Under the Sea...

Under the sea
Under the sea
Darling it's better
Down where it's wetter
Take it from me
Up on the shore they work all day
Out in the sun they slave away
While we devotin'
Full time to floatin'
Under the sea

Hay, I really felt Sebastian’s song in the Little Mermaid when I visited the Manila Ocean Park. I felt as if I was Ariel and the whole park was my home. There were different kinds of fish that I only got to see on TV before I visited the park. It was really a magical day for me. I especially loved the shark tank because I love sharks. I don’t know why but they just amaze me. I also enjoyed the fish spa because it made my feet feel more relaxed.

However, there was a bad side during my visit. The line was so long that we made 5 turns before entering the building. Aside from that the rooms were very crowded that you don’t get to see all the fish if you were as small as I (hehehe).

Despite all the lines and he crowded rooms, I still enjoyed it because it was m first time to visit such place. At some point my visit mad me wish that I was part of that world.

Love…love…love

Have you experienced falling? Falling from a tree, from your bed or even falling in love? Hahahaha, too mushy for you? Well, I haven’t experienced falling in love. Huhuhu charot…You might ask why all the poems in my multiply are about love. Let’s just say I can easily imagine an I can easily relate to the love stories of my friends and the stories I watch on TV.I have seen my friends fall in love. There are times that they look like full-bloomed flowers that are beautiful and fresh. However, there are also days when their beauty and freshness fades. This makes me wonder what love really does to people. I can’t understand why people feel happy and sad at the same time when they are in love. Well, since I can’t understand what love is and I cannot really comment anything about it. I’ll just leave you with some love quotes. Maybe you can understand love and then explain it to me later.

Amy Bloom:

Love at first sight is easy to understand; it's when two people have been looking at each other for a lifetime that it becomes a miracle.

Amy Tan:

I am like a falling star who has finally found her place next to another in a lovely constellation, where we will sparkle in the heavens forever.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery:

Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction.

Bible:

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
I Corinthians 13:4-8

Peace, my friends...

Violence can never resolve anything because violence only results to casualties. However, this seems to be ignored by the military and the Muslim groups in Mindanao as well. I know that both are just trying to protect their interests and what they think is good. But can’t they do it peacefully? Why do they have to use guns? I don’t get the point of trying to kill each other. Aside from that there are times that innocent people are accidentally killed because of them.

I believe violence will not help solve the problems in Mindanao. This should be seen by the government and the Muslims as well. For peace to flourish, both parties need to talk to each other so that they would be able to listen to each others’ views and opinions. This would allow them to really know and understand the problems of the other party. I hope the conflict in Mindanao would be settled so that we could live peacefully as one country.

Peace is not the absence of conflict but the presence of creative alternatives for responding to conflict -- alternatives to passive or aggressive responses, alternatives to violence”- Dorothy Thompson

Rainbow Salad

R- Red tomato

O- Orange carrot

Y- Yellow Mango

G- Green lettuce

B- Black Olives

I-I don’t know any salad ingredient whose color starts with I.

V- Violet grapes

Hehehe this is the usual color of my salad. It has all the colors of the rainbow except for blue and indigo. Well I haven’t encountered a salad with color blue or indigo in it. When I was smaller I just ate the lettuce in my salad. My mom was the one who taught me to make my salad colorful. Usually when she has time she prepares salad on weekends and she partners it with either fish fillet or pasta. I love the fish fillet and salad combo because I am able to eat plenty but still stay healthy. Hehehehe pasta and salad is also a good combo because it really fills my stomach. Kaya, for those who want to eat plenty but still want to be healthy try making salad as your main course….

A Delightful Morning

“ Know why God blessed you another morning to wake up? It’s to forget the pains of yesterday and see the chance the new day has brought, to dance and laugh again, to make up for the wrong things you’ve done, to see your friends, to love again and to make others feel loved and happy. You see, it’s more than just another long day ahead. It’s God’s way of reminding you that He cares and loves everyone of us.”- text from a friend

What this message tells is very true because every waking moment is a chance for us to renew ourselves. It’s another chance for us to show everybody our love and appreciation because who knows there might not be another chance for us to show the people our love how much you love them.

Aside from being a chance to change and show love. Every time you wake up is also another chance for you to enjoy a delicious cup of coffee (Yehey!) that will energize you and keep you on the go for the day.

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!!!!
