Tomorrow is another big day in Philippine sports. Because tomorrow is the much awaited fight between Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas.
The Philippine pride and pound-for-pound king, Pacquiao will go up against his latest challenger, the Puerto Rican powerhouse Cotto.
To be honest, I don’t really watch boxing… at least not until the day I started blogging.
Never in my entire life have I paid attention to boxing. But since I started blogging I began to be conscious of not only boxing, but other things that are happening today – even things that don’t even concern me.
And with less than 24 hours before the Pacquiao-Cotto fight, I’d like to share my thoughts, not only on this particular fight, but on every fight that Pacquiao has.

 Apologies to all smokers…
Darn! And I even have to ask apologies, when smokers… or at least most of them, don’t even care how bad second hand smoke can affect you.
Sure, everybody has a right to burn their own lungs, but others have a right to breathe clean air too. But the way it’s happening now, smokers seem to impose their rights more than non-smokers do.
Of course, there are considerate smokers too, like my friend Jan (who I hope is now a successful quitter), who walks away whenever that lighted stick beacons, even if it’s just Chuchi who would keep him company.

Since it will be back to our ‘regular programming’ as life should go on, I’d like to write more about Christmas. But this time, instead of the childish Christmas wishes for a merry holidays and ‘choo-choo’ train, I’d like to think of the opportunity that the season would bring. Maybe it’s not yet too late to prepare my business cards so I can distribute them to friends and other gatherings that I may get into in the coming days.

A lost is a lost, no matter what you do, there’s no way to bring back what was gone… or who was gone. You have the right to stop and wallow in the misery of the lost… but only for a while.
The truth is, you can cry, you can stop living, go into seclusion, isolate yourself from the rest of the world… but while you’re doing that, the world won’t stop. It wouldn’t even slow down and wait for you to recover…

I have always been the impatient one. When I want something, I want it at the soonest possible time… and most of the time, I want more than what I really can achieve. Maybe it’s bad, but I believe that when you dream, you might as well dream big. Just like a Modern Furniture that I wishing for. I know it might not complement the native sala set that I have right now, but I’ll just find a place in the house for the native one. Modern furniture looks cool. I always wanted a reclining couch when I was young.
I have too many aspirations in life, I know. But I also believe that they would all come true… one by one.
