HALALAN 2013 (PHILIPPINES NATIONAL ELECTION 2013)

May 13, 2013 was the schedule of the Philippines National Election. It was called “Halalan” in our dialect. This time we may able to choose our new set of officials from National down to Local. As preparation for the said election, the candidates are having their campaign. They have different types of ads on how to be known. They also visit different parts of the Philippines to let their goals and wants be understood by the people. There are many who run as Senatorial for National candidates and Governor’s and Congressman and also Representatives for Regional. For Local there are those Mayor’s and beyond.

The most important point during election for me is, choosing the one who do you think will be right for the position, kung baga choose from your heart. Aside from being capable (since there are many or almost of the candidates are capable), choose the one who is good for the said position/s. As it is already a week now, it was just about two results; the candidate may win or lost. For those who win (though other candidates win I don’t know why, hehe), let’s just respect their success for we don’t know what are they capable of. We shouldn’t limit to ourselves for what we may be personally know about them. And for those who lose the battle better luck for the next 3 years election again.

I am hoping personally that those who are chosen will do their responsibilities. Let there be progress in our country.

Kudos to all who win! J

RESORT de ALBERTO (Travel Diary)

Feel the heat? Yeah, it’s summer. Summer in the Philippines is so blistering. If you’ll gonna see pictures in the social media sites, beach, pools and many other more images are flooding. Everyone wants to soak in the sea, dive in the pool and enjoy the water splashing experiences. Besides, who doesn’t want when everybody are enjoying. The scorching heat of the sun makes us want to explore the deepest part of the water area. Many celebrate summer in the sea, falls, pool, river and may other more. Summer isn’t over yet, and we also want to experience it.

A month before May, we were planning to have a trip. Actually months before May, we were planning to head Camiguin but the plan was unfortunately stopped because of some instances. Well, I think the summer vacation must still go on. I’m thinking of a place not too far and of course not too expensive and I ended up with the idea of coming to this beautiful and peaceful resort, Resort de Alberto. With a little background check from a friend I was able to hand in some budget and it did work out. Yeah. So, check out below some cool summer pictures J

This travel was so amazing and it was wonderful. Summer is therefore unforgettable experience. 

P.S. I think the pictures itself show how beautiful the resort is. The place is so relaxing and peaceful. 

So how did you spend your summer guys? :) 

It takes an IRON MAN and a WOMAN

LOL, yes the title, quite funny but IRON MAN. Oh how I loved this movie so much. Me my self really loves Iron Man. It’s a sort of unbelievable thingy but many love to believe it. LOL.

Iron Man is a fictional character and a super hero based in the Marvel Comic.

This character was played by Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark and with his secretary and became a girlfriend Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow). Well, this is a series from Iron Man down to 3 and I don’t think if this is the last one.

I’m very excited for its release (the latest Iron Man) because we did a sort of recap or refreshing, LOL. Before the month this was release, I watched the Iron Man and Iron Man 2. It feels like a continuation though not really.

As we all know, Iron Man also is one of the super hero in the Avengers. Tony stark is a genius billionaire playboy philanthropist without his suit. J

This movie really amazed me. It’s wonderful especially the latest one. Seeing those robots’s suits feels like your flying too. (I’m soo weird, sareee). And the most hilarious part is when all the robots collection of Stark attacks and after the battle thingy all those disappear and splash like fireworks. Wooahh, super duper amazing really is it.

I was like so carried away of the movie. Yes, it’s so obvious but then its really worth it. Watching in 3D is kinda expensive but it’s worth the money. J

You guys should watch it too.

PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE

source

Are you familiar with this book Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren? Well, I’m pretty sure that many know about this book. Since I can’t still afford to buy this, thanks to my officemate and friend Gladys for sharing me the audio version of this. I’m so grateful for. Life, yes when it comes to life I’m so in. I’d love to discuss about life. Isn’t it obvious of my domain name? LOL.

Anyways, yes, I really love to tackle about life since life is as beautiful and meaningful as it is. We may experience ups and downs but it is the color and beauty of life that we made it. If I’ll gonna tackle about my life’s experience maybe a day, week or month won’t be enough. For sure, the same as yours too.

This book is so brilliant, you would know your exact purpose in life is. We, I, us are created in God’s plan. Sometimes we may think that we are accidentally made, but trust me we are not. We are planned on purpose. When I was a child, as for my curiosity, I ask why it is that clouds are named clouds why not water? LOL. And as I grew up I suddenly realize that everything really has its own reason. We maybe don’t understand it for now but one thing is for sure everything will happen in God’s hand.

