One day, Haruhi walks into the room of the academy’s host club and breaks a very expensive vase. To pay for it, Haruhi needs to work by serving the host club members.

It was heralded as, by far, the most festive homecoming celebration ever attended by co-batchmates, complimenting its 50&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; stand.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;Talents from various LSA alumni to renowned deejay from de La Salle Greenhills were showcased.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; Free food was served…though slightly budgeted. Hehe. Batch pictures were posted on the walls where you'd be dining. And booths stood around near the gym. La Salle items booths, hotdog booths, coffee booths, booze booths. It pretty much seemed like a mini La Salle Fair&lt;i style=""&gt;, wala lay rides&lt;/i&gt;. &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Hehe. At the gym entrance, you could see a huge La Salle tarp where you could go picture taking like you’re an actress. Hehehe. At the later part of it, the alma mater song was sung by everyone in seemingly great emotional stress. A choreographed disco was steered by deejay…um, whatshisname?..And one the most exuberant part of it was the 20k worth of fireworks display. Well, it was truly a night that took us back to time. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;Four years hence, and a lot has changed in the school grounds. The old tennis court now serves as a gazebo slash terminal for buses, and is being put up with a little Christmas Village. There were two Christmas villages, actually, beautifully lighted and creatively constructed with trees made up of softdrink bottles, which stand up to about 20 feet high. The old high school building is now utilized by night high school students. A new 4-storey building for the “day” which served as our dining area, now stands before the gym. And of course, the old gym is now renovated at long last! Hehe. Bleh :P&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;Anyway, so here’s how the events took place:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Dec. 29:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1:00-3:00 PM – Mass&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3:00-5:00 PM – Motorcade&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5:00-8:00 PM – Dining&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9:00-12:00 AM – Disco&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12:00– (Me not included).

font-family: verdana;" align="center"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;The Story of the Pencil&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;                &lt;p style="font-family: verdana;" class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;A boy was watching his grandmother write a letter. At one point, he asked:&lt;br /&gt;‘Are you writing a story about what we’ve done? Is it a story about me?’&lt;br /&gt;His grandmother stopped writing the letter and said to her grandson:&lt;br /&gt;‘I &lt;i style=""&gt;am&lt;/i&gt; writing about you, actually, but more important than the words is the pencil I’m using. I hope you will be like this pencil when you grow up.’&lt;br /&gt;Intrigued, the boy looked at the pencil. It didn’t seem very special.&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;‘But it’s just like any other pencil I’ve ever seen!’&lt;br /&gt;‘That depends on how you look at things. It has five qualities which, if you manage to hang on to them, will make you a person who is always at peace with the world.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="font-family: verdana;" class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;‘&lt;b style=""&gt;First quality&lt;/b&gt;: you are capable of great things, but you must never forget that there is a hand guiding your steps. We call that hand God, and He always guides us according to his will. &lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="font-family: verdana;" class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;‘&lt;b style=""&gt;Second quality&lt;/b&gt;: now and then, I have to stop writing and use a sharpener. That makes the pencil suffer a little, but afterwards, he’s much sharper. So you, too, must learn to bear certain pains and sorrows, because they will make you a better person.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="font-family: verdana;" class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;‘&lt;b style=""&gt;Third quality&lt;/b&gt;: the pencil always allows us to use an eraser to rub out any mistakes. This means that correcting something we did is not necessarily a bad thing; it helps to keep us on the road to justice.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="font-family: verdana;" class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;‘&lt;b style=""&gt;Fourth quality&lt;/b&gt;: what really matters in a pencil is not its wooden exterior, but the graphite inside. So always pay attention to what is happening inside you.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="font-family: verdana;" class="MsoNoSpacing"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;‘Finally, the pencil’s &lt;b style=""&gt;fifth quality&lt;/b&gt;: it always leaves a mark. In just the same way, you should know that everything you do in life will leave a mark, so try to be conscious of that in your every action.’&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;a style="font-family: verdana;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://school.discoveryeducation.com/clipart/images/pencil_color.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 209px; height: 186px;" src="http://school.discoveryeducation.com/clipart/images/pencil_color.gif" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9207071568439838023-6576118269738178657?l=angelsplead.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://angelsplead.blogspot.com/feeds/6576118269738178657/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://angelsplead.blogspot.com/2009/01/story-of-pencil.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9207071568439838023/posts/default/6576118269738178657'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9207071568439838023/posts/default/6576118269738178657'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://angelsplead.blogspot.com/2009/01/story-of-pencil.html' title='The Story of the Pencil'/><author><name>brei</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01520521562281031531</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ZHBmZ11wGs/TDe_d1zSS2I/AAAAAAAAAHQ/fw5urj4g51o/S220/100_1413.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207071568439838023.post-3319521229772258126</id><published>2009-01-09T22:12:00.003+08:00</published><updated>2009-01-09T22:21:52.504+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='God.'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='paulo coelho'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='love'/><title type='text'>Love Defined.</title><content type='html'>&lt;i  style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="line-height: 115%;font-size:11;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;The following is an excerpt from Paulo Coelho’s book, By the River Piedra, I Sat Down and Wept.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   &lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;With love, there are no rules. Some may try to control their emotions and develop strategies for their behavior; others may turn to reading books of advice from "experts" on relationships but this is all folly. The heart decides, and what it decides is all that really matters.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;All of us have had this experience. At some point, we have each said through our tears, "I'm suffering for a love that's not worth it." We suffer because we feel we are giving more than we receive. We suffer because our love is going unrecognized. We suffer because we are unable to impose our own rules. But ultimately there is no good reason for our suffering, for in every love lies the seed of our growth. The more we love, the closer we come to spiritual experience. Those who are truly enlightened, those whose souls are illuminated by love, have been able to overcome all of the inhibitions and preconceptions of their era. They have been able to sing, to laugh, and to pray out loud; they have danced and shared what has been called "the madness of saintliness." They have been joyful—because those who love conquer the world and have no fear of loss. True love is an act of total surrender.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;Thomas Merton once said that the spiritual life is essentially to love. One doesn't love in order to do what is good or to help or to protect someone. If we act that way, we are perceiving the other as a simple object, and we are seeing ourselves as wise and generous persons. This has nothing to do with love.

