Rico's quotable quotes 2
22 Nov 2006, 18:36
You: are "stocks" really limitless? or are we just trying to be optimistic about the things our minds try to conjure.[?]
we always say we are better and we need someone who equals or is better than us. who would want someone less? but then, if we all think we are far better than anyone, i guess we are better off with pets than with human beings.
acknowledging that people have different gifts to offer is the best way to find a possible mate. but then we always limit oursleves to personal preferences - he has to be fit, good looking, intelligent, successful.
if people had the complete package, we wouldnt be here on earth, we would be in heaven. but then, that's everyone's utopia of relationships...it woulnt be as fun as it is now if that was the case....dont you think?
guess im just trying to say hi.

News from the homefront
We interrupt your regular programming with this special news bulletin:
Rico's grandmother from his father side was checked in to a hospital tuesday last week as she was reportedly suffering from severe stomach aches that prevented her from taking in solid food. As a result, she lost a terrible amount of weight and is jaundiced. Doctors were later asked about her condition and their initial findings were that she was suffering from a stomach disease. A CT scan however disputed this finding and later told his family that she was suffering from a tumor that has been crushing her liver. As of yesterday, she has been immobile and cannot speak full sentences. Rico's family fear that her demise would soon follow. We asked Rico his feelings and thoughts about this news. Has has yet to make a comment regarding the matter.
In other related news, Rico's grandma from his mother's side was found to be suffering from the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. There has been a significant amount of memory loss as well as partial impairment of skilled movements. The family suspects her cornea surgery as the catalyst of this dreadded condition. It may be noted that Rico's grandfather died a year ago due to complications of lung cancer. Rico's family is distraught, but still holding on to whatever miracle that would happen.
In finance, Rico's sister has just recieved news that the housing loan from one of the major local banks finally pushed through. This morning Rico and his sister went to the Mandaluyong City hall to obtain their local tax certificates as a means to complete the requirements of the loan wherein Rico was made co-maker. His sister is reportedly recieving a loan worth P2.2M which shall be used to purchase a 3 storey house and its lot which is located in San Juan. Rico's family is expeted to make a homecomming to his hometown before the end of the year.
Still in finance and business, Rico recieved a raise of 15% from his current income, a move which was unexpected from his boss. Rico suspects that his boss might be thinking that rico is quitting his current post and is looking for greener pasteurs. What Rico's boss does not know is that he does not have any plans to do so. But despite the increase, Rico is still unhappy as he thinks that he has been doing a lousy job as the company's business development head and copywriter. Rico is hoping that the next year would bring better prospects for profficency and effectivity in the workplace, something that his present employment truly deserve.
In sports and fitness, Rico has been actively attending group x clases, particularly body jam and hiphop. Rico has been doing exceptionally well as a dancer that he is considering to join a hiphop competion should his health club decide to put up one. Whether the event will take place or not is still to be determined. He however should focus on building his mass and ganing weight as he has been doing the same workout program for more than 2 months now. A close friend noted that he also should get enough sleep and cut down on night outs and meet ups if he wishes to make changes in his body.
Gossip news now, who is this guy reportedly linked to Rico? Sources tells us that the guy is a big Neil Gaiman fan. They initially met during a swap meet and has been spotted at a Mandaluyong mall to catch a flick the following week. No official word has been released about this incident yet.
And that is the latest at this hour. Thank you for joining us.

Photographs
I am a photographer.
Well, at least im learning to become a photographer.
Images frozen in time forever immortalized. A recollection, a memmory, an idea. As mundane as everyday ordinary life or as grand and ambitious as any hollywood movie. Photographs have revolutionized the way we view life, the way we appreciate art. It documents historical moments or it can provoke your senses. Nothing is as fascinating and moving.
I loved looking at photographs and thought that someday, i will be able to capture anything that amuses and inspires me. Keep it with me and serve as my muse, and my jester whenever the need comes. I have wondered at mavelously composed photographs in fashion magazines. I worshiped exquisite portraits. I fell for intimate photos that reflects life as it happens. I wanted so badly to be a photographer. So badly, that i told the universe about it.
The universe answered. One day, i found myself attending a basic photography class somewhere in Makati, courtesy of the celestial being also known as my boss. He knew i wanted to learn photography, so in a snap, he paid for my classes. In 5 days, i learned the basics of digital photography. And so far, i have been applying what i learned from my teacher. He is one of the country's known lensmen. But my boss didnt like him because he looked like a troll.
The universe didn't stop answering my desires. My boss purchased a Canon D20 camera, to replace the irrepairable Nikon D70 the office had before. I was on the verge of something...finally i am becomming a photographer.
But not quite yet.
I still have much to learn, much to do, not to mention much to purchase! Lighting sets, bulbs, light meters, reflectors, more schooling and learning. I am once again shouting out to the universe...please let me be the photographer i want to be. I do hope that the universe will listen to me and answer me once again.
On my photo album, you'll find some of the photos i took...mostly of Makati buildings. I will be posting more photos over the course of time and, rest assured, i will not stop on taking just photos of inanimate objects. For I long to be involved in fashion and portrature...hopefully soon you'll see some of them here.

While listening to Atomic Kitten’s cover of Eternal Flame, I felt a huge surge of unexplainable emotions. I feel low, well maybe because I feel a little bit under the weather. But generally, I just feel tired. Actually I am tired of a lot of things – work and family figures prominently. But what bothers me most is how disagreeable I can become as a person.
I find myself driving people away most of the time. There’s a certain frustration that fuels this unconscious act to shoo people away from me. Am I just generally mad at the world or am I just lonely?
Why do we crave for companionship? Why do we seek friendship? Why do we need validation in our lives? Am I overlooking the fact that there are actual people that can provide me these – my family and my closest friends??

So, what does a 26 year old single male who works as a copywriter and business development head do to get rid of all the craziness arround him? Create a blog, in fact, something better than a blog - a Live Space.
Its the start of a new era. I am claiming my space in the world wide web. And hopefully, my this will resonate as a shining beacon to those who has lost faith...okay now im talking crap.
But seriously, this endeavor hopes to seal my status as a chronicler of life, its meaning and the lessons that we all should learn. Im hoping that you, the privileged friend who is reading my space now, would learn who i really am.
Good luck.
