pasko sa binilanggo

my officemates were singing some christmas songs a while ago when suddenly they went from English to Cebuano (our dialect). there is this one song that really struck me. here is the lyrics (bisaya version and the translated version.)








Pasko sa Binilanggo

Sa gikauban ko pa
Ang mahal nakong ginikanan
Inig abot sa Pasko
malipayon, masadya ang tanan.
Karon ay wala na
ang Pasko ko ay kagul-anan
ako karon ani-a na
sa mabugnaw nga bilanggo-an

Nabilanggo ako
sa kaso nga sanglit lamang.
Naapil sa Barkada
sa salang way nahibaw-an.
Wa nay mahimo pa
isa ako ka sentensyahan.
Bisan magbasol man ako
maoy badlis sa kapalaran.

Korus:

Meri Krismas na lang
Sa akong mga minahal
Sa akong mga kahigalaan
Sa malipayong puluy-anan
Ako may nag-antus
Wa magpaabot nga kaloy-an
I-ampo lamang ninyo ako
ug Meri Krismas na lang.

Meri Krismas na lang
sa mga tawong way kasing-kasing
nga nagduot kanako
aron ako mabilanggo.
Kanang pagduot nyo
ay ako na nga gikalimtan
ayaw kahadlok nga ikaw
ay ako nga pahimungtan.

A Prisoner’s Christmas

When I was still
with my loving parents
comes Christmas
we were all happy and joyful.
Now this is all gone.
My Christmas is just a misery
Here in a cold prison cell.

I was jailed for a petty reason
Implicated with friends
in a crime I didn’t commit.
I can no longer do anything
they have already sentenced me.
Though I regret
I surrender to fate.

Chorus:

Merry Christmas is all I can wish
to my loved ones
to my friends
to my happy home.
Even if I suffer
I do not expect to be pitied.
Just pray for me and may you
have a Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas is all I can wish
to the heartless people
who sent me to prison.
I have already forgotten
what you did to me.
And don’t be afraid
I won’t blame you.

kodak M853

introducing my latest camera =)


finally, after not having a real digital camera for a year i finally have one hehehe. i got this for 10K only the original price was 14K. Currently, Kodak has a promo. They are accepting old cameras (may it be digital or analog, old or new) to be traded with this beautiful baby. So without thinking i traded my old camera with this one hehehe. anyways there are no regrets because my old cam is kinda bulky and only has 3.2 MP and its kinda broken hehehe. oh yeah! kodak will still accept your camera eventhough it is broken. and the best part is i only bought that camera for 2.5K and they accepted it for 4K (this price is fix).

hancock


Last week my friends and I went to see Hancock, I think it was Thursday but anyho' the movie was great BUT, yeah there's a very big BUT, i was on the verge of vomiting after watching it. You see the cameraman might be or must be an amateur because he couldn't keep the camera steady. At first I thought it was just me, I haven't been to any movie house for few months and I haven't sat in the deluxe area for weeellll few years hehehe but NO it wasn't me it really was the cameraman! Hmp... story was good but the cameraman sux.

High "D" Person

Last Monday, June 2, we had a training/seminar/workshop/teambuilding. One of the activities was answering some sort of self survey and guess what? I found out that I'm a "D" person (a DOMINANT person) heheh... 'nywayz here is the result of the so-called self survey.

What Drives Them?
results and challenges

Strengths vs. Weakness
persistent - inflexible
risk taker - decisive

Responds best to others who:
gives direct answers
sticks to business
gives freedom for personal accomplishment

Behavior under tension:
autocratic/dictator

Needs others who:
Follows through on routine projects

Would benefit from:
listening


SUMMARY:

My ideal world is where I have CONTROL
I want to do it MY WAY
I like to CHANGE things
To convince me, I need to know WHAT
My greatest fear is LOSING CONTROL


so I am a DOMINANT PERSON afterall
