"Will leave cyber world, but'll be back after at least 48 hours. (Who cares anyway? HAHAH) Hopefully will have an artwork by then. Hopefully."
And that was my tweet last Friday night. Unfortunately, until now I haven't had any artwork to show you. I don't know, perhaps 48 hours of cutting my connection in virtual world isn't enough to pull my emotions into the momentum of stroking brushes and smudging pastels or playing with charcoals. But luckily enough, I made it - I just kept my promise. A promise to myself; prohibiting my self to enter cyber world for at least 48 hours. Well actually, I know I can do it, because as I have said, I promised. And I believe, no, STRONGLY believe that promises aren't meant to be broken. NEVER. Lies do.
Wondering why I did that? I just realized that being in a cyber world devours most of my
So I made a decision to give myself an awarding break. That's it! It made a difference.
Saturday morning, I woke up 4:30AM (my normal body clock). Went out for a jog with my dad. Watched morning news after. Minutes passed then will boil some water in a kettle to make some coffee for me and my dad. Normal routine.
Then instead of going online, I read this book (at least printed in a paper, downloaded online days before), titled "The Fault In Our Stars" by John Green. Typical "teen" story. At least I thought it was. Good thing I printed out a copy of it. I wouldn't want to read it online, you know... I prohibited myself using things that will urge my eagerness to enter or even peek in cyberworld (esp. FB, twitter, Blogger, Gmail, Ymail); and that includes using laptop, tablet, desktop, or even my PSP. Dang! "Prevention is better than cure". ;)
And I will not going to make a review about it. One word: Awesome. More words: I can't get over with it just yet. I just finished it a while ago, reading the last chapter while hearing the sound of the boiling water near beside me, and I just love that. Classic type setting huh?
So while I was reading it, I have this dictionary beside me, literally. And, a literal dictionary, not those you'll find online. And it gives me quite nostalgia. Like way back elementary days or so? ;) Enriched vocabulary, yey!
Funny thing is, I also turned my phone in silent mode. (Woooh! At last I get to use "mode" not in high-schoolish way, the way others use it. Like kain mode/ texting mode/ tulog mode...duh! HAHAH!)
I texted my bestfriend what I was up to (about this 48hrs blah blah). *text *text *text until she mentioned: "Iba ka na, parang di na tayo close? :)". HAHAH! Which triggered me to ask her a coffee meet by that same night. Looks like we have lots of catching up to do. And there were actually! I also shared the success of the PBO of course, how was it like to be a blogger and meet nice friends, and convinced her to start blogging as well! :) It's nice to have seen a friend and chat with her in person, share each other's stories and the likes.
Being in 48 hours duration of not being a "cyber human" is like living in a
Another one, I finally got a new battery for my calculator, I can start my review as early as tomorrow. Not today, well, my turn to open the cyber door and see what has been happening in cyber world! Hi there! ;)
Kwentong Kuneho:
(I miss this one)
Nung nagcoffee kame ng bespren ko, may two roundtables na magkadikit, yung isa nakadikit sa glasswall, yung isa naman occupied by 3 girls. So nakishare kame, since isang table lang naman ginagamit nila.
Maya maya bigla silang nagsipag-ingles pag-upo namin! HAHAH! Ewan ko kung nagpapa-impress or what pero ganito sila mag usap:
G1: Im-hungry-already....I....wanted....to.....eat.....more....food....
G2: Yes-do-you-remember.....what-happened yesterday?...*name*....just....got.....her.....new....hair....cut....
G1: Im-hungry-already....I....wanted....to.....eat.....more....food....
G3: Blahh....blah....blah....blah...
Ganyan magsalita, mabilis sa mga unang phrases, tapos parang robot na kapag dadagdagan na yung first phrases HAHAH! Ewan ko, hindi naman ako magaling pero kung ganyan talaga sila mag usap, gano kaya nila katagal matapos ang isang topic nila? Hmmm.
Pao Kun's Thought101:
Hambabango lang ng mga babaeng nagjo-jogging. Pawisan pero mababango pa rin! ;)
tulo ang dugo ko sa tenga pao! hahaha umeenglish na talaga ha!! thinking of change in 48 hours? u cant resist what u love yan lang masabi ko! hahaha minsan kailangan nga natin yang break na break, yong normal pa lahat i mean, wala pang internet sa mundo, ang tradisyon ng ating buhay, kaya pa kaya yan ngayon? eeehhh?? para kasing lahat na ng transaction o usapan nasa online na pero whatever u do, goodluck at sana maging masaya ka dyan for the meantime (may poot! hahaha jowk!)
