TARA SANTELICES

Gene, here's me spreading the word..




THERE IS SOMETHING WE CAN DO FOR TARA SANTELICES. PLEASE FORWARD TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW.

Word spreads around fast and almost everyone has already heard about what happened to our dear friend, Tara Santelices (Assumption Antipolo’s Batch 2003 and Ateneo de Manila University’s Class of 2007, AB Political Science).

On the eve of her 23rd birthday, Tara was shot in the head during a hold-up while riding a jeepney along Imelda Avenue, Cainta, Rizal. Joee Mejias, who was with her at that time, rushed her to Amang Rodriguez Memorial Hospital in Marikina City. The parents of Tara and Joee arrived at the hospital shortly thereafter. When morning came, Tara’s parents finally decided to transfer her to the Medical City, Ortigas Avenue, Pasig City. Since 8:00am of August 6, Tara has been in the ICU fighting for her dear life. Her parents have decided not to push through with the operation.

Although it might seem that there is nothing else that we can do but wait for Tara to wake up from this horrific nightmare, we, the friends of Tara, have decided to raise funds for Tara’s hospital bills. This is the least we can do to ease the unbearable pain her family is going through. We have been given the go-signal from Tara’s dad, Tito Larry, and here are the details:

The temporary bank account is under Anne Marie F. Santelices, Banco de Oro, SA 2140-062201. For direct cash donations, please proceed to the ICU Waiting Room of the Medical City (Ortigas Avenue, Pasig City). Please look for Joee Mejias or Lila Santelices.

Any amount will be gratefully accepted. Anonymous donations are also welcome. Please spread the word. Forward this to your family, friends and even to everyone else you know. Please post this on Friendster, Multiply, Facebook and wherever else you can think of. Please send group messages on Yahoo Messenger. This will mean so much to us, her friends.

Please continue praying for Tara, for Joee and for both of their families. If you want to come see Tara, visiting hours at the ICU are at 9:00 am to 11:00 am and 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm.


Thank you so much for your time and kind consideration.

For inquiries, please contact Joee Mejias (09228154987) for calls and Jac Ledonio (09167243071) or Myka Francisco (09163695148) for text messages.

metamorphosis

"The mask of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the caterpillar call the end-of-the-world, the master calls a butterfly."

Another week ahead

Monday again and I feel the weekend just passed me by.. I was anot able to all the things that I needed to do such as:

1. wash my rubber shoes (3 pairs of them)
2. give the dogs a bath (all 5 of them)
3. pay my bills (the internet bill is overdue and I am very afraid they
might cut it because of my delinquency)
4. review lessons from the last week

Anyways, I'll be going to the office around 9pm and sleep there until my shift (1am). I already asked Behng to bring the blanket so we can sleep in the quarters later on. Tomorrow we are going to Metrowalk to buy dvds.. Wency has been texting and might think I'm already dead or something so I'll surprise her tomorrow. .

Like the new lay-out? It took a while to get it done but I thought of simplifying the whole look because I've grown tired of the blue elephant. I think this one will work just fine.

Onto bed now my friends. I'll nap until 6pm to feel re-energized before I go off to work. I'm not feeling too well..

kentucky fried cruelty


Watch more videos at KentuckyFriedCruelty.com.


.. I'm not sure if the same practice is done here in the philippines, but if so, we all better think twice.

86%

I finished my final exam a while ago (1:30am-3:30am-EST) and got an 86%!!!

I can now take a little breather from all the studying and the worrying that I won't pass because I just did! hehe.. Actually, the licensed group got the highest scores but that was to be expected anyways. I'm just glad I passed and can now move on with my life.. oops there's still one more challenge I have to go through tonight -mock calls with Rai! uh-oh..

Anyways, I did something stupid yesterday and erased my multiply account, meaning all the pics I uploaded were all gone. I was trying to delete the 'kyelaa' account but ended up deleting the one I'm actually using. See, I'm not such a savant after all. So yesterday, in between peeks into the e*trade site, my gigantic binder and notebooks, I began to rebuild my multiply site again. I figured, Inna would wonder what happened to me since it was our only means of semi-regular communication through site comments. haha.. It's up again but I don't think I'll be able to finish all the picture captions since I'm feeling a bit groggy fom lack of sleep the entire week and would have to hit the sack before the noon sun entirely deprives me of slumber.

So there you go. Just wanted to drop by and give a heads up.

Oh yeah, Biggx texted me yesterday asking when I'll be home so she an drop off the invite to her wedding but I never got a reply.

CONGRATULATIONS BIGGX AND MARK!!!Ü I wish you guys luck and a happy life together.
