Mea Culpa...darn...not too bad though!

Myspace Welcome Comments
I'm gonna eat my words...I am retracting something that I once have had said.If something has been closed, there'll be always a key to reopen it again. That is something that falls on principle and in spirit (ashamed) of having loved the craft and skill of blogging. For about 2 years this has been my passion that had in a way filled the void...the crevasse so to say...that had also helped me veered my exhausted mind from sifting those enormous dilemmas and never ending life concerns. But who got none, anyways. We all do have our own share of everything, I guess. I am awfully sorry that I've never thought that the usual verve in me would be gone for awhile...sometimes we just have to have this alone-time when we're slumped in a sudden doldrums. I just thought it was my physical problem of sort...but to put it straight I have lost my interest in writing because my mind wasn't working well for me... because of something none-sense! I kept my mind busy from much reading...reading and reading, but I did miss my blog...Cakes and Ale, hook, line and sinker. It's a regular open and close humdrum existence...for 13 very long days for me. If you love something so much...in any manner, you'd feel so much guilt. It's hard to let go...I did buy my time. I got so many emails telling this and that, but luckily they respected my decision. Plus the fact that I am getting voluminous opportunities the past weeks that I have never have had imagined. The tasks seem to grow more...and so it means another day another dollar! : ) So now, my inner self tells me to hang on...and cling to my passion. I really love so much to write...that's why I'm here to revoke and so also rescind my past decision to close this one. Nothing in this world is permanent except change. And this Cakes and Ale will always be dearest to my heart so I have no little will to strangulate nor suppress this from functioning perfectly.

So...welcome me again, to my home. It's good to be back!

PS/ I changed my music...for a change, SessionRoad and Imago are great...they are one of my favorite Pinoy show bands. Hope you'll enjoy!

Again...I love Cakes and Ale ...so so much !!!

There will always be goodbyes...

Thank you guys, for all the support you've given me... in span of two years managing this blog...and the rest of which I authored. It has been a blessing to write and be able to reach out...and be a part of a whole. Blogosphere is quite an enjoyment to those like me who has all the passion and inclination using dexterity and most of all the expression and power of our rich mind. I just do love writing and I enjoyed every minute of it without complaining even if it hurts me bone-deep...I mean literally because of my scoliosis...that sedentary lifestyle it gives.

Everything will always come to an end...and so this blog. I have just lost interest to continue this in the next coming year of 2009...and onward.

Thank you...thank you guys for the warm welcome and treatment I've got here.

Laugh out loud!

I snagged this from my good friend Carlos...You can visit his blog by this link...am sure you'll roll and laugh...and enjoy. O Papa Xicolates.

Not once but twice...

What a way to end his post, a few weeks from now. He'll be in office only until January wherein Obama is readying himself for that great 1st day of his office as the official president-elect of the United States. But the way this hurling of size 10 shoe of an enraged Iraqi journalist only defines discord and lack of harmony in idealism, purpose and principles. I feel for Bush because as president this is very demeaning and indicting. Some will condone and some will condemn. I don't know his exact reason why he hasn't even got hold of his emotion nor control of his anger, but hurled even twice. Maybe there's a deeper reason behind, but for sure he'll be held in contempt with what he has done against the chief official of the land. We can do better and can express better than hurling of the shoes...or you'll end up strutting barefooted in the long run.

I feel so sad....

I was thinking of giving up this blogging passion of mine when I took notice that it not only confines me but also giving me a sedentary lifestyle almost taking a lot of most of my time. Being scoliotic I'm always almost having a hard time sitting on my butt for hours and in fact also ruining my eyes to greater strain and smarting. It came to my mind that, what if I print everything I've done here for the past years since I got started as a newbie? For posterity reason I really am thinking of doing it. It's just that am waiting for myself to buy me a new USB to save everything...if not to print everything.
And here one day...my dear friend emailed me that he too will close his' and he did. He went ahead closing it talaga. It's kind of sad, because actually...if there's one site that I do loved to visit, definitely it was Testnisse on my top list. Why? It all started with the song I love so much...Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb." We have the same choices of music from different genres. Even those instrumentals he has...it's all nice and I liked it so much when I was there visiting his photos while enjoying the music as well. One thing I'm grateful of here in blogosphere is getting to know some good and sensible people here and out of the country. And one true example is my dear friend Carlos...the know-it-all man.

But anyway...you'll enjoy his cartoon...lol...I hope it will stay longer. Obrigado!

