Mulan's Decision

I loved the new Mulan movie as much as the original one despite the negative reviews of people around. One part of the 1998 classic though that was not that emphasized in the 2020 version was Mulan's Decision. That scene was so epic and beautiful especially with Jerry Goldsmith's score that I decided to rearrange some scenes in the live action movie and use Mr. Goldsmiths awesome score. Initially tried uploading it in YouTube, but it was automatically blocked, so I'm just sharing it here instead.

I just wanted to see how 2 beautiful elements from both movies go together.

 

Thank You, Mama Editha

Dear Mama Edith, 

Next week will be three years since Papa passed away, and I still don’t think it has truly sunk in that he is gone. And now you too..

I don't think it will ever sink in that I'll go home to Barili, and not see you both anymore.

Finally though, you can breathe easy again.

Finally, you are reunited with Papa.

Finally, you are Home.

Nine children, 15 grandchildren & 18 great grandchildren.

You have lived a full life, Ma.

You are so very loved and deeply missed.

Give Papa Pete, Uncle Bobby & Kuya Carlo a hug from me.

Tell them I miss them too.

I love you, Ma.

Until we meet again. 💔

The Greatest Pain in Life

The greatest pain in life 

is not to die, but to be ignored. 

To lose the person you love so 

much to another who doesn't care at all. 

To have someone you care so about so much throw a party... 

and not tell you about it. 

When your favorite person on earth 

neglects to invite you to his graduation. 

To have people think that you don't care. 

The greatest pain in life, 

is not to die, but to be forgotten. 

To be left in the dust after another's great achievement. 

To never get a call from a friend, just saying "hi". 

When you show someone your innermost thoughts and they laugh in your face. 

For friends to always be too busy to console you when you need someone to lift your spirits. 

When it seems like the only person who cares about you, 

is you. 

Life is full of pain, 

but does it ever get better? 

Will people ever care about each other, 

and make time for those who are in need? 

Each of us has a part to play 

in this great show we call life. 

Each of us has a duty to mankind 

to tell our friends we love them. 

If you do not care about your friends 

you will not be punished. 

You will simply be ignored... 

forgotten... 

as you have done to others. 

Life in a Day (July 2020)

I recorded and joined YouTube's Life in a Day, last July 25. I sent in raw videos of my whole day, hoping that it will be included in the final movie.

In the meantime, here's a shorter and edited version of my day on July 25.

Charles Basillote (1980-2020)

A week ago (July 8), one of closest friends since Elementary passed away because of this damn COVID-19. It was supposed to be his 13th day at the hospital where he has been conscious and recovering. He was still chatting in our group chat.

And then we saw his brother's FB post.

We will never, ever forget you Charles. I cry all of a sudden when I think back of all the beautiful memories of 29 years. 

Until we meet again.

LIFE in a (Half) DAY | Working from Home

A little glimpse of my life from the time I wake up to after lunch break, working from home since we're still under the longest ECQ in the world.

Fresh Meat Delivery At The Time of ECQ in our City

I featured our Grocery and Fruits Delivery "suki" in a previous video, and today, I featured our Meat Delivery courtesy of Virginia Farms' The Pork Shop. This video is not sponsored, just want to show our little appreciation to them for the hassle-free ordering and delivery, and the clean supply of meat.

For those interested to order and have clean, fresh meat delivered, just send them a message at their Official Facebook Page.

Going to the Office during ECQ/GCQ

Just a short glimpse of my life during work days when I go to the office while the city is still under ECQ then GCQ. I already posted my vid walking from Busay to the city. 

In this vid, it's from Imus Avenue going inside the office. We are still working with skeletal force, and clients are only allowed until the lobby, so you will see less people in the office for now.

Yes, after 2 months of working from home, we were directed to be back at the office starting the last week of May.
