Dream Vacation in Palawan

2010-04-30T19:18:00.000-07:00

It would be a dream vacation. An invitation to a paradise island of white sand, clear waters and the-not-so-overcrowded place of leisure. It’s only a boat ride away from Palawan metro.

Probably a two-hour travel by boat from island to island. If you’re lucky, you’ll be seeing dolphins below waters and doves above the sky. The water is cold and lucid from any eyes’ perspective. It is a Philippines' beach and it is the pride of the islands.

I’ll be carrying a little baggage as I do not want to get tired and missed swimming the beach! We’ll be trekking our way up hill for some site seeing and adventure.

This will happen in a few days time. I’ll be backpacking all things that I needed on my Palawan getaway. Here is my check list:

Cash: I’ll be needing lots of cash for this trip as I may not know if I’ll get too enjoyed and I might stay for a little while.

Tent: For some purposes of sleeping outside the rent house.

Mat: For sunbathing.

Blanket: Just to be sure.

Pillow: A must.

Hammock: For relaxation.

Clothes: Lots of clothes, it will be swimming. I do not want to have a shortage of these.

Goggles/Snorkel gear: For swimming and siteseeing below waters.

Camera/Camera accessories: Also a must. Need I speak why?

MP3 player/Earphones/Portable speakers: For soundtripping while traveling and while on the leisure area.

Ziplock bag: For protection of valuables.

Toiletries: A must also.

Portable lamp/Candles: When lights are stolen away from me!

Portable gas range/Butane: For cooking and whatnots!

That’s it but before I forgot, this is a contest and the sponsors are: Monz Avenue, I Am Gab, Mon de Nero, Dan The Gardener, Kelvinonian, Blasting Mind, Ark Hilario, Facebook Tags.

Yabang Pinoy

2009-12-28T18:31:00.000-08:00

“Yabang Pinoy” is a campaign to raise awareness and heighten Filipino people’s ethos, dignity and pride by advocating the use of a piece of braided abaca band that aims to make a statement. The abaca band aims to signify a Filipino being truly proud to be one.

The band will use the natural fiber abaca. Abaca belongs to the family of Musacea which is indigenous to the Philippines. It is important to note that the Philippines is the largest source of abaca fiber. Abaca is commonly known as the Manila hemp worldwide. It is also considered as the strongest natural fiber. Abaca used to be one of our top exports together with sugar and tobacco.

Since abaca is the strongest natural fiber and unique to the Philippines, it aims to constantly remind Filipinos that we are tough, resilient and exceptional.

How To Stay Young

2009-10-21T23:43:00.000-07:00

How To Stay Young

1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay them.

2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down. (Keep this In mind if you are one of those grouches;)

3. Keep learning: Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain get idle. "An idle mind is the devil's workshop." And the devil's name is Alzheimer's!

4. Enjoy the simple things

5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath. And if you have a friend who makes you laugh, spend lots and Lots of time with HIM/HER.

6. The tears happen: Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourself. LIVE while you are alive.

7. Surround yourself with what you love: Whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.

8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.

9. Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county, to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.

10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.

Hotmail

Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard tossed a coin to decide whether the company they founded would be called Hewlett-Packard or Packard-Hewlett.