We have many questions in life, how, what, when, who and other more. I think we don’t have the right to argue or to complain either what are the happenings in our life because first and foremost God created us. We should just be thankful that we have this life and we are capable to enjoy it. Use it for good and for taking the oppurtunities that come.

If I’d finish this audio version I will write a review about this but as of now I’ve currently learned that someday in our hearts we may find our purpose in LIFE. J

“Commit to the Lord whatever you do.”

If you are poor, work.

If you are rich, continue work.

If you are burdened with seemingly unfair responsibilities, work.

If you are happy, keep right on working.

Idleness gives rooms for doubts and fears.

If disappointments come, work.

If sorrow overwhelmed you and loved ones seem not true, work.

When faith falters and reason fails, just work.

When dreams are sheltered and hope seems dead, work as if your life were in peril.

Whatever happens or matter work with faith.

Work is the greatest material remedy available.

Work will care both mental and physical afflictions and your plans will succeed.

Note: I got the copy of this from my college instructor and 'til now I haven't forget this. I'm sharing this to you and maybe this will become a sort of inspiration and encouragement in life.

Happy Anniversary :)

Yes! It’s a year already since I purchase this domain and it’s up for renewal now. Well, it’s a good thing having this site. It’s year 2011 since I’ve started this using free hosted domain thru blogger. And since my friends have also their own domain and I’m tempted and finally decided to buy one. I think it was just 3$ when I originally bought this domain through GoDaddy. And I was terrified when I discovered that I will pay 10$ for renewal. Shocks. Face Palm. OMG, that worth already is very big for me since I am a thrift kind of person. Seesss :P

Anyways moving forward, it’s been already 3 months since I have my latest posts. Well, that shows how busy I am.LOL. Yes, I must admit it and I’m really busy. I don’t think it’s an excuse or I can’t really manage my time so well. Haha. Never mind about my schedule it’s really sort of hectic. Okay let’s proceed. J

One year existence of my blog was really amazing, it’s worth it. And as of now I did renew it already, I’ve realized several things like; updating it daily (maybe weekly will do), posting contents and any other more. And also I am really grateful to have this blog it’s because I met new friends and bloggers, I got the chance to visit their blogs too which is very inspiring due to their posts and topics and most importantly it will help me in my grammar skills and so with writing skills. J

I’m very thankful for those new buddies that I met and also for sharing me their positive thoughts in life. For those uplifting comments. Thanks really and I’m looking forward for more readers and friends soon. J

Life of Pi (A Movie Review)

source

Well, it’s our monthsary of my bf yesterday and he treated me to watch in cinema the movie Life of Pi. First, I already saw the trailer of this and taught that it was just a 3D movie, lol. My friends Sheena and Cha read the book and I haven’t read their review yet. And many fb friends made their status to watch this movie and I did think I should too. J

Anyways, moving forward this movie taught me more lessons in life. First is to keep on believing that there is God no matter what will happen according to the story of course (though he has 3 religions). Despite of his long journey in the Pacific Ocean he kept on reminding himself that “above all, don’t lose hope”.

So the story goes like this, (note: this will be combinations of web explanation and the way I saw it, lol). Stated in wiki Life of Pi is a fantasy adventure novel by Yann Martel published in 2001. The protagonist, Piscine Molitor "Pi" Patel, an Indian boy from Pondicherry, explores issues of spirituality and practicality from an early age. He survives 227 days after a shipwreck while stranded on a boat in the Pacific Ocean with a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker.

Wow, and that was 227 days after he landed the sea in Mexico. Shocks. I can’t even imagine if I am Pi. Lol, good thing he was a swimmer. Haha. Well, this is just a fantasy and let’s not thinks it in real situation, hehe. J

Well since I can’t get enough from it, I hope this summary of mine as I watched it will explain.

Pi, which is his name, came from a long story, Pi sign in math. He was at his teens when this journey happened. This boy is very curious of everything I think and that situation saved him and to still be alive as of the story ends. He was with his family and they have a zoo in Pondicherry and his father wants to sell it and moved to Canada. They sell the zoo and other animals and some of the animals were bring to Canada with them as they travel through ship from their place to Canada, wow.  This means they will pass through a wide sea and it happened that there was a storm through their travel and he was just the only one who survived riding in a lifeboat. L

Oh wait, he was not just the human but his companion along as survivals were the zebra, Bengal tiger, hyena and the orangutan. Little by little since it was hard to survive in the ocean, it was the tiger who survived alive with him as he ducked from the sea. It was so hard thinking that he was lost in the ocean and his whole family died. But through his positivity he made it. And of course God accompanied him.

It was really a great story that reminds us no matter how tough the situation in life, God won’t allow us to fight it alone. He is with us always. Movie you should watch for. :)
