April 16-30, 2009

When I get fat, my face gets fat as well. Not a good thing.

Dear Friends and Family, Here I am again with my bimonthly e-mail! I hope you enjoy my photo updates for April, 2009. Thanks to everyone who had sent me e-mails this month! So far so good. I am very close to finishing my Biology course. I can't wait to take a break from studying. I have also been working on my scrapbooks at home and I am Inspired everyday to live happy. I smile a lot more than I used to. I feel so much better too. Ron and I go out for our afternoon walks almost every other day. There had been some "snow and cold" events but It seems that that would be the last for snow this year. (Hurrah to that!) I Love you all! I Miss all of you!

This was taken at the shopping mall in Sparwood, British Columbia. It was just about closing time. Very empty.

This month, we had gone to the Frank Slide Town in Alberta.

At the Frank Slide Interpretive Center, Alberta, Canada. You see Frank in his wheelchair, and Ron looking at the displays. We had a great day that day. It was wonderful learning about the history of that town.

I like this ring. I bought it in Calgary. It's Inspiring. It reflects so much light and different colors. Whenever I look at it, It reminds me to focus on the good and the power of positive thinking. I don't really wear jewelry, but when I saw this, I couldn't stop staring at it. Once it was coal that turned into a diamond.

One of the highlights from our trip just recently to Calgary. Ron and I found a Filipino Bakery. Oh my gulay! It felt just like home. They had siopao pinoy style, Maja Blanca, Puto, Kutchinta, Yema. Ang sarap! I wanted to eat everything on the display!

I saw this graffiti on an afternoon walk in Calgary, Alberta.

Paul. Deep in thought once again?

One of my favorite spots in Calgary. I love to drink beer here at night. But I hide the beer ofcorse. I don't think it's allowed to be holding beer in public unless it's in a restaurant or a bar. In Baguio, me and my friends Antot, Marvin and Qryz used to drink our beer in a paper bag, during Panagbenga (baka kasi huliin kami ng pulis - embarrassing diba? hahah). We would walk up and down Session Road, drinking beer and enjoying the party music everywhere we went. People watching was one of my favorite hobby. It still is.

Natutuhan ko ng uminom ng Kape. Hindi ako mahilig mag Starbucks kasi letche naman O-A ang presyo no! It is when I started drinking coffee black that I got to love it. Na addict na yata ako sa kape!

$3.50 Kape. Magkano yun sa Pinas? Over ang presyo ano? ngek!

Kita ba ninyo yung nakaupong mama? Doon kami uminom ng beer sa gabi Hehe! That's where I took the night shot of Calgary! It's meant as a viewing area really. Kaya perfect viewing spot during the day and night.

Perspective. Lonely Man Walking.

We had gone to the Barrio Fiesta Filipino restaurant in Calgary, Alberta and I was so happy to taste so much Filipino Food there! I also met manong Junny! Thanks for being so friendly!
