Siya ang unang minahal ko na basketball player. At siya ang magiging huli. I was supposed to post a novel pero baka i-ban ako ni Mark Zuckemberg(tama ba?) LOL!

<span data-jsid="text" style="font-size: small;">My mangki once said, "Binuhay lang talaga sya para pumuntos, bakit ba hindi nila maintindihan yun?" </span><br />
<span data-jsid="text" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span><br />
<span data-jsid="text" style="font-size: small;"><i><b>Who is Mark Caguioa?</b></i> For me, he is <b><i>the epitome of the never-say-die spirit</i></b>. Kung gano ko nirespeto at minahal si <i><b>Living Legend Jawo,</b></i> ganun din ang pagmamahal ko sa kanya for his contributions. He may be a lot of things. <i><b>Mayabang, maangas, mayabang, maangas, mayabang, maangas.</b></i> Wala e. Yan na lang ang masasabi nila kay Mark. And I'm not angry or what. He may be mayabang and maangas. Well, totoo naman. Mayabang sa court, dahil may ipagyayabang naman. Maangas? Naliparan lang yung idol mo harap-harapan, maangas na? Maybe, maybe not. What I love most about Mark Caguioa is his <i><b>passion for basketball.</b></i> You will feel the excitement, the thrill. Dun pa lang, ika nga, sulit na ang bayad mo. Pag naglalaro sya at nagsimulang mag-<i><b>SPARK</b></i>, gusto mong talunin yung distansya nyo at yakapin na lang sya. Especially when <i><b>Ginebra</b></i> is down like 10 pts or so, in just a matter of no more than 2 minutes, lamang na sila. <i><b>Parang walang imposible kay Mark Caguioa.</b></i> Tunay ngang sya ang "spark" ng team, pag nag-init sya, tuloy-tuloy na. </span><br />
<br />
<span data-jsid="text" style="font-size: small;">I can blog about Mark Caguioa the whole day, and all you'll hear from me are good good things about him, really. I'm just glad he's back, healthy and ready to bounce back, fit to grab the crown back. </span><br />

</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">We've been missing Jayjay a lot. I meant, the fastbreak moves, the 3point shots, the assists, the once unstoppable The Fast. But, is <b>Jayjay Helterbrand</b> really history now?</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I've asked my <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/BGK-Jamships-Family/157021784315997">BGK Jamships Family</a> who is Jayjay to them, for them. Here are the answers:</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><a href="http://twitter.com/ianccpancho">@ianccpancho</a> Ginebra's IGNITION.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><a href="http://twitter.com/aprildeguzman">@aprildeguzman</a> He's such an inspiration. Very passionate when it comes to his fam and work. Kung si Mark ang epitome of our Never Say Die spirit, si Jayjay ang epitome of patience and hardwork. From benchwarmer/Bal's supersub days up to now. </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1409634940">Engr. Jamie Halili</a> Jayjay is more than the cute chinito guy in the court. Mahilig ako sa cute e, at first time kong makita yung naka #13 na jersey, naattract na ako. Dumoble pa ng nakita ko na ang husay nya maglaro. Tapos napakabait pa nya maglaro. Jayjay for me is the reason why nainlove ako sa basketball! Consolation talaga na super gwapo sya. Haha. Ang landi landi ng sagot ko. Haha!</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><a href="http://twitter.com/iamclaude24">@iamclaude24</a> Jayjay, is the only reason why 13 is a lucky no. to Ginebra Fans, especially to me. He runs FAST through our hearts, just like his performance in the court. As long as he plays lively in the court, focuses on the sure shots, cheers and encourages his fellow players, he will always be the FAST that a LUCKY 13 can be! :P </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />

I've followed almost every conference. I can say, I breathe and live <b>Ginebra.</b> <b><u><span style="color: red;">It's in my blood, it's in my heart, it's in my system.</span></u></b></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">This conference, the <b>Philippine Basketball Association Philippine Cup</b>, my Ginebra played really <strike>well,</strike> awesome. They've shown the intensity like we've never seen them played like that before. They've showcased the <b>never-say-die spirit </b>like this is the first time they will battle for a league. I am literally running out of words to describe how intensed they played, how emotional they were in the games. </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">I'd like to say my piece.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b style="color: red;">Mark is back.</b> He <strike>really</strike> is back. He may not have the legs and agility of the Mark Caguioa who won the PBA Rookie of the Year award in 2001, but he is as furious.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: red;">Enrico Villanueva.</span></b> I must admit I have belittled this giant many months ago. I thought I would never really learn to appreciate him until he played big roles in the playoffs. I salute this guy for OWNING the boards. </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b style="color: red;">Rudy Hatfield</b> is stronger than ever! Yes, no doubt about that. He may not be as fast as he was in his younger years, but he is not called the H-Bomb for nothing. This man, dominating the rebounds, and this guy's unexpectedly firing shocking 3pointers. YOU. ARE. THE. MAN!</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: red;">Jimbo Aquino,</span></b> rookie-superstar-in-the-making. Whenever I see this young man play, I would always think of Mark Caguioa when he's still in his rookie days. Like Mark, Jimbo would always make quality minutes as soon as he's inside the court. He is just amazing. Mark my word. He will be the UNSTOPPABLE ONE.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b style="color: red;">Mike Cortez. </b>The cool cat. The cat has unleashed superb fiery performance in the playoffs. </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: red;">Eric Menk,</span></b> the Major Pain back in his vintage form. We cannot ask for more. I can say, we can always rely on this big guy. He is not the MAJOR PAIN for nothing, and we know that.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b style="color: red;">Ronald Tubid. </b>The fearless. When the opponent's shooter is just unstoppable, give that to Ronald and he can stop the guy. And he will. Ronald's tight defense is like a real pain in the ass. Even Mark Caguioa said that <b><i>"Mahirap bantay si Ronald, nakakainis sya.."</i></b></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b style="color: red;">JC Intal. </b>Plagued with injury during the eliminations, it didn't stop him from trying to recover as fast as he could so he can contribute to his team. He has always been the rocket, no doubt about that. And young fans going crazy over his dunks and 3pointers. He is just one amazing superstar in the making.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><b style="color: red;">Willie Wilson.</b> He is one guy you can always rely on, I'm telling you. He is the SCRAPPER. Doin decent points, assists, and rebounds for his team. He is always reliable. When he is inside, expect him to do his thing. Very tight defense and quick muscle reflex to always get the ball. </div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">I could perhaps write the whole day for my Ginebra and I will not run out of stories. But this is not over. Just not over yet.

