Awestrucked by all these different colors that brought about by Spring. :) Last week was really an awesome week and weather, well aside from my fabulous celebration *wink* :) To a hectic schedule weekends, the "Open Everything event @ NYC" was great. Down to a beautiful weather, flowers are everywhere, made me wonder if they just planted those flowers but they're really in some unexpected places popping around in red, yellow, white and pink ... trees have different flowers too...how beautiful to look at...I said before spring comes, maybe I wouldn't like Spring because I don't like rains...just because I had much of it when I was growing up hahaha! but it brings flowers... now I believe on the saying "April rains brings May flowers" :) now I'm, luvin it..especially I can wear now lighter clothes as compare to the thick clothes of winter. :) The colors of spring is like nature's way of saying, "What a refreshing day to celebrate!"

38 years of blessings!

What a beautiful day to celebrate. The sun is up...the weather is nice and the crisp spring smell was very inviting. The birds are chirping, feels like greeting me ...just like all my friends and families twittering around to send all their wishes. So, since the weather was so inviting with all the birds chirping, I went outside and say thank you to them. :) Nothing beats this beautiful weather after a chilly winter time. The morning coffee, sitting, looking around and a quiet time outside, was really wonderful to celebrate this special day, even away from friends and families. Lord, thank you for another year of mighty wonders and surprises!;)) ANd to my families and friends who never fails to send all their wishes and prayers. The more that I think I'm older, the more that I feel younger. *wink* Hahaha! I love you all! Sharing to you the lovely morning outside!

Summer Time....

What is it like to spending summer time in the Philippines ? Getting what I meant? Yea, missing the summer activities and the weather, though it doesn't just gets warmer ...but hotter. :) Summer is always fun in the Philippines , as everybody have their own plans to getaway/outing with families, friends and organization or companies. I always love summer time...for one it such a bliss to be somewhere closer to the sea and nature ...and neither you're with your family or friends. It just gives me a luxury of being at rest...a time that we stop planning, thinking and just as we are...laughing, eating or trying some water sports or beach activities. It's very refreshing. So, remember guys keep away from all your tech gadgets while on the beach or while having your summer getaway. :) Enjoy your summer!!! Some nice beaches we have in the Philippines . Stay away from getting sun burn folks! Have fun this hot summer time!

My hometown...Legazpi, Albay

When summer is coming and when you thought about vacations, I always thought of the place where I grew up. Legazpi, Albay , which is a city and capital of the province of Albay, Philippines. If we talk about Legazpi, we're known for spicy foods and coconut. Also, we're made famous because of Mayon Volcano the Philippines' most active volcano (well I still have a fresh memories about its eruption) and is considered to be the world's most perfectly formed volcano for its symmetrical cone. You can perfectly see Mayon Volcano with the very historical sunken church of Cagsawa. This church, was built after 1724 was buried by rocks and lava during the eruption of Mayon Volcano on February 1, 1814. What I liked about our place is that, it's accessible by land, water and sea. There are so many bus transportation companies. There are 3 major airlines that flies to Legazpi, Philippine airlines has 10 flights a week, and Cebu Pacific flies twice daily from Manila and the ...

One Laptop Per Child? How is this possible?!!!

Few weeks ago ... I had a chance to explore laptop.org from an email and finally join their support-team. This organization reminded me of our SFC service Gawad Kalinga (To give care)which give homes and care to the homeless. The OLPC (One laptop per child)organization is also a non-profit organization which I believed will open doors to many young kids around the world...in which they'll have a chance to gain new skills and perspective. This was so timely for me, I was really looking for something productive to spend my time with, on the other hand it's with my interest and also, to where I can use my experience both in the academe and Information Technology. Truly the evolution of learning now is way too far compare when I was just starting to learn. :) The techno era and culture now brings so much opportunities for children to learn more and help them to think out of the box, not only that they have a chance to collaborate with out spending much or going anywhere.
