In Your Face!

Ganun pala magpa warts removal. For the first time, nagpawarts removal ako and then after that magpapaacial naman. Hehehe.

Ngayon lang yan kasi ihahabol ko sa medical insurance ko bago mag end contract ko. Sayang naman kung di ko magagamit yun, libreng palinis pa courtesy ng company. Pati si Belle nakisama sa treatment. Hehehe.


Next stop is my eyeglass. Nakacanvass na ako at ok na ok na sa kin ang Oakley Transistor. Medyo may pagkamahal at 12K for an eyeglass pero libre naman kaya go pa din ako. Hehehe.

Isa pang pasasalamat mula sa Aghanistan.

Belated Happy Father's Day po muna sa lahat ng daddys, tatays at papas. Syempre nasa Pinas na ako nun kaya naicelebrate ko ito with my Papa and cyempre with the whole family.

Syempre Gerry's Grill pa din kami. Sino ba ang makakatiis sa crispy aata at sizzling sisig nila after mong magtyaga sa pagkain ng 2 months sa Kabul?

Happy Father's Papa, love you!

***

Pinas mode pa din ako at sa 4th of July pa ako babalik ng Kabul. Sulit ang bakasyon at talagang enjoy.

Bitin an bitin ang oras kaya malamang pass muna ako sa mga friends ko for a short lunch or dinner. Tsaka na lang siguro after ng contract completion by September.

Salamat pala kay Sir Kimo sa masarap na hapunan nung nagstop over kami sa Dubai. Sulit ang crispy pata at sinigang. Dun pa kami nagkita ni Royco at akalain mong parang sya pa ang galing ng Afghanistan kung makakain ng baboy. Hahaha.

Sir Kimo, salamat ng marami at sa uulitin.

Kanina pinatawag ako ng aming Chief Technical Officer (CTO). Akala ko naman may mga VIP complaints na naman ayun pala pag uusapan lang namin yun aking di pagrenew.

Excerpts sa usapan namin:

CTO: Why don't you want to work with me anymore?
Goryo: Sir, I've discussed it to Ubaid (my senior manager) that I'm not renewing anymore.
CTO: Yes I know that's why I'm talking to you now to convince you. Ubaid asked you five times and you have the same answer.
Goryo: Sir, I've decided to go back home and start my own family. I'm married for two years and I have no children yet.
CTO: Is that your decision?
Goryo: It's me and my wife's sir.

Fast forward:

CTO: Just tell me what I can do to convince you. You're a good guy. Have you found a new job?
Goryo: Sir, I have no prior commitment with any agent or company. I really appreciate it sir but I'm really going home after my contract.
CTO: Well, if that's your final decision so be it. If you're not here anymore, just keep in touch.
Goryo: Yes sir, I will.
CTO: If you can't find a job, you can come back here.
Goryo: Thank you sir, appreciate it much.

Pagkatapos ng usapan, palakpak ang tenga ko. Wagi talaga magtrabaho mga Pinoy at bilib sila. Hahaha. Katunayan, pumunta pa sa Pinas HR head namin para magrecruit ng NSS engineer.

Thank you Lord at appreciated ako at ang trabaho ko dito. God is good talaga, all glory to Him!

Kung kelan naman ako magbabakasyon tsaka naman dumating ang basketball ring na inorder. Goodbye na ako sa gym, ito na lang ang gagawin ko pagbalik ko.

Grabe yun unang game namin dito, 3-on-3 basketball at talagang pagod na pagod ako. Ala na talaga yun dating resistensya at ala pang 3 minutes na naglalaro eh hingal kabayo na ako. Ganun pa man, panalo pa din kami. Hehehe.

Para kang nasa international tournament kc mga Americans, Canadians, Australians, Bosnians at Serbians kalaro mo. Sulit ang laro at mas lalong sulit ang huling dalawang buwan ko dito!

Beat LA! Hahaha.

Kwarto ko mismo yung sa 2nd floor sa likod ng ring kaya alam agad kung may kalaro. Hehehe.

Retired Again?

You must have heard it already. Pretty Girl Floyd Gayweather taking time off again in boxing. Well, kinda expected it already and I'm one who believes that the megafight between him and Pacquiao will not push through because he don't want it to happen.

