• We TRAVEL not to escape life, but for LIFE not to escape us •

After that awesome family trekking spent my birthday the classic way. They didn't let me spent anything for my birthday and we just celebrated my day the way i wanted,simple and just family.

from my cousin SAJARA D. / ACE

The ff day we were so excited...another adventure awaits in Ginatilan Cebu (far more south)

INAMBAKAN FALLS Ginatilan Cebu

I love beach and waterfalls so my Tita Marisa's birthday gift to me are the adventures. This was the last adventure stop we did. The only difference was that my mom wasnt able to come with us she was so tired with the trekking so she prefers to stay at home.Though she regret she didn't 'cause she also love adventures and waterfalls.

♥ Life is tough, but you must be tougher ♥

.... TOUGH times don't last,but TOUGH teams do....

 T'was a very tough month... those butterflies in our stomach that day before our TL announced the verdict... 

Our first week during immersion was one hell of an adjustment...we need to apply what we have learned from training and we also have to adjust to our immersion TL and to the queue...we cant just goof around anymore and honestly we didn't liked it at first...though she was able to decipher what we want and she understood US... and i think that was her key for me to open my self and follow the path she has prepared for us... and we aren't hypocrites not to accept reality that it is what it is that we need to embrace..the PRODUCTION life...

i am both thankful and blessed they are my teammates and I belong to this team...forever be grateful and proud...

what we all have in common?? we may look very serious but we know how to spell F U N in our own awesome way... we magnify each others strengths...

browsing our pictures today and nostalgia hits me...i miss being around with them... though i know they're all just a tap away... and haha we still eat together during lunch :) and still find time to do what we always love to do after shift...EAT OUT!!!! which we cant get enough...a FACT

to our ever supportive TL Via and to our two sme's Elaine and Jap...i will always be thankful for the trust and learning's.... 

to my ever gorgeous teammates...let us all keep the fire burning... goodbye doesn't suit us...see you all around sounds better...

♥ ♥  meet team Via-an... ♥ ♥

ciao for now... more from them soon... 

♥ HER L E G A C Y ♥

Let me start this post with this...

Half of my youthful days i grew up watching her serving people...I can still remember she let me read her books and those were random books which everybody knows valuable for her... I grew up idolizing her..not just HER alone but everything about her...her dedication to her work to serve people...Her amazing love for KNOWLEDGE, gaining WISDOM and how she values EDUCATION...how she dedicate her self to people with grace under so much pressure... True that its human nature people only see someone's flaws not the strength one have... Though its the other way around for her cause i look her up so much that i was able to convince myself that not all politicians drown and blinded by their dirty works under the table...Im not being bias on this but i base this on how i saw her worked hard for the growth on this small barangay. Her ordeal and genuine passion for her work are visible when people walk around the barangay and saw the fruits of her service...

Some say those were not enough...but i say THOSE WERE MORE THAN ENOUGH... 

When i learn that she has to undergo some test,that she's at the hospital it didn't hit me at that moment cause i know she was a fighter and i just cant believe what she's going through and what she needs to overcome at that time was the BIG C...And most of all i knew for sure that God and Mama Mary wont let her suffer...Saw how she was as a devotee...I can say that she was one of God's good Samaritan to other peoples lives...It takes a lot to digest all of what I've heard that day... though after that night i saw her at the hospital bed she already passed away...As we mourn for her loss...I totally knew that angels in heaven rejoice for one of Gods angels are coming home with them...

People might not knew or even saw how she loves her family so much..though we know that now she's in heaven, she will be an angel to her children now...and she'll look up to them the same as how she guides and protect them before... ♥

I am so grateful as much as other people are...I wasn't there during her last viewing..but looking those pictures...t'was a testament on how grateful people are to her...Her allies and some might be a nemesis of her but love her for they saluted her before her cremation...

Looking back...she's still the same mentor as i could imagine...she's more than a tita to me...her legacy will stay...

She'll always stay as my idol...will still look her up...Gone too soon indeed but her legacy will stay...Proofs of her labor are visible on ones naked eyes which everyone in the family will be proud of...She may not be visibly with us anymore but we knew she's our angel up from heaven now..I still believe she will still guide her children and all those followers she left behind temporarily...

Last Wednesday night i was so amaze to learn that her loyal leaders,when she was still on her candidacy did a get together party...those members are a living proof how great she was...she was indeed a good leader to them cause even though she already left them,the foundation she built was way beyond what i could imagine as temporary...

Her story might already ended...and the chapters has come to an end...i know for sure that she's starting to make another good story above...

At the end of the day...all i can say is that we just have to be thankful for only God knows what's ahead of us everyday.... ♥
