Lazy days

2012-08-05T20:40:00.001-07:00

At dahil nga holiday dito sa Cebu, wala na naman akong magawa kundi ang magbasa ng libro o di kaya ay mag-internet. Mas pinili ko ngayon ang mgabasa ng libro. Sa araw na ito, gusto kong tapusin ang Feast for Crows na libro ng Game Of Thrones series. Hindi na kasi ako makapaghintay sa TV Series. Haha.

Feast for Crows and Coffee

Sino na naman kaya ang mamatay bago matapos ang librong ito? Sana yong hindi ko gusto na character.

As per admitting order, his operation is scheduled at 7am on Wednesday, July 25. To help raise awareness and create more prayer warriors for little Maven, we would like to ask you the following:

1. to encourage everyone to change their profile pic with Maven’s Heart Fund profile pic after you read this until Maven is cleared to go home;

2. to spend a few minutes of your time on July 25, beginning 7am onward, for the successful operation and quick recovery of Maven.
3. to continue sharing this to your friends so that we can bombard heaven’s door for Maven’s recovery..

Sincerely, a mother who is eager to have her son’s heart fixed and go home to the loving and ever supportive family – Hannah

Then we have to pass through this:

It was a muddy endeavor!

Then we have arrived in the 4th Cave.

All in all, it was a rewarding & tiring experience!

Trip Round South

2012-07-09T21:32:00.001-07:00

Last January, the Gang went for a trip to the south of Cebu. First we went to see the Gentle Giants (Whale Sharks, locally known as Butanding or Tuki) in Oslob. Truly, it was humbling experience to be surrounded by such magnificent creatures.

After which, the Gang headed to the Boljoon Church. The Church was built in the 18th century by the Augustinian Friars. It is said to be the oldest remaining stone church in Cebu. It has been declared as a National Historical Landmark by the National Historical Institute in 1999, and declared by the National Museum as a National Cultural Treasure the following year.

After taking photos in Boljoon, the Gang had lunch in Argao, then headed to Obong Spring. The place is easily accessible to tourists & locals alike. It was the perfect way to end a great trip.

Truly, there are still places to be discovered in Cebu. It's More Fun in the Philippines!

Mom's Day

2012-05-14T17:41:00.000-07:00

Last Sunday, we honor our Mothers for their extraordinary work in bringing us into this life, and for every sacrifice, love and effort they've given us (for which we are eternally grateful).

I would like to share on what we gave our Mom for Mother's Day. :)

So to celebrate Mother's Day, me and my siblings decided to give Mom a gift. We got her a Pill Container.

Pill Container

After receiving it, she then thought that my Dad could use it in his trip to Manila (for a seminar). Instead of thinking to use it for herself, she still thinks of our needs before her own (SUPER MOM).

Then she also received a Cupcake Bouquet from my cousin. It looks yummy! :)

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mothers out there! We thank you for everything! ♥♥♥

Adorable One

2011-07-18T23:19:00.000-07:00

Everybody meet TISAY! Tisay has been with my family for 6 years. We treat her as family, actually as a baby sister. She's just so adorable (though sometimes she's a bit hard headed!). Tisay has always been the one to lighten up my mood by cuddling close to me. (Yes, she jumps up in the sofa/bed just so she can lie next to me, or anyone else in the family.)

Whenever me and my siblings are bored, we like to dress her up, make her wear stuffs, etc. In short, we turn to her for boredom. Example is the picture above, where we make her lie on the bed beside Spongebob for a photo op. It's really hard to capture her looking at the camera coz she shies away from it. At other times, we made her wear glasses and placed a clip on her, photo below (Isn't she the cutest?). There was one time we made her wear my brother's sash for Boy Scout, too bad I can't seem to find the photo.

P.S.Tisay is a Spitz Poodle, her dad Pablo is a Japanese Spitz while her mom Paula is a Poodle. (Pablo and Paula are uber cute. They are owned by my Tita.)

Moalboal, Cebu

2011-07-15T00:19:00.003-07:00

Here are some photos of Moalboal, Cebu (from a previous blog entry). Photos courtesy of yours truly.

A Paradise

2011-07-14T21:44:00.000-07:00

It's been too long since I've visited Moalboal, Cebu. Moalboal is a town in the southern part of Cebu. To reach there, one can take a V-hire in Citilink Terminal, or one can take a bus via Barili from Cebu South Bus Terminal. The V-hire would cost one Php100, while taking the bus would cost about Php100+ (I'm not quite sure about the exact price).

Tourists and residents alike can enjoy the clear waters. But the main attraction in this town is that this is a world-class destination for divers. One can have diving lessons, there are tons of dive shops in the area where tourists can go to.

There's no denying that Moalboal is a paradise. I long for the time that me and my friends will be back in this town.
