Special Memory - Lea Salonga

You will always be a special part of me
You will always be a special memory
I`ll always cherish wonderful moments
You have given me
You are in my heart wherever I may be

All the times we shared will always be to me
Songs my heart will sing refreshing melodies
I`ll put together all of your laughterLike a symphony
I`ll remember you wherever I may be

(Instrumental)

I`ll put together all of your laughter
Like a symphony
I`ll remember you wherever I may be

I`ll remember you wherever I may be
I`ll remember you wherever I may be

Movie


A friend of mine invited me to watched a movie with her today.its a 20minutes drive to penn cinema.She said that she will shoulder everything so(onsa pa man ako huwaton libre na ni. uban jd ko.heheheh)i said"YES".On our way to the Movie house traffic is lined up police is busy driving over to the area where the accident was.We stayed in the middle of the line(traffic)little longer so we decided to find ways to get a short cut to be there at the movie house on time.
Luckily we arrived safely and on time we purchased the ticket bought some drinks and get in.It's been a while since i went to the movie house to watched because mostly just watched movie at home never go anywhere. We watched Indiana jones by the way its a nice movie though love it.
About the film:
INDIANA JONES and the kingdom of the crystal skull
----------------
The newest Indiana Jones adventure begins in the desert Southwest in 1957-the height of the Cold War.Indy and his sidekick Mac (Ray Winstone) have barely escaped a closed scrape with nefarious Soviet agents on a remote airfield.
Now,Professor Jones has returned home to Marshall College-only to find things have gone from bad to worse.His Close freind and dean of the College (jim Broadbent) explains that Indy's recent activities have made him the object of suspicion,and that the goverment has put pressure on the university to fire him.On his way out of town,Indiana meets rebellious young Mutt (Shia LaBeout),who carries both a grudge and a proposition for the adventurous archaeologist:if he'' help Mutt on a Mission with deeply personal stakes,Indy could very well make one of the most spectacular archaelogical finds in history-the Crystal Skull of Akatar,a legendary object of fascination,superstition and fear.
But as Indy and Mutt set out for the most remote corners of peru-a land of ancient tombs,forgotten explores and a rumored city of glod-they quickly realize they are not alone in their search.The Soviet agents are also hot on the trail of the Crystal Skull.Chief among them is icy cold,devastating beautiful Irina Spalko (Cate Blanchett),whose elite military unit is scouring the globe for the eerie Crystal Skull,which they believe can help the Soviets dominate the world...if they can unlock its secrets.
Indy and Mutt must find a way to evade the ruthless Soviets,follow an impenetrate trail of mystery,grapple with enemies and freinds of questionable motives,and,above all,stop the powerful Crystal Skull from falling into the deadliest of hands.

In the Savior's holy name.

Blessings to surround you
In times of trial and stress
And inner joy to fill your heart
With peace and happiness.

We attended the 55 annual World's largest chicken barbeque today after a busy day of working.Hubby and i were both tired and hungry.Good thing the traffic is not that heavy went there quick.(at last kaon na jud ni.hehehhe).

The benefits of the events goes to a choosen charity.
Good night everyone.happy weekend.

Got this tag from Juliet thank you very much

According to a Japanese institute that does research on blood types, there are certain personality traits that seem to match up with certain blood types.

TYPE O---You want to be a leader, and when you see something you want, you keep striving until you achieve your goal. You are a trend-setter, loyal, passionate, and self-confident. Your weaknesses include vanity and jealously and a tendency to be too competitive.

TYPE A---You like harmony, peace and organization. You work well with others, and are sensitive, patient and affectionate. Among your weaknesses are stubbornness and an inability to relax.

TYPE B---You're a rugged individualist, who's straightforward and likes to do things your own way. Creative and flexible, you adapt easily to any situation. But your insistence on being independent can sometimes go too far and become a weakness.

TYPE AB---Cool and controlled, you're generally well liked and always put people at ease. You're a natural entertainer who's tactful and fair. But you're standoffish, blunt, and have difficulty making decisions.

How do you rate?My bloodtype is A. I like harmony, peace and organization. I work well with others, and sensitive, patient and affectionate.Now let's keep this tag rolling! I want to know if your blood type really fits your personality.

