Manny Pacquaio In His Seventh Title

It was in MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas wherein people were seated in all the 17,157 seats to watch boxing history in the making with Filipino pride Manny Pacquiao having 49 won with 37 by knockout-3 lost-2 draws trying to grab Puerto Rican boxer Miguel Angel Cotto's 34 won with 27 knockouts-1 lost-0 draws WBO Welterweight title.

No one could underestimate Manny Pacquiao for his boxing prowess. At the third and fourth round, he was able to bring Miguel Angel Cotto down literally. He made history when at the12th round, Miguel Angel Cotto no longer fought for his title. He was too tired to continue the fight when it is almost done. Another notable part of the bout is when Miguel Cotto failed to stay alert to defend himself for the aggressive take-over of Manny Pacquaio in the ring from the seventh to the twelfth round. Besides, Miguel Cotto played with dignity and courage as he tried to reach the last round as much as he could do. He was just stopped by the referee when it was evident that he could no longer defend himself. Miguel Cotto also showed so much respect with Manny Pacquaio by embracing the latter after he lost his title to the boxing champ. Compared to Ricky Hatton, Miguel Cotto did not show so much arrogance prior to the bout and during the bout.

Miguel Angel Cotto is more powerful than Manny Pacquiao but the latter is faster than him. Manny Pacquiao was able to display his systematic and timed punches with ease and at the same time using his speed to dodge Miguel Angel Cotto. As atated, referee Kenny Bayless closed the stint in the 12th round when he observed that Miguel Angel Cotto was no longer fighting. Finally, the said fight meant everything to Manny Pacquiao as it served as the inauguration of a new-fangled record no Asian boxer has ever achieved until now, that is to win seven world titles in seven different weight divisions such as Flyweight, Super Bantamweight, Featherweight, Super Featherweight, Lightweight, Light Welterweight and Welterweight.

On the first to the third round, Miguel Cotto tried to parry with the way Manny Pacquaio execute his own game plan. Earlier, Miguel Cotto's camp boasted of a game plan that would eventually topple Manny Pacquaio. But it seems that Miguel Cotto's game plan is not enough to scare aware the pound for pound champion. During the press conference, Miguel Cotto's camp, specifically his coach wished good luck to Manny Pacquaio like "Good luck Manny, you will need more of that during the bout", which was attacked by the contender with much humility. Yet, Cotto made a good fight during the bout. Besides, he did not show any hint of arrogance and over-confidence.

There were also reports that the people who were watching the bout chanted that Manny Pacquiao's next target should be Floyd Mayweather Jr. However, Manny Pacquaio never confirmed such request for his own opinion. He just enjoyed his latest win and prepared for the after-fight concert that he is excited about.

Life and Writing

Writing is my way of expressing my thoughts and opinion especially when I felt like I need to share them. It is also one way of sending messages to other people the things that I do not like and the things that I am fond of. Maybe, I was carrying a pen the day I was born because there are times that I could get sick when I failed to write. That's a joke, of course! Well, I learned many things since the day I signed up for a writing job.

The experiences made me a better person, a better blogger, and a better researcher. I am hoping a raise for my salary though for the coming year because I felt it is just and right. It is true that I earned a lot through writing. I wrote about travel, fashion and food. These topics are my favorite. I also wrote about pool parties and featured many Cavite resorts. It's really fun!

I am glad that I did not give up on writing. When I was in college, I promised myself to hone my writing skills in whatever way available. People would comment that writers are not really paid well. But when Internet surfing became a hit, that statement became moot and academic. I am not really good in grammar, I admit that. But sometimes, when you were born as a writer, things will fall in the right places. Yes, I am clever. I used all possible means to study all emotions that a person could express. These emotions really steam from falling in love up to the time when poverty and hunger breaks a heart. Yes, that is true. The complexity of the society actually revolves around eating and loving. Right? Feel the air. You will feel alright when you are loved. Listen to your heart, you will know that you are alright when you are not hungry. Strange but true. It is our survival that we understand the meaning of life. We struggle. Yes.

