it just sink in...

My mother was with my sister now and I am so happy for her because I know that she deserves a comfortable life with my sister. Her life right now is too far different from her life here in the Philippines. 

Am not sure when she will set foot here in the Philippines again. 

It just sink in that I do miss her... Her embrace... her motherly love.

Hope she will have the best days of her life there...

While browsing some images on Google site, I stumbled upon this one particular picture that awakens my patriotism to my beloved country, Philippines. 

The mere sight of it makes me wanna go on time travel where contentment, unity, and simple but happy lifestyle is in the heart of every Filipino. And since I really love this pic, courtesy of Google images of course, I made this as background on the certificate I've made for the Cultural night in our local barangay.

♫ I'm leaving on an airplane... don't know when I'll be back again... ♪

Yes, she'll be leaving tomorrow and this separation anxiety somehow overwhelms me. This is the woman who have pushed me to the top, to be where I am right now. She disappoint me, inspire me, nag at me, cared that much for me... she's everything. She's my Mom and I love her very much. I know she will be happier for she will be reunited with my other sisters in US.. Hopefully, she will have the best days of her life. This is the fulfillment of her dream and I have no enough power to give her such this kind of opportunity.

Over the years, the lives of millions of people have improved because of progress and innovations that have been made in buildings. It has made the world a better place to live. A large variety of homes has been constructed that have provided people a safe and comfortable building in which to be. Businesses have become more productive over the years as well. As improvements have happened, life gets better.

Appliance Improvements

Homes have received numerous changes within the last 50 years. While many homes have received renovations, updates and improvements, such as kitchens and bathrooms, there have been noticeable changes. One of the biggest ones is the large and small appliances that are used on a daily basis. Although the style and design of many have changed, many function the same way. However, many large and small appliances are energy efficient. Therefore, when appliances that are energy efficiently are in use, each one does not use as much energy as compared with older models. Energy bills can be much lower as a result of appliances that are energy efficient. Air conditioners and heaters have become much more efficient. After all, each work works to heat or cool a home or business, but the money that it costs to operate each one is lower as compared with older ones that still operate.

Construction Improvements

Technology and human understanding has progressed significantly. What was thought to be impossible a few years ago is now possible because of technological breakthroughs. Therefore, businesses and homes are much more efficient. Building material that is used to construct and office or home are constructed in ways that allow facilities to last longer. Materials like steel tubes, drywall, wooden beams and other similar supplies function well to keep a building working efficiently on a daily basis. In fact, many people take it for granted that a building should run efficiently as a result of the construction improvements that have been made. 

Companies, contractors, engineers, scientists and many other individuals have made important contributions that result in quality products being made available for new projects being done all over the world. Although there is a cost for quality products, the money spent can be absolutely worth it. A quality building can provide people with the peace of mind they need in order to be effective citizens living in countless communities in the world today. 

With the on-going war among nations, specifically what happened to Syria, I could only wish for this prophecy to be fulfilled in earliest possible time...

It's my 34th Birthday and I truly had a blast starting with the surprise party given to me by my former advisory. 

I am deeply touched by my student's thoughtfulness. These bunch of ''kids'' can either make or break your day. They can be rude at times, they can be seems irresponsible, immature BUT they have this tendencies to melt your heart, to make you cry, to make you feel special.

These bunch of ''kids'' are just kids who maybe deprived with so many things in life yet they manage to stand and stay strong. Their behavior may seems unruly but when you try to get into their heart, there you can find an ailing soul, a broken heart, a disturbed spirit.

These are the bunch of ''kids'' who needs more understanding, more patience and more unconditional love...

If you try to get to know them better you might see what I saw in them, and you might feel what I felt for them.

That is why I love them very much and I am so proud to say that somehow my love for them was equally reciprocated, not just for today but everyday.

AND YES, I consider them as "kids" because they need more guidance.

To them, thank you for making my day!
