I have been into the</p><p>computershop and printing business for nearly all my lifetime. the pandemic just took</p><p>this whole business away from me indefinitely. I dont know when this plandemic will</p><p>end and when the students are going to get back... but for now? I am paying all of my </p><p>operating expense from my own savings, with almost zero income. </p><p>Now, this plandemic is a big test, really. a test of your <b>health</b> (how long can you last </p><p>being healthy? surrounded by people you dont know, when or where your going to get </p><p>infected, how long can your immune system can protect you.? my neighbor got infected</p><p>they lost their lifetimes's savings in 2 wks. </p><p>and this plandemic is a test of your wealth, how much savings have you saved to let</p><p>you survive with no source of inome? 3 yrs? 5 yrs? we dont know. real wealth is measured</p><p>not by the clothes you wear, the brand of phone youre using, or the house you own, or</p><p>the car you drive. the big question is, if a pandemic occurs and all your sources of income</p><p>are put to a halt... how much have you saved? with no income, how long can you spend?</p><p>I think i will be loosing every penny if this pandemic goes beyond 2026. those who read</p><p>my blog a few yrs back knew that I love cars and got 5 cars before the pandemic. I dont </p><p>own one anymore...</p><p>I lost one auntie and one uncle to covid. they came from a rich family. I could not imagine</p><p>if they are just a working class citizen like me.</p><p>I have heard a lot of people going crazy because they lost their job. this is very true. a </p><p>lot of my friends experience that. </p><p>jeepney drivers are all affected, may franchise lines like the ones going to Malinta have </p><p>all been phased out. engines sold to motorboat operators in sea side towns. there have </p><p>been many changes in just a year. our neighborhood is known as Bonifacio Shopping</p><p>Center, its only landmark, the Palengke, is nowhere to be found now because of this</p><p>plandemic, they are asked to leave or be driven away by the City government. oh, there</p><p>is only one bus monopoly now, called METROLINK, the yellow bus. all other bus</p><p>brand are not allowed to travel, including provincial busses. everyone is required</p><p>to fall in line, no standing, only 30 passengers are allowed. this applies to </p><p>all the MRT, LRT and PNR trains.</p><p>this plandemic has turned the middle class family to the new poor. and the poorest</p><p>of the poor, become scavengers, opportunist, just waiting for cash aid.</p><p>what I have learned. the virus is airborne this explains why the poorest of the poor</p><p>seldom gets it. they are always outside their house, in open air, does not socialize </p><p>much, and the whole neighborhood just stays outside. while middleclass families</p><p>eat together in enclosed areas, no mask, staying close together, in</p><p>an air condition room. thats how they get it.. the rich ones, ? can import and sell PPE </p><p>without getting apprehended. if they got the virus, they can afford to buy expensive</p><p>medical care, I can name a few rich people who survived. only 2 perished.</p><p>in this pandemic, if you are well connected, you get rich quick. if not suffer being</p><p>like the others who lost their livelihood, their work, their jobs because their</p><p>source of income is not anti pandemic.</p><p>and as for the vaccines? the big pharma gets to become the new worlds' richest,</p><p>richer than Elon, in a couple of years, every people need to retake and upgrade</p><p>their vaccines, because every year, there will be another new variant, each year</p><p>with new vaccines just like what we do a couple of decades back with out </p><p>computer anti virus update and update the virus signatures, so the vaccines will</p><p>counter new strains. that is big business...</p><p>my conclusion? we are not being told the truth. this is all a big big money</p><p>making fairy tale dream come true for the big pharma companies.</p><p style="text-align: left;">and so my blog ends here, yes, no pictures, till the plandemic is over.</p><p>this is your Loverboy Dennis signing off.</p><p>.</p>LOVERBOYZAVENUEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11766087505236163308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1831018933570445662.post-29130372596139223472020-12-28T04:10:00.009-08:002021-03-03T16:05:04.442-08:00is your Christmas happy this year?<p> 2020 the year that has necessarily kept my friends, and family apart has, in some ways, </p><p>brought us closer via ZOOMing, google meet. this year is the first time I have heared </p><p>of the term, online class, online leaning and modular learning though distance education. </p><span><a name='more'></a></span><p><br /></p><p>2020 has restricted travel, for us, even in GCQ areas, due to a new strain of mutated </p><p>corona virus Frm UK called B117 that experts warned is more contagious, more deadly. </p><p>so We are unable to gather as we would wish for their But we need life to go on do we?</p><p><br /></p><p>2020 has taught me some pretty hard lessons, how to manage finances, I sold my car, </p><p>this year has made the middle class become the "new poor." and some businessman rich </p><p>because of the profit that comes from selling PPEs, foods (during the 3 mos quarantine </p><p>period) and profits from the purchases of Vaccines. but it has bought down the lower </p><p>class citizens to a level unimaginable.

