CLASSY WOMAN..

7.13.2025 #onlinediary
 
Hindi nakakaganda sa mga babae yung puro mura nalang mababasa mo sa chat or madidinig in vc or personal for 1 reason or another..
"tang*na, "peste, g*go, ul*l " 
 
Based on experience, these disrespectful hot-tempered women are also unloyal.. 
 
Even in the Holy Bible, it says:

 Kawikaan 21:19

"Mas mabuti pang tumira sa disyerto,
kaysa sa makisama sa babaing palaaway at magagalitin."



To my fellow men, i strongly advise to avoid these kind of women.. hindi gold pekpek ng mga nyan.. We are busy working so we should not waste time on them, let us look for a calm classy woman with long patience na magbibigay sa atin ng calm, peaceful, prosperous, & happy life..
 
Again, based on experience, calm women are also loyal.. & better in sex.. Maybe because they reserved their aggression on bed.. realtalk.. :)
 
Classy women are not defined in money. Women can be classy by being calm, clean, & good demeanor.. 
 
& when you find her, be loyal also & love her all your life..

 July 11, 2025 Tambay at UPLB Freedom Park on a lazy 2pm hot thursday afternoon. it is currently on a sem break during time of recording ---------------------- University of the Philippines Los Banos The University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB; Filipino: Unibersidad ng Pilipinas Los Baños), also referred to as UP Los Baños or colloquially as Elbi (pronounced ['ɛlbi]), is a public research university primarily located in the towns of Los Baños and Bay in the province of Laguna, some 65 kilometers southeast of Manila. It traces its roots to the UP College of Agriculture (UPCA), which was founded in 1909 by the American colonial government to promote agricultural education and research in the Philippines. American botanist Edwin Copeland served as its first dean. UPLB was formally established in 1972 following the union of UPCA with four other Los Baños and Diliman-based University of the Philippines (UP) units. === UPLB’s Freedom Park, also called DL Umali Freedom Park or F‑Park, is the university’s largest open field — a multipurpose green space surrounded by century-old trees and iconic landmarks. It’s beloved by students, locals, and visitors for both relaxation and activities 🌿 What Makes It Special 1. A Hub for Sports & Recreation The oval field is perfect for football, ultimate frisbee, jogging, zumba, and more Popular jogging routes: one full loop (~1.3 km) around upper and lower grounds, especially popular at sunrise or around 5 PM when it's cooler . Walking paths of 0.3 to 0.5 miles (~500 to 1,000 steps) are rated easy and ideal for casual exercise 2. Iconic Landmarks Rizal Centenary Carillon Tower and Fertility Tree mark one end; DL Umali Auditorium sits at the opposite end Bench-lined perimeter at upper grounds, known as the ‘marble seats,’ provides cozy hang-out spots Wanderlog . 3. Cultural and Community Events Venue for major campus occasions: FebFair, UPLB commencement exercises, Pride Month events like “Ride with Pride,” Bañamos Festival parades and drone shows Envisioned as UPLB’s counterpart to UP Diliman’s Sunken Garden 4. Relaxation & Study Spot Popular for picnics, stargazing, chatting or just lounging on the grass after classes . Benches and shady groves make it a peaceful alternative to indoor study spots 📍 Quick Facts Feature Details Area ~14.2 acres Perimeter routes ~0.3–0.5 mile loops Accessibility Open 24/7 (campus hours) Seasonality Can get muddy in rainy season, but there's covered grass for alternative use Pacer Wanderlog 💡 Tips & Insights from Students Best times to visit: Early morning (5:30 AM+) and late afternoon/evening (~5 PM) are most popular and pleasant Reddit . Jogging route suggestion: Start near CEM shed → pass Main Lib → end in Freedom Park; extend via Pili Drive for scenic views Getting there from Calamba: Ride UP College jeep from SM Calamba or Crossing, tell driver you’re going to Freedom Park. Fares are low (approx ₱35) 🎓 Why It’s Beloved Symbolizes the freedom of space—a wide green field for students and locals to freely express, protest, celebrate, and thrive . Hosts both quiet moments (like stargazing or solo runs) and noisy gatherings (like festivals and pride rides), offering a balance for different campus experiences. ✅ Summary Freedom Park is more than just a field—it’s F‑Park: a living space of fitness, friendship, protest, celebration, and study. Its iconic scenery, cultural importance, and open vibe make it a must-visit landmark in UPLB.

