Pay It Forward




hmmm.. time for us to PAY IT FORWARd, weve been blessed with so many things in our life in the past few years and we, (Computer Engineering Class of De La Salle Lipa BATCH 2005) tried to share our blessing to the children of SOS.
From my classmates in college, some shifted course, some went offshore to try their luck - to my instructors. ALL of us, shared their blessing to the children of SOS VILLAGE.
From the pet talk that i had with some children, I realized how lucky we really are for having recieved the love and care of our parents, friendship of friends and companions of officemates.
Even if we spent only few hours at the village, we saw thousand stories.I saw 3 children sitting together at the bench and i found out that they were siblings and their parents abandoned  them! the 6year old girl is the oldest and she's carrying the 3year old boy while the 4year old girl was sitting beside them looking at other children and she seems afraid of being left behind by his siblings and afraid to mingle with other.
I saw a 7year old boy wearing eyeglasses with a super thick lens. I didnt ask him the grade of the eyeglasses but by just looking at it, its seems like is over 600. At such young age he's already suffering from nearsightness or farsightness and yet Im complaining for getting 150 agtimatism and grade.
We are indeed fortunate, we just dont realize it until we see someone who's lest fortnate than us.
Heres my share of pics. I LOVE THE CHILDREN OF SOS.

Aquria, Playa Calatagan

Image
It's a long weekend na naman, kaya we have decided to lay down on the sand under the sun. My skin is still tanned and havent been recovered from yesterday's outing with my family in Lipa and yet again we have this biglaang lakad. We went to Aquaria last Sunday as we thought that we would be able to enjoy the solemnity of the place but I was wrong. Forgot that since it's a long weekend, a lot of people will be on leave as well and will rush to the beach for the last few weeks of summer. We didnt bring a car for I wanted to learn how to commute to Calatagan  (sometimes it better if youre lost - that's my fav tagline) and I also thought that it is just a piece of cake since we will be coming from Batangas. BUT I WAS WRONG! PLEASE WAG NIO KAMI GAYANIN! hahaha! Since we came from Batangas, we had a hard time looking for a route going to Calatagan. Unlike those that will be coming from Manila, I think there's a direct route going to Calatagan. As per my res...

TAAL BASILICA

Image
hmmm... Im from Batangas  that's why I always have the chance to go to the Asia's oldest church which is St. Martin de Tours of Taal... but one day my boyfie and I decided to climb at the Tore of Taal church.. at first I didnt like my bf's idea since Im really afraid of heights but we still decided to try it just for the heck of adventure.. twas creepy, I mean the way up.. coz its too old, too dark and the old stonewalls look like weak and will break anytime! I heard some bats as well and the smell wasn't that nice.. but definitely the view from top was indeed breath taking! You can see the entire city of Taal, the market and the Municipality. Its kinda windy as well so its not really advisable to stay that long since it doesnt have fences. Before you can go there, you need to visit the main office so they could have you assisted by their guards or sakristan since it's not really safe. Then a little donation wont hurt your pocket, I guess. We gave 50 pes...

Image
Hiyaaahh!! It's ber month and Im back on backpacking and beaching mode! Oh yeah, nobody cant stop me from exploring every niche of the PI.. :p   This time, I went to Northern Mindanao with my solemate and his friends. First, we went CDO for the white water rafting - see next blog. The morning after, we went straight to Camiguin. From Cagayan de Oro, we went to Agora Market Terminal to catch the first trip to  Balingoan Bus Terminal. From Balingoan terminal we took a tricycle (10pesos each)  to the ferry terminal bound to Port of Benoni in Camiguin. Fare is 170 PHP / Terminal fee is 2.50pesos and travel time is 1 hour - 1 and 45mins (depends if it is a fast craft or not)  The 5am ferry that we took was not! We arrived  Port of Benoni at 6:45am :(  Recap: Cagayan de Oro  to  Agora Market Terminal (Bus bound to Butuan) Bus to Balingonan Bus Terminal    Ferry to Port of Benoni Camiguin Sunris...