I remember the job I had poured my </p><p>blood, sweat and tears into for nearly 16 years, almost to the utter exclusion of my </p><p>family, and friends. It was a job you would be happy to get stuck in for until you retire,</p><p>you will be hooked to the excitement, the fun, the joys and laughter of your customers</p><p>yes, I miss those days. it had shaped my middle age life, I thought until I retire.</p><p>I am single, with no family to feed, the 3 branches earn a beautiful sum, good enough</p><p>to maintain 6 souped up cars, 2 SUVs with 3 latest cel phones every quarter. and still</p><p>have enough budget to travel and have fun. </p><p>Who wouldn’t get addicted to this work? I was the person fellow LANSHOP members</p><p> consult if they wanted any of their sales to increase. I give tips, on how to operate a</p><p> successful LANSHOP business 16 yrs ago. when I started DEN-R , I’m telling you</p><p> this not to brag, but only to show you the height of the fall of the LANSHOP business </p><p> everyone here in my neighborhood knows about. I had competitors who tried and </p><p>failed. during reunions, gatherings, events, I thought nothing of taking out my CP and </p><p>checking how the sales are going, and wanted to go back in a hurry, in front of everyone.</p><p>friends know me, I dont attend events if its not important, because I open my 3 shops even</p><p>during the holidays, because not only had my work become my life, it had become my god.</p><p> No one was taking it away from me. or so I thought.....</p><p>when my dad had stroke and passed on, and the landlord told us that the entire lot where</p><p>my shops were will be demolished to give way to a big condominium. I had to move to</p><p>another barangay and transfer whats left to our garage, because there was no available</p><p>place for rent. everyone (200 plus tenants ) have to get a place in a months notice.</p><p>the new place was not fit for this business, its inside a private subdivision. kids are not </p><p>allowed IN. and in less than a year, everything went down. when the govt announced a</p><p>lockdown, I decided to close everything, sell everything, and fight another day. </p><p>Now this is the reality, because its true organizations close, brands fold, customers leave.</p><p>so, the calls from my friends became scarce. because I cannot loan them money anymore</p><p>Even former colleagues inexplicably avoided me.(yes the ones who had huge debts) .</p><p>It became clear to me that my relationship with many of these individuals was simply </p><p>based on my ability to sponsor , to loan, to help, and to give money when they needed </p><p>them. and that is the hard reality of life. those days are over. </p><p>and this COVID virus? it will stay. forever with us. look, this is the 2nd time the govt</p><p>made an effort to quarantine NCR. MECQ, 2nd strict quarantine level.</p><p>The covid is too widespread too transmissible. the pandemic may end at some point </p><p>if enough people have been either infected or vaccinated but the virus will circulate</p><p> in lower levels around the globe. And will cntinue, and not go away. Thats for sure!</p><p><br /></p><p>Outbreaks will still pop up here and there. Even when a much-anticipated vaccine </p><p>arrives, it only suppress but wont completely eradicate the virus. Like the flu, its here</p><p> to stay. We need to learn to live with it.</p><p>this is your LOVERBOY Dennis signing out</p><p><br /></p>LOVERBOYZAVENUEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11766087505236163308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1831018933570445662.post-80862031226314974572020-07-05T18:22:00.002-07:002020-07-05T18:22:50.936-07:00GCQ THE LIFE AFTER 3 MONTHS after 3months...<br />
<br />
its now MGCQ , for NCR, the dreadful time where we are separated from each other by<br />
walls and windows, only to get out and see sunlight when we carry a travel pass, of<br />
somekind, is almost over. but the virus remains. yes its still out there and its mutating.<br />
<br />
people get infected, more, by the day, everyday. and while there is no over the counter<br />
cure that you could take for 1 wk just like any flu medicine. people are encouraged<br />
to stay indoors, (20 yrs old below and 60 yrs old above). so if you're customers are in<br />
this age range, then you need to closed down your business. many middle class have now<br />
become the new poor.<br />
<br />
take for example the online gaming industry. where I have 16 yrs experience.<br />
how can one survive with 10 percent capacity?<br />
of accepting 21 yr old and up customers? who in their right mind will still continue this<br />
business model? 21 yr old should go out and work. not ask money from parents to play<br />
online games. so this industry is the most affected. with only 15/hr rate, the business<br />
required more than 50 units per 60 sqm to earn. or at least 15 seats occupied straight for<br />
at least 6 hrs a day to have break even.<br />
<br />
aside from LANSHOPs, travel is ristricted to people with special passes, so no one<br />
can get outside the country, this made lots of travel related business models to close<br />
down, tourism is greatly affected. tour guides, jobless. this could go on til next year at<br />
the minimum.<br />
<br />
the icon of our culture, the Philippine Jeepnys are down. lots of operators go to the<br />
streets to ask for alms. its hard. also for the commuting public who rely on jeepneys to<br />
go to work. for the working class, live is getting worse, for example my friend needs to<br />
walk from a town in Malabon to Monumento, 15kms because there are no jeepney<br />
if you are rich, well off, you can choose not to work, stay home and just spend your<br />
savings until this pandemic ends probably after a year or two.. or if you are pretty, you<br />
wait for your sugar daddy, rich younger boyfriend to feed your luxuries and wants.<br />
but if you choose the path of the righteous, then, you join the thousands of commuting<br />
public, working only 3 times a week. and risk being infected, and die.<br />
<br />
the future of the economy is not that bright, survival depends on how a company<br />
would manage cost cutting with almost zero income coming in. and yet still has to pay<br />
the debts.<br />
<br />
life is hard for the lower class. but its dangerous for the middle class businesses. if the<br />
company is not pandemic proof, like groceries medicines, food... then its in danger of<br />
collapse. everything depends on how good a manager you are, providing what the<br />
community needs while doing this in the most budget friendly way.<br />
<br />
till here, I would write another experience next month. please be healthy because<br />
this is not the right time to get sick.<br />

a lot. yes. I lost my auntie she just died a decade before her centennial year. because of<br />
loneliness.<br />
<br />
never can you imagine streets and shops closed, delivery fee' soared 200% a lot of people<br />
could not cope up with life just staying inside your room. doing nothing but starring at<br />
the walls in 41 degree heat. I know a few who died doing nothing but just staying at home.<br />
with this pandemic, you survive by having a good health good resistance and it all<br />
depends on how well you social distance with people, and how good you cover the<br />
possible virus entry points (specially the eyes and ears). survival means having to survive<br />
before during and after the pandemic.<br />
<br />
before the pandemic everybody is not prepared, I did not stock up on supplies. almost<br />
every one is not prepared, internet cafes and travel, events are the most affected businesses.<br />
almost zero income, but still need to pay the rent, the bills. to survive I need to be a little<br />
innovative. I offered free printing to my community for their needs as a form of<br />
"kawanggawa" and charge on laminating services. from march 16-present. this way, I <br />
work from home, practice physical distancing, and take vitamin C everyday, 1 glass<br />
garlic juice everyday slept 8 hrs a day. yes, I have to get out of one barangay to cross<br />
to the other barangay as early at 503am. so I could open the lamination services which<br />
could pay all the bills.<br />
<br />
in my previous blog I have mentioned that to survive this pandemic, you need to be relying<br />
on your health and immune system , so as not to get infected, and rely on your pocket<br />
emergency money to spend to last for a few months until the end of this pandemic.<br />
I work at home, yes even the place where I do my lamination services is home.<br />
I go here to kill boredom at home, I dont want to stare at the doors or windows or walls.<br />
so I accept lamination services of their quarantine passes(of 4 neighboring barangays)<br />
consumed about 3 reams in 2 months. much much better than during the school year.<br />
<br />
since there is absolutely no aid for the middle class, we are all left to fend for<br />
ourselves. ok rent should be suspended right? but what if you issued 12 cheques in<br />
advance during the start of this bloody year? landlady will just deposit them.<br />
no restaurants are available, I only have a diet of 3 eggs a day 1 soup, 3 oranges, that is<br />
what kept me alive.<br />
<br />
Monday will be GCQ it means everyone will report to work, and streets will be busy<br />
again, but the virus is still out there. I hope this will not be like the<br />
Spanish flu where the virus mutated and became a killer on the second attempt to infect<br />
and reduce the population<br />
<br />
so I hope nothing bad happens and we will all et back to life last 2 months.<br />

