My small need
This is the first time that I’ll be writing for PinoyBlogosphere.com. It’s a most refreshing thing since I have been writing for my own blog http://newphilrevolution.blogspot.com for quite some time and for the defunct Filipino Voices.com.
There are several things that occupy my mind right now. One of them, the seemingly deteriorating peace and order situation throughout the country, most especially Metro Manila. Metro Manila is under attack mainly by malevolent forces that seemed intent on making life harder for us.
IMagine, we are being made to suffer from extreme price hikes and with no wage hike in sight, and here you are, being spooked by criminal elements almost every single day. It seemed that government is quite helpless in solving these things.
Here we are, quite problematic, every single day on how to get the money for that next meal, and when you get out of your house, you still have petty thieves, carjackers, kidnappers etal, to worry about.
Government, as I was made to believe by my Political Science teacher, is there to protect the rights and welfare of the people. We are being made to pay our taxes and we expect that government will do its share of protecting our welfare. What are some things we expect government to do:
1. Protect us from unscrupulous traders and big time companies particularly from price hikes. Government has the power to intervene, yet, can’t seem to figure out why it has’nt.
2. Protect us from cartelization. Cartels make life harder by controlling and imposing unjust prices for their commodities.
3. Make government service accessible.
These are simple things which we expect government. Unfortunately, this government, like its predecessors, seemed totally clueless or is unable to satisfy our primary needs.
Government tries to convince us to do small things for the country, yet, here you are, having a government that does not try to do its end of the bargain.
Quo vadis?
Divisoria Shopper’s Map (2011 Update): A guide on the whereabouts of the things you need to buy in Divisoria
May dalawang taon na rin ang nakalipas nang na-i-post ko ang tunkol sa Divisoria Shopper’s Map: A guide on the whereabouts of the things you need to buy in Divisoria. Di ko inaasahan na dadagsain ng mga tanong ang aking post at nakakatuwa din naman na malaman na nakakatulong pala ang mga walang kwentang pinagsusulat ko. Sa dami ng nag tatanong sa post ko, marami rin akong hindi nasagot, kung kayat nung minsan na walang pasok, ay sinubukan kong alamin kung saan nga ba sa Divisoria makikita yun mga bagay na karaniwang tinatanong sakin.

Zambales Roadtrip Part1: Pundaquit-Capones-Anawangin
Forgive me that for my first post I feel that it’s goin to get a bit cheesy. I am after all going to write about the place where our unexpected love story began – that is according to me. Never mind when after a year of getting married, Jep, my husband still claims he doesn’t know anything about it. I can only roll my eyes.
Anyway, the place is called Anawangin Cove — I’m sure you’ve heard of it; even in isolation it has earned a big following especially among campers and simply anyone game for adventures. It’s situated in the province of Zambales (Philippines), facing the South China Sea. It’s about a half-hour boat ride from Pundaquit, San Antonio, a fishing village that is roughly 4 hours away from Manila by car (depending greatly on traffic). Travel time is greatly reduced via the new SCTEX highway after the Dau exit at NLEX.
Zambales Roadtrip Part2: Punta de Uian, Pundaquit
From Anawangin, we headed back to Pundaquit via another round of tumultuous boat ride that got me for the most part of the trip praying & swearing at the same time. Thank God we reached the coast in one piece. From there we all agreed we could use a nice break. Punta de Uian was the perfect choice, being only a few minutes away from where we docked.
The Punta de Uian experience was for us indeed a sweet reward, after spending a not-so-comfortable night in Anawangin. What endeared me to this place, apart from its classy ambience and that “chill” vibe, was that it sort of paved way for me to get to know the husband better via our conversations that went on up to the wee hours of the morning over cold beer, menthols and the sound of crashing waves. Oooh la la. The cheesy part never ends.
Tagaytay Retreat
This will always be one of my favourite cities in my home country, mostly because of my fascination with anything close to winter and in this tropical land that I live in, this probably is the closest I can get to. I mean Sagada can go really low but that’s about 6 -7 hours from Manila so I am pretty happy with Tagaytay. I guess this goes for a lot of people living in the capital— Tagaytay, with its cool & invigorating air, its magnificent landscape and its proximity to Manila has become a favourite weekend retreat from the chaos of urban life.
That it boasts of a smorgasbord of food delicacies & the freshest of fruits and veggies makes it all the more endearing to tourists. We love to come here for the crazy food trip!
The Great Wiener Experience
Of all my Euro travels, this one stands out as my favourite. Not only had this city got me spellbound, but the whole Wiener experience in the so called cultural capital of Europe was just unforgettable. Thanks to Wolfgang our German colleague turned travel planner, we got to try out some popular local treats and appreciate the Wiener way of life, even for just a day and a half. Wiener Schnitzel, Sachertorte, Kaffeehauser, Huerigens, Mozart Balls! Yummmmm. That I got to do it with my dear friend Dads all the more made it one heck of a holiday. Too bad I had to lose my laptop where I stored my hi-res photos of the trip. I still can’t forgive myself for it, though I was able to salvage a few from Multiply. Well at least. But still, it sucks man.
Bern, Baby, Bern!
This was our very first trip out of Germany hence our spirits were just soaring in anticipation. I’ve considered Switzerland when I was making a list of places I wanted to visit in Europe (with my eyes quite fixated on its capital, Bern for its impressive medieval architecture) and so when opportunity presented itself, I couldn’t have been more thrilled!
One of our colleagues who had a best friend living in Bern invited us to spend the weekend in the scenic Swiss Capital. This, unlike our Berlin trip that was pretty much history-loaded, was more like a weekend getaway meant to visit our colleague’s friends, unwind and get a peek of the city where my favourite Toblerone is made. The trip was quite anti-climactic but the city was certainly a revelation.
Hallo aus Berlin!
When I learned that I was going to Frankfurt for a project I decided straight away that Berlin should be our first destination in our weekend trips. I’ve always been fascinated with Germany’s rich, and quite dramatic past and how it significantly changed the rest of the world and I thought if given the chance I will definitely make a visit to the so called center of politics and culture of Germany and one of the most influential cities in the EU.
Prior to our trip, our German colleague, Wolfgang gave us a refresher about the Pre-reunification period of Germany which even roused our interest to see the places where history unfolded. It was quite a moving story, from the time the four victorious powers (US, UK, France & Soviet Union) of World War II split the city into four zones, to the founding of the Federal Republic of Germany in West Germany and the Democratic Republic in the East, to the erection of the Berlin Wall, to its fall and finally the reunification in October 3, 1990.
