I have seen, I have been to places far and deep in my mind only to find COMFORT IN YOUR STRANGENESS.
Ang Bandistang Guro
..:My Personal Background:..
Twenty two years ago, on that fateful day of January the 20th, a rockin' baby girl named DIANE (that's me!) was born to Nestor and Arcelita, the second in the brood of five.
I grew up in San Juan, my original hometown where I took my early forms of education specifically at Alvir Pre-School (Where I graduated with honors!) Then I spent my elementary years at Holy Child Parochial School (Where my future boyfriend was also studying.) and then after we transferred our residence, I took my secondary education at National College of Business and Arts in Fairview (Where I established myself as a leader and topnotcher!) but then faith had led me to meet people of whom I would share the rest of my high school years at Lagro High School Fairview Annex but now known as North Fairview High School (In this school, I found out the reality that's been going on with our society specially when it comes to facilities and education, but still I excelled, specially in my favorite subject English, I was vice president of the class, president of different organzations and made my way to the top of the class, where they look at me as one of the best). Now, I am a graduate of Polytechnic University of the Philippines in Sta. Mesa Manila I took up a Bachelors degree in Business Teacher Education. actually my passing in this school brought me up to realize things, it lead me to think about the future, I am very thankful to my alma matter cause eventhough I did not graduate with honors this institution created me, and molded me to be the best and wisest person that I can be. This institution PUP Sta. Mesa pave the way for me to understand the reality of life and the society, it really contributed a lot to my independent and democratic thinking! (astig! \m/)
\m/ Musical Influences \m/
I look up to Tori Amos, Sarah Mclachlan, Cynthia Alexander, Alanis Morissette Aya de leon, and Sinead O 'Connor as few of my ideal female musical influences back-uped
by great musical geniuses like Metallica, Silverchair, Korn, Slipknot, Staind, Our Lady Peace, Mars Volta, Dicta Licencse, Disturbed, Creed, Dishwalla, No Doubt, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Incubus, Bob Marley, Taking Back Sunday, Dashboard Confessionals, Keane, The Jets, The Killers, Save Ferris, The Sundays, The Used, Blink 182, Yellow Card, Smashing Pumpkins, Dashboard Confessionals, Korn, Rage Against the Machine, Moonpools and Catterpillars, Portishead, Massive Attack, Cranberries and with local bands like Wolfgang, Slapshock, Greyhoundz, Cheese, Kamikazee, Chico Science, Urban dub, Eraserheads, Sugarfree, Spongecola, Saydie, Sandwich, Rivermaya, Bamboo, Typecast, Brownbeat All Star, Put3ska, The Late Isabel, Kapatid, Agaw Agimat and Hungry Young Poets, Imago, Mojofly,Valley of Chrome, Tropical Depression, Whorelock, P.O.T, Rizal Underground, Alamid, Pan, Sandwich, etc. These very influential bands really made a very remarkable impact in my musical background specially in making music for my band "In My Own sense"
>m< My Band >m<
Band name:
Members: 5
Genre: Halo-halo (but, we would like to focus on ????? everything!!! wahahaha!
*The band was given birth Sophomore Years in College, actually Me, Vice, Tadz and anonymous were classmates and Menan is my boyfriend. We are all taking Education courses (like the members of Datu's Tribe) except Menan because he was a former engineering student and then shifted to ComSci. The thought of putting up a band was actually the influence of my elder brother (actually, he also has his own band which actually led me to believe that I also have this potential to establish my own band.)
*We also took time to watch other bands, go to gigs/concerts/album launch. Us having different backgounds made our band have a variety of influences and it is also fortunate of us because our minds intersect on the same ideas.
*I write songs... hopefully we can acquire our target money to finance the album/project. I am inspired to write songs specially when I am angry or sad (nagpapaka-emo!!!) The topics that I would like to write are those of fathers of whom their daughters/son are angry with, sometimes when I just ask a topic, I write what I know about the topic etc but I'm not alone in this thing Salvador "Jam' Gumera is our arranger, he also gives comments on how can i further improve my music/lyrics.
