Galleria before my 4pm dance class in Makati. Didn't have my trusty old supermAc with me then. Only had my doodle notebook so i decided to try out if i can still draw. Haven't drawn for almost a year now. As you can see, it ain't that clean. and i intended it to be that way. It ain't much but given that it's been almost a year since i picked up my pencil, it was ok. Feel free to add comments, even critiques (as long as they're constructive, aa-ight?). Need them to improve. ...hmmm... looking at it now, i do have some picking on about this work: this is the original x-men when they were still teenagers and i think i only got two characters right on terms of rendering: beast and iceman. cyclops should've been a lot thinner (his nickname's "Slim" Summers), same goes for angel and marvel girl.

"Whenever I chance upon our Sunday noontime shows on tv, I felt like I just wanna kill myself. Whether ASAP or SOP, the disgraceful display of talent, or lack there of, plus the regurgitory type of programming stir the living hell out of me more than it amuses. Sadly, the entertainment value of these variety shows is relegated on these neuron-depleting crap:1. THE BIRIT CRAPIn a country where people are overfascinated with ear-shattering vocal prowess, it is no wonder that song number of biritan is such a hit. The further a singer inflicts punishment to her vocal cords, the more mind blowing. The further a singer deprives herself of oxygen, the more fascinating. Regrettably, these generic breed of singers who subject themselves to laryngeal torture have always been regarded as great musical talents. Yet I beg to disagree.2.

Nothing compares. Game friggin’ over. On Sunday, Aug. 3 at the Theatre for the Performing Arts at Planet Hollywood, I watched as hip-hop crew the Philippine All Stars created just such a moment. Before a crowd of approximately 2,000, they rocked, jumped and flipped with unmatched intensity.

To rephrase the title of this entry, ? how much difference can WE make?! I do hope we take some time to ponder on this question and act upon it as well. not just for you or me but for our children.

Taken from http://melquita.multiply.com/photos/album/349. This letter is from the father of Matthew "ChuChu" Samudio, one of thanksgiving and rejoicing. This is for everybody who took the time to pray for them and get the word out about what happened. Read on. "For almost 3 horrifying days, I thought I would never have the courage to look at Chuchu's photos without shedding buckets of tears. Whenever I scan my laptop for photos of him to be used for the flyers we distribute all over Metro Manila; I can't help but to burst into tears; no make it sobs which only provide temporary relief to the agonizing pain I felt every time I think of what could have happened to my precious little boy. Whenever I close my eyes, which have denied me of sleep for 3 days, pictures of my Chuchu would appear, his disarming smile, his funny antics, the way he makes this hand sign and shout "OCK ON" which he actually meant "ROCK ON!" I could still hear him call me "YEYE", his own funny way of calling me "DADDY". T... http://alfredlauzon.multiply.com/journal/item/122/A_Letter_from_a_Grateful_Father_Reunited_with_his_Missing_Son.

A security guard found the boy walking around the Sta. Rosa Commercial Complex in Sta. Rosa, Laguna. He was seen with the same girl who tagged him at the Festival Mall last Tuesday. Jonathan Estema said when he and other security guards accosted the two, the girl ran away and left Samudio. Estema said that Samudio was wearing a new set of clean clothes. Security guards turned over the boy to the Sta. Rosa police, who then alerted counterparts in Alabang. Samudio and the still unidentified girl were earlier reported to have been spotted begging for alms near Festival Mall.

Hope y'all get recharged by reading this and meditating on it. I will extol the LORD  at all times; his praise will always be on my lips. My soul will boast in the LORD ; let the afflicted hear and rejoice. Glorify the LORD with me; let us exalt his name together. I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame. This poor man called, and the LORD heard him; he saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them. Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him. Fear the LORD, you his saints, for those who fear him lack nothing.

There are so many things that can right or wrong depending on the decisions father's make. When fathers: Stay. When fathers stay faithful to their commitments, it produces a stability in their families. Regardless of the setbacks, disappointments, and the failures we may experience, eventually things will turn around if we stay faithful. So many times men can quit right before the breakthrough comes. Obey. Obeying God means we as fathers have to do what we ask our children to do. We tell our children: "You must obey your Mother and me regardless of what you feel like". In the same way we must obey the Lord's commands. When we diligently obey the Lord, the Bible says " ...all these blessings will come upon you and overtake you."(Deut 28:1)<a href="http://alfredlauzon.multiply.com/photos/hi-res/upload/SE9IwgoKCsYAAAKkdyo1"><img style="width: 237px; height: 321px; " class="alignright" src="http://images.alfredlauzon.multiply.com/image/1/photos/upload/300x300/SE9IwgoKCsYAAAKkdyo1/Image008.jpg?et=f4RgVUOY0BCsdo31imI32A&nmid=0" border="0"></a> Pray.
