Latest Update on POEA Memorandum Circular No.4
From Inquirer.Net:
POEA suspends memo on employers’ $5,000 repatriation bond (by Veronica Uy)
Good News daw ito! But let’s not be fooled! Huwag po tayong magpaloko. Suspended lang ang memorandum at baka mabago ito sa darating na Lunes. Balak daw nilang dagdagdan ang mga exemptions.
Hindi po exemptions and hinihingi namin, kundi cancellation! We have to continue our protest until they scrap this memorandum.
Mag-ingat po tayo sa kanilang “divide and conquer†tactic. Mr Brion at Mrs Baldoz, style niyo bulok! You already cancelled the memorandum in countries where OFW’s made a lot of noise (Italy, Hong Kong, etc.). Now you are saying that you will review the memorandum to exempt professionals and more countries.
Mr Brion at Mrs Baldoz, mapa-teacher, nurse, doktor, engineer, domestic helper, at kahit ano pang trabaho namin, lahat po kami professionals! Iisa lang ang hinihingi namin! Scrap MC-04!!!
Mga kababayan, magkaisa tayo at huwag tayong magpadala sa kanilang mga “exemptionsâ€.
G Brion at Gng Baldoz, mag-resign na kayo! Wala kayong galang sa ‘ming mga OFW! Lahat kami professional!
Mabuhay ang Samahan Laban sa Katiwalian ng mga Recruitment Agencies at Patakarang MC-04 (SKRAP-MC 4)!
Ituloy po natin ang laban!

Sincerely,

X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie ( 1st official photo)
ohhh boy! Logan is a bad ass in this photo. The Wolverine movie stated for May 2009 will be a big hit. I know that some of the story for the movie might be from the comics ORIGINS. Official photos of the movie are now circulating though out the internet
Flowers on Valentine’s Day
I am just curious if flowers really do the trick to win the love of someone. Isn’t that if we love or want someone, the best to give him or her is what he or she wants?
I found it wasteful to buy flowers worth around 2,000 pesos and the recipient would not be happy about it. It’s the modern times and i guess we should also be practical in what we give to our crushes.
I’m just sharing my opinion. No offense to anybody. 
The Clueless Define love
One of the more popular items in my elementary and early high school days was autograph books. We’d pass them around in class; get our friends and, more importantly, our crushes to sign. They were traditionally divided into 3 parts: personal data including name, address, telephone, likes, dislikes, etc; a dedication page where one writes a message to the owner; and a separate page about love.
I found a couple of them while decluttering and thought that Valentine’s Day was the best time to share how we, the clueless, defined love in those days.

Love Story – Valentines Special
I was 10 and 2 years old, when I first felt this indescribable feeling, she was the only sweet, cute and intelligent girl I knew. We both went to the same school, and of course I always wait for her during class dismissal. We enjoyed our life as simply as we can be. She lived in an exclusive village while I had my home beside their place, a squatter area so to speak. But even though they had all the richness I think of, her parents are so caring and lovable towards me. I just wonder, is it because they don’t have a baby boy in the family? Well, I just don’t know.
We only have a week to go before graduation day. But, I am still speechless in regards with my feeling to the girl whom I believed I fell with, a puppy love? Maybe. One afternoon, after our commencement practice, she proudly delivered the news to me,
“BF, I will be going to a private school for my high school. How about you?â€

An Epic Entry Involving Broccolis, Manboobs, DoTA, Dawson’s Creek, and Tom Cruise
This i probably my first collaborative blog entry with anybody, and I’m liking it. well, Kring and I got tired of whining to each other about how sucky our respective love lives are, so we decided to collaborate and whine to you. So yeah, bear with us on the emoness and all. It is Valentine’s after all.
This totally makes sense AFTER you read the entire thing
KRING: I’ve been single for the past 22 years and I think I’ve somehow flaunted that fact like a tiara on my head. To me, NBSB = high standards. Not. In reality, I’ve cried a little too much thinking that maybe, just maybe, I’m not good enough. You see, guys only started asking me out last year. Hell, I had my first real kiss just before the 2007 elections and I have never received a love letter in my life. Not even anything that says “I crush you. Pautang naman ng pamasahe…†(I have a crush on you. Can I borrow fare money?)
ADE: I actually did that to someone. Y’see, I was broke way back in college and I needed money REAL badly. So I like looked for the ugliest fattest, richest girl I could find. So I wrote the mushiest love letter I could think of and then five paragraphs on I asked for a hundred bucks so I could afford to eat lunch. And then she probably fell in love with me then and there. Yeah, I got my lunch money but I spent the next three years of college with a fat girl hiding in the bushes everywhere I go. Also, it was scary- wait aren’t we writing about the Broccoli of Dating? Yeah, so I just got my 20th Valentine’s Day date rejection. And my fifth restraining order.