First thing off was the blood test, prior to the second negotiations, Pacman wanted it 24-day before the fight and PBF was yelling 14 days. Now, Pacquiao said he agreed to the 14-day cut off but PBF wants it random ala Olympic style drug testing.

Next thing in my mind was the purse. Yes, they will each recieve $30 M for the fight. Before, it was 50-50 split on the purse. But, once Pacquiao agreed to the drug test procedure, I believe that PBF will cry out the he should get a 60-40 split beacause of this and that.

The 1-2 year layoff PBF said was I believe his last resort of excuses not to fight Pacquiao. But I didn't saw it coming this early. There were also rumors of his rematch with Dela Hoya. Come on, the guy can't box anymore.

Remember what he said after the Mosley fight? "I will continue to go out there and fight the best fighters available." Now he's singing a different tune.

Totally Mayweather, he'll fight up the fighters when they are off their prime. Yes, Pacman-Mayweather will happen in 2020 maybe.

Two games on the NBA finals and we have a split. Lakers winning Game 1 but C's coming back strong in Game 2.

Ray Allen's super hot shooting (Finals record 8 trifectas) and Rondo's all around game again was the key. Yeah, Pierce was 2 of 10 so Laker's fans be prepared. They will say, Kobe's with 5 fouls early but a win's a win.

Three straight games in the Garden. Will we celeberate come Sunday? This is one issue we raised before about the Cs defending their home turf. I hope they can and don't let the series come back to Cali.

Beat LA! Beat LA!

I recieved a mail this morning from my friend in Suncell. Gotta love the pic. The best Kobe shot in his entire career.

Laptop?

My very first owned laptop, a Sony Vaio VPCCW21FX/W. For the first time, nagkaroon ako ng sariling laptop. Mamimiss ko malamang tong Dell Latitude na pahiram ng kompanya sa kin.

Sulit to, i3 processor, 4gb ddr3 ram at 500gb. Pangtrabaho at pang gaming. Hehehe. Thank you Lord for another blessing! God is good all the time.

Rivalry Version 2010

So it is time. Will LA repeat or will Cs get their 2008 form? So many storylines for this series and we'll gonna break it down for you.

This matchup will define the series.


Backcourt - Lakers have the edge definitely because they have Kobe in their side. Celtics don't have Posey anymore so you will see a lot of Allens (Ray & Tony) and Rondo covering him. On the Celtics offense, Ray Allen should be aggresive enough to take advantage of the smaller Fisher. Kobe will definitely guard Rondo. You don't want your best player to lose too much energy on to fighting screens off Celtics' offense via Ray Allen. Back in 2008, Rondo was considered the weakest link for the Celtics but this time around, he is their best all-around player. Rondo's playmaking will determine the series.

Frontcourt - Will Pau Gasoft be tough enough to bang up with Boston's very physical D? Yes, Andrew Bynum will be joining them now but it doesn't matter to the Celtics. Perkins proved he can play tough and do one-on-one coverage on the post, hello Dwight Howard. Rejuvenated Rasheed and Garnett will be a difficult matchup for Gasol. Lakers only edge is the 3 position. We all know that Pierce has a very difficult time playing against the bigger and tougher Artest.

Bench - Edge is to Celtics. They have Rasheed, Nate, Big Baby Davis and Tony Allen for them. We all watched the Lakers-Suns series and how the Lakers bench's poor play almost cost them the series.

Coach - Phil Jackson has the experience but if you will see the two final series he lost against Pistons in 2004 and Celtics in 2008, he can't rely mostly on his triangle. These two teams play very tough and very quick to adjust on defense and this Celtics 2010 is well, back to their old form. Doc Rivers is I believe is the greatest motivator and the best coming off in set plays off the timeout. And as I believed, this serious will be contested even on the last seconds.

X factor - Ron Artest will play the most critical role for the Lakers in the series. Can he limit Pierce and make him work on the defense as well? We saw Pierce struggle against the Cavs primarily because he's tired on guarding Lebron. If Artest will be a factor on offense, Pierce will have a long night. As for the Celtics, KG's offense is well needed. He's not that aggresive enough during the last series against Orlando. They need his production and aggresiveness.

Lakers have homecourt and we know as well that Celtics has been losing in their own floor in the playoffs. Overall, Lakers have the edge in winning this but don't be surprise if the Celtics will win it. Series will be over in 6 games.
