I hit the link: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4FfXHUEH94&feature=share">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4FfXHUEH94&feature=share</a> then I just found myself checking more about it:<br />

Yep as they told on their profile they are twins and God their voices are really soothing and comforting. Now that the weather is breezing cold and this lazy weekend night will really make me hook into nice kind of music.<br />
<br />
So for a li'l background 'coz you might wonder they look Korean, yes they are, but they were born and raised in Australia.<br />
<br />
They do have their own channel: <span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><a class="yt-uix-redirect-link" dir="ltr" href="http://youtube.com/jayesslee" rel="nofollow" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #4272db; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: underline;" target="_blank" title="http://youtube.com/jayesslee">http://youtube.com/jayesslee</a> You may want to check and find out what I am talking here.</span><br />

I love Tamia for the song Officially Missing You. Js' remake would make you hit more on their other uploaded videos. Some of my favorites were Price Tag by Jessie J, Just The Way You Are of Bruno Mars and Fireflies of Owl City.<br />
<br />
Then when I posted the link on my facebook, there were comments posted that they love these twins! Oh well, I hope I can check out more of them.<br />
<br />
But now I'll be looking more for some good old time music like this: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4FfXHUEH94&feature=share">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4FfXHUEH94&feature=share</a>.<br />

Yes, palagsing! It is not singsing (ring) or hatsing (sniff). It is a native delicacy from Butuan City. <div><br /></div><div>April 10 - We went to the Butuan's market to check on whatever we can see there. We were told by the local tourist guide that we should buy this delicacy from their place. So we went around. </div><div><br /></div><div>Two young girls under a colorful big umbrella were selling different kakanin. They immediately smiled at us and we asked if they have "pagsing" and they corrected us "palagsing". We bought two packs (5 suman in a pack) for Php20 only. It is very cheap actually.</div><div><br /></div><div>So as we arrived in our quarters, I excitedly opened the suman and gave the others their share. It tastes like sumang balinghoy, the texture is like sago, then it has coconut strips. </div><div><br /></div><div><i>As I researched in Wikipedia, Palagsing is actually made in Banza (an old poblacion in Butuan). It is actually made from Lumbiya where Unaw, the lumbiya starch, which is reaped from Palm trees. The reason why the texture is like sago and tastes like balinghoy is because of the combination of "unaw" (young coconut) and brown sugar and it was actually boiled for 30 minutes to produce its soft consistency.</i></div><div><br /></div><div>I loved its taste and the others too. This is a new food that's worth sharing.</div><div><br /></div><div>----</div><div>picture taken by me</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>nicole vlamforthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01126006807993857552noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6870777431207275346.post-42491034861562488312011-03-14T23:11:00.000-07:002011-03-14T23:15:59.313-07:00We are safeBecause I have more important things to do..i am posting this for your info...<div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; "><span class="fontheadline" style="font: normal normal normal 26px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; padding-top: 2px; padding-bottom: 2px; "><a href="http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/nation/view/20110315-325460/Please-dont-do-foolish-things-">Please don’t do foolish things … </a></span><br /><p class="fontsubheadline" style="font: normal normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; "></p><span class="fontbyline" style="font: normal normal normal 11px/normal Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); text-decoration: none; padding-top: 2px; padding-bottom: 2px; ">By Jocelyn R.

