Getting Married..

...at the end of the day, we can not deny the fact that we really long for someone whom we are going to spend the rest of our lives--our pair. I just came across this line and I was really touched when i read it:

"I am your equal, your partner and your friend. And though at times I may wear the face of an enemy, never forget the love I have for you. For that love leads me by the hand, in all my decisions that concerns you. I am your twin flame, and am completed only in you, and through you. And as we face the future, and the passing of time and age, I hope to be beside you still when you breathe your very last – as your equal, your partner and your friend."

Someday, I wish to recite this line, in front of a priest, in front of that very special person who would also be willing to spend the rest of h** life with me..

Tacloban, Yes to HUC?

Tacloban City is now facing a very tough question. The issue of converting Tacloban City from a component city to a highly urbanized city has been the talk of the town in the past weeks. But the real question here is, is Tacloban City now ready to become a highly urbanized city? What will the Taclobanons benefit once Tacloban City finally gets its independence from the Province of Leyte?

I am from a town outside Tacloban City but I can not stay away from the talks about Tacloban City finally being named as a Philippines Newest Highly Urbanized City. The Local Government of the City of Tacloban is promoting this conversion and is still on its massive campaign informing every Taclobanon the benefits of a highly urbanized city. A plebiscite is scheduled on December 6, 2008 where the people will vote whether they are in favor of converting Tacloban City into a highly urbanized City.

Politicians and organizations in the City and in the province have made their stand on the issue. Some of them are pro while others are cons. Among the most popular persons opposing the City Government’s move to convert Tacloban City into an HUC are the Governor of the Province of Leyte and the rest of the members of the provincial government. This is also a reason why people start to ask why is the provincial government opposing the move. It is known to everyone in the province that the Romualdez’ and the Petilla’s have this long time political rivalry. Could it be a political reason why the province is in strong opposition to Tacloban’s dream of being named as an HUC or are there things that are still to be considered before Tacloban steps ahead?

But I guess before every Taclobanon should vote, it won’t take much time if they will ask first the people who know better than them what are its advantages and disadvantages. What will a Taclobanon get if he says yes and what will he loose if he says no? We better think twice…

Here is Tacloban City--soon to be a Highly Urbanized City

The San Juanico Bridge connecting Leyte and Samar Islands

The Mc Arthur Shrine

The Provincial Capitol who once became the center of the Philippine Government

The Giant Christmas Tree built by the City Government at the Rizal Park last Year. At the Back is the Sto. Nino Church, the home of Sto. Nino de Tacloban.

And last is the Sto. Nino Shrine along Real Street. This Heritage Museum houses antiques and some clothes, shoes and other personal things owned by former First Lady Imelda Marcos.

Finding The Way

I wont deny the fact that I am really very busy these days. I'm few months away from finally receiving my college degree. We are still on the process of constructing our Project Design...our final requirement that dictates our fate. I know one of these days we are going to enter a point on our studies where we have to spend sleepless nights finishing our project...

Sure enough, ECE is the toughest course in EVSU..I'm saying this not because I'm taking up ECE and I don't have any idea on what the hell the other students of my beloved university are experiencing right now but with due respect to all of them, it is very clear who among the students are seen carrying heavy loads...yet people also see us excelling on academics (char!). You can ask any Engineering instructor or even Mathematics Instructors from the CAS if you want some testimonies...

But my point here is, I'm glad that despite the fact that I'm very busy this days, I still have time to unwind and write down here the things that troubles my mind. Hopefully my friends will be able to read this and I'm pretty sure they'll be very happy to see that I've found a way out of my stressful life. (Huhu I don't have a lovelife--I've got no one to pamper me...to listen to me and take care of me.)
