March 30, 2009. Its been awhile since we first met. It was April 30, 2008 when we first chat. Yeah, we met only in a chatroom. I was downhearted at that time when i met him and chatted with him. But he came and showed me once more how beautiful it is to love (emo mode? LOL). Well, thanks to my "phaphang" Jemark for the wonderful 11 months and for loving me despite the odds. He is my knight and shining armor and i am his damsel in distress, but he rescued me. He lifted me up from my fall and highlighted the best in me. So, phang, this blog post is for you. I love you with all my heart. Happy 11th monthsary and next month will be our first anniversary. Hoping for a lovelier future with you.

P.S. Read my first blog about my past and him, on how our story started and the struggles i've encountered during our first phase in relationship. >>> LEARNING THE ART OF LETTING GO

As I browsed through the yahoo videos awhile ago, I found an interesting video about Loch ness monster from Scottish Highlands. Based on the video, Loch ness is still on the study progress, if it is a fact or a fiction. Below are a little information about the Loch ness monster.

Loch Ness is a huge, deep, freshwater loch located in Scottish Highlands. It is best known for claimed stories of the legendary Loch Ness Monster or called as "Nessie". It is similar to some other pressummed to be lake monsters elsewhere, even though its description differs from one story to the other. Popular beliefs and interest in the creature has fluctuated when it was brought to the attention of the people worldwide in the year 1933. Proof of its existence is very anecdotal, with little and unclear photographic item as well as sonar readings. The scientific society considers the Loch Ness Monster as a contemporary myth, and explicates sightings as a combinaiton of deceptions and wishful thinking. For main reason, I posted this because I am a bit interested on unexplainable things on earth, and Loch ness Monster is considered to be one. credits: info and image from wikipedia

Earth Hour is a yearly worldwide event formed by the World Wide Fund for Nature/World Wildlife fund or the WWF , held last year around March. This is the campaign that requests households as well as businesses to turn off lights and electrical appliances for just 60 minutes or one hour to raise awareness with regards to the need of an action on climate change.

The Earth Hour 2009 will start from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. local time, tomorrow, March 28, Saturday. In present, there are 82 countries and over 2100 cities will join the 'Earth Hour 2009', a big increase from individuals cooperating in 35 countries for Earth Hour 2008. Based on the survey made by the WWF, with the campaign of the Earth Hour 2008, there was a decreased in electricity usage by 70-80 megawatts. Now, Earth Hour 2009 aims to have a decreased in electricity usage of 100 megawatts. So, we, as part of the mother nature, we are able to help the campaign successful by turning off our lights tomorrow evening. It's not a big deal to turn off our lights for one hour, just one hour and it would give a big help to our mother nature. So, why not join? aja!

If you experience any of these signs and symptoms, you might need to relax a bit because you are stress already:

Irritability Tension headaches, shoulders aching, or tight muscles Forgetfulness Higher susceptibility to flu and colds High-blood pressure Depression Inability to concentrate Anxiety Abuse to Substance Sleeping Diffiuclty / Insomia

Being stress or not to be stress depends upon you. On how you handle every situation of your life. Coping with stress is easy as long as you set time, work, and yourself equally.

Almost every day in our neighborhood from 5 am to 1 am of the next morning, the customers on their "carenderia" or "karinderia" (whatever the spelling is), sing in the microphone, with a loud speaker, of their all time favorite songs even though they are out of tune. hehe.. Well, it disturbs me a lot especially when im busy writing articles. Instead of being annoyed, i'll just laugh of what i've been hearing everyday. haha.. Same songs, different renditions, different so-called "singers." And, one more, the "carenderia" or "karinderia" is just along the highway, so what do you expect, everybody can hear them especially the jeepneys and cars passing by, but they don't mind it, they have all the "confidence," in tagalog, "wala akong pakialam sa inyo, trip ko 'to."

Videoke is a very popular type of leisure in the Philippines. An entertainment in which proletarian singers or just anyone who would like to try singing, sing along with the recorded music by means of a microphone. On the video screen, the voice of the original singers are muted and the lyrics are shown with matching moving cursors as well as changing text colors so that one could easily follow the lyrics of the song. These serve as a lead to productively deliver the song. It could be in a TV with a player attached to it or it could also be a videoke machine wherein you just insert 2-5 pesos coin and press the buttons to enter the number of the song you want to sing and then play it. I admit that I also have the fun and pleasurable memories singing on videoke with my friends and family especially on birthday parties. There are also videoke in some malls here in the Philippines as part of the entertainment and recreation aside from shopping. I can say that videoke is a medium in which people can set their confidence out. It is not just to those who have the "sweet" or "golden" voice, but it is for everyone who would just like to enjoy each moment before or after a hard and busy day of their lives.

As i answered this fun and mind-boggling questions on "What Color is your Mind?" survey, im a happy with the result. | | | v

Your thoughts are creative, inventive and without boundaries. You tend to spend a lot of time thinking of fictional people - or a very different life for yourself.

Last Monday Afternoon, I went to my gyne-onco doctor for the reason that i have a mass in my external reproductive system. i don't want to specify for privacy's sake. hehe.. Well, my doctor gave me an antibiotic named: ceprofex (cepfalexin). the prescription was #15 tablets, 500 mg, 3 times a day. What a large dose right? but somehow, i noticed a slight decreased in the mass, and hopefully it would continue to descend. To add up, i researched on the drug study of ceporex (cefalexin) and below are a few detail about the drug. Ceporex tablets, capsules and syrup contain the active ingredient cefalexin, which is a type of medicine called an antibiotic. (NB. Cefalexin is also available without a brand name, ie as the generic medicine.) Cefalexin is a type of antibiotic called a cephalosporin. These antibiotics are related to penicillin. Cefalexin is used to treat infections wih bacteria. Cefalexin works by interfering with the ability of bacteria to form cell walls. The cell walls of bacteria are vital for their survival. They keep unwanted substances from entering their cells and stop the contents of their cells from leaking out. Cefalexin impairs the bonds that hold the bacterial cell wall together. This allows holes to appear in the cell walls and kills the bacteria. What is it used for? * Bacterial infections of the lungs and airways (respiratory tract), middle ear (otitis media), skin or soft tissue, bones and joints, urinary tract, including chronic prostatitis, genitals, teeth or gums.

Every year in Eastern Part of Canada, clubbing of this innocent creatures happened. And now is the season for that. They are badly clubbed in the head for what? - skin/fur industry - meat industry - sports fest as i go through on some of the brutality against these creatures, the three main reasons listed above are the major ones on why people do that. there are more than 300,000 seals died every year because of that dreadful and brutal actions made by humans. as part of PETA, i would like to say "NO" for seal clubbing. let's take care of our seals and the rest of the animals around the world as what GOD commanded us to be the caretaker of them. don't CLUB them, let's HUG them!!

Summer is here! Beaches, swimsuits, slippers, umbrellas, beach balls, etc - are some of the most memorable stuffs when we think of summer.. try to look at the image below.. is it wonderful to spend your summer vacation there? a beautiful paradise that makes our hot summer cool... well, one of the summer getaways is no other than the beach..i dont know why people love to go to beaches where in fact the sun is very hot that it could burn your skin.. maybe one of the reason is this... uhmmm, am i right? maybe yes. especially for most young men.. hahaha .. well, i considered summer as the THE HOTTEST SEASON OF THE YEAR yet the most enjoyable to spend your time with your family and friends. As the summer season starts, i know there are a lot of people spend their time together not only in beaches but somewhere else. That's the real mania about summer : bonding and spending one's time to one another. have a great summer!!!! xiao!!!!!
