Educational Tour for the Family

When I was growing up, my brother and I were not exposed on traveling outside the city except summer time where I spent my whole vacation in the province. I like spending time with my cousins especially when we go swimming in the nearby waterfalls. Picking wild fruits in the forest was pretty exciting for me.On school days, I can't really remember that I attended an educational tour. I only started traveling when I was in college and I learn a lot from it. I believe that acquiring knowledge is not limited in the four corners in the classroom.Last Valentines Day, I treat my brother and his family for a trip to Manila for 5 days. I shouldered the plane ticket, food, entrance fee to some parks and museum, hotel stay and gave my mom some pocket money. All 6 of them deserve to have a bonding vacation. The pictures here were taken at Museo Pambata in Manila, Philippines.My brother made it sure that their itinerary was focused for the kids. It was an educational tour for the kids because they went to the museums, Manila Zoo, and travelled to some of the major attractions in the Manila. Well, the adults enjoyed their vacation too.

A Good Strategy to Quit Smoking

According to a study by researchers at the Boston University School of Public Health in 2010, the electronic cigarette is safer to use than real cigarette. It also helps the smoker to break the habit of smoking. The research study also shows that the real danger in traditional cigarette is from the tobacco smoke plus the many additional chemicals added in it.

Compared to E cigarette, it has no tar, ash, carbon monoxide and has no tobacco in it. Those who use it still have the same amount of nicotine from traditional cigarette. There is no smell of smoke therefore; smell of a smoker is definitely gone for good. It is healthier and cheaper alternative to traditional cigarette because each cartridge costs less compared to the price of an entire pack of the real cigarette.

Electronic cigarette comes in different flavors which are propylene glycol-free. When people use the electronic cigarette around you, you will not get the harmful second hand smoke but, only the water vapor. Nowadays, electronic cigarette is more socially acceptable than traditional cigarette.
I have friends who used electronic cigarette because they wanted to quit smoking. It helps a lot! Somehow, they gradually forgotten the taste of tobacco from the traditional cigarette. When they use this product, it works for them.

Jessica Sanchez is IN the Finale of American Idol

Joshua Ledet is out! Jessica Sanchez made it to the finale! It is now between her and Phillip Phillips. Jessica Sanchez was born in Chula Vista, California and I know in my heart, she got the support from this place. Her parents Gilbert and Editha Sanchez must be proud of her.

Her father, a Mexican American originally from Texas, is a U.S. Navy veteran who fought in the Iraq War and served in Afghanistan. Jessica Sanchez visited the US Navy in her hometown and by looking at that crowd, I know they voted for Jessica Sanchez. No wonder she made it!

Her mother is a Filipino American from Bataan province in the Philippines. And, all of us Filipinos are united to help Jessica Sanchez realize her dreams. Did you know that Jessica Sanchez was selected for full scholarship training at the Theater of arts in Hollywood? She is currently a home schooled high school student in 11th grade. Education is very important for this angel.
Way to go Jessica! WOW them all in your last performance! May God bless you!

Smash Hit : RUN by Katharine McPhee

There are so many talents in American Idol who never made it as a big winner but, won the hearts of producers and followed by the people who knows real talents. American Idol season 5 runner-up Katharine McPhee became the star of the musical drama series SMASH, aired every Monday on NBC channel. If you love music, drama with intriguing characters and dance moves, you should watch SMASH! Here's one song that I love on the show.

I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all I've done

And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here


Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, dear

Louder, louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak, I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbyes
I nearly do

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, dear

Louder, louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak, I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, dear

Louder, louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak, I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

Her performance is always flawless but, she needs all the Votes she can get from us. Let us all continue to support Jessica Sanchez by Voting for her name after the show. For those of you who haven't heard Jessica Sanchez version of the song "And I Am Telling You", here it is:



And I am telling you
I'm not going
You're the best man I'll ever know

There's no way I can ever go
No, no, there's no way
No, no, no, no way I'm living without you
I'm not living without you
I don't wanna be free
I'm staying
I'm staying
And you, and you
You're gonna love me, oh ooh mm mm
You're gonna love me

And I am telling you
I'm not going
Even though the rough times are showing
There's just no way, there's no way
We're part of the same place
We're part of the same time
We both share the same blood
We both have the same mind

