Hi guys, I just want to share the experience we had with this guy. Indeed i can call it “a day”…
Meron kaming “raket” sa Crowne Plaza Hotel sa Ortigas, tabi ng Robinson’s Galleria. It was a very stressful day. Somehow na-overcome namin. Sobrang nakakapagod…
Uwian time na. Around 6:30pm, sa main entrance ng hotel. Ang hirap maghanap ng masasakyang taxi. Although maraming taxi sa daan, dala na rin ng sobrang traffic at rush hour, karamihan kokontratahin ka. Taytay ang way nmin from Ortigas. After an hour and a half finally nakahanap kami na willing maghatid ng pa-metro lng ang charge then sabi q dadagdagan nlng namin. Madami kami dalang gamit pero 2 lng kami na sasakay. Nakarating kami sa bahay, nagulat aq sa metro ng taxi. From Crowne Plaza Ortigas hanggang bayan ng Taytay P163.00 lng ang metro given na natrapik at halos nakatulog na kami sa bandang Ever Ortigas. Dinoble q nlng yung bayad sa kanya. Pagkababa q ng taxi sabi q kay Hero, “Pare pakibaba na lahat ng gamit magpapapalit lang aq ng barya”. Wala kasing barya si manong. Pagbalik q naibaba nya na “daw” lahat ng gamit. Dala rin cguro ng pagod indi nmin namalayan na may naiwan pala. Nakaalis na yung taxi nung malaman nmin. Naiwan sa taxi yung BAG.. na ang laman ay laptop at P5000 cash..
Indi nmin nakuha yung plate number or anything sa taxi dahil din sa pagod at kagustuhan na lng nmin makauwi. Then naalala q, sa Crowne Plaza kami sumakay, bka nakuha ng security yung plaka ng taxi. Tawag agad aq sa Crowne Plaza. Sabi sakin titignan yung record, twag aq after 5 minutes. After 5 minutes. Binigay saking yung plate number at pati cellphone number nung driver! Nagulat aq. Bumilib aq sa security ng hotel na yun.
Tinawagan q agad yung driver. Pagkasagot nya, sabi q “Kami pla yung hinatid nyo ng Taytay kanina lng..” indi pa aq tapos magsalita sabi nya sakin, “ay oo sir may naiwan kayong bag. Sinubukan qng bumalik sa inyo, ndi q na matandaan yung lugar narito na aq sa Recto”. Sabi q sir bka pwedeng makuha q yung bag kasi importante yung laman. Indi q sinabi kung ano even though alam q na pwede nyang tignan yung laman. Sabi nya ibabalik na nya sana sa Crowne Plaza since indi nya alam kung anung ggwin dun. Sabi q magkita nlng kami dun para makuha q. After a while nagtxt sya. “Sir gs2 mo sa junction nlng tayu magkita para ndi kana mahirapan..” Nahiya aq at the same time medyo nagtaka dhil mapapalyo pa sya para lng indi aq mahirapan. Effort tlga sya. Sinabi q nlng na pwede po mas malapit with doubt kung magpapakita ba sya or indi. Mahirap magtiwala agad. Sinama q si Hero, punta kami ng junction 7-11, sabi q sa driver dun kami magkita. Indi sya nagreply. Pero after a few minutes, bigla syang dumating at nakangiti pa sa amin. Nawala stress nmin. Naibalik yung laptop ng maayus, pati yung pera na walang bawas at hindi nagalaw.
Para sa akin napakalaking bagay ng effort na ginawa nya, kung tutuusin pera na yun may gamit pa. Binibgyan q sya ng pera para sa abala ayaw nyang tanggapin. Pero pinilit q pa din iabot. Nakakatuwang naranasan q yung ganto. May mga ganitong tao pa pala. Para sa akin saludo aq at ndi lahat ng taxi driver may kalokohan. Salamat Sir! Kudos din Crowne Plaza Security para sa kumpletong detalye ng mga taxing sinasakyan ng mga guests nyo.
MAXIMO ATON O.L.A. Taxi with Plate number TYZ 619.
