Manny Pacquiao

Congratulations Manny!! I am proud of you for our country. Kahit papano nagbibigay ka nang karangalan para sa ating bansa. Dahil sa iyo, kahit sa isang araw, sumikat ang Pilipinas sa BUOOOOOONG MUNDO! Siguro kung nan duon lang ako sa ibang bansa, isa ako sa NANGBEBELAAAT... sa mga hindi kalahi na nangmamaliit at nangungutya sa mga Pilipino. Salamat sa Diyos at isa kang Pilipino Manny.

Hehehe ! Ilan milyones na dolyar naman ang kinita mo Manny? Kung bilyonaryo man ngayon si Manny ay sana huwag siyang papailalim sa pera. at hwag din syang paluluko sa mga swindler. Hwag sanang magpapagamit sa mga politiko at tumulong na lang sa mga kababayan na nakalamidad. Mabuhay ka Manny! God bless!

BLOGGING

I am so happy that I able to post the tag offered to me by Vicy. I did it alone by myself. Thank you Vicy!. Actually, several tags offered to me already but I was not able to post it. I just ignored them pretending that I have not read their message to tag me. Honestly , I don't know how. Viewing the tag from other blog, it seems to me that it is complicated and very very hard to do it. I feel confused and I was wishing that no one will ever to tag me. My kids tried to teach me several times until they are feed up because they were expecting me to pick-up at once. My first tag posted, was my son who posted it for me to learn. I got even a word from them. "Ang dali- dali yan mama, ba't di mo pa mapick-up agad." I get offended really. It seems that I am already the daughter and they are my parents. If I recall back when they were nursery, prep and elementary, I was their tutor at home for their assignments, projects and reviews for their examinations, but because I was all alone busy for household chores and my sari-sari store which was quite busy that time, so I tend to get angry and shout sometimes if they could not pick up the lesson. My blood pressure shot up and tell them " Ang dali- dali naman yan, hindi mo pa maintindihan ...! yan....! ganyan...! isulat mo...! basahin mo....!. That was usually my dialogue to them before. I don't think, that it is now a "karma" to me, because it resulted academically good for them.
Now I know already how to post a tag. My friends are all now welcome. You can tag me now as much as you want. I really enjoy blogging now . I really thanks those bloggers who 's very patient visiting, viewing and commenting my site . You know who you are. Thank you thank you talaga. Marami kayo . di ko na i-mention baka may makalimutan pa ako. Basta kayong lahat. Blogging to me now, livens up my life again! I am still stored in my house with my daily routines but I feel that I am personally exposed again to the world. Long time back, I was adventurous. Curious to everything and crazily reached with all my best and might until I can.

LIVE LONGER

I have read from one corner of a small magazine says, " if men are bored they should have to pick up the broom and sweep around in any place in the house or where he's comfortable . This might just live him longer." That's the word from recent Victoria University, Australia, study that analyzed the leisure time 200 men of all ages. While women tend to busy themselves with domestic chores in their downtime. If men are bored during their free time indulges themselves in meaningless activities such as watching tv or computer games, which in turn could lead to an increase in health risk such as obesity and diabetes, due to comfort eating , smoking and drinking.
Well, my personal opinion, if you... men, agree of this research, you are not the only who will live long but also your partner in life or other members of the family who is responsible in cleaning the house . In this way, you're helping them from their daily hectic schedule in the house. One thing, to have a good relationship among the members in the house when everyone is helping one another. If the house is clean and neat, you feel good and sounds good. No stress so, you will live long.

