<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Last January my family and I went to Solsona for a brief vacation. We were there to unwind and to let the kids witness the town fiesta.

They were just babies when they first had their vacation there. Then the next visit my daughter was just about to turn three years old while my son was almost 7 years old.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Some parts of the river are shallow. In some parts where the water meanders, it collects into deeper parts and provides pools deep enough for bathers.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love to float gazing at the blue sky or let myself sink to the river's rocky bottom. I can't feel the same thing when I'm at the beach. The idea of swimming by the beach seems to scare me, what with all the sea creatures that may try to take a bite <span class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="e9aa351a-1f45-441b-a18c-8b8fb2515780" id="309371df-d983-4c8d-9700-e7c996d8b9a8">off</span> me!</span></div>

i've been trying to curb my temperament. but it usually gets set off by other's lapses, irresponsibility, and dishonesty. those things ticks me off!<br />
<br />
i am trying to tie outbursts by letting time pass for a while, so both sides can think and see things better. and it not only angers me but it really makes me sad when people will stand up for lies and bad behavior.<br />
<br />
how can those people not see?<br />
<br />
everybody's got a bad side. but when your job (bus employee) is tied to serving people (customer service), you must have the presence of mind not to muddle your outlook (where onlookers or potential customers will surely look at you in a bad light) or your service to customers just because some co-employee (mechanic, would like to have his/their vacation) ruffled your feathers. Or some customer you served earlier ruffled your feathers. You are not excused to dump your stresses on any customer.<br />
<br />
i noticed that some female employees of Fariñas Bus at the Manila terminal have adopted haughty attitudes that you can't help but give them a taste of their own medicine.<br />
<br />
i was able to observe some of the drivers and conductors. they communicate with customers/passengers nicely. and that was how the drivers and conductors were when i was still a student. they are not mayabang at all. if only all of their employees are as nice as the bus drivers and conductors. those female employees needs some relaxing team building activities perhaps. they are ruining their employer's business, what with all the high key tones! they can't even say sorry and pasensiya in a humble manner. they say those words in high keys as if they expect the offended customer to accept such bad attitude because they are employees who can attend to you or not.</div>

Please help Nini get stronger and to avail of the medical procedures that her family cannot afford. Her doctors say she can't be operated on in her current condition, she's too weak to even sit. She's now a mere shadow of her stronger self like in the picture which was taken last holy week 2013 when she and her cousins (she's the one in the red shirt standing on the bamboo raft) were catching shrimps from a relative's fish pond.<br />
Your help or donation will go directly to her medical expenses. You may also visit http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/for-nini/x/6462416 where a funding project was started for her. Thank you so much!</div>

even the newly opened mountain pass from Solsona to Apayao. I want to post how

<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love the morning breeze and the fog that envelopes the town and its barrios. Bucolic.

<span style="background-color: white; color: #003333; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A cousin gave me copies of some photos that I asked from her. I was awed when I saw in some of the pictures that fog still envelopes the town in the early morning. The air at such hour is so cold, very fresh, your exposed extremities get numb and you may even get the chills. It is at this hour that a short dip in one of its rivers or streams is best. The water may be cold but it totally refreshes you and gives just the right shot of adrenaline to power you up for the day! The water that nourishes the town flows from mountain streams. In some places you can still dig holes beside riverbanks, let the water settle and get clearer, then you may drink the water from your small well right there. The water tastes sweet and refreshing, yes, it is still clean.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #003333; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The people in my town are very hardy, more so the barrio folks. They farm well and they know how to make use of their environment efficiently. They gather freshwater shells from the rivers and stream. They cook these into unusual but yummy dishes when fish is hard to catch and the harvest is low. They may use kaingin in their farms but they plant trees not only for subsistence but also for shelter. I believe that an increasing number in migration and global influence are somehow causing a difference in my townmate’s ideals. A lot of them are in a hurry to catch up with the rest of the world. Some are not aware of the grave consequences that their efforts to improve their lives has produced.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #003333; line-height: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I was sad when I last visited my town.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #003333; line-height: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I get emotional whenever I am in the open field. I love open spaces. I love breathing in the fresh air, more so of my town. I love to look at the green fields, the meadows, paths criss-crossing streams into the woods, wide rivers whose waters turn from crystal clear to green and to deep blue. Brooks sing in my hometown, the sound of the water sound like melodies to my ears. I get so happy just by gazing at streams slicing farmlands, even in irrigation ditches and canals (built by the local government and a Japanese construction company). If you are an outdoorsy person you will understand what I am trying to say here.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love how nature is in my town, I just hope that the quarrying, illegal logging, and other practices that are accelerating its environmental destruction will abate. I hope that the local officials or NGOs will see to it that the town’s natural environment be saved. I am hoping too that reforestation and saving the water sources, as well as saving the river shorelines from too much dredging and quarrying be given immediate consideration, before it’s too late...</span></div>

