the lighter side

For us bloggers (hmmm am I not amused I now belong to this group! ), almost anything we think good we try to make our sites known, am I right? I just “stumbled” upon something which may interest you. It’s a blog directory
that provides exposure for your blog, and for FREE!
You just [...]

It’s now a few days past the celebration of the famous Masskara Festival here* in Bacolod City, the City of Smiles, yet I have not posted anything about it, haven’t even greeted here the people of Bacolod on the occasion of their happy event *sigh*. Is this how busy I am? Sadly, I could say, [...]

As a sequel to my previous post:
October has been designated National Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness Month (at least, in the United States), thus making the topic relevant. But this SCA is a very expansive medical subject, and I intend not to discuss this from a medical point of view (where I have nil knowledge of) [...]

I have enjoyed my blogging, though I consider myself blessed with a techie brood (my techie son and daughters!) who do the techie stuff for me like webhosting. However, there are many of my friends who are looking for this kind of service, as they are now aware of the benefits of the internet to [...]

In a previous post, I said I’ll show later the architecture of Litomerice (”in another post: The Architecture of Litomerice … in time please”), and so here are some of their quaint and charming buildings, crafted with much meticulousness, as in other European designs of old!

The first church at the intersection. The spires are very [...]

When we are in the internet, we usually meet interesting people or sights or news. I have opened the site of Hector Kabande, a hotel executive who has developed his love for food and cooking since his student days, and is known for his passion for hot peppers…ugh! This is interesting. Before I would not [...]

As I stated in a previous post, that I’ll be back with the pics, so here they are:

There you are! Two mothers ages away, but of course not for comparison, but as a reminder to moms that they should take heart as Mama Mary, our top model of motherhood, also went through all the joyful [...]

This afternoon, a sister in the community had problems over her son who is applying for a job. So many requirements are to be met like, to mention some, the medical examination plus the x-ray, clearances as the NBI, police, even drug test, etc. And she was short of cash. These are hard times financially, [...]
