Travel Time
Just got back from a week long vacation, DEC 10-16. I finally visited Banaue & Sagada. I always want to spend my birthday (dec. 14) somewhere. It's like an adventure together with ME and only ME. he he he... ANyways, I spent 2 days in Banaue. Went trekking in Batad Village to see the majestic Rice Terraces and also went swimming in Tappiya Falls. Next stop is Sagada MT. Province and spent 3 days there. Most memorable experience was the cave connection. It was a great spelunking! ALso seeing the hanging coffins is a big bonus. I also met a lot of new friends and fellow travellers from around the globe. Be back in SAgada by March and hopefully i'll have enough time to visit other sceneries. If I have estra time, I'll post the photos during my little adventure. Kudos to Miranda, Oscar, Daisy, Faye, Kris and the rest of the family! Thanks!

SONAToday the president had her annual SONA in Batasan. As a citizen of this country I'm quite convince on the president's statement. I'm happy on the progress that had happen in the Philippines. A majority on the promises made last year's SONA was fulfilled. Plans of making the Philippines a third country no more is music to my ears. Plans are good, even better if its back-up by actions which what is happening. A lot of projects are being started and some are even done, these includes bridges, agriculture, power supply, tourism, highways, airports, new investments and other aspects like security, terrorism, and corruption.
I love the statement that Pres. GMA said " I would rather be right than popular. Popularity doesn't count as much as doing the right things and making decision that would benefit the whole country and help the progress toward a better government, a better nation.
As what Pres. GMA declared: "The State of the Nation is STRONG!"

Crazy! Just this morning around 5:45am I was on my way to work. I passed the 7-eleven (Quezon Ave Branch), whic I usually do.
But nothing is usual today, while I was approaching 7-eleven a crazy woman in black dress with her ass exposed is talking to herself while walking back and forth.
Suddenly she's looking at my way and all of a sudden "whaaalllaahhh", she's going to the pile of 4x4 wood and getting one. Guess what happened next, she run towards me
attempting to heat throw that piece of wood and what did I do? Of course, I ran as fast, as mobile as I could. I'm running together with other 2 guys which obviously run faster that I do.
Cause she actually did hit me with the damn fucking wood, i'm still lucky it was only on the back of my shoes. I really dunno why she's running after me, maybe because I'm wearing a red shirt.
I really dunno.... Whatever the reason it doesn't matter anyways. In the duration of 2-4 minutes of my encounter, I think I'm on the Olympic Track running my asses off and saving my God damn forsaken life.
This day is whack!

frathernity-sority club solely in UP Los Banos. It is made up of of
Illongo students in UP Los Banos from different parts of the country.
It was founded in 1957 starting with 7 members and grown to more than hundreds.
Im not a member of the Club but my Uncle, we just tag along with some of my cousins.
And we didn't regret that we indeed go. UP Los Banos was a big, greeny, peaceful place.
Away from the city with old trees aged more than a 100 years. We did say hi to
Maria Makiling ans she is a beautiful site, right above the mountains facing the sky.
The reunion was a picture of deep friendship, family that inspite the years has gone by you
can still see in their eyes, in their actions that they are still one. "Isa para sa lahat!"
As what they always point out. The club ensure that the eat all you and drink all you can is imply.
Litsong baboy is everywhere, Litsong baka, sea foods and other menus thats too many to mention.
Not to forget the forever present SMB and SML. To close this all, may San Miguel guide us all.
Go Labay! Prims!

Sports News: On
Football, David Beckham will be playing for the LA Galaxy starting
August 2007. It was said that he signed a 5 year contract deal worth
$250 Million, biggest in all sport history. Beckham transfer from
Real Madrid, his 4th season, to LA due to his less playing time. He
was more on the bench this past seasons. He said that he's going to
LA not for the cash but for the possibility of helping football in
the US get to another level and strengthening LA Galaxy. Beckham is
very much a super star, he has became a brand since that day he played
professional football as a teenager which escalated when he marries
former Spice Girl Victoria "Posh" Beckham. He played in
Spain, England (Captain 2000-June 2006), and Madrid. The transition
has been the talk today, it maybe money matters or career move as
what everybody has been speculating. I think its a good move for him.
He's not needed in Real Madrid, he was more on the bench than on the
field, so better yet find another team where he can use his skills
and contribute to a future championship. The $250M deal was just a
bonus, he can even earn more on other teams in Europe. Good luck to
you man! Play hard! Hollywood is the right place for you...
