Weekend in New England!


Boston is a place with so much character. You can tell by its old historical architecture and diverse people around. A pleasant place to go, the nearby neighborhoods that offers different ambiance and picturesque place that every tourist will enjoy. The historical places, the several firsts, like the Boston Library that I ended up staying for hours ...it's just staying in an ambiance of hotel...:) the first public school and the college (Harvard College). I've enjoyed also the artsy, hip and fab people around! I can say that it's because of the many colleges and universities within the city and surrounding area, that makes it always lively and busy.

But, of course I won't forget my first ride to the "T" (Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA)in which it's one of the first underground rapid transit system in the United States. In which, I was welcomed by a red alert fire alarm, wow! a welcome buzzz...:) and fortunately it just lasted an hour.

You'll not run out of things to do in Boston, the bike ride was fun, the local restaurants we tried and the dun tours that you can choose from. Oh...just look around for many free events from food tasting, concerts and parties. :)

I can say that Boston, just gives you freedom to be own your own and what you want to be kind place. :)

Busy days...means busyness or business?!

Let's see if my busyness is equal to business. Whatever it takes, busy for me is something to be thankful. :) Wondering why? ... if we have something to do, that means we're not idle or lazy. An opportunity for us to keep moving. But for some busy for them is just an excuse to something, like not calling a loved one, friend or a missed occasion. :) Let me recall how's my "busyness" for the past weeks. Had a great time in Ohio, what a long drive!, long drive is sometimes great if you're just the passenger lol! You have time to look around, think while napping ( how's is it possible? lol) well, it's possible for me...it's just like day dreaming! :). A time to appreciate the quietness of the green surroundings that we passed by and just merely a get away. My online course in Open Education is almost over. Collaborating with people around the globe with same interest is amazing. Exploring the many possibilities of this new learning culture. Defi...

A crave for Tsokolate eh ...!

The other day I was craving for a hot chocolate...well maybe because of the cold weather. But I was craving for not just a hot chocolate. I want something that I used to have back in the Philippines...we call it Tsokolate eh ... wait how are you going to pronounce it ...it should be like this cho-koh-la-teh-eh!...i put the exclamation so you have an accent on the eh!...:) It's a Filipino thick hot chocolate, very similar to the signature hot chocolate of Starbucks. But of course it's way cheaper than a Starbucks hot chocolate. :) Tsokolate eh! is made up of tabrilya (tab-rillia)it's a cacao balls. But it's basically from a cacao fruit. It comes in different shapes but rounded tabrilya is the most common. :) There's a traditional way of doing this ...like before they use a beater for this called "batidor", but I don't use that anymore I just let it boil and use a regular spoon to beat it.:) Simplier but of course it taste better if it's done the...

Valentine's Day...

Many says that it's an over rated celebration...I can't understand why they seems to be bitter about celebrating this. For one this is not just about romantic celebration. For me it's a chance for us to at least celebrate love ...lavishly for a day...though we can show it everyday!!! and it's not all about romantic love...it's for everyone with someone special, family or friends. So, no matter what is your ideology or perspective on Valentines day ... whether it's on roses or chocolates...though me I still prefer flowers over chocolate...they're just beautiful as it is. ;) it's all about showing your love to your love ones that counts. Happy Valentine's Day to all!!! Let me share this nice note on Love...from Kurt Nerburn: "Letters To My Son" It's a bit long but worth reading. "It is a mystery why we fall in love. It is a mystery how it happens. It is a mystery when it comes. It is a mystery why some love grows and it is a mys...
