Bisrock!

Bisrock. The rising phenomenon all over Visayas and Mindanao has recently had another stage of its popularity with the album launching of the now acclaimed indie bisrocker Missing Filemon. The carrier single of the band's second album Sine Sine has caught the Cebuanos by storm.

Sine Sine

Sine-sine wala ta'y laing lingaw
Kandila luyo sa habol
Katawang binayran ug pisong kinawat
Sa gubaong pitakang lola

Anino sa mga artistang papel
Gihinganlan ta'g si Pedro'g Sabel
Silang bida ning atong istorya
Sa gugma nga wa'y katumanan

Sine, sine, sine sa bata pa
Di na unta matapos pa
Bisan paman sa pagdagan sa panahon
Lantawon mga eksena nga molabay
Tanang tawo makasakay
Saksihan ta ang pagdagan sa panahon
Panahon

Sige-sige hala'ng imong paglakaw
Ayaw'g kahadlok may kahayag
Mudan-ag sa dalang mangitngit
Lakip na ang langit daw lapad nga adlaw

Ang kinabuhi sugilanong hiwi
Kalipay, kasakit ug kalami
Silang bida niining salida
Sa gugma nga way katuman

A Letter to Elisha Joelle Samarah

My Dearest Elisha, I promised myself that I would write about this day since the very first time I saw your cute tiny face at the Intensive Care Unit in the hospital where I delivered you. I told myself that I would chronicle the events so you would understand how great God is in your life and how you have come to be a miracle in your father and I's lives. However, I cannot tell you everything now for the story of how you came to be is too long for you to understand at the moment and too difficult for me to explain in writing. But, I'm going to try nonetheless, soon, little by little, and hopefully, the chronicles would be complete when you are old enough to comprehend. For now, let me just remember the sweetest yet the most difficult day of my life.  Your father and I did not expect you to come at that point in our lives. I, especially, wanted to achieve a lot of things and did not even think about settling down anytime soon. When I found out that I was pre...

Filipinos Make Mr. Art Bell Puke... That's Not the Case With Me!

A hate mail has been circulating in the web right now against Filipinos and Philippines as a country. It is clearly a product of ignorance and I am greatly outraged and that the same time saddened by the contents of the open letter. The letter was written by a man named Art Bell who is reportedly a radio commentator. I don't know where he based his opinions but they are really ridiculous! His letter entitled "Filipinos Make Me Puke" is in blue below. A response to the letter by a fellow Filipino is in green while my own response is in red. Filipinos Make Me Puke By: Art Bell As we've all come to notice, in the past few decades, Filipinos have begun to infest the United States like some sort of disease. Their extensive involvement in the U.S. Armed Forces is proof of the trashy kind of qualities all Filipinos tend to exhibit on a regular basis. You can see this clearly by studying the attitudes and cultural Icons of most Filipino Americans. Origins of Pinoys/Pinays...

Invictus -- A House Built on Sand

The most difficult time of my life thus far is probably not a secret. Most people who are close to me know about it though only very few are familiar with all the details. I didn't necessarily broadcast it and I didn't keep it a secret either. It's just that, people were not asking.  At that time, my plan was to write a blog about it. Even when I was still in the hospital, in my mind I was already planning how I would write it and when I would write it. When I finally reached the chosen time of writing what I was planning, I really couldn't do anything other than stare at my laptop with an open Word Document which remained blank for several hours. I tried to write many times because I knew that I didn't go through what I went through just to keep things to myself. There is always a greater reason for every circumstance, I thought. But despite trying so many times, I really couldn't get myself to write. Hours became days, days became weeks, weeks became mon...