like agates are healing stones. It is claimed by practitioners that it can help
cure heart ailments, circulatory system problems, fertility, headaches, reducing

problems, fibromyalgia, in helping one reach his or her ideal weight, depression,

other agates, stones, or pearls (red agate, green agate, blue agate, amethyst,
tourmaline, etc.). The baby pink color of rose quartz softens the eyes and it
exudes a sense of calm, content, and confidence. It soothes your emotions. Some
may attribute this to rose quartz being known as a healer of emotions and it
“encourages” a strong bond within the family or between emotionally related
individuals. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-PH">Even Emma
Stone (American actress) and Linda Evangelista (TV star and former top model)
use rose quartz stone to massage across their faces three times a week “. . .to
give their faces a more contoured look and to dramatically smooth fine lines
and wrinkles. The lymphatic drainage is
also apparently stimulated when you use the stone, detoxifying the skin, and
reduces the puffiness in the face and around the eyes. The rose quartz stone
can also be used to relieve stress in the facial muscles which seem to accumulate
as we age.” You can read more of this at </span>h<a href="ttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2513760/Can-29-rose-quartz-banish-wrinkles-Emma-Stone-Linda-Evangelista-think-so.html" target="_blank">ttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2513760/Can-29-rose-quartz-banish-wrinkles-Emma-Stone-Linda-Evangelista-think-so.html</a>(accessed on 4 December 2013).<span lang="EN-PH"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

agate bracelets which comes in cute boxes. Agates are fine grained microcrystalline
variety of silica, mainly variegated chalcedony. They are found in various kinds of rocks but they are more associated
with volcanic rocks. The stone’s name was given by the Greek philosopher and
naturalist, Theophrastus. Theophrastus
discovered the stone along the <st1:placename w:st="on">Achates</st1:placename>
<st1:placetype w:st="on">River</st1:placetype> (now called <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Dirillo</st1:city>, <st1:state w:st="on">Sicily</st1:state></st1:place>).

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">These stones are
also used for stomach upsets. The agate can't change emotions, but helps to
change the level of acceptance of the emotion. Like when you are very sad the
agate will “let you know” that this will pass and help you get on to another
and better day. This is why the Agate is considered so powerful as it gives us
the strength to carry on. Carry an agate when you have to make an important
decision.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

and that's the most awfully cute title i've ever used for one of my posts! i forgot to add a title when i posted this and i just added it this morning. :) I know it’s been almost a week since the last post.

I’ve been trying to find these watches, çoz I really like the leather bracelets and the bracelets look really leather sexy if there’s such a term! You can wear them in class, to dates with your special someone, to dates with the friends, family dates, or just for going around!<br />

The gift boxes makes it easy for you to just hand it over to the one you would like to give it to. No ribbon making and gift wrapping hassle to stress you out. And the receiver or buyer can reuse the box for trinkets, anything that you would like to store in it, or just to use it as display. The watch may come with a free extra battery, until battery supplies last.<br />

I sell the boxed watches for Ph180.00 only if you would like to pickup the merchandise near Makati or in the Makati area. If there is no need for shipping I may be able to give another small discount. If shipping is needed and the fee is not that much I may be able to send it without shipping fee. But if the shipping fee is really big I may let you pay for it.
You may haggle with the price of any merchandise. Thank you and have a nice day!

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Like pearls, jades are cool accessories. You may use either in formal to casual occasions. Those who believe in the healing power of jade wear them each day. It is also believed that jade brings prosperity and good health to the wearer.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I used barrel shaped real jade beads, white Swarovski crystals, 10K gold balls, 10K gold tubes, 7mm thick 10K gold wire, and a short strip of 5mm thick 10K gold wire to attach the 10K gold lock to the 7mm gold wire bangle support.
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The soft bangle is made of real 10K gold from the wires to the gold tubes and gold balls. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You will know if a piece of jade is real if it is cool to the touch. The temperature of the surface it touches may be transferred to the jade but when it is released the jade will once again adopt the temperature of its environment (or it is once again cool to the touch). </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You may use the soft bangle at work, while out with your family or friends, or anywhere you would like to wear it. It is not like other flashy jewelry that can be used only in certain occasions. And it can go with any form of clothing whether you use it with rugged, casual, or formal wear. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Of all the materials I use in making accessories pearls are the ones I favour most. I love to make pearl bracelets in simple strings, as stud earrings, necklaces, or charm bracelets. No matter how simple the design is, if I use pearls the design attains a somewhat classy look. Look at this bracelet isn’t it classy?

