Happy New Year, Kailiyans


Fireworks in Baguio which is kind of interesting.


And here’s a beautiful fireworks from another part of the globe. I hope to see something like this in Baguio or anywhere in the Cordilleras before I turn into either ash or uod (to quote Ganda).

Birth Month Meme

Our kailiyan in Davao, Ody Batay-an Cua tagged me to do this birth month meme. I decided to do it because everyone else is doing it (hehe).

What to do:
1. Mention the person who tagged you and create a link back to them.
2. Copy-paste the traits for all the twelve months.
3. Pick your month of birth.
4. Highlight the traits that apply to you.
5. Tag 12 people and let them know by visiting their blogs and leaving a comment for them.
6. Let the person who tagged you know when you’ve done it!

Trublue’s Eight Random Things

As promised, here’s TruBlue’s Eight Random Facts about his ego. The rules are at the start of Bill’s post and, are you kidding, who should I tag next? Anonymous 1:01, 1:02? Hehe, so lucky you, I’m not tagging anyone:

1. Other than gobbling on dark chocolates and ice cream (except vanilla), my real passion is flying helicopters. Remote control, that is. This includes trucks and cars. Already crashed two helos. For environment’s sake, I fly electric types, not nitro/gas.
