UTENSIL/TOOL

It's too important not to have.  But when it comes to how the word utensil is commonly used, is just a little too exclusive.  Well there you go in the kitchen.  The kitchen needs to have utensils which I somehow perceive as a tool.  Whichever, whatever, wherever right?  As long as it serves it's purpose for our everyday lives.  Exactly.

GLOBAL WARNING TO MIGHT AND POWER INTERRUPTION CANDLES

Been staying or spending more time indoors these days.  Well that is how I am really.  I'd rather much prefer to stay indoors a lot.  Unless there'll be more reason to go out to work somewhere.  More ladies & gentlemen would want to do so as well.  The sun I suppose might burn their skins.  It is both funny and sad but that is how it is.  Dark light, darker, lighter.  I have heard and learned about this thing ladies take to stay or go white. And there are those who want to burn their skins. And it's a little frightening and funny at the same time.  I find it unnecessary. Well that's only my opinion.  

Now there is this trend that kept bugging me.  The technologically challenged, the anti-computer, the anti-science, the techno-paranoids, the hacker concept.  This is how it is these days.  If that is how it takes for this place to somehow move on, progress, function at least to make homes more livable, why not?

But is there a reason to worry about energy? I guess there is.  Maintenance, shut down, power distribution hmmm rearrangement?  I'm not sure.  But there must be a valid reason why.  And somehow it is more fun without that thing we call Power.  Power Power Power.  Okay electric.  The electric election season.

TRAVELLING ITINERARIES & UNPLANNED MISDIRECTIONS

I should have written all about this a month ago because it had to be written at some point by me anyway so I won't have to forget such rare events.  Well one of my maternal cousin had to visit the country.  And somehow whenever he visits, I get to be more busy than the usual days I have here.  He is half Filipino, half-German, so it comes to no surprise that he'd get more attention from my aunts, cousins & even neighbors especially when it comes to producing some kind of "pahalipay" as we call it here... some goodies he brought with him like candies, chocolates and other unusual stuff.  He decided to spend his birthday with us.  I heard that his father, back out in Moosburg, will be having a back operation for which he'd be back by then for him to look after.  His mother, my aunt, must have decided I think that it would save her the trouble of having to tend to her husband and his son at the same time in such awful circumstances.  I am not even sure why anyway.  

But then it is all decided that he'd be around for a while though it's nothing new anyway since he has been visiting the Philippines for several times. Since he was a child up until now, he says it's his eight time to visit the city.  And so whenever he visits, it does feel as though am having my own vacation as well.  Well, it is summertime anyway right?  Oh am not even sure anymore.  Well as I can recall from his past visits, whenever he is around we'd spend more time at the beach, have a nice family reunion.  It is not a secret that he's a hard drinker.  It was some sort of like or kinda like their usual drink back in Germany.  Drinking beers or any alcoholic drink he says almost comes naturally on every meal, and even before, after and in betweens.  

I won't have to write the details but I have to say it was tiresome and wonderful at the same time.  Considering this season where people from here are starting to gear up for another election season.  I'd also got to go along and visit the white sand beaches, the waterfalls, & the enchanted river of Surigao del Sur.  The only thing that kept me a little bored & disappointed was the thought that the trip would have been more comforting and relaxing if the travel itinerary was well planned at least, including the transportation.  But hell yeah, hey it was fun!

COCKS, COCKERS, & COCKSUCKERS

I have always been a little fascinated with chickens.  From way back as I can remember, there were always chickens everywhere.  I don't really seem to care.  They are just there. Rooster, I think that's what they call the male chicken and the female chicken they call, Hen.  Eggs are usually laid by the hen through the rooster. And we get to feed them when we get together, and of course make them kill each other like they were idiots.

I know people, closer than you think, who know a whole lot about raising fowls.  Some were too obsessed to mention about, and others were just a little too interested.  When you come to think of it, election season is a lot like making roosters, chickens fight each other.  They usually just call it "cockfighting".  It really is kinda fun to watch, not mentioning the camaraderie amongst aficionados and enthusiasts alike.  Well, there are other things we need to show. And the arena, the cockpit, or wherever, whatever what you want to call it, yards out just the same.
