Xenias

Got carrried away with flowers so here are more flower macros. These are summer xenias but since we have a tropical climate all year round, they grow and bloom during any month.

Bulbs in Bloom

My bulbs are in bloom and they gave me an opportunity to try out my digicam's macro settings. I think I was able to capture the details well yet, I needed to sharpen my pics so I used Paint.Net for that.

Musical Addict

Enchanted(starring Mcsteamy of Grey's Anatomy) is showing on Star Movies and despite the amount of work load I have right now, I can't help watch for a few minutes. I could say I'm a musical addict and sometimes I just laugh at how corny I may seem to others. Don't really care, I've always loved musicals-all the colors, dancing and singing. Way back in college, I used to dress up and go gala's of musicals showing in Cebu. I've had the chance to watch a few-Man of La Mancha, Le Voice, St. Francis... All thanks to my aunt-who like me was greatly influenced by my lolo to love myths, legends and fairytales.

Enough said.hehehe.natutuwa lng talga ako at natatawa. a breather from my work lang.hehehe

Cram

It's four in the morning and I (again) am cramming to beat a deadline. Ugh! This set is just for 20 keyword articles yet its been seven days and I'm not even half way there yet. I'm really bothered with my hubby's probs. If he is drinking to get over the fear or anxiety, I'm sleeping mine off. It's a good thing I got two new things this week. I finally have a planner for 2009 and I got a watch with interchangeable straps and cricular band or something. I do not usually go for cheap stuff (hehehe, when it comes to watches lang), but it looked sosyal and it came in a fancy box. It also has a black strap which I can use when I just wear t-shirt. (usually the case nowadays since I have loads of vintage tees). enough said.need to work again.ugh!

Content

It's been a while since I went to the beach to see the sunrise. It's rainy season already. So aside from my passion for sunrises, I turn my notebook's speaker volume to high and put on Rob Costlow/Yanni/David Benoit's songs on my MP3 player. Its six am and I feel like I'm at the beach.

Lunch With a Korean Friend

I had lunch with a Korean friend today and my conversation with him made me realize how little I know about Filipino traditions. (I've been acting as stewards for Korean missionaries since I was in college. Only that I handled students back then) My friend is here in a mission work but for the first two years, he's going to learn the English language, our dialect and traditions. He likes taking friends to lunch or coffee since he gets to practice speaking English and gets to ask about Filipino traditions and culture. Today, we ate at Gerry's Grill and we talked about the food served there. He asked me what my favorite was and I pointed pancit bihon for him. He liked it and asked if I could cook for him. I didn't promise him anything, I said he might not like the food I cook. I did tell him I bake and he asked what I needed so I can bake for him. In the end, I think he was thinking of buying an oven. hahaha!

Then he aked about traditional Filipino marriage so he indulged my so called history lesson with an occasional 'I'm not sure' statement from me since I really don't know much about Filipino traditions. But he did laugh when I told him I was 25 y.o. already. Then it was my turn to laugh when he said he thought I was 19 or 20!
