Nanay gave me the name "Jay" after realizing that its easier for me to write it than Julius — both are names of actor Jay Ilagan, Julius was his real name… showbizzzzz, hehehe

loves relating to people, would love to learn how to swim, scuba dive, drive and play lawn tennis…TV addict ;-), loves to sleep … loves watching movies…recently been reading COELHO and BROWN…drinks (occasionally) and dances — oftentimes combination of both, hehehe… wants to visit THAILAND, CHINA, PARIS, INDIA, EGYPT, AFRICA–thanks to The Amazing Race!!!!! :D :D :D

few realizations:
- the only thing that I can be in control of is MYSELF;
- I should always seek for opportunities to be interested rather than interesting;
- to disagree but at the same time not being disagreeable;
- to look at the brighter side of life;
- to understand that every event has its purpose and every single thing has its use;
- I REALLY have to respect nature;
- it’s possible to just sit and not say anything and still communicate;
- to give up little sacrifices so as to benefit others;
- to recognize that all things–great and small– came from GOD who knows and sees everything;
- to be confident that I have a God greater than my concerns and mightier than "the other guy"…

All things summed up: I’m just a regular, good-looking (yikes! BWAHAHAHA!) guy who appreciates life…. I thank God for the Gift of Life!!!