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I used simple copper spacers in flower and tube design to let the attention remain on the lustrous pearls. To give a little hint of power, I added a tiny red agate to gather all the positive energies to the wearer.
Look at that bead! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I find wire wrapping a bit tedious, time consuming. I managed to puncture my thumbnail not just three times while wrapping some agate, too. I guess that’s some small sacrifice which often happens whenever I make wire jewelries. There are times when my thumbs and forefinger are sore enough from being bled for me to have a hard time wielding a pen or pencil. But I usually waive that awful feeling when I have to finish a wire project!
I accept orders! All of the bracelets comes in cute pouches! You may choose from, violet and pink (only colors available at the moment). Or you may text me if there are other colors available. I do meetups for buyers near MRT Ayala station, Greenbelt Makati, Glorietta Makati, SM Makati, even in Dasmariñas (bayan), Cavite

what's with Korean love stories?<br />
<br />
i grew up thinking that singkit movies (sorry folks but that's the term used by playmates and even old folks before, back at the small town where i grew up) and tv programs are not really good. they lack emotional depth. so when the K-pop invasion arrived i preferred to watch within my filmography comfort zone. but when another long weekend loomed and with nothing new to watch, i accepted an officemate's offer of copying some of her K-pop files. i tried to escape being branded mapili or arte kaya ayoko ng K-pop, so sige i said "yes, pa-kopya!"<br />

this love story is about two teens who met in the palace grounds during the awarding ceremonies for the Sungkyonkuwan graduates. the attraction between them grew, and it led to marriage, heart break, unrequieted love, political upheaval, treason, murder plots, death, vengeance, and divine intervention. enough emotional roller coaster to tie me up until i finished it in 3 nights!<br />
<br />
who wouldn't?<br />
<br />

articles that are supposedly written by masters in the academe and sometimes they are even working on doctorate degrees. I cannot fathom why their extensive

do not manifest and extend their effects in written knowledge. Not to mention that their views are hindered by bloated egos.</span></span></div>

I like to pass by Greenbelt (in Makati, me iba pa ba? heheee) in the morning not because of the high end shops(mga sarado pa at tingin lang naman! window shopping is free! heheee). I like to at least pass by the chapel and the park. I have included here some shots I took this morning. Great no? The well-maintained gardens look as if they belong to a weathy family's backyard. Well, in a way it is! The Ayala's own this place.</div>

I realized when we were there at the farm how hard it must be for the owners and the helpers to maintain the farms. Theres a lot of hard work involved lalo at they don't have the proper equipments. You can see from the pictures alone that they do most of the work manually. That should explain why buyers should not haggle so much for low prices when it comes to fresh produce. :)<br />

While we were in my husband's hometown there's not much to do so he thought of bringing us to her sister's fish farm. The kids were excited to go, it was their first time to see a fish farm where milkfish or bangus and big crabs and prawns are grown. Sister-in-law's(SIL) news though dampened their excitements a bit when she said they've harvested the last batch of bangus a month ago. And that SIL's husband has kept the farm's water level so low for the algae to grow (this means no riding on a raft or boat for them). The algae will serve as food for the next batch of bangus.</div>

But we were told that the beach is just a walking distance away so the kids were glad. At least they can hop to the beach. Or so we thought :(</div>

The way to the farm was beyond the town's arc, then we walked up a hill where private lots are used to groom fighting cocks. Beyond the hill is a 15-minutes walk to the farm.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a jade infinity charm, I knotted through the infinity openings the red synthethic leather strings. The green jade promotes good health, symbolizes and attracts wealth, and the red color of the synthetic leather connotes strength, power.</div>

I like it when sunlight strikes the beads, the beads reflect the sun's light like a prism. The other bracelets with white beads reflects the sun's light in a rainbow of colors! You should see it. :)</div>

To while away the time, I created some bracelets and a bangle made of 10K goldwire, 10K gold tubes, 10K gold locks, Swarovzki crystals and some class A glass beads (they are very clear and dazzle like real crystals) and charms like the infinity symbol.<br />
<br />
The bangle below was made with Swarovzki crystals, 10K gold balls, 10K gold tubes, a 10K gold lock, and a 7mm 10K gold wire to which I inserted the rest of the materials.<br />

This bracelet is made of jade, class A glass beads and nickel accessories. The charm pendant is the symbol for infinity or eternity. In oriental beliefs, especially to the Chinese, Koreans, Taiwanese, and even the Japanese (I think, or you may send your comments on this), it means "forever" or being constant or always. Like constantly in good luck, constantly in good health, prosperity or wealth is forever, and so<br />

I've been trying to make jewelries for about 4 years now. It began as a hobby to fill in my boring weekends especially when everybody is having an afternoon nap and its just too hot for me to doze off.<br />
<br />
Here are some of the things I made at the start of this year. I am trying to refine my wireworks. Actually I'm not even sure what to call the things I did. If they're wire jewelries or what. Just that I love doing these.<br />
