Today we must fight: STOP SOPA AND PIPA!

SOPA and PIPA is a trending subject in the internet  this past days. Even though this two bills was proposed in the congress of USA a lot more earlier, this subjects caught the netizen's interest only this past few days. Just this January 18-19 2011 Wikipedia had a movement called the blackout , a movement against this bills. This movement caused for netizen's to give importance to these matters.

But what really is SOPA and PIPA?

how will it affect the internet?

Stop Online Piracy Act aka "SOPA"

Protect IP ACT aka "PIPA"

ARTICLES:

• Even though Megaupload's case isn't really because of SOPA and PIPA this case is much alike on what will happen on these uploading sites even though it's really not their fault but the fault of the users.

• Wikipedia's protest

• to support this cause click this link SOPASTRIKE or this

OPINION:

In my personal point of view basing from what i read on a lot of articles, videos etc these bills will really greatly harm the Internet. Firstly because this will hinder the "freeness" of the internet. SOPA and PIPA would put the burden on website owners to police user-contributed material and call for the unnecessary blocking of entire sites. Small sites won't have sufficient resources to defend themselves. Big media companies may seek to cut off funding sources for their foreign competitors, even if copyright isn't being infringed. Some foreign sites would be prevented from showing up in major search engines. And, SOPA and PIPA build a framework for future restrictions and suppression. Sites no matter what they are will be shutdown if found with even one content which violates copyright. The other useful information even though without any violation will be included because of just one content. You could watch the video or read articled which is posted above for other harmful effects of these two bills.

THIS IS MY WAY OF OPPOSING SOPA AND PIPA.

 WE MUST UNITE TO PROTECT THE  WELFARE OF THE INTERNET! 

SPREAD THE WORD TO OTHERS!

_____________MY TIMELINE______________

The People:

As stated above I will also write here some of the people who made an impact to my life in 2011, family excluded. This year rather putting their names I've decided just to use aliases.


The collective of K-pop and everything nice : My new found circle of friends. The second group of friends closest to me. The group of individuals that frequently benefits on my generosity. One of the reasons that make me want to go to school :)  Hope that I will be still together with this guys even after graduation :).Will miss them for sure ! 

The first valentine:  Even though I've already included her in my year end post last year I still want to included  her still in this year's end post to the reason that she's the first person who gave me the reason to "celebrate" valentines day. She also become one of my inspirations this year specifically the first quarter of the year.

The gemstone: She's probably one of the people which contributed a lot this year. At first she was just a friend to me then for an unknown reason my perception of her changed. She became the main inspiration for this year. Even the one that prove I'm a bit coward when it comes to heart shit. The first that I have "efforted" a lot.

The Anti K-Pop guy/ Yoga Guy:  He made the greatest impact to me this year in terms of the whole male kingdom. This guy made me realize the limitations of my body through his experiences. Really hope that you really recover so that we can create the Anti K-pop group haha just kidding :) *bro fist*

The Violet annoying cartoon named chowder: She's a new found friend in 2011 , even became close friends. I probably liked her in the past :)

The adopted sister:  I included her here firstly because I thought she's the person who I promised to include my year end post but to my surprise I was wrong. Nevertheless, she's still worthy including in this post. She's one of the very close friends I've made this year. I've even treated her nearly as my elder sister. This year I've often stayed at their house because of overnights, her mother even calls me as their adopted child because of my habitual overnights at their house and even ends up going home last always. Before the year ended i had some "mistakes" to her. Just want to say sorry again for that. Anyway hope I'll get a lot of overnights at your house I'm really missing it >.<

and lastly....

The corporation co founded by me :   For almost 7 years this people made and still continuing making my life worth living . Nuff said :)


For the people who's names aren't here don't worry

YOU ALSO MADE SOME IMPACT TO MY LIFE THIS YEAR!

, it's just that i'm to lazy to right a lot here. Sorry!

PS: if you are paying attention to the dates you'll notice that there's an event which isn't in the right chronological order . It is because it was a mistake but it is so tedious to edit that so I just let it be there :)

-partial post... ? to be filled up after i confirmed the dates :)

Kiddie christmas

 At last a non serious post..


About a couple of hours ago I went with my friend to buy a gift for her "pamangkin". While looking for her gift, I just then realized Christmas really is for the kids. Why? 

• Come to think of it , they are the ones who really benefits this event especially through the gifts. 

• Speaking of gifts, they are the ones who gets the most..

                There was even one event that proves my hypothesis...

            In one Christmas party of  the workplace of my mother, Kuya Alvin, my mom's boss, asked my mom : "paki bilangi daw ang mga aki dgd", in English: please count the kids in here. The kids present there were 9 including me but Kuya Alvin said that I should be excluded because I'm already an adult.

 The reason of the count was because he will be giving cash to those kids. I thought I was excluded because I will be given a larger amount of money but this never happened. 

