Tracy Chapman is a great artist. Even if you might think I'm biased here, she's got the Grammys to prove it, alright?
Here:
1989- Grammy Award for Best New Artist
1989- Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "Fast Car"
1989- Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album
1997- Grammy Award for Best Rock Song for "Give Me One Reason"
But what's more compelling aside from all of that is the award given to her by Tufts (the University she went to) with an Honorary Degree of Doctor of Fine Arts to appreciate her efforts on social and artistic works.
So aren't you convinced yet? Better listen and if you still don't like her music, what are you?

Durhan Beach Resort
Last September 6, 2009 was our quarterly company outing. I woke up early--- call time was 7:00 am, reached M-bank Plaza with anticipation that I maybe the last to board the bus. But nobody's in sight, I found out that almost everyone is late. Tsk, tsk
That day's company outing was headed towards Durhan Beach Resort, located at the northern part of Cebu which is Tabuelan. I sat at the back with Sheila and the gang:

Ocean view when we arrived. There was a tropical depression somewhere so the water's somewhat murky:
The writer's room was on the 2nd floor.
Lunch was lechon and plenty of other mouth-watering menus.
Hospitality from the Durhan staff should be commended. They served, and served us right.
A program followed:
Contender of the Singing Contest from the Writing Team. Toinks:

Raffle prices were mostly won by writers.
Mobile Phones for Melai and Rhoda:
I got a keychain, mouse pad and Bingo Set!
Swimming and Frolicking:
Body-licious writers, eh?
Singit lang ni night shot:
The morning of the following day, we packed and boarded this bus:
Jake was his usual self- restless and clowning:
I'd say the Outing was fun and relaxing!
Next event will be the Team Company Outing. Stay posted!

Farewell, Sucker!
Once again, I sucked at it
I handled it badly and now I'm on the brink of despair again
Just what is that damn formula for a relationship to last?
I thought I was more than ready,
But I sucked and there is no escaping it
I have to face it fair and square;
I must accept that I failed- again
And although I am hurting and so disappointed,
I find solace in the thought that I won't be wrecking havoc once more
Because I'm letting go
I'm letting go now that there is still a sense of respect left,
No matter how my heart entraps me-
I have to force myself to look the other way
Through this, no more pain, shame and torment will shatter both our hearts.