ReplyDeletebumalik kana kagad, mamimiss ka ng lahat, at nakikitrend ka kay archie ha tahimik mode din yon pati si jon, kahit si rix, si arline lang nakikita ko sa twitter dumaldal lol
haha naman! juskow parekoy, kung maka english ka naman dito parang tumatanggap lang ng outbound calls sa isang call center company lols.
Deleteah kaya pala mejo on hiatus mode, you're doing a review then eh? goodluck!
Isipin nyo nalang kung tagalog ang entry na ito, nakakaantok. pagbabalik tanaw. HAHAH! parang history lang! :D
DeleteMagrereview din ako fiel! :D
Lala, tapos na. HAHAH! At mukang may poot nga ang pagkakasabi mo. HAHAHA!
Love to hear that you made it possible, 48 hours away from the cyberworld! And that was even more productive, read a book, bonding with your family and then catching up with your bestfriend? Hola! Keep this up Pao, I admire you. By the way, I love reading your posts..
ReplyDeleteYes po ate Gracie:) Tiniis kong walang cyber life! HAHAH!
DeleteAhhh yes po, i missed reading books nga po, at ngayon parang gusto ko na po ulit mag basa. HAHAH!
Wow, thank you po! Sana hindi po kayo mag sawa. :)) And yung flowers, wait nyo lang po jan, hindi ko po kayo bibiguin! :)
I totally understand you that is why I don’t have laptop for now in my little room incubator all I have is my BB with me. These give me the feeling to be a normal human person. In the morning I can still have tea, walk my dog and do some errands. I sched my blog posting and blog hopping. I guess we really need to manage our time Stress is bad
ReplyDeleteStress is bad. Sobra!
DeleteHanga ako sa time management skills mo! :)
Okay talaga mag abstain sa cyberworld. Ako nagdeactivate ng FB for 5months. At nanejoy ko siya ng husto :)
ReplyDeleteThere is more to life than cyberworld! :) Masaya ako sa maganda mong karanasan :)))
5 months? NO! Grabe. HAHAH! Hmmm, thinking, lie-low siguro pwede, but... hmmm. Might try it as well sometime. HAHAHAH!
DeletePero opo, ang gaan ng buhay pag walang cyberworld. :D Parang minus deadlines and hectic schedules, ganyan. :)
caps lock talaga ang NO!
DeleteSIGE NA NGA, MAG ALL CAPS NA DIN AKO PARA INTENSE ANG PAGSASALITA. :p
HAHAH! Nagulat lang ako. 5 months. :)) Any ways sabi nyo nga po, there's more to it! :)
Deletethere are times talaga na dapat na mag offline...kasi we need to make sure the people around our offline world gets our attention too...:) Good thing din na mag rest paminsan minsan...way to go on your review...:)
ReplyDeletexx!
At yun nga po ang nangyare... mas napagtuunan ko po ng pansin ang mga nakapaligid saking mga tao:)
DeleteThanks po!
Wow Pao kun. Hanga ako sa yo. Even grandma( me) ay mahirapan i cut ang cyber world for 48 hours, but you made a point and gives me an idea. I admire you:)
ReplyDeleteThanks po! :)) Try nyo po minsan, chilling lang. :)
Deletecyberworld can make or break you, just do what makes you happy.
ReplyDeleteBy then, it broke me. that's why I came out of this (I thought stupid) brilliant idea! :P
Deleteser olivr, siyang tunay ang sinabi mo :)
DeleteI have a feeling...that...you...go...jogging...so...you...can...run...after...girls....no? haha ayan ginaya ko tuloy sila magsalita :)
ReplyDeleteBilib naman ako sa nagawa mo! ang hirap nyan lalo na at naging dependent tyo at nasanay na lagi mag share, like o comment. ma try nga yan minsan, 48 din, 48 minutes :)
HAHAH! hindi naman, pero minsan, hinahyaan ko talaga silang lumampas sakin, tapos... ayun! Swoooshh! Ambangooooo! HAHAHAHAH!
