Lagi Kitang Naaalala - Philippine Madrigal Singers

"Lagi Kitang Naaalala"
lyrics by: Levi Celerio


Lagi kitang naaalala
Kahit na pilitin kong limutin ka.
Nilimot na kita sa aking buhay
Ngunit pangarap din kita.


Habang ikaw ay nililimot
Ay lalong sumisidhi ang pag-irog.
Sa aking puso ay nakalarawan,
pag-ibig mo, lamang.


Kung tunay ang tanging pagmamahal
Ay di mapaparam
Habang nagdudulot ng pighati
Lalong di mapawi.


Lagi kitang naaalala
Kahit na pilitin kong limutin ka.
Sa aking puso ay nakalarawan
pag-ibig mo, hirang.



Pag-ibig ko'y laging ikaw.

Your favorite music = happy heart

WASHINGTON (AFP) - - Listening to your favorite music may be helpful to maintaining a healthy heart, according to a study.

The research team at the University of Maryland School of Medicine announced they had shown for the first time the emotions aroused by music enjoyed by the listener to be beneficial to a healthy blood vessel function.

The team, who in a 2005 study noted the cardiovascular benefits of laughter, presented their work at the 2008 Scientific Sessions of the American Heart Association in New Orleans.

"I was impressed with the highly significant differences both before and after listening to joyful music as well as between joyful and anxious music," said head researcher Michael Miller, director of preventive cardiology at the University of Maryland Medical Center and associate professor of medicine at the University of Maryland School of Medicine.

The study found that participants -- 10 healthy, non-smoking volunteers -- listening to music that gave them a sense of joy caused the inner-lining tissues of blood vessels to expand, which increased blood flow.

The response matched the result of the 2005 study of laughter.

To minimize desensitization of emotions felt by listening to their favorite music, participants were instructed to avoid listening to the pieces for a minimum of two weeks before the test.

"The idea here was that when they listened to this music that they really enjoyed, they would get an extra boost of whatever emotion was being generated," said Miller.

The study found that the diameter of the average upper arm blood vessel increased 26 percent after listening to joyful music, and listening to music that caused anxiety narrowed blood vessels by six percent.

The physiological impact of music may also affect the activity of the "feel good" brain chemicals called endorphins, according to the study

The study's results, said Miller, signal yet "another preventive strategy that we may incorporate in our daily lives to promote heart health."

How To Deal With A Difficult Boss


I was once worked in an outsourcing company before and I had to admit that my former boss is FULL of CRAP... Not only did he give a hard time with me, but also to my other officemates as well...

I found this post from one of my former officemates and I think it's very helpful for everyone here who has trouble dealing with their nemesis (their boss, hahaha!)
To everyone here employed, this one's for you... :D

Well if you have worked for anytime at all, you have had the opportunity to work with a difficult boss. I have had the pleasure of working with many over my lifetime and have learned a few interesting ways to handle a difficult boss.

First, Change your perspective.As long as you see your boss through your "jerk" filter, your boss will be a jerk. Let that go and see your boss as just your boss. Period. Don't make judgments or put labels on the boss. Realize that your boss just is. Shifting your perspective will help you to begin to shift the energy around how you think and respond to your boss.

Second, Learn to manage your boss.

Third, Understand that your boss is not going to change. I have worked with clients that think that if they just do their job better, faster, or more elegantly, the boss will see how valuable they are and change their evil ways. Ha, in your dreams! The boss is not going to change.

Fourth, Know that it does not matter if you like your boss.You do not have to be best friends with the boss. You do, however, have to have a professional relationship. That means that you do not complain or gossip about your boss and you get your job done.

Fifth, Understand that you have a few choices. You can stay and live with it or you can leave. You can either adapt to the situation or leave the situation. If you feel like the boss has done something illegal, you can always see a lawyer and find out what your rights are. You might also talk to someone in your Human Resource Department or the Equal Employment Opportunity person in your company. The thing to remember is that you are never powerless. Even if all you can do is control your own actions and attitudes, remember you are in control.

Sixth, Document everything. Documentation will support you if you ever have to file a complaint. Keep detailed records about the interactions with your boss, the work you are doing, and anything else that may seem important.

Seventh, Everyone is someone's difficult person. It is a matter of maintaining your sanity.

Eighth, Find someone outside of your work environment to talk with.

Lastly, Remember, you have the POWER!!Don't let anyone take it from you. Control your actions and attitudes. As long as you are in control, you are better able to manage the situation and make the best choices.


Good Luck! :D