To Work Or Not To Work

The main reason why we need to work is to earn a living. We need to be hard working in order to increase our income. We also improve our skills in order to be promoted in work. But, what if there are other factors in work that make us bothered?

First, salaries may not be enough to support us and we need additional income. In this case, the element of time is necessary. In other words, if we know how to manage our time and juggle two jobs in every 24 hours we have, then there is no problem with this.

Second, there are people who wanted to destroy the reputation of the company you work for. In my case, I was bothered by some people who wanted to close the operation of the company because they were not promoted earlier. In my case, I just worked hard and leave the matter to the authorities.

Third, some office-mates are so noisy while working. In some cultures, work is no fun at all. But in my own place, work may be tied with fun. That is why some workers tend to abuse the work with fun moments while working.

And lastly, the element of monotony and laziness may bother workers at times. The best way to combat these problems is to remain positive and energetic while working.

Life Insurance Consciousness

Why is it that life insurance is necessary for us especially the working people? This question came into view upon reading a message about the Life Insurance Consciousness Week somewhere. The answer is simple: it gives us protection and such protection extends to family members. After all, when people took and signed insurance policies, they usually enlist their loved ones and family members as beneficiaries. People also need life insurance in order to be prepared at all times. Some people die early, hence an insurance proceeds is necessary. Others live too old and they need more money to spend for their personal needs such as food, medicine, shelter, and other things. Imagine the scare and hardship to be experienced by an old man who was not able to keep money for old age days in his life! It is proper for a person then to save and to have an insurance coverage while being young.

Moreover, an insurance coverage is also necessary in order to fund the funeral expenses of a person. This words are too harsh, I know, but this is reality. The way we spend money is too pervasive just like the taxes that we need to pay. Indeed, having an insurance coverage is the best way to prepare for the future.

food is the primary necessity for mankind to live

get life insurance coverage now!

I am Skinny Before

People used to pick on me when I was young because of my skinny physical frame. Others would even laugh at the slightest atack of the wind because they thought that I would be carried away by it. Since I grew up as a school track and field athlete, some of my friends even laugh at me because they cannot believe that I could run as fast as a dog. My secret for every win is determination and to get the medal for "Athlete of the Year" award of course to add to my rooster of awards during younger years at school. Going back to the skinny thing, I do not eat a lot and I often skip breakfast just to study for school purposes. Yes, I was once a nerd, weird and all, but I changed. I tried to maintain my brains for purposes of survival in this scary world.

This time, I already weigh 54 kls. from 48 kls. and still vying for the perfect trim. My only purpose is to stay healthy for my loved ones and before the eyes of God. There is one thing that I do not do, exercise. It is difficult for me to squeeze that into my schedule for now. But later, I will also engage again in athletic dispositions in order to stay healthy.

It's Krrunch Time, get Playful!

I have been aspiring to be one of the most sought-after lawyer in town for years. So, I studied law and tried to pass the BAR exams. In preparing for the said exam in school, I need to read at least 400 pages a day and digest 200 cases per week. Thinking of that hard work alone makes life so boring and monotonous. Being a law student, there is also a need to memorise legal provisions that only the most diligent student could accomplish. The daily habit of reading tons of books in different subjects and memorising legal provisions made life so horrible despite the fact that I still want to be a lawyer. One question popped out in my mind, "So, where's the Krrunch?", and so I changed my study habits from then on.


Since day one, I tried to find ways to combat the ever-boring law books study time. Until one day, I discovered that eating the right snacks in between study period is helpful. I tried to find the best snacks in the grocery stores and I found Pringles! It is a snack made of crispy chips that provides Krrunch and joy in between study time at school. Krrunch-ing has made me alive every time I study and every assignment became easy to accomplish. I always enjoy reading my law books and memorising legal provisions since then because of Krrunch-ing Pringles. Pringles is really the best snack food in town. It has been my partner in reaching my dreams!




