Archive for June, 2006
I took this photo two weeks ago along the Manila Bay, near the Manila Yatch Club. The photo clearly shows the elegant Manila scrapers as well the the yatchs in the foreground.
This was taken on a dark, rainy Sunday afternoon. At about 3PM. You may be fooled to believe that this is a black and white photo. But its not. This photo was never altered, nor changed from colored to BnW. Really. Notice the tiny glass windows of the tower, they still retained their color. 
This is how dull Manila skies last week. Gloomy, no trace of sunshine.
I took this photograph two weeks ago when I went to Pampanga. I got this from the flower garden of my uncle in Dau, Mabalacat Pampanga.

I have yet to finalize my travel plans for July. I might go to any of the two promo destinations of Cebu Pacific, or feel the cool breeze somewhere up north, or swim my way down south…
Surprise, surprise!! =)
This is the third time that I received an unsolicited e-mail globalknowledgeph.com. This is the third time that I have reported them to their ISP, and this is the third time that their ISP ignored me.
Try to check the full message headers yourself, and see where the message originated:
I am encouraging each and everyone of you to please READ, understand, and SIGN the petition urging the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) to stop the further defacing of our heritage churches.
Petition text reads below:
Today, the Grand Old City of Maynila celebrates her 435th year.
Manila, for many is dark, dirty, noisy, and simply it lacks what ti takes to be an international city. For me Manila, is a city rich in cultural heritage. With all its beautifully crafted buildings, and monuments. In Manila one will find one of the country’s largest Chinatown. Where gold jewelries are being sold side-by-side with dumplings and fried siopao.
In Manila, you will find the coutnry’s original freedom park: Mendiola. And where can you find a Philippine city with two Basilicas? Only in Manila: The Quiapo Church and the San Sebastian Church.
Manila never ceases to amaze me. It’s like a kaleidoscope. There’s always something new when you take a peep into it.
How about you? what are your thoughts about Maynila? share your thoughts here by posting it in Comments.
Thank you
Sparks started to fly a few months back. But the magic dust just started to flicker a only few weeks ago. Everything started in this place. Large lamps stand side by side with heavy chains.
It all started here. You should know that.
‘Twas raining hard. and I was not even supposed to be in this place. It was guts who pushed to me to brave the rains.
Thanks for everything. Madamo gid nga salamat. Daghang Salamat kanimo.
Do you know that at one point in time, our country has the most beautiful airline livery? Can you still remember those coloful Cebu Pacific Airline’s DC-9′s aircrafts?
I have been scouring the Internet for some interesting airline liveries, and here are some of my finds. Quite interesting, from a muslim-inspired artwork, to Olympic Games, World Cup down to….cartoons?