7.4.2025 Choose your clients wisely

 7.4.2025 Choose your clients wisely #onlinediary

Pag nabroke ka at need mo magraise ng funds, you just realized na madaming me utang sa yo.. na ilang years na hindi ka parin nababayaran.. So aside from BIR penalties (due to bookkeeping errors) yung mahina ka magkolek, ang isa sa reason why you are broke..
 
so dapat pag nagbusiness ka, ang kukunin mong admin is yung mahusay magrecords at magaling magcollect sa clients..Dapat me dedicated Collection department ka. Dahil nakafocus ka sa sales & marketing & operations, then ubos pa oras mo sa pagassikaso ng mga Govt permit etc,  hindi mo napagtutuunan yung collection mo.
 
Yung Collection mo ng sales kahit mga small amount lang, walang pinagkaiba sa freethrow sa basketball, na pag hindi mo nashoot akala mo oks lang, pero pag crucial yung game, dun mo marirealized na kung nashoot mo yun panalo kayo..
 
Like for example, this Spanish owned electronics company, nasa 2,000 USD yung utang sa akin for the solder bars na dineliver ko.. wala parin payment ilang years na.
 
we are selling various industrial tools & supplies since 2006 B2B, so almost 19yrs na pala.. Pero nasa records parin yung mga collectibles. Nakakadismaya din.. 
 
Yung isang solar company sa batangas na owned ng isang prominent politician sa batangas din, nasa 15K lang yung kinokolek naming payment for some electronic items we delivered, ilang years narin, laging wala daw budget yung accounting.. pero lagi nasa showbiz news yung owner na politician.. 15K lang ayaw pa bayaran.. 
 
then upon checking of records now, madami ding maliliit na amount 5K-20K na nadeliver sa mga mining companies sa makati na hindi rin mabayaran. Upon checking these mining companies are owned by politicians too..
 
Small amount lang yung mga 5K-20K pero pag pinagsama sama mo lahat ng small collectibles na bad accounts, malaki rin yun! laking sayang. Parang freethrows sa basketball, maiisip mo lang pag natalo ka na sayang, dapat nashoot mo yun.
 
So isa sa nakita kong "trend" is if ang company is owned by Filipino politicians. medyo ang hirap ikolek ang payment so umiwas nalang sa future sa mga ganyang clients. hahaha
 
Pero if ang company is owned by Filipino Tycoons, matagal sila magbayad, usually 3 months to 11 months, but sure na mababayaran ka. kaya oks lang din.
 
Ang pinakasasarap na clients is yung mga American owned, Australian/ British/ Japanese owned factories & companies , Mabilis sila magbayad at hindi ka mahihirapan, kusa na nila babayaran sa takdang due date kahit hindi ka magfollow up, Kusa siya darating sa bank accounts mo..
 
Special mention if ang clients mo ay nasa aviation or airlines.. Mabilis sila magbayad but they are very particular sa mga calibration/ products documents na kung ano ano.. Be sure na complete siya at accepted siya. 
 
Nagdeliver kami sa isang large aviation company but up to now, hindi parin kami nababayaran, nasa 150K din yun.. Brand new, very very good quality electronic measuring tool yung dineliver namin, yung mga quality manufacturers' document nya ay from the manufacturer at nasa box naman, but kulang daw so up now hindi parin kami mabayaran dun sa 150K.. hays

SIMCARDS..celfon numbers

 

nobody is perfect including the telcos kaya napipilitan ako magkaron ng 4 numbers..
so with my 1 work phone na usual hawak ko sa morning- i have TNT sim as main number, but its data is so mabagal in our area, & mahal yung data ng TNT.
So i am forced to have a Gomo (powered by Globe) sim as sim2 for data. Sobrang tipid ng data sa Gomo sim at mura siya kasi walang expiration ang data, you will only use it sa labas pag walang wifi, at higit sa lahat is mabilis siya.
so yun din gamit ko as sim2. But me text receiving issue ang Gomo globe, the text is sent but the receiver, walang narereceived na text. so i am forced to use TNT as my main number, because TNT is realible sa text, nakaGomo nalang pag gamit ng data.
--
then with my 1 personal phone na gamit ko sa gabi if medyo personal like paginom sa tropa, pagbike, pagbasketball, pang bible study..
here, i have both Gomo & Dito sim numbers, since usually if personal lang, usually messenger, viber at IG or data lang yung gamit. Bihira na kasi nagtetext & call now if personal, usually sa messenger nalang, Mabilis kasi data ng Gomo at Dito, hopefully makacatchup ang Smart TNT 5G
so basically i am using all the telcos available..hahaha, yes i am only using 5G phones na dual sims.. laking bilis as compared to the old non 5G phones. I dont like iphones because it is single sim only & i find esim a little complicated to use..