LoVE Of mY LifE

I am amazed
When i look at you
I see you smiling back at me
It's like all my dreams come true
I am afraid
If i lost you girl
I'd fall through the cracks
And lose me track in this crazy lonely world

Sometimes it's so hard to believe
When the nights can be so long
And gave me the strength
And kept me holding on


Chorus

You are the love of my life
And I'm so glad you found me
You are the love of my life
Baby put your arms around me
I guess this is how it feels
When you finally find something real
My angel in the night
You are my love
The love of my life

Now here you are
With midnight closing in
You take my hand as our shadows dance
With moonlite on you skin

I look in your eyes
I'm lost inside your kiss
I think if i'd never met you
About all the things i'd missed

sometimes it's so hard to believe
when a love can be so strong
and faith gave me the strength
and kept me holding on


You are the love of my life
And I'm so glad you found me
You are the love of my life
Baby put your arms around me
I guess this is how it feels
When you finally find something real
My angel in the night
You are my love
The love of my life

GOod idEa tipS frOm neStLe

EAT BEFORE YOU SHOP.
Always eat before shopping because if you are hungry when shopping you’ll tend to overspend and make unnecessary purchases.

EAT LIGHT SNACK BEFORE THE PARTY.
Drink a full glass of water, eat an apple, have a light snack before going to the party. Do not arrive at the party hungry because you will most likely end up overeating.


BOND WITH YOUR TEEN OVER BEAUTIFUL MUSIC.
Play a song you used to love when you were younger, then describe why you love it. Let her introduce you to songs that she likes and ask why she likes them. You can also bond over movies or books.


APPLY SUNSCREEN.
Protect yourself from harmful wrinkle and cancer-causing UV and UVB rays. Use one with a SPF (Sun Protection Factor) of 15 or higher. Apply every 2 hours when on the beach or when you’re out and perspiring heavily.


BRING THE OUTDOORS IN.
Bring in a plant or cut a bent leafy stem from one of your plants, put it in a vase, add some rocks and give your place a minimalist modern look. Flowers will create warmth in any home. Tie these up in large bunches or peel off the petals to decorate your tabletops.


EXERCISE.EXERCISE.EXERCISE.
Brisk and regular walking is the simplest aerobic exercise you can do anywhere, anytime of the day. Regular aerobic exercise may protect women from breast, uterine and cervical cancer risks.


INGREDIENT SUBSTITUE.
Have you ever wanted to try a new recipe with hard-to-find ingredients? Don't despair! Click on http://www.nestleclub.com.ph/tips and discover practical Pinoy substitutes for your cooking needs.


TEACHING YOUR CHILD TO SAY THANK YOU.
Did you know that saying “thank you” makes both the giver and the recipient feel good? So thank you for taking time to read this article!


UPDATE,BORROW OR SWAP.
If you have décor that you’ve grown tired of, you can paint it, clean it up or combine it with newer items for that modern look. Ask your family and friends for décor that they don’t need then trade these with your own. Learn to spot the potentials right in your own home. Decorate and arrange elements from time to time to keep the room looking fresh and pleasant.


CREATE BONDING MOMENTS.
Spice up and create interest in your family history–“how Lolo and Lola used to live during the war”. How to do it? Camp in your own backyard and let your kids experience the simple life of their grandparents. Turn off all lights in the main house; work only with lights coming from flashlights and candles. Assign your kids to do all the cooking like grilling hotdogs and cooking rice. Tell them family stories they love to hear again and again, like how much dating cost when mom and dad were going out. And when the stars come out, spread the banig and count the stars while enjoying warm glasses of NIDO and toasted marshmallows or cereal bars. It is a different way to bond with your family, and a fun way to go back to your roots too.


HOW TO SPICE UP YOUR REUNION WITH GAMES.
Reunions and family gatherings are when everone wants to catch up with one another, and also have fun together. So, make up games that use this connection to keep everyone laughing and having fun! Devise rules that ensure the family get to know each other's anecdotes, jokes, unforgettable moments, secrets, and more!
Water BalloonsMusical Dress Up Spill the Beans


FAMILY ORGANIZERS.
Instead of a personal organizer, why don’t you share your to-do-list, homemaking tips and calendar of activities with the whole family through a family organizer. According to Cynthia Townley Ewer, editor of Organized Home, this multipurpose planner will save time, reduce stress, and open communication lines among family members. Family organizers can also be an instant, convenient and common source of important family documents such as copies of birth certificates, identification numbers, receipts, school permission slips, calling cards etc. By doing this, every member of the household becomes more involved and excited in planning family activities. They also get to share ideas, thoughts and opinions about themselves and their homes.


