End of Vacation

Pasok na naman!
4 days na kasi akong bakasyon, 2 days off tapos 2 days leave.
OK naman ang, nakapagpahinga din, sarap magrelax, nood nood lang ng videos, laro at brose ng internet.

Tinapos ko lahat ng mga movie at anime na hindi ko natapos noon, isa na ung Death Note movie, pero medyo disappointed ako kasi hindi maganda casting at pagkakagawa. Ibang iba din sa original na anime. Mas maganda ung anime version para sa akin. Natapos ko din Sekirei, medyo ecchi na anime pero nakakatawa etc. Pero ang pinakamakabuluhan para sa akin ay ang anime film na "Princess Mononoke".

Princess Mononoke follows the journey of the last Emishi prince, Ashitaka, and his attempts to make peace between the human settlement, Tataraba (Irontown in the English adaptation), and the creatures living in the forest that surrounds it.

The film begins with Ashitaka saving his village from a vicious assault by killing a demon who is actually the giant boar god Nago corrupted by rage and hate. During the fight, Ashitaka receives a demon mark on his right arm, and he is cursed by the Boar God's hatred and pain. Ashitaka is told that the mark will spread throughout his body, killing him. A ball of iron is found inside Nago's corpse which is somehow connected to the curse. Ashitaka resolves to journey to Nago's origin, the lands to the West, to try and find a cure for his curse. He cuts his hair, signifying his permanent departure from his village, and rides out with his steed Yakul, his loyal red elk. Since it is considered taboo to see off one who is banished, only one person dares to say goodbye to Ashitaka: his 'little sister,' Kaya (according to Miyazaki, actually his bride-to-be; calling herself his 'little sister' was a term of affection), who gives him her crystal dagger so that he will not forget her.

On his journey, Ashitaka passes by a village suffering a samurai attack. Some samurai attack him, and Ashitaka fights back, decapitating one and shooting off the other's arms with the supernatural strength his curse grants him. In a nearby town he meets Jigo, a wandering monk impressed by his feats of arms; they encamp overnight near a ruined village, during which Jigo provides Ashitaka important information related to the source of his curse.

Irontown continually clears a nearby forest to get to more iron ore, causing many battles as the animals attempt to protect their diminishing forest. It was during one of these battles that Irontown's leader, Lady Eboshi Gozen, shot Nago. In another battle, a pack of wolves, led by the wolf god Moro and accompanied by San (whom the people of Irontown call, 'Princess Mononoke'), a human girl adopted by the wolves, attack villagers transporting rice. Ashitaka first encounters San treating Moro's wounds by a river, then finds several wounded villagers nearby. While taking them home, Ashitaka passes through a forest full of animal gods, including diminutive sprites called kodama. Also in the forest is the Shishigami (Forest Spirit in English), described as a "god of life and death", which takes the form of a deer during the day and a large shadowy "night-walker" at night.

Ashitaka is given a warm welcome in Irontown, but as he learns more about Eboshi's aggressive, destructive tactics, he is filled with rage (aided by his curse) and must restrain himself from killing her. He is dissuaded from doing so by lepers whom Eboshi has taken under her care and employed as gunmakers. She also runs her famous ironworks with ex-prostitutes.

Irontown is then attacked by San. Ashitaka intervenes to stop the two sides' fighting and takes San back to the forest, but is mortally wounded when he is shot through the chest by one of the villagers, whose husband had been killed by San, for trying to stop the fight between Eboshi and San. With his curse's power, he manages to open the gate and leave the town, but collapses soon after. With San's intervention, he is healed of his wounds — but not his curse — by the Forest Spirit.

San soon learns that the boars, under the leadership of the boar god Okkoto, are planning another attack on Irontown. Eboshi prepares for the assault and sets out to destroy the Forest Spirit. The head of the Forest Spirit is believed to grant immortality. Jigo, who is now revealed to be a mercenary-hunter, plans to give the head to the emperor; in return the emperor promises to give Irontown legal protection against the envious daimyos (in particular Lord Asano) coveting the town's prosperity. Eboshi, however, suspects (rightly) that the emperor's agents are also assigned to take control of Irontown at the most opportune moment. Meanwhile, Ashitaka recovers and falls in love with San, something she has difficulty accepting due to her lifelong hatred of other humans.

