Life In A Snapshot

lechon, originally uploaded by kerslyn.

How I wish I have a birthday bash tomorrow and a lechon from Porkito’s would complete it. This lechon is so yummy that one would definitely need the best weight loss pills after being addicted to it. But I am already used to having a quiet and simple special day since I turned 20 (I guess). Now that I’d be a year older, maybe it’s just right to have another quiet day. Besides, I don’t wanna tire myself tomorrow because I am not well yet. So my body is really telling me to stay at home and rest whether it be my special day or not.

We deviated from the usual tradition of welcoming the new year in the comfort of our home or celebrating with relatives back in our hometown. PILs chose to celebrate the holidays in MILs hometown and in Dumaguete City hence we missed them in this occasion. The whole family (except of course from my late mother) went to Paradise Island Park and Beach Resort – a five-minute boat ride from Davao City – in the afternoon of December 31st. We don’t know what to expect in celebrating new year at a resort so we were stunned as we watch fireworks display from the nearby resort. I am not ready for a fireworks shoot as I haven’t read how to go about it so we had not-so-good fireworks photo. I know I should use a tripod because I’ve been shooting on slow shutter speed but I don’t know why I never stood from my post and get the tripod. Maybe I don’t wanna miss a minute or two of the grand fireworks display. I think I even told Ace to use tripod when he got the camera from me but he, too, doesn’t want to stand up from where he is seated while watching just to get the tripod.

What’s great in spending the night in the nearby island facing Davao City is the stunning view of the majestic Mt. Apo – the highest peak in the country- that will greet you early in the morning. Such a great view to start the day and the year!

Graduation Thank You Card

I should have given my mentors, my friends, my parents, aunts and uncles, including my grandparents with personalized College Graduation Thank You Cards for them to know that I am so grateful for their love and support -morally and financially – to survive the university life and graduated with flying colors. I know they are aware how thankful I am for everything that they have done to make my college life successful. Anyway, I will just bear that in mind should I have my own kids. Hopefully I won’t miss getting thank you cards for them to give out to special people that have been part of their school life since http://www.graduationcardsshop.com have a lot of thank you cards to choose from. Aside from graduation thank you cards, GraduationCardsShop has various cards such as  high school graduation thank you card, preschool graduation party thank you cards.
