A bum's return with a CHAIR

For almost ten months, dormancy has been prevalent on this blog, I even thought this blog account has been long deleted. Unfortunately, I'm haven't been bumming for all those months but working like a horse for some construction/real estate company.

I've heard this song a couple of times and I thought somebody has already posted the lyrics online. But to my surprise, Google top result for this song really is not the lyrics, so I've decided to share it for all.

Anyways, here is the comeback post with a lyrics of "Upuan" by Gloc 9 featuring Jeanzell of Zelle

UPUAN
Gloc 9 featuring: Jeanzell of Zelle

Jeazell:
Kayo po na nakaupo
subukan nyo namang tumayo
baka matanaw
at baka matanaw ninyo
ang tunay na kalagayan ko

Gloc:
(ganito kasi un eh)
tao po nandyan po ba kayo sa loob
ng malaking bahay at malawak ng bakuran
mataas na pader pinapaligiran
at nakapilang mga mamahaling sasakyan
mga bantay laging bulong ng bulong
wala namang kasal pero marami ang nakabarong

lumakas man ang ulan ay walang butas ang bubong
mga plato't kutsara na hindi kilala ang tutong
at ang kanin ay 'sing puti ng gatas na nasa kahon
at kahit na hindi pasko sa lamesa ay may hamon
ang sarap siguro manirahan sa bahay na ganyan

sabi pa nila ay dito mo rin matatagpuan
ang tao na nagmamay-ari ng isang upuan
na pag may pagkakatao'y pinag aagawan
kaya naman hindi nya pinakakawalan
kung makikita ko lamang sya
ay aking sisigawan

Jeanzell:
Kayo po na nakaupo
subukan nyo namang tumayo
at baka matanaw
at baka matanaw ninyo
ang tunay na kalagayan ko

Gloc:
mawalang galang na po
sa taong nakaupo
alam nyo bang pagtakal ng bigas namin
ay di puno

ang dingding ng bahay namin
ay pinagtag-tagping yero
sa gabi ay sobrang init
na tumutunaw ng yelo

na di kayang bilihin
pag niligay sa inumin
pinakulung tubig sa
lumang takuring uling-uling

gamit na pangatong
na inanod lamang sa estero
na nagsisilbing kusina
sa umaga ay aking banyo

ang aking ina'y na ma'y
kayamanang isang kaldero
na nagagamit lang
pag ang aking ama ay sumweldo

pero kulang na kulang parin
ulam na tuyo't asin
an sikwenta pesos
sa maghapo'y pagkakasyahin

di ko alam kung talagang maraming harang
o mataas lang ang bakod
o nagbubulag-bulagan lamang po kayo
kahit sa dami ng pera nyo
walang duktor na makapagpapalinaw ng mata nyo
kaya

Jeanzell:
Wag ka masyadong halata
bato bato sa langit
ang matamaa'y wag magalit
bato bato bato sa langit
ang matamaan ay
wag masyadong halata
wag kang masyadong halata

wag kang masyadong halata
wag kang masyadong halata
wag kang masyadong halata...

Jeazell Vocals.... until fade...

Quite political and it represents the true side of politics today. This song applies not only for us Filipinos but as well on places on earth where political corruption become a normal part of leadership than a democratic defect.

Chrome - first google browser

Last tuesday September 2, google launched ist first internet browser to match up with Microsoft's latest release of internet explorer. Rumors also has in chrome will be used with a Android (mobile device developed by google partners). And because Chrome is just beta, it falls short of Google's goal of outwitting the Latest release of Internet Explorer but it manage to perform better that Mozilla Firefox. It also came with major cosmetic difference with Mozilla and IE8, very convinient 'cause the tabs is located in the topmost bar. Maybe because developers focused on barebones of handling javascript which usually eats a lot of computer resources. Chrome has a lot of things to do like being customizable like Firefox and the speed like or better then IE8.

New Beginnings at Triple 8

Well I would keep up with my reputation as a slacker for posting late for the one of the most anticipated day within the year, August 8, 2008. This will be a so much memorable day for me, not because of 2008 Summer Olympics in China or Sharon Cuneta's Concert but because my boss decided that this day would be my first official day in work not as a trainee (do I really need some trainning?) but as a full pledge employee.

