everything you know will change


It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quite thought
Which then turned into a quite word

And then the word grew louder and louder
'Til there was a battle cry
I'll come back when you call me
No need to say goodbye

Just because everything's changing
Doesn't mean that it's never been this way before
All you can do is try to know who your friends are
As you head off to the war

Pick a star on the dark horizon
And follow the light
You'll come back when it's over
No need to say goodbye

You'll come back when it's over
No need to say goodbye

Now we're back to the beginning
It's just a feeling and no one knows yet
But just because they can't feel it too
Doesn't mean that you have to forget

Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
'Til they're before your eyes
You'll come back when they call you
No need to say goodbye

You'll come back when they call you
No need to say goodbye

- The Call

from here to the next


This is to tender my resignation from the Cagayan de Oro Chamber of Commerce and Industry Foundation, Inc. effective June 15, 2008.

Being the Secretary General/Executive Director of the Oro Chamber has given me the chance to gain new lessons and meet and work with the leaders of our local business community. It has also given me the opportunity of sharing the experience I have gathered and the education I continually try to expand to the delivery of the mission and vision of the organization.

With the chamber, the noble work of being a conduit for development as well as my personal growth has been enormous, but I also believe that there is always time to move on and elevate the cycle of creating and helping others while learning in the process. My highest regards always to you, the board of trustees, the professional team, and to the general membership.

Yours sincerely.

serious guerilla shopping

I shop as if I go to battle. I enter a boutique and stand in a vantage point, not touching anything. Then I look. And somehow, I would know. What it is and where it is. And I'd go for it.

Always, it's love at first sight. And did I say this is when I go shopping and not when I enter a room and see someone interesting?
