy, Rodolfo Vera Quizon, Sr., more popularly known as Dolphy, has died.

Need to confirm if this is true.

Hamlet

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Tue, 05 Jun 2012 02:35:00 +0000

Decisions, decisions.

To be or not to be.
To pursue or not to pursue.

Until then, decisions will have to be made.

Soon.

Why?

People come passing by three floors down never realizing what might have been happening three floors up.

Never Will Be

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Mon, 05 Mar 2012 11:29:00 +0000

She's the topnotch junior staff; and the only thing that matters is when she will finally move up to that high level managerial position.

On the other, he's that "it" staff from the other department-the humble, unassuming guy who works his best, and consistently gets recognition from the ins and outs of the company.

They're miles apart in terms of work functions, yet somehow, they would eventually forge an unlikely friendship for the simple reason that their high intellect minds meet at a certain level; a meeting that would transcend even beyond the intricacies of work.

They could somehow be a perfect pair, only but for one reason.

She's married.

Sinking

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Fri, 24 Feb 2012 09:35:00 +0000

It's that sinking feeling knowing it wouldn't be there anymore.

Oftentimes, goodbyes are painful.

Mayweather-Pacquiao Fight in May 2012

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 03:39:00 +0000

Floyd Mayweather Jr. taunts anew Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao in his twitter, saying, "Manny Pacquiao I'm calling you out let's fight May 5th and give the world what they want to see".

Previous negotiations for this much-awaited boxing fight between Pacquiao and Mayweather have gone off following Mayweather's extraordinary conditions (blood test mesures, profit sharing, etc.).

It has become pretty annoying for Pretty Boy Floyd to once again bad-mouth and belittle the Pacman in his press releases, and so it is but rightful for us Filipinos to retaliate with his latest twitter challenge.

Let all Filipinos and boxing fans say, "Whatever, Floyd. Whatever!"

Jinkee Pacquiao: Enhanced Magazine Cover Photo

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 18:50:00 +0000

I mean, what's wrong if Jinkee Pacquiao's photo in a Mega Magazine's January issue cover has been enhanced?

Don't we all want to look good in public?

College Student 1: Si Diana na lang ligawan mo. Naglalaway ka kaya 'dun!
College Student 2: Si Diana? Hindi naman nagre-reply yun pag tine-text ko.
College Student 3: Ay, pag hindi nagre-reply, wala kang pag-asa dun.
College Student 2: Si Karen na lang. At least, kahit di ko itext yun, nagte-text sa akin.
College Student 1: Yun, pwede na yun! Maganda rin naman si Karen.

Dear Mr. President

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 06:38:00 +0000

Dear Mr. President,

I am writing as a citizen of this country. No, you don't know me, Sir, and neither do many of our contrymen recognize me because I'm just this ordinary Filipino citizen who does an ordinary work and lives an ordinary life.

I am writing, even though I didn't vote for you (and I don't deny to anyone that I voted for an unpopular candidate), because the moment you won in the elections and took that mandate of leading this country, you became my president and I became your constituent.

Mr. President, one and a half year has passed since you assumed office. One and a half year has also passed but all I saw in my limited mind was how the government has been turned into a big prosecutor's office whose main priority is to file charges and find fault against our former president. And while there is nothing wrong with running after her misdeeds, it seems that the more pressing issues on poverty and economic development has been grossly neglected.

While some intelectual groups may argue that doing business has become better in the Philippines because corruption has lessen, the ordinary people don't care about it.

The ordinary people's simple concrens are higher salaries and lower costs of living.

Unfortunately, Mr. President, to my humble knowledge, no salary increases has been given since your term. Instead, what we have experienced are the continuous increase in oil prices, toll increase, electricity power rate hike, and a lot more increases in the common tao's daily expenses.

We carry on like this for the rest of your term, and we will see more people migrating and working abroad. We carry on like this and we will see more people getting poorer and hungrier.

But four and a half more years are still ahead. That is, to say, there is still time for change.

Mr. President, your people are waiting.

It is your time. Now is it.

I Miss Writing And I Mean It

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 09:29:00 +0000

I miss writing and I mean it.

I have been into a very great ordeal lately, and sadly, this has caused me to neglect my passion. But fear not, my dear passion. The time is coming and it is near.

We shall meet again.

Soon.

Shamcey Supsup Wins

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 15:12:00 +0000

Make no mistake about it.

The Miss Universe 2011 Coronation Night is scheduled tommorrow night. Our bet, Binibining Pilipinas Universe Shamcey Supsup, they say, has a very good chance of winning; but whether she gets the coveted crown or not, she is definitely already a winner.

