My husband and I share the same birth month. He is exactly a year and 15 days older than me and he will soon turn 3-5! Two weeks until then! I’m not sure why I always get more excited about his birthday than mine. Celebrating the day of his birth has always been meaningful to me.

My son and I attended Canon’s Be Inspired with Canon Creative Park event last Saturday at the Top Shelf in Bonifacio Highstreet.

Unlike other events, I did not find any familiar face in the crowd. But it was going to be a busy time for the little guy and I anyway, so we did not mind. My son helped himself with a lot of things as the program went along. He especially helped himself as he went back and forth to the buffet table.

Father’s Day will be on June 20, 2010. That will be less than three weeks away.  While we cannot deny the reality of the epidemic of missing fathers, we should nonetheless celebrate fathers who have stood up as the head of the family that they are purposed to be. If truth will be told, a whole bunch of fathers are but taken for granted.  Just because they are expected to provide and protect their respective families, they should be left unappreciated.  Methinks fathers should be appreciated and affirmed more by their loved ones.

The New Me
(Words and music by Jeffrey Aspacio, Copyright 2009)

Verse 1:
My old self
T’was a selfish life
So full of inner strife

I followed my path
Searched for riches and pleasure
The ones that I thought would last

But, I was wrong
What took me so long?
The world’s invitation’s so strong

It wasn’t too late
T’was part of my fate

Pre-chorus 1:

What good would it do
To get everything you want for you
And lose the real you?
So I made the change and now declare this to you!

Chorus 1:

I’m loud, and proud
‘Coz the new me has come
And the old one has gone

I’m loud, and proud
It feels good to be new
So liberating and true

I was lost, now am found
All those things in the past
I have left them at last

Yes I’m loud, just so proud
For the new opportunities
It’s great to just be the new me!

Verse 2:
What used to be
From it, I’m free
What joy it has given me

I followed the Path
Gained true riches and treasures
The ones that would truly last

Now everything’s right
I’ve seen the light
The NEW ME is shining so bright

It isn’t too late
Believe and have faith

Pre-chorus 2:

What good would it do
To get everything you want for you
And lose the real you?
So go make the change that’s what I dare you to do!

Chorus 2:

Be loud, be proud
‘Coz the new me has come
And the old one has gone

Be loud, be proud
It feels good to be new
So liberating and true

If you’re lost, you can be found
All those things in the past
You can leave them at last

Let’s be loud, let’s be proud
For the new opportunities
It’s great to just be the new me!

For the new possibilities
It’s great to just be the new me!

Go and use Glutamax
And you’ll SEE THE RESULTS,
The New Me!

christmas 2009

If there’s one distinguishing feature about the Pinoy, it’s that they love a challenge. We have epic tales of Lam-Ang conquering various tasks and earning his place in the mythic pantheon of Filipino heroes. We sought our independence from Spain , from America and other countries that sought to subjugate us. In the 20th century we distinguished ourselves with EDSA 1 or the first People Power Revolution. After years of preparation, not only did we have an all-Filipino team conquering Mt. Everest , but an all-Pinay team as well after a few years! These real-life victories have been underscored with a sense of joy, achievement and pride.

We also have other characteristics that define us as a nation: the achievements of our inventors and artists. Through their creativity, originality, inventiveness, ingenuity, and innovativeness, they contributed in giving the country a sense of pride. Mr. Ramon del Rosario is the man we thank for the “karaoke”. Lea Salonga defined the title role of Miss Saigon on the West End and Broadway. Rafe Totengco conquered the hearts of fashionistas all over the world with his accessories, while Brillante Mendoza triumphed in Cannes for “Kinatay.”

Last August 20, 2009, dear hubby joined the Honda Challenge Cup, Drive Every Drop and landed first in their category. The category being, 1.3 A/T Honda City. I honestly was not surprised as I have always seen my man to join every game to win. From soccer to the ministry, he is a very driven man.