In the ensuing battle, Irontown successfully sets a trap for the boars, devastating their army. While Eboshi is away, Asano attacks Irontown, whose women resist the siege. Ashitaka runs from faction to faction, attempting to negotiate peace despite being mistrusted (and even attacked) by most of the characters. Jigo's hunters also succeed in corrupting Okkoto in the same way as Nago, and San becomes entangled in Okkoto's demonic tentacles. Moro, also badly wounded, saves San, and then is killed, along with Okkoto, by the Forest Spirit. Eboshi then succeeds in shooting off the Forest Spirit's head while it is transforming into the night-walker. Jigo collects the head while the body is transformed into a god of death; as a result the land becomes covered with a lethal black ooze that completely destroys all life and turns the land barren. Asano's men scatter before the ooze and the population of Irontown moves into the surrounding lake, leaving Irontown to destruction. Ashitaka and San manage to take the head from Jigo and by returning the head to the Forest Spirit, the land becomes green again. Ashitaka and San part, vowing to see each other occasionally while Ashitaka helps Irontown rebuild. Eboshi survives, albeit without an arm (thanks to a posthumous attack from Moro's head), and vows to rebuild Irontown along more harmonious lines.

After seeing this film, I realized, humans are so greedy, and very disrepectful. We don't really think about our future. Oo tama kailangan ng taong mabuhay, pero, hindi lang naman tayo ang may buhay sa mundo, hindi dahil tayo ang "superior" na nilalang sa mundo ay tayo na ang nagmamayari ng lahat. Nakakalungkot, pero alam ko hindi naman lahat ng tao ganoon, dapat maunawaan ng tao na mahalaga ang kalikasan, na sa pwede sila makatulong kahit sa simpleng paraan, hindi mo naman kailangang magtapos o magkaroon ng mataas na pinagaralan, as long as mayroon kang PUSO. kahit sa simpleng pagsegragate ng basura at pagtapon ng maayos o pagtatanim ng halaman, malaking bagay na iyon, even these small efforts count. Everyone should do their part. This is our planet, our mother. We should start to change ourselves, so the next generations will live a more clean, healthy and peaceful lives.

Buhay Callcenter

First day sa floor medyo nerbiyoso, madalas maraming nakakatawang nangyayari. Even sa training maraming nakakatawa, nakakahiya at kung ano anong katangahan na di maisip kung bakit mo nagawa?

I am a callcenter agent for more than a year now. Marami-rami na rin akong kapalpakang nagawa, na kapag naiisip ko e natatawa ako sa sarili ko. I remember, first callcenter job ko, napilitan lang akong magaplay, may kakikila kapatid ko sa HR kaya nirefer ako, no choice ako kundi sumipot kasi mapapahiya kapatid ko. Summer nun kagagaling lang sa outing sunog na sunog pa ang balat ko. Wala nang interview interview, exam agad, pasado naman, napunta ako sa ISP account. Gabi ang training namin.

Medyo aanga anga sa siyudad, di ko alam kung saan ako papasok, aling building, paano gumamit ng elevator? Buti na lang may nakita akong mukhang mga trainees din, kaya sinundan ko sila, kinaibigan, at mga ka wave ko pa pala! Buti may tropa na ako.

Masaya ang training, dami ko natututunan, puro about computer networking and internet ang pinagaaralan namin. Masaya, every last day ng week, magiinom, gagala, sa mall, bar, etc.

Pero nagsawa din ako, after 2 months umalis na din ako, hirap kasi, sa bus na ako natutulog, pagkauwi idlip saglit tapos pasok na ulet.

Then pahinga ako ng ilang mga buwan, aplay naman ulet ako. Wala talaga akong balak na magaplay pero inaya ako ni Andy, malapit kasi, sa bacoor lang. So sumama na lang ako, kesa walang ginagawa sa bahay. Interview, kaso sa unang exam pa lang bagsak na kami, ang totoo bara bara lang ang pagsagot ko, ayun pinabalik pa kami for retake after 2 weeks. Tinatamad na akong bumalik pero si kups makulet, so balik kami, kaso ako lang ang natanggap. Lungkot ko, hindi siya nakapasa.

