I'll be 58 one day but I won't even be half as kikay as my Dad, case closed.

Dad's on his second day at the ICU. He had a hard time breathing and his cardio says he has this inflamed part on the left side of his heart. Scary. The good thing about it is it can be easily treated. He just had to undergo ICU because his vitals had to be observed and studied for the next 48 hours.

I went to visit him yesterday. I had no idea visiting hours in the ICU were super limited. Like we are only given a couple of hours to visit my Dad and that's it.

I got to talk to him for less than an hour, and I was just happy to see him recovering so quickly. He cried when he told me he can feel his system getting better and better every minute under treatment. And it is obvious, coz the moment I went inside the ICU to see him, he looked really handsome and peaceful. The only thing he complained about was the fact that he wasnt allowed to take a shower. He's the ultimate kikay in the family. I'll be 58 one day but I won't even be half as kikay as my Dad, case closed.

Will keep you posted...

Change


Guys4men joins Planet Romeo...

You like? I dont... And the banner sucks. These guys look like frogs. And then I'm supposed to wait 6 more hours before the site maintainance gets done before I get to have a normal g4m life.

I'm not so super sure if it's connected with the ongoing recession, but I have noticed even the most popular websites are converging. If not, they're changing looks and layouts.

For the past couple of weeks I have been painstakingly adjusting to the new look for Facebook. Change is good, but THIS change is totally crap. I want the old facebook back. Simple is always better. I get easily bored with too much crap.

Vintage Pics






It's always a special treat to be able to have the chance to view old pictures of you and your friends, and reminisce the good old days. I have not been able to see these pics coz I've had them on a hidden on a folder and I forgot that I had these files. To top it off all off, I haven't had the chance to use my old PC coz I already transfered all my files to my laptop. Or so I thought.


I was viewing some old pics and I decided to upload some of them on facebook. I was amazed when I took a glimpse of the FB photo-uploader when there were some folders that weren't really shown on normal view, so I immediately got to recall that indeed there were some hidden picture folders.


I spent almost the whole day laughing at all my old pictures. Pictures of last year, picture of my ex lovers, pictures of vacations that I could barely remember, pictures of clothes I once wore. It's just priceless... Vintage Keith is hilarious. As in over the top.

Amazing Week--- Amazing Grace

Last week was hell week. And this week’s gonna be the same--- worse even. I have my targets set, and I have tons of meetings to attend to that my corpo calendar looks like an over-decorated Christmas Tree. If my calendar were a person, it would be Tessa Prieto Valdez.


Oh well it’s better than not having anything to do anything at all. And besides, I’m starting to get so addicted to running in between gates and beating deadlines, it gives me the rush. Like for the first time in so many months I’m starting to feel alive again. I find myself thinking again.


By the way, this rendition of Amazing Grace by Yolanda Adams is just perfection.


What If?


As you grow older you’ll realize that life is not at all fair.



No matter how hard you try, no matter how hard you pray for things to happen, some things aren’t just meant to be yours.

And it’s not because you didn’t try hard enough. It’s not because you didn’t believe on it 100%. It’s just not destined to be. Like Slumdog Millionaire, things are written. You’re unable to achieve some things because it’s not yours—it's written on somebody else’s book of destiny.



But what if I try too hard--- pray too hard that God Himself would change His mind and change things for your benefit? What if you wish on something so hard that the floodgates of heaven would change course?



What if?

Random Thoughts At Work


Have you ever tried waking up one morning realizing your lover’s you-know is pointing right at your face like “hoy, hold-up ito!”?

How’re you supposed to react?

Hahhaha. Just a thought.

This Week




The Daylight Saving Time Season and that would mean that I will be adjusting my sleep hours one hour back. Instead of 10PM, I would have to report to work at 9PM. I hate adjusting schedules, eben if it means just an hour difference from my normal routine. My body's not so used to being exposed to abrupt changes, I have this weird biological way of overreacting from stimulus that I usually end up getting sick or having tantrums for as long as I'm still adjusting.

I guess my officemates are gonna have to deal with that withinthe next couple of months, hehehe. I suggest you don't come into contact within 2 feet radius or Keith's gonna go all Whitney on you. :)


Anyways, I love the twists for AI this year, and boy am I glad to see Megan in the Top 13. There were some great ones especially in the third batch that did not make it top the cut, but I should say this is a pretty good Top 13.

I have my top 5 set, but I guess it's still too early to bet.

I heart Adam Lambert.

A Love Letter to John Legend


I didn't care much about Rihanna or Chris Brown last year.

Or Mariah Carey wayback when I was still in college.


But when I knew John Legend's gonna come to Manila I jumped out of my seat coz damn, it's simply the best thing that could ever happen to the Philippine concert stage.


I just have one super big concern: why is filing for a vacation leave as impossible as gay men getting pregnant? For a corpo-slave like me, having a leave approved is like winning the lottery, and I mean it.


So there--- I guess it's just not the right time. But hell John, if you get to read this post, let me tell you once and for all that I am your biggest fan here in Pinas and I'm serious as shit when I say that. Seriously.


Seriously.