Until then...

If the birds survived

This day is one of the most confusing, intriguing, and trying time in my life. There are many difficult moments that I even voluntarily shed tears. Since, I need to accept the situation, I just paused for a while and think of the times when I survived difficult ordeals. in fact, I thought of other creatures who don't have the qualities that humans had in order to solve problems.

I thought of the birds in the sky, flying eagles, the maya's and the tingkarols in the trees. These creatures do not have the ability to find solutions that humans always do. So I thought, why should I worry? If these birds survived, I will also survive with the Lord's help. My waterloo is a difficult moment when all problems come like rain. They say, "when it rain, it really pours", things like that. Well, it is a matter of courage and faith. So here I am, writing this blog as a gesture of courage and a manifestation that, I too, can survive.

Good Morning

Just this morning, I felt that lady luck is smiling at me because almost all of the people that I met on the street greeted me "good morning". At first I asked myself, so what's good in the morning? I still have to eat breakfast and I am already starving. Later on, when I reached another corner, a security guard greeted me "good morning" with a matching big grin on his face. I was thinking, security guards had longer work hours than me and they usually work during night time, but they still can manage to smile some passers-by like me. So why should I complain? When I reached the office, another security guard greeted me the same thing "good morning" which made me think that indeed lady luck smiled at me often. I realised that good morning meant hope and abundance because it is free for all. It is just a matter of peace of mind and acceptance in all the things that happened.

I also remembered the movie "Good Morning Vietnam" which was directed by Barry Levinson. Robin Williams played the character of Adrian Cronauer who is a good airman. He made history when he aired using an introduction "Good Morning Vietnam" and people and even soldiers really loved his adlibs on air. That's it, the morning greeting is really helpful just to make one day great.

So, good morning everyone! Have a nice day.

Robertson v. Princeton Case

There are many things that surrounds the case of Robertson v. Princeton. Some of these matters include:

1. Charles Robertson is a wealthy man who founded the Robertson Foundation with his wife in order to help his alma mater, Princeton University. However, years after he died, controversies surrounds the said foundation due to serious allegations against Princeton University by his son William Robertson and other relatives.

2. The main ehtical issue of the case is about changing the main intention of the philanthropist in donating money to a certain endowment of fund raising entity. In the case of Princeton, it allegedly misused the donations of Robertson Foundation in favor of the students at Woodrow Wilson school. The intention of William's father is to fund the graduate schooling of students taking public service courses and eventually getting a job in the Federal Government. However, it was not the case at Princeton University.

3. William Richardson accused Princeton University that it used the funding of the foundation in other projects like buildings and programs or fellowships not related to the original intent of the donor.

4. Lastly, William also ,mentioned that fund raising activities are affected by the poor governance, fraud, and misuse of funding by recipients of endowments.

Knowing all these points, fund raisers must be careful in their transactions with donors so that they would not commit unethical activities. This case has been considered as the most expensive legal battle nowadays as both parties used hefty amount of money to fund the suit. But the most important point is that the case will surely affect the future of fund raising activities.

Remembering 9/11 Tragedy

I have a book that provides hundreds of recollections and accounts of those people who survived the 9/11 attacks. I am not yet done reading the book, but I see to it that I still remember the bravery and compassion of those people who helped others to survive in that great ordeal. I also remember the time it happened when I heard about it in the news. All eyes of the people around me were glued to the television screen and were shocked of what happened to the twin towers. We saw the first tower collapse and thought that was the end of it and survivors might find their way.

However, the second tower was hit again by another plane maneuvered by the terrorists. It is notable that most of the survivors survived because others helped them cope the incident. Others were meant to return home because they forgot something and before they could turn their heads to know what was that thunderous sound, the twin towers collapsed to the ground. There was also one flight that was prevented by heroic Americans to destroy targets. For the victims and their families, it has been a great trial and a difficult time that deserves all our prayers.

Thank you.
