spotted: a new poker house

 
    First of all, this is not a paid post. I’m not being paid by the establishment to do this, but if they do want, they can donate on my PayPal account.wahe. Just wanna share the new poker house by the name of Poker Royale located alongside Traders Hotel in Roxas Boulevard. I learned from one of the staff that the place was running for a month, and they are still in soft openning mode. The poker house is inside a two storey building. As of the moment only the ground floor is filled with 6 small tables and one tourney size table. And the staff told me, if I remember it right, that they will be adding more tourney size tables to be place on the 2nd floor or on the ground floor.

     Yeah, as far as I can notice, the place is still really new. By the looks of it; the entrance is still to be installed a CCTV cam (the holder and cables are ready execpt for the cam itself) ang their website at www.pokerroyale.ph is still unavailable. Inside, the venue is smaller compared to, ahmm… MBC in MOA, hence of the smaller size tables. You’re really be havin a friendly game with each player sitting side-by-side with a couple of inch distance. But, when I play, I prefer this kind of set-up ’cause I like to be in a funny table.LoL. The table is much more dealer friendly to ’cause the dealer wouldn’t haveto stand and extend to much of their limbs to deal cards and get chips.

     Poker Royale offers the same complementary service other poker house has to offer; free unlimited ice tea and coffee, tha’ts really one thing the encouraged me to enter my first poker experience.hehe.. Where else could you drink ice tea and coffee bottom less, and take note even if your not playing, but at a friendly poker house. LoL. I liked the ambience as well. But one thing I really liked about Poker House, which for me made it better than MBC is that one can play for a minimum buy-in of 200 pesos. Whew! how good is that for a marketing strategy, it will encourage beginners to play the game.

      So that’s it for now. Again I’m not a poker addict or some sort. I admit, I’ve only been inside 2 poker house, MBC and PR, I can say that I like the latter the most. So friends see you at Poker Royale’s poker tables. And before i really end thos post, I’d like to show my lucky winning hand combination for the night. \m/

Rise of the Fallen

      Yeah, I admit it, I’ve fallen for a couple of times now (specially in 2010). But who has’nt? As the saying goes, don’t count how many times you have fallen instead count your rising times. Naks… typing this thought is not easy as I first imagine it. Is it really me? Is it the new me? Or is it the real me that no ONE ever knew?

     Guess what? After a couple of months of being down. I’m starting to rise back up on my own. haha. This time it’s up to me, to do the real world action and Papa Jesus Who guides and protect me every single day. This is really not me after all.haha

     After months of being in disarray, I realized that really it takes two to tango but it takes ME to live my life. Life isn’t about dancing anyways. It’s not about the person around you. It’s not about where you are, it’s not about timing. It’s my every time.

     Now I recently transferred to a new pod but still in the same neighborhood I grew up. Now I’m more determined to live my life to the fullest. whew! But I still live my life to the foolest sometimes. hehe. Slowly, I’m rising back up again. I plan to start a small business together with M and K. I’m still waiting to boot-up my own PC so I could do online jobs anytime.hehe. Still, I believe that you must not force yourself to work if you know you will not be happy there. Look for a happier environment.

     Now I’m more matured. I’m out of my comfort  zone. It’s ME in the world. Eventhough I got friends and family, it is still me. If you want to help me, then do it financially.ehehe.. just kidding.

     Kidding aside, recently I also bought a book entitled “DUH?!!!” by “Francis Kong”. (image is the book cover). I give credit to Ma’am Ana V for letting me read her also newly purchased book that time. And now Ialso suggest this book to those who wants to reflect and be inspired. In this book I learned new insights on God, love, family, career, friendship and life.I really recommend thisbook to everyone especially to those who have attitude problems.hehe. But this is really a good book.

To love is a decision. Being happy is also a decision. But it only takes PRIDE to change everything so learn to handle your self. -FLM on learnings from FK

Ang kwento ng Donut

ahmmm… mataga-tagal din ang huling sulat ko dito… gusto ko lang ibahagi sa lahat ang isang maikling kwento na tiyak kong kapupulutan nyo ng aral….sana….

     Sa makatuwid, parang tao ‘yan… mas madali nakikita ng mga tao ang negatibong bagay kumpara sa mga positibong bagay. Ang sabi nga ni brader Kitt0y eh “kahit na gano karaming kabutihan na ang ginawa mo, ngunit gumawa ka lng ng isang maliit na hindi maganda eh mas matatandaan pa ung mali mong ginawa”.

     Ako napagnilay-nilayan ko at isinasabuhay na sa ngaun ang kwento ng donut. Nawa ikaw ay makapag nilay nilay sa aking munting naibahagi.

