Fast Changes

I am always busy but it seems that I get busier as days go by. I was expecting some changes in my job but not this soon. Unfortunately, things went faster than I had expected. My days are that they are making me breathless. Now, am afraid that I might not be able to post as much as I can here in my blog. We'll see what'll happen next...

Litratong Pinoy#90 Plastik (Plastic)

Plastic has so many uses and it is a big help in a lot of things in our lives. However, it is not biodegradable and it contributes hugely in the destruction of our environment.

Pilipino: Maraming gamit ang plastik at naging malaking tulong ito sa maraming bagay sa ating buhay. Kaya lang, hindi basta-bastang natutunaw ang plastic at malaki rin ang kontribusyon nito sa pagkasira ng ating kalikasan.

Not only that, a lot of our animals especially the ones from our seas die from indiscriminate throwing of plastic in the seas.

Pilipino: Hindi lang yan, marami na ring mga hayup lalo na sa ating mga karagatan ang namamatay dahil sa hindi maayos na pagtatapon ng plastic.

Photobucket

I saw these plastic bottles in one of the faraway islands of Caramoan, Camarines Sur. It was a big surprise to see them there. The island was uninhabited. Our boatman said, they may have been left by the foreign reality show crew and participants who were doing their location shooting a few hours before we arrived. I just wished that they took their garbage with them. No one would clean up in that island at it was unihabited.

Pilipino: Ang mga plastik na botelya na ito ay nakita ko sa isang malayong isla ng Caramoan, Camarines Sur. Laking gulat ko nang makita ko ang mga ito. Wala kasing nakatira doon. Sabi ng aming bangkero, malamang naiwan ang mga ito ng mga dayuhang trabahante at partisipante ng isang realistikong palabas bago kami dumating. Sa akin lang, sana dinala nalang nila ang basura nila. Wala namang maglilinis doon sa islang iyon at walang nakatira.

Back To Running

I am back to running and I am struggling with it. It used to be just so easy but my irregular habit of doing it is making it difficult for me. I cannot not run. I will need the stamina that the mountain climbing activities these coming few days will ask from me. Running and boxing can only give me that stamina.

I wish running is just so easy. I have this love-hate relationship with running. I love it because it's faster to go from A to B. I love it because it really helps slim me down. I love it because I know it will keep me healthy. But, I hate it because it might appear easy but it's really not. Well, it's easy at the first few meters but after that, the will power starts to sway from wanting to continue running to just stop torturing this starting-to-get-old body of mine and walk out of the running track.

Sure, I get inspiration in having those nice running shoes (I love my Adidas nowadays) but gee, that inspiration only last until my feet starts hurting. Then, in a few minutes time, I would start thinking of throwing out those nice running shoes against the wall. And, just imagine that I could walk out the door walking barefoot. What a bliss, I thought.

I admire those people I see who just breeze through running everyday. They look graceful and almost like they're not running. I wonder if they are struggling just as the same. Perhaps, if I could just do it consistently. The grace would come and the struggle won't be as much.

Pacquiao vs Clottey Free Live Streaming

I went to the mall last night and saw this promo for free ticket on the Pacquiao vs Clottey boxing match for this weekend. Now, I have been looking for Pacquiao-Clottey free live streaming for days now and so far, I have seen these:
Curious with the promo I mentioned earlier though, I investigated more and found out that for a P350 worth of Head and Shoulders shampoo products, the free ticket for the Pacquiao-Clottey fight will be  given for free.

Litratong Pinoy#88 Likas (Natural)

It is natural for us Pinoys to be hardworking and industrious from  young to old. But, I can't help but feel something twist in my heart each time I see an elder especially frail person that is still working.

Likas sa ating mga Pinoy ang masipag at masikap mula pagkabata hangggang pagtanda. Kaya lang, hindi ko maiwasang makaramdam ng kirot sa puso tuwing may nakikita akong matanda lalo na kapag mahina na at nagtatrabaho pa rin.

Photobucket

I saw this old lady squatting by the side of the street in Camiguin while selling a few fish. She had no bench to sit on and she was bare footed. She wrapped her wares with banana leaves which might have been taken from the streetside. I wondered, where must be her relatives to let her still work at her age this way.

