A WONDERFUL MONDAY TO ALL!

Happy Valentines Day!

Love is a symbol of eternity.
It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all
memory of a beginning and all fear of an end. ~Author Unknown~

It’s Monday and today is Valentine Day! Before I start doing anything, please allow me to greet you all a Happy Valentine’s Day. I might not able to visit you all guys, for my day seems to be as busy as always, but I’d like you to know that you are all remembered this heart day. Love you friends!

quick note & a collection of inspirational quotes for January 2011

Hey friends, I know I was absent here again for so long. I haven’t visited your blog as well and I felt sorry about that. Things here just got even busier every day. The new assignments that we got made us all busy as a bee plus the fact that the number of staff in our new department was now reduced into only 5 staff including the driver. It’s a little bit tiring but I know there is always good thing waiting ahead for all of us. And of course, I am also hopeful for a more travel this year. I’d love to explore more the Cordillera Region and the Visayas Region where we were assigned. So, goodluck to that!

Anyway, it’s a little bit late but I want to share to you once again my collection of inspirational quotes for the month of January:

side trip at Magat Dam

Before going back to Manila, we decided to see the Magat Dam. Anyway, it is just a few minutes ride from where we stayed.

It was a lovely morning and a beautiful place greeted us. I’ll let the pictures below tell you what a wonderful experience I got there:

Oh, isn’t it beautiful? My first Ifugao trip indeed gave me a very memorable experience.