Ngayon isang taon na ako dito, marami din akong natutunan, makukulet ang mga kasamahan ko kaya nagkakasundo kami, lalo na ang boss namin, parang si Joey de Leon di nauubusan ng kalokohan. "Andumi oh?" Ahaha. Marami na ring nagresign, dahil sa pagod, pressure, at naterminate dahil sa pumalya sa scorecard. Pero eto pa rin kami sa awa ng Diyos. Pero ung natitira nagbabalak na ring umalis, malamang by January ubos na kami, medyo alanganin din ang status ng account, kaya iba naghahanap na ng mas magandang company at mas malaki ang sahod. Madali na siguro magaplay kasi may experience na kami sa ganitong trabaho. Npagiisipan ko din magaplay sa iba, mas malaki kasi ang sahod, pero may kalayuan nga lang. Bahala na, basta tuloy pa rin ang plano ko.

Si theart callcenter agent na rin. Nice! Medyo nahihirapan daw siya pero sa una lang naman un, sabi ko sa kanya. Alam ko namang kayang kaya niya yun, medyo mahina lang kasi ang loob nya. Kaya minsan nagaalala ako.

Eto off ko ngayon, wala rin namang magawa di makagala kasi may pasok siya. Dito lang ako sa bahay pahinga na lang.

DoTA-LO!

mga katunggali(nakalimuta ko pangalang ng team, ehehe)
Warlock
Netherdrake
Lycantrophe

8:00PM kagabi sa netopia SM Bacoor naganap ang isang makasaysayang tunggalian ng mga natatange-ng mga koponan sa sa larong DoTA.

Single elimination, team Generals first game, TALO!

Badtrip d na ako nakatulog kasi may pasok pa ng 11pm muntik p kaming madisqualify kasi late ang isang teammate namin.

Haay..

First time kong sumali sa DoTA Tournament talo pa. Malas

Ganda ng lineup ng kalaban, ewan ko bakit nagsentinel pa kami. Pero maganda din naman ang character namin, may play din kami kaso mas experienced sa teamplay ang kalaban kaya talo. Wala kasi kaming praktis, first time namin maglaro ng magkakampi.

OK sana eh, lumakas din ang Lycan kaya focus fire kami sa kanya siya lagi ang target, kaso magaling magsupport ang mga kakampi, buhos lahat kay Troll skills, kaya mapatay man Lycan d din namin mapatay iba kasi sa golem ni Warlock at slow ni Viper.

Ang bilis nila magpush, buti nagbackdoor ako kung hindi hindi sana kami makakabasag ni isang tower. Nabasag ko ung first 3 towers.

Eto ang mali namin, ayon sa aking obserbasyon...

Di ko alam kung bakit ng Lothars pa si Troll, considering 3on3 madali sa kalaban makabili ng gem. Ok ung play namin, overgrowth, ff kay Lycan tapos patayin ang iba. Sayang di nabuo play, di ko nabuo Refresher Orb, saka hindi nag Black King Bar si Troll, di sana kayang kaya namin ubusin kalaban.

Isa pa masyado naming minaliit kalaban, kahit mga muka silang nerd, at sa totoo hindi sila kagalingan, kasi ambagal din nila makabuo ng gamit, at wala masyadong ginagawa Viper. Pero dinaan sa diskarte, teamwork.

Pero OK din medyo masama loob ko, pero at least kahit papaano naexperience ko sumali sa DoTA tournament. Sana tuloy ung random mode, para makalaro pa kami.

Eto kauuwi ko lang, nagaway kami ni theart, sumosobra na kasi bunganga ko kung ano ano na nasasabi ko. Sorry, pero ok na ka chat ko siya ngayon may pinapanood pa siyang video sa youtube, dragonball na kalokohan, kakatawa

Nakuha ko na din results ng medical tests, OK naman ang lahat, balik pa ako sa cardio, ano kayang mali sa akin?

May client sana ako sa Captcha Entry kaso nacancel ung project nya. Sayang. Hanap na lang ulet.

May uwi din akong SPAM galing sa katrabaho ko madami daw siyang supply galing abroad, "SPASM" daw sabi ni adi kaya pinagtatawanan namin siya. Ahahaha

Isang litrong iced tea na nauubos ko habang gumagawa ng post na to. Ihing ihi na ako kaya hanggang dito na langmuna.
