Philippine Vehicle Innovation

Beng — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 16:40:19 +0000

Last Friday, on our way to Ulm…while flipping Auto Bild magazine, I found a picture which looks so familiar to me. The image was featured under Leserfoto¹ column. Underneath was written “Please count: One (!) bicycle with twelve (!) passengers discovered by our reader Dennis Schoof in Manila (Philippines)”.

I want to ride a bicycle…I want to ride a bike.

I can imagine how amused the photographer was as he saw it. O siguro laking mangha niya nang makita niya ito dahil walang ganyang sasakyan dito sa Germany. It can’t be possible too dahil hindi ito lulusot sa TÜV (Technische Überwachungs Verein) ².

Hehehe, hindi lang nila alam tayong mga Pilipino ay super innovative in different fields. But let us stick to the topic “vehicle innovation”.

What about this one here? Well I think the image below is very common to us. Yon bang may isa o dalawang taong aangkas sa motorsiklo. But you know, in the most outback part of Butuan or maybe some parts of other provinces, where jeepneys only travel once a day…a single motorbike as public transportation is a hit for locals and day-trippers.

Get your motor runnin’ head out on the highway, lookin’ for adventure, and whatever comes our way…

Last but not least, this is something you might have not seen yet. A skylab. Or sky love? I am not really sure of the name, but what the heck. I saw this one on our way to Butuan City last May 2008. I was wondering how passengers got on to it.

The driver needs or requires great balancing act. Di ba? Haven’t experienced riding a vehicle such as this one yet. But I think I’d rather walk than catch a ride on a Skylab. Not because I am maarte, pero natatakot ako na baka ito ay bumalintong. Paano nalang ang aking high heel shoes (charing), my false eyelashes, my whatevah? Ay basta’t akoy maglalakad nalang.

O, anong say niyo sa mga sasakyan sa probinsiya???

Journey To The Past

Bye Bye 2008 Hello 2009

Beng — Sat, 03 Jan 2009 14:06:11 +0000

Happy New Year to all of you earthlings! I hope your new year has gotten off to a great start. We had a mellow “yelo” New Year’s eve celebration this year. MELLOW – pleasant, relax. YELO¹ (tagalog) – bitterly cold; freezing: an icy day. We celebrated at home, we had some great food, and sang Karaoke with the kids while waiting for midnight. At midnight we had nice firework and drank champagne. Kathleen and Ivan had fun shooting fireworks while Gillian was sulking because he was only allowed to watch and not to shoot. Hubby, Gillian and I didn’t stayed long outside because it was so freaking cold. Imagine ba naman, 14 degrees centigrade below freezing point ang temperature noh. Ngatog ang Tita Poorshya niyo…buset na winter, miss ko tuloy ang Pilipinas.

Anyways, the new year for me and hubby began with a lot of work. Yes it was a holiday, but our clinic was open due to some emergency cases. Our life is now consisted of work and series of more work. Oy, don’t get me wrong ha? I am not complaining…it is just that even if we are at home, may mga pasyenteng pumupunta sa bahay para magpagamot. Yan ang buhay country doctor…always on the run to save life and cure sick people. It’s not bad at all…for we take it as a challenge and yes it is also an opportunity to earn more money. Money is not everything but we invested a lot, and so we must work hard in order to get it back. Kaya nga si Tita Poorshya niyo ay nag bade goodbye na sa web designing to concentrate on her present career.

Hehehe, from web designer to a nurse! Nurse like Florence Nightingale? Hehehe, I am far from that but I am on my way to become one. Nightingale worked hard to educate herself in the art and science of nursing, and that is what I am doing now. Hubby suggested I should take nursing continuing education. But as of the moment, kontento na muna akong mag practice sa clinic mismo. Hindi ko pa kasi gaanong feel ang trabahong ito.

