===================================

While in EDSA yesterday, I discovered one thing:

Pinoys can't drive in a straight line. Everybody keeps on swerving. It was scary.

Taken from Exams

In an exam when I was in my undergrad years, I came across this and ever since, I haven't forgotten it.

If you want to be seen
Stand up

If you want to be heard
Speak up

If you want to be appreciated
Shut up.

Another one during my college application exam:

I believe in the sun, even when it is not shining.
I believe in love even when feeling it not.
I believe in God even when God is silent.

Travel Pictures: Corregidor Island

A few years ago, my friends and I started this list of places we want to visit. Since we were earning measly salaries for being RAs at school, we can only cross the names on our list, one at a time. The first trip we made, as far as I can remember, was our guided weekend tour trip at the island of Corregidor, which was a major battle area during the World War II. These are some of our pictures from that trip...

Weddings and Pictures

A close friend of mine got married a week or so ago. I cannot but only feel so honored to be part of their very special day. It was a very lovely wedding and even if I have to wear a dress (which I loathe to do for anything else), no one can stop me from attending this one special occasion. Again, I just have to say that it was really a beautiful wedding amidst a very diverse attendees and very colorful entourage. There were a lot of pictures taken but I guessed I got too happy posing for the camera I forgot to take my own. Here are a few of the pictures I was able to take with my camera...

To my dear friends, thanks for a memorable day! I won't be able to look at champagne, wine and beer the same way again! Cheers!
