Google and Olympics

The 2012 Summer Olympics opening was a spectacular creation documenting (others say story telling) UK's transformations to a very progressive country that it is now. It also was a showcase of UK's famous citizens who has made great contributions in film - James Bond/Daniel Craig and Mr.Bean, to literature - lines from William Shakespeare's "The Tempest" were said, and to technology and health. The lighting of the Olympic Cauldron was simply breathtaking. Truly word class.

And Google, is also into the Olympic fever too. Their webpage features Olympic games, which I find cool and fancy. Just like this.

Nice, noh? Today, it's fencing that they are featuring.

This is It..

So I finally get to watch the much talked about MJ film. Was not planning to because I have been really busy the week that was, but after hearing almost all the people I know giving out rave reviews of the movie I got more curious..And my student, told me what the video was about, and she even copied the " Beat It" dance..lol! Then she told me-"you should watch it teacher"... That was when I knew I just had to watch it...Enjoyed it a lot and this last song made me cry..Apart from "Man in the Mirror" of course....

This is it, here I stand
I’m the light of the world, I feel grand
Got this love I can feel
And I know yes for sure it is real

And it feels as though I’ve seen your face a thousand times
And you said you really know me too yourself
And I know that you have got addicted with your eyes
But you say you gonna live it for yourself.

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn’t my plan
I never thught that I would be your lover
C’mon baby, just understand

This is it, I can say,
I’m the light of the world, run away
We can feel, this is real
Every time I’m in love that I feel

And I feel as though I’ve known you since 1,000 years
And you tell me that you’ve seen my face before.
And you said to me you don’t wnat me hanging round
Many times, wanna do it here before

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn’t my plan
I never thught that I would be your lover
C’mon baby, just understand

This is it, I can feel
I’m the light of the world, this is real
Feel my song, we can say

The Master Rapper Has Signed Off

The country's Master Rapper Francis Magalona succumbed to cancer today. A while ago in school, while there was a short gap during lecture, my classmate Chris, just blurted out - "Guys, patay na daw si Francis M..." {guys, francis m. is dead}... and the whole class' reaction was-Oh????All of us could not believe he is gone. Around August or September last year, he was diagnosed with leukemia and all through his ordeal, he has always projected a positive outlook about it. Never would one see him cry or question why it had to happen to him. He just had such a positive outlook about his illness, that he was too convinced that he was gonna get well soon...He even wrote about his daily grind in his blog Happy Battle. He was even able to record an album while he was on rest from chemo sessions...He did photography, performed on t.v. and was very positive about all the medications he had to take - blood stem cell transplant included. Indeed he has fought a great battle and his contributions in the music industry would always be remembered. Below is his phenomenal comeback to his home Eat Bulaga, the country's longest running noontime show where Francis M, is a host, but after he was diagnosed with cancer he had to take a leave. As soon as he was allowed to perform he came back October 2008 and performedjust for this time, the song he wrote with his bestfriend and Pupil vocalist Ely Buendia...
