Saint Claire Church Katipunan

Yesterday I had a horrible gut wrenching day. Work was gettting to me and a lot of complicated matters also was happening. I just could not bear it anymore. I admit I am not much of a church goer, but I don't think I should be burned in hell for that. Since I was in the midst of total breakdown. I decided to go to Saint Claire Church with friends. I guess in days where I could not handle it anymore God was there.

I guess professionally it was really draining and frustrating. I do pray a lot. I guess I needed one at this time. My intentions are real, I wanted to have a great family life, a fabulous career, and a simple love life. I think I have a lot to thank for but sometimes when you hit rock bottom, you think you are in the worst situation in the world. You think nothing is going to be better. The trip to the church was a silver lining, the right thing to see when I needed it most. I bought eggs as the usual offering and hoped it does help a lot of hungry kids in the convents. I think that was the right thing to do, it felt good. It has been a long time since I said thanks to God, I hope that trip eventually would get me and my problems easier to bear. I guess it did, I hope it does help in times when I need it most. Sorry for being mushy all of a sudden, I need a lot of help now. Thank God he's always there for me. You should go to the same church too and make it a habit to help. It will do wonders!

The Good Interiors

My brother just informed me that we would be renovating the house soon. We would be sharing the bill of course and the changes would be really major that it would not just be the walls to be torn down but the whole house. Yes, my brother is thinking of creating a 4 floor house from the current 2 that we have. This is not a joke!

I am probably going to spend more on interiors and will probably wipe out my savings. But I guess since this is my home I would probably be better off paying for it because of the fact that I live here. I probably would be here for the rest of my life.

Designing the interior should only get a few inside because we both adore the modern minimalistic look. With that in mind, we would need to get our old hand me downs and get better modern dining tables, chairs and cabinets too. I looked at some web sites but only a few came up with the best Italian designs. We used to have an all wood dining set but the season calls for modern metal dining furniture. I guess we are on a good start, but I have to make plans where to get the rest of the finances that is going to this huge project. We would need to also get a condominium and vacate the place we are in. Construction starts late this year so wish us luck!

The D60KREW PACO Photowalk

It's high time once again and we are going to do another photo walk courtesy of my photographer buddies at D60KREW. Here is the route proposed:

I am not quite familiar with Plaza Dilao, nor know where that is but I think there would be some additional instructions how to get there. Wait, they just posted it now... it looks like we will meet in a more familiar location which is Pedro Gil LRT Station. Then ride a jeep from there and get dropped off some few kilometers from there. Apparently Plaza Dilao is just three short blocks away from the corner of Pedro Gil and Osmena. Now where is Osmena? LOL hahahaha

I think I know how to get there now... I'm gonna charge my batteries now so it could last the whole day. I'm sure with the caliber of the guys the actual 4GB memory card is not enough for this walk. I'm gonna bring Trish and her sisters (my D60 and her lenses) Kit and Ziggy. I now have names for my gadgets so we could be better acquainted. =) Kit is the mighty kit lens (18-55mm VR) and Ziggy is the new one 70-300mm APO DG MACRO with built in motor! I got her expensively but I really think it's worth it! =) Love em all!

They Love The HP In Me!

I am already full of music and movies downloaded by my masters. I don't really mind but the full 80 GIGABYTE is already screaming for more storage, but I still get it to function really well even if they need to do hard graphic work in photography and gaming. I am an old ATHLON processor driven HP Pavilion.

My day to day battle with music and movie downloads and does not end there because they also use me for Internet browsing. They needed me for a couple of projects and thesis work and I did not even bat an eyelash to continue working for 72 hours straight. I printed out on my cousin's mouth (HP D1600) that day about 400 pages of spreadsheets and documents but he did not even get tired. I on the other hand never had problems on processing in the printer spool so everything came out fine even if they used other programs. I am glad they all went for my HP family and never took any other brand. Our designs and size are sleek and appropriate for my owner's home office. I never looked like clutter at any given day. I wonder what will happen to me soon when they need someone faster than I am. Maybe when the time comes I will be recommending my other relatives like the HP Mini Note so they can easily carry me around and use wireless signals for their work. Good thing they can use $30 off orders $150 or greater at HP Home Store. This is available if you use coupon code SV2132. This is also only valid through 10/31 or while supplies last. Restrictions and exclusions apply. I love my owners because they love the HP in me. I love them too!