social amelioration fund, IATF, ayuda, and COVID19. the new NORMAL.<br />
because.............<br />
under the new normal, middle class high income families may have to sell stuffs,<br />
and downgrade, while low income middle class families are now the new poor.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
this pandemic may be peaking soon. As we prepare to venture out of our quarantine<br />
lockdown, self-isolation and return to work, one thing is certain: The world we return<br />
to won’t be the same as the pre-pandemic world that we inhabited only a few weeks ago.<br />
and until there is a vaccine or treatment for COVID-19, we will have to maintain some social distancing and heightened hygiene standards, i.e, lots of handwashing. Those are just two<br />
of the possible changes from the pre-Coronavirus idea of normal.<br />
<br />
Video conferencing for meetings and distance learning for schools might be much<br />
more common after the pandemic than before.<br />
<br />
for LANSHOP owners like me, the new normal means shifting to online e-learning<br />
for students, rearranging PC units to 2 seat apart for physical distancing. this may mean<br />
closing down the whole cafe, as a lanshop would only profit if there are more than 20<br />
units used or rented at the same time for 5 hours. in my case, I chose to just close down.<br />
<br />
solution would be to test people for COVID-19 before they enter crowded public venues.<br />
Abbott has already marketed a reliable 5-minute Coronavirus test that might one day be<br />
used to screen concert-goers or travelers for a COVID-19 infection before they enter an<br />
arena or board an airplane.<br />
<br />
When people have to be physically present, work spaces might be changed to increase<br />
space between workers. If that isn’t possible, barriers could be erected to protect against<br />
aerosol droplets produced by coughs, sneezes, or even just talking.<br />
<br />
Plexiglass barriers between cashiers and customers are already becoming commonplace<br />
in grocery stores. Those partitions might be here to stay.<br />
<br />
its hard, but that is the new normal, until a vaccine or a quick drug is around to just<br />
buy over the counter.. thing wont get back the way they used to.<br />
<br />
2022 is a year of staying and being alive, staying at home with 0000 income and<br />
relying on what emergency savings you have to feed your family, pay<br />
the bills for as long as you can, while staying healthy and being covid free.<br />
its a challenge in itself because worrying gets to lower once immune system and<br />
with no cure for this virus, we dont know how long you should stay at home.<br />
2 yrs probably? so compute maximum of 2 years of spending your savings without<br />
income. (for food medicines, bills), that is if you dont get sick. the govt only pay the<br />
your hospital bills if you re admitted in a public ward. so this spending will be everyday,<br />
for a max of 2 yrs. or when a vaccine or cure is readily available whichever comes first.<br />
<br />
good luck middle class.<br />
<br />
for now this is your LOVERBOY Dennis signing out<br />
still, no pictures to show because tourism is dead for now.<br />
until then.<br />
lets all stay home and wait for that vaccine.LOVERBOYZAVENUEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11766087505236163308noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1831018933570445662.post-69729089552814194082020-04-08T19:21:00.004-07:002020-04-12T15:57:51.934-07:00ncov pandemic: end of blogging as we knew it?I woke up one day in March to a message from a friend, informing me of the<br />
community quarantine that is to be implemented in the whole of Luzon.<br />
and I know that day is the start of a new chapter of my life. a life where every<br />
ounce of the coins you have saved will count. a different life, a global event<br />
that will reset every activity known to man. and will destroy world economies,<br />
collapsing health system, to enormous proportions since the 2nd World War.<br />
this is the Corona virus pandemic, and this is my story.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>this is the story of the Corona virus, originally passed on from infected animal<br />
to a healthy animal, has mutated to infect humans. this virus started in<br />
Wuhan, in the later months of 2019, spread across the globe after Chinese New<br />
Year Spring festival. the Philippines has its first case early week of March. and<br />
the following week, the govt put the whole of NCR under lock down to save<br />
people and reduce the number of infections spreading.<br />
<br />
with this sudden lock down, people are not prepared. the working class was surprised<br />
to loose most of their jobs. the government proposed work from home. but if your<br />
work is not IT related, does not need to create reports, attend virtual meetings,<br />
or does not require the use of computer, or any gadget, this work from home is not<br />
applicable to you, and you loose your job. because most companies give the NO work<br />
NO Pay rule. so money discipline can save you in this crisis, as all financial planner have<br />
thought us. we need to have an emergency savings. because this will save your ass<br />
from becoming the NEW POOR.<br />
<br />
so the government made a sudden lock down order saving a lot of people from getting<br />
infected, to control the spread, as of this writing the Philippines has less than 5000 cases.<br />
just in the first month. while other countries has around 21k infected on the same month<br />
without the quarantine/ lock down.<br />
<br />
the figure would have been in the tens of thousands if the government did not<br />
tell the people to stay home and follow the lock down order recommended by<br />
the health department and the inter agency task force on infectious deceases.<br />
since March 14 up until now, Luzon has been on lock down.<br />
(the community quarantine was announced March 12 a ay after my friends'<br />
birthday, took effect on the 15th. but as number of cases increased, the govt.<br />
announced an enhanced community quarantine, on the 16th which took effect on<br />
the 17th .. everyone listed to the IATF, and in less than a week, the pandemic has<br />
closed down holy sites, holy structures, assemblies, gatherings, it has closed down<br />
business of all kinds except those essential to survival.travel and travel planning<br />
has been disrupted. oil prices went down to 26.00, and travel to the whole stretch<br />
of the main highway EDSA, has been reduced to a mere twenty minutes normal<br />
driving.<br />
<br />
for the middle class citizens, only those who have saved for an emergency fund can<br />
survive with 0000 income, the possibility of loosing a permanent job, and still<br />
cope up with paying bills ,rent, and other operating expenses after the lock down.<br />
because the middle class wont be given cash aid by the govt. because we are not<br />
qualified.<br />
<br />
for the well off class, like the garments factories , they shift to making mask, while<br />
liquor companies shift to making sanitizers, alcohol, laminating companies shift to<br />
making acrylic mask, eco bag making companies shift to making mask also and PPEs.<br />
food companies gave food rations to front liners, private citizens donate, its called<br />
BAYANIHAN, and majority of the well off businessman and netizens are participating.<br />
<br />
almost all business are not functioning except those who bring the essentials for<br />
community survival. that said, companies cannot hire bloggers , influence rs any longer.<br />
no travels, no new products to introduce. even Catholic activities like palm sunday<br />
pass over and holy week is not commemorated since the 2nd world war.<br />
<br />
its a global health emergency of a magnitude not seen in 100 years. unless a vaccine is<br />
developed. I kept on repeating if there is no vaccine, or cure, this health emergency<br />
will keep coming back annually. how long will this end?? 19 months? when a cure or<br />
some vaccine is developed? this is not a time of division, this is a race, and if the world<br />
is not quick enough, this may mutate to a more deadlier strain like staying airborne for<br />
8 hrs just like measles.<br />
<br />
<br />
there is still 20+ days before the ECQ ends I really don't know what to expect in the days<br />
to come. most communities are closed, prices of oil went down to 26.00 but there is no<br />
where you can go. the question on everyone's mind is "Who is next?" or "AM I NEXT?"<br />
<br />
<br />
while there are still no known vaccine or cute for this virus. it will get back. every year<br />
it may infect again, and if no cure is available, we may have this %$#$%#@$ lock down<br />
every year, just like the annual town fiestas, Valentines, Christmas and new year.<br />
stay at home. this will be over. and when this is thru, mask will be an accessory you<br />
would see in malls. and everywhere, it will be as common as your phone charger.<br />
<br />
the ECQ is supposed to end after Easter 2020 but, its extended til April 30.<br />
if everyone behaves.<br />
<br />
the holy week just passed by and some may hardly notice it.<br />
have a solemn Easter this year.<br />

