T-Shirt folding
Never thought that shirt folding was as fun and simple as this. I saw the original video but it was in Japanese, so I'll post the English version of it.

Remembering Vigan

Heyya! Since i just started this blog recently, I want to share an exciting trip of mine, to Vigan City. For those who doesn't know this beautiful city, Vigan is about 400 kilometers from Manila, so that makes a 7 hour trip by bus. It is the capital city of Ilocos Sur located on the west coast of northern Luzon. Vigan is the best-preserved example of a planned Spanish colonial town in Asia with a unique European atmosphere. Vigan is the oldest surviving Spanish colonial city in the Philippines. The name Vigan was derived from "Biga", a giant taro plant that grows abundantly along the banks of the Mestizo River.
I went to Vigan for several reasons: First, i want to visit my cousin who is studying at the University there that time and Second, i want to see the city myself especially the Heritage Village, which i only see in books and postcards when i was little LoL.
The place is truly amazing, with its well preserved colonial houses, churches which truly reflects the Spanish, Chinese and European cultures. I was amazed by the city structure, it's a total mix of ancient and modern architecture for me.



We also visited Gov.Chavit Singson's Baluarte wherein it showcases his passion for nature and wildlife.

Stressed?
Heyya guys! A friend of mine just sent me this list of ways on how to manage and reduce stress. I kinda liked it so i added a few things myself and i wanted to share it to everyone. Feel free to comment if there's something I've missed.
1. Pray
2. Go to bed on time.
3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.
4. Say No to projects that won't fit into your time schedule, or that will compromise your mental health.
5. Delegate tasks to capable others.
6. Simplify and unclutter your life.
7. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough, two are often too many.)
8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places.
9. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time; don't lump the hard things all together (it'll end up surreal) .
10. Take one day at a time.
11. Separate worries from concerns. If a situation is a concern, find out what God would have you do and let go of the anxiety. If you can't do anything about a situation, forget it.
12. Live within your budget; don't use credit cards for ordinary purchases.
13. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet, an extra house key buried in the garden, extra stamps, etc.
14. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut). This single piece of advice can prevent an enormous amount of trouble.
15. Do something for the Kid in You everyday. We may grow old, but not our hearts.
16. Carry a Bible with you to read while waiting in line.
17. Get enough rest (at least 7 hours/day)
18. Eat right. It's not always the quantity, but the quality.
19. Get organized so everything has its place.
20. Listen to a tape while driving that can help improve your quality of life.
21. Write down thoughts and inspirations.
22. Every day, find time to be alone.
23. Having problems? Talk to God on the spot. Try to nip small problems in the bud. Don't wait until it's time to go to bed to try and pray.
24. Make friends with Godly people.
25. Keep a folder of favorite scriptures on hand.
26. Remember that the shortest bridge between despair and hope is often a good "Thank you Jesus."
27. Laugh!
28. Laugh some more! it's really good, provided that there's something to laugh about...LOL
29. Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all.
30. Develop a forgiving attitude (I believe most people are doing the best they can).
31. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it the most.)
32. Sit on your ego...or better bury them
33. Talk less; listen more.
34. Slow down.
35. Remind yourself that you are not the general manager of the universe.
36 . Every night before bed, think of one thing you're grateful for that you've never been grateful for before.
GOD HAS A WAY OF TURNING THINGS AROUND FOR YOU. If God is for us, who can be against us? (Romans 8:31)

Dulibudibu Douchu
Welcome to my humble blog site. I have nothing much in store here yet, just practicing my writing skills lol. I made this blog site to be able to share my experiences and insights in just about anything. A journal to be exact.
As of now, I'm unemployed, just resigned from my previous job that I've worked for quite a long while. But it's worth it, for at least i get to make up the lost time with my family 'coz i usually work up late so i haven't got a chance to talk to them or join them to dinner. I kinda miss those things, but not anymore :).
For the mean time, I'm leaving you this video which i almost cried watching it. i believe this was taken at a Bulgarian Idol audition. Totally hilarious! So enjoy guys and see you soon.
