It was a hot and sunny Sunday. We went to mass earlier so that we can go back home and rest earlier too.
Below is a photo of the church’s roof. The church is named Parish of the Holy Sacrifice and can be found inside the campus of the University of the Philippines in Diliman, Quezon City. This was designed by National Artist Leandro Locsin.
I took the photo while the younger children and I stayed outside in the garden during the mass. My hubby and eldest daughter stayed in the church.

Ano nga ba ang Tatak Pinoy o Tatak Pilipino? Tila wala naman yata tayong sariling tatak o pagkaka-kilanlan bilang isang bansa dahil sa mga napakaraming impluwensiya natin.
What is the essence of a Filipino? It seems that we don’t have our own character as a people, as a distinct nation because we are the product of so many influences of different cultures and belief systems.
Pero sa kabila nito, dapat nating ipagmalaki ang ating mga naging ninuno, na sa kabila ng payak nilang pamumuhay, naging masigasig at malikhain sila.

Sometimes I think about going back to the basics, like the one below:

We had had another price hike in gasoline prices over the weekend. So what do we do then? Spend time at home, of course, and eat home-cooked meals and eat our free ice cream.
Free ice cream?
Yup, we got free tub of 3.4 liters of Nestle Cookies and Cream ice cream when we went to the Get Your Pop On Nestle Event last Thursday night. Woohoo!

Not really a boxing fan, nor a Manny Pacquaio fan but I think this is worth writing a short blog post about.
Yes, Manny “Pacman” Pacquaio won the ninth round by KO against the bigger David Diaz to take home the WBC Lightweight title .
Events like these are what we need during this time of distress and mourning, if only for a few moments of victorious pride. The positive result of the fight couldn’t have come at a better time than now.
