Today's thoughts

It's been so long since my last entry with the same title and now I'm having writer's block. I feel like I do not know how to write anymore. Let's see... we can begin on what happened today and perhaps we can also discuss what I did over the weekend...

22  May 2021, Saturday

We celebrated Philippines-Australia Friendship Day! And this was a special celebration because it marks the 75th year of Australia and Philippines diplomatic relations. We planted trees at the Arroceros Forest Park in Ermita, Manila. I got to host the event. Additionally, the Australia Embassy was also looking for some promotional materials that they can use for their campaigns so April, Arvin, and myself did a recorded interview. It was nice to know that Mayad Studio was the hired photographer and videographer for that event. Ambassador Steven J. Robinson, Secretary Martin Andanar, City Administrator of Manila, and Dr. Magdalena Lim were the special guests. Retired Lt. Col. Querubin was also there. It was indeed an honour and privilege to be assigned as the emcee for this occasion. 

Oh! There's another thing I want to highlight!!! Mico and I had our lunch at Intramuros and guess what, we rented Bambikes and biked inside the Walled City!!! Hahaha it was so much fun! and so RANDOM!!! Nag-bike kami ng tanghaling tapat!!! Pambihira, 11AM to 12NN!!! SUNOG!!!

En route to finding whatever lunch there is... We ended up going to Intramuros! So random, I love it!

Ze husbandry will kill me for posting this chubby pic of his, haha! Here we are resting under a tree, with our Bambikes parked.

One of the five photos we took of our random Bambike tour.

Sobrang init nito but I just wanted to have my photo taken with that backdrop.

Here's the Bambike rental store beside San Agustin Church. It's only 100/hr! :)

I got to host the event, yey! Such an honour and privilege :)


23 May 2021, Sunday

Was feeling a bit under the weather perhaps because of the biking under the intense sun. Also I had my first day of period on Saturday and I guess that contributed to my weakness. But Sunday was also a FUN DAY with family!!! :) We ate dinner together and did some makeshift videoke using YouTube and a hand held microphone with speaker. Even if I was feeling a bit weary, the family had great fun! :) Family talaga is always THE BEST!
