Working with Harry Potter

August 28, 2012 - Tuesday

"Reducio!"

If only I can cast this spell to reduce my piles and piles of paper works  to a minimal.

"Silencio!"

If only I can cast this spell so that I can just put this howling voice in my ear into silence.

Oh well, at least I got Mr. Potter to keep me sane in this Tuesday madness.

Our little prince paid us a visit ^____^

So nice to see my baby nephew.

So lovely to hold him again and cuddle with him.

My own creation.  Thanks to photoshop ^___^.

After 3 days of hiatus from work due to the heavy rainfall brought to us by the very assuming Southwest Monsoon wind, I am officially back @ work.

And this time, my Friday acted as if it was a Monday.  Stress! Stress! And did I say, stress!!!

Missing Zac

I just made Zachary's latest picture my desktop background.

"Tita misses you, Zachary!" 

Rainy Tuesday

A very rainy Tuesday, that stopped me from reporting to work.

All roads going to Manila are closed and not passable due to the high flood-level.

It's better and safe to just stay home.

Note:  No Typhoon inside the country's area of responsibility.

Heavy rainfall is due to the Southwest Monsoon Wind.

"What are you lookin' at!?"

Let the comic strip say it all!!!

Typhoon Gener's Havoc

Travel time from home (Bacoor, Cavite) to office (Binondo, Manila) took me almost 4 hours.

Big waves from the Manila Bay flooded the roads to the Metro.

At least I got home safe.  Road is now passable.

But it left a lot of trash on the bay area.

Photo taken by my college professor in Mapua.  Thanks Mam Jing!

Let's Go Online Shopping

July 31, 2012 - Tuesday

Received another virtual card suitable for online shopping.

Let's Shop! Oh yeah!

Injured

My left hand was hurting since Saturday morning.  I think I twisted it and sprained my muscles.  I didn't put any remedy at first because I can still deal with the pain.  It wasn't really hurting that much unless it's stressed.  But this afternoon, I had to ask for my Lola to massage it a bit.  She applied menthol oil that soothes sprained muscles and placed a bandage to avoid unnecessary movement.  I am hoping for a speedy recovery because I might not perform well at work if this pain continues.

Air Pistol

Firing a gun in a firing range is one of my "to-do list".  Just the feel of pulling the trigger is definitely an adrenaline rush for me.  I believe, that activity would be a perfect stress-reliever.  And so when I saw this event in this years Olympics, I knew I just have to make a blog about it.

I don't have any basic knowledge or just even a faint idea about this sport.  Volleyball and Gymnastics are the only sports I always find interesting and glued watching on TV whenever Olympics is on.  But last night, seeing these girls from all ages holding a gun in one hand and the other in their pockets...aiming for the center of the marker made me not to change channel.  I ended up cheering for this Ukrainian player named Olena Kostevych.  She could have finished Silver, if only she did well in her shoot-off with French shooter Celine Gobberville.  Oh well, at least an Asian bagged the gold - Chinese Guo Wenjun.  Guo came from behind after scoring 8.0 on her first shot, she still end up being on top.

From L to R: Celine Gobberville, Guo Wenjun (gold medalist) & Olena Kostevych (bronze medalist)

Olympics 2012

Thanks Google.  This image will be in my collection!

It's the opening of 2012 Olympics.

It was never a part of my dream to be an Olympiad.

But it  has always been in my "to-do list" to watch it live.

Guess I'll have to work harder and save more if I really want to watch it live.

It's gonna be a very festive carnival-like celebration on the next Olympics.

It will be in Rio, baby!

...and another week post...

It was my mother and father's wedding Anniversary last June 27.

We told her it's from her one true love.

My sister's Angels and Demons Experience

My sister was in Rome, Italy for a day (2 weeks ago) and was so privileged to visit almost all the spots mentioned in Dan Brown's infamous novel Angels and Demons.  Well, she missed one place.  You'll know what place she forgot to checked out as you go on with my Photo Blog.  Let's Begin!

Location:  The Pantheon

Professor Langdon rushes to the Pantheon based on the only clue he has, four lines from a poem by Milton:

From Santi's earthly tomb with demon' hole,

'Cross Rome the mystic elements unfold

The path of light is laid, the sacred test,

Let the angels guide you on your lofty quest.

But Robert soon realizes his errors in deducing the clues and began tracing the Four Altars of the “Path of Illumination.”

THE FOUR ALTARS OF THE “PATH OF ILLUMINATION”

Location:  Chigi Chapel @ Church of Santa Maria del Popolo

Langdon and Vittoria found Cardinal Ebner dead, suffocated with soil and branded with ambigrammatic word “Earth”.

Location:  Saint Peter’s Square

Langdon and Vittoria found Cardinal Lamasse with punctured lungs and his body branded with an ambigrammatic word “Air”.

Location:  The Fountain of the Four Rivers @ Piazza Navona

Langdon found a bound and weighted Cardinal Baggia in the fountain gasping for air.  His chest branded with ambigrammatic word “Water.”  And with the help of several bystanders, saves the cardinal.

Location:  Castel Sant’Angelo

Illuminati’s lair as confirmed by Cardinal Baggia.  There Langdon and Vetra discover a hidden passageway leading to the Vatican.

Location:  St. Peter’s Basilica

The fifth brand of ambigrammatic word is found in the hands of the camerlengo.

 footnote*
She missed visiting the third church, Santa Maria della Vittoria, where Cardinal Guidera was burned to death.  His chest was branded with an ambigrammatic word "Fire."