Let her come home a week or two after the event:

• and a lot of television talk shows will definitely book her for an interview.

• and ABS-CBN, GMA 7, and now, Manny Pangilinan's ABC 5 will surely entice her to join their bandwagon of talents.

• and funnyman Vic Sotto will definitely consider her to be his leading lady for the upcoming Enteng Kabisote series.

• and Willie or Manny will offer her to become co-host in their respective game shows.

• plus loads of commercial endorsements for a shampoo or a soap or whatever beauty care product.

Indeed, we are a country where entertainment, sports, fashion and politics are intertwined together, you wouldn't know which is black or which is white.

A Bachelor For A President

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 12:16:00 +0000

A whole loads of problems that the Philippines encounters at the moment, and what we see in the Yahoo headlines are two separate news stories about the President's love affairs.

Ikaw na!

Ikaw na ang maging binatang presidente!

It's a pity I don't have the option but to put this Parking Sign for now.

I'll be back and write but for now........

I'm sorry.

Earthquake Hits Luzon

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 22:32:00 +0000

Many of us may not have noticed, but a magnitude 5.9 earthquake has hit Luzon at past 1 am today, July 26, 2011.

The center, according to Phivolcs, was at 21 Kilometers soutwest of Iba, Zambales.

Aftershocks were also reported in nearby provinces in Pampanga, Nueva Ecija, including Metro Manila and the Greater Manila Area (GMA).

Manny Many Prizes, Manny Many Absents

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Tue, 19 Jul 2011 09:52:00 +0000

Is Sarangani Representative Manny Pacquiao giving a disservice to his constituents?

Let's do the math.

In a recent record gathered from the Congress of the Philippines, Pacquiao placed 4th among congressmen with the most number of absences in the 15th Congress. Pacquiao had 26 absences out of the 70 regular sessions. (The list also revealed that Ang Galing Party-list Representative Mikey Arroyo has the most number of absences with 32-but that's another story).

It may be perceived that Pacquiao may have been absent due to his training for his bouts abroad (the latest with Mosley). However, it must also be noticed that aside from defending his boxing titles, Pacquiao is also busy with his commitments in showbiz.

Just last Saturday, July 16, Manny Pacquiao spearheaded GMA's newest Game Show entitled Manny Many Prizes where it is perceived by many that this must be GMA Network's shot to rival ABC 5 controversial host Willie Revillame's game show.

----------------------

Being your area's Representative in Congress doesn't only mean you distribute goods and do projects for your constituents. As the term implies, a Congressman should represent his domain on issues and discussion in Congress.

Catch Me If You Can

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Tue, 05 Jul 2011 03:56:00 +0000

It's now a year since Noynoy Aquino resumed office as President of the Republic, and so far, the most significant accomplishment he made is to run after the misdeeds of former president Gloria Arroyo and her administration.

This is the same sentiment shared by ex-budget secretary Benjamin Diokno who said that PNOY's “Daang Matuwid” campaign has made him too concerned about cleaning up after the previous administration that he ends up not doing enough to improve the economy.

Though the battlecry of Noy's electoral campaign in 2010 is actually to minimize corruption in the Philippines (kung walang corrupt, walang mahirap), I hope that the President will still heed to the other side of governance, which is to ensure that his constituents will be taken cared of, specifically with their basic needs.

It is really quite appalling to note that within a year of his administration, we have witnessed how the cost of living has significantly increased. What's more, PNOY can only say that he is not in control of the rising prices in basic commodities.

Mr. President, there is really nothing wrong with running after the previous administration. But there should be specific government agencies whom you can direct to run after the misdeeds of the previous organization. You have already impressed among the people of your seriousness in battling graft and corruption.

It is about time that the Filipino people witness a President who shows concern, not only on things of the past, but on things that matter more to the common filipino- jobs, education, health, peace and order.

Preaching Freedom

noreply@blogger.com (siyetehan) — Mon, 13 Jun 2011 09:32:00 +0000

At the start of Jesus’ ministry on earth, he proclaimed His mission by reading the scripture: “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because He has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor (Luke 4:18-19).”

The same way today, as God’s disciples, we are given that powerful anointing to proclaim that the time has now come to receive the favor of the Lord. Armed with the truth of the Gospel, we can go and share the message of God’s goodness to the poor, proclaim freedom and liberty to those who are imprisoned by sin and poverty, preach the healing power of Christ, and tell everyone about the faithfulness of our God.

The harvest is ready, and they are indeed, plenty. Let us use our anointing to reach out and take part of the Grand Harvest of Souls.

Now is the time.
