Project this 2011..

Last year 2010... No! Before 2010 pala, I was inspired by a friend to take some 365 photos and post it in Flickr. It is called "Project 365". I started it, however, I was not able to continue doing it. Maybe because I was so busy with work and I just had a dilemma early that year (2010).

I really like to continue it this year but it's already mid-year right? And my excuse this year is that I am so pre-occupied with my baby that I always forget to bring my camera. Yeah. That's my lame excuse. Haha!

Oh well. Earlier while I was outside, smoking (yeah, I smoke), I thought, maybe this is the right time to continue "Project 365" but instead, it would be like "Photo of the Day" or "Project 365 and a half". Haha. I'll think of a better name for this project.

It would be one of my goal, to finish, the half of it this year.

Bye the way, this project is actually taking random pictures of just about anything under the sun everyday for the whole year. One picture for a day. Just like what I said parang "Photo of the Day" type of project. One can tell his/her story about that photo or let the photo speak for itself. :)

I'll start July 1. For the meantime, I will just start editing my template and watermark/signature, so my pictures would have uniformity.

I am so excited in doing this. :) Wish me luck though. I want to make this happen. :)

John "Pulpol"

Haha!
John calls me Honey P.. And according to him, it means "pulpol". So I also call him John P.. :D

My bestfriend, May, and I used to chat before in mIRC (2002-2004 I think). Accidentally, she had a chatmate who's living on the same village as ours. They decided to meet up in front of our house. May met her chatmate Logie. He is with his two friends Joerge and John. (they're brothers) After that meet-up they (May and Logie) never spoke to each other again.. However, after a few weeks, someone texted me. It was John. He decided to get to know me and asked me to be his date. I never said yes because I had a boyfriend that time.

When my ex-boyfriend and I broke up, I coincidentally bumped into John. We started texting and he started to ask me to go out with him again. John and I dated since 2006.  We have been boyfriend/girlfriend for 4 years. A lot surpassed us. As in UPS and DOWNS. Major major! :) However, as I said, we surpassed all that.

I thank the Lord because, inspite of my attitude and nega outlook about life (yeah that was me before), He still gave me a blessing. It was John. John is loving, caring, responsible and God-centered. I couldn't ask for more. He was able to change me and made me look at things/life positively. He is also patient with the kind of attitude I have. He changed me for the better.

Our lives changed when I discovered I was pregnant. At first, I didn't want to marry him yet because, I know I can still live happily without getting married. He can support our baby and we can still be "US". I also don't want to push him through getting married and I don't want to end his life as a single. I knew he wanted and still wants to do a lot of things. However, he personally talked to me and told me that he is already sure, that he wants to marry me. We talked things over. And I said yes. (Not the typical marriage proposal I had hoped for though, but it's okay. What matters is WE LOVE EACH OTHER).

Now, we already have Johann Lexer. He is such a blessing, an additional blessing for me. Also, little by little, there is a change in John. I noticed that he is more responsible now and the love he gives us, is doubled. He still appreciates me even if I'm not that glamorous or beautiful as before giving birth. He gives time to Johann. He would wake up in the morning and play with Johann. Even before he goes to work, he still does play with our baby. I love him for being a loving and responsible father to Johann.

So....

Mahal, sinasabi ko to sayo palagi.. Na mahal na mahal kita! Thankful ako na ikaw napangasawa ko, na ikaw papa ni Johann, na responsable ka, na mapagmahal ka sakin at kay baby. Kung may ulirang ina.. meron ding ulirang ama, at ikaw yun. 

Aalagaan kita hanggang tumanda tayo.. at hanggang mamatay pa at mapunta sa kabilang buhay. Masaya ako na nakikitang masaya ka lalo kapag kalaro mo si baby.. Pinapakita mo padin na mahalaga kami kahit na pagod na pagod ka na sa work. 

Wag ka sana magsawa sa pagmamahal na binibigay mo din saamin. 

I Love you so much mahal. I Love you din daw sabi ni baby.. :)

Happy Father's Day Mahal kong John Pulpol.. hehehe.. :)

Questions to Ponder..

Well, since I was bored, I googled some stuff which I already forgot since I googled a lot. One of those things I opened was random questions you've never thought of asking. When I read those questions, my reaction was "oonga noh?!"

Well.. These are the questions from this website;

        1.Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist but a person who drives a

                race car not called a racist?

        2.Why is the man who invests all your money called a 'broker'?

        3.Do bald men wash their head with soap or shampoo?

        4.What hair color do they put on the driver's licenses of bald men?

        5.Why are the obituaries found in the "living" section of the newspaper?

        6.Are one handed people offended when police tell them to put their hands up?

        7.How can sweet and sour sauce be sweet and sour at the same time?

        8.I thought about how mothers feed their babies with tiny little spoons and forks

                so I wondered what do Chinese mothers use? Toothpicks?

        9.If Fed Ex and UPS were to merge, would they call it Fed UP?

        10. What if you're in hell, and you're mad at someone, where do you tell them to

                go?

See what I mean? hehe..

Red Moon

It was reported earlier that tonight we'll have a "Red Moon". It is also called "The Total Lunar Eclipse". It is also said to be the longest lunar eclipse for a decade.. When I went outside awhile ago around 11:40pm, it was very cloudy. However, everytime the moon peaks, the darkness brightens up. Ang liwanag ng moon ngayon. Full moon pa!

I wanted to watch the moon while waiting for the Red Moon kaso the mosquitoes kept on biting me. I had to go inside and put alcohol on my legs and arms.. then put Off Lotion, (mejo nahuli lang) hehe.. But I will definitely go back outside in awhile.

In the reports, it said that it will be the longest right? It is because it will start 1:00am (June 16, 2011) and will end 7:00am na.. Plus a friend of mine, posted in my FB Wall;


Penumbral eclipse begins: 1:24 AM
Partial eclipse begins: 2:22 AM
Greatest eclipse: 4:12 AM
Partial eclipse ends: 6:02 AM
Penumbral eclipse ends: 7:00 AM
Thanks Mona!

Anyway, when I went outside kanina, I took some shots. Here are some of them..

Look how cloudy it was kanina? Well, let's see later if it would still be this cloudy. By the way, those shots were taken around 11:40pm June 15, 2011. The ring around the moon was kinda reddish nadin.

Later around 2am, I'll go outside and check the moon once again. I'll take photos and I'll post them here. I hope it's not too cloudy. Wish me luck! :)

Okay.. so when I went again outside around 3am, these are the pics I was able to capture.. :)

Look how reddish dark the surroundings during the Lunar Eclipse.. Creeping me out..

Ladies and Gentlemen.... The Red Moon.. :)

It's so amazing to witness this kind of eclipse. I was able to capture it pa! It's just so frustrating that I wasn't able to capture it using a better camera.. a DSLR cam is what I mean.. I've been wanting that for a long time.. However, I still thank my Sony Cybershot T300 for these amazing pictures! :)

Where you able to enjoy the Red Moon experience last night? :)
