Goodbye Cory

Cory C. Aquino


Maria Corazon Conjuangco Aquino. President of the Philippines. The woman in yellow
that bravely gathered a nation to stand up and fight a regime of dictatorship. The woman so adored by many people not just in one country but the entire world. The mother of the oppressed who brought hope and changes to the lives of many Filipino people. An epitome of a leader, honest, considerate and God-fearing. The mother of Filipino Democracy..Cory ..

July 30, 2009 I went home late night, or should I say early morning, I swear I have made up my mind that I will start writing in my blog again. I thought of writing something about something else, this time not about myself, but just like those blogs that advertise and all. However, that was not my style in blogging. When I write, I put my whole heart to my topic, I only write what I know, what I experience, what I believe and what I hope.

So, writting a blog about Tie a Yellow Ribbon was rather pre empted only in my thoughts. I don’t know how to begin something I only know so little of. So next morning I researched. Amazing. It was extremely amazing how much information are available online. Google the phrase tie a yellow ribbon for Cory, or google the name Cory alone and it will pull up tons of sites. The support of the people is overwhelming. Different blogs changed colors in support for her immediate recovery. Suddenly I realize how beautiful the color yellow is. And just like Red which means love. Because of Cory. To me Yellow should mean Compassion.

Once again Cory brought a nation together, political opponents prayed together, the rich and the poor vigiled in one harmony. There was peace. Everyone was praying for a miracle. To aid in the illness of a woman who had been a great mother, wife and a leader.
Cory a woman of valor inspired many people to cling to the Lord at all times. The love of God will always pour mercy upon those who ask for it, theres no discrimination, all is fair in life or death.

Aug 1, 2009 1:00am, I wrote a draft about how im going to write my “tie a yellow ribbon” version in my blog and I slept in joy because I was able to do something else aside from writing about myself and gaming. I was touched by those online prayers I read and those supports I have seen online. I woke up very early to have this typed in my PC but news had it. Cory passed away already. I was late.

I did not continue typing that article anymore, I stayed on the TV for a little bit more. Theres an evident atmosphere of loneliness in all the stations. But that was expected. After all Cory was not an ordinary woman. She was a mother of a nation with an extraordinary virtue. Her death proved even more that no matter how much differences we have as individuals, we can be united together by one man..or Rather.. one Woman.

Cory. We will miss you .

oDesk is REAL.

My sister worked with oDesk a year ago, When we still live in the old house, with internet connection and a working PC. I know only a little about her assignment but what I do know is she serves as an assistant to a broker, a person dealing with lots, realties, properties etc. Her main obligation is to propose a certain property to prospective buyers, she does area research to help the buyers in decision making and to promote selling their properties. Her bestfriends are tools available online. Google Maps FTW! From our house PC she calls the clients and maintains constant communication with her boss during her online times. She even enjoys a free VOIP access a privilege given by her boss for her own convinience

My sister maintains a fulltime job as a call center agent in Makati, that’s atleast 1 hour drive away from where we live. As soon as she’s home she works on oDesk for 3-4 hours, wearing her house blouse and also doing her personal stuff and sometime cuddling with my dog too!. oDesk is really convenient, afterall you get to work wherever you like as long as you have internet connection.

Hiraia of AruaRose

April 10th. It was a sunny Good Friday when i received a message i have already been expecting a long time ago. My characters got banned from the game and i know exactly why. I should say, leaving the game did not hurt this time because there is someone making me much more happier, but thanks to the game, because that's where i found him..

I started playing RoseOnline when i was still in good terms with my first boyfriend , back then game bacame our past time and bonding session, when i lost my job, game became my obsession, during the rocky times of my first relationship, my characters became my inspirations, in times of financial needs, zulie became my salvation. RoseOnline became a really great part of my life, i started living inside the game specially when i moved out of my parents house and lived with someone. Those agonizing years i was able to overcome because i get to talk to people ingame, those that i met and becase real friends with me, real-life friends.

Somewhere in cyberspace i've written a dedication for my first character when the Phil Server closed. http://mauieghurl.blog.friendster.com/2007/07/farewell-prose/ ..So this part is only reserved to my character/s in AruaRose, a private server Roseonline i have so loved.

