Umaasa wari nga ba Ganito ng lahat ng matatamasa Isang yugto na ngayo'y alamat Ng masasayang mga araw ng ating buhay Nang namalayan sa susunod na lang Tama bang isipin nakakayamot Kailangang limutin Kung minsan man nangakong habang buhay Sumasabay sa awit ko Mga hangad na sana'y tayo Hanggang dito na lang ba Hanggang dito na lang ba muna tayo Umaasa wari nga ba Ganito nang takbo Napapanahon tulad din Ng kulay ng buhok mo Ang buhay ko pala ay parang antipara sadyang malabo ako'y malabo - Wari / de Lara
Look at me working on your buttons Look at me working on your shoes Look at me working on your broken self esteem But in the end of it all it won't mean a thing Look at me working on your brand new car Look at me working on your bills for heaven sake you Look at me working on up until ungodly hours But at the end of it all it won't mean a thing Coz I've been working all my life In such a selfless measure I've been working all my days Buried in hundred feet deep I am weaved into your life not That it's something that I regret But at the end of it all It won't mean a thing Look at me working on your laundry Look at me working on your kids life Look at me working on your annulment case But a the end of it all It won't mean a thing For the times I gave my heart out For the times I gave my soul You just stared back at me Like I haven't given enough All the times I prayed for A little bit of sanity I gave it all away - work out / de Lara

