To the man of few words but of great wisdom… my Papush! Your actions have always spoken louder than words and have always been an inspiration to us. I may not often talk about the things I feel inside. The way that I look up to you with so much love and pride. But you’re the kind of father who’s special as can be. And I hope you always understand how much you mean to me. Happy Father’s day Papa! We love you!

Can one person really make a difference?

An old man was walking along the beach, when he came upon a part of the sand where thousands of starfish had washed ashore. A little further down the beach he saw a young woman, who was picking up the starfish one at a time and tossing them back into the ocean. “Oh you silly girl,” he exclaimed. “You can’t possibly save all of these starfish. There’s too many.” The woman smiled and said, “I know. But I can save this one, ” and she tossed another into the ocean, “and this one”, toss, “and this one…”

Everytime I visit MIL, di nauubusan yan kwento. Nakwento niya yung last vacation niya sa California. Kasama niya sister niya nun at sa pamangkin niya sila tumuloy. Nalibot daw nila ang California through rentals ng used car San Diego. Enjoy na enjoy niyang na kwento yung mga pinasyalan nila pati sa Las Vegas. Hinalungkat din niya mga pics nila noon, interesting ang mga kwento niya at nag enjoy din ako sa panonood ng mga pics. Dun sa tinirhan daw nila ay napakainit at may sarili pa silang sprinkles para labanan ang init. Ang mga bahay daw dun ay puro bungalows dahil ang lugar daw ay sakop ng faults. Sabi niya baka yun na daw ang last vacation niya na malayo kasi di na niya kaya magbiyahe ng matagal. Ako din nababagot na sa mga malayong biyahe. Sana malapit lang uuwian ko, kelan kaya ulit ako uuwi? Mag isang taon na pala mula ng aking huling bakasyon. Masarap umuwi at makapiling ang mahal sa buhay kahit panandaliaan lamang. Di alintana ang mga pagod at balakid sa pagbiyahe. Na stranded pa nga ako nun dahil sa bagyo akala ko matutulog kami sa airport buti na lang nakapag checked in kami sagot ng airline sa hotel. Sana by next year makauwi na naman ako miss ko na ang taho at balot!

Fridays are a blast here because at exactly 3pm all are set to leave their work and ready to pack up for a weekend holiday. Shops during Fridays and Saturdays are also open with longer times until 10 pm compared to the usual time 8pm. I am in hurry preparing to do my shopping spree including groceries and a visit to an oriental shop at the mall, when the phone rang it was SIL. She asked me if I can drop by at her place because she has some useful items for me. And so I proceded first at SIL. Not knowing what are the things she wanted to gave me, I was amazed and delighted when she handed me down some of her things that she doesn’t used it anymore. She just sort out her cabinets and found her designer clothing which she just wear I think a few times because the clothings were still new. What a lucky day for me, I dont need anymore to shop some summer clothes I’ve got already. And one thing more I only buy branded one when they are at sale or 70% cut off. I still went on shopping for some groceries because when I will do it tomorrow the mall will be full packed. All shops are close here every sunday only restaurants were opened including gasoline stations with their conveniennt store but the price is doubled compared to thhe usual shop. At the mall I immediately went in a perfumery shop to buy a gift for bro in law’s birthday but sad to say I wasn’t able to picked one instead I decided to give him a gift certificate. While waiting at the counter as they were wrapping the gift , I saw winnie pooh in the children’s sections. I took a shot and then a lot of shoppers did the same too. Hahaha… Then I bought some coconut juice at the oriental shop for my buko pandan and I hurriedly went home to prepared it.