Kahit sa pamamagitan lng ng Facebook, gs2 qng ipaabot ang lubos na pasasalamat q. Maliit na bagay man ang post na to sana ng dahil dito makilala ka ng marami.
no, i don’t have problems with the gay couple and the interracial couple but that girl in love with the frog? yes, Valentine’s day is marketing but Google should not promote that. come on, interspecies couple? it’s bestiality and i am disturbed.
also, now we know what boys do to get girls attention and of course, they GOOGLE it. i mean, why would the guy throw a helmet at a girl? kidding aside, this goes to show that the way to get a girl is by sincerely showing interests in the things she loves.
i was actually supposed to be hibernating in some deep burrow but hey, it’s not yet late to greet everybody a Happy Valentines Day. have a good one.
help:
“Kagabi, After I came from an office somewhere in Ayala-Paseo De Roxas, dumaan ako sa underpass, and habang pauwi na ako, something catches my attention na talagang napalingon pa ako. I saw an old lady na naglalakad sa underpass na halos magkandakuba na and gamit ang kanyang left hand para lang masupport ang sarili sa paglalakad. I tend to ignore what I saw, then nung paliko na ako and malapit na sa may escalator (exit ng underpass), parang there’s something’s telling me to help the old lady. Nagdadalawang isip pa rin ako pero I just turn back and nilapitan ko yung old lady without thinking. I immediately asked her “lola ok lang po ba kayo?” and she firmly said na “okay lang ako iho, wag mo na ko intindihin pasensya na sa abala..” Pero I helped her instead and inassist ko sya paakyat ng hagdan. We were able to reach Jollibee. I gave her water and food. Tumatanggi yung old lady (perhaps nahihiya sya na may kumakausap at magbibigay ng food na complete stranger). Then another guy named Francois Dave Azur (can’t see you in FB) reached to me dahil nakita nya yung ginagawa ko. So he offered his discount stub sa jollibee para mas makapili ng food si lola.
While kumakain sya, I asked info about herself. Her details are as follows:
Lola Piling Dela Cruz Calapan, Mindoro Age: 80+ (not certain) Asaan ang mga kamag-anak mo: (Lola just nod - mukhang di nya mainterpret nang maigi ang tanong ko)
Paano sya napunta sa Manila: (this is based from my interpretation kasi medyo hindi dugtong dugtong yung statements ni lola) A project daw from their community has been established and marami daw silang dinala dito sa PGH para ipagamot sa kanilang karamdaman. Nawalan daw ng pondo yung group and may nagsabi daw sa kanila na pumunta sya ng Ayala, Makati dahil dun maraming may kaya at may trabaho at maraming tutulong sa kanya pabalik.
Andito na si Lola Piling since December last year. (Imagine - She spent her Christmas and new year sa manila nang hindi nya kasama ang mahal nya sa buhay!)
A few minutes pa and kinailangan ko na ring umalis. After namin magusap, kinuhaan ko na rin sya ng photo and I asked the store manager ng Jollibee to look after her while open pa ang shop. I also gave her my remaining P425 pesos in my wallet and nagtira lang ng fare enough para makauwi ako. Mas magagamit nya ang kaunting pera na yun and I hope makatulong yun sa kanya. I also left my business card sa kanya para in case may paraan sya para macontact ako.
Sinabi din ni Lola na “marami daw sila dito na nahiwa hiwalay sa iba’t ibang parte ng Makati” with this, ako po’y humihingi ng tulong sa mga fellow friends/acquaintances para matulungan sila Lola Piling Dela Cruz and yung iba pa nyang kasama na makabalik sa kani kanilang mga family and loved ones. Guys and girls, let us extend konting efforts in helping them.”
The most common regret is not living a life true to yourself. Have the courage to live a life true to yourself, not the life others expect of you. You can start small, but do start honoring at least some of your dreams.
It’s time to start living in the present. Letting go of the past is not easy, especially if you have wounds that have never properly healed. But, the past is past and living there may be preventing you from fully experiencing the present. Likewise fear of what may be looming around the corner can also prevent you from fully enjoying the present. Live in the moment and look forward to eternity with God, now that’s a great present.
In order to move forward you must open yourself to new experiences. There is no failing, only results. Be courageous and push yourself to new heights. Besides, what is going to happen if you make a bad decision? - You will learn from it. The more results you make, the faster you will reach your destination.