Gary Lising, (in January ) Bentong (in Febuary ) Pepe Smith then Manoy Eddie,<br />
Carlos Celdran....Quakes in Central Mindanao, and Davao and then Ursula on Christmas.<br />
and the end to Harrison Plaza!<br />
2019 is not the year to celebrate in the Philippines.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>ANNUS HORRIBILIS. a terrible year for some...<br />
<br />
its not a good year for me either, Its not my habit to post negative things and news<br />
about my life on social media to my friends, so all you see in my socmed accounts<br />
are just pictures not the other side of me.<br />
<br />
this blog wont be having any images, because there are no beautiful images to<br />
post. its been my habit to narrate the good things that happen every year from my<br />
previous blogs. but for this year? I dont think there are any travel pics to share<br />
or precious moments to show.<br />
<br />
by the start of 2019, I accumulated whatever savings I have to put up another store,<br />
and rebuild my home a kilometer across the now empty market.<br />
just across my former shop. while I look at the former shop. its really a depressing<br />
sight.<br />
<br />
I have been in the LANSHIOP business for 14 yrs for a time, I though I was<br />
indestructible, never in my nightmares have I thought I will be destroyed by<br />
progress, innovation and technological change. and later on, price war.<br />
<br />
50percent of my customers lived in this demolished patch of property formerly owned<br />
by the Mirandas(BONIFACIO SHOPPING CENTER) gone are my 3lanshops.<br />
<br />
because of change, users want more from their gaming experience, thus new<br />
games requires 4gb video graphics cards, much faster processing power, bigger memory<br />
costing the computer shop operator to invest in desktop gaming PCs that cost 35k<br />
excluding the 24 inches LED, comfortable playing environment, high def headsets<br />
cool aircondition systems all for 10.00 an hour. so, the big companies win in this war<br />
they have 100+ or more gaming PCs operating 24H.<br />
for printing? yes print is 5.00 but competitors bought in high end printers costing 20k a<br />
piece offering 1.00 bulk print. which greatly affected my business.<br />
<br />
because of change, gaming companies began to port their popular gaming titles<br />
to the mobile platforms, users connect wirelessly and play against each other.<br />
smell screens dont require fast processors. and its a hit. so most gamers are now<br />
using mobile phones to share their winning moments via Mobile Legends, ROS<br />
the popular pc game that connects via facebook, is now available in mobile.<br />
<br />
<br />
the market now is empty, every now and then, there is a risk of getting towed, getting<br />
your goods taken legally, or being driven away by street clearing hawker teams.<br />
to make the story short, life is different now. the usual afternoon strolls around my<br />
neighborhood are a thing of the past, because a large part of the community is<br />
destroyed cleared to give way to San Jose's Victoria towers.<br />
<br />
No time for leisure walks, No workout at Slimmers, no time for walking tours,<br />
photo walks, and with that brings the bad side effects, no travel means no blogging,<br />
because there is just nothing to narrate and share about.<br />
<br />
and by the mid of November my Christian faith was put to the test, and failed<br />
miserably. I want my brothers to pray for me, because I am only human and is slowly<br />
loosing my faith.<br />
<br />
one more day and this decade which started with the millennium bug? will end.<br />
and I am really uncertain what will happen by the end of the next decade, when I<br />
turn 55. ow, I forgot, Dec31 2021 is the start of the end of the first decade...sorry.<br />
<br />
this is your LOVERBOY Dennis signing off.<br />
good bye 2019, I wish to bury you, and tomorrow, I'll stay awake and watch...<br />
and make sure you leave along with the misfortunes you bought me.<br />

<br />
despite the efforts of thousands of ghost hunters on television and elsewhere<br />
ghosts fall outside the realm of what science can prove or disprove.<br />
for decades, not a single piece of hard evidence of ghosts has been found<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>this blog does not have pictures of ghost, because I dont own one, I have<br />
not encountered one, and most of the pictures you may see on the internet<br />
are fake, manioulated, or just effects from bouncing light.<br />
<br />
I’ve had an interest in ghost stories and paranormal exploration and shows<br />
and other things for a long time even before I got baptized.<br />
<br />
Many patients with dementia have reported seeing ghosts, and hallucinations<br />
are one symptom of dementia. my dad, a year before he got his first stroke<br />
attack, would often narrate how he met and talked with some of his deceased<br />
kumpares friends, acquaintances. he gets hallucinations where he would think<br />
there are friends with him talking to him moments before I got up to see him.<br />
<br />
ghost are products of pure imagination, stress, sleep paralysis, and co2 inhalation.<br />
and poisoning so up til now a, a non believer. ghost does not exist. once a<br />
person dies, he is done and gone. he cannot communicate, or visit the living.<br />
why? there are no proof. look at how many have died ever since?<br />
100 trillion or more? if they can all communicate and get back, then the earth,<br />
as we live shall be filled with spirits from different generations and era. right?<br />
<br />
because ghost can't. but demons can. demons can possess the living, can get back<br />
to haunt the living.. if a medium tells you he can communicate with spirits?<br />
they are actually communicating with demons. places are not haunted by spirits<br />
or ghosts, but by demons.<br />
<br />
demons can manifest, can break glasses, move things, harm the living<br />
but faith and GOD will vanish the demon.<br />

No calls from Daddy,<br />
he is gone and this is not another nightmare.<br />
this is the story of how dad was taken away from us. since 2017 I could not<br />

I usually prepare coffee for dad... his favorite breakfast, while I look after the<br />
LANSHOP. these where happy days, when I get to tell stories and Dad listens.<br />
Dad has difficulty urinating, difficulty walking(due to constant muscle cramps)<br />
he has Peripheral artery disease. and has been suffering since 2013. he stopped<br />
working and retired the summer of 2015.<br />

From 2015-2017 We (me and my mom) would take turns taking care of Dad.<br />
I know he was in a lot of difficulty, but he never complained. imagine having<br />
difficulty to urinate and having leg cramps at the same time? having difficulty<br />
climbing the stairs usually we need to assist him up. leg will be in pain whenever<br />
its exposed to a cold room. he is healthy from head down to his hips, half body<br />
only. he had been this way every year until his last birthday.<br />

he has difficulty walking, he couldnt stand for more than 10 secs. because of leg<br />
cramps, he has prostate to he needs to count to ten just to push the urine out, he has<br />
difficulty going to the comfort room, so he always took meds just to made everything<br />
easier, yes, LBM everyday, how difficult is that? and mother was the one to clean<br />
the mess every time. it has been like this the past few months since January 2017.<br />
he has an accident August 24, 2017, coffee suddenly spilled to his entire arm.<br />
I was not home then, I was in Ayuntamiento attending a seminar about Bonifacio<br />
I was told he still remained calm, with that much pain, after 2 days the effect of<br />
that stress finally was revealed.<br />
<br />
August 25, I could still hear dad counting 1..7 desperately to urinate but to no avail.<br />
the next morning was the start of hell in my life, its fathers birthday and he has his<br />
first attack, (stroke) he can still move but had difficulty talking, and his lip and half of<br />
his face is a little bit deformed.. dad asked mother " is this the end? am I going to die?"<br />
my first mistake was I continued working. we continued with the day's activity being<br />
ignorant that its already a medical emergency.<br />
<br />
at night, we decided to take dad to the hospital, that time my two cars was not in running<br />
condition so we took GRAB, yes that was my first time to use Grab. and not realizing that<br />
that was dad's last ride inside a car. the grab driver was kind enough to help me carry<br />
him down, I am still fit back then and could easily carry 90lbs. dad was very heavy, he<br />
just weighs short of 100lbs. but we cannot carry him.(both me and the taxi driver)<br />
later, I discovered that this is a sign of an impending doom.<br />
<br />
I hate to recall the hour by hour progress and how everything went on. because it just<br />
brings sadness to me.<br />
<br />
we checked in to an unknown hospital in Valenzuela, named Sanctisima hospital<br />
at the hospital. on the first few hours, he can still recall his birthday, age, name,<br />
but as hours pass by, he has difficulty with memory and speech. when he was admitted<br />
to his room, he wanted to go down for a stroll, we were so foolish we did not allow<br />
him to walk, that could have been his last stroll with us.<br />
<br />
at bedtime, we would take turns watching over him, he would smash his to arms against<br />
the bed involuntarily, yes we know he is in pain. but he chose not to let us know.<br />
he told me it was exercise. but we know it is not. he cannot control his muscles anymore.<br />
mother decided to tie one of his hand that is smashing the bedside(steel) she knew its going<br />
to be a hard decision but needs to be done because we cant stand the bruises dad got from the<br />
repeated smashing, around one smash per 2 secs. imagine the difficulty of not being able<br />
to scratch the itchiness.<br />
<br />
the next day dad tried to speak but has difficulty speaking, he told me<br />
"guwa yaw kiu di, uhm ng ku thue kah huwi" he told me not to take the everyday sales<br />
money and the family budget for expenses.<br />
<br />
then his final word, "guwa boh huwat thang kong weh loh" I am not able to speak with you<br />
any longer.<br />
<br />
the next day the wife of Derrick came, and dad was able to recognize her, "AIMEE..."<br />
He spoke, but did not recognize auntie Violeta, Uncle Johny, just a blank stare, we<br />
discovered that in the next few hours, he cannot see anymore, he has lost his vision<br />
permanently.<br />
<br />
I discovered that his hip was swolen from one side and I can tell that he must have<br />
a big fall the morning of Aug 26. and may have damage a tendon from the fall.<br />
<br />
the next day all he can utter is "hoolaahhh!!" "HOOHHH LAAHH!!" which is "oo na!!"<br />
he kept doing that for an hour. then all was silent.<br />
<br />
he now falls into a comma. on August 31.<br />
<br />
I am preparing myself for the worst then. we had a meeting with mother and Derrick<br />
we decided not to bring dad to the ICU and not to revive or put any instruments<br />
because it will only prolong the pain. on Sept 3, our doctor told us to prepare for the<br />
worst, anytime, we may loose him. on the afternoon of that day I was left alone<br />
with dad, I told him everything, my hate for my auntie, all my shortcomings, my fault<br />
for not bringing him to a well known hospital because it was the fastest thing to do<br />
my secret extravagant lifestyle, my girls, everything, he kept squeezing my hand with<br />
such strength as an athlete. and that was our last moment....<br />