It is all because...

  Im already adult!

• And you'll also notice that one of the most congested part during the Christmas rush is the section for kids. SEE WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT?   I'm sounding an adult bitter to kids but this post really doesn't mean like that ow almost. 

• another thing is the kids only receive.. yeah some other kids also give gifts but in almost all of the time the money came from their parents or brothers which are adults.

 I KNOW THE CHRISTMAS ISN'T ABOUT THE GIFTS CRAP BUT BE HONEST TO YOUR SELF IT IS ABOUT THAT SOMETIMES. 

 I REALLY WANNA BE A KID AGAIN AND ENJOY CHRISTMAS LIKE A KID BEFORE.

-to be continued

Some things I missed..

As I woke up this day rain is pouring heavily outside, I felt that this day will not that be ok. I had an argument with my dad in the morning that caused for the bake mac I will be bringing to be hindered. 

In the afternoon another problem arose , the person which will be accompanying me in bringing the bake mac didn't show up and upon on our way to the party the bake mac I'm holding was dropped to the floor because of the sudden break of the jeepney driver.  This is really made me really think maybe this day really is not a good day for me.

But in the end the party turned out good. It was fun but honestly there's really something missing. While looking at the pictures a person there reacted about a picture and saying "sayang yaon ka kudta digdi ......" that point I already knew what was missing :  "the completeness of our group".

A phrase really made my ear tingle.. The phrase is something like this:

                 "sayang yaon ka pa kudta digdi.. kung dai mulang tig pili si..." 

                             "tig like niya... tapos tigunlike.."

I really don't see what's the big deal of liking and unliking something afterwards. The hell! You're all her friend so why can't you be just happy for her DAMN IT! I can't see whats wrong with her falling in love with that guy. Its not even her fault to fall in love with that guy. Don't me give that bullshit excuse : it's wrong because someone or to be specific a close friend likes him too.  I know that if your in her place too you'll be doing the same,. YOU'LL FIGHT FOR YOUR OWN HAPPINESS! Martyrdom ? sacrifice crap? I know you'll not do that.. SO PLEASE STOP BEING SELFISH BECAUSE OF SOME STUPID IMMATURITIES!  MOVE ON MAN!  YOU'LL TRADE YOUR FRIENDSHIP TO HER JUST BECAUSE OF THIS CRAP?

 It's really hard for me to see you guys treating them inconsiderately sometimes she even tries to reach you out but because of your boorish immaturity crap this effort is even turned into something not good. I'm not saying this because I liked her in the past but because i think what you are treating them now is inappropriate. I know I don't know the exact details but one thing I know, that they deserve better treatment..

After that another conflict in our circle of friends arose. This time this "war" is caused by some fucking misunderstanding, too much EGO and PRIDE and SELFISHNESS. Again I don't understand the full details of this "cold war" but the hell, is root of this really that great that this would even cost you two your friendship?.

I understand it's hard to eat someones pride but for I would choose whether my pride or a friendship that will be saved I'll choose the friendship. Saying sorry sometimes even you think that your the one who have done nothing wrong won't hurt a lot. 

I don't want to be tired of convincing you two to make up with each other but on your actions this past day i'm starting to get tired and just don't care. Another friend which is trying two convince this two is also already losing hope.

My main point is WHY CAN'T YOU TWO LOWER DOWN A LITTLE OF YOUR PRIDE OR EGO ENOUGH FOR YOU TO JUST TALK? DON'T ME GIVE THE CRAP THAT THIS IS NOT OUR BUSINESS... YOUR TWO AREN'T THE ONLY ONE AFFECTED HERE! THIS IS OUR GROUP SO EVERYBODY IN IT IS AFFECTED!

I really hope you two make up to each other...

I really missed the old times..

When we still jam without "awkwardness".

No cold wars..

No worries..

just fun..

The times when we are still complete and...

We're simply just friends!

Keep Right!

There's a saying that you should always keep right. Sometimes it's not the case. Like the incident that happened to me today because I walked right.

An embarrassing thing happened to me today because of my carelessness and stupidity.

The story goes like this:

It's 6pm and I'm going to hear mass in a chapel near our place. Since I'm again late so I rushed in going to the chapel. It's already a bit dark when I arrived near the chapel. When I'm about to enter the chapel I suddenly tripped myself from the puddle of water ,like the picture on the right. Luckily only few noticed my fall but the bad news is, I'm soaked with mud. I acted cool when I got up so that I will not attract further attention and hurriedly went away the scene and on the later went home to change clothes.

Why the hell is there no sign like the one above? >.< *para lang majustify my stupidity* :p

Anyway the result of my fall is a sprained right hand and a little back pain. We'll see tomorrow if there's more complications from my fall.

Anyway this post will end here because my mother and father is arguing again. Bka mapaginitan ako :D