<br />
This is all over the news. New zodiac assignments due to moon's gravitational pull on the planet Earth that caused the planet's position to change in relation to its axis. Thus, making the original star alignment to also change by about a month. Ophiuchus is born.<br />
<br />
According to Minnesota Planetarium Society board member Parke Kunkle, the ancient Babylonians based zodiac signs on the constellations the Sun was "in" on the day a person was born.<br />
<br />
However, the moon's gravitational pull made the Earth wobble around its axis creating a one-month bump in the stars' alignment. <br />
<br />
If you are a person that relies or believe in horoscope, would you agree to this change? How would it affect your views in life?<br />

It's the <b>Hogwarts Express!</b> In this photo, you'll see my brother Dan posed before the Hogwarts Express train in the book <b>Harry Potter</b> series. I fell in love with the book, I fell in love with the movie. <br />

I have always been vocal about my admiration, love and respect for <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Dwyane Wade.</b></span> He is my <b>2nd Michael Jordan.</b> Since he got drafted by <b>Miami Heat </b>until now.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TS5fKCC8GzI/AAAAAAAAABw/sTKxacNyI54/s1600/lbj.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TS5fKCC8GzI/AAAAAAAAABw/sTKxacNyI54/s1600/lbj.jpeg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div>Then there's <b>LeBron James</b>. Bigger. Broader. More aggressive looking. Who is LeBron? And who wouldn't know him? In every major city in the world, you'll see his face with that big check, in <b>NIKE</b> establishments. He entered National Basketball Association <b>(NBA) </b>the same year DWade did. <br />
<br />
Why is LeBron so controversial? Why is he being hated by some? Why is he being discriminated or disparaged? Is it because he has not given his then team <b>Cleveland Cavaliers </b>a championship ring? Is that it? Or is it because of what happened last year when he moved to Miami Heat to join with his buddies Dwyane Wade and <b>Chris Bosh</b>? <br />
<br />
If we can still remember, it caused BIG news, lasted for weeks and even months -- LeBron announced he's leaving for Miami Heat to <b>Dan Gilbert</b>'s surprise. Dan wrote a hate letter, Cavs fans created hate videos, and social networking sites were busy with everything that has got to do with the superstar.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TS5fpNMJRoI/AAAAAAAAAB4/rRBfBmPrGvU/s1600/3.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TS5fpNMJRoI/AAAAAAAAAB4/rRBfBmPrGvU/s1600/3.jpeg" /></a></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TS5fpnqtnqI/AAAAAAAAAB8/bDXOccX3syo/s1600/images.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TS5fpnqtnqI/AAAAAAAAAB8/bDXOccX3syo/s1600/images.jpeg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: large;">I was never a LeBron James fan. Until he moved to Miami Heat. I have developed this respect for this man, not for leaving Cleveland and moving to Miami. But, for things that most of us may have overlooked. He has a heart. He gave up a considerable amount of money for his happiness. He made a choice. He chose to be with his friends, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. He did not retaliate to his haters, at least not directly. He remained humble and kept his silence. </span><br />
<br />
And just a couple of hours ago, he made a noise, not with his big numbers in a Miami Heat game, but because of his controversial tweet. James said in his <a href="http://twitter.com/KingJames">twitter</a> <b><u>“Crazy. Karma is a b----.. Gets you every time. Its not good to wish bad on anybody. God sees everything!” </u></b>The <b>Los Angeles Lakers</b> destroyed the Cleveland Cavaliers in their last match up, <span style="font-size: large;">112-57</span> giving<b> Cavs</b> their <b>11th straight loss</b>. The tweet, for what most of us would think, is for Dan Gilbert who predicted James would take Cleveland's curse to Miami.<br />
<br />

