Laptop or Airplane ?

Heard of any laptop deals lately? A lot of my friends are telling me that there are lots of  laptops on sale online. Some are even given away as prizes. And they are not just any prizes or deals, they're the ones that anyone would die to have..

Hmm.. I am also looking for the best deal, but it is not yet my concern these days.I am actually saving up for some adventure trip with my little Lili. Somewhere where she can freely express herself without any hindrances. Somewhere where she is free to explore. Well, for my darling angel, it doesn't really matter where, for as long as she can ride the plane, lol.. She told me she couldn't remember the time she was on board a ship, so after the plane, she would like to take a boat ride with me again.. Hmm.. I have this funny feeling that my daughter is going to be an adventurer someday--- hehehe..

Vacations and Passports

My parents, along with my Aunts, Irma, Nancy, Vicky and Doris, will be spending a week-long vacation in Singapore starting December 9, 2010. Their tickets are now ready, both for Manila and for Singapore. Although there is some hitch with my mom's name as the Last Name was mistakenly written so it needs to be corrected at the main office in Manila, I am sure everything will turn out fine. The last time we were excited to travel was when we heard of really affordable Disney vacation packages. Unfortunately, there was a hitch with my brother's name so he had a hard time getting a passport as it was misspelled in his birth certificates.We also want to go but my mother said we should just go as a family when my brother's passport is in proper order. He is, after all, working on it again. And this time perhaps, his girlfriend will be traveling with us too. River and Lili are very much excited. Well, who wouldn't? They are kids after all..

Salt

I just love Evelyn Salt, the character played by actress Angelina Jolie in the movie SALT. I just love how she can quickly move even before she is seen in the security cameras at the CIA headquarters as well as at the White House. All the other agents and security personnel could not keep up with her, they end up dead. Not that I love people getting killed but the movie just makes it more so exciting. The escape I mean, and especially not the killing. I guess if it were a real life drama, I am sure it's way unimaginable.. Good movie, SALT---

Have you had a chance to see it? Well, if Lili didn't get sick and we'd have to camp in my father's house, I wouldn't be able to. I was busy. And more busy these days.. Watching Salt was a breather for me..

Jarchitecture: Fun, Economical and Environment Friendly..

What do you think of this lampshade? This is made of used jars of Kraft Cheez Whiz, as well as sachets and bottle caps. It's quite functional and creative, right? Well, this is just one of the entries for the Jarchitecture Contest during the Palamantasan Regional eliminations that happened August 21, 2010 at the East City Centra;l School in Lapasan, Cagayan de Oro City. 

Here are the other entries:

It takes imagination to create one like that. And it takes an artist to understand such great craft. And if you want something to symbolize your success, claim success from the universe with the piece below. That's just what the creator did, so they won this contest.. 

How about something that will make you understand what Kraft is all about? 

Great Jarchitectures there. And to think they were created by grade 3-5 students.. Congratulations to the Regional Winner who shall compete in Manila for the Nationals..

Fly By Wire Adventure..

July 30, 2010 we went to Dahilayan Adventure Park in Manolo Fortich Bukidnon after  Water Rafting at the Cagayan de Oro River in the morning of the same day.. It was the last day of bonding for us cousins.. Thanks to Uncle Willie and Auntie Letty for the treat.. Below are some photos:

This is how the 320m zipline and 150m zipline are both enjoyed.. One will pay P 300 for the two flights.. Technically, one will simply sit and glide through the harness that connects the seated person and the zipline.. Two people can fly together in the 320m, but in the 150m, it's one person at a time.. 

But for the longest Zipline in Asia, one will fly like Superman or Super Girl along the 840m zipline.. A fuller vest and harness is worn as the person is positioned face down.. For this flight, one will pay P 600 but may already enjoy the first two flights mentioned above.. 

Wanna see some video? Here's what I found on You Tube..

This is actually what you will see while in flight.. We were not able to take any digital cameras with us as we went up the tower so we were not able to document our own flights.. Well, maybe next time..
