Air Supply Concert Experienced

It was a great experienced for me to watch Air Supply concert specially when I had a chance to have a picture taking with them =)

Leaping into the air

Lets admit that it was nice to have a jump shot photos. Specially that digital cameras getting affordable which we can enjoy taking bunch of photos. Most of the time it took many clicks before we achieved the perfect leaps into the air. The best part of it after seeing the result which are the facial expressions and different style of leaping. No more simple jumping up, that is so passe. Let's be creative. Here's my collections and vivid memories of jumpshots that can be cherished for a lifetime... Do you also have a jump shot photos?

GenSan XRM Motor Trail in Malita

GENTUNA XRM MODIFIED

I only had 2 hours sleep - woke up exactly 3:30 a.m. on March 29, 2009 as we need to be gathered at 4 a.m. at Bulaong Headquarters among with the GENSAN TUNA MODIFIED XRM CLUB. We prayed before we left General Santos City heading to Malita for a Motor Trail and of course we had an Elf truck for back up.It was my first time so I was little bit enthusiastic. We took our breakfast at the Cliff Hanger restaurant at 6 a.m. which was sponsored by the GenSan Government.

My friend Kane and I

On our way to Malita we had to pulled over for 10 minutes to take pictures and a little rest. We arrived in Malita Municipal Hall at 10 a.m. Our lunch was sponsored by the Malita Mayor .

Little Baguio

At 1 p.m. the adventure started. We were told to visit The Little Baguio in Malita though it was far and an extremely rough road we really persevered to see the place. Only two kinds of transportation can go there and those are weapon carrier and motorcycle. Along the way at rough spots on the road a few of us fell down with our motorcycles. But that didn't scare us away. Finally, with all the sweat and hardships of going up, we were able to reached the said place. The air was so fresh, weather so cold, water was lucid from the falls.... For me its like a little paradise.. Rest houses are available for those who want to stay overnight.

As we tried to go back, a few of the group fell down but no one was injured, some motorcycle lights got broken .Good thing that there was a transportation weapons carrier which passed by and gave us a lift since our back up couldn't make it going up to the said place. A few of the motorcycles were put onto the Elf truck. God is so good and he is watching us. I felt so safe when I was on that truck..

Transportation in the area

( aside from motorcycle)

On our way home from Malita to General Santos City, we need to pulled over because one motorcycle got a flat tire, then another ran out of gasoline and a lot more happened during that Motor Trail. We arrived in Gensan around 10;30 pm, all of us were so exhausted and had a muscle pain. It was a great experienced for me. We arrvived home safely and no one got injured. If they ever invite me again 100% I will join them.

Have you ever tried Motor Trail?

Everytime I am in a restaurant I always checked the comfort room. It is a plus factor for me if they give effort to make the comfort room nice, clean, with hand washing area and with toilet tissue. Worry no more because Orange Bistro provides a comfy comfort room.

My Natal Day

This is my birthday BLOG since I have so remiss in writing lately! Last March 8, 2009 I was celebrating my 3oth natal day. I thank the Lord for the graces he has given me and how grateful I am to be still breathing. I am very much happy that I reached this number and still looking younger than my real age. As I get older things constantly changing and for me its all about making the best out of it.

My birthday celebration was a unique and very memorable one. I prepared simple dinner ( 6 viand and 2 dessert) and few close cousin and friends were invited it's like 30 guest came. I had few games and prizes for my visitors. Those are - the longest way saying happy birthday (no one was exempted) , hephep-horray, balloon pop were there is a piece of paper for consequence. Everyone was having a great time specially in videoke. The party ended at 2 a.m.

Happy Birthday to all the March babies…and everyone else too!

Good news for the early birds because they got a cool pen from Donna Mae Congson. I got one, thanks! It should be all of us could have a pen but since we are so many and the pen are only limited, we decided only early birds can get a pen. Sorry for the late comers better luck next time.

As the tradition, bloggers always took a bunch of photos for them to post it to their blog. But the most favorite part for M.U.D was the eating session. Come on guys don't deny that. *winks*

It's another memorable night for the bloggers and a fruitful one. Looking forward to see you again on the next M.U.D.

Oh Manila!

It was 7th of Feb. my departure from General Santos City going to Manila. Cebu Pacific flight was delayed by an hour. We left Gensan at 3:30 p.m. and we arrived at 5:30 p.m. Waited for Sherilou's to fetch us - she was 2 hours late compared to our flight. =( To reduced our boredom my friend Morian and I were roaming around inside the international airport and took a bunch og photos.


I stayed in Manila for 1 week. I was there for some reasons. Had to witnessed baby Cali Christening and for my medical check-up at U.S.T Hospital. Don't worry guys its nothing serious. Been in Manila for so many times already. We went to Tagaytay and got the best Bulalo in town. It's so cold in there, much better if you have someone to hug to keep you warm- haha! It was a memorable trip. On the next day after Tagaytay, it was a Valentine's Day. I missed Gensan and it much better if I did celebrate my Valentine's day in Gensan for sure it will be a wonderful one since a friend of mine invited me to watch David Pomeranz Concert. I just loved his songs - it's my all time favorite. My friends and I end up shopping in Glorietta Mall during Valentine's day. But we had witness a helicopter throwing rose petals on air..It was so fantastic.... I only seen that in the movie but now it was real....

What I don't like in Manila was the traffic and the time flies so swiftly .. You can't accomplish all the things that you wanted for the day..


Now let me ask you. Have you ever been to Manila? Do you like to live there for the rest of your life?