It displaces the radioactive iodine if that is the radioactive particle,” Tayag said at a press conference.</p><p>But potassium iodide could be useless if a different radioactive element was involved, like plutonium, Tayag said. “If plutonium is the radioactive particle, that would entail a different treatment so please don’t do foolish things,” he said.</p><p><strong>Worst-case scenario</strong></p><p>Assuming that a worst-case scenario would happen in the country, Tayag said it was advisable to “just remove your clothes and shoes and take a shower to decontaminate yourselves.”</p><p>If radioactive particles reached the country, its components would have “decayed depending on its half-life” because of the long distance it traveled, Tayag said. Manila is about 3,000 kilometers south of Tokyo.</p><p>Although exposure to radiation is a health concern with acute and long-term effects, such a condition is influenced by several factors: the type of radioactive particles involved, the amount and the duration of exposure and the distance from the source of the radioactive leak, Tayag explained.</p><p>Early symptoms of radiation exposure include vomiting, nausea, diarrhea and fever. Symptoms for more serious conditions include headache and hair loss, among others. Chronic effects of extreme radiation exposure include cancers and genetic malformations.<br />“I understand where this fear is coming from ... because if you look at the map, the Philippines is just an inch away from Japan but there is really no need to panic or to worry,” Tayag said.</p><p>Dr. Soe Nyunt-U, country director of the World Health Organization, said there was no need for “undue alarm” as prevailing wind conditions showed that the Philippines was out of the path of the plume emanating from the site of the nuclear explosion.</p><p>“Even if this happens, radioactive materials won’t come to the Philippines. There are minimal public safety issues even in Japan and what is happening right now doesn’t have any implications to the rest of the members of the Western Pacific region,” Soe said.</p><p>Alumanda de la Rosa, Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (PNRI) chief, said “there is no nuclear cloud from Japan” even after the second explosion at a nuclear plant Monday morning.</p><p><strong>Country not in danger</strong></p><p>De la Rosa also noted that information from the nuclear plant showed that the Philippines was not in danger.</p><p>“From what we’ve been monitoring, no radiation will reach here. There will be no exposure to the public,” she said.</p><p>De la Rosa said the International Atomic Energy Agency placed the Fukishima explosion, which injured several workers, at Level 4, on a 7-level scale.</p><p>The 1986 meltdown in Chernobyl was placed at Level 7, which indicates a major release of radioactive materials and widespread and extended health and environmental effects.</p><p>A Level 4 incident means that there “is an accident but there is no significant effect offsite,” the PNRI official said.</p><p><strong>Normal levels</strong></p><p>In a statement on Monday, the PNRI said radiation levels in the country’s atmosphere was normal and showed “no increase” since the cooling reactors in the Dai-ichi plant broke after last Friday’s devastating earthquake and tsunami.</p><p>Should there be a complete nuclear meltdown and a nuclear cloud forms, a remote possibility for now, scientists said the plume from the site of the incident would not pass Philippine territory as of March 14, PNRI said, citing an advisory from the World Meteorological Organization.</p><p>The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said the winds from Japan would not travel to the country.</p><p>PAGASA chief forecaster Robert Sawi said the winds were moving west to east, or from Japan to the Pacific Ocean.</p><p>Sawi and De la Rosa appealed to the public not to spread text messages about apocalyptic scenarios. “It does not help us at all,” De la Rosa said.</p><p>She noted that the public should wait for the advisories from the Department of Science and Technology or call the concerned agencies to confirm reports.</p><p>Malacañang also chided people for spreading rumors. “Science Secretary (Mario) Montejo says there’s no immediate threat to the country from the nuclear accident,” Communications Secretary Ricky Carandang said.</p><p>President Benigno Aquino III met with Montejo and other officials for a briefing on the situation in Japan.</p><p>In Central Visayas, government agencies called a press conference to counter the text messages. <strong><em>With reports from Dona Pazzibugan in Manila and Candeze R.

There were no registrants for the 1st Inter-high school Cosplay competition and somehow frustrating. But, it was a blessing disguise.

They even asked me if I can go with them on March 5 event in Manila but I said the school and I (as their teacher) will not be liable to whatever possible thing to happen. They were insisting that I really come.</div><div><br /></div><div>I'll think about it. Though my cuzn Redd and Shark will be coming so there's a big possibility that I will come.</div><div><br /></div><div>Well, I say the cosplay event made our students boost their morale, level up their self-confidence and build friendships with other cosplayers (even they are coming from the Elementary and High School department).</div><div><br /></div><div>I was even caught in surprise when representatives from OU Lucena came to support the event. Thank you to them..:)</div><div><br /></div><div>Yes, I am still in cloud 9 about the turn out of events. :)</div><div><br /></div><div>And sadly, this is my last year of organizing this event. :|</div><div><br /></div><div>Just look at our pictures..</div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238);

