1. Felix is missing (or muted(?));
2. You (and I) are antagonizing them;
3. Your clan is defending them.
Hmmmn! Not a good combination at all! :-\ ;)

Such a fatalistic attitude will get him nowhere!!!!!
And, if every other fellow Filipino back home will follow his example, then, all else is lost. That country will never get out of the gutter. :-\
-

Yes, skipper, know that many people back home have intense dislike for me.
As said, me is a bad influence for you (and for many other o/s Pinoys).
Tungod nko, tihik ka na magpadala.
But gotta be blunt to drive the message thru. Life abroad is not all bed of roses. :-\

Muhammad Ali style. Sneak and run tactics. Not convinced. Next set of pix gotta show him carrying a topless stunner in thong bikini. Only way to prove na magaling talaga mag-conduct ng refresher course ang Mactan Therapeutics. Otherwise, hindi sya tatanggapin dito. ;D ;)

Q1: Has he applied for Broome? ???
Q2: Was the refresher course conducted by Mactan Therapeutic Massage adequate? ;D ;)

Whatever, the real test is Broome. Should he fail, he’s got nobody else but Mactan Therapeutic Massage to blame!!!!!

so you wont get intrigued, the real score is that sila na....They like each other so much. It's not for show.
in other words, wala ka nang chance. So you can call me whatever you like, but it wont change the fact na ayaw na ayaw talaga ni She sayo. And kung hindi ka pa titigil, you will receive not just spanking. Baka martilyuhin na talaga kita.