With Japan slowly opening up to the rest of the world, he now finds himself using his reverse-edge sword to fight for the new peace Japan has attained, meeting new friends and enemies as he lives out this important historical period.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Fave Factor: A lot of characters we see in the first season are based on real historical people. Bad-cop Saito Hajime, for example, has a real-life equivalent who was also a member of the Shinsengumi, AND was also a police officer. Kenshin himself was based on a real assassin also famous for a style resembling Battou-jutsu. And no,  he didn’t have flaming red hair, nor does he say “Oro!” every time somebody smacked him.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Best Characters: Fruits Basket&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style="text-align: center;font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.animepaper.net/upload/thumbs/wallpapers/Fruits-Basket/%5Blarge%5D%5BAnimePaper%5Dwallpapers_Fruits-Basket_anji_7952.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 307px; height: 232px;" src="http://www.animepaper.net/upload/thumbs/wallpapers/Fruits-Basket/%5Blarge%5D%5BAnimePaper%5Dwallpapers_Fruits-Basket_anji_7952.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tohru Honda’s a young girl who lives all alone in a tent, and supports herself by holding down a job. But despite her tough life, she still keeps a happy and cheerful attitude. Her life takes a turn for the weird when she befriends school heartthrob Yuki Sohma, and ends up living at the Sohma household. It is here that she discovers their family secret – each member is possessed by an animal in the Chinese zodiac, and they turn into their animal form when they’re touched by the opposite gender, or when they’re stressed out!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Fave Factor: Cute guys galore! Yuki’s just one example of the many wacky characters you’ll find in the Sohma household, and each of them transforms into a cute animal! Yuki turns into a mouse, by the way. Kawaii!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Best Powers: Yu Yu Hakusho (Ghost Fighter)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style="text-align: center;font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.northarc.com/images/yyh/Yuyu_a_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 273px; height: 185px;" src="http://www.northarc.com/images/yyh/Yuyu_a_1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When school delinquent Yuusuke Urameshi (Eugene) is killed in a car accident while saving a kid’s life, the spirit world offers him a job as a spirit detective. Yuusuke goes from a cocky neighborhood punk into one of the most powerful spirit warriors in the world, while fighting meaner (and cooler) demons along the way. This is a good ol’ fashioned slugfest.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Fave Factor: All the fighters have their own unique powers. Yuusuke has his trademark Spirit Gun (Rei/Ray Gun), his best friend Kuwabara (Alfred) has a laser…er…Spirit Sword, Kurama (Dennis) has his Rose whip and plant abilities, and Hiei (Vincent) has a wicked third eye, which allows him to summon a demonic black dragon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Best Wardrobe: Cardcaptor Sakura&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div  style="text-align: center;font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.crimsonnight.com/assets/images/Card_Captor_Sakura_202.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 298px; height: 222px;" src="http://www.crimsonnight.com/assets/images/Card_Captor_Sakura_202.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sakura Kinomoto accidentally opens a magical book, which unleashes beings called Clow Cards on the world. It’s up to her, the card guardian Keroberos (Kero-chan), her video cameratoting best friend Tomoyo, and her magic-wielding rival Lee Syaoran to find the cards, even as the story behind these cards and the creator, Clow Reed, unfolds.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Fave Factor: They say this series has more costumes than there are Clow Cards – they weren’t kidding! Almost every episode’s got a new (uber-cute) costume for Sakura, all handcrafted by Tomoyo-chan, each with a look as unique as the series’ Clow Cards.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9207071568439838023-3203356653575531197?l=angelsplead.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://angelsplead.blogspot.com/feeds/3203356653575531197/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://angelsplead.blogspot.com/2008/12/all-time-anime-faves.html#comment-form' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9207071568439838023/posts/default/3203356653575531197'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9207071568439838023/posts/default/3203356653575531197'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://angelsplead.blogspot.com/2008/12/all-time-anime-faves.html' title='All-Time Anime Faves'/><author><name>brei</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01520521562281031531</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='19' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9ZHBmZ11wGs/TDe_d1zSS2I/AAAAAAAAAHQ/fw5urj4g51o/S220/100_1413.JPG'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207071568439838023.post-4784475508356278494</id><published>2008-12-25T18:23:00.022+08:00</published><updated>2008-12-26T11:21:30.925+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='feces'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='health'/><title type='text'>Your Health.

