Crossed!

After overloading my body with too much cholesterol and fats (two slices of rich creamy cake, one cup of mango ice cream and five spoons of pancit malabon) during Ate Fely's birthday, I felt I was on the verge of purging, so I suppressed myself from getting another slice of mocha cake by drinking one glass of water then went back to my place to....uhmmm...contemplate.

Then read an intriguing line which sent a tremor to my already exhausted brain...Oh God why I am so ugly????

So crossed these past few days, disgruntled towards petty issues that even a bloody telephone ring could irk my flimsy mood. Sometimes I feel so disgusted with my surroundings that no amount of sweet, creamy yogurt could mollify my displeased spirit. I tried clearing the mess in my table to release the monster pang in my mind but I only ended up exhausted.

Everyday I have to smile and laugh to attract positive vibration, but beyond my laughter, I know everything is not all well. Each night, I would read books to keep myself busy and for the past five nights, I  wrote the family tree of King George III of Britain and King Christian IX of Denmark and their descendants up to the fifth generation to divert my thoughts elsewhere and to momentarily forget the disappointment I felt.

Too many useless thoughts, yet fewer resolutions...too many questions...too little answers...Now maybe I should stop asking God why...

My First Travel Abroad!

Image
Got a taste of real life adventure outside the country! :-D Back in my high school years, I often wondered what's on the other side of the continent, how people lived, what the environment looks like, the culture, the food, the lifestyle and the feeling of being in a completely different place. So I dreamed of going to another land, not necessarily to work, but to satisfy my curiosity and explore new learnings and experiences. Then one day, a good friend, Maribeth Galindo, coordinator of the social science division at UIC, told me to join their group for a leisure trip to Hongkong and Macau after summer break and because my passport will about to expire early next year with no single stamp yet from the immigration, I wasted no time and agreed. For the next three months, I became preoccupied with our itinerary plan, listing down everything I could think for this trip, I also did some research on different tourist spots around Hongkong and Macau and what public transp...

San Pedro Cathedral, stepping on Theological history

Image
San Pedro Cathedral, one of the largest Catholic Churches in Asia, made another history with its newly refurbish altar and tabernacle. The grand renovation, which partly done in Baroque architecture, has a stunning contrast of Gothic and Renaissance designs ushering both Theological and modern influences. This is quite interesting since only few Catholic churches in the Philippines so far use Baroque architecture. The structure is furnished in Auburn color accentuated with panel of Gold shade with emblems of Eucharistic mystery. The tabernacle has a luminous ray of Sapphire and Cobalt blue combinations.       The Cathedral's roof structure is designed like a boat symbolizing St. Peter's humble beginning. According to the Holy Bible, when he was handpicked by Jesus Christ to be His disciple, he was still Simeon, the Fisherman, Jesus then renamed him Peter and was later on selected as the "rock" whom Christ built His church. St. Peter became the first Pope, thus, all P...

Great Schemers

Image
Kate Middleton and her mother, Carole Middleton, can be compared to Sir Thomas Boleyn and his daughter Anne Boleyn. Both great schemers. But unlike the Middletons, the Boleyns were aristocrats. THE BOLEYNS During medieval period, being linked to a King or a future King is like acquiring a large Estate, it would also enhance their standing in the society, so parents pushed their daughters so hard to be near to the royals. Sir Thomas Boleyn was exactly one of them. When his two daughters, Mary and Anne, were growing up, he made it clear they would be hovering around royalty. He sent both his daughters to the French court to be trained as Ladies-in-waiting.  When Anne returned home, she became an accomplished and well-educated woman ready to become a mistress of a King. Her father and uncle, Thomas Howard, the 2nd Duke of Norfolk, moved forward to place her in the English royal court, they introduced the young Anne to the notorious King, Henry VIII. Anne first served as...
