LCM

Last week, December 3, Eddieboy called me around 11pm... I ignored it because I'm so sleepy and tired that time... but when i woke up, I remember the missed call that I had last night... that moment, I realized that there is something wrong... Eddieboy didn't do that usually unless it is an emergency...

I fix my self up and prepared my self to got to work in Pasig. Everyone there approached me and asked me if Eddieboy called me or if I heard something from our co-workers... it sends some chills to my spine... because I knew that or what where they talking about...

When I get to the computer, I opened it and went on to my facebook account... there, I searched for my 'ninangs' account and there i saw the messages of her friends... I SMS her instantly and when I received her reply, there I confirmed that his father... my boss... and a good friend of our family passed away.

I gathered all my co-workers and told them that what they we're asking me before is true and it was confirmed. You can see all the sad faces, here some words whispering to one another... some cried, some just wanted to be alone for a moment and some just stared to something...

I served my boss for more than 14 years... there, i knew him bit by bit, he's a kind loving boss, very generous and most of all he treated us like family or one of his real family. He always make sure that everyone is doing well at work when ever he visits the plant, he talked to the supervisors and asked them if they needed some sort of support or if there are any problems... like a father to a family, he never fail to listen to us, know our problems and what we have accomplished for the day.

Now, he was placed near a church... rest in peace.

He battled he's illness like a real man, show us the way to success like a teacher, be there when we need someone - financially or not - he's always there to support us. How can we say goodbye to a boss and a mentor and also a friend... I really don't know... but I find a way or two to let it go... even if it hurts, we have to accept it. Good bye Mister Luis Antonio Cuna Mendoza, thank you for everything... we will miss you.

And yes... i also cried.

Welcome November Rain

It's November once again and it's raining cats and dogs here in the Philippines... as this month enters I also remember the song of Guns n Roses's 'November Rain'... so here you guys, GnR's November Rain music video.

My Top 5 Scary Movies

Hi guys, it's been awhile again since I log in my blog and post something... anyway, it's halloween and I will share  my top 5 (five) movie scarers that I have watched...

At Number...

5) Alfred Hitchcock's 'Psycho' (1960)

This original flick that I've seen on betamax is the first (as far as I have remembered) movie that made me think. How or why? Simple, it's the twist of the story... it made think on how Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins) shows his mother but it seems that his mother is dead and he only made it up on his mind that his mother is still alive and still lectures Norman on whatever he will do in his life.
Anyway, the Bates Motel still gives me the chill whenever I saw it on TV... plus the shadow of Norman's mother. Creepy indeed.

4) The Puppet Master

What if your toy(s) is alive and that toy can kill? There are five (5) puppets in the story namely Blade, Jester, Tunneler, Leech Woman and Pinhead.
I saw this movie on VHS and that day it was way more bigger or larger than a betamax :P
When I saw this movie, I also imagine what if m toys can move like them? Hmmm, I better get He-man and my G.I. Joe's action figure to protect me from the likes of them :P
I have also seen the follow up movies of this and there are more puppets that had been added in the movie(s).
If you like killer toys besides from Chucky then this movie is one that I recommend.

3) The Sixth Sense
This movie really is much more interesting than the other scary or horror movies that I have watched... well, I think we could all agree that we didn't expect that Dr. Malcolm Crowe (Bruce Willis) is already dead and Cole Sear (Haley Joel Osment) know this from the fist time he saw Dr. Crowe. Ow, did I spoil the ending? Hehehe, better see this movie whole.
Anyways, the plot of the story is very well planned and the characters here really act to the fullest to give the audience some chills.

2) The Blair With Project
I think this movie has no really ending for me. It really made me think what really happened on the last act and who is the killer behind this.
From a humble budget to a millions of gross revenue and a gazillion of fanatics this movie is indeed a movie t watch.
It will leave you thinking from the start up to the end...

1) The Ring (Japanese Version)
Of all the scary movies, this is the one that really makes me feel like a child that scares too much after seeing it. Not only me but also my friends are paranoid after seeing this. I really am scared to this movie especially when I saw Sadako's eye, it gives me the hell of the creeps, send chills to my spines and plays with my mind... damn!
So, if your looking for a real scare, watch this... WTF!!! the phone suddenly rings... thank goodness it's for my brother... I really hate this movie :P

Airport Taxi

Last weekend, me and my familia decided to go to a mall... as we have waited on the street for a taxi to come... a yellow taxi just pulled over in front of us.

In my understanding, the yellow taxi cab is an airport taxi. Meaning, that to all local or tourists that arrived from the airport from any terminal there's a yellow taxi for them to provide them a ride to their destination.

Well, of course it's not free... but the good thing is that the yellow taxi cab can be trusted more. Why? Because you are sure that the yellow taxi cab is registered unlike to the 'kolorum' (unregistered) taxis.

By the time you sit or ride the yellow cab, the driver will radio his ride to authorized it to their base. By this, you can assure that you are safe and your worries being trick by the driver. Here in the Philippines, there are some drivers that takes the long way - to add to their plug down - and some may ask you to add some more money or tip him, unlike the driver that we tried (airport taxi), he is more like a gentleman, answering our queries about his taxi and stuff and informing us about their work.

Anyway, the airport yellow taxi cab has a minimum charge, PhP 70.00 is their plug down rate and a PhP 4.00 for the excess kilometer (I think :P) ...

Getting an airport taxi at your area can be rarely seen. Because they need to get a passenger(s) from the airport then convey them to their home destination. When the airport taxi proceeds to the airport again, then the driver can pick up a passenger(s) before he can go to the airport.

Tip: To be sure, always get the taxi's plate number. You can see this also inside the taxi that is painted at the panel of the window door. Send a SMS to your family or friends about the names of the taxi and also the plate number of it. Better be safe than sorry :)