Dang! I will blog about <b>Ginebra!</b> <br />
<br />
Pak! We lost in Game 4 of the <i><span class="data-post"><b>Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) Philippine Cup</b> semifinal series</span></i> vs <b>San Miguel Beermen. </b>How? Why? Who did? Who didn't? It's hard to blog about this one when I have not watched a single game. (I have my reasons, you will think I'm crazy if I tell you what it is.)<br />
<br />
Anyway! I got the game updates through text messages and tweets from my fellow Ginebra fans. Apparently, crucial free throws were wasted and there were a lot of miscues, too. Dang! But I guess that's fine.<br />
<br />
Game 1, we're down at <b>0-1.</b> Game 2, <b>0-2.</b> But I have never lost my composure. I have kept my cool. I prayed hard and harder, "give us this win, please please please.." But nah. I waited, patiently for my prayers to be answered. Then Game 3 came, and we did it! Mark Caguioa (the apple-est of my eyes) was in his furious form. Rudy Hatfield fired unexpected 3-pointers. And the barangay crowd was just amazing.<br />
<br />
Game 4, we didn't make it. We lost by 4 pts. Crucial charities and turnovers. How come I can still go to work? What and why the heck is that? Did i (mature) as a fan? No more rantings, no more bad (hair) days, no more profanity in my facebook status updates? Or, is it my faith that does the wonder? <u><b>Faith to the Never Say Die team I have been following since time immemorial. And hope that everything will turn out in our favor. Now it's just a day before Game 5. Our back against the wall, for the nth time. This will test my faith. This will test my Never Say Die attitude. As what I've been saying since Game 1, it's not over until the series is over. </b></u>ThaniAttitudehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15520168992575780040noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3052437149505146777.post-78289164755276715022011-01-11T18:59:00.000-08:002011-01-11T18:59:14.520-08:00Ryan Reynolds is the Green Lantern<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TS0XV3-xHeI/AAAAAAAAABE/Gy49yY6YJ8A/s1600/green2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TS0XV3-xHeI/AAAAAAAAABE/Gy49yY6YJ8A/s320/green2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

I love Michael Jordan. I am lucky that during his era of greatness in basketball, I am already a fan of the sports. I have memories of Air Jordan defying gravity. I have memories of his Airness scoring as if Chicago Bulls is his. I have memories of MJ23 answering Dikembe Mutombo’s blocks. I have the love for basketball in my heart. It will never fade. Now, I’m all grown-up, I still love basketball and I follow one person that I admire so much. I love his humble beginnings, I love his story. His name is Dwyane Wade. :)ThaniAttitudehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15520168992575780040noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3052437149505146777.post-86342472690223473562011-01-11T11:51:00.000-08:002011-01-11T12:02:26.752-08:00Beef Pepper Rice<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TSy3Sgr0kfI/AAAAAAAAABA/b-t-e3i7UJo/s1600/tumblr_levb0r29tO1qgn9d0o1_500.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="234" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TSy3Sgr0kfI/AAAAAAAAABA/b-t-e3i7UJo/s320/tumblr_levb0r29tO1qgn9d0o1_500.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

I am a fan of native foods. Most especially seafoods. This <em><strong>danggit</strong></em> is very popular for its yummy taste. Dried fish. Very popular from Cebu, a province in the Philippines. This is healthy, it doesn’t absorb too much cooking oil. The <strong>brown rice</strong> is also from the Philippines. As we all know, brown rice is better than the white rice. And the <strong>vinegar or <em>suka</em></strong> in the vernacular is from the Philippines as well. Although I have skin allergies, I can’t help myself when Mama prepares this for dinner.ThaniAttitudehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15520168992575780040noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3052437149505146777.post-12127281587573418322011-01-11T11:43:00.000-08:002011-01-11T12:38:10.227-08:00Baby Niknik<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TSyxhhMnqiI/AAAAAAAAAAw/0uH_XPmyWAw/s1600/tumblr_lev2a7awYW1qgn9d0o1_400.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ysuo8Z_9Diw/TSyxhhMnqiI/AAAAAAAAAAw/0uH_XPmyWAw/s320/tumblr_lev2a7awYW1qgn9d0o1_400.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> Niknik, Nike, Nikey</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Harry Potter Deathly Hallows Part 2. I can’t wait. I just saw this picture when I was googling about Harry Potter, Deathly Hallows, adult Harry, adult Ginny. It’s cute, no, cute is an understatement. It’s awesomeness. Indeed, Harry Potter is forever.<br />

<strong><em>Kamayan sa Palaisdaan sa Laguna</em></strong>. We were supposed to go to Enchanted Kingdom last Sunday but it rained while we’re in SLEX. We thought of going to Tagaytay but <strong>Jill</strong> and <strong>RC</strong> were in sleeveless and shorts, major major fail da ba!!! Haha! So then, we just went to Laguna. There’s this picnic place in Laguna, really cool ambience. There’s this man-made lake with floating picnic huts. Plus, the air is fresh, really. Sadly, we experienced poor service there. We had to wait for over 60 minutes for our food to be served. I will give this resto a zero in a scale of 0-10, 10 being the highest.<br />