     Ang mahalaga sa lahat eh lagi natin isasapuso at isasabuhay si “C”…si Christ….

napuna ko kay DARNA

DISCLAIMER: Ang inyong mababasa at makikitang mga pag-puna ay walang kinalaman sa paninira. Gusto ko lang ibahagi sa mga mamayan ng internet ang mga nakita kong kakaiba sa mga superhero lalong-lalo na kay Darna. Ang mga naisulat ko sa ibaba ay hindi paninira sa Darna at sa mga tauhang gumaganap dito.

….hindi naman talaga ako isang kritiko pero mabilis lang talaga makapuna ang aking mata at utak ng mga bagay-bagay na sa tingin ko ay may kakaiba….

 …kagabi gaya ng nakagawian ko kapag walang raket eh nanuod ako ng Darna habang hinihintay ang pag-uwi ni LV. Sa aking panunuod eh tila may napansin akong kakaiba kay Darna. Hindi ko alam kung may nakapansin na din ibang manunuod dito. Medyo bubutingtingin ko ang mga pagiisip ng mga fans ni Darna.

     Alam naman ng lahat na ang mga superhero ay ang mga nilalang na pinaka-mabilis magpalit ng kasuotan o kostyum. Ang iba nga eh umiikot lang at….dyyyaaannnaannnn…. superhero na… At ka-akibat ng pagpapalit ng mga anyo nila eh, otomatik na nag-bubulag-bulagan na ang mga sibilyan na kasama ng mga superhero kapa sila ay nasa normal na anyo. Ang ibig ko lang sabihin eh kapag sila ay superhero na eh hindi na sila nakikilala ng mga kaibigan nila. Iyan ay ang kaunti sa aking mga napansin sa mga superhero.

     Mabalik tayo kay Darna, alam n’yo bang si Darna  ang mayhawak ng kasalukuyang rekord ng babaeng superhero na siyang pinaka-mabilis magpalit ng kasuotan? Sa aking napansin sa tuwing si Narda ay magpapalit anyo bilang Darna eh meron siyang baon palaging isa o dalawang extrang (salawal/saplot) underwear. Sa sunod na manunuod kayo o magbabalak manuod ng Darna eh subukan ninyong tingnan ang aking sinasabi. Pero sa mga walang panahon at ayaw lang talaga manuod ay eto ang ilan sa mga eksena na ginawa kong larawan mula sa Youtube.com :

Angels & Demons

     I was to post this yesterday but eventually I got bored to even turn-on the pc. First I want to thank Nikita and SkyCable for sharing premier ticket(s) (photo @ right). It was my first time to watch a movie premier.It was held last May 15 at Cinema 1, Glorietta 4. I admit the complimentary food was not that great tasting, but hey, you can’t expect free food to always taste good after all. hehehe =). 

     If I would rate the movie from a scale of 1 to 10, I would give it an 8. Although, I have not read the book itself unlike its predecessor  “The Davinci Code”, the movie version of Angels & Demons was packed with more action than the first.  The story of the movie revolves around a murder in the Vatican caused by the come back of the Catholic church’s toughest enemy, the secret society of the “Illuminati”, which also threatens to explode an “Antimatter” bomb within Vatican. 

     I found the movie somewhat interesting. I didn’t found it as controversial as what other critics are saying. Im not a religous professor, researcher or somekind, but I guess there were really parts in the movie that shouldnt have been there in the first place. What I liked about the movie, was the way it presented the relationship between Science and Religion. After watching the movie, one “might” have thoughts about maybe Science was right or maybe the Catholic church was right afterall. The characters in the movie played very important roles because they gave the movie the spice that a thriller movie goer is looking for. During the first part, you can’t really pin point on whos who in the movie. At first, I tought that the Swiss security head was the real mastermind of the Illuminati but then again i”ve also tought that it could have been the Camerlengo or maybe the head of the college of cardinals or the head of the Vatican security or me…=) . I suggest that you watch the movie and discover for yourself who the real “Demon” was.

     Finally (im running out of time, maybe i’ll just edit this post in the future), to read more about the movie, you can visit http://www.angelsanddemonsmovie.org/index.html.

“The Illuminati did not become violent until the 17th Century. Their name means ‘The Enlightened Ones’. They were physicists, mathematicians, astronomers. In the 1500’s they started meeting in secret, because they were concerned about the church’s inaccurate teachings. They were dedicated to scientific truth. And the Vatican didn’t like that. So the church began to, how did you say it? Oh, hunt them down and kill them.” -Robert Langdon