<br />
I was not there on his last moment, on his death bed, I was not there, I was late for<br />
2 minutes. I did not witness my worst fear.<br />
he died peacefully in his sleep? no, his breath got short, until he gasped for air and<br />
finally left this world. without me by his side.<br />
he died Sept 4, 2017 530pm<br />

<br />
WHERE IS DADDY?<br />
he is not with us anymore, where is he? I really do not know, honestly.<br />
<br />
its one of the many reason why I kind of stopped writing about my life and<br />
stopped my travels to places. its one of my frustration and untold stress.<br />
but in a way, as I write this, it has been released.<br />
today is the second day of Chinese hungry ghost month. usually this has always been<br />
a cause for concern. but not anymore, I am now a christian.<br />
<br />
I started going to CCF Caloocan to cure my depression and to get away from my<br />
stress and the many troubles that haunted me every night after I lost my dad,<br />
my business, and the house where I stayed for 15 yrs.<br />
everything is getting better now, as days have gone by.it will be 2 yrs this Sept.<br />
I am sure this shall come to pass. <br />
<br />
<br />
death comes like a thief. anytime.<br />
everyone dies. One day, we will all die.<br />
we will stop and the world will just carry on. Lovers will love. Others will<br />
laugh or cry. Sometimes alone.... Sometimes together....<br />
but the radio will keep playing....<br />
But we will be gone.one day. And the radio will keep playing the timeless<br />
Santa Jomari claus medyeys every ber month for years to come.<br />
Only the love you gave, the souls you touched & the people you changed,<br />
will remain. YOUR LEGACY.<br />
<br />
They will carry on for you. pick up where you left off. AND that is the<br />
circle of life.<br />
<br />
friends reading this... love your parents.I had always focused my energy and<br />
time at my shop. never enough time, for dad... and now there is no more time.<br />
<br />
DAD..... Its going to be your Second year without us on tues. Yes.<br />
<br />
Am still doin what I promised. Life goea on..<br />

<br />
this is my first travel fore this year. I was out for quite a long time and missed<br />
a lot of activities and events when we have to move 3 branches and that includes<br />
our house to give way for the demolition of the old lot where my former business was.<br />
its a sad move but I need to just carry on and start anew.<br />

<br />
So ... I booked a grab cab to the meeting place where I was delighted to<br />
see my AHP family, and it was nice to be back. today we traveled to Paranaque,<br />
a City I never thought would have a rich pre war heritage . even if I have not yet<br />
recovered from a 2 week cough, I still insisted to continue because I may not be<br />
able to have a chance to view the highlight of the Paranaque tour, which is<br />
Palacio de memoria and regret it all throughout 2019... so, here is my story.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/CRaMvD8nQSA/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/CRaMvD8nQSA?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></div>
<br />
when we went to our first stop, I learned that Paranaque City public library<br />
started after the war.1945 known as Municipal library, from a small<br />
facility in the municipal session hall.<br />
<br />
when Paranaque became a city in 1998, it was renamed to Paranaque City public<br />
library and the library which we had our seminar/talk, the newer one was build<br />
in 2017<br />
<br />
this is a picture by Arvie Hernandez of how big the meeting place is. the library.<br />
another pic with me in the background is taken by Ms. Pie.<br />

<br />
our first stop was the Paranaque City public library, I was surprised that the AHP tarp was<br />
already hung there at the gate to welcome us.<br />
we all met at the school library, I was so amazed that the library was quite big compared<br />
to other libraries I visited. too bad Caloocan does not have one I know of...so it is quite<br />
impressive, we met Arvie Hernandez and he guided us about the history of Paranaque<br />
we are served breakfast (coffee kakanin) there at the Paranaque City public library.<br />
thanks to our AHP Paranaque coordinator Ralph Chavez for a job well done.<br />
<br />
this is our second stop, the church of St. Andrews image by Allan P. Martinez.<br />
we stayed here for 30 mins. I am not in the group picture because the afternoon<br />
sun is about and perspiring would not be good for my persistent cough.<br />
oh by the way this is the picture of the church. by Arvie Hernandez and<br />
Allan P. Martinez<br />

<br />
our next stop was the old ruins of the 1957 Hernandez Mansion. its called<br />
the white house. eerrrie creepie as it looks its a grand house and you know<br />
when you are joining heritage tours, all is there to appreciate. there is no<br />
room for wild imaginations of the supernatural even if we know they<br />
are just around us.<br />

my business, DEN-R INTERNET bought about by the purchase of Bonifacio<br />
Shopping Center resulting in our unscheduled moving out to a neighborhood<br />
unknown to us. the internet café which was built 13 yrs ago, on Sept 4, 2005<br />
successful and unchallenged for 13 yrs has now been reduced to a 20 unit shop<br />
operating on a garage just outside of the house. business is not doing good.<br />

my printing service has been moved to a location just across our old address<br />
and has been named KUYADEN PAPAPRINT. the business has been doing OK.<br />
I have stayed on my old neighborhood of barangay 81, because I love it here<br />
the people have been my customers my friends and I consider them important.<br />

this neighborhood where children play, where happy laughter can be heard and<br />
a place where we park our cars. this is gone now. its an old pic. its now part of<br />

the landmark of Monumento, which people call, palengke. is now gone.<br />
all that is left is the section of lot where the red building now stands, its rented<br />
and the contract will expire soon. this portion has been rented out. at 6k per slot<br />
so the ones residing inside the left wing of Bonifacio Market has the option to<br />
transfer and move out of Caloocan, or stay in the small area under the red building.<br />