DeleteOo nga kuya Zai, kating kati ang kamay at mata ko sa pagsilip sa mga notifications o mga kaganapan sa internet! AHAHAH! 48, akala ko 48days! HAHAH!
pinaka matagal akong na cut off sa cyberworld nung binaha kami dito sa San Mateo due to typhoon Ondoy way back in 2009. Siguro mahigit 2 or 3 days din akong walang internet connection nun. ang hirap lalo na pagnakasanayan mo na lols.
ReplyDeletegoodluck sa review mo!
Thank you Fiel! Kaya ko to! :) Pray for me.
DeleteOo, ang hirap pag walang netcon noh?
Wow dapat kinausap mo yung bespren mo sinabi mo na dont english me, im panic nyahahaha.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAAH! tagalog ako in public! HAHAHAH! Dito lang ingles inglesan! lol
DeleteSince we miss you.... literally... I have a lot of things to say. We're now friends (assuming) so I will be brutally honest.
ReplyDeleteLet me share my two cents worth on this post...
There's no sense of being away from the cyber world for 48 hours if you'll document what you have done the next day. Where? Here. Through your blog. Admit it... We're hooked to this and we can't do anything about it. There's nothing wrong staying online too long since we are not violating any law especially on intellectual property right. One of it is printing a book which was illegally downloaded online. Bwahahahaha.... Peace! J/K
Na-miss namin ang ingay mo... Mabuti naman at panandalian lang ang iyong hiatus... Ang takot ko sa mga katulad
mong namamahinga, prone ka sa skip reading dahil marami for sure ang nakapilang posts from the blogs you follow. Bad 'yun... hehehe...
Pasalamat talaga ang mga babaeng nakatabi mo at wala ako doon...Kung nagkataon...alam na...
Huy, nawiwili ka na sa English ha... May gustong patunayan? lol
I missed you all too, literally din! :)
DeleteOn your first cent, actually, I didn't cut my connections in cyberworld in purpose of documenting it, really. I just still hadn't got an artwork to post so I decided to blog what happened in my life within that 48-hour duration. :)
HAHAHAH! Oyy hindi ako nagsskip read (labas sa ilong), or kapag may hindi naman ako binasa, hindi ako nag cocomment! HAHHAHAH!
and, wala akong gustong patunayan! Muka kasing bagay ang ingles sa background ko ohhh.. diba diba :))
Salamat sa iyong matapat na komento Ziyer Ezkwatur! :))
congrats you made it! baka nagpapa-impress sa inyo ni bestfriend yung mga girls kasi englishero ka daw like...here...in...your....blog? :P
ReplyDeletebakit may pakiramdam ako na ginagawa mong motivation yung mga amoy ng girls para mag-jog? hahaha!
fetish ni pareng pao yung pawis ng mga girls? hahaha...;))
DeleteAyy, hindi, tagalog nga salita ko dun! HAHAH! English lang ng konti, konti lang. Like: "you know?" ganyan. HAHAH!
DeleteHAHAH hindi naman noh... basta nakakatuwa lang sila.
Cyron: fetish ko ay ang smile nilang nakakatunaw! :D HAHAHAH!
ganda ng the fault noh? naiyak ako diyan eh
ReplyDeleteoo, grabe, ambigat sa puso nung chapter 21!
Deleteyun ba yung eulogy?
Deleteminsan ang social networking sites, may mga negative effects talaga. kaya tama lang naman ung ginawa mo
ReplyDeleteThanks kuya Bino! But I am now here again at maingay! HAHAH!
Deletebaka naman kasi robot yung ka-table nyo?
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAH! baka nga! Mapagpanggap! ;)
DeleteA Time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens... (Ecc 3:1)
ReplyDeleteHaving that 48 hour break is a realization that life is not only centered in one person, activity or events. Balanse lang dapat at magbigay ng oras sa bawat taong nakapaligid sayo. A time ofr everything...
Kaya bigyan mo ng time si D. Dance hahaha Seryoso na comment ko eh.
Wow, gusto ko yung bible verse.
DeleteYes kuya Mar, nag out of balance lang ako lately. :D
HAHAHAHAH!!! Alam mo ang sagot ko jan kuya Mar! :))
Di ko alam! Ano bang sagot mo? HAHAHAH! Paki explain HAHA
DeletePinilit kong magpakabait. At ipagpapatuloy ko ito. :) Wala akong isasagot. HAHAHAH!
