Yesterday, we had a company outing/activity at Ipo Dam, Norzagaray, Bulacan. I almost missed the second bus because I forgot to set my alarm by 4am. Thank God I was able to wake up by 5:15am and hurried my way to the office. Our call time is 6am and lucky I am, I made it!YEAH!!!

We arrived at the place at around pass 8am. We settled ourselves with our groups and headed up to the place where we going to have the tree planting. My team is Acacia and we were the first group to climed. This is my first time to experience hiking and that is the one reason why I am so excited and happy for this activity. I am only wearing a sneakers but it was just fine because the soil was not that slippery. Going up on the mountain was really a great experience for me. I would definitely do it again and again and again...We climbed 500 meters (was that high enough for a first timer?) and when my team reached the point where we going to plant our trees, we are all exhausted and tired...but happy that we managed to go up safe and sound.

I didn't waste much time to take a rest so I went on planting my trees. The soil is already dug before so we will just put the plant on it and cover it with soil. It was a sunny day so I really sweat a lot. My Gatorade bottle is already empty but I'm still thirsty. My team help each other to plant the trees so we finished early over the time expected. I made to plant 6 or 7 crops.

It was already 10am and the sun is really hurting us so I looked for a place to take a rest somewhere that has shade. Finally, we were invited to the Baraks, a nipa hut on top of the mountain and there we wait for the other groups and rested.

After few minutes, we are now ready to go down the mountain by taking the other way. I guess my feet were really tired that's why I find it harder to go down rather than going up. This time I am very careful because the way is a little bit slippery and stiff plus my sneakers was not really helping at all...huh!

When we reached the ground we took pictures and wait for the signal of our team leader that we can now go back to bus and be ready for lunch & swimming in Grotto Vista Resort in Bulacan.
too.

My Wordless Wednesday #3

Twins Found in Caged like Animals now Thriving...

I can't help to think what kind of parents these kids had. There story was really a sad one, not only sad but very traumatic for their young minds. I'm really glad that there is a couple who have a big heart and took all the responsibilities for the twins and their big brother. "May these couple be bless by all means for the things they had done for this children". They deserve a very special reward and great acknowledgment.
SALUTE!!!

Share the Moments!

I saw these pictures while surfing the net.

loving care, undeniable security
and lasting relationship.
I hope you felt the same way as I did.
Keep giving love and care
to your love ones.

Woman, what an inspiration!!!

As I watched this video, I was thinking how fortunate I am to have a complete body parts. But can't stop admiring this lady for her strong determination and very positive outlook in life. Though I know I'm much capable doing all those jobs than her still I envy her because she is doing it better than I could. The way she take care of her baby, changing diapers, feeding, doing households chores...WOW! She goes to the gym...me, I don't. She drives...me, I don't. She goes to grocery alone...me, I don't...I need my husband to help me carry bags of groceries.

This woman is really an inspirational person for those people who are still complaining of everything in spite of what they have. There are a lots of people that couldn't live without their cellphones, ipods, laptops and name all the worldly things around us. How about this person? Can you imagine having your cellphones, your ipods and laptops but losing one part of your body? Will you still say life is good if you loose one part of your body? Think of that!

Be thankful everyday of your life. Waking up everyday is one of the greatest things you should be thankful for. Eating 3x a day or more is one of the greatest things we should be thankful for. Live your life to the fullest and enrich your own gift to be worthy of. Life is simple don't make it complicated!

Mabuhay Ka, Manny!

Today is the most awaited day of all Filipinos, esp. those who love boxing and fans of our very own Manny Pacquiao. I really don't like this sports, for me it's kinda boring, but if Manny is in the ring, I love to watch it. I don't know if he has this sort of "anting-anting" - lucky charm, because he really fight so well. He is totally unbeatable.

His opponent Antonio Barrera is very eager to knockout Manny but sorry to say Mr. Barrera, Manny just came very prepared for this fight. I got already a feeling that Manny will won, why? I don't know but i think it's my instinct. As I watched the fight, I've been waiting for Barrera to fall, actually he did... almost, when Manny gave him a punch, he takes out of control and somewhat loose his conscious but he manage to stand still. He try to bit off Manny illegally and it was shown in television...bad cheetah! You can't fight fairly enough, that's why you loose.
