Fiery Sky

Oh no! Another one of my sunset photos, this time taken on a Saturday afternoon at home. This rarely happens because I am not usually home early Saturday afternoons. I finish work at 5pm and get usually get home around 6:30pm after I go get some grocery items.

No date here, I had to crop the photo to remove the clothes hanging in a clothes line further down 3 houses from us 😀

Simple Pleasures

Let’s say we forget every stress, in whatever form and shape that comes our way and indulge in SIMPLE PLEASURES that we can enjoy alone. This is much like what we want to do during that Extra Hour where we spend “me” time.

The Weekly Question #9:

What are the 5 simple pleasures that will give you, well, simple pleasures?

My answers:

Enjoy some candies all by myself (almost possible).

Have time enough to watch the sky change colors during sunset (possible).

Have time (and energy) for a leisurely morning walk. Once a week would do 🙂

Have time enough to finish a book without forgetting the plot or the page. (almost impossible)

Walking barefoot on the sand. This can evolve to a HHWW (with swaying arms) with hubby. Now this is probably a long shot but still, a simple pleasure.

Napakagandang pagmasdan ang luntiang kapaligiran. Hindi masama ang pag-unlad kung ang kapaligiran ay hindi nakalimutang pagyamanin.

It is lovely to see a green environment. Progress is good but caring for the environment should NOT be forgotten.

Ngunit tila bagang madalas ang tao ay nakakalimot sa responsibilidad na nasa kanila, na nasa ating kamay ang pag-aalaga ng kalikasan.

But oftentimes, people forget that the responsibilities are theirs, ours, in taking care of the environment.

Kelan ba talaga tayo matututo? Magtatanda? Kapag may mga buhay nang nawala? Narito ang isang larawang mas malaki, medyo nakakasilaw lang sa liwanag, hehe.

When will we ever learn our lessons? When there are lives lost? Here is another photo, a bigger one of the same place but its a little bright.

Birthday Celebration

We have just discussed about that EXTRA HOUR and most of the answers were to be spent this hour for themselves.

Now, since this is my birthday week, I would like to focus my question on thoughts related to birthday celebrations. So the Weekly Question for this week would be…

Litratong Pinoy: Balingkinitan

litratongpinoy1.gif

Ang tema sa Litratong Pinoy ay BALINGKINITAN. Sa madaling salita, ang ibig sabihin nito ay mala-bote ng Coca Colang katawan, hindi yung 1.5 or 2 liters ha dahil kahit may pagkabalingkinitan iyon, medyo may kalakihan (natatawa…)

The theme for Litratong Pinoy is Sexy, Slim, Curvaceous, Voluptuous or any word that means “sexy”. In other words, it means a body that looks like a Coca Cola bottle, not the big one that comes in 1.5 or 2 liters though.

Ito ay isang usaping ayaw ko pag-usapan dahil ako ay hindi na ganito ngayon. Oo, alam ko, isa yan sa batayan ng mga karamihan sa pagiging presentable ng isang babae pero hindi naman yun ang tanging batayan dahil ang puso daw naman talaga ang importante. Pero siyempre, puso at kalinisang loob ba ang gagamitin kung kelangang magsukat ng bagong damit at walang kumasya dahil puro sa mga mapapayat lamang ang kasya na mga tinda? Hehehe…

This is one topic I would rather not talk about because I do not look that well unlike before. Yes, I know, that being that is one of the characteristics that people find in women as desirable although it is not as important as having a good heart. Of course, on the other hand, it is not the good heart and kind disposition that will be measured when buying new clothes especially when nothing will fit since most of the clothes are just for those who are slim. Hehehe…

Hay naku. Eto ang aking interprestastyon sa balingkinitan, lalagyan ng mga ilalagay sa pizza. (Dito, makikita ang ibang larawang kasama niyan, isang Bloggers Food Trip sa Trinoma.) Gusto ko ang mga lalagyan kasi me kagandahan naman ang disenyo. Pero siyempre, gusto ko din kung saan ilalagay ang mga nasa loob 😀 (kaya nga hindi na balingkinitan eh)

Sigh. Below is my interpretation of the word, containers for pizza flavors. (You can see some more photos here which I took during a Bloggers Food Trip at Trinoma) I like the design of the containers, But of course, I also like where it will be put 😀
