trippings
i guess i’ve grown up a little bit. i am no longer a slave to my shopping though i make impertinent purchases still. i have substituted an old vice with a new one and what better way to.
it’s not really a new one, but rather i stepped it up a notch; i am now gratifying my senses, my taste buds. my dad taught me that you haven’t lived your life if you deprive yourself of good eats. and i have been living my life pretty damn good. since i’ve declared a bar-ban, i have been spending time at home and eating out. i think i have covered 40% of the restaurants at morato and it’s my personal mission to experience all of morato’s culinary offerings. i love morato especially on a sunday, it’s very laid back with people who enjoys food less the crazy clubbing teens. well depends on the time, sometimes you get to dine with a whole family with their young children running around screaming. did you know that cafe breton has a branch in morato? it’s somewhat hidden and has a few clientelle. it’s not as busy as starbucks and seattle’s best, the way i like coffeeshops to be. the kind that gives you a homey and warm feeling, very relax and laid back. i like going there with friends and we do our catching up, or planning a trip or just kicking around.

i’m getting into the groove of things. i have been training really hard to get my pro-yogi build. i need to get re-certified as an iyengar yoga instructor. i had my certification when i was in india 2005, i needed to have 300 hours of classes; that’s like 200 sessions. right after, i had my certification as an ashtanga yoga instructor at istanbul 2006. i like ashtanga better that i only practiced it rather than iyengar. and now, my iyengar sucks so i’m planning to get recertification. the problem is i’m still doing ashtanga at the ashtanga center at emerald avenue and the iyengar center is in makati, which is too far from me. crossing fingers, i will be able to have a month long vacation end of this year to visit mom in florida and do some serious iyengar training there. i already inquired at iyengar institute at san francisco for certification. hopefully i can start teaching yoga again.

peace be with you
it has been a laughing matter, a staple answer in beauty pageants, world peace. but yet world peace is not something to joke about. so many lives have been sacrificed, blood spilled all in effort to have a better place to live in. quite ironic actually, with the casualties, damages, the pain and suffering. the war in the middle east, the battle in the mindanao, the endless fights all in the name of peace.
it’s sad but that’s reality. the bright side of it is, reality doesn’t have to be. we are in a position to affect and effect changes. it might sound bull straight up from some inspirational shit head selling positivity, but it’s the truth. i really believe that everyone can do it. our collective small contributions to peace will pave way to having a world were conflict is a thing of the past. if we open our hearts and listen, if we take time to hear each other, there would be no war, no famine, no conflicts…
I see this one day
When all the world will hear us
That someday when all will stand before us
Singing one song together
Everywhere singing
We are gonna love you people of the world
We are gonna make you a better world
We will all respect you people of the world
We are gonna make you a better world
yes, i do believe in world peace. 
promising that this blog will become earth friendly; power to the universe!