by Eli blog.eliduke.com
As per one of my New Year’s Resolutions, I’ve been running at the Gerbil Gym a lot lately. I’m usually there for about 45 minutes, and that daily ritual has become the perfect way for me to catch up on the Victory Brothers Podcast. I’ve been out of the loop for quite some time, so I was going through a lot of back episodes. If you’ve never listened to that Podcast before, I would highly recommend it. Maybe it’s just because I know the real-life Victory Brothers, but it’s hilarious. Running and laughing at the same time is hard to do.
Anyhoo, at the beginning of one of the October episodes, Nate starts things off with, “So, Eli’s back in Antarctica,” which is followed by about 10 minutes of groaning and lots of, “Why does Eli like it down there?” It really was hilarious, but it got me thinking: could I actually articulate an answer to that question?
Why do I like it down here?
Before I answer that question, a few caveats.
All of my experience in Antarctica (so far) comes from 2 summer seasons (Oct – Feb) from 2007 to 2009 at McMurdo Station on Ross Island. My first season I was a DA (Dining Attendant [dishwasher]) ;D and my second I was an FEMC GA (Facilities, Engineering, Maintenance, & Construction General Assistant [Grunt]).
Although I am about to tell you what I love about this place, there are plenty of reasons why people don’t like it down here (mainly the bureaucracy). I’m not oblivious to those reasons, it’s just that the pros far outweigh the cons in my mind. Maybe it’s because I’ve got a super positive attitude, or maybe I’m just a lucky guy.
Now, let’s get started.
The Community
McMurdo Station is like no other place that I’ve ever been before. When you live here, you get to be a part of an incredibly vibrant, active, involved, and supportive small-town community. I have so many wonderful friends of all ages, and we all know exactly how we fit together into this weird McMurdo puzzle.
I know who runs the food warehouses, and I know who delivers that food to the kitchen; I know who cooks the food, and I know who cleans the dishes and the pots; I know the Janitors who take out the trash, and I know the Wasties who sort it; I know the Carpenter who fixed my broken window, and I know the Scheduler who put that job into the maintenance system; I know the Fuelies who off-loaded the Tanker, I know the Power Plant Operators who use that fuel to generate power, and I know the Water Plant Operators who use that power to desalinate sea water so that I have something to drink when I’m thirsty. The list goes on and on, and almost everyday I learn something new about how everything fits together.
But what’s truly wonderful is despite the fact that all those people work about 60 hours a week, they also find time to: form bands and play amazing music, make short films for the film fest, run marathons, be awesome and hilarious and caring, teach tap dancing and knitting and jewelry-making, organize alternative art galleries, go hiking or skiing or snowboarding or rock climbing, and throw some of the sickest parties I’ve ever been too. Again, the list goes on and on.
Some people have the idea that there’s “nothing to do” down here, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. I am more busy down here than I am anywhere else in my life. From the second I get off work until the second I go to bed, my days are jam-packed with working out, band practice, hiking, movie nights, dance parties, art projects, photography, blogging… geez, that darn list just keeps going.
The culture down here is so rich, it’s almost unbearable sometimes.
The Environment
Antarctica is a beautiful place, simple as that. McMurdo proper is not a very beautiful place, although it has it’s charm, but the surrounding area is amazing. Just outside of town, just past the city limits, is some of the most beautiful natural landscape I’ve ever seen: the endless ice, the glacier-filled mountains, the ever-steaming 14,000 foot volcano that looms overhead (Mt. Erebus), the pressure ridges, the never-setting sun, the penguins, the seals, the skua, the fata morgana, the clouds, Castle Rock, Ob Hill, Hut Point, etc. On a clear, sunny day during the summer season, the sun feels warm on your face and it’s comfortable to be outside in pants, a light jacket, and a hat.
There’s something about this place that makes you feel alive.
I really appreciate the cold. It’s not like the summers are even that extreme down here (hell, they’re milder than a Minnesota winter by a long shot), but they are cold. Often at the beginning and end of the season you really do need to bundle up if you’re going to be working outside for much longer than an hour. And it’s this element, that we all experience, that adds another layer (no pun intended).
The Work
There are plenty of jobs on station that are not very fun. Lots of people come down for their first season and never make it back again, mainly because they didn’t like their job. It’s completely understandable. But if you’re one of the lucky ones to get a job that you like, or at least some co-workers that you like, then the fun never stops.
I had a great time in the Galley last season because I was surrounded by some really wonderful people, and we made the best out of our situation. I’ve had an ever better time this season with the Plumbers and the rest of the 136 shop (another batch of good peoples) because now I get to work outside and work with my hands and build things and take things apart. Some days we work out at Willy Field, some days we work in the shop, some days I’m cold, and some days I’m hot.
And it’s the work that really makes this place what it is. It doesn’t matter what job you’ve got: we’re all working 60+ hours a week, we’re all ready to party on Saturday night, and we’re all ready to go home when the seasons over. It’s the work that brings you closer to your co-workers, and it’s the work that makes you go crazy in that special McMurdo kinda way.
The Travel
It’s not like I need another reason to love coming down here. But…
When working in Antarctica, it’s an all-expenses paid trip. All your flights from home, to the ice, and back are covered; all your cold weather gear is provided; you never have to pay for any food or rent or laundry; and you get a weekly salary on top of all that. I make the lowest wage possible down here, which it’s equivalent to a full-time job at $10 an hour back home, and it all goes in the bank!
I usually walk outta here (and straight to New Zealand) in mid-February with about $5000 in my pocket (plus around $200 a week in unemployment) and the entire spring, summer, and fall awaiting me with open arms. I’m free as a bird. I didn’t get a job last summer and I’m not planning on getting one this summer. Last season I was in New Zealand for a month, Australia for 2 weeks, Thailand for a month, and then back to the States where I zipped all over the place doing all kinds of cool stuff. This season I’ll be in New Zealand for 2 weeks, Hawaii for a month, and then back to the states for more craziness.
It is the perfect lifestyle for me: lots of work, then lots of non-work. Rinse and repeat.
The Wrap-Up
The truth is: words can never fully do it justice. There is something intangibly awesome about this place that you just have to experience first hand: dinners in the Galley, hiking Ob Hill, a ride in Ivan the Terra Bus, sunsets over the Royal Society, and movie nights at the Coffee House… the list just keeps going and going and going.
You owe it to yourself to give it at least 1 shot.

wow exciting!
Couldn't agree more. :D ;)

welcome back Felix, i welcome you with open arms and perhaps, open legs?

Missing in action again! ??? Why am I not surprised? :D Who told you to p#ss on me? ;) Sh#thead Willyramasola or Dr. Amalayer? ;D

not sure about that

not sure about that
History, mate, quite often repeats itself again and again and ... hehehe :) ;)
The question is what causes history to repeat? Oh, well, in this case, before, it was SHe; now, it's Adelyn.
Soooo timely! What a remarkable coincidence! Don't you agree? And why is Felix missing again? Hmmmm! Very2X intriguing indeed! ;D ;)
To reiterate, before, wa ko magbinuang sa akong tuyo ni SHe; same with Adelyn now. In fact, I even cautioned RG not to display pix of Adelyn in 2-pc.
So, why the same stupid comment? ???

Once again, watch your tongue, mate! And be careful with the people you associate with.
Yep. You were one of those who joined the p#ssing contest bandwagon against me organized by Dr. Amalayer and sh#thead willyramasola.
They're gone but it's a very strong possibility that they're using you. After all, you've been missing in action for quite awhile. So timely tlg ang comeback mo! Adelyn joined, attracted to her and, not long after, you butted in with your stupid comment.
Recall the tv series INCREDIBLE HULK? He was just an ordinary bloke. But when being bullied, he'd say, "Don't make me angry. You won't like me when I'm angry". Why? Bcoz he'd turn into a green monster. :) ;)
