Hostage Drama, Suggesting Strategy

11 hours of hostage scene in the Philippines. Did the commanding officer spend timely to discern properly an on the spot training to be able to scrutinized strategy evading the bus? They wasted time thus ends wasting lives of foreigners. Where is their helicopters? How do they use helicopters it at night detecting rebels in probable areas in Mindanao? Don't waste your time. Did they think to use helicopters with their strategy on that scene? Why did the commanding officer was not able to think to use youtube or google it either and type THE SERBIAN SPECIAL FORCE. There it goes some planning and operating techniques for hostage crisis. Lastly I'm uncertain where are the authoritative officials during the crisis takes place?

Philippines on the 23th of August 2010

Went home around 8:30 PM, instead of unloading the grocery bag, I got paused hearing the news on television. What is happening to our country? A horrible almost 12 hour hostage crisis going on at Quirino Grandstand Manila.

I can't figure out how the police handled the scene. What strategy did the Police take during that situation? How did they suit their trainings during this situation? I think the Police failed to make a firm decision on that. As far as i can see they turned the situation into a bloody carnage.

How traumatic experience that was for those involved in the taking. I feel so devastated with the moves of the policeman.

Those tourists was trying to enjoy their tour and promote the Philippines. Without warning it turned out to be dreadful disaster. No travel in the Philippines as publicly proclaimed. Is this right to say?

Media earned for live telecast all over the world. But I think its not right to broadcast such as getting rid of our country. What image do we have now to other country? Media think. Poor Philippines hence on a bad image. It should not supposed to be aired. It triggered the hostage taker to succumb to despair. He was able to access the situation outside through the bus television. Thus the situation led on fire. He turned to psychotic animal and wasn't able to cope up with the pressure outside. 

What did the response of President Aquino to this crisis? I did not know any reaction of the Philippine President yet. Lemme read some about this thing.

So help us GOD, help the Philippines that this would not happened again. Bless us all.

Concrete Jungle- New York City

Empire State Of Mind
(Alicia Keys)

Grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes
Noise was always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean
If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say
Seeing my face in lights or my name on marquees found down on Broadway

Even if it ain’t all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby, I'm from New York
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New York!

On the avenue, there ain't never a curfew, ladies work so hard
Such a melting pot, on the corner selling rock, preachers pray to God
Hail a gypsy cab, takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge
Some will sleep tonight with a hunger far more than an empty fridge

I'm gonna make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby, I'm from New York
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York
These street will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New York!

One hand in the air for the big city,
Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty
No place in the world that can compare
Put your lighters in the air, everybody say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

In New York
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do

Now you're in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Now you're in New York!

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York
These street will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York!

Documenting the Best Things In Life

This was taken when my little boy is less than a year old. I looked at this photo like a Johnson Baby model is (Borgy). There he goes holding a tiny Johnson powder. At this age he was very clever. Now his four years old and more clever.
This innocent faced now in his childhood age.   

Think Thinking

Well my job is not heavy and draining one but it makes me think of looking for another job. Maybe for a higher pay, yes definitely. I'm thinking of getting  job on a local government with a relative of father side. I met him once in town and told me to visit his office.  Still thinking twice about it because I feel a tendency that i will be called one of the kamag anak chapter in the office. I believed with my the skills though, but then it does not hinder me to have negative thoughts.
I'm happy in a sense of structure with my current job but I'm still looking for a something financially stabled job.
Right at this moment I wanna learn to write well, I wanna be good in writing.
Someday I wanna be a lawyer, but that was a long term plans. Yes. I wanna be a lawyer to be able to share and let the poor understand their right as a citizen of the country.
I'm gonna sleep right now, eldest brother is going to use the net. I'm blogging for my 3rd entry tomorrow... Goodnight

Revolving Around the Institution

This is my 11th month with the office I'm into right now. All in all working with the academe for about three years. I went to one office to another until I was able to be a regular employee. First office was a bit pressured at work but I'm learning and I love it, I love the people around me. They are up headed level persons as I can see them. Second office was just less than a month. I worked with a guy friend on that office. It was December so I really enjoyed with the company I have. Third office was cool. My boss was cool and kind. She's a friend for keeps. Finally the office where I was able to have the benefits being an employee of the school is kinda tough. I learned to enjoy what I'm doing, I learned to be more responsible, and in the process of learning to be independent to organize an activity for the office functions.

Kid on the Block

A day before the exam of my little junior prep boy. I felt his laziness and does not want to draw attention with his lessons. I think he knows his lesson already and he does not want it repeating all over. As a mom I'm a bit nervous he might have a low score in the exams. I'm a bit alarming. The tuition of the university is on a slope. Good thing i get a discount since I'm an employee of the institution. But then I'm still paying much with the miscellaneous and books.
I guess I'll revised my strategy of teaching and reviewing his lessons. I should not be ungentle rather give an explanation and let him understand. Hope with this series of maneuvers will work out on him.

I Got a Blog!

Im not pretty sure if i saved my entry yesterday. As checking it right now, i wasn't (sad). I wrote but can't find where the entry is. So i did this one again. This would be actually my second entry. But anyway the purpose of blogging  is for my life sharing with who ever get the chance to read this. (non sense) should i say for now.

So what happened today? well nothing much. I just chat on FB at work. As usual the routinary tasks upon waking up in the morning is to wake up my lazy little boy is the first thing I did. Then start to prepare stuffs of of him for school. Then at eight o'clock sharp I'm already in the office. Turn on the computers and start the day.

Today I will be busy as a hibernating bear but next week will be busy as a bee.
Nothing much today. I just kill my time blogging and chatting with cousin in the states. I also search and read about camera. I'm planning to have one by December maybe something of Canon. A cheaper one powershot. Boss is not too pressured at work for now. Good for me.

Well, what i learned today is that "be true in everything you do" and put love on it... I got a blog!