As if dementors have sucked my happiness within.</div><div><br /></div><div>I feel alone. I felt alone.</div><div><br /></div><div>No one actually knew this but my wedding was at stake just few days ago. I was about to say the wedding's off. I was so confused what to do. I don't know who to talk with this matter. My bestfriend's too busy. But i do understand her actually.</div><div><br /></div><div>Because of our budget, his budget is low now..he's taking seven medicines for his heart, blood pressure and others. He has given me two options:</div><div>Option A: Civil wedding in Feb and church wedding in December</div><div>Option B: Simple church wedding in May and continuous budgeting for a new home..</div><div><br /></div><div>I don't want to pressure him and stress him out because of his health condition. Though honestly, it broke my heart. I told him long time ago to have his budgeting and I am too. Though due to unavoidable circumstances and health problems, most of the money were alloted to it.</div><div><br /></div><div>Because I don't want to pressure him, I chose option A with a weak heart. I asked what is his plan if we'll be married in Feb., I am still teaching here in Lucena. How can we stay in one roof if his uncle will be coming soon, there will be no room for me and our family to be. </div><div><br /></div><div>If he hadn't been too honest maybe the wedding was off. His uncle will be coming but if that happens, they had transfer a new house. There's so much mess in his work, that he wanted to find a new one sooner too. He has plans to go to Dubai too. Too much heartache.</div><div><br /></div><div>I asked him to talk to his parents and sisters first about the wedding. I was too tired to think that time. My heart was tired.</div><div><br /></div><div>Then I told him okay option B. But let's talk this face to face. </div><div><br /></div><div>He then asked if I will be happy in the future with him. That time, I can't answer him back because as I said tired and my heart too. My tears fell on my cheeks and my eyes can't stop pouring all those encapsulated emotions bursting. </div><div><br /></div><div>December 24. I said sorry to him for being selfish. Sorry for the ill reaction I had. I was just too tired and pressured. He said sorry too. We reconciled and I think there's a happy ending waiting for us.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>nicole vlamforthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01126006807993857552noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6870777431207275346.post-62653725503663254572010-11-04T07:26:00.000-07:002010-11-04T08:01:50.909-07:00Movie MarathonI really had a great time with past editors of the Heartbeat..I missed them so much..Though, di maxadong obvious..<div><br /></div><div>I never thought of attending because i'm too damn busy.

Nakakamiss din. Masaya kasi ang pakiramdam ko kapag naandun ako. hindi ko alam pero yung adrenaline ko ang bilis. Para laging may aksyon. </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Parang nabubuhayan ako sa ingay ng Lrt/MRT, ang busina ng taxi o bus, ang boses ng mga tao nagmamadali. Hay. </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Pero kahapon, binuhay ko ulit ang account ko sa jobstreet. Nagbabasakali ako na maghanap ng trabaho. Mayroong mga clerical positions na available pero sa Taguig, Libis. kelangan ko sa may Quezon City area lang para hindi ako mahihirapan sa pagcomute. Nag-iisip tuloy ako kung itutuloy ko ba talaga ang propesyon ko bilang isang guro. Trainor siguro pede pa pero napapagod ako masyado para maging guro. Gusto kong magpahinga. Hay.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Naisip ko ding mag-business kaya naisip kong tanungin si Gino kung may balak ba si Amen a magbukas ng bakeshop kasi may available resources ako at interested din ako. Pero for the mean time gusto ko muna maghanap ng trabaho para may maibigay din ako para sa pamilya ko. Dream ko din kaya magkaron ng bakeshop parang Pan de Manila ang style. Mala-coffee shop din. Kahit hindi siya maging super successful, eh maging kilala sya sa magiging market namin at masustain ang income. Sana magkatotoo ito. Gusto ko talaga.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Anyway, bago ako mag-isip ng kung anu-ano ay kailangan ko munang tapusin ang paggawa ko ng grades at siguro tapusin na rin this month until next month ang workbook ko. Cheer up, Skye!</p>nicole vlamforthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01126006807993857552noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6870777431207275346.post-75357659628302405322010-10-28T07:11:00.000-07:002010-10-28T07:13:59.307-07:00Facing the Reality<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 8px; margin-right: 8px; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-left: 8px; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); "><p>I just read Aldrin's blog..thank you..</p><p><br /></p><p>I have to say that I was too rude for my students for the past weeks. I am sorry too because they have to do things seriously, the regional press conference is a serious business and i would like to go to the nationals.</p><p>This is my last year. and I have to prove myself at least to those who have high eye brows on me. But most is for myself and for my students. </p><p>That's why i got disappointed that the training with Manila trainers was cancelled due to many questions that should have at least helped the students growth and development. Good thing was Ma'am Kathy is always here to give me options and enlightenment. </p><p>i have so many things and issues knocking my brains out. First, my dad's condition, the grades that should be finished before the RS, the training of the students, the wedding soon, and how can i rekindle my time and presence with my fiance.</p><p>I'm sorry HB because I have to leave you and leaving you is to hard. Im loving you but you have to be matured. There are always people who come and go. And maybe this is my time to say I have done enough.</p><p>I'm just afraid of who will be cuddling you enough to grow and to mature. But im hoping for the best. Sabi nga ni Sir Abet Oriacel knina, "pagaling ng pagaling na talaga ang HB! galing nyo tlaga!"</p><p>I hope others can see that too. But they are too busy of looking at our faults especially my faults (whatever it is). I am hoping too that it is not in a personal level because that is too unfair for the HB. I am trying to do my best. I am trying to do new things. Innovation maybe is really in my blood. Journalism makes me more creative and to think beyond the box. I would like to risk just to hone and improve my students' skills, attitude and totality.</p><p>This makes me sick.</p><p>They just can't understand me. :(</p><p>...as always.</p></div>nicole vlamforthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01126006807993857552noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6870777431207275346.post-30140032858594847202010-10-22T06:58:00.000-07:002010-10-22T07:50:40.558-07:00Moral BoosterI am really not a trainer.<div><br /></div><div>What i do is just to chat with my students, tell what I know, and tell them what they should review or read.</div><div><br /></div><div>That's all.</div><div><br /></div><div>But today, as I told my dad that "you are actually there as a moral booster." Wow, it was a hit! I really never thought of it because I believe that my students were the one who really wrote each of the articles, writings they had won and failed. </div><div><br /></div><div>I just cheered them up and told them that they have to pray before their competition and to think positive. That's all.</div><div><br /></div><div>But now I am boosting myself up...Yes, I am not a trainer but I am their moral supporter...</div><div><br /></div><div>Hahaha..</div><div><br /></div><div>para lang si Marlu.

