Life is Like a Wheel

Life is like a wheel. Everyone will agree. From day to day there are different encounters. Different events. Different places. Different people. All are riding in the wheel of life.

Transition

Wheel on June-28-10

Two days left and President Noynoy Aquino will be taking his oath as the new President of the Philippines. It was really fast for this man. Who would have thought that he will be the next president?

I just thought just now that he and President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo have something in common. What is it? Both their parents were also past presidents of this country.Idol ko si Ma, Idol ko si Pa. Mom is my idol for Noynoy while Dad is my idol for Gloria.

Every Filipino is hopeful for this transition. I am praying.

New rooms

Wheel on June-28-10

Finally, we have decided to have our second floor be built by December. We are trying to think positive as possible. We are projecting more cash flow. Everybody is excited. You know, having new rooms in the house means furnishing it. One thing that is always present in the room is a television! Can we also squeeze in a budget for a flat screen TV or just settle for the old style and do it with good tv stands instead? Well, having a small cabinet for a TV stand could save some space. But, I want my room to be spacious as possible and I really do not like cabinets anymore. Okay, I really want a plasma! :)

Favorite fish

Wheel on June-22-10

I could not remember anymore when was the last time that I ate galunggong, it is a kind of mackerel fish. Today, we craved to eat it again together with lots of tomatoes! I have fond memories of this fish because my sister and her friends used to eat at our house. This fish is their favorite. Today, it will be our favorite again.
This fish is also a part of Philippine history because it is considered before as the indicator of our country’s economy. Imagine that! The rise and fall of its price would also mean that our economic situation was improving or not.

What is your favorite appliance inside your house? Let me guess. It is the LCD TV, am I right? Watching TV is a hobby of many. Thus, the term couch potato was born. Thank you to technology that watching TV is now more enjoyable because of the new TV designs.

We do not have our own LCD TV yet. Maybe by December, we will finally be able to buy one.

Romantic night

Wheel on June-22-10

Garden weddings are popular. It is the month of June and many couples are tying the knots during this month. What is with June, huh? Oh, I forgot to greet my cousins who celebrated their wedding anniversary last June 12. I was very young when I attended their wedding. I went directly to the reception which was held in guess what? A garden. It was a romantic night. The outdoor garden lighting set up added beauty to the occasion. Indeed, it was unforgettable, especially to the newly weds.
