Cagayan de Oro City Fiesta 2010

These are the random pictures taken by MARICOR AGONCILLO during the Fiesta celebration in Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines. Every August 28, the city celebrates the Fiesta in honor of St. Augustine of Hippo. If you want to see more photos of my city, visit cagayan-de-oro.com. I live in this city all my life. During Fiesta, my mother and I always visit the cathedral church first, watch the parade, go to SM and see if there are FREE concerts. Aside from that, we love to buy something from the display of different products either in Lim Ket Kai area or in Divisoria. The picture above was taken in SM. Crowd gathers in SM mall to see a LIVE Show from Manila performers. The picture below was taken at the grandstand. I usually do not go here because the crowd is really like this every Fiesta who watched the final performance of the participants of the parade. Huge crowd, hot and muggy environment!The picture below is the float of GMA. Usually, the participants of the parade are big companies in the city, selected agencies and schools.
These balloons are common products of the vendors during fiesta. I saw this too in Louisiana and Mississippi during Mardi Gras Parade, would you believe it? It is a good business here and I bet, the balloon vendors in CDO did farely well. I love the picture below because it is very colorful. It can be use as makeup artist business cards, don't you think?

Happy Fiesta CDO!

Awesome Clouds

I love taking pictures but, since I have my BB, I am too lazy to use my digi cam. I know that the picture quality is not as good as the camera, I use this gadget because it is handy and the download is real time. Almost anything that fancy my interest, I would go and snap a picture.
Such example is the cloud. I am not the only one who are crazy about clouds. There were so many out there who even join a group and blog about the clouds in the sky. i might join in the future though, who knows.
I took these pictures while we are traveling with 50-70 mph on I-10 and hubby was driving.Cloud formation is awesome and I find serenity just by watching it.
I took this picture in Orlando after the rain. As you can see, there's a ray coming from above it looks like a mist. It's just thin clouds actually and it looks so refreshing after the rain.

This was taken on a sunny day with 96 degree temperature. It's always a scorcher if the temperature is like this. Hot and humid and the clouds further started a darker cloud formation. As we drove 15 minutes, rain started to pour so hard. Nevertheless, clouds can be awesome and scary at the same time.

Dual Electronics

I always love to watch the latest advertisement about cars on TV. Everytime there's an ad, I had this kick of admiration regarding the latest gadget inside the vehicle. Would it be nice to drive a good looking car with high tech gadget and excellent features? Based in Heathrow, Florida, they just released the latest mobile reciever to the market industry. The XDMA6630 features built-in bluetooth technology and also have a direct USB connection for iPods and iPhones. This Dual Electronics offer a wide selection of mobile electronics and is a subsidiary of Namsung America, Inc. This reciever is compatible to a Windows Media, Apple and Bluetooth. It has a high speed functionality and of course, the convenience of having a bluetooth connectivity. This gadget is also good for marine electronics and home audio loudspeakers. When you buy the XDMA6630, external microphone is included to boost the sound quality especially when you use it for calling purposes. If you are using iPods and iPhones, you can recharge your device simultaneously using the front panel USB connection. It will give a direct access and control over iPods and iPhones, and what would this mean? It would mean a total car entertainment experience!

La Quinta in Orlando Airport

When we decided to buy a property in Florida, we stayed from one hotel to another. La Quinta in Orlando Airport is one of the best hotels which we enjoyed staying. For a fraction of price (thanks to the coupon I took from the REST AREA), the room is GREAT because it was CLEAN. For me, cleanliness and hospitality really matters.

Copying Others Posts and Pictures

I have a link in my blog which gives me a rundown of which pictures and texts were being copied. I am glad that readers found some topics that I wrote interesting enough as a resource. Most of the pictures posted in this blog is the property of the author. If you want to use them, kindly give credit to my blog which I would really appreciate much.

When I started blogging, I research for inspiration and guide via internet. I did pay serious attention to plagiarism which I learn from school and it is considered as STEALING one's privacy. If you copy others writing word for word, that is plagiarism. Take time to give the whole credit to the author to make it right. If you copy and paste then claimed that it's yours, it is not RIGHT and it is a mortal sin in BLOGGING industry!

So, make the effort to find inspiration from your surroundings. Time will sharpen your style of writing and it will be easy to write as it flows flawlessly from your system. Have a good day!

I love to eat! I can eat anything that fancy my taste buds. Back home, I can't live a day with out a hearty meat dish on my meal. That would simply gives me the energy for the whole day at work. That routine changed when we live in Mississippi. We had a free lunch in my workplace and we had variety of food to choose from. At first, I was so amazed to see all my favorite foods and sweet tooth cravings on display. Yet, as weeks passed by, I begun to pick only salads for my lunch. My choice of food works out fine because until now, I can't live a day without vegetables on my meals.


The fun part is that I can live with out meat dish in a day! I love greens and fruits which are healthy foods. I really did not make any effort to love vegetables in fact, I just love to eat "vegie". I am not a health conscious person but, eating vegetables makes me more healthy.

Bad Brighthouse Service

We moved to our new place two weeks ago and the internet is still not hook up. Would you believe it? There were more than four guys going in and out of our place and they can't find a good signal. The supervisor said that they need to rewire it and they will just ask permission from the HOA. Last Thursday, they got the permit and all they have to do really is do the rewiring! My husband called them everyday and each time, someone else handle our case. My husband was so pissed and he canceled the internet connection! Now, I left hanging! I'm totally disappointed! It would have been better if they will inform us that they can't do the connection! Everyday is a RUN-AROUND! Brighthouse service is totally frustrating!

No Internet Connection Still

Blogging is dragging for me lately! I have so much to share but, the cable company can't find an internet connection in my location. So, I still do not have a connection which is a TOTAL BUMMER! The company said that they will come back on Monday and rewire everything! I missed paid post offers already! I am using my USB Connect from T-Mobile to get an instant internet access but, I got lazy to blog using this gadget. I will be back to blogging actively as soon as I got my connection!

Internet Connection is Out

We have no internet connection today and I feel so bad because I still have few opportunities to hurdle. I end up rejecting few of my opportunities to give way for others to write it. When everything will be in it's place and internet connection will be normal again, my blogging life will be happy again. I could not do anything right now but, wait. I am using my Web connect right now but, it's so awkward and impossible to finish all my task. I am so disappointed right now!

Passion Profiles by Haagen-Dazs

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

Two months ago, I visited a friend in LA who loves shopping and outdoor activities. Actually, we became good friends for years because we shared the same passion for food-craving, clothing style and singing. I really had a good time especially when we visited Disneyland. She bought dulce de leche classic flavor, a Haagen-Dazs ice cream which is her favorite. Then, she told our friend to take her pictures as she posed with the ice cream. She was so funny and full of life! It was because of her that I was able to purchase a magic microphone which contain 4,000 music that I can sing-along. My greatest passion is listening to music and having this gadget means a lot. I miss my College Glee Club moment where music is part of my daily life.

Econo Lodge in Cocoa Area

For two weeks, we booked four different hotels as we waited for the closing of the property we bought somewhere in Florida. The picture below is the poolside in the hotel we checked in for a week stay in Cocoa Beach. This is the view when we are in our room. We never gets the chance to swim though because the weather is a scorcher. That is why, on the next hotel, we should dive in and enjoy the poolside. This is ECONO LODGE in 3220 N. Cocoa Blvd, (US 1) Cocoa 32926 phone: (321) 632-4561.This area is nearby Walmart, Publix and other major stores. It is also centrally located to every direction such as Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, Cocoa Beach, Port Canaveral, NASA (Kennedy Space Center) and Patrick Air Force Base. I definitely recommend this place. We only pay $32/day plus FREE hot breakfast. Not bad huh? Suggestion: Get a coupon in the rest area, call and compare what's in the coupon book. Sometimes, what the front desk tell you is cheaper than what's in the coupon book. Don't book online! If you travel to FLORIDA, get a coupon book on the rest area or tourist area, get a good deal at half a price. That is TRULY a good deal!
