We held our youth camp at Gawahon Eco-Park in Victorias City, Negros Occidental, Philippines. The place is pretty, because it is located high up in them mountains, about 2 hours from Bacolod City.
However, the problem was, it was not conducive for a big party of 70 such as ours. Sure, it could accommodate that many [...]
I signed up for Associated Content only this year. I appreciate the fact that I could opt for non-exclusivity of my articles published there. There was one glitch. They still had not devised a way to pay international members.
But I persisted. From time to time, I would post articles. I didn’t campaign for them. I [...]
My hubby showed me this video. Kinda old, but never fails to amuse. It is dubbed as “The funniest 6 minutes you will ever see!” He missed She-Bop and Telephone though. And he didn’t want to dance the Macarena. lol Anyway, just see for yourself.
My other blog, Flowers by the Wayside, has a new look. I have a new header, which I personally designed. And from now on, my posts will each have a photo of a flower, which I did just now. I have personally taken the photos.
Flowersbythewayside is a collection of lessons that the author has [...]
With the rice crisis in the Philippines (or it is what the government wants the people to believe) the government has devised a way to distribute low quality and lower priced NFA rice to people who total family income is below P5,000 a month.
It is called the Family Access Card. This will ensure people will [...]
Our country, the Philippines, may be considered poor in world standards, but essentially a lot of people have work, depending on their educational status and perseverance.
Nevertheless, people keep on complaining about being poor, etc. etc. No matter how wages increased, people would keep on complaining about the rising prices of everything.
But here are my observations:
1. [...]
Victoria’s Secret products are a favorite bring home gifts among kababayans from America. And people back in the Philippines loved receiving them.
Although the more expensive tastes frown on these rather cheap gifts (when converted it is already expensive for the peso), I love them.
I love receiving them, whether in the form of lotion, cologne, perfume, [...]
Fifteen-year-old Filipina singer wow them all at her guesting at Oprah’s talk show, with her powerful rendition of “I Have Nothing”, originally sung by belter Whitney Houston.
Wow, Charice never ceases to amaze people. And she is a home-grown talent, not another Fil-Am who made it big in America. It may be remembered that her [...]
When my hubby thought of starting a decals business with his family, I asked, “What’s that?” I never did understand what it was and what it was for.
Anyway, it turned out that they will cut out vinyl and reflectorized stickers using a machine cutter. All designs are fed through the computer, hence the precision of [...]
I love this Bibbo commercial. Even the puppets would like to try the hotdogs. That is last line uttered by the puppet. “Sana makakain din tayo.” or translater, “I hope we can also eat that.”
Love this one!
It is a Monday today and we have got a rainy weather. I went to the bank early today in order to pay for my bill with HSBC. Going back, I fell into a mud puddle and dirtied my feet.
But despite that, a rainy day is a welcome relief from the heat. We live in [...]
I think it has been 2 years already since Havaianas, the flip flops, from Brazil, have taken the Philippines by storm. Those colorful flip flops have been flooding the ground with those funky and cute designs. Any girl would love to have a pair of these.
But at the very least, a pair costs P800. They [...]
