Birthdays are Milestones
Children’s birthday parties are super fun to attend, whether one has a child or not.
Of course, themed birthday parties can be a bit expensive on the part of the guests but hey, birthdays (especially FIRST birthdays) are milestones and should be celebrated.
The works: face painting, tattoo, balloons, magic show, birthday cupcakes and so much more to keep the guests entertained. Of course, goody bags to take home the fun 😀
I also look forward to receiving Christmas party invitations, ooops, I mean birthday party invitations because these “signal” the anticipation of fun. Am not excited for Christmas to arrive, no I’m not.
Parties however, give me a bit of a tinge of sadness because my children have not had grand parties to celebrate their milestones. I hope they won’t think I love them less because we were not able to provide these parties for them.
Happy first birthday to baby Jia. You are now officially a toddler. to Lani and Joel, let the chasing begin!

Nuvali One Evotech
Nuvali One Evotech Building is a cool structure. And by cool I mean literally cool.
The building was designed to have cool air entering the premises and plants planted between ramp-like pathways to encourage easier walking. There is only one elevator which, if one uses these ramps would not be used, especially for those who want to have some “leg work” done.
This green building was built according to the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environment Design) standards.
Another green building with green roofs was also visited in this trip, along with a visit to beautiful green homes. I’m not sure if Baldwin door hardware was used in these homes but I am sure that recyclable materials and minimized use of artificial lights are a part of the package.
It would be good for these homes to use Eco-Furniture too.

Tatawid Ka Ba?
Tatawid ka ba? Dun ka sa tamang tawiran tumawid para di ka madisgrasiya.
Marami nang mga binawian ng buhay dahil ayaw nilang umakyat sa mga foot bridge na tamang tawiran upang makapunta sa kabilang kalye. Ang iba naman, hindi pasaway tumawid pero ang mga sasakyan naman ang pasaway kaya sila ay nakakadisgrasiya.
Noong wala pa ang foot bridge na ito, nasagasaan ang kapatid ng kasambahay ng aking biyenan. Di naman siya pasaway o kaya hindi sanay dahil sa paglalagi niya sa kanyang pinagsisilbihang pamilya sa loob ng labing-apat ng taon, hindi na bago sa kanya ang lugar na ito.
Marahil, gaya nang sabi ng mga matatanda, ay oras na niya ngunit masaklap na sa ganun humantong ang kanyang pagkamatay.
Sana maging aral sa iba ang pagtawid sa tamang lugar hindi lamang sa ikaaayos ng trapiko kundi sa kanilang kaligtasan na din.
