Bakit nakaka”emo” ang tag-ulan?

Bakit nakaka”emo” ang tag-ulan?

pansin ko lang. pansin ko lang talaga. ang lakas maka”emo” ng ulan.

pag dumadating yung mga panahong ganito, trending sa mga social network sites ang mga emotional at makabagbag damdaming mga status. posts.kanta.lahat na.

madalas pa sa hindi, tungkol sa pag ibig.

kaya nga naitanong ko, anong meron sa ulan?

Of nail polish and subtle moments.

Who knew what those brightly colored liquids contained in that little bottle.of specific smell and with a dainty little brush  can do and bring such delight to a cold and dull evening.

Dubai Memoirs: The Intro

Travelling is one of my life's pleasure. I've always wanted to see the world with my very own eyes. To marvel with our Lord's creation and savor the beauty of Mother nature is one thing I'm eager to do.

My current work enables me to fulfill this. Within my almost one year and a half  of stay with my current work, I was able to visit two countries. Twice in Singapore and my personal favorite, our visit in Dubai.

I don't know if this is just a way of the Lord introducing me to Dubai. Another option for a workplace eh?hahah. But seriously, I love Dubai. The place is indeed a melting pot of culture of different nationalities. I was able to meet friends that i haven't seen for the longest time. And my personal favorite is the beauty of Burj Khalifa and Burj Al Arab.

I divided the Dubai experience into three.

Part 01: Meet up with fellow Red Cross friends and Burj Al Arab
Part 02: Jimbeam reunion Dubai Edition
Part 03: New faces and Places: Meeting My cousins' cousins.

A Malay Wedding

Weddings are one of the ceremonies in life that i enjoy attending to. It is just full of love and happiness all through out the ceremony. In my lifetime, i had only attended Catholic weddings. It was really a very fortunate experience for me that i was invited to take part in a Malay Muslim wedding. I really have no idea what they do during these occasions, but one thing I've heard is that these ceremonies are really colorful, festive and overflowing with rich culture and tradition.

So beforehand, I obliged my self to do some readings about Malay Weddings. Do's and dont's and an overview of what i was and should be able to capture. oh btw. i was an apprentice for my friend,Josh, who is the photographer assigned to cover the wedding. together with Lawrence (my other friend here in Brunei) we attended the Bersanding (on the Groom's side) that day.

Here are the links of my readings:
