my buddhas and me

i like the images of buddha. how serene it appears to me. makes me feel at peace. makes me forget my problems for the time being just staring at it.


pastel buddha face i bought in bali for 60 000 rupiah, a buddha head made out of wax

buddha on a frame

i couldn't resist so i tried to strike a pose. this is inside the dresser/cabinet in swiss bellhotel view in bali.

travel blog : Palawan


went to puerto princesa and el nido in palawan. its really worth trravelling your own country. worth meeting good people. really good people in a very good place that is. i loved the place already and i cannot wait to get back there. although travelling from puerto to el nido is not that good coz of the very rough road, when you get to el nido all the backache i had was gone. lots of beautiful islands, lagoons, secret beaches, seafoods. and good people.

please support local tourism especially when the people there are very hospitable and ready to serve/assist you in anything they could. be good to the environment. in palawan they treat their natural resources with respect. they love it. they educate the visitors about it, what they do, how they conserve it, why they do it.

old friends

i was checking my multiply account and saw my old old album. the albums i created back in 2003. it is somewhat nostalgic and kind of saddens me. not really saddens but there is some sort of heaviness in my heart. i really miss the old days. back then when we were young and we're not mature enough to feel, realize and complain about our situation in the company. all we do is to have fun, eat out, travel etc. 

now everyone seems to have their own lives. gotten married. parents already. . i'm just missing their company. i think i need to grow up a little bit more noh?

happy birthday to me


happy birthday to me. i kept silent about it when i arrived in the office. i don't want anyone greeting me and then asking where i would celebrate it. it was already held in the prov. sorry guys.

i am a year older again. i am not that old and my way of thinking is just like an 18 year old. so maturity- wise my age is not proportional to my maturity. but its okay. at the end of the day what is important is i am happy today. no worries. i'll save and face them tomorrow. again happy birthday to me.

beijing summer olympics

the games has already started with a very spectacular opening. extravagant if i may add. anyway i am waiting for another fight between rafa and roger in tennis. and definitely either one of them will win the gold. i want rafa to win though but if its roger its fine as well. he's a tough guy to beat when he is in his form.

i will cheer for my countrymen who were able to qualify for the game but i doubt they will bring a gold medal. 15M is not enough for an incentive/bonus. it should have been spent during training of these pinoy athletes rather than an incentive when they snatch the gold. i mean the chances are really slim. even if the whole country pray to god prayers is not enough. there's a lot of factors to bring home the gold. i am not being negative. i am just realistic.