MAHOGANY

five months old mahogany

Summer time is over. It's already mid of June. I'm badly. waiting for a rain. A rain that can watered those thirsty plants and trees in the northern part of Luzon. Yes typhoon Cosme was a strong typhoon that devastated some province of the northern of Luzon. Luckily in our town was fortunately not. It was just a rain shower that not even enough to water my plants in my hometown. I planted mahogany trees more than 600 last June 2006, it's now two years old. During the first one and half years, I visited them every two months to water them and every 6 months I fertilized with complete fertilizer. My father was a farmer before but usually plant rice, tobacco and other vegetable so I didn't saw him planting trees especially mahogany. Now he is already in heaven with my mother so I have no one to guide me. I thank The Department of Forestry Quezon City, patiently gave me the informations of how to plant and how to care of mahogany tree in just through telephone call. I used to call them and became makulit but it was fine for them although they don't know me personally.
I did not visit anymore this summer because I'm expecting that since already nearly two years old it can wait for a rain this month of May. The last time I visited was one & half years old and two times higher than me already and looks healthy. But this is my problem now , already mid of June but still no rain. My relatives there told me through text that it is very hot like summer. Hoping my mahogany tree will not be affected. Its' not possible to go these time because my kids can't come with me , because classes started already. I used to bring my kids with me every time I'll do something to develop for the piece of agricultural land given by my parents. My kids were born here in Metro Manila and they don't show me an interest about this small land inspite of encouraging them because they will surely need this when they have already a family. I myself work for the planting and cultivating with two hired men. I hired only two because I was expecting them to help but instead they were just under the shade texting and texting. I wanted to scold them but I think it won't absorbed, it's useless . I was the same like them before. When I was newly married I planned already to plant trees beside the rice fields , there is a space for mahogany because just beside along the sapa . According to agricultural books that I had read, mahogany could be benefited after 10-15 years. At maganda daw magtanim sa tabi ng sapa dahil gusto ng tree ang malamig na place. I just only planned and not seriously did it . It is only 2006 and my kids were 15 & 16 years old when I pursue this long term plan. Now they are 17 & 18 years old and my mahogany now is only 2 years old. So many years wasted. If only I carried out the plan right away , maybe this time I'm benefiting now.
I'm just only hoping that it will always rain. At least on and off slightly heavy rain. Mahogany loves water for the first five years.

TWO CUPS OF COFFEE

It's already twelve midnight but still I can't get a good sleep. My time then just only wasted in my bed of forcing myself to sleep but all in vain. I'm wondering what's happening in me. I don't feel that I am depress or something that bothering me to disturb my sleeping habit. Ohh... maybe that two cups of coffee . I drank one cup in the afternoon when the rain poured slightly heavy. I love drinking coffee when it rains or if the weather is cold.

After dinner, I took again another cup of coffee because I feel nauseated due to this fatty adobo we had for dinner.

I'm sure, the two cups of coffee that I consumed the same day made me irritable and unable to sleep.

They Prayed before they start to Work

I went to Banko de Oro this morning and arrived there 15 minutes before their usual opening 9:00 am. I'm the 2nd client who arrived before the opening.While waiting for the guard to open the entrance door, I stood up near the door and the door is out of glass, so it is very visible inside the bank. I could see the staff one by one in a hurry fixing themselves. Exactly 7 minutes before opening, the guards secured the door and in a hurry get inside the bank. I noticed all the tellers and other bank staff including the janitors and guards grouped together and bowed their heads. Ohhh... they were praying. I am really touched staring at them, concentratedly praying.
Many things came to my mind, When I'm looking at them while praying:
Filipinos are really prayerful.
They need to pray because of rampant bank robbery.
I got envy at them because when I was working for so many years I never experienced, praying together with my co- employee before we start the job. I only prayed by myself alone. I'm very sure ganon din yung mga katrabaho ko noon, pray din sila ng sarili nila.
After staring at them with a touchy heart, nag-pray na rin ako.

****GOD really love us inspite of this ruining world, HE is always there carrying us because we don't forget HIM. We always pray to Him and believes in Him."

Typical Hair Salon

I have no choice to go in this beauty parlor which I had for my hair coloring 3 months ago. It's just three blocks away from my house. It's just only five minutes to walk . It's a typical parlor , a little bit small and can only serve only two customer at a time. Two gays are there , and only hair cut ,hair rebonding, hair color is their specialty.
Three monts ago , I had my hair cut and hair color in this parlor, It was the gay named Ara who made it. My hair trim was nice but he colored my hair with black which supposedly dark brown. I hate black because it looks not natural, I look like that I have that black haired piluka put on my head. But I have no more time to choose a better parlor, as what they call it classy that they could make my hair beautiful and color my hair what I wanted to. My hair needs to be trim already because we'll go to church the following day,and to shop for a bag in SM. I just went back then and requested the other guy named Sandra to do my hair trim but i'ts already late evening, Sandra can't make it anymore . Only Ara is available but I'm reluctant to her. I'ts no more choice,but I told her frankly of what he did the wrong color last time, and promise to dye it with dark brown and not black. After one and half hour, trim and hair dye finished and I thank her because she made it well which I do not expected. I'm glad she did her best to
regain my confidence especially to their salon. I'll be back again there, it's not only because near to our house but very cheap. Only P200.00 - hair cut and hair dye.

