admin — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 09:39:19 +0000

If you are looking for an affordable hotel in Cagayan de Oro, come to Country Village Hotel. Country Village Hotel is located at Carmen, Cagayan de Oro City. One of the reasons why people love this place because of their swimming pool which also has affordable rates.

They only charge 100 pesos for swimming fee and you can now enjoy unlimited swimming experience. A lot of kids enjoy their swimming pool because it does not only have great pool filters but its safe and has slides. If you happen to visit here in the afternoon, you can find a lot of people taking swimming lessons.

What’s Your Name?

I really had difficulty remembering names especially when I am introduced to a lot of people. Maybe my mind couldn’t really grasp a number of names to be memorized in one setting. During college, if I can’t remember my classmate’s name I just call him or her “classmate” and then all is well. But the hardest thing is, when you met your classmate after college and would gladly talk to you as if you were that close. What would you do? Just like what happened to me a week ago. I met my classmate in college while I was waiting for my ride home. Actually we we’re not that close, I even forgot his name but our conversation lasted for about 30 minutes. We talked about life, career opportunities and etc… it was really fun talking with him given the fact that he was a gay and he’s really fun to be with. He’s very talkative… and I wanted to ask his name but I feel a bit awkward asking. I don’t want him to be offended that I forgot his name. At the back of my mind, I kept on thinking on some clues so I could remember his name… is it JR? John? I really can’t remember and I don’t have anymore idea what his name was. I was trying to open up stories where he could mention his name but it never happened. So I tried to ask his number and asked his name .. his name was Argie. Now I remember. He also asked my number and typed it on his cell phone. After that, I was surprised with his question.. he also asked my name. Lol! He too forgot my name…

Enjoying the Beach

We all had fun during my grandmother’s birthday celebration. The weather was so nice and the beach was just so awesome. My cousins and some relatives were there and we truly had a blast.

One of the things we enjoyed the most was riding on the ‘bottom-glass” boat. The glass part of the boat allowed us see the bottom part of the ocean. We were truly amazed upon seeing huge corals, fishes, start fishes, sea urchins and more. We also had the opportunity to feed the fishes and the experiences was just amazing. My grandmother wasn’t able to ride the bottom-glass boat because she was afraid of the waves.

My grandmother’s birthday celebration was truly a great day to enjoy, have fun and bond as a family. Can’t wait to have another fun day at the beach next year.

Going to the Beach

Today is my grandmother’s 81st birthday and we will be having a beach party. I took a leave from a 4 day seminar and decided to be there on my grandmother’s birthday because this only happens once in a lifetime. So today were heading to Medina, Misamis Oriental a 4 hour ride from Cagayan de Oro City. Hope it’s going to be a lot of fun. I will post the details tomorrow….

A Visit to Hong Kong Disneyland

admin — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 02:31:25 +0000

My mother-in law will be traveling to HongKong tomorrow. She will be touring around Hong Kong Disneyland. I was so excited for her while she’s packing up her things today; it makes me wanna go with her too… (ha.ha.) Actually, I have never been to Hong Kong Disneyland and this is one of the places I’d like to visit. It is very easy to visit Hong Kong nowadays because there are now affordable air fares as well as affordable travel promos. So, as early as today I am now planning of saving money for this trip.

Wondering about the photo above? This photo was not taken at Hong Kong Disneyland (as it was pretty obvious). Two weeks ago, we had the opportunity to visit “Trinoma,” one of the biggest mall in Manila. While inside the mall, we saw their very cute castle decoration with a caption “Hong Kong Disneyland”. Without delay, hubby and I posed beside the castle and imagined that we were in Hong Kong Disneyland. Anyway, I am hoping to have a photo at the real HK Disneyland soon.

Shocking News!

I wasn’t feeling well today and I felt a pain on my ears. I was so disturbed about it so I went to see an ear doctor to have it checked. The doctor told me that my ears were fine and the pain might have been due to my colds. She has prescribed an anti allergy medication to prevent me from getting colds due to allergy.

As I went home, the pain was still there. I felt very tired and slept the whole afternoon. Even if I was so hungry, I still didn’t bothered to wake up and eat. After a few hours of sleeping I feel some itch on my legs and I scratched it. I noticed some rash on it and asked my husband if the rash looks like a chicken pox. He told me it wasn’t a chicken pox so I went to take a bath.

After bathing, I noticed lots of skin rash on my legs and arms and I asked my hubby if it’s chicken pox. Hubby’s eyes opened wide and he told me that indeed it was chicken pox. Oh my! What am I going to do? My students will look for me especially that today is the first day of our exam and on the 23rd will be having our graduation program.

I really don’t like this to happen.. especially that chicken pox will leave terrible scars on my body… but I don’t have a choice now. I will just have to pray that only a few skin rash will come out.

Back to School Tomorrow

My Christmas break is over. I’m excited to see my students tomorrow as I haven’t seen them for more than two weeks. I have just finished preparing all my stuff for school and hope to have a fun and enjoyable class tomorrow. Now I will sleep early because my sleep schedule has been out of track lately. LOL! Hope I can wake up early by tomorrow.

Yummy Sunday 23: New Year Celebration

admin — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 16:00:46 +0000

Happy New Year everyone! How was your New Year’s Celebration? Hope you all had fun. Ours was indeed fun because a lot of kids came to celebrate with us. We had children’s games all night and had fireworks too. As for our food, we prepared all kinds of dish that is made of dish because my mother in-law is taking control of her high blood pressure. But a Filipino New Year celebration is not fun without Lechon, so we ordered one from a friend. We also had cake for dessert. Below are the photos of some of the foods we had last New Year’s Eve.

Fried Tilapia (this one is prepared by my mother-in law)

Fruity Fish

Baked Tuna Panga

Lechon

Preparing for New Year's Eve

admin — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 12:43:30 +0000

I used to be busy whenever we have special occasions and celebrations at home. It is because I am the one who’s in charge in the kitchen. But this time, I chose not to cook because I wanted to enjoy our New Year’s Eve Celebration. I wanted to have enough strength and energy because oftentimes I will not anymore enjoy the celebration because all of my strength were already consumed in all the preparation. I’m just so thankful that today we only have to prepare simple foods for dinner. My mother in-law will prepare “Sotanghon” while hubby will be baking “Tuna Panga”. All other foods are to be bought outside. My task for today is to clean and beautify the house. Well, it isn’t that hard to do… I guess I will have to start now so that everything will be prepared on time.

Advance Happy New Year!

The Spirit of Christmas

What is the true Spirit of Christmas? Is it having fun? Is it having many many gifts?

The true Spirit of Christmas is all about Worship. Everyone who came to see the baby Jesus born in a manger, the shepherds, the 3 wise men, and all the angels came to worship Him. The true Spirit of Christmas is a celebration of the birth of our Savior.

As we celebrate Christmas, may we spend time to truly worship ourSavior and thank Him for what He has done in our lives.