Hira's first clan : Requiem (Aug 2007) i made a few friends there and i can still remember a few like Nona and his brother, i was graced by his buffs when i was still on my second job quest which back then was waaaaayy looooot harder to finish.



Hira's Second Clan. Memorable clanmates vbox and artisanmasteriLeSaMis : Hira's Third Clan: LeSamis, clan owned by Roy (Angelo) a friend from Zamboanga,it was my idea why this clan was made, i asked Roy to make our own clan and he did this counterpart of the Lesamis he created in Prose,the name is French which means "Friends" and the symbol is a flower (quite feminine eh..) he said that in Japan it means Youth. Consecutively, Youth means Power. Memorable characters here of course are edwin (elishacuthbert, archill3s) and nez's chars. (roznes,k1ngofdeath)

Gamma: Hira's Fourth Clan: headed by Josh and Lisa an American friend memorable chars are Isolde (lisa's cleric), Slayer (Aaron), iamLegend (josh's new char before i left). I could not find a solo pic back then here was the time when i was farming Astaroth King Wing in Luna CF, with my noob scout PrincessMau.


LastWish: Hira's Fifth Clan, it was a turning point for me joining this clan, i was already close to completing my gems and my set when i joined LW and Edwin the clan master that time was very nice to me being one of the Pinoy's in clan i was never discriminated whatsoever, this clan made me feel so much loved and the dutch friends i made here are superb..a few ign i can still recall during my stay in LW : Edwin (xThey,xUs) Arrie (xxHilarioxx), Mariaa (MarioPlasma), Rutger etc...


Rewind: Hira's 6th Clan. There's so much to say about this clan, my first ever clan that actually ruled the game and i was lucky enough to be with them during those times. Fun eventually stopped when the masters left the game out of boredome, clan was left to me and Mina's care which did not turn exactly right because Mina and i stopped talking due to some reasons i cant elaborate here.Summer of 2008 we started farming for out ONLY subclan .. xRewind, eventually made it 5th grade. Theres so much discussion here about my adventures in rewind, just check previous post if necessary.

DET- DontEvenTrip .. My Last Clan, Probably the coolest CM i met here, Jayt and the richest people ingame being with this clan was fun. Theres so much i wanted to say about my stay here that i cant think how to begin lol. Its the only clan i will ever join incase i come back playing, which in this case close to impossibility. DET is the reason why i logon to Aruaforums, i gained so many friends here also fell inlove here <3> Elisha quitted and i made a new character from the account which i named xHiRaIa. not long have gone, xHiRaia joined DET after i left my original cleric.

SweetHeart: my Own clan. After quitting from actively playing Rose, my boyfriend and i decided to quit and i made my own clan to serve as a home for all my characters so it would be easy to chat when i am online chilling with my BF.



i have two vendors ingame :Hirala and Apolla
Hirala vending
Apolla's Vends

KingArthurII was the very first noob edwin made for me so i can have a knight of my own farming warbiz. This picture was taken two weeks after Rewind became Grade5. It was also Edwin's First Time to see the Beach.

Dance : Doing nothing makes you insane in Arua so out of boredom here i started dancing and everyone else followed. pics would show im with Mairyel and Tetrode, clanmates from Rewind.

Rest : Its not all farming, i rest too and during breaks, i made it a point to put on a nice pose. Thats my cleric and my raider.


Farming Points: thats me and myra and lalaine posing while farming clan points for xRewind.


Warring : Farming clan points means war explicitly. I always bring Amaziah even in wars.


Clan Fun :Rewind was having fun posing here during our first few days farming cp for our subclan. Lina (PurpleKitty) was still present here.

Porch: Rewinds Claim, after grade 5 Rewind members would proudly AFK here in the Xita circle where everyone could see them wearing their Red Tag, Pimpy bikinis and shiny leet gears..back then people can just "Wow" over some things, lols..




Love in the Game : Since Rose bacame a very big part of my life i had been touched and moved by different persons here, those that influenced my gaming, those that changed me, and those that made lifelong impressions to me, ingame and in real life.. Hiraia loved ..

Hira and Intelasus
