National Shrine of Saint Jude Thaddeus

After so many years, I finally visited and hear a mass at St. Jude Thaddeus church located just beside the Malacanang Palace. I attended the mass and novena, and offered prayers for the welfare of my family. St. Jude Thaddeus is the patron saint of the hopeless. 

Election Day

Today, Filipinos from all walks of life will go to polling precints to vote for our next President and Vice President for the next six years. I'm proud to say that seeing the long queues or lines outside the polling precints only showed that Filipinos are obviously serious in exercising their right to vote. I'm one of them who patiently waited and fall in line for 2 hours in the long queues. It's worth the wait. I hope that this will be an honest election and our votes will be counted.

Mountain Bike

I wish I could have this mountain bike in the future. I love the combination of the colors and the frame. It's time for me to replace my old mountain bike for my rest day biking activities. I need to raise the amount of 7K pesos to acquire this one. I found this mountain bike from the ads of Zoey Toy which specializes on selling kids toys and bicycles, etc. I will contact them one day to inquire about this unit. God willing.

Blossoming of Kalachuchi Flower (Plumeria)

My plumeria plant, known also as "kalachuchi" in the Philippines never disappoints me whenever it's flowers are in full bloom during the summer season. The bright pink color of the plumeria flower has a sweet scent that is adored by many. The plumeria flower symbolizes positivity and love. 

 

Bougainvillea

It's summertime! My bougainvillea plant is in full bloom. They love to grow in dry and sunny weather. Bougainvillea is a sun-lover and they are fitted to grow best during the summer season.

Fresh and Bloom

It's so relaxing when I wake this morning to see our plants fresh and blooming. With a good cup of coffee, watching them makes me worry free. 

Clean-up

I just finished cleaning and arranging my plants outside my house. The hard work is so fulfilling. I love the arrangement. It's so nice to see it this way. 

Booster Shot

The Philippine government announced that we can have our booster shot after three months of having the 2nd dose of vaccination. I decided to have the booster shot last January 17. The vaccine that was administered to me was Pfizer. I hope I will be fully protected from COVID-19 and Omicron variant that has affected millions of people around the world. This is a good way to start the new year.