Now my days as a bum is doomed, didn't even last a year (*$%#@). After acquiring a bachelor's degree in computers science last March, I ended up as an assistant of the general manager of a construction / developer / real estate firm. Their office has just move from Makati to Cavite. Lucky me, I don’t have to commute very long distances for work. It's just a few miles away; I can even walk to get the office.

My bosses really don't know what to call my position but I feel that my real job description should be A.A.A., yes that's 3 'A's and that would stand for All-Around-Assistant. Basically my tasks for this month are all related to setting up the new office for operation. Like Designing I.D.'s for our employees, calling cards, updating the payroll and expenses statements etc.

So much for the first job and one hell of a week. Everything in the office is chaotic - thanks to their previous assistant whoever that is. Hope to make things in shape so that I could be relieved earlier so I could attend my gym sessions again (crap I think I gaining weight again).

Sure thing my triple 8 day is a very very very lucky day for an ex-bum (ME:-).

Old But its Good (Hope for the Flowers)

What I thought was a children's book that my sister bought is maybe one of the greatest books that I've read up to now. I've forgotten the saying "Don't judge the book by its Cover" when I saw this book and I thought it was one of those corny books that our teachers in preschool used to read to use. Like others, I also thought that this book is a children novel the text is handwritten and there are a lot of doodled drawings. Yellow and black are all the colors that you will see on the cover of Hope for the Flowers written and illustrated by Trina Paulus.

The story started when stripe bursted from the egg and started eating up the leaves where he was born into. As he continue to eat he grew bigger and bigger. One day he stopped eating and was he bored of just eating and growing so climbed down the tree that he born into. He started exploring the world meeting other creatures. He was searching something else in life. Then he saw a group of crawlers crawling towards something. He followed the group and learned that they're aiming to the top of a column that was a pile of pushing and squirming caterpillars.

Not knowing what he might see at the top, still he joined the worms. He though he might find that something that he was looking for. As he climbed up, he learned that nobody in the pile really knew what's at the top and to get further you have to step on someone's face. This is where he met Yellow, the first caterpillar that he ever spoke with into the column. Striped tried to avoid to step to his new found friend but it was inevitable. And when he did, he really felt awful climbed down and apologized. They fell in love they decided to climb down and decided do something like crawl and nibble grass together. They happily lived together as a coupled as the days passes.

Still Stripe couldn't help to think what's at top of that pile he even visits the site regularly. He heard that there was a butterfly at the top for the folks that fell from the top. His curiosity grew and grew until he asked Yellow to give it again a try but she doesn't want to go back to the life again. Stripe left her and for his climb and made her heartsick. She wandered away from everything familiar and one saw a fellow caterpillar hanging upside down. She learned from the fellow that it was the way of becoming a butterfly. So she did what the other caterpillar did.


my favorite line in this book

Stripe did great in his second climb 'cause he was so much focused and determined this time. He reached the top and knew from other caterpillars that there was nothing to see but luckily he saw a yellow butterfly that looked very familiar to him. He somehow knew it was Yellow and on his way down he tried to tell others what's really on the top to most didn't listen. Tired and sad, Stripe crawled off to the old place where Yellow and he had romped and rest for a while. When woke up a flying yellow creature was fanning him with wings of light. The creature guided him to the cocoons and somehow he knew what to do next. Stripe became a butterfly and flew happily ever after with Yellow.

According to HFTF site, the book's inspiration was while the author was sharing comfort with a friend who just lost someone close. Ms. Paulus also believed that a lowly creeping worn can turn into a butterfly is hard to believe but we've actually seen how it's changed so we can also hope for internal transformation. She also believed that "Life is changed, not taken away".

Yellow and Stripe has bee creeping the earth and giving hope almost four decades now. According to Wiki, "Hope for the Flowers is classified as a children's novel when it was published in 1973 by Paulist Press. Ironic 'cause in the cover of the book is it clearly printed "a tale partly about life partly about revolution and lots about hope for adults and others. Kids can read but the lesson that they might only get is caterpillars do become butterflies. It maybe old but it's a good story about love, hope, patience, real revolution, and all about life. Do read "Hope for the Flowers", it might touch your lives
