Sebatian Vettel Formula One 2010 World Champion

Posted on November 15, 2010 by greenbucks| Leave a comment

Congratulations Sebastian Vettel, Formula One Grand Prix 2010 World Champion.

“Sebastian Vettel drove a masterful race to win the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and lift his maiden Formula 1 world title.

The 23-year-old Red Bull driver was third in the standings but led from pole and saw other results go his way to become the youngest champion.” – David Ornstein, BBC

Formula One is my hubby’s super favorite motor-sports show, and MotoGP comes next, if I’m not mistaken.

The son is in the same mold for he religiously watches the races, even if it means he will wake up a little after midnight to watch some races live. The son roots for a different driver though, Nico Rosberg while I like Fernando Alonso. Formula One drivers, some even younger than Sebastian Vettel, are very dedicated, hardworking and determined to make their way to the top. I have to tell him that he can be a winner too, in whatever field he wants to be, if he has dedication, passion, hard work and determination.

Manny Pacquiao Wins versus Antonio Margarito

Posted on November 14, 2010 by greenbucks| Leave a comment

Manny Pacquiao did it again, winning his 8th title in six different weight divisions, as he won against Antonio Margarito in a unanimous decision after 12 rounds.

(sorry for blurred photo, I just did print-screen from the videos I took)

He is indeed the pound for pound boxing champ and he makes the nation proud to be not just as a sports celebrity but a good person as well.

Manny said in his interview that “Boxing is not for killing each other you know“.

Bento Box

Posted on October 25, 2010 by greenbucks| Leave a comment

The famous Japanese Bento Box is one alternative to making the lunchbox exciting.

The food prepared in there is healthy too especially for those in the lookout for msm dietary supplements and more healthy food choices.

Here is a video that teaches how to prepare a Bento Box.

Not taking into account the time it takes to prepare a Bento Box, I would love to do this for my school children. BUT! even if I prepare their snacks (those that don’t need cooking) at night before I sleep, it still takes me some time to prepare three lunch boxes considering I wake up at 4am. So that means I wake up around 2am then. Oh my!

I would love to try this one of these days, maybe with practice and preparation, I’d get to master the know-how on making Bento Box 🙂

Tahimik

Posted on October 21, 2010 by greenbucks| 7 Comments

Tahimik

Tahimik na pamumuhay,

aking inaasam.

Walang kaguluhan, gutom at giyera,

nguni’t sa mga pangyayari, imposible nga ba?

Doon sa kakahuyan, tahimik at payapa

sa umaga maririnig ang huni ang ibon,

sa araw naglalaro ang mga paru-paro,

at sa gabi naman, mahimbing ang tulog.

Gugustuhin ko ba ang ganitong buhay?

Bakit hindi, kung ako ay magiging masaya

Walang maingay, mabaho at magulo,

basta kasama ang pamilya at

may internet ako.

Bow.

Typhoon Megi

Posted on October 19, 2010 by greenbucks| Leave a comment

I know a lot of my FB contacts, friends IRL or virtual ones must have gotten tired with my status updates for two days re Typhoon Megi or Juan.

This is a super-typhoon and I think I have the right, like everyone else living in this area, to be concerned. Here is a photo of the typhoon, category 5 and one for the books as one of the strongest ever to hit the planet.

Scary! And yes, our family was affected by this super-typhoon that seems to be enjoying it’s stay and not moving ahead. Hmph.
