Kung Hei Fat Choi!

Kung Hei Fat Choi! Or if you want, Xin nian kuai le!
Our family celebrates Chinese New Year - a simple celebration just to welcome  another year of prosperity and good luck for all us (since we are a part Chinese too). I always get excited and wow-ed with the fruits, the Tikoy, hopia and many other rituals that we are doing to celebrate. It was always been fun and awesome, but not just that... We are also fond of having something new for the house or following some Feng Sui rituals.

Last week my friend sent me an email related to Chinese New Year. It's all about Tantra Totem, it may guide us throughout the year of the Water Dragon. So, I think I should share it to everyone. This is really inspiring and I hope you could share it to others too! Happy Chinese New Year!

Tantra Totem

The following is a Chinese Good Luck Tantra Totem.
You may not believe in this but the advice is great!

One. 
Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

Two. 
Marry a man /woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other.

Three.
Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.

Four.
When you say "I love you", mean it. 

Five.
When you say, "I'm sorry", look the person in the eye.

Six.
Be engaged at least six months before you get married. 

Seven.
Believe in love at first sight.

Eight.
Never laugh at anyone's dreams. People who don't have dreams don't have much.

Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.

Ten.
In disagreements, fight fairly. Please No name calling. 

Eleven.
Don't judge people by their relatives.

Talk slowly but think quickly.

Thirteen.
When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, "Why do you want to know?"

Fourteen.
Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk.

Fifteen.
Say "bless you" when someone sneeze.

Sixteen.
When you lose, don't lose the lesson.

Seventeen.
Remember the three (3) R's:
Respect for self;
Respect for others;
Responsibility for all your actions.

Eighteen.
Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.

Nineteen.
When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.

Twenty.
Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice.

Twenty-one.
Spend some time alone.


Send copies to those people you know and be inspired.  :)

Montalban Waterpark and Garden Resort

A 15-20-minute ride from Commonwealth, Quezon City, Montalban Waterpark and Garden Resort is one of the nearest relaxation spots where you can swim and enjoy peace and quiet time (given that it is not peak season). Entrance fee is P250 and they allow guests to bring their own food and drinks. There's also a convenience store near the entrance that sells everything from charcoal to rice and other things you might need to grill, cook, or eat; and of course, toiletries, most importantly. Cottage rental amounts to P700-P1000; if you are a group of  20 or more people, there's a pavilion available for rent that can accommodate that much. They also have an area where you can conduct seminars and other events such as debuts, weddings, birthdays, etc. You can also use the videoke for P900 (or if you can haggle, you can only get it for P700) and it is good for use during your entire stay, so you better get your songs ready and lined-up. Their restrooms and shower rooms are impressi

Ang Liham ni Andres Bonifacio kay Ka Oryang

1897  Mayo  1 Mahal kong Oryang, Andres Bonifacio at Gregoria de Jesus photo from the web Mali ka. Hindi kita nakasalubong upang sa dulo ng kalsada, ako ay liliko sa kanan at ikaw sa kaliwa. Sapagkat saan man tayo dalhin ng ating pakikibaka, ikaw lang ang aking itatangi at makailang ulit na ihaharap sa pulang bandila. Hindi tayo nagpalitan ng kwento upang sa pinakahuling tuldok ng pangungusap, ang karugtong ay alingawngaw ng katahimikan. Walang pagod kitang aawitan ng imnong pambayan, Oryang. Hindi kailanman ako mauubusan ng salita upang maialay sa iyo bilang mga tula. Maging ang bulong at buntung-hininga'y magpapahayag ng pagsinta sa tulad mong umiibig din sa bansa. Hindi tayo sabay na tumawa, nagkatinginan, at tumawa pa nang mas malakas, upang sa paghupa ng halakhak ay may butil ng luha na mamimintana sa ating mga mata. Loobin man ng Maykapal na pansamantala tayong magkawalay, tandaan mong ang halakhak at sigaw ng ating mga kasamahan ay sa akin rin. Hindi ka dapat masabi

Some might find it weird about how we juggle up on our interests. Some would say that there's always so much going on and some (might) find it interesting, too. Nonetheless, we just do what we love, what we are interested and passionate about and even the things we don't even know at hand hence trying out and its conversion. Interests, passions and talents turn to 'work' and eventually to crafts (well, whichever comes first). And same goes as what Tina Fey once said, "Your work is your craft and your craft is your art." How we care and hone our given skills and talents, as well dig into the deeper process on the things we are interested about (and even with those we are not totally into); then learning goes along with it.  Speaking of interests and different approach to ideas, medium and overall art... art galleries and/or museums are the best places to see the various aforementioned accessions.  I've visited different art galleries and museums
