looks like the DNS poisoning attack is over. kudos to the IT team. :)
another one of the hosts on my favourite morning show left today. this after the departure of two the the senior, "defining" hosts a week earlier. philippine TV is cruel. reminds me of life in this country. hahahaha!
i find it really sad that although our countrymen are actually in mortal danger in lebanon, back to the philippines is the last place they want to be. i heard one of the families of the overseas workers say, "stay there, there is no hope here". i don't quite know how to react to this. part of me wants to say "why don't you head off abroad and work instead of sitting on your ass and waiting for money from your family member?!" then again, there are circumstances in the situation i don't know about, and any judgment would be ill made. judgments as a whole are tricky anyway, in any situation. when you make a judgement, you act without knowing all the facts, using your perspective to fill in the gaps. and while i realise it is important to use your judgment (how else would you get up in the morning?), forming opinions about things you don't know everything about can be rather ill-advised in some situations. i just hope things will be okay.
i'm cooking again, which is cool. i'm realising that apart from building scale models of anime machines (oh, i'll post photos of them sometime, possibly), i can express my creativity in other ways, such as writing for example like what i am doing now. i don't know... i think the urge to create lies at the core of every person, and a lack of a suitable means (and suitable does not always mean proper) of expressing one's creativity can lead one to do things like kill other people, start wars, perpetuate age-old hatreds, and stuff like that.
i'm listening to a song on the radio, and part of the chorus goes "the sun's gonna shine on everything you do." i believe that. they say that the light of truth exposes everything, and it really does. there are no secrets in life. eventually, things come out in the open somehow. and in my life, i've seen enough secrets that were hidden from me, and things that i hid just pop up from out of the ground, like mushrooms.
better to do things in the open, and that would stand up to any scrutiny... especially the scrutiny of your own soul.
just a thought to govern the way you do things on this uncharacteristically sunny day.
:)
yes! another overly parenthetical entry, hahahahah!