were left out, but they are still the best!I thought I can move on...<div><br /></div><div>But I hope I could. </div><div><br /></div><div>After the Division School's Press Conference result came out. I know I had to do something. To think something.</div><div><br /></div><div>I prayed hard before the start of the program, I asked God, "Lord, pabalato mo na sa akin mga bata oh. Please. Silang lahat manalo." But it slipped in my mind the number 18. The lucky 18. My number besides 8. That I understood that three will be left out.</div><div><br /></div><div>I was really thorned knowing it. Im half happy and half sad.</div><div><br /></div><div>Seeing Marlu cried made my heart broken into pieces. I can feel his pain. I wish i could carry all the pain that he's feeling two days ago. I have seen his pictures but i couldnt handle the fact that the note in his work is "not following directions". But what duh is the instruction.</div><div><br /></div><div>However, I was happy to see that Mara is okay. She's one of the new batch (including Marlu). When I told her, "Ate Mara, next year ulit!" She told me, "talaga mam? Sige po." I can still see her joy. And Leanne, I know her pain too but she's tough enough to handle it. </div><div><br /></div><div>How can I tell the rest that I will be leaving soon. Just give me time. I will have time. What I have to do is to prepare them for the regionals and for the nationals. Cross fingers. And that we have to produce a very well prepared and meaty newspaper.</div><div><br /></div><div>here we come Sta. Rosa!

But put them together side-by-side and they have the power to haunt you for the rest of your life: What if? What if? What if? I don't know how your story ended but if what you felt then was true love, then it's never too late. If it was true then, why wouldn't it be true now? You need only the courage to follow your heart. I don't know what a love like Juliet's feels like - love to leave loved ones for, love to cross oceans for but I'd like to believe if I ever were to feel it, that I will have the courage to seize it. And, Claire, if you didn't, I hope one day that you will. All my love, Juliet </span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; "><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; ">I'm starting to fall in love again with him..and literally my heart is aching now..aching coz he's so far from me..im terribly missing him..every second that im away from him is like taking away a percentage of my oxygen for breathing..</span></div>nicole vlamforthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01126006807993857552noreply@blogger.com0
