The Prayers

God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit Please come here to us and hear the prayers of my heart, our hearts

A Prayer for family and loved ones (relatives&friends)... Lord God, Our Father I entrust you my family and loved ones, keep them safe, in good health,  happy and blessed.

 A personal prayer

          for a loved friend... Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was a choice, but falling in love with you I had no control over...  now that you know I'm praying you will have a change of heart let it be me instead of her

 

          for work... Father I know you have a great reason why you let me get out where I was been working, I know you could see my hardship... and now I believe you will give a job that will make me happy, were I can show my talents and skills w/ out the phone and at the same time will still have great benefits

 Prayer of different  people... “Deliver me, O my Lord from self-confidence, self-centeredness, and self-consciousness. You be my confidence, and the center of my activities; and may I always be more conscious of your presence than of the presence or absence of others.”—devo

 Prayer for the Nation... Father hear your people, help our divided country, heal your broken land shower us with your love so we may live in peace, compassion, love, humility and bless each and one of us that we may do our part for this country.

Father it was been said that Prayer changes everything. Don't be anxious, pray instead. If God is for us, who can be against us? His Grace is sufficient. And you also said "Ask and you shall be given" and so I faithfully and whole heartedly trust you everything.. I/we believe in you. 

Amen.




You act, then follow it with prayer and believing, rest assured it will be answered.

First solo trip @Corregidor Island

Last May 28, 2012 finally I was able to fulfill one of my long plans and that is to be able to do a solo trip. My first solo trip was at Corregidor Island, which is in Southwestern part of Luzon Island of the Philippines.

I thought that going here alone is boring but I was wrong coz listening to the tour guide, keeping your eyes amazed looking around plus taking pictures will make you busy.. and oh I forgot grinding all those histories is enough to make you busy and think, so it was not boring after all.. its just a little bit tiring and exhausting (as in exhausting on how my bat cam got exhausted) walking under the tremendous hit of the sun. 

The trip started w/ a ferry ride from Manila bay to the Island, it leaves the shore at about 8:00am and it took us 75 minutes to reached the Island. During the trip as I wasn't able to eat well before the travel I feel nausea and close to throwing up fortunately I was able to control it, thank God we have reached the Island and the historical tour started w/ kuya Armand as our tour guide.

The trip thou is a bit expensive for a 6-7 hours day trip that cost P2300 for day tour but I could say its worth it..good thing I took tranvia no. 2 we had good tour guide. W/ this tour package it includes buffet lunch at Corregidor Inn, so I make sure that I full my stomach with varieties of foods that you can chose from. 

Probably next time I'll stay overnight but this time w/ friends because there are lot of activities that can do like trekking, camping, ghost hunting and other else. I did enjoy my solo trip and I Loved it.. it is indeed it's more fun (& educational) in the Philippines c",)

Who said stewards are for planes only, Ferry have too.

Tranvias

Its is said that Corregidor is shaped like a "tadpole"

Food trip, good vibes w/ good friends

It was a night of exploring, bonding & food trip, when me and my bez gal Quel Aguilar had a dinner at Kape Pilato Bistro cafe suited at San Marcelino st. Malate Manila. It is one of the budding restaurant that offers International menu but at a very affordable price.

We had large Sisig pasta that's actually already good for 3-4 persons, it is said to be one of their best buy + we also had their Herb chicken sandwich w/ fries on the side that's also good for sharing. They have varieties of delicious drinks and I tried their Mango Basil Iced tea, I may say its good. And well what's the best way to end your meal but to try their sumptuous desserts and we had banana crepe w/ sweet vanilla ice cream, yum yum. We had a very good one, full not only our tummy but also our eyes as dinning in this place is as if you're in Makati or Alabang, the ambiance is nice. In addition if acoustic is one of your thing well they also have acoustic band every Friday to serenade you. Sadly they were not just able to play my request.

Nevertheless I give this restaurant a two thumbs up!

Mango Basil Iced tea, P70

Herb Chicken Sandwich, P140

Sisig Pasta, sml P170; lrg P270

Banana Crepe, P95

After a wonderful night w/ my bez, my food trip didn't stop there as it continuous comes Saturday morning. It was one fine morning when me, mader Irna and Chris shared a day together and had breakfast at Salcedo Village Market.

We endulged our selves to varieties of foods we bought, as in it was a food trip. We had pasta, siomai, Ilocos empanada, some desserts and large fruit cold drinks to complete the meal. 

However more than of great food is good time, good conversation w/ great company w/ bez and these two.
