A Letter by President Marcos: On Aquino

It was written on March 21, 1986 after his ousting as President of the Republic of the Philippines . He was referring to Mrs. Aquino then. Also, a newspaper in the United States published  some of the statements of the late president. The documents I took pictures of are the actual handwritten documents of President Ferdinand E. Marcos. Here they are, together with the transcript: The transcript of the letter is below in case you … Continue reading A Letter by President Marcos: On Aquino

Batac and Paoay: Places to Visit

I had fun really the previous day since I already did what were supposed to be done on that day. I woke up very early today at my hotel and readied for the things to be finished, if there were. I sent a text message to my boss if there were still things to be done. He just told me to send the report. Nothing more. My friend here in Laoag told me that  he would be fetching me from my hotel along P. Paterno street. Our first stop: BATAC CITY. My friend is from this place and he knows … Continue reading Batac and Paoay: Places to Visit

Isang Araw Lang at PICC, Pasay City

It was an opportunity  last night to have seen the ISANG ARAW LANG The Movie, a digital film directed by no other than Mr. Public Service himself, Kuya Daniel Razon through Breakthrough and Milestones Productions International Incorporated, the media entity that holds and manages the Public Service Channel, UNTV 37.

Pasyal with Rommel

I was supposed to accompany Meng (or Rommel), a co-boardmate in one of the boarding houses in Bangkal, Makati City, to Pier 2 (Zaragoza Gate) since he was supposed to be designated as one of the programmers (C#.Net) for one  shipping lines in the north harbor area. Luckily, his new assignment was canceled and thus he was retained to his main office in Legazpi Village, Makati City. Since we were supposed to go to the City of Manila I persuaded him to go with me strolling in Makati Central Business District. This was also an idea for me to show … Continue reading Pasyal with Rommel

Makati Central Business District Map

I monitor my blog stat almost every hour of every day to see how many are visiting my site with different search strings or texts that somehow gears Internet users towards my site. While reviewing these search strings or texts, I found out that not a few surfers use the terms “Makati,” “Makati City,” “Makati City Map,” “Makati Map,” “Makati Central Business District,” and “Makati CBD.” So I decided to put a map of the country’s business capital, for those who want to know the major streets and landmarks of this central business district in Makati.

What a day this day

Whew. I woke up very early today for work, then it rained hard – very hard – that it was difficult to find a jeepney to take me to Paseo de Roxas along Pasay Road (Arnaiz). I tried to get a taxi cab, but then all of them weren’t vacant. So, you know what I did? I walked  my way to office from Barangay Bangkal near South Super Highway (Sergio Osmena Highway), crossing the super highway to Estacion street. Then from Estacion Street, I walked near-mile to Pasay Road (Arnaiz). Then from there, I walked until I reached Makati Square … Continue reading What a day this day

Ayala Avenue, Sunday

I decided to stroll around Recto stores and Quiapo sidewalk stalls today to buy things that might be useful for my day-to-day needs. I spent about 3 hours walking, buying  and choosing the best things to be bought. After having spent some time, I did able to buy these necessary things. Then I rode my way to Gil Puyat via the Light Railway Transit (LRT) from Carriedo Station (Sta.

From Ayala Avenue, I took some shots of … Continue reading Ayala Avenue, Sunday

Girly: Before, While and After Eating

These were taken last year December 2008 when my sisters came with me in Manila to attend the International Thanksgiving of the whole Congregation we are part of. After having attended the International Thanksgiving, I strolled them around in some Metro Manila places and Trinoma in Quezon City was one of the malls we’ve visited. I decided to take them to Tokyo-Tokyo, a Japanese restaurant which has branches almost in all major malls in Metro Manila. I was playing around with Ella’s mobile phone, for it has a camera.

While Sitting at a Park

After having gone from the 25th floor of the new Citibank tower along Paseo de Roxas in Makati City, I walked my way to a park in Makati Central Business District near Union Church along Legazpi Street, passing through several underground passageways in Paseo de Roxas and Ayala Avenue. I got tired and so, I sat for a while in the park where joggers do their thing at the park for their regular exercise.

A Stroll at Old Manila

I was strolling along P. Burgos in Manila from the Bureau of Immigration yesterday and the day after yesterday. My usual routine is to walk from the Bureau of Immigration in Intramuros Manila to the Central Terminal of the Light Railway Transit (LRT) Station. This usual routine lets me walk by the Philippine Postal Office (PhilPost). I decided to take a shot of it from afar, from its fronting plaza with fountain. The place where I usually eat somewhat is near to the Palacio del Gobernador and the Manila Cathedral. After having eaten one day, I decided to have a … Continue reading A Stroll at Old Manila

Learning Digital Photography

Since I bought a new digital camera, I have been reading anything about photography, especially ISO numbers, modes and lighting. I actually love taking pictures, and having read so much articles about ‘beginning photography,’ I learned that having to have a digital camera is not enough to take breath taking photos.  Some of us might just be shooting at a desired subject without considering the ISO to be used, the existence of a flash and the angle of the shot to name a few. Before, I was thinking that a great photo is taken when using ONLY a good digital … Continue reading Learning Digital Photography