<br />
ALL businesses have been affected here, livelihood, those whose buusinesses<br />
moved across to the "new market", has not been doing quite well, mainly because <br />
the new property here has sealed all but one entrance. so customers need to go to the<br />
foot bridge just to get in the new market. and its a maze inside, 50 plus stalls crumpled<br />
in one location.<br />

EVERYTHING WILL BE GONE ONE DAY, things does not last and will not<br />
last forever. the business, wealth, and your life force. it will be gone one day.<br />
only the universe remains forever.<br />
<br />
<br />
soon there will be 3 condominium units in our area, the first in Monumento's history<br />
the EDSA side will have 168 mall, the mcarthur side a 15 storey lifestyle condo.<br />
the new owners are San Jose Builders.<br />
<br />
in the next couple of weeks, it would be summer, and there will be no parking space for <br />
cars. I would be affected again. need to have a location for my car to park.<br />
<br />
<br />
here in this blog, I will show you the progress of the demolition job that is happening<br />
just in front of our doorstep....<br />

<br />
this structure that is about to rise will change our lives. the lives of everyone in this<br />
community, it would be filled with people from a different level with a different <br />
lifestyle who may look down on others. everything thing here will change. the way <br />
of life. the environment. <br />
I just hope that it would change for the better.<br />

Hello hello its been a long time since I last written any blogs. Yes, I am affected<br />
by the mass exodus of Bonifacio Market tenants, (yes, I am included with the<br />
mass transfer because all of us are asked to leave before Valentines 2019) and<br />
since I moved earlier than they expected, I am still adjusting to the new environment.<br />
I thought this year's Chinese New Year festivities would be the different.<br />

A decade ago, I would'nt dare to imagine my business will end like this.<br />
because there were no known threat or competitors in the span of 10+ yrs.<br />

Until there is a successful attempt to buy the whole lot where my LANSHOP is<br />
standing. we are given til Feb 15, 2019 to vacate. but because the new location<br />
where I am moving to demands we occupy it before Nov 30 or we will not be<br />
given a slot.<br />

<br />
with a heavy heart, I write this blog to inform my friends of my intent to close<br />
down my more than 13 years LANSHOP business DEN-R INTERNET. located<br />
at the lot where new commercial establishments and condo units will rise in<br />
3 yrs time.<br />
<br />
I am currently left with no other option than to wind up my business and<br />
bring our more than a decade long tenant landlord relationship to an end.<br />
<br />
As I am vacating ... kindly forgive me me for any ups and downs during these<br />
years and keep in touch.<br />

Its organized by the Confradia de la Inmaculada Concepcion Foundation in<br />
cooperation with the (I.A.) Intramuros Administration and the AFP the 3 kilometer<br />
procession of beautifully and elaborately-adorned carriages bearing the images<br />
of the Blessed Virgin Mary with her different titles from different parts of the<br />
usually country starts at 4 o'clock in the afternoon from Plaza Roma in front of the<br />
Manila Cathedral and winds its way through the streets of the Walled City.<br />
<br />
The annual procession, now on its 39th year, was held on the first Sunday<br />
of December to commemorate the Feast of the Immaculate Concepcion, which is<br />
celebrated on December 8.<br />
<br />
Catholic devotions to MARY expressed by honoring her in different ways are<br />
based on scripture.<br />
<br />
here are pictures I love to share with people who failed to see the procession<br />
pictures and images are from ate Mabelle.<br />

<br />
A FILIPINO TOY STORY. this is a history of how filipinos play with toys<br />
we know most children play on the streets.<br />
<br />
Aside from the yoyo and the tirador, the doll is always considered one of the<br />
oldest known toy in the Philippines and in the world.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
The Yo-Yo is believed to have originated from a Chinese toy known as the Diabolo.<br />
From China, it is thought that the toy expanded its popularity in two directions. The<br />
first was toward Europe, Ancient Greece to be more exact, and secondly to the<br />
Philippines, in Southeast Asia.<br />
<br />
As for the evolution of yo-yo in the Far East, it went from the favorite pastime of<br />
children to a deadly weapon used both for hunting and warfare. In the 16th century,<br />
Philippines warriors would climb a tree and wait for their prey with a larger, sharpened<br />
device made of rock, which functioned on the same principle as the toy. The word<br />
itself means “come-come” or “to” in Filipino, describing the basic trait of the toy.<br />
Thus, the modern name is considered to be derived from the Filipino language.<br />
<br />
Jump forward another half-a-century, to 1916, when the Scientific American<br />
Supplement published an article titled “Filipino Toys,” which precisely depicted it in<br />
its current form and named it a yo-yo. Twelve years later, Pedro Flores, a Filipino<br />
emigre, opened the first yo-yo manufacturing shop in California and the hype was on.<br />
<br />
Wood continued to be the dominant material for dolls in Europe until the 19th<br />
century. Through the 18th and 19th centuries, wood was increasingly combined with<br />
other materials, such as leather, wax and porcelain and the bodies made more<br />
articulate. It is unknown when dolls' glass eyes first appeared, but brown was the<br />
dominant eye color for dolls up until the Victorian era when blue eyes became more<br />
popular, inspired by Queen Victoria.<br />
<br />
During the 19th century, dolls' heads were often made of porcelain and combined<br />
with a body of leather, cloth, wood, or composite materials, such as papier-<br />
mâché or composition, a mix of pulp, sawdust, glue and similar materials With<br />
the advent of polymer and plastic materials in the 20th century, doll making largely<br />
shifted to these materials. The low cost, ease of manufacture, and durability of<br />
plastic materials meant new types of dolls could be mass-produced at a lower price.<br />
The earliest materials were rubber and celluloid. From the mid-20th century, soft<br />
vinyl became the dominant material, in particular for children's dolls<br />
Gregoria De Jesus also played with dolls, she has a collection of dolls. during her<br />
time. they are now with the Nakpil family.<br />
<br />
it was rare to see playthings in the early 1900s because all toys were generally<br />
made at home, mostly by parents, there were no toy planes, toy guns, only improvised<br />
rag dolls yoyos. at the time, children were more likely to create their own toys from found objects than they were to purchase them, food at the table and freedom were top priority.<br />
they used cans, paper clips, rubber bands, household scraps to make dolls and musical<br />
instruments.only on very special occasion where toys received as gifts from well off<br />
friends or relatives so families of the rich afford to bring home imported toys made<br />
from toy making companies abroad (lke the toy horses, expensive toy trains, rag dolls,<br />
and toy soldiers) when Window dressing was introduced. the Christmas tradition of<br />
filling all stores with toys have found success through shop window promotions,<br />
major department stores over the years have created these legendary toys as window<br />
decors every year as part of the Christmas tradition every Christmas you could see<br />
them shine. I will be talking of toys not only from the Philippines but also from<br />
America, since the Americans introduced toys to well to do Filipinos as an additional<br />
market.<br />
<br />
The earliest modern stuffed toys were made in 1880. They differ from earlier rag<br />
dolls in that they are made of plush furr like fabric and commonly portray animals<br />
rather than humans. but in 1902 Rose and Morris Michtom placed two bears in their<br />
storefront window with a sign that read "TEDDY BEARs" just to lure curious customers<br />
into the store to their surprise customers requested to purchase the bears that they made<br />
specifically for the display by the turn of the century, the First Teddy bear goes on<br />
sale - Feb 15, 1903 and the bear's name was THEODORE ROOSEVELT<br />
(nickname "TEDDY")<br />
<br />
R.W. Sears made the Sears catalog with detailed illustration of each toy, and through<br />
these catalog entries legendary toys such as the Raggedy Ann Doll Viewmaster 3D were<br />
introduced to the public.<br />
<br />
Paper dolls are cut out of paper, with separate clothes that are usually held onto the dolls<br />
by folding tabs. They often reflect contemporary styles, and 19th century ballerina<br />
paper dolls were among the earliest celebrity dolls. The 1930s Shirley Temple doll sold<br />
millions and was one of the most successful celebrity dolls. Small celluloid Kewpie dolls,<br />
based on illustrations by Rose O'Neill, were popular in the early 20th century.<br />
<br />
since the early part of the 20th century, toy companies have supplemented their print<br />
ad with live contest and in store demos. in the early 1930s Pedro Flores collaborated<br />
with newspaper mogul William Randolph to promote the Filipino toy accross the nation<br />
by advertising the yoyo in the blank space of his newspaper. in the 1950s Wham-O<br />
founders Dick Knerr and Spud Melin revived the art of the demonstration when they<br />
send FRISBEE experts to College campuses to promote a new toy.<br />
<br />
the 1930s company Playskool and Fisher Price made toys by studying children'as<br />
behavior during play with hidden cameras.<br />
<br />
Tether car racing began in the late 1930's when some people decided to put a model<br />
airplane engine on a board with four wheels. Within a year there was racing of<br />
beautifully built cars that resembled the oval track cars of the period. but this toy is<br />
considered the most dangerous toy ever made.<br />
<br />
Filipinos also play with doll houses<br />
<br />
Contemporary dollhouses have their roots in European baby house display cases<br />
from the 17th century. Early dollhouses were all handmade, but, following the<br />
Industrial Revolution and World War II, they were increasingly mass-produced and<br />
became more affordable. Children's dollhouses during the 20th century have been made<br />
of tin litho,<br />
plastic, and wood. Contemporary houses for adult collectors are typically made of wood.<br />
<br />
by the way, you heared of Barbie?<br />
her full name Barbara Millicent Roberts, from the town of Willows in Wisconsin. But<br />
Barbie’s predecessor, the Swiss Bild Lilli doll, had an image that wasn’t quite as clean<br />
cut. Unlike other dolls of the time made to resemble babies and infants, Bild Lilli was<br />
all woman with long legs, fashionable clothes and glamorous make-up. Based on a<br />
comic strip character, Lilli was a working girl, described as a ‘blonde bombshell’, and<br />
Lilli dolls were initially sold as an adult novelty.<br />