Truth has strength and power of its own. In any situation you find yourself in, look for truth, search for it deep in your heart. Let that truth of your heart flow, and you will see obstacles melt like ice.
This week express your devotion for God through dancing. Many are ways to God. Let the energy created by your body moving in rhythm become your homage to God.
you deserve a day where worries don’t get in the way of anything. a day where, even if some people are insensitive or unkind, you’re not going to mind.. because the blessings you received are far better than the burdens you experience. good morning!

"dAph" for short ...
I’m 22 (but.. oh, still sweet!!! lol) born June 06, 1989 ...
I grew up in Tanay ... also in Pililla …
... me?!? ...
petite!!! lol I would say I'm tiny but I think that everyone else is just a giant ... I look a lot younger than I am ...
I have fair skin, naturally dark brown hair & black/brown eyes ... as for weight, let's just say I've never weighed enough to be able to donate blood ...
simple! ... I wear whatever I feel like wearing ... changes everyday (of course!!!) & do favor shorts at good-girl blouses or over-sized ones ... loved skinny jeans at flats … & dresses on a Sunday mass ...
some people say that they always see me smiling ... some say they don't ...
I'm just an ordinary girl next door., whom you can count on always ... yes! I said it right.. ;-)
I'm a simple person., I don't want to make things complicated.. - as for everybody's sake ...
a person who likes to take life slowly ... just one day at a time (oh, come'on) ... usually know the difference between right & wrong ...
I believe in myself ... I put myself in other people's shoes & see how it feels to be them so then I can handle situations accordingly ...
sweet & caring (mahilig ako maglambing) ... I was very affectionate ... I loved to hug & be hugged ... ♥
I would say I am funny ... clown din ako ... minsan! (lalo na sa baby sister ko!!!)
though others may think & say that I'm "suplada" ... hmm maybe!!! sometimes ... but not quite ... hmm I admit I'm not that "friendly" ... (well, I usually don't talk to strangers & don't expect me to do so!!!) lol often mistaken for being "mahiyain" ... before! sooo before! kasi I'm changing na ... for the best, of course !!!
... mysterious, oftentimes a loner … I hide my emotions ... sometimes pretending to be always happy ... sometimes not giving even a hint of what I really feel ...
I used to be really meek & quiet in when I was a pre-teen ... I never used to stand out for myself but now I'm a lot more outspoken & outgoing ... I say what I feel & I complain when it's necessary ...
I'd say I'm in between ... I'm really a good listener ... I can make other people feel really important ...
I like having a plan but I like being spontaneous once in a while ...
I have so many ideas in mind ... & if I want something, I'll do anything to get it ...
I'm extremely optimistic ... I distance myself from pessimistic people ... hate their energy? ... lol ... but I always want to share others the brighter sides of everything I knew.. as if in one way or another, I'd be able to inspire them ...
I'm really honest about my thoughts & feelings ...
I get offended by rude + mean people ... I used to get offended when people would tell me I look young or that I'm really small ... but I don't anymore ... lol ...
I always have insomnia ... I usually just watch tv or go online ... then pray ... give thanks ... & share Him my stories ...
I have great passion for God & for loving & living life to the fullest..
I really value life, this is why I always try to have fun in everything that I do ... (the problem is, sometimes I have tooo much fun! lol) ...
I don't want any "what ifs" in my life ... that's why I'd rather regret something I did, than regret something I didn't do ... then end up realizing there's no point in regretting ... after all I know what I did was something I've wanted anyhow ...
sometimes, Id' like to claim that I'm a certified happy go lucky person but I guess I'm not ... well, the fact that I worry about certain things & certain people ... hmm ... but the flip side is sometimes, I care too much about other people & don't do what I really wanna do ... oh my weakness ...
I think I'm a little too sensitive sometimes ...
I consider things most people take for granted ...
I always aim for things I have yet not experienced, & when I do get what I aim for, I aim for greater..
I love myself ... if I didn't, how would I be able to share my love with other people? ... sabi nga, you cannot give what you do not have, 'di ba???
I'm soooooo inlove with my family !!! I love my Mama & Papa soooooo much ... also my brother Ian & especially my sister Em ... ♥