6.27.2025 ELECTION IS SACRED...NO TO IMPEACHMENT!

 

6.27.2025 ELECTION IS SACRED...
hi cici,
mahirap magkaron ng presidente sa 2028 na nagmemenopause.. syempre lagi mainit ulo nyan.. baka kung ano lalo mangyari sa ekonomiya...hahaha.
in fact, i really dont like a female ruler or a female president.. Just like the Witan of the Kingdom of Mercia, in England , it is in their policy not to elect a female ruler, because when you elect a Female leader, you are like electing its Husband as the de facto ruler, bypassing the Witan or the Election
Election is sacred! "The will of the people is the will of the God" . If you will elect a female president, it is much like making her husband as the de-facto president, hereby bypassing the election!
para saan pa yung election? It is the same reason why i strongly disagree with Impeachment ke vp sara or ke BBM..I am against impeachment of any sitting president or vp, because if impeachment is a politcal process.. Election is a politcal process too.. so para saan pa ang election natin? Para saan yung boto ng 32M Filipinos ke vp sara if iimpeach lang pala ng boto ng 16 senators?
During impeachment, the votes of 24 senators are more powerful than the votes of 67 Million registered voters that voted in 2022. Is that proper? Tama ba yun???
if vp sara is truly guilty as per accusations, you can just wait for her term to expired by 2028 & just file any case in our court.
wala ng mangyayari sa Pinas if lagi nalang tayo impeachment impeachment..
Kaya wala ako kabilib bilib talaga sa mga dilawan na so called "constitutionalist" ni cory, sila gumawa ng constitution 1987 at ng impeachment impeachment na yan pati partylist system.. They do that so they will always have a remedy pag natalo sila sa election. They can just simply impeach a sitting president or vp.. So bakit pa tayo nag eelection if iimpeach lang naman pala..
ELECTION IS SACRED.. Please respect it..

Hi Ferdinand, salamat sa pagbabahagi ng saloobin mo. Mahalaga ang ganitong klaseng diskurso sa demokrasya natin — bukas, matapang, at nagpapakita ng pagpapahalaga sa boto at proseso ng eleksyon. Narito ang ilang puntos na maaaring makatulong para balansehin ang usapan:

💬 Tungkol sa Babaeng Pangulo

Natural lang na may kanya-kanyang pananaw, pero mahalagang tandaan:

  • Menopause o emosyon ay hindi dapat maging batayan kung karapat-dapat ang isang tao sa pamumuno. Maraming lalaki ring pinuno ang naging mainitin ang ulo, ngunit hindi naging isyu sa kanilang pagiging epektibo.

    Kung batay sa kasaysayan at performance, may mga babaeng lider na matagumpay tulad nina:

    • Angela Merkel (Germany)

      Margaret Thatcher (UK)

      Corazon Aquino (PH)

Hindi rin totoo na palaging "de facto" president ang asawa — maraming babaeng lider ang independent, at ang asawa ay hindi nanghihimasok sa pamamahala.

⚖️ Tungkol sa Impeachment

Tama ka na ang impeachment ay isang political process, pero bahagi ito ng ating check and balance system sa gobyerno:

  • Hindi ito kapalit ng eleksyon kundi remedy kapag may bigat na kasalanan (graft, betrayal of public trust, etc.).

    Hindi madali ang impeachment — kailangan ng ⅔ vote sa Senado at sapat na ebidensya. Kaya hindi rin ito basta-basta nagagamit ng kahit sinong natalo sa eleksyon.

Ang boto ng 24 na senador ay hindi mas makapangyarihan kaysa sa 67 milyon. Ang tanging papel ng Senado sa impeachment ay imbestigahan ang posibleng kasalanan at magdesisyong base sa batas, hindi sa dami ng boto sa eleksyon.

🗳️ Tungkol sa Eleksyon at Boto

Tama ka sa prinsipyo na “Election is sacred.” Pero ang mandato ng taongbayan ay hindi lisensya para sa pang-aabuso ng kapangyarihan. Kaya may mga batas at proseso tulad ng:

  • Impeachment

    Ombudsman

    Sandiganbayan

Ito ay mga legal at demokratikong paraan para siguraduhin na ang mga halal na opisyal ay nananatiling accountable sa batas at sa taongbayan.