wahhhh. hangang email.... WHY I WILL VOTE FOR NOYNOY - WINNIE MONSOD Posted by: Let's hear it from the great economist herself.... Read, be informed, and vote wisely !!!!! Please pass this to as many people as you can, so everyone will be enlightened !!!! WHY I WILL VOTE FOR NOYNOY - WINNIE MONSOD > Share > Wed at 11:31pm > i love winnie monsod. she has eloquently put into words the > reasons why i will vote and encourage people to vote for > noynoy. > > thanks can for sharing this with me =) > > ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --- > Monsod's Musings > Winnie Monsod > > Villar still refuses to attend the > Senate to face questions, and it only reminds me of how > GMA used the privilege of her office to avoid questioning. > What will happen if Villar wins and more corruption scandals > surface? > > With Villar catching up to Noynoy in the polls, I am > honestly quite terrified of the prospect of him winning. > There is a clear case of graft in this instance, and instead > of delving into the issues, his allies in the legislative > are simply brushing off the allegations as "politically > motivated". As a citizen, we should not accept this. If > there is smoke, we must see if there is a fire that needs to > be put out. Yes, the timing of the allegations seem a bit > off. ( Joker Arroyo was pushing these issues as early as > 1998). A known crook and political opportunist, Juan Ponce > Enrile, is the person leading the censure. However, when the > facts are presented, it is clear as day that something is > amiss. It just further builds on my strong suspicions that > Villar is a > businessman simply looking to control the political arena > to make a boat load of money. > > I have never trusted Villar since day one. I never trust > businessmen who enter politics, because in the end, their > core value is and always will be profit maximization. It is > well documented that Villar's real estate empire ran > into some serious financial problems when his overexposure > to the real estate market and the Asian Financial Crisis > made him unable to pay debts he took out to expand his real > estate business in the early 1990s. After the Asian Crisis > hit, Capitol Bank, owned by Villar and heavily exposed to > his real estate investments was essentially ran to the > ground and needed to be bailed out. In 2005, Villar tried to > solve his debt problems by hiring a group of investment > banks to advise him on how he can consolidate all his assets > into one company (Vista Land). With the local and foreign > investment bankers, Villar came up with a growth story for > investors: "Invest in my company because we need it > to fund all these wonderful project!" > However, what was downplayed during the IPO roadshow was > that instead of financing growth, resources from the > offering would be used to finance his debt. To appease > creditors, Villar even had his investment bankers pitch some > form of a debt-to-equity conversion that raised skeptical > eyebrows of many. In 2007, the IPO of Vista Land did not do > as well as planned, in part because many investors and > brokers were the same people who were burned by Villar's > inability to pay back his loans. > > Now, as part of a corporate growth (or should I say > corporate restructuring) plan, Villar is lusting for the > highest position in the land. This scares me because Villar > already has a track record of using his political position > to gain the upper hand for his businesses. To save his > empire and increase shareholder value of his business, > Villar used his influence as Senate > Finance Chair to shrewdly derail a Cavite road project > that was supposed to be BUILD, OPERATE, and TRANSFER. Villar > built a longer and more expensive road, the C-5 extension, > adjacent to it; subsequently forcing the private investor in > the initial project to pull out. The fishy thing is that > this new road, longer and more expensive than the previously > planned project, passed through all of Villar's land in > Cavite. It is a clear case of graft, pointing to Villar use > of influence and government funds to substantially improve > the values of his real estate properties. To add insult to > injury > the right of way the government would have to pay in order > to complete the project was substantially higher for the > land that Villar owned. These funds could have easily been > used to build needed schools. > > This scandal should be a red flag for all voters. However, > the scary part is that Villar is spending billions to keep > this out of the picture as he continues > his attempt to brainwash our masses that he is their > saviour. He convinces the masses that he is one of them. A > poor boy from the slums of Tondo. In actuality, he is more > like the 5-6 and syndicates, slum dwellers themselves who > make a profit out of their poor brethren. Villar's ad > agencies are doing an excellent job of maintaining this > image as well as doing damage control. TV and radio > continues to churn out Parokya Ni Edgaresque jingles that > compete with "Nobody, Nobody." Dolphy is > Villar's new spokesperson and Wowowee is one giant ad > for him. In this process of brainwashing, the masses are not > cognizant of how Villar conducts business as a politician. > What they do not see is a man hell bent on turning our > archipelago into his own personal piece of real estate. > > It is sad that the efforts of Juan Ponce Enrile, who is > leading the censure for Villar, is actually giving Villar > more sympathy votes. People do no trust Enrile, and when > Enrile pounces > on someone, it is usually met with a high degree of > skepticism. I do not blame people for feeling this way. I > also think Enrile is a crook who should be jailed for > conspiring to implement Martial Law, for coup attempts, and > for the human rights abuses during the Marcos regime. If > someone with a more respectable reputation were to level > these charges on Villar, I am sure the surveys would tell a > different story. > > I also fear from some credible reports that Malacanang has > actually made a deal with Villar (under the table). > Essentially, GMA's goons said, "We will help you, > in return, leave us alone when you win". Villar's > behaviour in recent forums further adds credence to these > reports as Villar has been very tame and quiet when it comes > to how he will treat GMA after the elections. Appealing to > common sense, it makes ALL THE SENSE for GMA to support > someone who has a chance of winning, not a person rating at > 4% in the surveys. GMA tried to reach > out to Noynoy after Tita Cory died. All she got was > rejection. > > Who can stop Villar in his quest for the presidency? > > I am known to be a Noynoy supporter, but to those skeptics > and to those who are still undecided, I do concede that he > is not perfect. His record as a politician is average and > unspectacular at best. He does not have the charisma of his > father. Before the death of his mother, he did not get much > mileage. But I am going all out in support for Noynoy in > 2010 because he stands for clean governance and appear > willing to accomplish this. In addition, he has the best > chance of preventing a opportunistic businessman, the > assured next President of our country before Cory died, from > using the Office of the President as a personal growth asset > to his business empire. > > Noynoy's clean record is a big plus for me. It is a > trait that I think should be the most important quality that > we should look for in our next president. His appeal > is that his track record is not tarnished by corruption > scandals and his political debts are minimal. I know that > many critics are trying to make an issue over his > involvement in Hacienda Luisita, but Noynoy is not even > heavily involved in the company. As a shareholder, Noynoy > only owns .04% of Hacienda Luisita, a drop in the ocean and > hardly in any position to do something about it. The case of > the Hacienda does not have the substance that the C-5 > extension controversy has a lot of. > > In addition, Nonoy also has an incredible legacy to live up > to. All the pressure is on him to be clean and stay clean. > He can't afford to tarnish the Aquino name and the > immense legacy that his parents left behind. Cory and Ninoy > practically sacrificed their family for their dream of a > better Philippines. For Noynoy, to know that your father and > mother went through so much hardship to improve our country > is a heavy burden to think about if you do decide to become > a > crook and destroy everything that they fought for. > > We all have to make a choice. In my opinion, it has to go > to the presidentiable who has an independent mind, stands up > for what he believes in, is clean, and has the legacy his > parents to live up to and maintain. For me, Nonoy, with all > his flaws, is that candidate.

He does not need > a degree from Harvard. He does not need to have a > multi-million peso business to show me he can make us all > rich. He does not have to speak well. He just has to be > clean.

Plastic people with their plastic lives Plastic lips tell plastic lies Plastic drivers in plastic cars Plastic food from plastic jars Frustration is the fuse The flame is hate Tick tick tick Detonate She's the bomb Plastic models in plastic magazines Plastic kings and plastic queens All are seen on plastic tvs Prayed to by people on bended plastic knees What you think, well that's good too But not as much as what do you do This fuse burns slow Waiting to blow The world is a heavy load Watch it explode Lawmakers with plastic policies Put plastic locks on their cities In hopes to keep them quiet Well go off Well blow up - The bomb L7
