Wish List

People at this time of year are making their wish list. There's nothing wrong with this, you know. Wishing (and dreaming) will always be free. And besides, some generous person my read your wish list and may decide to just give it to you. You'll never know.

But if you're making a wish list, I suggest you don't become shy. Don't wish for something you can afford. Let your heart's desire speak.

So in that mindset, here's my wishlist:

1. A tricked out MacPro, with the following specs:

Specifications
spacer.gif
  • Two 3.0GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon
  • 16GB (8 x 2GB)
  • 4 750GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s (total of 3 Terabytes of storage)
  • NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 512MB, Stereo 3D (2 x dual-link DVI)
  • 2 Apple Cinema HD Displays (30" flat panel)
  • Two 16x SuperDrives
  • Both Bluetooth 2.0+EDR and AirPort Extreme
  • Apple USB Modem
  • Apple Wireless Keyboard and Apple wireless Mighty Mouse
  • Mac OS X
  • Mac OS X Server (Unlimited-Client, actually, I may not need this)
  • Final Cut Express HD, Logic Pro, Finale 2007 preinstalled
  • AppleCare Protection Plan for Mac Pro/Power Mac (w/or w/o Display)

Cost: $18,673.00

2. Korg Oasys, 88-key synthesis studio, that will be attached to the Mac Pro, I'll also retain my X5D, for a two-synth set-up

Cost: more than a half million pesos ($10,000.00)

3. A Toyota Fortuner V 3.0 Dsl, A/T, tricked out with accessories

Cost: P2.0 Million pesos (about $40,000.00)

4. A trust fund for my kids (assurance they will graduate and have a good future, regardless of what happens to me)

Cost: about P10-15 Million pesos ($300,000.00)

5. A studio-type condominium unit in the Gateway mall area

Cost: about P6.0 Million pesos, fully furnished. ($150,000.00)

6. A mid-level Rolex watch

Cost: about P300,000.00 (about $6,000.00)

7. A professional flute (no specific brand/model yet)

Cost: $5,000.00

8. A MacBook Pro (will never have enough Macs; then I'll give away Scarlett and Jessica to my dad and some lucky girl willing to go out with me...)

9. A 24" iMac (for Bea; Nico gets Lindsay, after I trick her out with more memory, a bigger hard drive and iSight)

10. Other gadgets to specified later, like a big LCD screen TV, home theater, celphones, a new PDA and a DSLR camera with lenses

11. A master's degree in Law at Harvard University (that's the dream I gave up when I chose to marry... d'oh!)

Cost: Estimated $100,000.00

12. Pay for my best friend's bypass operation, plus give him a job with less stress, so he can still support his family

There's probably more, I'll just update this as it comes to me.

Hey! As I said, it's free to dream.

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.

Side Oath

The Lawyer's Oath
I do solemnly swear that
I will maintain allegiance to
the Republic of the Philippines,
I will support its Constitution
and obey the laws as well as
the legal orders of the
duly constituted authorities therein;
I will do no falsehood,
nor consent to the doing of any in court;
I will not wittingly or willingly
promote or sue any groundless,
false or unlawful suit,
nor give aid nor consent to the same;
I will delay no man for money or malice,
and will conduct myself as a lawyer
according to the best of my knowledge
and discretion with all good fidelity
as well to the courts as to my clients;
and I impose upon myself this voluntary obligation
without any mental reservation
or purpose of evasion.
So help me God.