And time and time, we've had so much to see and
No, no, no, no, no, no way
I'm not waking up tomorrow morning and finding that there's nobody there

Darling there's no way
No, no, no, no way I'm living without you
I'm not living without you
You see there's just no way, there's no way

Please don't go away from me
Stay with me stay with me
Stay, stay and hold me
Stay, stay and hold me

Please stay and hold me, Mr. Man,
Try it mister, try it mister
I know, I know, I know you can

Tear down the mountains
Yell, scream and shout like you can say what you want
I'm not walking out
Stop all the rivers, push, strike and kill
I'm not gonna leave you
There's no way I will

And I am telling you
I'm not going
You're the best man I'll ever know
There's no way I could ever, ever go
No, no, no, no way
No, no, no, no way I'm living without you
Oh, I'm not living without you,
Not living without you
I don't wanna be free
I'm staying, I'm staying
And you, and you, and you
You're gonna love me

You're gonna love me, yes you are
Ooh ooh love me, ooh ooh ooh love me
Love me, love me, love me, love me

You're gonna love me

Mon Tulfo versus Raymart and Claudine

I was reading the opinions of people debating about who is at fault between the celebrity couple Raymart and Claudine or the newspaper columnist Mon Tulfo.

When I heard Mon Tulfo's version, I was thinking, why did he intervene in the first place? The couple was already upset because their luggage was not on the plane with them. One should stop and think twice but, he acted like a paparazzi. Knowing or not knowing that they are celebrities, he probably thought that he can download and use the still photos on the Internet and create a headline on the news. Instead, he became the headline with all those black eyed punches he got. An incident like this will eventually happen when you (have nothing to do to help) intervenes a very delicate situation like that.

Taking pictures and videos of people without their consent is a NO! NO! So; I can understand that Raymart will be mad and would go after the camera of Mr.Tulfo.

I do not like Claudine as an actress (goes back with Rico Yan time). She may have a bad attitude with endless cursing machine mouth but, as a passenger who waited in the baggage section then, later found out that their luggage was left behind, she has the right to get upset

I would do the same too. It happen to my luggage once though, I did not curse and I maintain my breeding.

Getting upset is a normal reaction! She is no angel and she is a brat! So what? That is who she is but, what makes it worst? When a brat was approached by a stranger who was trying to capture a picture in her most unpleasant mood.

Result? Chaos! Who is at fault? Let the court handles the judgement! This is not over till it is over. PEACE!

The Town of Christmas

I got a free one year subscription from a magazine and I decided to send the form directly to the post office. We were traveling from Cocoa to Orlando and since we pass by Christmas, a town in Florida, we decided to just mail the form there. Oh, the town of Christmas is really Christmassy in fact, along the road, you can see Christmas trees in full Christmas decor with a manger. Of course, the post office has a Christmas tree and when you are in this place, it feels like December minus the snow. I got the picture and I will share it next time. Thanks for stopping by.

Unconditional Love from Pet Dogs

I am always scared of dogs because when I was in my elementary days, a big dog just attack me and I got bit in my middle torso. It was a huge dog and I was on my knees trying to cover my face and someone saw me struggling and shoo the dog away.

I was crying helplessly and my mom came in rescue. Back home (during those times), pet animals are really watchdogs. It scared burglars away especially when there is a sign of "beware of dogs". Fierce dogs are put on leash and the dog that bit me got away from the leash with the knowledge of the owner. I was at the wrong place at the wrong time.

I am not over it and it's been years. I am very cautious with pet animals and in the house, we do not have any. I do not hate dogs and I think they are cute but, I am always careful when I am around them.

With that being said, most of our friends have pet dogs and I am fond of them too. I like Ernie which is a black dachshund puppy, Happy is a brown poodle, Rocko is a Yorkshire Terrier and Rusty is a labrador which is the only huge dog that I am comfortable playing with.

All of them except Rusty are well taken care of. In fact, their pets are considered as family and the owners are really pet parents. How about you? Do you have pets? Check out Pets Aware Pet Shop and Pet Care for some information that will help you become more aware of your responsibilities as pet owners. Taking care of them, grooming, making sure that they are happy because in return, they will love you unconditionally.