Well, well…life is full of surprises, changes and learning. Not long ago, I took web design continuing education. There I learned PHP, CSS, HTML, XHTML, JAVASCRIPT, PHOTOSHOP, ILLUSTRATOR and etc. Ito naman ang pinag-aaralan ko ngayon: Ultrasound, ECG, Injection (hypodermic and muscle injection), Infusion, blood sedimentation and all medical administrative work. Learning the first two and of course administrative task were quite simple, but all the rest simply made me sweat blood. One unforgettable experience is drawing blood, and my first victim was Kathleen. When I saw hubby took patient’s blood, it seemed like an easy job. But when I hold the syringe on my hand, the feeling was completely different. Besides, Kathleen’s veins were so hard to detect and making me so worried that my lousy skill would hurt her. But luckily hubby was standing at my side and gave me guidance and I successfully made it. Hay naku, it looks like I need more time before I could master this job…

Self Assessment

Beng — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 16:50:21 +0000

Walang magawa,walang maisip kong ano ang isulat kaya tuloy ako napadpad sa kong saat-saang area nang internet. Until I googled about personality evaluation or self assessment. Wala lang, gusto ko lang malaman kong ano ako (hehehe). Di ba’t minsan, lalo na’t bored or walang magawa. We do sit back and wonder why the people around us get ahead, while our lifestyle seems to repeatedly spiral down the drain? We sometimes also search for the approval of others, doubting our own abilities.

I recently asked the question to myself, what am I as a person? Siyempre hindi ko masagot ang tanong ko, so I tried finding something like the title above. And here is what I found. It’s a quiz. In order to evaluate yourself, you have to choose the appropriate answer na tugma sa iyo. Then after that, you have to score your own quiz.

Add the total number of points.

OVER 60 POINTS:
Others see you as some one they should ” handle with care.” You are seen as
vain, self-centered, and extremely dominant. Others may admire you and wish
they could be more like you, but they don’t always trust you and hesitate to
become too deeply involved with you.

FROM 51 TO 60 POINTS:
Your friends see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive
personality; a natural leader, quick to make decisions (though not always the
right ones). They see you as a bold and venturesome, someone who will try
anything-well, almost anything-once; someone who takes a chance and enjoys an
adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the excitement you
radiate.

FROM 41 TO 50 POINTS:
Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, and always interesting;
someone who is constantly the center of attention, but sufficiently
well-balanced not to let it go to your head. They see you also as kind,
considerate, and understanding; someone who will cheer them up and help them
out.

FROM 31 TO 40 POINTS:
Other people see you as sensible, cautious, careful, and practical. They see
you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friend
too quickly or too easily, but someone who is extremely loyal to the friends
you do make and who expects the same loyalty in return. Those who really get
to know you realize that it takes a lot to shake you trust in your friends,
but, equally, that it takes you a long time to get over it if that trust is
shaken.

FROM 21 TO 30 POINTS:
Your friends see you as painstaking, perhaps little fussy at times. They see
you as very, very cautious and extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder.
It would really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the
spur the of moment. They expect you to examine everything carefully from
every side and then, usually decide against it. They think this reaction on
your part is caused partly by your carefully nature and partly by laziness.

UNDER 21 POINTS:
People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive, someone needs to be looked
after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions and who doesn’t
want to get involved with anyone or anything. They see you as a worrier, who
sees problems that don’t exist. Some people think your are boring. Only the
people who know you well know that you aren’t. The trouble is that you don’t
let very many people get close to you.

The Schizophrenia

Beng — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 04:17:24 +0000

What is Schizophrenia? According to Wikipedia – Schizophrenia from the Greek roots schizein (“to split”) and phren – (“mind”), is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a mental illness characterized by impairments in the perception or expression of reality, most commonly manifesting as auditory hallucinations, paranoid or bizarre delusions or disorganized speech and thinking in the context of significant social or occupational dysfunction. Onset of symptoms typically occurs in young adulthood,[1] with approximately 0.4–0.6%[2][3] of the population affected. Diagnosis is based on the patient’s self-reported experiences and observed behavior. No laboratory test for schizophrenia currently exists.[4]

Studies suggest that genetics, early environment, neurobiology and psychological and social processes are important contributory factors. Current psychiatric research is focused on the role of neurobiology, but no single organic cause has been found. Due to the many possible combinations of symptoms, there is debate about whether the diagnosis represents a single disorder or a number of discrete syndromes. For this reason, Eugen Bleuler termed the disease the schizophrenias (plural) when he coined the name. Despite its etymology, schizophrenia is not synonymous with dissociative identity disorder, previously known as multiple personality disorder or split personality; in popular culture the two are often confused.

