Man shot to death by nephew By David Jhules Maceda Last June 12, 2008, a man was shot to death by his nephew in Barangay San Antonio, Municipality of Sibulan, Negros Oriental. At around 9pm in the evening of June 12, 2008, Mr. Pio Barandog, uncle of the accused, Mr. Adolfo Barandog, was shot to death in the act of defending himself in his own residence when attacked by his nephew. Earlier that evening, Pio Barandog was in their living room along with his family when his brother, Honorato Barandog, came barging in their house asking for help because his son was challenging him to a fight and was also seeking help after what his son did to him. Pio advised his brother to stay inside the house while he went outside the house to try and pacify his nephew. After a few minutes, they heard gunshots and found Pio lying on the ground clutching his stomach. They then rushed Pio to the hospital and was pronounced dead just before midnight. Doctors claimed that Pio died not because of the bullet that was found in his lateral abdominal wall, the part of which that had the most serious damage, but because Pio had heart problems and had a cardiac arrest while the doctors were preparing for the operation. A day after the said incident, the suspect, Adolfo, surrendered himself to the Sibulan Police station and was accompanied by a barangay councilor, Mr. Isabelo Eumague, of Looc, Sibulan. However, the suspect didn’t surrender the gun that he used in committing the crime. After the appropriate cases were filed, Mr. Adolfo Barandog was found guilty of the crime of homicide and was sentenced to imprisonment ranging from six (6) years to fourteen (14) years and eight (8) months of reclusion temporal, maximum and is adjudged to indemnify the heirs of the deceased victim, Mr. Pio Barandog, the sum of fifty thousand pesos (P50, 000.00) due to his untimely death. Also, he was sent to the New Bilibid Prison at Muntinlupa City, Metro Manila, where he will be detained.

i love this song... keep on rocking jordin. she performed this song on american idol "judgement day"

oh yeah! summer is almost over and it only means one thing... classes nasad... huhuhuhuhhu... ='( i can't believe nga in ato ra kadali ang summer... well, what can i say? time passes by so fast when you are having fun. aw? nosebleed...

its been a week or so since i got out from the hospital, i was admitted because i have this so-called "fistula in anu" and in multiple status and i have to have it removed or else it will get worst and mind you, it was the most excruciating, most painful thing in the world, i wont be able to do the things that i usually do and all the crazy stuff that it does to me, damn it drives me so damn crazy. but now, i am on the recuperating stage. i had an operation and it went well. the fistula is about to be gone by now or maybe in a couple more weeks i dont really know. but dang, the aftermath of the operation is still driving me crazy. but all the while i am thankful that i had the operation because it means that i wont be suffering from this agony for quite some time. others say that it will come back, i mean the fistula, but at least not for quite some time, as long as i follow the doctor's order. hmph.. aside from that, it's already summer here, and it means really hot weather and all that and i really love to go out and stay on the beach for a long time and just stay in the water for as long as i want. and oh, one thing. my friends are on their OJT. they are separated in two groups, the other group (composed of hannah, dawn, gen2, gretchen, and donna) are in cebu, the left for cebu a couple weeks back and the other group (composed of noriel, cathy, yanz, and carla khaye) which i dubbed the pure ilonggo group is leaving for davao today. damn, i miss them so much. i hope that they will all do fine and that they will be ok all through out the OJT months... hmph, if i didnt just stop for one semester, i wouldve been in either of the groups but im sad to say that i did and now im stuck here at home doing nothing all day and only worrying about what to do next after the other and it kinda sucks because its so damn boring and you know the feeling, i mean, doing nothing and just kinda waste all that time doing nothing... i really hate that. instead of being able to do a lot in a span of time, instead, i sulk all day and the only companion that i have is my cellphone, which i hate as well because nobody bothers to give me a beep or any message at all and the airtime that i have would be put to waste because it will reach its expiration time without being able to make the most out of it. hmph... life really gets boring in this part of the world. if i was so damn rich, i wouldve been spending all my cash away in some summer get away in an exotic country alone and just do all the exploring all by myself and just enjoy the moment. damn, i wish all of this would come true and i would definitely be the most happiest person in the whole wide world...

i am undergoing an operation tomorrow... shit, you just don't know how scared i am right now, but they said i should stay relax and calm and never think about the operation.. well,ok.. i will do that... pray for me...

ever even wondered why i am so damn stressed out? well, first of all i never had enough sleep. I've been busy these past few weeks trying to figure out what to do with myself, no kidding. ha! ha! ha! i am just kidding. actually, i was very busy, but not because i am trying to figure out what to do with my life, but because of writing so many news stuff for major. it's so damn stressful, it will really test you endurance, patience and even you mentality, and to think its only basic news writing, but its already giving me headaches and all the kind of aches in the world. damn! well, i cant blame news writing for giving me so much pain and all that, it's gonna be finals week in 2 weeks and I've got to work twice as much as we did on regular days... shit! hmph... what else should i tell you? my life, these past few weeks, has been a roller coaster ride for me. i don't know what else to think and i am absolutely out of my league. i don't even have time for myself. and, oh yeah, my phone broke down this morning and it really got me pissed off when i asked my cousin to fix it (he fixes phones and computers and all that and he's one heck of a techno freak) because he kept on talking and talking and talking instead of listening and you know me, people with that kind of attitude pisses me off. honestly, would you like somebody yelling at you when you have something to say? i don't think so. what else should i talk about? there is nothing much that is happening around me now, except maybe for the fact that its a weekend and its so damn quiet here and you know it bores me so much, with my phone down and out, and listening to music could bore and just talking about anything here in the blog could really, too, make you boring. oh well, i think i'll just have to stop here for the moment. peace out.