<br />
Barbie is a well branded product which changed the face of the fashion doll industry<br />
since 1959 Mattel has manufactured a monopoly. Barbie was born on the March 9, 1959,<br />
the day she was officially launched at the American International Toy Fair. Created<br />
by businesswoman Ruth Handler to show little girls that they could be anything they<br />
wanted to be, that ‘a woman has choices’, Barbie quickly became a global icon.<br />
While she may not have visibly aged over the last five decades, Barbie has constantly<br />
reinvented herself, changing her clothes to keep up with the latest fashions and adapting<br />
her image in response to wider social and cultural change with varying degrees of success.<br />

<br />
Influenced by the movie stars of the 1950s, the first Barbie doll was fully made up with<br />
red lips, black eyeliner and perfectly arched eyebrows. She wore a strapless zebra<br />
striped swimsuit and came with either blonde or brunette hair done up in a cute Audrey<br />
Hepburn ponytail<br />

<br />
Then the robot trend began with the introduction of Japanese...<br />
Robot super heroes like Voltes V in 1977. sci-fi animation that features a giant<br />
anthropomorphic robot – only gained a foothold on Philippine soil. But I think given the<br />
sheer brilliance of the merging of excellent storytelling and contemporary (in the 1970s)<br />
cutting-edge science, Voltes V could have won fans across the world including YOU and me.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji_Lg4N28-YClOObWATa4G8TXl-kdwi7NygXs-nFsZbmAllS1y4cT6L_uVef7vpq6wkpLlkLHDqA0s7LiHW4eja_z1CUNvzsg4k3Xi0oKHAp4abInkDVvsojz7mTsGHmkFzvRuVsAPIKUN/s1600/x.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="189" data-original-width="266" height="284" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji_Lg4N28-YClOObWATa4G8TXl-kdwi7NygXs-nFsZbmAllS1y4cT6L_uVef7vpq6wkpLlkLHDqA0s7LiHW4eja_z1CUNvzsg4k3Xi0oKHAp4abInkDVvsojz7mTsGHmkFzvRuVsAPIKUN/s400/x.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
During the series' run, Popy released a diecast metal toy of Voltes V. The toy was available<br />
either with the five Volt Machines sold separately or in a gift set known as the "Volt In Box".<br />
Aside from the Volt Machines combining to form Voltes V, the toy also transformed into<br />
Voltank mode (an alternate vehicle mode wherein the robot lied down face-first with the<br />
Volt Panzer and Volt Lander's wheels on the ground). Voltank mode never appeared in<br />
the series, but was a unique feature of the toy. The boxed set was re-released in 1982<br />
before being repackaged as part of Bandai's Godaikin line for the international market in<br />
1983.<br />
<br />
Popy also released a Jumbo Machinder version of Voltes V. Standing at over 24 inches<br />
in height, the toy featured firing projectile fists and could transform into Voltank mode,<br />
which small children could ride on.<br />
<br />
In 1983 toy companies released programs in which popular toys like<br />
MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE, GI. JOE, TRANSFORMERS were animated stars<br />
of ther own TV shows, and as expected toy sales multipled in relation to the popularity<br />
of the shows.when thse toys are released, kids are encouraged by the packaging to<br />
"collect them all" so the kid that originally requested for one toy now wants five or<br />
six more.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFXNUQr_7778h6zj7CfEXw8s4NXOUosaX55SQkvH9CCf1oMdrXwRFzjfVyhV7e3XDSoDt8PDXW3lN8bmGOBdc5QNpCnJku9w6ULh42JyNrk-VNiCnmMf4_B9FOF91V1pm0g_HmiVo1sGmV/s1600/download.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="168" data-original-width="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFXNUQr_7778h6zj7CfEXw8s4NXOUosaX55SQkvH9CCf1oMdrXwRFzjfVyhV7e3XDSoDt8PDXW3lN8bmGOBdc5QNpCnJku9w6ULh42JyNrk-VNiCnmMf4_B9FOF91V1pm0g_HmiVo1sGmV/s1600/download.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
by the 1980s many toy manufacturers recognized their "dual" audience and began<br />
catering to both kids and adults(collectors) new line of action figures including the<br />
power rangers by Bandi and the inja Turtles by Playmate were placed in clear packaging<br />
that was easy for Filipino kids to open and convinient for collectors to keep sealed.<br />
in the early part of the 1990s Todd McFarlane had been working with Mattel to create<br />
a new line of action figure and created Todd Toys and made Spawn action figures ready<br />
for the first toy fair in 1994. the figured he created were violent sexy and strong they<br />
seemed more like a miniature sculpture than toys. and even parents and old people like<br />
me didnt hesitate to buy those. the world of designer toys has just begun. from stuffed<br />
animals to die cast cars.<br />

