yesterday my brother and i went to a 16KM bike ride..... it was fun! we started at 6:30am and finished at 8:00. it wasnt just a bike mode...we exerted too much effort for the bike to spin at 580ft! i thought it was that easy and we will end up relax but i was wrong, i got muscle cramps and burned out! we dont have regular workout, we simply go biking whenever and wherever we feel like going. although we grow up riding a bike but on short distance and flat terrain only and top of it our weekends was never for cycling... it was designed for sleep... below was the route we took.

the graduates!
These days have
passed by much too quickly, it’s almost impossible to believe that Lovely will be in high school the next time she step into a classroom…and Honey in college! Honey
and Lovely got their diploma yesterday. Lovely graduated as class salutatorian
and honey as first honorable mention. Our family was so proud for such
achievement. What I really like most of this two is that they love each other
so much. They go to school together and went home together. Honey is so soft
spoken. Lovely is so charming. And you just can’t say no. They are both
achiever especially in science, English and mathematics. Honey stayed at the
Dominican School for almost 13 years starting from her nursery years until her
high school graduation. Lovely opted to enroll at the premier high school in
the city for her high school and honey will pursue her college in the university
outside bicol.
These
kids never ever experience to go to school without anything. How lucky this
kids are for having a very supportive grand’s and aunts and big cousins. They are
filled with love and support, emotionally and financially and I guess those are
the things every kid needed. They have a
peaceful and beautiful mind. All they have to do is enjoy their school every
day and the rest are what their parents concerns. My cousin gilda is a
homemaker. She’s a power mom. She’s a loving, sweet and strict mother. Although she’s an OFW before she choose to
stay to take care of these little ones. Right now they are one of the big corn
planters and rice traders. That’s where they get the money to pay for the tuition
fees. Her husband helps to run his family business. Kuya Erdie is so kind.
So
yesterday we celebrated another wonderful milestone of these kids lives. We gather
all at the Dominican grounds. We take photos, listen to lovely
speech, and watch them as they received their awards.

at the school ground
I would like to express my gratitude for the wonderful opportunities that our little ones were exposed to. To all the staff and the management of Dominican School of Calabanga, especially to the entire faculty for giving this two kids, each, a piece of something to take into higher school. They are privileged to have attended this school. Dominican School offers a Christ centered education – making each of their school days Christ centered and of that we have no doubt, as they make a relatively smooth transition into life beyond school, I am sure that the fine education that they received will stand them in good stead - time and again. And most importantly, we all say, thank you, to God for giving our little ones good health, beautiful and intelligent mind, and for achieving all things they've accomplished.
angelie and tito lao!

the medal....Honey, as you face and tackle the inevitable changes, hold true to yourself. Remember to hold onto your value system, your moral values and most importantly, your humility. It is, these qualities that will guide you further, on your journey. wherever you may find yourself and whatever challenge you may have chosen to follow and explore - hold true to what shaped your yesterdays; acknowledge and appreciate what you are today and dare to be all that you can be tomorrow!
Congratulations Honey and Lovely we are very proud of you!
