A Hero Knows to Drive His Time

My watch, my confidant
I have a peculiar ability that I can sleep anywhere. Whenever and wherever I sleep, most of the time, I dream. May be I was born to be a dreamer, a visionary. This could be the reason that until now I don't stop to try new things as I build my career. One of the major constraints for me in realizing all my goals is time. 


The watch at the left has been my companion since college. Since my mother bought and as I wear it everyday, that TIMEX watch never fails to remind me to utilize time effectively and efficiently as I propel myself to greater heights of my goals in life. Indeed, I graduated on time, earned the corresponding professional title for my course and making a career.

That watch on my wrist may have lost its newness but it still serves its purpose and remains very classy. Every tick alerts me still. Every change of date notifies me still. Most especially,  it helps me to be driven to make use of my time at its best.

When I know I am utilizing effectively and efficiently my time, I feel like a hero. I may have not died for others but knowing that I am using my time wisely in order I can have allot time for myself and for the people I love is something I am very proud. A second that is lost is a time will never be repeated. And to spend time with other people is one most precious gift I can offer. I give something of myself. That's why I feel I am a hero.

It was a music to my year when I came to know the latest TIMEX HERO STORY COLLECTION. Each masterpiece is a work of great minds and industrious hands. Each has its own inspiration of creativity. This collection is where style and technology perfectly meet. Below are the four out of the five watches from the collection.


However, the one that captured my attention and I can really relate myself to is the Timex® Adventure Series™ Linear Indicator Chronograph with Intelligent Quartz™ Technology. Its Linear Indication Chronograph feature  can help me to record the time of a happening of my life with just a push of the button. This feature is important to me because as a dreamer, visionary who wants to accomplish many things in life I must be very time conscious. If I will enjoy the convenience of this feature I can measure productivity. Aside from that, I can wear it on any occasion from the most formal to the most adventurous getaways. I will not be worried if it gets wet because it is water resistant up to 100m.

 

Timex Adventure Series will keep me time-bounded and allow me to have time for everything. To give time for my dreams, ambitions, self and the people I hold dear to my heart makes me feel fulfilled and powerful. With these, I am a hero because I know how to navigate my time.

Today's Music: Love Song for No One by John Mayer

Yes, I am single and hopefully, I won't be anymore.


Staying home alone on a Friday 
Flat on the floor looking back 
On old love 
Or lack thereof 

After all the crushes have faded 
And all my wishful thinking was wrong 
I'm jaded 
I hate it 

I'm tired of being alone 
So hurry up and get here 
So tired of being alone 
So hurry up and get here 

Searching all my days to find you 
Not sure what I'm looking for 
I'll know where 
When I see you 

Until then I'll hide in my bedroom 
Just staying up all night just to write 
A love song 
For no one 

I'm tired of being alone 
So hurry up and get here 
So tired of being alone 
So hurry up and get here 

I could have met you in a sandbox 
I could have passed you on the sidewalk 
Could I have missed my chance and watched you walk away 

I could have met you in a sandbox 
I could have passed you on the sidewalk 
Could I have missed my chance and watched you walk away 

I'm tired of being alone 
So hurry up and get here 
So tired of being alone 
So hurry up and get here 

You'll be so good 
You'll be so good for me 
I know you'll be so good 
For me 
For me

Today's Video: TRIP NI BAI: CARTE BLANCHE 2013

Still having a carte-blanche-hangover. And Yes! The camera caught a glimpse of me. However, Jelly and Mia were the most notable people on this feature for me. Of course, they are my friends.
Thanks to Helen! Without her, we won't be able to have this exposure. This is what you call "CONNECTION".

Carte Blanche 2013: Complete Discretion to Party with a Cause

It was colorful. It was festive. It was carnival.



That was how I was welcomed when I and my friends set foot on the Crocodile Park Grounds last November 16, 2013 for the Carte Blanche 2013 the 1st ever 3D electric music carnival in the Southern Philippines. According to the organizers Manic Nightnings Productions and Party Animal Events Productions, 10,032 party ravers enjoyed the drinks, food and most especially electronic dance, electohouse, house, trance music and the like.


Every raver enjoyed what was offered by the event. You'd never be starved because there were many food booths selling different dishes. One booth offered a LECHON BUWAYA which was added attraction to the event. There were also hotdogs, rice toppings, BBQs, fish and squid balls, and more pinoy/davaoeƱos favorite street food.

Wet and Wild. 10,033 party ravers went hardcore as the enjoyed every beat of music.

It was not only the sense of taste was satisfied. I was in awe of the outfits/costumes of the ravers. There were giant clowns, drag queens, mardi-gras like dancers, fire dancers and colorful lights and designs. And because the event was in 3D, I tried wearing the glasses and enjoyed the screens.


For a lover of house music, this event melt my heart for the eargasmic experience. I was in total euphoria. It brought out the party animal inside of me and made me roar. Every track played during the event was savored by my ears which made me dance and jump to the beat.

Though gates were started to open around 3:00 pm, I and my friends arrived at the event around 6:00 pm when all the local DJs already finished their sets. I and my friends were just safe to arrive for DJ Callum David's set. When he played a mash up In My Mind of Ivan Gough and Million Voices of Otto Knows, the crowd went wild. That was only around 6:30pm-7:00pm then. From then on, the party never stopped. All the DJs played great music. My personal favorites were the sets of DJ Katsy Lee, Those Damn Nerds and Curse and Bless. The zombettes set was very naughty and it has also appeal to the audience. And of course, Jackbates and DJ Surf brought a Boracay vibe to Davao City when it was their time to make the ravers jump up and down.

When the rain began to pour, all the people present on that very moment never forgot to remember and sympathize to the victims of the recent super typhoon Yolanda/Haiyan. All were shouting "We'll be OKAY". Beneficiary of this event was the Habitat for Humanity Philippines who will also share the proceeds to the victims of the recent calamity.

Yes, there were some minor complaints from the party goers. I also noticed, correct me if I am wrong, nobody from the line up of the DJs played a track from Armin Van Buuren. Forgive me I am just a fan of him =). However, it didn't matter to me because I experienced what I want to get. And I was also with the right companion and crowd who know how to party.


It was epic, legend, surely left a mark and made history. And I'm looking forward to Carte Blanche 2014.

Kudos to you Kat Dalisay!