NAMETAG TO INDENTIFY PARTY DRINKS.
During a party, guests often get caught up with conversations and may forget where they placed their drinks. Help them keep track of their glasses through nametags. Design and cut out construction paper, write names on the tags and use a puncher to make holes to thread around their respective glass items.

hIstOrY

The earliest history of Mothers Day dates back to the ancient annual spring festival the Greeks dedicated to maternal goddesses. The Greeks used the occasion to honor Rhea, wife of Cronus and the mother of many deities of Greek mythology. Ancient Romans, too, celebrated a spring festival, called Hilaria dedicated to Cybele, a mother goddess. It may be noted that ceremonies in honour of Cybele began some 250 years before Christ was born. The celebration made on the Ides of March by making offerings in the temple of Cybele lasted for three days and included parades, games and masquerades. The celebrations were notorious enough that followers of Cybele were banished from Rome. Early Christians celebrated a Mother's Day of sorts during the festival on the fourth Sunday of Lent in honor of the Virgin Mary, the Mother of Christ. In England the holiday was expanded to include all mothers. It was then called Mothering sunday



History of Mother's Day: Mothering SundayThe more recent history of Mothers Day dates back to 1600s in England. Here a Mothering Sunday was celebrated annually on the fourth Sunday of Lent (the 40 day period leading up to Easter) to honor mothers. After a prayer service in church to honor Virgin Mary, children brought gifts and flowers to pay tribute to their own mothers. On the occasion, servants, apprentices and other employees staying away from their homes were encouraged by their employers to visit their mothers and honor them. Traditionally children brought with them gifts and a special fruit cake or fruit-filled pastry called a simnel. Yugoslavs and people in other nations have observed similar days. Custom of celebrating Mothering Sunday died out almost completely by the 19th century. However, the day came to be celebrated again after World War II, when American servicemen brought the custom and commercial enterprises used it as an occasion for sales. History of Mother's Day: Julia Ward HoweThe idea of official celebration of Mothers day in US was first suggested by Julia Ward Howe in 1872. An activist, writer and poet Julia shot to fame with her famous Civil War song, "Battle Hymn of the Republic". Julia Ward Howe suggested that June 2 be annually celebrated as Mothers Day and should be dedicated to peace. She wrote a passionate appeal to women and urged them to rise against war in her famous Mothers Day Proclamation, written in Boston in 1870. She also initiated a Mothers' Peace Day observance on the second Sunday in June in Boston and held the meeting for a number of years. Julia tirelessly championed the cause of official celebration of Mothers Day and declaration of official holiday on the day. Her idea spread but was later replaced by the Mothers' Day holiday now celebrated in May. History of Mother's Day: Anna JarvisAnna Jarvis is recognised as the Founder of Mothers Day in US. Though Anna Jarvis never married and never had kids, she is also known as the Mother of Mothers Day, an apt title for the lady who worked hard to bestow honor on all mothers.Anna Jarvis got the inspiration of celebrating Mothers Day from her own mother Mrs Anna Marie Reeves Jarvis in her childhood. An activist and social worker, Mrs Jarvis used to express her desire that someday someone must honor all mothers, living and dead, and pay tribute to the contributions made by them. A loving daughter, Anna never forgot her mothers word and when her mother died in 1905, she resolved to fulfill her mothers desire of having a mothers day. Growing negligent attitude of adult Americans towards their mothers and a desire to honor her mothers soared her ambitions.To begin with Anna, send Carnations in the church service in Grafton, West Virginia to honor her mother. Carnations were her mothers favorite flower and Anna felt that they symbolised a mothers pure love. Later Anna along with her supporters wrote letters to people in positions of power lobbying for the official declaration of Mothers Day holiday. The hard work paid off. By 1911, Mother's Day was celebrated in almost every state in the Union and on May 8, 1914 President Woodrow Wilson signed a Joint Resolution designating the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day. History of Mother's Day: Present Day CelebrationsToday Mothers Day is celebrated in several countries including US, UK, India, Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, Mexico, Canada, China, Japan and Belgium. People take the day as an opportunity to pay tribute to their mothers and thank them for all their love and support. The day has become hugely popular and in several countries phone lines witness maximum traffic. There is also a tradition of gifting flowers, cards and others gift to mothers on the Mothers Day. The festival has become commercialised to a great extent. Florists, card manufacturers and gift sellers see huge business potential in the day and make good money through a rigorous advertising campaign. It is unfortunate to note that Ms Anna Jarvis, who devoted her life for the declaration of Mothers Day holiday was deeply hurt to note the huge commercialisation of the day.

