Pictures of Rain Clouds

These pictures were taken in Orlando, Florida. I always had fun watching the sky because of the different cloud formation. These type of clouds shown in the pictures were rain clouds. As we drove in that direction, the rain started pouring so hard and the road had zero visibility.
Well, the bad weather passes so quickly and later that afternoon, the sky was clear again.

Cloud With A Tail

I love watching the sky at night because of the stars. I am fascinated with the blue sky in the morning because of the cloud formation. Look at this picture which I took in Orlando. We were on the road heading to Port Canaveral when I saw this cloud with a tail. It is beautiful! It looks like a chick flappin' it's wings and zooming fast.
Well, just a shallow thought though. LOL!

Hostage Drama in the Philippines

My husband is planning to visit the Philippines either December or April of 2011. We are actually waiting for a good deal online and we are all set to go. Then, big news happened about the Hostage-Drama in the Philippines which ended 8 casualties of foreign nationals.

I am a Filipino and what happened was a total shock! The hostage taker is Rolando Mendoza who took a busload of Chinese nationals. We all witnessed the agonizing incident aired live on TV. Go to youtube if you want to know more about it. It was 12 hours of critical negotiations which ended tragically. Who should we blame?

I am sad that there were lives lost! I am disappointed why it took the negotiators 12 hours to negotiate. It seems that the police force who handled the hostage drama were incompetent! Weren't they? The negotiators mishandle the negotiation (so bad)!

Would the incident become a deterrent to visit Philippines? My husband said, it was an isolated case. He will still visit the Philippines sometime soon. You can see so many "ROLANDO MENDOZA" anywhere in the world! It was just an awakening for us Filipinos that shocking as it maybe, a Filipino was capable of such gruesome action.

It was truly an isolated incident!

My deepest sympathy and prayers to the family and friends of the victims. The Filipino all over the world condemn the action of Rolando Mendoza. We will never tolerate such an Evil Action driven by anger and bad decision!

"Major-Major" Pageant Talks

Miss Universe 2010 - I must admit that I was one of the hopefuls who watched the Pageant with so much excitement. Hubby and I were having a vacation here in Port Canaveral near the Kennedy Space Center and late evening is TV time. Since it was shown live in an evening show, we just watched it. Actually, we just focus watching the pageant when Miss Philippines was named as one of the TOP 15 finalists.

I was so proud especially when she was named as one of the TOP 10 finalists. Honestly, it was my first time to see her on TV. I do not have a subscription of any Filipino Channel so, I am not updated with Philippine news. She was pretty and the body was truly WOW!

Seeing her on TV and named as one of the Top 5 Finalists in the Prestigious Search for Miss Universe 2010 was totally great! My fellow "Kababayan" did so well on stage! She made it to top 5 from 83 women!

Then, came the unforgettable Q and A portion. She was the last finalist that was called and she drawn the name of the handsome William Baldwin. After she gave the answer, I convinced myself that she will make it to top 3. I know, I made a fool out-of-myself thinking she will. SIGH! Yeah! She blew her chance to be the next Miss Universe. BUT....

Should we blame her for what had happen? She was over-confident, some say! For me, maybe she was star-struck with the judge! Her answer was trending in Facebook and Twitter! I read all the nasty and harsh criticism, even below the belt!

Maybe, we Filipinos expect too much of her. That was her BEST and she was happy with Top5. We believe that she can do better than what she had shown to the world. She MIGHT BE but, what she did is good enough FOR HER and that was HER MAJOR contribution to the country.

What have we done to our country? Filipinos should move on! Just make a deepest SIGH and move on! (SIGH) and yeah ... don't frown .... just LAUGH out loud and move on! LOL

Sunset in Florida

Here I am again, taking pictures of the blue sky. Clouds fascinates me and I can't help but, take these pictures. While having a road trip to Florida, it took us 12 hours to travel. We stopped in most of the rest area. The weather was so bad also! Sunset came and we are still 4 hours away from Orlando. We decided to stay in a hotel for the night. I took this picture from the place where we stay. It was truly awesome!

Yoga: Stiff Neck Remedy

For the past days, I stayed home most of the day. I was having a migraine due to stress from traveling from Mississippi to Florida. We are moving and finding a property that we love to own is stressful. To change the atmosphere in the house, I watched Yoga video in youtube. It was interesting to follow though, it was an awkward try, LOL! I turned on my favorite music thru Pandora and just follow the instructions and steps on the video. Yoga is very interesting! It took away my tensions and stress. I was having a painful stiff neck for two days and I tried taking medicine. It gets worst every hour. I turned off the TV and turn my music on. Then, I browse the internet, looking for some remedy. It directed me to Yoga video again. Amazing! In 30 minutes, pain is gone! I might do Yoga as part of my daily activity. Curious? Google stiff neck remedy and you will be directed to a Yoga video in Youtube.

NMEDA Dealer

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of NMEDA. All opinions are 100% mine.

I have known about NMEDA in my twitter account. This company is a non-profit trade association which educate consumers to only buy products from a NMEDA qualified dealer. They do not sell anything but, they promote safe driving and safe equipment for disabled people. This company is a non-profit and all their members are required to adhere to the safety standards of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. All the NMEDA dealers are the ones who sell handicap vans and vehicle modifications for the disabled. The disability of a person is not the same. That is why, this company is trying to inform each family to be careful in buying a wheelchair. NMEDA dealers will conduct an “in-person” evaluation, so you can be sure that you are getting the right driving solution. If you get a customized wheelchair that fits your specific lifestyle and needs would be great, right?Remember that with NMEDA, they have dealers and quality assurance program dealers too. The Quality Assurance Program or QAP is the only nationally recognized accreditation program for the Adaptive Mobility Equipment Industry. This company have a systematic and documented approach to quality. That is the reason why their clients trust their product. Caregivers are tough job! I saw how they are committed in this kind of profession. By buying the products of NMEDA dealer, it can help the elderly or disabled get back onto the road of independence. For more information, just visit nmeda.org and check if you have a NMEDA dealer near you. Find out and eave a comment here!

High Condo Fee

We heard a good feedback from our realtor today. We tried to check the papers again and we found out that the unit we choose have a high condo fee. There were 5 condo units which we are interested and we put a higher bid on them. Right now, after weighing it hard, we decided to drop our offers to the two condos. We will just wait for the other three units to hear a positive feedback tomorrow. The property might be affordable but, in the long run, we will end up losing too much because of the high condo fee. I sent a widrawal email to our realtor now.

New Blog

I have been thinking to focus on blogging lately. As you can see, I have 4 blogs right now. Today, I made a blog titled MUSIC&INSPIRATION which I will be sharing my favorite songs. It will be about the music of my life and how it inspired me to live and love my life. I was watching EWTN channel at 2AM and it just dawned on me that each one of us struggle everyday. We felt pain and misery. Rich, famous, poor and outcast, all of us suffer. Looking back, I made a decision to stay happy and contented despite of the bumps of life. Did you know that when I am sad, I listen to sad music? Then, I reflect to the lyrics. I will cry then, I am refreshed! Yeah! That's odd huh? But, it gives me a positive outlook of life. Check my blog Okay? See you all there.
