Stories in pictures


Trip to tagaytay with Jong's family. Grace, his cousin
took this photo. Pre-trip before Pagudpud adventure.


I just came from a business trip in China. I have been eating
roast duck,roast pork and anything that is hanging there...
not a bit healthy but it was good while the trip lasted! yum!


Day after my birthday when Frank Typhoon hit the country.
There was no classes the next day, so, my sisters tagged
along and joined my meetings. We all had happy tummy that night for
dad's birthday dinner!


Pong the turtle who just grew big throughout the years
was granted his freedom to roam around the garden. He would
show up once in awhile but have not seen him since.


Joyce playing with my camera and insisting that she
took a really good photo of me while I am talking on the phone.
She even insisted that I take a similar picture of her.
I was lazy. Sorry Joyce.


Bianca's puppies are getting bigger everyday.
here's one of the four playing with jacy's lace.

my day


libelula:dragonfly(Spanish)

I just got home from 2 job sites today.

My day was pretty good,the clients were cooperative and so far the craftsmanship of the workers are far better than i expected. goody! I was just so sweaty and sticky. So as i reached home, I took a cold shower,feels so refreshing! I changed my "meeting attire" to a more casual tank top shorts mode. My phone rings....the furniture pieces at my Fort job site just arrived,later than expected. (at least it arrived,so coordinated with Mr. foreman who's overtime pay I have to settle tomorrow) After 2-3 succeeding calls,explanations and instructions I decided to change my shoes. (no connection here,but i was talking as i am looking at my full length mirror) I was wearing a pointy one,does not feel right, so,i changed it into my light blue loafers that i have not worn since i don't know when.It feels alright, so after my cologne spurt and some lotion i went back down to my little office.

So here I am typing away (while wishing that the deliveries are successfully delivered to the 7th floor of the ever so strict condominium) while waiting for J.

A cheap but good Jap dinner awaits.

hmmmm....i pause

Decided to upload the dragonfly picture I took. Reminds me of my best friend. She's almost 4 years gone (just physically) now. Time flies.getting older soon.Just steadily waiting for the next chapter to come.

I smell dinner. Roasted chops.

Raves

Recently all my posts have been rants about work,traffic,Manila and what have you,so maybe just for a quick change, I will write about some "raves" that has been happening.

hmmm...blank mind as of the moment...

Okay,I just got back from China with my clients. 6 wonderfully stressed days. I have my own suite,a more than enough allowance and a handful of new mandarin words to add to my measly vocabulary.

hmmm... I have 4 new projects,3 residential, 1 clothing store all under negotiation,but still good because 3 other projects will be finished this month.

ahhhh..I did a pretty good investment plan for this month.

I found my perfect working table,can't wait for it to be shipped,from where? from China of course!!! hehe

Summer is over, planning for some trips again,where? i don't know yet so many places so little money. But something is brewing again.

hay

I have not been doing Art for months now.
I'm waiting for Vincent for the nude sketching schedule.
It would be really nice not to think about straight line,balance and harmony at the moment.
I would appreciate,chaos,spontaneous free flow of lines and weird ideas to come to me now.
i hope everything I'm currently doing will turn out fine.
please.

Romancing the North,Ilocos Norte,Pagudpud







Just came back from Ilocos Norte. The 15 hours road trip was worth all the backaches after reaching our destination. Though the weather was cloudy because of the typhoon, we still had a great time.

It was really a WEEKEND hibernation and a clever idea to run away from ever stressful Manila even for a few days.

now...back to work. weh.

NAME


How can the meaning of my name affect who i am?

Maybe because i was stuck to it since the day i was born.

Because of that,the name became a permanent part of me.



There are 5 letters in your name.
Those 5 letters total to 16
There are 2 vowels and 3 consonants in your name.

What your first name means:

PolishMaleVariant of John. In Roman mythology; Jana was the wife of Janus.
PolishFemaleVariant of John. In Roman mythology; Jana was the wife of Janus.
CzechoslovakianFemaleVariant of John. In Roman mythology; Jana was the wife of Janus.

Your number is: 7

The characteristics of #7 are: Analysis, understanding, knowledge, awareness, studious, meditating.

The expression or destiny for #7:
Thought, analysis, introspection, and seclusiveness are all characteristics of the expression number 7. The hallmark of the number 7 is a good mind, and especially good at searching out and finding the truth. You are so very capable of analyzing, judging and discriminating, that very little ever escapes your observation and deep understanding. You are the type of person that can really get involved in a search for wisdom or hidden truths, often becoming an authority on whatever it is your are focusing on. This can easily be of a technical or scientific nature, or it may be religious or occult, it matters very little, you pursue knowledge with the same sort of vigor. You can make a very fine teacher, or because of a natural inclination toward the spiritual, you may become deeply emerged in religious affairs or even psychic explorations. You tend to operate on a rather different wavelength, and many of your friends may not really know you very well. The positive aspects of the 7 expression are that you can be a true perfectionist in a very positive sense of the word. You are very logical, and usually employ a quite rational approach to most things you do. You can be so rational at times that you almost seem to lack emotion, and when you are faced with an emotional situation, you may have a bit of a problem coping with it. You have excellent capabilities to study and learn really deep and difficult subjects, and to search for hidden fundamentals. At full maturity you are likely to be a very peaceful and poised individual.

If there is an over supply of the number 7 in your makeup, the negative aspects of the number may be apparent. The chief negative of 7 relates to the limited degree of trust that you may have in people. A tendency to be highly introverted can make you a bit on the self-centered side, certainly very much self-contained . Because of this, you are not very adaptable, and you may tend to be overly critical and intolerant. You really like to work alone, at your own pace and in your own way. You neither show or understand emotions very well.

Your Soul Urge number is: 2

A Soul Urge number of 2 means:
With the Soul Urge number 2, your motivation is centered on friendships, partnerships, and companionship. You want to work with others as a part of a cooperative team. Leadership is not important to you, but making a contribution to the team effort is. You are willing to work hard to achieve a harmonious environment with sensitive, genial people.

In a positive sense, the 2 Soul Urge is sympathetic, extremely concerned and devoted. The nature tends to be very sensitive to others, always tactful and diplomatic. This element in your nature indicates that you are rather emotional. You are persuasive, but in a very quiet way, never forceful. You are the type that makes really close friendships because you are so affectionate and loving.

If this number is over-emphasized in your makeup, you may be over-sensitive, with a delicate ego that is too easily hurt. You may be timid or fearful, too easygoing for your own good.

Your Inner Dream number is: 5

An Inner Dream number of 5 means:
You dream of being totally free and unrestrained by responsibility. You see yourself conversing and mingling with the natives in many nations, living for adventure and life experiences. You imagine what you might accomplished.