Princess Of Wales

Yes. Princess Diana- the only princess that I admire so much. She's the only princess that the world will never forget. I idolize her so much. She's the Princess of Wales. After Diana's marriage with prince Charles she was called "The Queen of Humanity". She was the real royal star, and one of the most fascinating woman of her time. Even the crisis and her marriage life and the following separation didn't change the public's sympathy to DIANA.

PANCIT LOMI GUISADO

My son has no church band rehearsal today , so he stayed in the house the whole day. I think he feel bored and hungry. he's going to kitchen back and forth opening the refregerator but unfortunately only left over adobo was there. He then requested me to cook Pancit Lomi Guisado. That was his favorite when he took his vacation in Batangas (my husband's hometown).
He wanted that i'll cook exactly the same taste as in Batangeño pancit lomi ..
Anyhow, I did it. This is a Pinoy recipe, so it's all the same.




Pancit Lomi Guisado Ingredients:

• 2 tbsp cooking oil
• 1/2 cup carrots thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup thinly sliced Baguio beans
• 2 cups cabbage shredded
• any flavor mix
• 1/4 cup chopped celery
• 1 cup water
• 250 grams lomi noodles blanched
• 2 whole eggs beaten

Pancit Lomi Guisado Cooking Instructions:

1. Heat oil, sauté carrots and baguio beans for 3 minutes.
2. Add cabbage and cook for another 2 minutes.
3. Stir in any seasoning mix and celery. Pour in water and simmer for 3 minutes.
4. Toss in lomi and beaten eggs, mix to coat lomi with the sauce and eggs and cook for 5 minutes more.
5. Serve hot.

Apple

A friend of mine is confined in the hospital because she had an spontaneous abortion. So sad ,it's her first pregnancy and she's so anxious to have a baby. We're already friends when we're still in college. We stayed the same dormitory. We both love apple at that time. Every time we go out from dormitory, we buy apples for us to eat while chatting when nothing to review.
I'm going to visit her and I passed by at the fruit stand to buy some pasalubong. I prefer to buy apples for her because it reminds us our friendship in the dormitory, and memorable that we can't forget during our college days.
But recently, I bought an apple in one supermarket, looks big, fresh and color is very attractive to eat. Kaya lang po, nong hiwain ko for my kids ay sirang sira pala ang loob ng apple and it's not good to eat. So, i just bought oranges and bananas instead of apples.

Phil.Star: Jose d Venecia not talking for now on ZTE

Rep. Jose de Venecia Jr. has opted " not to speak out yet" over the scandal surrounding the government's $329-millionnational broadband network deal, citing health reasons and concerns for his storm-wrecked congressional district.
May sakit daw po siya. Ano po kaya ang kinalaman non? Maatake kaya sa puso pag nagsabi ng tutuo?
Dinaanan ng bagyo ang Pangasinan at maraming bahay ang nasira at worth millions of crops destroyed at yan daw ang pagtuonan nyang gawin. Naku po ! last month lang ang bagyo na yan,
e last year pa yung issue at nagkakagulo na ang Pilipinas, bakit di pa nya sinabi ang mga nalalaman nya para din masuportahan nya ang anak nyang si Joey.
Well.. nagpromise naman siya na sasabihin nya ang lahat na nalalaman niya " most probably by August" daw. Ang tagal naman. Buhay pa kaya siya by that time?

SUNDAY AGAIN!

It's Sunday today. When my kids was young, we go to church together at the same time. Whether they like it or not I can forced them to wake up early and go to church together.
The church where we are attending has 8-9 am , 10-12noon and 6-8pm service. We are protestant christian, so we call it service as mass for roman catholics .They are teeners now and can manage to go to church without me, so they choose their own time, inspite of my encouragement that we must attend service at the same time.
My daughter is still sleeping, she wants evening bec. less attender and feel comfortable. My son gone already for early morning service because he is obliged to do so, as member of the church band. I'm planning to attend this 1o:00 am to finished first my routine in our house. And my daughter might changed her mind and we will go together.
I really miss the days when they still very young, We go to church together, sit together and eat somewhere after. I have lots of fears now but I tried to just entrust it all to the LORD.
