Mom Violy's Birthday Lunch at Mamou, Gateway 2

Carmina asked Mom Violy what kind of food she would like to eat for her upcoming birthday. Mom Violy said she was craving for a restaurant that serves steak and lobster. Carmina gave Mom Violy a list of restaurants for her to decide with a link of the websites for her to see which one look something she would like to try. One week before Mom Violy's birthday she made her final choice where she would like to try  Mamou . Carmina had picked up Mom Violy at her home before heading to Gateway 2 located in Cubao, Quezon City. Mamou is located ground floor inside Gateway 2.

Friends

In our life we experience other things that may affect the way we think and during those times we feel when it has happened more than once you start to realize what kind of friend is that person to you. You realize a lot of things that comes in mind and wonder why someone has to lie to you and not tell you the truth. Sometimes you realize not just being in a relationship you also have friends who lie just to make themselves happy to move on to what they are planning. As you have opened up to them and tell them what is going on with your life you realize you became a fool knowing that that person you had trusted became just like anyone else. You slowly start to stop communicating with them and realize they mean nothing to you. You feel so betrayal and realize who your real friends are. I can understand when my Aunt told me she has no friends where she lives and it is better this way less stress and drama. I’ve reached that point in my life I don't have tha

Underground River in Palawan, Puerto Princesa Philippines

Facebook memories makes you look back in the years when you had taken pictures with family and friends either you have traveled or did some thing special to be able to look back to what you have done. Sometimes we forget the actual date, month and year when you have seen someone or places you have traveled back in the past. Eight years ago my mom and I had traveled to Palawan in Puerto Princess in the Philippines. My mom over heard from her other friends that this place was nice and she wanted to experience something nature to ride a boat to enter inside to see the Underground River that everyone keeps talking about. Sometimes what we hear places and we want to see it for ourselves if what they said, is true or not. The boat ride is 15 minutes to go where the Underground River is located. You get to ride another boat to enter inside the underground river and experience being inside and exploring the area.

Last Minute Shopping

I don't understand why people like to ask something from someone when they already know the person is coming over to visit you and inform you last minute what they request you to bring for you. This is what I hate the most when they we're informed one month ahead that you will be coming over to visit them. Later you are talking to them and letting them which hotel you will be staying at during your stay and where you would like to spend time with them. As you have been conversation with them as you give your agenda for your upcoming trip and give all the details where you will meet on that certain day. Everything is all planned up for your venue you than hear can you do me a favor sometimes you are hesitant to ask what they favor maybe. You don't want to be greedy because that person will be showing you around where you have no clue how to go about in their environment that they live in. You say, sure what is that favor you want me. The person tells you th

School Meetings for Parents

Once you have a child and they start attending school as a parent you are participating on their school activities. School begins there is always a parent’s orientation where it takes place before your child attends school this way you will learn more about your child’s school and what to expect in the coming school year. They also have student orientation for the students to keep them posted and what to expect from themselves. The school will inform you with a letter to sign and turn back with your child to give back to their teacher the following day or before the deadline.
