I lost my N2600c phone on my way back home to Iligan. It was 5 o’clock in the morning when the boat arrived at the pier of Cagayan de Oro and I was still very sleepy. I rode a jeepney from the pier to the bus terminal and didn’t even notice that a man, who sat beside me, slipped his hand inside my pocket to grab my phone. Sad thing was I didn’t feel anything. Maybe because I was drowsy or because of the heavy bag I placed on my lap. I even saw the man jump out of the vehicle when we swerved to road leading to the terminal. Funny thing was that it never crossed my mind that he had my phone. I only knew it when I got out of the jeepney, in front of the bus terminal. And so there goes my phone (the one my bheiby gave me).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"&gt;&lt;span style=";color:black;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"&gt;&lt;span style=";color:black;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;Just last week, I was very happy (understatement) because I realized that what had happened may have been a blessing in disguise. My bheiby – my true gift – gave me another phone – a Nokia 6680 S60v2 Symbian Smartphone that I longed to have.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"&gt;&lt;span style=";color:black;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"&gt;&lt;span style=";color:black;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;The phone contained all the basic features that I have longed for in a Smartphone. The best thing was that it supports Symbian OS which supports more than a thousand apps on the market. Until now, I still enjoy looking on the internet for apps that I would really need in my daily activities. To make life more easier I guess. Besides, that’s what Smartphone’s were intended to do, right?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"&gt;&lt;span style=";color:black;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal"&gt;&lt;span style=";color:black;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;Truly, the best gift that ever happened to me is not the new handset I received, but my loving bheiby who continues to support me in all of my endeavors.

More than six months of grueling tasks (mostly studies) hindered me from sitting/lying down and watching it, from noon until midnight – quite some feat for me since I eventually get bored watching TV/movies.

It makes us believe that we really are human. In my case, I proved I am normal. Being normal doesn't mean I know my inner self.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For more than 2 months now, I have been waiting for something to happen on this miserable life. "I must be condemned", as I would put it. I stare at something distant without even looking at something specific. People pass and go on through with their routines around this house and I am here writing this--whatever this is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People around me tend to be drawing farther from my inner circle. I find myself blankly staring at grand &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;sceneries&lt;/span&gt;. Imagining what life would be if time turned backwards. Wondering if people would still walk upright.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Didn't you even wonder how that would be?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have been born to believe that reality supersedes fantasies as the norm. While this may be true for most of us, there are others who still believe in supernatural beings. Is God a reality or a packet of our imagination? Can science prove that atheists have been right all along?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the moment of writing this, plenty of similar questions showing uncertainties are being asked. A mob gathers to worship their deities while on the other side of town another group of people are proving them wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who will win in the end?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who are to be called insane?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ones who believe in what they see or the ones who just want to believe?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are questions yet to be answered. There is no absolute answer to any question. Another question leads to another.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4948379845667587486-6295062924746804567?l=nvktus.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nvktus.blogspot.com/feeds/6295062924746804567/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://nvktus.blogspot.com/2009/03/standing-on-ledge.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4948379845667587486/posts/default/6295062924746804567'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4948379845667587486/posts/default/6295062924746804567'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nvktus.blogspot.com/2009/03/standing-on-ledge.html' title='Blabbering of a Sleep-Deprived Person'/><author><name>Francis Rey Balolong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10947104111322207892</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ySXaf25CLJw/SaSTax0tBVI/AAAAAAAAAAM/qxfhDaQW4zI/S220/bheiby+%3B-).jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4948379845667587486.post-3207080366361754782</id><published>2009-02-26T12:27:00.013+08:00</published><updated>2009-03-11T02:34:32.445+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ONLINE'/><title type='text'>LOOKING FOR A JOB THAT SUITS YOUR NEEDS?</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style="  ;font-family:Tahoma;font-size:12px;"&gt;&lt;h1   style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px;  border-top-width: medium !important; border-right-width: medium !important; border-bottom-width: medium !important; border-left-width: medium !important; border-top-style: none !important; border-right-style: none !important; border-bottom-style: none !important; border-left-style: none !important; border- margin-top: 6px !important; margin-right: 0px !important; margin-bottom: 30px !important; margin-left: 0px !important; font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif !important;color:initial !important;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style=""&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style=""&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" white-space: pre; font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.odesk.com/" target="_blank"&gt;oDesk.com -  The Marketplace for Online Workteams and Freelancers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;p class="intro"  style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px;  margin-bottom: 12px; font-family:Tahoma, sans-serif !important;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;The best approach to online work is the one that creates success for both buyers and providers.

&lt;/span&gt;I personally think of this as a good job opportunity for those service providers who are looking for part-time employment around the globe without the need to travel/transfer to another location. They can do the job at home and work anytime they want. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;It might be hard to look for an job and get hired at first but there are plenty of new openings every month. The best thing about it is that oDesk.com does the work of listing the jobs and categorize them according to the skills you can provide. You can subscribe to their email service, which sends you the jobs and skills you enlisted for, or you can look on the website for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;AS LONG AS THERE ARE BUYERS, SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL EXIST!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Ponder on that for a moment and see for yourself. This might be your door to having a part-time job that might turn out to be your job for the next days, months, or years to come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4948379845667587486-3207080366361754782?l=nvktus.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nvktus.blogspot.com/feeds/3207080366361754782/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://nvktus.blogspot.com/2009/02/odeskcom-marketplace-for-online.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4948379845667587486/posts/default/3207080366361754782'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4948379845667587486/posts/default/3207080366361754782'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nvktus.blogspot.com/2009/02/odeskcom-marketplace-for-online.html' title='LOOKING FOR A JOB THAT SUITS YOUR NEEDS?'/><author><name>Francis Rey Balolong</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10947104111322207892</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ySXaf25CLJw/SaSTax0tBVI/AAAAAAAAAAM/qxfhDaQW4zI/S220/bheiby+%3B-).jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4948379845667587486.post-3988811136685250289</id><published>2009-02-25T09:41:00.015+08:00</published><updated>2009-02-26T13:08:53.375+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='POEMS'/><title type='text'>The Poem That Started It All</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 20px;