Increased dopaminergic activity in the mesolimbic pathway of the brain is a consistent finding. The mainstay of treatment is pharmacotherapy with antipsychotic medications; these primarily work by suppressing dopamine activity. Dosages of antipsychotics are generally lower than in the early decades of their use. Psychotherapy, vocational and social rehabilitation are also important. In more serious cases—where there is risk to self and others—involuntary hospitalization may be necessary, though hospital stays are less frequent and for shorter periods than they were in previous years.[5]

The disorder is primarily thought to affect cognition, but it also usually contributes to chronic problems with behavior and emotion. People diagnosed with schizophrenia are likely to be diagnosed with comorbid conditions, including clinical depression and anxiety disorders;[6] the lifetime prevalence of substance abuse is typically around 40%. Social problems, such as long-term unemployment, poverty and homelessness, are common and life expectancy is decreased; the average life expectancy of people with the disorder is 10 to 12 years less than those without, owing to increased physical health problems and a high suicide rate.

How does a crazy person looks like? Please see image below.

Hey, crazy dirty old man. If you think you can stop us from telling the world you are a shammer. You are absolutely wrong!

You said:

You’ll soon realise (if you have an ounce of common sense) that you are doing more harm than good.

The only thing I can say is that – you are saying that indirectly to yourself.

Pinay Scandal II – At Its Finest

Beng — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 01:43:46 +0000

What a big scandal!!! An unknown hot (kuno) Pilipina photographer joined a socialite’s party in Würzburg, Germany last Wednesday. She was caught eating and drinking instead of doing her appointed work. The said photographer got drunk at the said party and all the shots she made were real bad (BAD dahil puro lalakwe lang ang kinunan).

The organizer didn’t consider a lawsuit because they knew it wouldn’t fix anything. They simply kicked her out kaya naging palaboy-laboy ito sa lansangan for a few days…

…at papose pose na parang engot na pasmadong di natunawan.

The other day, she tried to work as “tindira” sa isang christmas fair. Pero nasisanti din kaagad dahil nakipag-away ito sa mga customer.

On that same day, naisipan niyang makisali sa mga street musician. Tega bantay siya sa box na pinaglalagyan ng kitang pera.

Ang bruhang litratistang Pinay ay hindi nakapigil sa tukso…itinakbo niya ang kita ng mga musician. Dahil sa katabaan…hindi ito nakatakbo ng malayo kaya ito ay nadakip din kaagad ng mga polisiya.

Naka sunglass (siguro dahil sa hiya) kahit walang araw itong dinala sa city pound (puno ang jail eh) ng ciudad na kinaganapan ng naturang krimen.

Ito po ang pinakabagong kalukringan na hatid sa inyo ni Ms. Lucresia de Natunawan!

Her Majesty Queen Reynz Elena de Balbacua partied away in Philadelphia earlier this month and made headlines when she shed her crown down and danced the night away with Mister Shokoy Shayonery. Ako ang paparazzi na nakahuli sa dalawang mag ewan.

I have tried to interview the Queen of all the queen, kaya lang wala itong naisagot sa mga tanong ko. She only looked at me and grinned and wave her hand. Para bagang gusto niyang bigkasin na “natarutot ko na siya”. Yon nga ba ang mensahe? Reyna Elena de Balbacua…ikaw lang ang makakasagot sa hiwagang ito!!!

Panawagan At Kaunting Paalala

Beng — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 13:45:10 +0000

I am calling the attention of some Pinays in FR (grubierF) para sa inyo ito.

Bago ko simulan ang panawagan at paalalang ito, gusto kong malaman ninyo na ito ay hindi ko gawa-gawa lamang at bukod sa lahat lalong hindi ko kagustuhang isulat ang magiging laman nito. Kong hindi dahil sa pakiusap ng isang dalagitang anak ng tega FR na nagpadala sa akin ng mensahe sa Friendster account ko, hindi mabubuo ang entry na ito.

