Inspired!
For the past few weeks, or exactly a month, music has started flowing in my soul. I guess it has something to do with the latest happenings in my life. I am inspired to do so much now more than ever because I feel happier than previous. Maybe in the next few days I would be learning to play an instrument or so. hahaha.. Perhaps even buy french horn mouthpieces at guitar center and all other accessories for a complete masterpiece.
Anyway, I am also writing songs again. So thank you dear inspiration. You make me so happy.

Training The Working Scholar
My sister has been monitoring our working scholar like she is her own daughter. She is actually the one training her for every task in the house. She is quite slow, but I am glad my sister is patient with her. Sometimes she misses a few things, like where to place the kitchen anti fatigue mats, or the aprons or the clothes pins, and all others. She didn't know how to cook anything when she first arrived, but now, thanks to my sister, she can already cook some dishes that she has become proud of.
My sister always teaches her how to be able to learn and accept learning as it is a tool for her growth. The good thing about our working scholar is that she listens and she is willing to be trained. Of course, we always emphasized the 3 Cs in Life. Choices, Chances and Changes-- and she is even more inspired to move forward in her life.

Stressors et.al. Hehehe
Work is stressful with the little time we have to rest. Like, today, I have just finished class which started at 2 pm, and ended at 8:15 straight, with only 15 minutes for recess. Makes me want to simply doze off or climb aboard any arizona bus rental and go just wherever I wish to go. I wish!
But then, since I am enjoying my time with all my students, regardless of their backgrounds, I am relieved from stress. It is my the lady mumra who drive me nuts with all her intrigues and baseless chatter. Well, I simply ignore her crude comments and unworthy remarks. When she speaks about positive things though, and when she is genuinely happy, she is a different person and I almost always end up liking her. But then, the cycle goes on and on and I think about quitting each time.

7 Heads..
I just paid for my 7 heads this lunchtime. Took on a loan because I know I will be joining many others in financial freedom. Well, it would have been cash payment if only the "big man" paid me ontime. Regardless, I know I have made a really good investment and choice. And with the video I found on you tube, I am even more inspired.
What do I have to lose? I get worthwhile products in my kit and I sold some of them, while my family uses them too. It's a call I've made that I am going to stand my ground and do just what I am taught to do--- I will make it! That's not just a conviction, but my declaration. It has been done. I just have to live to see it..
So guys, if you have more questions about AIM Global, you can leave me a message here..

Cleaner CDO
A friend of mine posted pictures of what transpired today from Cogon Market and all other places in our beloved city, and I am happy that the newly elected mayor has really started his clean up drive. Soon we may have postcards of our city and they may be available for printing at zooprinting.com---- I wish! But with a cleaner CDO, I am sure every place can be postcard perfect...
At four in the afternoon, I saw how the cleanup was done at Pabayo Street, but when we passed by the same street at nine in the evening, the vendors were there, and they are known to pollute the streets with the smell of their food, as well as the garbage from their stalls. I hope this street can be made clean too.

Lili's Thank You Note..
Lili's birthday was a blast, although it was celebrated simply with a few of her friends, our family and some neighbors. She received gifts mostly purses, shoes and money and she was happy with everything, even the simple greetings only. My Lili does not need branded items like prada sunglasses or expensive gadgets. She was raised to appreciate everything, although she has her wants too, but she is more concerned with how much one sincerely gives, and thanking persons for what they give.
I got this awesome thank you note cum self-made card after her birthday..

5 Reasons Chicken is a Super Meat
You've probably heard people say that you should eat more chicken, and a real reason for this exists. Chicken has a lot of benefits, and here are five of the reasons why it is considered to be a super meat.
A Healthy Alternative
Loading up on red meats and pork is not really the best idea because both of these tend to add fat to your body. On top of that, they can really affect your cholesterol and heart health in a negative manner. Chicken, on the contrary, is much better for you, and it is considered to be a lean meat. When you are looking to lose some weight or lead an overall healthier lifestyle, chicken is the meat you want to eat.
It's Versatile
Chicken is also a super meat because it can be used in so many different ways. You can throw some sauce and mozzarella on it and bake it in the oven, or you can chop it up and serve it with a pasta dash. When you have ground chicken, making chicken burgers or chicken tacos is a breeze. Of course, you can make some fried chicken too, but then you are really losing the health value of it. Click here for more fun recipes to try out.
It Pleases Many Palates
When you are having a dinner party or other type of formal reception, you obviously have plenty of choices to make. Deciding what you are going to feed everyone is certainly a decision that needs to be taken care of. Opting for anything too out-of-the-ordinary might mean that your guests are unhappy with their dishes. Fortunately, chicken is a meat that so many people like. When you put it on the menu for the event, you truly can make all of your guests happy.
Giving You Power
Chicken is low in fat, but it also has plenty of protein in it. Protein can really give you energy when you feel that you are in a slump, and it is also good for your health in otherwise. It helps to build up strong muscles and bones, so you'll know that you are really comprehensively providing for your health when you eat it. Protein has such a tremendous role in your body, and you absolutely need it to stay strong and to tackle all of life's challenges.
Kids Love It!
You've probably seen children who love their little chicken nuggets. Even if you do not want to feed chicken nuggets to your children, you can let them know that the meat is chicken. By simply saying chicken, you may be able to introduce your little ones to an array of foods that they would have never consumed otherwise.
When you hear of a super meat, you might not immediately think of chicken. Fortunately, this type of food has so many benefits to it, and you really cannot deny the power that it brings to your dinner table.

Kalayaan 2013: Ambagan Tungo sa Malawakang Kaunlaran
We were told to report to the Capitol Grounds, by our Principal, to attend the Independence Day Flag Raising this morning. The Misamis Oriental Chorale opened the event with their rendition of a Christian song for the invocation and they also sung the National Anthem while the flag was being raised.
What I find most inspiring was the message of our mayor elect who is currently the governor of Misamis Oriental, Oscar Moreno. It was quite a long message, but I made sure I have captured it on video to share here, when I am done uploading it at youtube.
After which, wreath laying followed, with lots of pictorials to cap the event.
What I love most about today's event is that, we were all reminded that although we are free, we have some responsibility to keep our nation free. Freedom, not only from domination or from outside forces, but freedom from poverty as well as illiteracy.

Handog ng Police Station 1
I saw one of our students holding a plastic envelope with notebooks and all other school supplies, and I asked him why he and his classmates are holding the same loot, all of the same brand.
I found out that the policemen from police station 1 have in fact gathered their resources for a gift giving activity to public schools in the area. And one of the schools they visited with the loot was our school. So that answered my question as I entered the gates of our school. I wondered why a police patrol car was parked just in front of the admin office. I thought there was a problem that needed their assistance.
It was actually them who came and gave our grade 7 students assistance in terms of providing school supplies that they can use for this school year, 2013-2014.
Here you can see police officers giving out more by asking some relevant questions, and each correct answer was given a prize.
I was not able to get the names of these officers, but I would like to thank them for their sincere efforts in helping some of our students. School supplies are not cheap these days. Some of the parents of our students could not afford to buy them. That is a sad fact..
On our way out, I met three officers holding their banner, so I asked them for a photo for the purpose of this blog post.
Thank you so much dear officers from Police Station 1. Surely, your help for our grade 7 students will go a long way. Kudos!!!