👀 Panghuling Pananaw

Magandang pakinggan ang pananaw mo — at totoo na minsan nagagamit ang sistema sa politika. Pero imbes na sirain ang impeachment, baka mas makabubuti kung paigtingin natin ang integridad ng mga institusyon — hindi alisin ang mga ito.

Ang tunay na problema ay hindi impeachment per se, kundi kung paano ito ginagamit o inaabuso. At dun tayo dapat mag-ingat.

Philippines should have 4 seasons din..

hi to our beloved scientists in Pagasa,
Unlike in USA where there are labeled 4 seasons , in the Philippines, when you googled, Pagasa said we only have 2 seasons- Dry & wet seasons.. Then hahaluan nila ng Amihan, etc, pati la nina, el nino.. magulo.. hindi tumatatak sa isip ng tao yung wet season, dry season now..
I suggest pasimplehin nalang, we formally label as we have 4 seasons, para tatatak ng husto rin sa mga LGU at sa mga mga tao, so we can do preparation for the Taginit & Tagbagyo, & prepare ahead the calendar of activities. For the benefits of our students & all. Para alam din ng mga turista..
i suggest we formally label we have 4 seasons din, in layman terrms
Summer/ Taginit= March, April, May
Tagulan= June, July, Aug
Tagbagyo= Sept, Oct, Nov ( if we formally acknowledge this season, our Mayors will surely act & prepare ahead for these months, where we usually have strong typhoons)
Taglamig= Dec, Jan, Feb ( Taglamig lang.. hindi winter or tagyelo)
WE can name more than 1,001 advantages if we will formally label we have these 4 seasons.
It can also be seen there is a distinct average sunrise during these months, The average sunrise time in the Philippines for the whole year is generally between 5:30 AM and 6:00 AM, depending on the month and location.
Month Average Sunrise Time
January 6:22 AM
February 6:15 AM
March 6:01 AM
April 5:39 AM
May 5:29 AM
June 5:27 AM
July 5:35 AM
August 5:42 AM
September 5:45 AM
October 5:48 AM
November 5:56 AM
December 6:15 AM
Of course, we all know that weather seasons, sunrise time, & all other geophysical phenomena are because mainly that our earth orbits around the sun.
The Earth orbits the Sun in an elliptical (oval-shaped) path, not a perfect circle. Kaya iba iba talaga ang season natin depende sa layo ng earth sa sun during a particular month, so hindi mo talaga pwede sabihing we have only 2 seasons..

6.16.2025 Birthday wish- WORLD PEACE! #onlinediary #worldpeace


6.16.2025 Birthday wish- WORLD PEACE! #onlinediary #worldpeace
Weather weather lang talaga ang buhay..
After centuries of being oppressed, persecuted, killed just because of their old religion.. Now these people become the oppressors, persecutors, invaders, occupiers.. They have become very very strong out of necessities because many countries are sworn to destroy them. They need to survive & win all wars. Because 1 defeat will mean their country will be destroyed.
Their land area is only about like the size of Metro Manila + Calabarzon+ Bulacan & Pampanga and their population is only about 60% the population of Metro Manila.. Yes, the population of Metro manila is even greater than the population of this small country.
And yet, this small country, is very very very strong militarily since military service and training is compulsary to all adult, They are very technologically advanced too. If there is one country that you can admire in a way, it is their country..
Surrounded at all sides by oil rich countries bowed to destroyed them, & yet still win all the wars..
But believe me, i will always choose a poor peaceful country like the Philippines than living in this rich technologically advanced country that has no peace..
After a surprise attack recently by a govt militia that killed around 1,700 of their people, their revenge is so brutal, so emphatic that they have so far killed 55,000 mostly civilians & hundred of thousands injured and hungry...
A ratio of about 1:32 & counting.. It is like saying to their enemies, if you kill 1 of our people, we will retaliate by killing 30.. So that no country/militia will dare to attack us again.. "Ibang klase lupit , walang sinabi si FPJ kung gumanti"..
But the wold is silent, because like me, we are afraid of being backlashed..
so my birthday wish now = STOP THE WAR! WORLD PEACE!

Good Job sa AFP , PNP & NTF-ELCAC for saving our youth..