*This year 2005, will be our last year together as classmates, cause we are now graduates...(naks!) but even though we will part ways as classmates, the friendship will never end,,, keep in touch and live the band!
*Sigh, now that we are graduates, our time will be more devoted to our chosen field,,, hope that the jamming sessions would still be alive.

Sa buhay empleyado merong dalawang pagpipilian kung tinatamad kang magtrabaho.
A. Una ay umabsent. 1. Kapag umiikot na kaagad sa katawan mo ang katamaran pagkagising pa lang ay mag-isip ka na kaagad ng palusot kung bakit ka aabsent. Paalala: dapat ay memoryado mo ang mga dahilang nagamit mo na dati (tip: gumawa ng isang logbook) ng sa gayon ay hindi ka parang sirang plakang nag-uulit lang lagi ng rason ng di pagpasok. Alalahanin na tuso din ang mga bossing. 2. Kapag nakaisip ka na ng magandang dahilan ay agad mag-text o tumawag sa bossing mo, the earlier the better. Kung ayaw mo ng madaming tanong e mag-text ka at kung nais mo namang tumawag ay siguraduhin mong magaling kang umarte kagaya ng kung ikaw ay kunwaring me sakit ay umubo ka ng paunti-unti habang kinakausap ang bossing mo. 3. Matapos mag-text/tumawag ay bumalik sa higaan at magplano ka na ng gusto mong gawin sa buong araw. Malaking posibilidad na magtutulog ka lang buong araw. Sya nga pala, kapag tumawag ang opisina, laging tandaan ang rasong ginamit (consistent ka dapat), maaari namang i-off mo na lang ang phone mo para hindi ka maistorbo buong araw. BABALA: Siguraduhing regular ka na sa kumpanyang pinagtratrabahuhan kung ikaw ay mag-aabsent.
B. Pangalawa ay pumasok Eto ang dapat gawin ng mga empleyado kapag tinatamad magtrabaho pero ayaw umabsent. Ang mga taong ito ay nuknukan ng kapal ng mukha. Ang mga sumusunod na instructions ay napakasimple pero effective. Meron ding oras na nakatakda, magsisismula ng alas ocho at magtatapos ng alas singko ng hapon. 1. Pumasok ng sakto sa oras. Huwag kang male-late at huwag ka din namang excited masyado. 8:00 2. Pagdating mo sa opisina ay ilapag mo lang kaagad ang gamit mo sa lamesa at magtungo kaagad sa pantry. Magtimpla ng kape o kung anuman ang iniinom mo. Habang nasa loob ay makipag-usap sa mga tao doon, patagalin mo ang usapan (tip: pag-usapan ang mga headline ngayong araw o mga nangyari kahapon sa loob ng opisina). Kung walang tao sa pantry ay mag-yaya ka ng kasama bago pa man pumasok doon. 8:00-8:30 3. Matapos sa pantry ay magtungo na sa lamesa mo dala-dala pa din ang kape, ito ay para hindi ka antukin buong araw. Buksan ang computer. Matapos nito ay buksan ang mailbox mo. Basahin ang mga email…mapabago man o luma. Buksan lahat ng pedeng buksang attachments, makakabuti ito sa pagpapatagal ng oras. O kaya naman ay mag-email ka sa mga kakilala mong matagal mo ng di nakakamusta. Kapag di ka pa nakuntento ay gawing chat ang email (ito ay sa kadahilanang banned na ang halos lahat ng messengers sa mga kompanya… pati google talk di pinalagpas, mga walanghiyang IT yan). Pano? Mag- email ka sa kakilala mong alam mong merong access sa internet sa mga oras na yon tapos antayin ang reply…voila! Instant chat session. Sya nga pala, habang ginagawa ang mga nasa taas ay huwag