Nakita ko itong matandang babaeng na nakaupo sa tabi ng kalsada sa Camiguin habang nagtitinda ng kokonting isda. Wala siya bangkong inuupuan at nakapaa pa. Ang pambalot niya ng paninda ay dahon ng saging na kinuha pa yata sa tabi ng daan. Natanong ko tuloy sa sarili, nasaan kaya ang mga kamag-anak ng lola at pinapabayaan siyang naghahanapbuhay pa rin ng ganito.

Road To Dallas: Pacquiao vs Clottey

Just done watching HBO Sports' Road to Dallas: Pacquiao vs Clottey. It is really interesting to know that Clottey has similar background with Pacquiao. Both came from impoverished families, both started young in boxing and both used boxing as their way out of poverty.

Here's the link to see the HBO special:

Road to Dallas: Pacquiao vs Clottey - Part 1

Road to Dallas: Pacquiao vs Clottey - Part 2

PhotoHunt#80 Foreign

There's always something exciting and interesting when traveling in a foreign land. China is one of the countries that I find really fascinating. Different language, different people with their different culture and just about different everything.

Forbidden City,Beijing,China
This photo is of one of the buildings inside the Forbidden City in Beijing, China. Forbidden City is the world's largest surviving palace complex and it covers about 72 hectares. One day is just not enough to see all of the complex which was home to the Chinese Emperor and his household from Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty. Inside one can see a glimpse of how the Chinese royalty lived and how were they different from the people outside the palace gates.

Litratong Pinoy#87 Kalikasan(Nature)


Enigmata,Camiguin Island, Philippines


The summer is near and so, a lot of people are already looking for their vacation destinations. The island of Camiguin is one of the more well-known places for vacationers.

In Camiguin, nature is still near because if we compare the island to Boracay or Baguio,  the island has fewer developments and the existing buildings are still few.

Pilipino:
Malapit na ang bakasyon at siyempre pa, ngayon pa lang marami na ang naghahanap ng lugar na mapagbabakasyunan. Ang isla ng Camiguin ang isa sa mga kilalang lugar na puntahan ng mga bakasyunista.

Sa Camiguin, ang kalikasan ay malapit lang dahil kung ikukumpara sa Boracay o Baguio, ang isla ay may mas kokonting pagsulong at kokonti pa ang mga gusali.

Enigmata,Camiguin Island, Philippines

The Enigmata is a well-known inn in Camiguin Island. It has rooms in the treehouse. The place is surrounded by many trees and unique example of arts like those statues in the photo.

This is why when we slept in this place last year, I had this feeling that I was a relative of Tarzan.

For more details about Enigmata, go here.

Pilipino:
Ang Enigmata ay isang kilalang bahay-tuluyan sa isla ng Camiguin. May mga kuwarto itong nasa punong bahay na napaliligiran ng maraming mga puno at mga kakaibang sining gaya ng mga istatwang nasa litrato.

Kaya nang natulog kami rito noong nakaraang taon, nagkaroon ako ng pakiramdam na kamag-anak ko pala si Tarzan at ang kanyang butihing may-bahay na si Jane.

Para sa karagdagang detalye ng Enigmata, pumunta rito.

Get Higher Return On Your Pag-IBIG Membership

If you're saving your money in the bank or with other financial institutions, it's likely that the little interest they earned are eaten up by the withholding taxes. There's a little-known government program that is not only government-guaranteed, tax-free but also earns dividends higher than most financial institutions can offer.

Pag-IBIG Fund II membership is for all active Pag-IBIG regular members. The minimum monthly contribution is P500.00 per month and earns preferential annual dividend that is higher than the regular Pag-IBIG (Pag-IBIG I) contribution. Its maturity term of 5-year or 10-year is shorter than the Pag-IBIG regular contributions maturity term of 20 years.

For 2009, Pag-IBIG Fund declared a 5% dividends for its Pag-IBIG regular members which was applied to the total accummulated value of the member's contributions.

Pag-IBIG II membership contribution is not eligible for multi-purpose loan. But because Pag-IBIG II contributions earn higher interest yield and  are tax free, your money earns better returns. For more details, go to their website at http://www.pagibigfund.gov.ph/