Deletehaha well nakaya ko din nmn malayo sa cyber world ng halos sang lingo hahaha
ReplyDeleteun ee nung nasira ung pc ko hahaha

HAHAHAH! kaya naman pala. Pero iba kapag anajan yung mga temptations pero pipilitin mo talaga pigilan yung eagerness mong gamitin yon :)
DeleteAnong book?
Congrats bro! Next time make it longer. A week perhaps? Dare, ano? haha.
ReplyDeleteWe really need this sometimes. The cyber world tends to cut us from the real things that... are... way... more... fulfilling. [Pasensya naubusan haha]
Mukang maganda yung book, masearch na rin!
So parang gusto mo talaga akong mawala ano kuya Gointot! HAHAHAHAH! Grabe ka lungs!
DeleteHAHAHAH! yesss.... you....are....right.... HAHAH!
Yes, habang binabasa ko yan, wala akong idea sa mga mangyayari! Which is exciting!

ReplyDeleteHAHAHAH! Natawa lang ako dun sa kwentong kuneho, kasi grabe talaga sila, parang nilalakas talaga nila yung boses nila. :))
Delete72 hrs? Antagal. HAHAHAH! some other time! :))

DeleteKaya pala laging busog ang soul ko?lol
Gutom pala. HAHAH!
Hahahaha! doon ako natawa sa last part. Tungkol sa good smell na napuna mo sa mga babaeng nagja jogging...hehehe!
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAH! e kasi pag nalampas sila sakin (on purpose talagang nagpapalampas ako sakanila) e naaamoy ko sila! hambango lungs daddy jay! HAHAAHAH! Diba diba?! :D
DeleteKailangan ko na din nitong 48-hour-something na ito. Lalo ngayon, balak ko ngang i-delete na lahat ang mga may kinalaman sa internet. Lol. Anong pakiramdam after ng 48 hours? Nakakapagod ba? Nakakangalay sa kamay? Hehe.
ReplyDeleteAng tanong kakayanin ko ba ang 48-hour? Challenge accepted.
Oyy wag naman idelete! HAHAH!
DeleteMahirap. Sa totoo lang. Lalo na at anjan lang sa tabi tabi mo ang mga temptations. Lahat ng dahilan para mag online ka. Ganyan.
Hindi nangalay ang kamay ko. Sanay pala? lol
Kaya mo yaaaan! :D
hmmm, napaisip naman ako, kaya ko kaya ang 48 hours without checking what's happening in the cyberworld? Parang hindi...hehe pero sa province siguro pwede pa, dito sa Manila? ewan... ;)
ReplyDeleteBilib ako sa disiplina mo Pao, congrats! :)
Yun din po ang nasa isip ko nung una e. Pero nakaya ko, mahirap po nung una. HAHAH!
DeleteThanks po Talinggaw! ;)
My daughter met the author and his brother Hank last year. She got 2 signed copies of the book.
ReplyDeleteI saw the photo of this post at Zai's side bar, under his blog list. I had to click it. :)
Wow! Wow ulit! Seriously? John Green! Galing naman!
DeleteThanks for visiting po LiLi! :))
It would be difficult for me ~ 2 days without the internet. Of course I can do that. Magfocus lang ako sa mga household chores o ibang gawain, magagawa ko yan. Pero at this time, naging vital part na sa akin ang cyberworld.
ReplyDeleteOo nga po. Mahirap. Lalo nat anjan lang sa tabi at kitang kitanatin yung temptations na makakapaglink satin to cyber world! :))
DeleteKiya ko kahit more than 48 hrs pa. haha. Dami mo palang nagawa. Thumbs up sayo Pao. Good luck sa review mo ah Turuan kitang techniques sa board. lol. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yey!!! Lahat ng techniques turo mo sakin!
DeleteI just realized na hindi pa pala ako adik sa internet.. mukhang nahirapan ka sa 48hrs na yun ah, saken dedma lang yun.. paminsan kasi e nauubos load ng net ko, at hindi naman ako naatat magpaload ulet agad.. kasi naman pag walang net, kumpleto tulog ko, hahaha.. Kakatawa yung mga ingleserang freak.. ewan ba kung bakit andameng ganyan ngayon..
ReplyDeleteOo nahirapan talaga ako ate Joanne. Pero ngayon parang natatawa ako sa pinaggagagawa ko, pero nag enjoy ako ng walang net.
DeleteEwan ko ba sakanila. Bahala sila. :)