makakalimot inumin ang kape..lalamig ito. 8:30-9:30 3. Matapos ang makabuluhag paggamit ng computer ay magdala ng mga papel-papel at magtungo sa kung saan mo man nais. Mas maganda kung mukha kang aborido hawak ang mga props mo habang papaalis ng lamesa, ito ay para sabihin ng bossing mo sampu ng kasamahan mo sa trabaho na busy ka lagi. Magtungo sa ibang department na me kakilala at makipag-usap ng kung anu-ano. 9:30-10:00 4. Tignan mo nga naman. Alas dies na! Break time na ulit! Pagkatapos mag-lamyerda sa ibang department ay magtungo ulit sa puwesto at ibaba ang mga scratch paper na props. Dalhin ang tasa sa pantry at magtimpla ulit ng panibagong kape, libre ang kape kaya magtimpla ka lang ng magtimpla. Magtungo sa labas kung ikaw ay nag-yoyosi kung di naman ay manatili sa pantry at makipag-usap ka na lang sa mga tao doon. 10:00-10:15 5. Pagkatapos ng break ay bumalik sa lamesa at humarap sa computer (huwag ng magdala ng kape sa lamesa…tama na ang nainom mo, sisikmurain ka na sa sobrang gahaman). Tapos ka na sa mga emails mo, ngayon naman ay mag-internet ka na lang ng kung anik-anik. Pero bago mag-internet ay magbukas ka muna ng office document kahit wala kang balak gawin ang mga ito, makakatulong ang documentong ito mamya. Tapos ay mag-internet ka na. Paalala: dapat ay alerto ka sa mga tao sa paligid mo, kapag alam mong me padating pindutin ang ALT at TAB ng sabay. Ito ay para makapunta sa office document na binuksan mo kanina. Kung mabagal ang iyong reflexes ay dapat mabilis ka sa paggamit ng mouse para ma-click mo agad sa taskbar ung documentong nasabi. Kapag na-master mo na ang technique na ito ay di na mapapansin ng bossing mo na nag-iinternet ka lang sa mga oras na ito. 10:15-12:00 6. Tama na muna ang computer. Lunch break na! Alam mo na ang dapat gawin. 12:00-1:00 7. Pagkatapos kumain ay gawin ulit ang #5. Habang gingawa ito ay maglabas ulit ng mga scratch papers na para bang me hinahanap. Tandaan na dapat seryoso ang mukha mo habang gingawa ang mga ito (tip: ikunot ang noo para makakuha ng mukhang seryoso). 1:00-3:00 8. Break time na ulit. Ang bilis nga naman ng oras. Hala..punta na ulit sa pantry. Maaari ka na ulit mag-kape at makipag-chikahan. 3:00- 3:15 9. Bumalik sa lamesa at guluhin ito sa pamamagitan ng paglabas ng sandamakmak na mga papel. Tapos ay gawin ulit and #5. Tignan ang oras sa computer mo. Kung 4:30 na ay simulan mo ng ayusin ang ginulong lamesa. Mag-ayos ayos ka na din ng sarili. Kung kasing kapal ng adobe ang mukha mo ay magtungo ka ulit sa pantry para mag- kape (tandaan na dapat me kasama sa pantry) o kaya naman ay gawin ang #3. Matapos ang lahat ng ito ay umuwi ka na, para mo ng awa…wala ka na ngang silbi ay nangdadamay ka pa ng iba sa katamaran mo. 3:15- 5:00
BABALA: Wag mong ipapabasa ito sa bossing mo kung ayaw mong mawalan ka ng trabaho.

Swimming with the Family @ Medz Resort in Dasma,Cavite. Was whole lot of fun. The pool was nice—not that much crowded because we got in early. My daughter was so excited to see the pools but was afraid at first when I dipped her in the water. but eventually liked it so much that she had sun burns too like her mom. Pictures –sliding—walking—swimming—eating--..
