Here are the new fare rates for Baguio - Pico - Puguis - Motorpool - Ampasit - Swamp route as approved by LTO and DOTC. From the continuous increase of diesel, basic commodities have increased wildly. This new fare rates are rather too high for students and parents. Specially if a student have to ride more than once to reach shcool. Other schools have two separate campuses or a campus stretched to hectares. Where the students have to take a ride not to be late from there classes.

This blog is congratulating Edward Folayang for winning the local UFC as mentioned by TV Patrol World. I had met him as a classmate when I was studying at the University of the Cordillerans (UC) Baguio, were not close, i doubt even if he knows me. I was then taking Education and he was into Criminology adding education units. A university scholar, he had been giving the school and Baguio City (even the Philippines) some recognitions.

I felt silent,
of this visitor's daggering words.
I was caught dumbfounded.
My free flowing brain like the rapids of the river
came to a halt, frozen by a bit**.

I was silent,
rehearsing upright attitudes,
debating with the devil the right way to do.
Laughing myself to a favored sin.
Playing around the outward remark.

i kept silent,
trying desperately to fish out words of defense,
smartly criss crossing in the fastlane a philosopher.
Weighing each earned values.
Making me blank in shame.

I am silent,
Leaving the situation to the churns of the bells.
Caressed my face for another whack of unlearned finesse.
Carefully listening at his head-banging actions.
Hurting myself indefinitely.

Traversing from home to school on a desert day,
Getting nauseous at the dangerous metals
Exhausted by grimy diesel eaters,
On a turtle traffic.

The sound of the familiar twing-twing
Like the strum of a guitar
Relinquished my uneasiness
Anticipating
 an unending texting
On a wild bone-breaking ride.

I held it high when a wavering head
Erratically moving infront of me
Dazed my eyes.

I gave off sheepy eyes and questioning stares
Which no one saw even with stressed movement.
I lowered my glare to continue my stroke-initiating SMS.
When a light passed my sight to discover a dilapidated
Cameraphone on my hand.


*text = SMS.

     This are the balloon flowers I came out with after viewing too many pictures of balloon flowers on the net. This are pretty simple ones. One look at it and you can recreate it. I made flowers because it is the easiest to make. Balloon animal characters are more complicated. But that is the challenge of it.

It starts of with a Will Smith as a drunkard and homeless. An irritated superhero that saves people in danger but because of his clumsiness he is hated by the people for it.

Until the great super hero saved a PR man (most people hate PR people.) That radically changed his image and bend him into the things that never occurred to him.

When he found out that he is not the only super charged human being, he almost died.

I didn't understand why Robert Downey Jr. (Jack Starks) will play a super hero. Sure, he is tough specially during the 90's but (face it) he doesn't look like a super hero, at all. Except that he really look like intelligent and rich.

Jack is smart enough to build his own small radiation/energy source but enough credit should be given to the Doctor that saved his life and in genuinely created a power plant in his chest to keep him alive. (From the machines his company made.)

And the adventure begins, until he said he is Ironman. But why would he fall under the reporter's sarcastic remarks but ended with his secretary.
