2009 CNN Hero of the Year: Efren Peñaflorida

"Our planet is filled with heroes, young and old, rich and poor, man, woman of different colors, shapes and sizes. We are one great tapestry," Peñaflorida said upon accepting the honor. "Each person has a hidden hero within, you just have to look inside you and search it in your heart, and be the hero to the next one in need.

"So to each and every person inside in this theater and for those who are watching at home, the hero in you is waiting to be unleashed. Serve, serve well, serve others above yourself and be happy to serve. As I always tell to my co-volunteers ... you are the change that you dream as I am the change that I dream and collectively we are the change that this world needs to be."

-CNN

Congrats Efren Peñaflorida! Thank you for inspiring others to be a hero in their own little ways.
I hope that more Filipinos will be like you :)
PINOY AKO! :> :> :>

Passport #10

You know what? we're all lucky, it's just a matter of counting the blessings.

It's a natural thing not to have what others have and to have what others don't have.

Sometimes, we just have to look around and learn how to breathe again.

We have to appreciate even that little, tiny piece of hope in our hearts and let it stay there.

because there's no such thing as "when all things fail"

There's always a way, so there's no point in stoppping

We have to keep moving forward

we all have to believe

Cold hot air balloon

First week of second sem was such a roller coaster ride. Nothing else can explain it.

It was such a busy week and the schedule is just pamatay. torture.

so the highlight of the week would be our NCM and RLE class last thursday. It was awesome! I thought at first it would be boring and the CIs would be all serious...but they weren't! I learned a lot. :) I'm actually very excited for next week because we get to interview a patient..OMG! first ever "nursing" experience! hahah.

my brain is not working, i dunno what else to type :(

I just wanna say that i had fun the whole week :)

passport #9

dear world,

i decided to continue making passports! what inspired me? well, i was reading my fourth year passports and they just made me smile and showed how important life is. so imma continue kay?! :))
However, instead of Wednesdays i decided to make one on any days of the week since there's school and stuff to do and i wouldn't really know when i can write one. so yeah!

Starbucks planner 2010

Thank you Mandee for tweeting about this last night. I've been waiting for the planner since the mid of october and now IT'S FINALLY OUT. Unfortunately, i have no picture of the planner since people are prohibited from taking pictures of the planner inside the SB stores. Is the planner pretty? well, for me it's okay. that's all i can say. It's pretty much the same as last year's except that the cover is somehow velvet-y..uhh you know how felt paper feels like when you touch it? yeah it's like that! =)) haha. It comes in three different covers (nope, not the colors)..I think the covers show the different stages of coffee-making. I'm not entirely sure. :| :)) Another thing that was changed was the layout. Remember how the past planners have horizontal spaces for each day? Now it's vertical, like the belle de jour power planner, only not as detailed. It's still simple and elegant. I prefer the horizontal one though. So, in order to get the planner you need to buy 9 holiday featured beverages (9 stickers) and 8 starbucks beverage of your choice 'cept for bottled beverages, water and fruit juices (8 stickers). That's 17 stickers! :> and i have good news! PEPPERMINT MOCHA IS BACK!!! I LOVE THIS ONE! :)) The planner includes discount coupons :> yey!

I;m so excited for Christmas! When i entered Starbucks awhile ago i felt like it was already Christmas! The red color and snowy decorations excite me! :)
