Gloomy Sunday

Gloomy Sunday was also called "Hungarian suicide song" because of the believed to be in part false or misleading, although the music was strangely linked to several suicide cases.

Gloomy Sunday was composed by the  Hungarian pianist and composer Rezső Seress in 1933. 

All of his compositions failed to impress the music publishers of France, but Seress carried on chasing his dream nevertheless. He was determined to become an internationally famous songwriter. 

When the song came to public attention it quickly earned its reputation as a 'suicide song'. Reports from Hungary alleged individuals had taken their lives after listening to the haunting melody, or that the lyrics had been left with their last letters.

 The original composer, committed suicide in Budapest; he survived jumping out of a window, but later in the hospital choked himself to death with a wire. His obituary in the New York Times mentions the song's notorious reputation :

	"Budapest, January 13. Rezsoe Seres, whose dirge-like song hit, "Gloomy Sunday" was blamed for touching off a wave of suicides during the nineteen-thirties, has ended his own life as a suicide it was learned today. Authorities disclosed today that Mr. Seres jumped from a window of his small apartment here last Sunday, shortly after his 69th birthday. The decade of the nineteen-thirties was marked by severe economic depression and the political upheaval that was to lead to World War II. The melancholy song written by Mr. Seres, with words by his friend, Ladislas Javor, a poet, declares at its climax, "My heart and I have decided to end it all." It was blamed for a sharp increase in suicides, and Hungarian officials finally prohibited it. In America, where Paul Robeson introduced an English version, some radio stations and nightclubs forbade its performance. Mr. Seres complained that the success of "Gloomy Sunday" actually increased his unhappiness, because he knew he would never be able to write a second hit."
—The New York Times, January 14, 1968 This is the lyrics of Gloomy Sunday and the translation of that in English. r e z s ő   s e r e s s   l y r i c s Ősz van és peregnek a sárgult levelek Meghalt a földön az emberi szeretet Bánatos könnyekkel zokog az öszi szél Szívem már új tavaszt nem vár és nem remél Hiába sírok és hiába szenvedek Szívtelen rosszak és kapzsik az emberek... Meghalt a szeretet! Vége a világnak, vége a reménynek Városok pusztulnak, srapnelek zenélnek Emberek vérétől piros a tarka rét Halottak fekszenek az úton szerteszét Még egyszer elmondom csendben az imámat: Uram, az emberek gyarlók és hibáznak... Vége a világnak! LITERAL ENGLISH TRANSLATION: It is autumn and the leaves are falling All love has died on earth The wind is weeping with sorrowful tears My heart will never hope for a new spring again My tears and my sorrows are all in vain People are heartless, greedy and wicked... Love has died! The world has come to its end, hope has ceased to have a meaning Cities are being wiped out, shrapnel is making music Meadows are coloured red with human blood There are dead people on the streets everywhere I will say another quiet prayer: People are sinners, Lord, they make mistakes... The world has ended!

10 facts about water scarcity

10 facts about water scarcity

Water is an essential resource for life and good health. A lack of water to meet daily needs is a reality today for one in three people around the world.

Globally, the problem is getting worse as cities and populations grow, and the needs for water increase in agriculture, industry and households.

This post highlights the health consequences of water scarcity, its impact on daily life and how it could impede international development. It urges everyone to be part of efforts to conserve and protect the resource.

1. Water scarcity occurs even in areas where there is plenty of rainfall or freshwater. How water is conserved, used and distributed in communities, and the quality of the water available can determine if there is enough to meet the demands of households, farms, industry and the environment.
2. Water scarcity affects one in three people on every continent of the globe. The situation is getting worse as needs for water rise along with population growth, urbanization and increases in household and industrial uses.
3. Almost one fifth of the world’s population (about 1.2 billion people) live in areas where the water is physically scarce. One quarter of the global population also live in developing countries that face water shortages due to a lack of infrastructure to fetch water from rivers and aquifers.
4. Water scarcity forces people to rely on unsafe sources of drinking water. It also means they cannot bathe or clean their clothes or homes properly.
5. Poor water quality can increase the risk of such diarrhoeal diseases as cholera, typhoid fever and dysentery, and other water-borne infections. Water scarcity can lead to diseases such as trachoma (an eye infection that can lead to blindness), plague and typhus.
6. Water scarcity encourages people to store water in their homes. This can increase the risk of household water contamination and provide breeding grounds for mosquitoes - which are carriers of dengue fever, malaria and other diseases.
7. Water scarcity underscores the need for better water management. Good water management also reduces breeding sites for such insects as mosquitoes that can transmit diseasees and prevents the spread of water-borne infections such as schistosomiasis, a severe illness.
8. A lack of water has driven up the use of wastewater for agricultural production in poor urban and rural communities. More than 10% of people worldwide consume foods irrigated by wastewater that can contain chemicals or disease-causing organisms.
9. Millennium Development Goal number 7, target 10 aims to halve, by 2015, the proportion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation. Water scarcity could threaten progress to reach this target.
10. Water is an essential resource to sustain life. As governments and community organizations make it a priority to deliver adequate supplies of quality water to people, individuals can help by learning how to conserve and protect the resource in their daily lives.