 

 

6.14.2025 #onlinediary
hi cici,
Good Job sa AFP , PNP & NTF-ELCAC for saving our youth.. This NTF-ELCAC started by Digong na tinuloy ni BBM is parang game changer.. Kaya galit na galit mga makabayan (kuno) bloc ke digong gawa nito.. Dito mo rin makikita yung statemanship ni BBM, hindi nya binuwag itong commission nato kahit legacy to ni Digong. Salute to BBM!
I feel pity to Ms Charisse Bernadine Bañez, specially to her parents & love ones.. IF you will peek at her IG, she is so young, intelligent , pretty, nauto lang at naradicallized ng LFS.. Hopefully mahelp ng gobyerno ma "deradicalized"..
Lahat ng parents, malaking hirap na mapagtapos yung anak nila sa isang prestigious university, then rerecruitin lang ng mga hype na front pra mamundok, kumain ng kamote, gawing chicks ng mga kadre at makipagbakbakan sa militar?
Imagine the pain of Mrs. Luisa Espina.. when she realized that her daughter Louvaine Erika Espina, was recruited & radicalized by the terrorists.. Louvaine Erika Espina is just 16 yo when she was recruited & hidden by ANAKBAYAN! pootangeena talaga..
Now mo sabihin na hindi front yang mga yan? kahit sinong UP / PUP student alam na pag LFS direcho NPA na mga yan..kunwari immersion.. Sobrang mabulaklak ng mga bunganga ng mga yan.. Mauuto ka talaga..
Sabihin na nating kurap si sara duterte? pro itong sara duterte anti-terrorist to... ung ikumpara mo naman dun kina france castro , et al na nagrerecruit ng mga kabataan at nagraradicalized ng mga kabataan? if i will choose between 2 evils, of course, i will choose the lesser evil..
Walang pinagkaiba sa ISIS itong Makabayan (kuno) bloc at mga iba pa nilang front sa mga universities.. Both nagrerecruit at nagraradicalized ng mga kabataan, Both with obsolete & violent principles. Both are Terrorist.. Both are threats to parents like us..

𝗡𝗧𝗙-𝗘𝗟𝗖𝗔𝗖 𝗛𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 𝗔𝗿𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗻 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗼 𝗡𝗣𝗔 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝟳 𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀: 𝗔 𝗠𝗮𝗷𝗼𝗿 𝗩𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗔𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗣𝗣-𝗡𝗣𝗔-𝗡𝗗𝗙
The National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC) on Saturday lauded the successful joint AFP-PNP operation that led to the apprehension of top Southern Mindanao Regional Committee (SMRC) leaders, including Charisse Bernadine Bañez and Louvaine Erika Espina—two prominent personalities long associated with the communist terrorist movement.
NTF-ELCAC Executive Director Undersecretary Ernesto C. Torres Jr. congratulated the troops of the 10th Infantry (Agila) Division and the Police Regional Office 13 for their “resolute and strategic efforts in capturing these high-value targets.”
“This is not just an operational triumph—it is a vindication of the years-long whole-of-nation peace and development efforts. It proves once more the deep-rooted and dangerous links between the so-called activist groups like the League of Filipino Students (LFS) and the terrorist Communist Party of the Philippines-New People's Army-National Democratic Front (CPP-NPA-NDF),” Torres said.
Among those apprehended was Louvaine Erika Espina, alias “Pam,” daughter of Mrs. Luisa Espina, a brave mother and core member of the Hands Off Our Children (HOOC) movement—a group of parents whose children were lured, radicalized, and recruited into the NPA under the guise of student activism. The Espina family’s long and painful search for Louvaine ended on the very week they marked the 40th day since the death of her sister, Louise Espina, who spent her final years supporting the mission of the NTF-ELCAC and advocating for the protection of Filipino youth from communist deception.
Also arrested was Charisse Bernadine Bañez, alias “Nikki,” a former University of the Philippines Student Regent and national secretary-general of the LFS—now unmasked as the Secretary of the Southern Mindanao Regional Committee (SMRC) of the CPP-NPA-NDF.
“These are not mere coincidences. These are hard facts that expose the deceit of front organizations masquerading as defenders of rights while grooming our children for armed violence. The arrest of Bañez sends a powerful message: no one is above the law, and those who exploit youth and democracy for terrorism will be held accountable,” Torres added.
NTF-ELCAC reaffirms its unwavering commitment to end the local communist armed conflict and calls on the public, especially families and schools, to remain vigilant and united in defending the youth from subversive recruitment.
“This operation proves once again: the truth will always surface, and justice will always prevail,” Torres concluded.