PS/ To you Carlos, just stay as sweet as you are, and stay healthy! Okey?! ***hugs***

Comfortably Numb (Pink Floyd)

BAUMKUCHEN, ikaga desu ka...

The King of Cakes, which is actually from Hungary na ngayon ay patok sa mga Japanese. Wow, rapsa...and I got to taste it when a Japanese friend gave me one as present during my stay there. Those who're lucky enough to go in and out of Japan can truly say that this' one of the most popular na pastries sa kanila ngayon. Hala...pipila ka pa talaga. Eh masarap eh. It's like our pianono lang pero napakasarap niya...hanapin nyo sa Nagoya.

Trust, but look for the exits.

In My Life (Beatles)

There are places i'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends i still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life i've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When i think of love as something new
Though i know i'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know i'll often stop and think about them
In my life i love you more

Though i know i'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know i'll often stop and think about them
In my life i love you more
In my life i love you more

I'll Follow The Sun

One day you'll look to see I've gone
For tomorrow may rain,
so I'll follow the sun

Some day you'll know I was the one
But tomorrow may rain,
so I'll follow the sun

And now the time has come
and, my love, I must go
And though I lose a friend
In the end you will know, oh

One day you'll find that I have gone
But tomorrow may rain,
so I'll follow the sun
But tomorrow may rain,
so I'll follow the sun

And now the time has come
and, my love, I must go
And though I lose a friend
In the end you will know, oh

One day you'll find that I have gone
But tomorrow may rain,
so I'll follow the sun

Trying to put things in a new light...

From a great piano sensation Jim Brickman...here is Angel Eyes...


I thought of embedding Partners in Crime, but I failed to find one with Jim B. I have here Your Love, since it is one of the most loved songs until now, rather than putting any cover instead.

Gone too soon...(Babyface with SW)

For Marky Cielo...



Like A Comet
Blazing 'Cross The Evening Sky
Gone Too Soon

Like A Rainbow
Fading In The Twinkling Of An Eye
Gone Too Soon

Shiny And Sparkly
And Splendidly Bright
Here One Day
Gone One Night

Like The Loss Of Sunlight
On A Cloudy Afternoon
Gone Too Soon

Like A Castle
Built Upon A Sandy Beach
Gone Too Soon

Like A Perfect Flower
That Is Just Beyond Your Reach
Gone Too Soon

Born To Amuse, To Inspire, To Delight
Here One Day
Gone One Night

Like A Sunset
Dying With The Rising Of The Moon
Gone Too Soon

Gone Too Soon

Hurrah for Pacman's superb power...!

Can it be described as what's the Black Swan theory metaphorically says? The young Pacman then who metamorphosed into a Goliath in the boxing ring...the brawny medium built from Gensan, has emerged as one of the strongest man inside the arena. The low-profile and first rate pugilist exudes a very strong discipline along with muscles and strength that made him of what he is right now...

In The Arms of The Angel

For Marky Cielo...

Here's to you Manny!

There's so much to celebrate in Manny's camp and also all the Filipinos as well around the world.The undersized pugilist compared to de la Hoya, won against his Goliath opponent on the 8th round...it was indeed an awesome lopsided dream match. De la Hoya is really a true gentleman praising and congratulating the true champion of the boxing ring. Oscar suffered some bruises and contusion from Manny's painful quick blows. Manny won the bout and left the arena unscathed. He's really a superb fighter! And he's $11 million richer! "Moneyed" Pacquiao...money na...pinakyaw pa! Well...well...well...if it rains, it falls!

He deserves all the accolades...Bravo!!!

The Dream Match and the most awaited year ender!

This is it! Everyone seems to be frantically waiting the most talked about Dream Match to be aired today, in a little while. The most awaited match inside the ring, a match of endurance. Wow, a real test of real strength. Nobody is either dark horse here since they both have real stamina to receive the opponent's hard punches. They both have worked so hard to prepare themselves for who will gonna raise those winning knuckles still in red boxing gloves...and who'll be knocked out from those excruciating pain of unguarded smashes and heavy blows.
I heard Karylle (daughter of Zsa zsa Padilla) will be singing our national anthem, a big turn in her career after her recent split from Dingdong Dantes. As the old adage goes, when God closes doors...some windows will be opened for sure. You can't have both of everything.
Now going back, where are you placing your 50 dollar bet? Of course (win or lose)I am rooting for Pacquiao, a southpaw pugilist from GenSan who have a killer left hook. Pinoy eh!

Let's get ready to rumble!