Sumakit ang ulo ko kagabi sa kakaisip kong nararapat bang gawin itong balak kong gawin o hindi. Dahil ang magiging labas kasi, ay para akong nanghihimasok sa buhay ng may buhay. Nang mabasa ko ang sulat ng dalagita, ang reaction ko kaagad ay: “hmn, pakialam ko sa inyo”. Sinagot ko nga siya pero hindi talaga dibdiban dahil ayaw ko ngang makialam. Sabi ko sa kanya: Nun ja, lass mir bitte Zeit. Ich werde mal sehen was ich tun kann. “Please give me time. I will see what I can do”. Ayaw kong makialam pero hindi ko rin matiis at hindi kaya ng aking budhi na i-turn down siya. Oo nga, kong ang unang impresyon ang pagbabasihan, parang nagsusumbong lang ang naturang bata. But when I analyzed the content of her message, I clearly see that she is crying for help.

Nagmakaawa ito sa akin na kausapin ko raw ang kanyang inang “medyo” (subtly expressed) naligaw sa landas. Si nanay niyang nalulong sa barkada, mahjong, disco at ~~kahahanap ng ibang fafa~~. Kaya daw silang magkapatid ay tuluyan ng napabayaan. Silang magkapatid din ang malubhang nagdurusa sa pangongotya ng kanilang mga classmates at mga batang kapitbahay. Dahil sa mga milagrong pinaggagawa ng kanilang ina. Inang halos hindi na umuuwi ng bahay at makikita nalang daw nila sa city na may kasamang Adam na sobrang bata sa kanya. Si Adam daw ay isa ding banyaga dito sa Alemanya, walang trabaho at wala pang papel kaya si nanay ang sumusuporta.

Oh mein Gott kind, was soll nur mit dir machen huh? Habt bitte keine Angst, ich werde dein Name nicht verraten. Auf keinen fall!

Well, posting this issue here might not be the right solution. Siguro iisipin niyo na gusto kong ipahiya ang tao. Nope I don’t want to disgrace her or them, no need, dahil ginawa na niya/nila ito mismo sa sarili niya/nila. Gusto ko lang ipaabot sa madla para mabasa din ito ng ibang ina na nawala rin sa landas.

Ako ay nananawagan sa inyo mga NANAY na tega FR at hindi tega FR na medyo ang takbo ng buhay ay kahawig diyan sa isa (dalawa o tatlo). Ano mang milagro ang inyong gagawin wala akong pakialam. On behalf of your children hiling ko lang, huwag niyo namang kalimutan na meron kayong malaking pananagutan sa inyong mga anak. Sila ang unang naaapektohan, sila ang nagdurusa at nasaksaktan sa mga kabalbalang inyong pinaggagawa. Bigyan niyo naman ng galang ang kanilang pagkatao. Magwala na kayo kong gusto niyo pero hoy, bear in mind you have growing kids! Parang sodom and gomorrah na daw ang lagay niyo diyan?

Ako ay nagbabakasakaling na may kaunti pang tino natira sa isipan niyo. Tandaan niyo ito, nakasalalay sa inyo INA ang kinabukasan ng mga bata. Kayo INA ang dapat sanang magiging magandang halimbawa ng inyong mga anak. Mag isip-isip kayo habang may natira pang pagmamahal ang mga anak niyo sa inyo. Laging huli ang pagsisisi ika nga. Kaya bago tuluyang mawala sa iyo/inyo ang lahat…idilat niyo na ang inyong mga mata.

ICH APPELIERE HIERMIT AN EURE VERNUNFT, WACH ENDLICH AUF!!!

What A Whiner

Beng — Sat, 18 Aug 2007 19:39:58 +0000

I can understand if some people will say I am such a whiner, but don’t worry, I will not object to that. I really became a grumbler during the last few months. It is embarrassing but I just can’t help it. Well, I’m at menopausing age now so I guess this is the reason why I’m soooo moody. Whoa, how horrible! This is the moment I feared the whole time, but…it’s just the way it is.

Oh oh, now I should learn how to cope with my mood swings if I don’t want to become a witch one day with those moles on the nose.
