A Tribute to the soul of COSAP…

Saying goodbye to someone who has made such a huge impact in our lives is difficult.  But if we look back on the good things he has done and the best times we spent together, the pain could not compensate the degree of happiness we felt… that for once in our lives, our paths crossed and he has definitely left footprints in our hearts.

Tito Oskie (Mabilog), you will always be remembered and your memories will always stay.  You are like a father to me and because of you, I met a lot of people that I call friends.  When I look back to what I was and what I have become, it
is you and your encouragement that shines through those times.  You have molded me into a better person.  You inspire me not to be selfish but to give myself to others.  You and your words, thoughts, actions and yes your memories will always make a difference… in my life and in the lives of the other people.  Paalam, Tito Oskie!


*Oscar C. Mabilog… a Rotarian and the head of the Cebu City Office for Substance Abuse Prevention (COSAP).  “Cosap, under Mabilog, was synonymous with aggressive anti-drug campaign. Mabilog combined media savvy to raise people’s awareness of the problem with the implementation of noteworthy projects. That made Cosap a leader in the local campaign against drug abuse and Mabilog one of its leading advocates and news sources. “

*the background song is by Steve Green entitled “Find Us Faithful” is the theme of every training that we conducted with Tito Oskie.

Yesterday, I got a lovely postcard from Greece.  It was a lovely postcard no doubt.  But what I love about it the most is the thought and the message written at the back of it.  It gave me a fuzzy feeling when I got it.  It’s nice to know that you are thought of while they are enjoying their holiday.
Mami, this is my way of saying thanks to you.  You must be surprised seeing the picture.  Those were the days mami.  Although lain pa kaayo tag mga nawong diha, but I treasure such experience with you.  Thank you so much for the friendship.  You know that I always treasure it no matter how many more friends we got, you’re still the one on top!  I love you, Mami Posh!

Damn You!

yes i’m still up and was chatting with Eric (my elementary classmate and my fave chatmate in YM).  I had a great time but not until he mentioned the word - SIOMAI!  from that moment on, i can’t take it out of my mind.  gosh! i am craving for it these wee hours in the morning.  no drama, i feel like crying.  damn you, eric! i am drooling for it now and i can only have a wishful thinking of how it tastes especially when i dip it in the spicy sauce with calamansi, vinegar and soy sauce.  i’m not craving for just any kind of siomai.  no offense to harbour city, i do like their siomai but i love the siomai and i crave for the ones that can be bought at the corners of the street like the ones in fuente oval or at our friend’s siomai stop. tomorrow, i’m going to go to a filipino store if i can find a ready made siomai to satisfy my craving. if not, i’ll just have to make one myself.  it may not taste the same but i just have to put an end to my misery!

i have been with multiply for 3 years now.  at first this was just a place for me to store my pictures in case our pc would break loose but things change at the course of time.  i meet new friends, acquaintances and got in touch with old ones too.  everyone in my contact list seemed very interesting and they have got their stories to tell and it’s always nice to know that these people who live in far distance from you, share common interests with you.

The other day i got a call from one of my multiply contact - Ate Anna.  we have been planning to meet each other after that trip they made here in Florida.  we have also been talking a lot on the phone, sharing giggles and exchanging teases too.  we had so much fun phoneline and online that we decided it would be nice to finally meet up in person.  And this was definitely the time!
