Mt. Timbak - Scaling the third-highest Peak in Luzon

Scaling Mount Timbak was really such a great experience! Meeting with new folks, be inspired by the locals, sharing insights and laughing over silly jokes with the Conqueror Outdoor Club it was indeed a meaningful and fun experience that I will treasure forever.

Cagbalete Island Experience - Php 1,200 Cheapest Budget Ever!

Glad our CAGBALETE ISLAND Trip was a success. Thanks to Ms. Tess of Villa Cleofas who answered all of my inquiries and to Josiah Sicad of Lakas Trip. I'm glad that I stumbled upon his blog for this made our journey possible in the cheapest way.

Calaguas Island - Beach Bum's Paradise

What I love in Calaguas Island is its shimmering grains of powder-white sand and its awesome turquoise waters. No doubt, these make me want to go back again!

Dare to Climb a Mountain?

We face a lot of challenges everyday of our lives. Some are easy to handle while some may seem too much for us to take. And as I gradually became fond of climbing lately I realized that Life is.. Life is also a mountain to climb!

From Religiosity to Relationship

I was very sincere in seeking God. But I also saw the reality that my religiosity in church did not carry over to my life at home. I got angry at my nieces and pinched them whenever they touched my things, gave my mom, my ate, a weeks/ or month of silent treatment in rebellion to their strictness, spent hours devouring novels and giving way to my imaginations. I was selfish and self-centered.

RT3

When we offer a help to other people often times we think we change them,
but the truth is they're changing us. :)

You don't have to be extraordinary to create a change :)

Change Starts With U!
I was actually feel so honored and blessed to be part of the success of the biggest and 100th Event of "U!", "U! Can RESTORE medical/dental mission and nourishment program". The event was held last Saturday at Delpan Sports Complex Tondo, Manila.
"U! Happy Events" have been creating various, fun, impact-filled events to bring out better opportunities to kids and their families, to their communities and even to their partners. It was founded by Harvard Uy de Baron.

I believed there are 35 doctors, 31 sponsors, more than 150 kids, 155 parents, 16 leaders, 14 dentists, 12 nurses, and more than 115 Volunteers have participated in the event.


We really had a great time! You know the feeling of being physically tired? Yet, you still feel good?Yes! the experience is sooo.. rewarding :) And.. when you see those lil' kids of Ulingan Tondo get excited about the learning, and those priceless smile when we started giving away hotdogs it really worth of the time and effort.  Plus the people that we met, they're are smart and interesting. This experience demonstrate very clearly to me that we don’t have to be in any particular job or circumstance to be extraordinary and make a difference. Also it doesn't need to take hundreds of hours or lots of money. All it takes is just a little time and effort. : )
Kids are approaching...  and 200 more hotdogs are still need to cook. Kaya namen toh! :D

 
Ate Eden Gatpandan of URC (Universal Robina Corp.)  started giving away big boy hotdogs. yey!


Delpan Sports Complex was almost filled with the participants.

 

I'm really thankful that I said 'yes' with my friend for this program. It was an awesome experience! I was actually feeling down the past few weeks it seems that things are not exactly going my way. Yung feeling na ang dami mong gustong gawin, ang dami mong gustong bilihin pro wala! Parang walang nangyayare. I really felt I was swimming against the current! :(  Can't help it but feel envious. And then this event made me realize that I have so much in life to contend with :) It just seeing things from a different perspective.. ^^
When you choose to be cheerful & thankful then life takes on a different look. Life takes on a different feel.
Ikaw din, kung ikaw man ay isa sa mga bata na nagmumukmok simply because you're mom can't afford to buy you a cellphone, isipin mo na lang na maraming bata na kasing edad mo na naglalakad ng ilang kilometrong bundok makapasok lang sa eskwelahan. Or kung isa ka naman sa mga nagsisimyento na hindi makapunta sa isang magandang beach resort, isipin mo na lang na ang iba nga sa aten ay isang beses na lamang kumain sa isang araw at ang iba naman, sa kawalan ng makakain ay itinutulog na lamang nila ang nadaramang paghapdi ng tiyan. Sounds cliche? But it's really true. And you are blessed! We are are still blessed!

Robina Farms Big Boy Hotdog

It's a fun-filled Saturday. Indeed, Volunteering rocks! And to end this not so long post ^^ I want to encourage you to pick something which is important to you  and see what you can do to help. Can you offer time, money, your voice or influence? I tell you, so many people would really, really, really appreciate your help & attention. : )

Ang Tipo Kong Lalaki

Hahaha natatatawa ako actually habang ginagawa ko 'to.
Wala lang naisip ko lang naman, masama?
Sa dami ng mga taong ating nakikilala,
sa araw araw na mga balita ating nasasagap
Sa mga babasahing ating nababasa
Sa "screen" man o papel
Kaakibat nito ang mga pagbabago nagaganap sa ating buhay.
At isa na nga dito ay ang pagkakaroon ng linaw sa tipo ng lalaking
nais nating makasama habang buhay.. Ayeee!!!

So, anu ba kase ang tipo mong lalaki?
Minsan tanong ng ilang kong beking kaibigan
Matanong nga kita, anu ba ang hanap mo sa isang lalaki??
Madalas na tanung nila saken pag my gathering
So Jek, What are you looking for in a guy?
Just a random question from my boss.
At ang pinaka-latest,
Bat kase wala ka pang boyfriend, anu ba gusto mo?

Believe me, sometimes it could be a tough question for a single like me.
And when somebody ask this thought-provoking question,
the first thing that pop up in my bubble thought is.... *drum rolls*
God Fearing! Wapak! I know right, so general! Miski ako
mababatukan ko ang sarili ko, at honestly gusto ko din batukan
yung tao kaparehas ng sagot ko.

No, don't get me wrong. I mean lets get this straight.
God Fearing, yehess! The answer for me is too general. So what else?!

So here you go...  the difficult part.
Ang tipo kong lalaki, hmmm...
Kahit hindi sya mayaman basta masipag sya.
Yung tipong hindi sya mahihiyang magtinda kasama ko ng isda
o kahit anung pedeng itinda na marangal pag tipong walang-wala na kami.

Definitely he can make me laugh and smile! :D Kahit cornie basta andun yun effort keri na din!

He will love and RESPECT my family as much as I do

Moreno ^^ or Maitim yung tipong hindi takot marumihan..
A man of few words..
Yung tipong hindi sya masalita, pero pag nagsalita na sya, mapapa WHOA kana lang
kase may laman talaga yung sinasabi nya..
Yung Suplado-effect. Tipong may pagka misteryoso.. hehehe..
Tapus, sana hangga't maari, ako lang sana ang bisyo nya.. hahaha!
Tapus.. yun lang. ^^ Simple lang naman ang gusto ko.
Yung lalaking pakakamahalin ako at pakakakamahalin mga taong mahal ko. :)

Ikaw ba, anu ang tipo mo sa isang lalaki? aaaaaaaaaayiiiiiiiiiiieee.. :p

love and petals,