But what happened earlier today is something totally revolting. Two of the most crowded shopping stores in the city – &lt;i style=""&gt;Unicity&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i style=""&gt;Jerry’s, &lt;/i&gt;have been blasted. Another threat, and so many lives have already been sold at a loss.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNoSpacing"  style="text-align: justify;font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;The city has been in a State of Calamity last November &lt;b style=""&gt;18&lt;/b&gt;, 2007. On January &lt;b style=""&gt;18&lt;/b&gt;, 2008, some part of &lt;i style=""&gt;Brgy. Mahayahay&lt;/i&gt; was burned down, causing plight into a number of lives. And of course, who could ever forget the tragic “&lt;i style=""&gt;MILF&lt;/i&gt;” attacks in Lanao del Norte? It happened on August &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;18&lt;/span&gt;, 2008. And then earlier today, the bombing in &lt;i style=""&gt;Unicity&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i style=""&gt;Jerry's&lt;/i&gt;– Dec. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;18&lt;/span&gt;, 2008. Isn’t it weird that these tragic, remarkable incidences happened on the same date? I don't know, just find it weird…and scary. Or maybe they’re just pure coincidences? But, whatever.

These shots are unedited. They’re actually taken from a lomo cam, Holga120N. A lomo camera is typically film-based, producing quality photos in an oldskul effect. It is basically designed so since its details outline authentic quality. It’s bulky and square-faced, pretty retro for the digicam generation. And the results?  awe-inspiring! (you can see for yourself). Every shot is incomparable since the features of the cam make each picture unique. Not to mention that it’s cheap. Prices range from 1k plus to about 20. Cool, huh?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lomo cameras produce these unique, wonderful pics, but nevertheless, creative mindsets would surely find ways for an alternative when these cams aren’t available – and that is, faking lomo using Photoshop! Hehe. Below are a few “lomographs” of my “beloved” city.

The cold of the winter breeze serves as a relief from the ever so hot weather during the usual days. It’s a time where you get to enjoy a cup of hot coffee, and lounge about lazily, just… staring at the computer. And then, suddenly, as if carried across by some gentle wind, you hear your favorite Christmas song (The Christmas Alphabet) chanting on the radio. The music, the beat, the percussions, and even the scent of your coffee spiraling through your nostrils…how they bring chills upon your shoulders, rising up your lips with a torrent of great merriment. And you find yourself smiling in realizing that it’s that time of the year again. The carols, the bells, the lights, the gifts, the great cheers, the blessings, and all the joy… the yuletide season blossoming forth its warm, frolicking glee. Merry Christmas!

Anyway, when she came home, she said that she won’t bother wrapping up her presents to put them down the christmas tree… she then handed them right over. Hehe. It’s a shirt from Artwork that says, “Sometimes I just wave to people I don’t know”. Haha.

It’s amazing how every minute seems to walk in a fast pace, making you regret your lounging and idling about the whole day. My surroundings are muted by the hour, discreetly intervened by the roaring sound of the fan that’s hanging on the wall. The air is warm, stubbornly opposing the soothing feel of the ventilator. And the sound of little insects are resonating from at the back of the house. Makes me wonder what great deed I’ve done today that would consider this day productive. And then I begin to worry. All the pressure, the demands, the meeting-the-deadlines, the inadequacy, time. It’s like wading through the jagged street you built with your own procrastinations. (duh?). Anyway, &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;gudnyt everyone. Another day’s in store. Tomorrow’s another chance.

I’ve just recently started my blogging career. Hehe. This is a fresh start for me since I don’t usually share my thoughts, especially to the public. Hehe. But hey! I figured this is one way of growing and learning, so why not come up with a blog of my own so I can somehow find a way to wear off my constant hiding up my sleeves? Hehe. So let’s “let the cat out of the bag”… coz here I’ll be speaking my mind out, with my nonsense blabbers and some interesting topics as well. So... Welcome to my blog! Thank you much for stopping by! see ya!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9207071568439838023-5625653998036710278?l=angelsplead.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://angelsplead.blogspot.com/feeds/5625653998036710278/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://angelsplead.blogspot.com/2008/12/brei-here-welcome.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9207071568439838023/posts/default/5625653998036710278'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9207071568439838023/posts/default/5625653998036710278'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://angelsplead.blogspot.com/2008/12/brei-here-welcome.html' title='Brei Here!