High School Life

High school life was my most memorable for me and it was the time I learned to stand on my own feet without hurting someones else, this is the time that I develop a lot of skills that I treasure in my life. There are so many activities that we've joined in our high school days. 


My high school days was very exciting and enjoyable I experienced so many things and lots of first.First cut classes, skip subject, and even going to the guidance office but not only the bad things that I experienced in my high school days I also experience talk in the front of the class without script. I have a lot experience during my high school days and there are so many activities that me and my classmates enjoyed like "Alay lakad"that was held at the Luneta Grandstand in Manila that was memorable for us because we start walking at exactly 4:00 in the morning and it was raining but then again we don't stop walking until we came to the Grandstand around 7:00am that was memorable. And every year our school have a Field Demonstration and I enjoy it even if I don't have a talent  in the field of dancing but I enjoy it because that is the time that me and my classmates are bonding each other and that was fun. 


I recall the day when me and my two classmates are skipping our mathematics subject and guess what ?? FOOD TRIP I  love food tripping in our school because our school has four canteen and my favorite canteen is the T.L.E canteen because it is the only canteen that selling Ice cream and that day the guidance officers are rotating in our campus if there are students who cut class and they caught us in the canteen so were busted and my mom was called by the officer and my mom was getting mad at me and my Phone is ban for a week and I cannot forget that so that was my last skip class.


I also remember my teachers in high school and and some of them are terror and strict in terms of their activities and homework so I do whatever they give and I cannot forgot my adviser in fourth year she is so terror and she has a very very loud voice even she is petite but even she's terror she is very responsible about her duties and responsibilities as a teacher and as a adviser. I am very proud to be her student because she is very respectful in all the fourth year teachers. I recall the when we are preparing for our advisers birthday in our classroom she is surprise and she cannot expect that we prepared her birthday because she know that we are mad at her because she was terror to us but she was wrong we love her very much because she is a kind of adviser who care about her student and even we don't have connection to each other she encourage us to do our activities, assignments, projects and many more, she always remind us to pass our project and other requirements on the right time that's why I like this I do my responsibilities and passed my requirements on the right time and I am sure that I can do my responsibilities because of her she is our inspiration because someday I wanna be successful like her, I will study hard to reach my goals and to be successful. That kind of teacher I cannot forgot because she encourage us to do our best to successful someday.


That was my high school life and I treasure it forever !! :]    
  

FOOD TRIP !!!!

Food trip is my favorite past time because in "food tripping" I will show my creativity. I started "food tripping" since I was an elementary and my "tripping mates" is my cousin she also love "food tripping"and when I'm entering high school I cannot expect that my classmates love "food tripping" too so my high school life makes is exciting.  I love experimenting desserts because it is easy and efficient and I love deserts. my favorite desserts are cakes, chocolates, candies and ice cream. My favorite cake flavors is Brazo De Mercedes that contains white eggs, milk, vanilla extract,cashew nuts and egg yolks.Those ingredients makes me so hyper because it is very sweet. In chocolates I love the flavors of cadbury because it is not their chocolates are not too sweet that makes me smile and I hate the chocolates that contains nougat, nuts and fruits like Cranberry & Granola, Macadamia, Dream with Strawberry Bits. In candies I like all kind of candies except candies contains nougat and peanut because when I ate peanuts on the next day i have a pimple so i hate peanuts. Lastly is the ice cream. Ice cream is my favorite desserts because it gives me happiness when I taste an ice cream. There are some desserts in the different region in the Philippines like 

Barquillos a flat, sweet flour-based pastry rolled into a hollow tube in Negros Occidental

Balekoy a sweet pastry made from flour, sugar, sesame seeds, and vanilla in Bulacan.

