Prelude to Socorro Adventure

The key to a healthy body is sweat! I have not been sweating for months because of the winter season. Now that it is summer, I am beginning to feel it! ... especially here in Socorro, NM! credit We drove today for 3 hours from Gallup because I will be attending a course in Physics! The whole family joined me since we were given free housing for the week. But, my, my, my! it is sooooo hot!!! It is now 10:40pm and still I am sweating.. and all I am doing is browsing the internet and Facebook! Major why? they are using swamp coolers in the university , and I think the pump installed in our apartment is broken! Great! Everyone's asleep though, because we all took a bath and felt refreshed. Thanks to the fan and the opened windows! It's 5 days of "I-don't-know-what-is-in-store-for-me-in-the-course" I did not even teach this school year and definitely not Physics! Oh well, excitement is in the air! Lol! So, for the next 5 days, I'...

Games in our Minds

Since daddy worked abroad we were blessed with high technology toys and gadgets growing up. I just remembered because every time I would drive and need to cross roads, my mind would automatically switch to game mode! Lol! You see, I used to love this Chicken Crossing The Road Game using ATARI then. I would control the chicken's movement so it wouldn't get killed while crossing, the chicken needs to walk past 4 lanes to get a score -mmm, to get the worm at the other side!  credit So,  just to make a connection, it could be that when we are constantly faced with the same challenges everyday, even via online games, we also subconsciously get to actualize it. It no longer matters if it's just a game or the real thing, we react the same to it! The point is REPETITION, VISUALIZATION and MIND CONDITIONING may actually work especially in achieving our goals or achieving our dreams. What do you really want? If, say, we really want to become a millionaire... then we may set up situat...

Loving Basketball Again!

It started the night of Pacquiao and Bradley's boxing fight! A group was cheering on a basketball game. I have not watched BASKETBALL in yearssss! True!!! (I think the last time was in high school! Lol!) So, I asked about it and remembered hearing about a Filipino-American coach leading Miami Heat basketball team. I instantly cheered for them - JUST BECAUSE Eric is a Filipino.. race connection! Lol! Miami Heat won vs Boston Celtics. Eric Spoelstra From then on, the same group of basketball followers would gather from one house to another to watch the finals - Oklahoma Thunders vs Miami Heat, from games 1 to 5. It was hilarious since the group has both OKC and Heat followers. We were dancing the chicken dance, chanting "an-na lang" (I think it means, that's the way to do it.. just like that!), shouts of "shooooot", raising of arms and major clapping!  It was a gathering of great minds! Lol! since we talked about ideas Lol!, we ate (pot luck every time) and ju...

365 Project: HALFWAY done!

credit I started this 365 days project of writing last December 12, 2011. Who would have guessed I am halfway done? This is my 182nd day already!!! Here's an excerpt from my 365 days project post. I've always wanted to write everyday... One day at a time... one story at a time.. for 365 days . I hope that you'd join me as I write my her heart out... Stories of my life. Stories to share. Stories to learn about. stories to read. Positive that as I uncover mysteries of life in its simplicity and beauty, YOU will also be able to relate, find common things, learn, unlearn, undo, redo, own, justify, correct, metamorphose, change… life as it is. Did I religiously write everyday? No, it is hard! Sometimes, I just don't know what to write! But I try to compensate days I haven't written so I could catch up with the project. I just need to think outside of the box to it happen! What have I learned so far? I've learned all the more, how powerful our minds could g...