For many years, postal stamps have always been a significant part of </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Philippine history. In spite of the advent of electronic mail and text messaging </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
and communications purposes. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a>This goes to show that stamps thrive in the society as history persists to evolve.<br />

<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">can they still produce the excitement we have before?</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">most stamps of veteran philatelist are collected. built as time and age passed.... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">and not BOUGHT.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">Now, anybody with a deep pocket can have vintage stamps.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">including you and me. we buy it. the whole estate lot, the whole collection, and </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">just store it. but does not understand what stamps we bought, the history behind it. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">the story. most of us dont know. including me.</span></span><br />
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #1d2129; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">I started when I was as young as 7yrs old.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">my collection are mostly from inheritance from uncles who are not with us anymore.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">some are from my teachers. my ex-gfs, my friends (who buy as pasalubong). as </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">decades past.. there are no more ways to source out stamps as a gift for free... </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">thats when I started buying them.(2012)</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">how did my elders got me started? I love the colors. just the pictures convinced </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">me to acquire more.through hingi penge system. and penfriends correspondence </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">from I.Y.S. (my first set of penfriends were from Finland, Spain, Indonesia(naging </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">exgf ko, and Philippines)) and as years passed, I began collecting stamps from </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">other parts, sabi ko, aba, unike MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE, STARWARS, </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">TRANSFORMER or GIJOE toyline, Its just soooo impossible to collect em all!! </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">so I shifted to thematic, all flowers, all animals, and yet, mahirap din! aba laki ng </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1d2129;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">animal kingdom! </span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
when I joined the heritage tours of Rence last 2012, I began to learn a lot,<br />
na there is a history in every stamp. so I shifted again, Spanish Philippines,<br />
<br />
Japanese Occupation, American Occupation ang pinag concentrate ko.<br />
<br />
<br />

Milk tea can be made in many flavors, like coffee, chocolate, taro, red bean, or </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
fruity flavors. so a good milk tea requires the balance between sugar, tea, and milk, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
and a unique secret factor that makes it a cut above the rest.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

funeral customs. Funeral offerings can be elaborate and typically include joss<br />
paper squares, lots of currency and household necessities like clothing,<br />
electronics and jewelry.<br />

Joss paper offerings during the Hungry Ghost Festival are less elaborate<br />
because they are intended to appease wandering spirits without families to<br />
care for them. Setting a up makeshift altar at the curb outside your home with<br />
joss paper offerings and food for the ghosts is common.<br />

Laptops, mansions and helicopters: The weirdest paper offerings Chinese people<br />
burn for the deceased to ensure their dead a happy afterlife. Burning joss paper<br />
is a traditional Chinese-Taoist practice that sends money and materials goods to<br />
deceased relatives in the afterlife. It’s common to burn joss paper at funerals,<br />
on ancestor birthdays and during important holidays like the Qingming Festival<br />
and the Hungry Ghost Festival.<br />
<br />
Joss paper customs are rich with symbolism and family history, the type of<br />
tradition you can imagine being shared in Chinese from grandmothers to<br />
their grandchildren. <br />
<br />
joss paper offerings are physical representations of money and daily necessities<br />
like clothing, personal electronics and household goods. The basic notion behind<br />
burning joss paper is that an offering is conveyed into the spirit world through the<br />
fire’s smoke.<br />
<br />
The most traditional type of “everyday” joss paper is made from sheets of coarse<br />
bamboo paper, each decorated with a square of gold or silver foil to represent money.<br />
They come in all different sizes and can be burned “as is” or after being folded into<br />
the shape of the traditional gold ingots used as currency in ancient China.<br />
the earliest joss paper rituals date back more than a thousand years to when paper<br />
coins were burned to please the spirits. Burning joss paper at funerals became<br />
standard practice by the 12th century with the first Chinese immigrants who arrived<br />
during the 19th century.<br />
<br />
As you shop for joss paper, note that variations abound. Joss paper may be<br />
decorated with different seals, stamps, pieces of contrasting paper, engraved designs<br />
or other motifs. Different regions of the world have preferences for the type of joss<br />
paper that is used. or instance, Hell Bank Notes are commonly found in regions where<br />
Cantonese populations dominate, but are rarely seen or used in places such as Taiwan<br />
or Macau, which predominantly use bamboo paper sheets.<br />
<br />
the most common kind of traditional joss paper, 5.5″ x 6″ sheets of bamboo paper<br />
decorated with a small gold or silver square in the center. Beautiful as is, or folded<br />
into the shape of gold ingots.<br />
<br />
These sheets are identical in size to the squares above, but feature a larger<br />
rectangle of gold or silver foil in the center. There’s no meaningful difference<br />
between the two styles, choosing one over the other is just a matter of personal<br />
preference. The Chinese joss paper “spirit money” known as Hell Bank Notes are<br />
commonly used in all manner of contemporary ancestor ceremonies. The most<br />
traditional notes bear the seal of the afterlife’s “Bank of Heaven and Earth,” while<br />
others are printed to resemble legal tender currency from various countries. Bills<br />
feature an image of the Jade Emperor, the Taoist monarch of heaven, and come in<br />
outrageous denominations from 10,000 to 1,000,000,000 dollars to help an ancestor<br />
purchase services, pay off the God of Death or escape punishment.<br />
There are also what they call joss paper dollar bank notes. These Hell Bank Notes<br />
resemble the U.S Dollar. Each bill comes in a 1,000,000 dollar denomination with<br />
an image of the Jade Emperor. <br />

Finally, joss paper crafts are burned to send ancestors the luxuries they lacked<br />
while living. Crafts are most commonly burned for specific relatives at funerals,<br />
on birthdays and death anniversaries and during the Qingming Festival. You’ll<br />
see joss paper houses, cars, servants, airplane tickets and flat-screen TVs. No<br />
extravagance is too large.<br />
<br />
Taking time to care for ancestors in the afterlife ultimately reflects the value<br />
the Chinese place on filial piety and respect for one’s elders and ancestors.<br />
Put in more contemporary terms, burning joss paper provides the opportunity to<br />
make space and take time to remember the loved ones in your life.<br />
<br />
According to tradition, the Chinese believe that the deceased have needs similar<br />
to those in the natural world. Joss paper is burned at funerals and during<br />
important dates thereafter to help the deceased pay off debts, trade for goods and<br />
exist comfortably in the spirit world.<br />
<br />
With this context, joss paper ingots and currency with denominations reaching<br />
into the billions serve an obvious purpose. More contemporary additions like joss<br />
paper clothing, shoes and lengths of fabric also seem practical. I’ll leave you to<br />
form your own opinions about joss paper iPads, sports cars and mansions<br />
complete with servants.<br />
<br />
The Chinese believe that it’s unlucky to arrive in the afterlife empty-handed or<br />
indebted. Consequently, burning joss paper is an essential part of Chinese funeral<br />
customs. Funeral offerings can be elaborate and typically include joss paper squares,<br />
lots of currency and household necessities like clothing, electronics and jewelry.<br />
<br />
so that explain why even funerals are so extravagant. in life and in death.<br />
they wanted everything to be as smooth and luxurious as when they were<br />
living.<br />
