A story about Illiteracy

I remember many years ago, a young teenage girl aged about 15 was working in our family as a helper. She was new to our place, in fact it was her first time to see a "city". She grew up in a very poor environment. Her father is a farmer and her mother wash clothes of richer people - "labandera". She finished until grade 2 only and cannot read well.

Before my mother accept her to work, we asked her parents if it is fine with them to send their daughter to work even if she did not have a good education yet; and she was still very young. Her mother said, "that is what the best for us right now, we needed enough money for our daily living. I'm allowing her to work for our sake. Please accept her as your helper" to my mother. Lets keep her in the name Sarah, not her real name.

She has been a good and obedient helper to us. After a few weeks of pf work, our trust to her is increased. We taught her many things with regards to her work. We taught her how to buy things in the market and she did a good job. She did all things for us so perfectly.

One day, we sent her to the same market where she used to go to buy the things we needed. It was a usual afternoon for her. But one thing that is not usual that time - she was asked to buy some three pads of intermediate paper in some paper station near the market. We know the very fact that it would be her first time to buy that stuff and so my mother gave her detailed instructions as to the 'whats' and 'wheres' including the 'hows'. When asked if she understood, she answered YES. She was asked if she had questions, she said none. And so there she goes to the market with our full trust.

After almost four hours, she did not return back home. We searched for her in the market and to the stores where we usually buy the things we needed. The vendor said, "oh, she was here earlier to buy some stuffs". We asked again in the other stalls, and we received the same reply. We searched for her almost all the corners of the market and found no Sarah. The vendors said she'd been here and bought the things she needed to buy, therefore she went to the market and bought the things she needs to buy.

She really did not came back that evening until we found her early in the morning sleeping outside our house. She looked tired and a bit dirty with every thing she bought the other day laid in the ground. We woke her up and asked her what happened...

Find out more next week....

My Yahoo Mail was hacked!!

Notice to all Yahoo mail users.

The other day, I was on the rush. I checked my email and I saw that there were about 10 unread messages for me on that day. One of which is an email from a friend of mine who is now in Philadelphia, US. Another email in which I was not able to read that time yet is an email from Friendster.com stating that I have a New Message in my friendster account. Most of these other messages are coming from Friendster.com providing me notices that there are recently updates on my friendster friends list, Including blog updates from friends. One most important email that I recieved that time (by which I wasn't able to read yet due to "rush" circumstances), aside from the email I recived from that friend from Philidelphia is another email that I recieved from an agency that I was applying for a job. But because I was in the hurry, I need to go outside to do my business first before I'll read the message, I was able to read my emails later that night.

Surprisingly, when I got logged in into my yahoo email account that night. I noticed that most, I mean all of my recent email is already marked as read. The email that I talked about earlier which I am hundred percent sure is unread and never been read by me before I logged out my yahoo email account has already been read!! All of the recent email from friendter automated mail dilevery has been deleted!!! After that shocking discovery, I somewhat panicked. Asking myself who could have opened these emails. I am quite sure my sisters do not know my passwords and they do not know any hacking techniques. And I am quite sure that I have logged out my yahoo mail before I left. Thus concluding that my family are not responsible for this blatant crime!!!

What could be possibly happened here? I asked myself very puzzled.

Could it be that my yahoo mail account has been HACKED? or does my sisters or any family members knows password recovery strategies or do they any password recovery programs in which I do not know?

To know more about this, please come back to this site next week to find out what happened!!
Please bookmark this page or add this to your favorites!

PS I do know now why these happened so please stay put!

Survivor Philippines - Premiered Sept 15 08 - GMA - 7

Survivor Philippines Premiered September 15, Monday Aired on GMA -7 had finished its first day of 39 days of surviving strategies. Paolo Bediones as the host simply "mimic" the US version's host Jeff Probst, of course in Filipino dialect, in such a way that this Filipino version of Survivor would somehow create an atmosphere of Survicor similar to the one hosted by Jeff_Probst.

Survivor is a popular reality television game show format produced in many countries throughout the world. In the show, contestants are isolated in the wilderness and compete for cash and other prizes. The show uses a progressive elimination, allowing the contestants to vote off a tribe member, until only one final contestant remains and wins the title of "Sole Survivor". The format for Survivor was created in 1992 by Charlie Parsons, and the first production of it was the Swedish show Expedition: Robinson in 1997. source: wikipedia.com

Hiro Nakamura - Heroes

One of the most awaited movie series in television today is the opening of Heroes Season 3 premiers on September 22, 2008, Monday. The title of this Season is "Villain" where it has rumored that most Heroes will become Villains if not all. I bet in this season, Hiro would contribute a big help to all of them.

Heroes is a very good movie series akin to Smallville, etc. The story is about random people who discovered themselves having extraordinary powers distinctively. Every body seems to have their own world and their uniqueness and some of them do not like what they have and some do like. Some use their powers for good and some use it for evil. One character could fly, another could predict the future through paintings, move things, telelport, stop time, read mind, and many more.

My favorite character in this film is Hiro Nakamura from Japan who possess the ability to stop the time and teleportation. In the film, it is technically called "Bending of time and space". Hiro could teleport and at the same time he could go back in time/go to the future or stop time simultaneously.

I could assure you to those who haven't heard about this awesome film. It would surely take your breathe away so watch! You can download it from here.

Problematic Woman Made Scandal Inside the Church

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY - September 12, 2008 - A woman of unknown name and age came to San Isidro Parish - Eco Church one wet evening of September 12 during the last day for the pre Archdiocesan Youth Day (AYD) Pilgrimage Cross celebration. The woman according to witnesses was at first roaming around the dark, unlighted (lights turned off) areas outside the church proper. She was found in those areas talking to herself and seems out of her mind. Later at around 8:00 in the evening when the program of activities is about to begin and most youth have gathered together in, the woman started to catch our attention. She started to have a raised voice and acting as if a crazy "Sissa" of of Jose Rizal's Novel Noli me Tangere, but never mentioned the names of Basilio and Crispin. As she was doing her "drama" (she looked as though acting), she directly went to the statue of the Blessed Mother saying "Mamamiry, mamamiry".

"KSP lang yan" I heard one of the young people around.

When she realized everyone seems to be ignoring her, she tried to get more of our attention and went to some young ladies who participated in the activity. She having a bad smell, caused them to get scared. One of the Council member went to her and bring her out. This triggered her and started to get a little wild and started to say curses. Fr Harnifer Godinez SSJV, Youth Moderator of the parish; one of the resident priest to talk to her a bit and try to calm her. But the woman seems to get more aggressive and somehow hates priests. She rans towards Fr Harni and trying to hurt him but she was stopped by some young men. The woman eager to hurt the priest spit saliva on him and it hit on his clothes.causing other young girl to receive some. The crowd seem to get scandalized and taken aback by the woman's behavior. Very soon, the Church's security guard came and dragged her out the Church.

Welcome

Today, the opening of this newly created blog, September 12, 2008, (GMT+8)two days before the birthday of my friend Mark Andrew.

I have invited some to contribute here. Please leave comments and suggestions.