Dodol a toffee-like food delicacy made with coconut milk, Jagger, and rice flour, and is sticky, thick and sweet. It is mostly served during festivals such as Hari Raya Aidilfitri and Hari Raya Haji in Ilocos and Lanao.


Those are the few famous desserts in different region in the Philippines.


I can recall my grandma's expertise she always prepared her desserts in different occasions like birthdays, fiestas, Christmas, new year I always watch her when she prepared her desserts and her specialties in desserts is "Graham cake with kernel corn on the top" I love her Graham because she makes a lot of layers and every layer she filled it with smooth and sweet whip cream that make it special I also love her dishes like "Adobo", "Afritada", "Nilagang baka", "Sinigang" and I also eat exotic food when my grandma cooked it but when the other people cooked it I cannot eat it like "Papaitan", "Bopis" and "ginataang pagi". I ate a lot when my grandma cooked it because my grandma knows what fits in my taste buds and she know how my appetite is satisfied.


I love foods and I know that everyone of us love it too but don't put aside our health we need to have limitation because everything too much is dangerous so don't put aside our health even though we are enjoying about what we are doing so take care our selves because we only have one life.:] 
    

Infatuation VS Love

Infatuation is a very superficial attraction  toward another person. It is the feeling that makes you think it is love. There is nothing better than that feeling. Infatuation usually based in physical attraction you feel those hormones roaring and you constantly mean the other people. Infatuation feels like a magic spell,It's out there, it's some huge outside force .. you fall in love..like you can help it. It's so big you can't express it well you cant measure it. Infatuation is the feeling you get in your brain when you're addicted to the other person like a drug.

Love is  something that only time can define. If you truly love someone,you passionate feeling will continue forever. It means that the passionate will continue forever. If the passion fades a bit and there is still want and you need each other that is love. Love is blind .

It isn't affected by the physical attraction, appearance or even human nature. Love is a tender, passionate, affection for other person. Love can be measure is not only in words but more importantly in "DEEDS" because talk is cheap and LOVE is expensive.Love perseveres. It will stand the a lots of time when infatuation is usually temporary.

Love is much deeper feeling and infatuation is desire only. Infatuation involves passion toward someone else but not necessarily love.

Infatuation comes on strong it doesn't grow into love it starts out like a forest fire.Love can start out strong, but it can also start small at be unkindly into love. If there is one thing that distinguishes those two terms,it is the test of time because love is a lifetime commitment and infatuation involves passion toward someone else but not necessarily the long term commitment. 

Love and Infatuation  is both strong feeling toward, But what would you prefer ?

    

Global Warming

Global warming is caused by the greenhouse effect  and the greenhouse effect is the irresponsibility of the citizen in a country.Because the Citizen do not dispose their waste like plastic properly.Plastic material is one of the cause of the global warming because plastics takes a long time  to decompose and if you cannot dispose it properly it will cause HEAT.

This picture is the possible happen in a few years from now because the iceberg from Antarctica is melting and the amount of water is increasing so the cities in lower place are sinking.

Pollution is one of the major cause of the global warming like Air,Water,Land and even Noise. In Air pollution smoke came from vehicles industrial factories and burning of plastic materials is cause of global warming and it's dangerous to our health because when you absorb that kind of pollution it can cause disease. .

In Water Pollution Improper disposal of toxic waste came from factories may cause a global warming and it can also affect our health.

In Noise Pollution can also caused of global warming because too much noise can also produced heat.Land pollution Littering is the major cause of land pollution because same of our citizen even a samll piece of candy wrapper ,they throw it than to put it on their pocket and it is the cause of global warming but not only global warming even a flash flood  is a effect of land pollution.

We can prevent Global warming by the help of the government ,non-government organization and even the local government unit also help to prevent global warming.

Tree planting is the major project of the government to prevent the global warming,to minimize the heat in our country even us we can help government we can plant a small plant in our backyard in our small ways we can help to minimize the heat in our country.

In non-government organization like SM supermarket and national bookstore they give you a recycled bag when you buy in their store in their small ways they help us to lessen the productivity of plastic bags.

 

In Local government unit they have a project, making a recycled bags using an empty packs of juices and even a empty pack of chips or crackers they they help to lessen our garbage and they can sell it on the market  you prevent global warming and you'll have an extra income.

It is not late to save our earth :]

3rd year (payb-bii)

There are times that I remember my past classmates and I remember the times that we bond each other . In my high school life 3rd year is the most memorable because third year is the time I learned to stand on my own feet without hurting someones feelings.
