Admiring Indian Sarees

I found some fashionable Indian women. What makes them astoundingly beautiful is the saree clothing they're wearing as part of their culture. I have seen world beauty pageants and no doubt, these Indian contestants look great in their national costume. I have seen a website that is entirely more about saree costumes and I even spotted on this green-colored saree image I included in this post. Interested? Find out more on Online Saree Shopping and find the best saree you can have. I am pretty sure you would also stand out like the stunning Indian woman in that Indian-inspired saree fashion clothing.

Oatmeal Breakfast

I am having my oatmeal breakfast now. I am getting serious of losing my fat bulges in my tummy. I am actually conscious with it that's why I am starting to trim it down. I just hope I can be successful in this quest and be happy for the result. Happy Thursday peeps!

Music I Love!

Ever since I was a kid, I was already a music lover. I can't forget how my mom convinced me to sing a Carpenters song entitled "Yesterday Once More". Though I sang it only at home and never got to participate in a vocal solo or in a singing contest, I still could say that I never ran out of tune. To date, I am still into singing. My friends and I even used to sing in videoke bars. It seems like in every music genre, I get to like some songs. By the way, I am now checking on a video at Youtube about royalty free music.

Samal's Finest

I had the chance to loiter along Samal beaches. To name a few, I managed to visit Blujaz Resort, Costa Marina Beach Resort, Fernandez Beach Resort, Paradise Island Beach Resort, etc. What I did admire about these beaches are the beachfronts they have. Apart from the cool air, the view of the white sands along the shoreline is so amazing. If you happen to be in Davao, try visiting Samal Island and get ready for an unforgettable adventure. You will surely love the place!

Interested more about Samal? Search for it at Google and be convinced.

Happy Fiesta Davao!

Yesterday, Davao City celebrated its city fiesta in commemoration of the feast of Saints Peter and Paul, the city's patron saints. Too bad, I wasn't able to visit San Pedro Cathedral Parish which I am sure was flocked with lots of patronizers. To all the Dabawenyos, Happy Fiesta!:)

Filipino Foods: Still My Top Priority Anywhere I Go

Thinking ahead, let's say 10 years, I see myself sitting in a couch in my small home in NC, too tired from work and resting. I turn on the TV, watch either CNN or Fox News, and then all of a sudden head to the kitchen trying to look for food. When opening the fridge, I see cakes, ham, bacon, and other foods from the supermarket - all of which would certainly take time to cook. Provided that I am really tired, I remember how I get to live my life in the Philippines with that same situation. From a tiring work in PI, I always love to eat the famous Kare-kare with Bagoong and Sinigang Na Baboy. I certainly would like to pamper myself with great foods whenever I am tired from work. Now I am thinking if this will be possible in NC if I'd hopefully be there in the next coming years? I even thought of having a sack of rice transported via FedEx if I just can't contain myself from eating foods available in the US. I knew there are some Filipino stores out there but I exactly don't know how far their locations are. While surfing on the net today, I got hooked to a certain website that offers free easy recipes online. At least I found some Asian cuisines especially Chinese recipes that will definitely suit my liking. Definitely, I'd love to try cooking those when I'd be on my own in NC. Most importantly, I also got the idea that I can actually order Filipino foods from that website with a flat rate of $4.99 as their shipping fee. I got excited upon browsing on what they got for Filipino food lovers like me. I saw Datu Puti, some sardines, and any other canned goods. Well, I just can't miss Filipino foods. They will certainly still be a part of me anywhere I go or wherever I will be.

My World on Twitter, Now in Progress!

I really don't know what Twitter is all about. All I knew is I got an account but never get to update it until this famous thingy became the most talk about in town apart from Facebook. Logging back on Twitter, I came to familiarize it. Good thing there are some who followed me on Twitter especially my blogger friends (thank you so much!) including Senator Mar Roxas whom I followed first. Right now, most of the Twitter accounts I followed are those of Pinoy celebrities. It's also nice to be updating myself on Twitter since this has also been connected to my Facebook. Any Twitter update I have will also update my Facebook status. Funny cos nowadays, I have been hooked to these two accounts. Now I have my own Twitter world online, come follow me!:)

Painting, I Love!

I used to dislike paintings. For one, I am no good at it. When you give me crayons and any other coloring stuff, I can't make a good image out of it. When I was younger back when I was in high school, I can remember admiring someone who's good at it. I even wished I can be like her or at least get a fraction of my brother's skill in drawing and painting. I thought I'd forever dislike paintings. One time in college, we were invited to an exhibit that showcased the works of a Davao-acclaimed painter. And voila! His works were great! Paintings were even presented in a gallery somewhere. That was how I came to appreciate the great works of art done in painting. Right now, I stumbled on a great site by a famous painter named Cao Yong. I was deeply mesmerized by his creations! I got stunned by his "Voice of the East" creation where it appears like live in my eyes. I never saw such painting as great as his. No wonder he's been hailed as the Official Artist for the 2008 Olympics. Because of his great works of art, now I could say that I am rekindling my love again for painting. Whoa, painting I love!

Davao Continues To Bloom

Davao City, which is located on the southeastern part of the Philippines, continues to bloom. Investors keep on coming giving rise to new projects in the city. Even tourists never cease to visit Davao despite some hearsay that some fears to visit the place because generally, Mindanao is in chaos and Davao is one part of it. Publicities about our booming city are always mentioned on national television. I got the chance to roam around the city a few days ago. The Ayala project named as Abreeza located along J.P. Laurel Bajada, which is exactly in front of Redemptorist Church, has started building the skeletal structure of the building. I could see heavy equipment trucks going in and out of its main gate supplying the materials needed such as cement and bars. I also got sight of men wearing hard hats. Apart from the much awaited Ayala Project, Camella Homes also started building their Northpoint Condominiums, still along J.P. Laurel Bajada. I can't vividly get a sight if the construction of those condos have started since the property itself has a long entrance. I can see some workers though. Projects such as Abreeza and Northpoint Condominiums are really helpful to our booming city because these projects are huge projects. It will make Davao become more progressive in the future. By the way, I have seen the architectural design of those two mentioned projects and those are really impressive. I knew the building makers for both Abreeza and Northpoint Condos will be like Las Vegas concrete as they work on those projects until its final completion, making those impressive architectural designs a reality. Well, what can I say? Davao really rocks!