My Books

These are some of the books I have here in Manila. Well, I really don’t have my own shelf where to place all these books which I bought here in the Metro, so I arranged them on my bed. Yeah, that’s true! I placed my books on my bed. They are actually with me whenever I go to sleep, rest or just in the feeling of reading them. Most of the books are computer programmin-related ones which I bought from different stalls, well of course those stalls that sell cheap but of good quality. Aside from computer programming-related books, I … Continue reading My Books

Painter of the Wind

(Image courtesy of DramaWiki) I was researching about Korean and Japanese dramas over the web when I came across with The Painter of the Wind which was starred by Moon Geun-Young (Mun Geun Yeong) and Park Shin Yang. So far, I have only watched 2 out of 20 episodes. Each episode runs one hour approximately.  Moon here was disguised as a young man, a student in the Department of Paintings (or some sort). The Department’s duty is to paint the major events of the country and the royal family. I still have to watch all episodes that I may come … Continue reading Painter of the Wind

These Babies Make Me Laugh

This day, I was randomnly searching for something in Youtube that would make me laugh. I thought of finding babies that laugh so hard and so I did find some. The babies were soooooo cute upon seeing them. Hahahaha. These babies really made my day. I was also laughing when watching them. I like babies a lot, no matter where they came from. To such belong the Kingdom of God, as what is written in Mathew 19:14 – “But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” … Continue reading These Babies Make Me Laugh

My Old Shoes

Well, I was actually hesitant to wear my leather shoes this day for office. I really had a bad feeling that one of this pair shall be ruined anytime of the day while walking. Well, while I was walking Pearl Drive in Ortigas, the heel of my right leather shoes was torn off! I was a bit shy to actually turn my back and see who else had seen the situation. Luckily (I think) I felt there were none who were there to witness the spectacular sight  (I hope). While going into the building from West Tower of Tektite (Philippine Stock … Continue reading My Old Shoes

Jumbled Mind

Well. For months now, I have not really noticed that I have been acting so strangely. It is as if I have not been myself all the time. My mind has always been filled with thoughts of happiness and images of joy – in other words, I have been feeling puculiarly happy. Never have I noticed that until now. I have been feeling this since having seen images that makes me happy. I have been feeling this since I came to know one entity that makes me happy everytime I gaze upon it. And I always have this dream, that … Continue reading Jumbled Mind

Disappointment. Discouragement – A Strange Me.

As I was standing this morning in the train, I looked at my unclear reflection of myself on the glass window. I looked haggard,down, and somewhat out of my mind: a situation I have not had been into for several months. It is this peculiar feeling that keeps on following me ever since. A feeling wherein when you are very very much happy in a certain situation, will be replaced by this feeling afterward. I had not been into walking like crazy again in the streets of Metro, staring on a far away location without actually staring a thing. Temporarily, … Continue reading Disappointment. Discouragement – A Strange Me.

Talking about feelings (again)

Oftentimes, I have been thinking that some things are already forgotten, things have already been left, things have already been ignored, and things have already been erased from the neurons that are found inside my brains. However, when a simple event is raised from an action that is being listened from an unexpected trigger, everything comes back to what they were. Everything was as if never forgotten, never erased – simply saying, these things never have really left me, nor have disappeared from me. For many a month now, I have been very busy with work, I have been very … Continue reading Talking about feelings (again)

Ocean Park Tour with My Mom

I took my mom to Ocean Park in Manila last September 28, 2008, a Sunday, for a tour in the said Park. There, we were able to see big fishes and marine animals that are rarely seen in common aquariums. You could be able to find one fish as big as you, or a crab that could take the size of your television set. As you move into the aquariums (you somehow are in a tunnel with big water container or aquariums around you), you will be shown with different species of marine animals found in some parts of the … Continue reading Ocean Park Tour with My Mom

A “Pasyal” with My Mother

My mother arrived here in Manila last September 23, 2008, a rainy Tuesday at around 4:30 in the afternoon. We met on the next day at Camp Emilio Aguinaldo along EDSA in Quezon City.

Together with the sister of my grandmother who already is living here in Manila since the 60s (I think), my aunt and his daughter who was accompanied by my mother here to help them with their papers for pensions, we headed straight ahead to SM Megamall. … Continue reading A “Pasyal” with My Mother

Regrets

There are many things I regret to have done in the past. Things that seemed quite right. Things what would somehow lead to a brighter side of life. Sometimes, you thought of giving your life for what you believed in. You thought of draining yourself of energy that gives life to you. Risks had already taken. Not just ordinary risks in life. But then, when you try to ponder on these things and these quite did not run as you expected them, you try to think over again if you have done the right thing since. You have been optimistic … Continue reading Regrets

IYC 2008

The International Youth Convention is one of the most exciting activities in the life of a youth in the Church of God International which is currently presided by no less than the most controversial preacher, Bro. Eliseo F. Soriano. In this 2-day gathering, the youth are soaked to various games and mind-boggling activities that bond the youth of the brethren in the whole Church.
