Pacquiao-Margarito Fight
This is the "the talk of the town". Or shall I say "the talk of the country". I enjoyed watching news, hearing polls and their bets. I'm not into boxing sports but its fun hearing people cheering within their own homes, people are in unity in stadiums, along the streets, people stop to watch and cheers. I hope this fight would be fair and may the best win. Good luck Congressman Pacman & God bless!

Enjoying Basketball
High school basketball has a lot of fun for me. Cheer for your school during tournaments. Go wild! Be aggressive! That’s why I love to watch basketball live than on television. Everybody cheers. I can feel the excitement as the time runs.
Universities have their own names for their team. Some teams used “Blue Devils”. Blue Devils are widely renowned in American College Sports. Others named their team as “Texas Longhorns”. This team experienced significant success during the early decades of its survival, but its success in the contemporary time is of somewhat recent traditional. Another team, the “Iowa Hawkeyes” have enjoyed the successes of eight Big Ten reqular-season conference championships. Mascots are usually used to put the school in a distinctive position. Like the “Gonzaga Bulldogs”, the team has a mascot named “Zags” which is very popular in marketing materials, fans and television announcers.
Try to get the best seat every game and cheer for your favourite team! Bring your friends and join the fun!

SONG OF THE WITCHES
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork and bling-worms sting,
Lizard's leg and howlet's wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble.
Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.
Macbeth: IV.i. 10-19; 35-38

A Story to Live By...
There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind.
She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She told her boyfriend, 'If I could only see the world, I will marry you.'
One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages
came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend.
He asked her, 'Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?'
The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The
sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected that.
The thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse
to marry him.
Her boyfriend left in tears and days later wrote a note to her
saying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before
they were yours, they were mine.'
This is how the human brain often works when our status changes.
Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who
was always by their side in the most painful situations.
Life Is a Gift
Today before you say an unkind word - Think of someone
who can't speak.
Before you complain about the taste of your food - Think of someone
who has nothing to eat.
Before you complain about your husband or wife - Think of someone
who's crying out to GOD for a companion.
Today before you complain about life - Think of someone
who died too early on this earth.
Before you complain about your children - Think of someone
who desires children but they're barren.
Before you argue about your dirty house someone didn't clean or
sweep - Think of the people who are living in the streets.
Before whining about the distance you drive - Think of someone
who walks the same distance with their feet.
And when you are tired and complain about your job - Think of the
unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.
But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another - Remember that not one of us is without sin.
And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down - Put a smile
on your face and think: you're alive and still around.

Believe in Yourself
There are days when we are getting up in the morning,
and realize that things are not the way we are hoping would be.
And we keep telling ourselves that things will get better.
There are also times when a person disappoints us and will let us down.
But those were the times when you just remind yourself
to trust your own judgments and opinions,
keeping your life focused on believing in yourself.
There will be challenges to face and changes to make in your life,
and it is up to you to allow them.
Relentlessly remain yourself headed in the right direction for you.
It may not be simple at times,
but in those times of struggle
you will find a stronger wisdom of who you are.
So when the days come that are filled with frustration
and unexpected responsibilities,
learn by heart to believe in yourself
and all you want your life to be.
Because the challenges and changes will only help you
to find the goals that you know are meant to come true for you.
Keep Believing in Yourself…

Letting Go...
To let go doesn't mean to stop caring;
It means I can't do it for someone else.
To let go is not to cut myself off...
It's the realization that I can't control another...
To let go is not to enable,
but to allow learning from natural consequences.
To let go is to admit powerlessness,
which means the outcome is not in my hands.
To let go is not to try and change or blame another,
I can only change myself.
To let go is not to care for, but to care about.
To let go is not to fix, but to be supportive.
To let go is not to judge,
but to allow another to be a human being.
To let go is not to be in the middle arranging all the outcomes,
but to allow others to affect their own outcomes.
To let go is not to be protective,
It is to permit another to face reality.
To let go is not to deny, but to accept.
To let go is not to nag, scold, or argue,
but to search out my own shortcomings and correct them.
To let go is not to adjust everything to my desires,
but to take each day as it comes and cherish the moment.
To let go is not to criticize and regulate anyone,
but to try to become what I dream I can be.
To let go is not to regret the past,
but to grow and live for the future.
To let go is to fear less and love more.
