Now that I wear eyeglasses...


I never realized I had a BLURRY VISION all these years. Not until yesterday when I decided to have my own eyeglasses. (Thank God for bonuses!!!I needed glasses all along since I work with my Q-laptop more than anyone is supposed to in a day)

While driving with my eyeglasses on, I got stuck in traffic for few minutes. I looked at a billboard few meters away. For no reason I took off my glasses, put it back on, took it off again. There was a big difference. Without my eyeglasses on, the billboard letters and image were blurry, like 20-30% blurry(thanks to Photoshop I know how it looks). I put it back on: "Now this is a clear vision!"

All these years I had a blurry vision and I didn't know, not even a hint. This set of eyeglasses I have is like a REINFORCEMENT VISION--something to add up to what I have.

Lessons from the worm's eye-view:
A lot of people have a blurry vision for their lives. Sad fact is that they don't realize it at all. Most of the time, it takes someone else to put on EYEGLASSES to them, someone to put on a REINFORCEMENT VISION to get them fired up for something more purposeful and worth living for.

For the past days I have been doing this with the young guys we have in the campus ministry. They think they're good for something small. So most of them care less about deciding on some unwise stuffs. I had to tell them that they're NOT GOOD FOR ONLY NOTHING! They're good for SOMETHING BETTER. That God has prepared THOUSANDS of GUYS for them to INFLUENCE! It's a vision I have to instill in them to fire them up. Well I trust God it works for them.

>>We need a BIG VISION, a CLEAR BIG ONE, not a blurry kind of foresight.

Got my eyewear at Ideal Vision in LimKetkai Center, Cagayan De Oro... They sell affordable, quality eyewears. Mine is Giordano. The mall has a lot of optical clinics.

Wrong Notice...notice it!

I had to catch a taxi today from Carmen 'coz of the rain. Funny how some notes can make me get my camera and take photos... Check this out!Pls. Don't LEFT BEHIND daw...pwede PLS DON'T RIGHT BEHIND!

Pero if you're a tourist/vacationer coming to Cagayan De Oro, you'll surely enjoy the cabs here. We have the best cabs in the whole of the Philippines...Kia is not a pride here...Avanza, Altis, and the likes are.

Drivers in Cagayan De Oro aren't rude (at least for cabs).
Come na! And check out those notes they have you might have a good laugh.

Cagayan De Oro is out of HUMAN STOCK

Cagayan De Oro is losing the call center talents for the local call center industry.

This is a from a recent report in Philippine Daily Inquirer. Workers are said to have been flocking in Manila and Cebu. These are usually where former call center representatives in CDO go after getting themselves familiar with the work system here.

Let me put it simple here. Most people use the local call centers here as their training ground. After a while, they resign and get hired to a bigger company for a higher salary (what do you expect?).

There's nothing wrong with this. Anyone can take his/her own path. But this is something alarming to the local call center companies.

For those who don't have jobs and are planning to work at a call center here in Cagayan De Oro, this is ONE GREAT NEWS. Come to think of it! Arriba and Concentrix and all the other who knows there's such a company, will certainly be having a massive hiring campaign.

Xavier University: THE UNIVERSITY in Cagayan De Oro

I'm amazed! And proud to have come from Xavier University -- Ateneo De Cagayan.

"Excellence is not a secret...not something that's classified.

I honestly believe if you do things not for your own glory but for the glory of God, which really means for the dignity and wealthy of others, if you're always thinking of others excellence will rise spontaneously to the surface."

Fr. Jet Villarin
Xavier University President

I graduated few years ago in this university. As it celebrates its 75th year... PARTY NAH!!!!!! WOHOOO!
When in Cagayan De Oro (tourists & vacationers), pay Xavier University Campus a visit. It's worth the walk inside the campus vicinity.
Relax ug chill bai! Be sure to bring your ID.

Gaisano Rung Ispeling

Grabe! They can afford to staff people to their mall (Gaisano Mall) but they can't afford to hire people who can put rightly spelled MOVIE TITLES... Check out these photos. (you can click some of it to enlarge)So on a rainy day in Cagayan De Oro I noticed this funny spelling of HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL film. Gosh! Simple word: the theatrical movie became like a pageant for the most Beautiful MUSE...the HIGH SCHOOL MUSEcal.

Thanks for viewing this. You can click this to help me further. THANKS!

For vacationers/tourists, it's still great to visit Cagayan De Oro. Gaisano is just one of the malls and they don't necessarily spell the same way this mall does. Haha

From Vampires to Jesus...the ANNE RICE twist

“To be able to take the tools, the apprenticeship, whatever I learned from being a vampire writer, or whatever I was — to be able to take those tools now and put them in the service of God is a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful opportunity,” she said. “And I hope I can redeem myself in that way. I hope that the Lord will accept the books I am writing now.”

-Anne Rice

Yes, that's a statement by no other than the 'vampire writer' herself, Anne Rice. You can read the full article from Philippine Star subsidiary by clicking this.

It's a BIG TWIST she's making. And I am preparing my pocket to buy this book and see how it would actually go. The atheist has grown as a writer and went back to God indeed. (her new book is CALLED OUT OF DARKNESS: A spiritual confession)
“I mean, I’ve made vampires believable to grown women. Now, if I can do that, I can make our Lord Jesus Christ believable to people who’ve never believed in him. I hope and pray.”
-Anne Rice

We've yet to see. But I admire this woman. She now writes for the glory, not for thyself, not for thou, but for thy God.

Well a lot of my friends want to avail of this book. Gosh I hope it comes out in bookstores here in Cagayan De Oro. I haven't found books as unique as books in Fully Booked(and the likes) really in this locality. For vacationers, I love Cagayan De Oro but it's just not the place to find great, unique books (bookstores are not so 'place to go' here).