hEavEN's vERy sPeCiAL cHiLd

A meeting was held far from Earth
"It's time again for another Birth"
This special child will need much love
His progress may seem very slow
Accomplishments he may not show
And he'll require extra care
From folks he meets,way down there
He may not run,laugh,or play
His thoughts may seems quite far away
In many ways he won't adapt
And he'll be known as handicapped
So let's be careful where he's sent
we want his life to be content;
Please LORD find the Parents who
Will do a special job for you
They will not realize right away
The leading role they're asked to play
So with this child sent from above
Comes stronger faith and richer love
And soon they'll know the privilege given
In caring for this gift from Heaven
This special child so meek and mild
Is "Heaven's very Special child".

Good Morning Everyone,i usually got up early in the Morning to prepared hubby's lunch and the things he needed to work.I opened the computer and here's a very interesting news from yahoo brain game can boots IQ?,Lets find out.Here what yahoo says:,





According to one group of brain doctor's at the University of Michigan,at long lat a mental exercise has been discovered that could really make you smarter.Literally,If the researh is corect,the More you play and the harder you play it,the smarter you get.





LUMOSITY(Web).This Browser-based game offers about a dozen mini games,each designed to help with one area of cognition,Including memory,processing speed,attention span,and "cognitive control".Many games are surprisingly similar in design to the one in the Michigan study and some present a real challenge.($9.95 a month,pictured)





BRAIN CHALLENGE(Xbox live Arcade).Similar to Lumosity,this used to be a cell phone game that was ported to the xbox.A series of Minin-games asks you want comes next in a sequence of graphic designs,Count items quickly,do basic math question,and more.30 type of rapid-fire games are available.and your progress is tracked by the game over time.(800 points).





ROCKY & BULLWINKLE(Xbox Live Arcade).This Set of Wario are-like micro games are great for those looking to boots reaction time and improve eye-hand coordination.Nothing here is too complex(quick:clik the correct button in the next 2 seconds!),but it's all good for working on the"twitch"reflex.(800 points)





BLOKUS PORTABLE:STEAMBOT CHAMPIONSHIP(psp).This is challeging board game come to the PSP,offering a grid in which you have to place your Tetris-like pieces in such a way that they touch only on thier corners.It really works on your pattern recognition skills and gets exceptional tough when playing with a group of four.($20)





WILD EARTH;AFRICAN SAFARI(wii).($30).Not a brain game at all,but really little kids wont be able to manage the controls and strategies of most of the above titles.Still they shouldn't be left out of the fun.Wild Earth isn't exactly the Most thrilling title on the market,but youngers will enjoy looking at the animals on this virtual photo hunt while learning the names of all the beasts of the wild.Good for very small minds.($30).





Daily training over a varying period of time led to "significantly"increased IQ vs a control group,and the longer people played the game,the Higher their IQ got.

fAvORitE

My mother in law handed me this book as a gift its a Super Nutrients ( by:LYNDEL COSTAIN BSc,SRD).As i was reading this one i find this book very interesting helpful and informative.One of my favorite fruit is pineapple there in the province you can get this one for only 15 0r 20 pesos(philippine money) each but here oh my golly cost like $3.99 or $2.99 if its on sale which is a bit costly for me.Wikipedia defined pineapple(Ananas comosus)tropical plant and fruit(multiple)the only one bromeliad fruit in widespread cultivation.It is the most commercially important plants which carry out Crassulacean acid metabolism,or cam photosynthesis.Nutrional values quatities per 4oz. calories 41,Fiber 1.2g,potassium 160mg,vitamin c 12mg
I have a neighbor in the province that has a little space in the backyard he planted pineapple and some eggplants too.You'll see him every now and then stayed in he's garden pulling out some weeds (weeds grow fast than the plants)and watered them every afternoon.Everytime he picked ripe pineapple he used to offer us some.I usually eat sliced pineapple with a little dash of salt love it used this way already since in my childhood days.
