101 things to do before you hit big 4 0.


Scuba diving.......

The lesson should take 3 hours or even 3 days for introduction. But I have always wanted scuba diving and to try exploring underwater. While the opportunity comes and go. I had it 3 mins. intro, well, lets say 15 mins., lol. Grabbed the gear, never tried wetsuit before and bhoy! its wet,hahahaha. And noticed, I look like a retard (sorry for the word) It did fit eventually but had a difficulty as my oversize belly was the reason,grrr ( compliment of the food eaten that week). Followed the instructions, tested the gear ( the oxygen tank seems heavy,hmmm), inhale and exhale and the most important thing, don't panic. And in case it happens DON'T LET GO OF THE MOUTH PIECE. All the instructions on board, presence of mind and dive....Was enjoying the whole adventure, although it wasn't as deep as I have expected. And I don't know how many times I use the hand signals. But most of the time was thumbs up, aheeem!It was a great feeling just to admire the beauty underwater and made you realize how to look after and take care of the nature God given to us.

I never thought of experiencing such great adventure as the whole diving will cost you not only the time but your budget,lol. Surely i will have another go , who knows when??? Thanks for the quick but unforgettable experience ayukVip.

So, I still have 100 things to achieve, will I complete the task???? I'm running out of time here, heeelp!!!

And before I forget...I found NEMO, happy days!!!

Tarsus Syrichta

Tarsier monkey is the world's smallest primate.With enormous eyes, each eyeball is approximately 16 mm in diameter and is as large as their entire brain. Has a very long hind limbs. The head and the body range from 10 to 15 cm in length, but the hind limbs are about twice this long, including the feet, and they also have a slender tail from 20 to 25 cm long. Their fingers are also elongated, with the third finger being about the same length as the upper arm. Most of the digits have nails, but the second and third toes of the hind feet bear claws instead, which are use for grooming. Tarsiers have very soft velvety fur, which is generally buff, beige, or ochre in color.

Regarded as critically endangered and was listed among the 25 most threatened primates by Conservation International and the IUCN/SCC Primate Specialist Group.

Having visited and seen the Tarsier in Bohol, let's support the good cause and conservation for
the future to come. The visit to Bohol was short but able to see the beautiful sites and sounds. Don't miss Bohol when you visit The Philippines.

Kalinawan


"Morning has broken, like the first morning.
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird.
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning.
Praise for the springing fresh from the word.............. "

Yeeeees it is!!! The name Kalinawan (calm, peace) speaks for itself. The view is the most enchanting, breathtaking, fantastic, amazing, beautiful.You will be lost for words, when you see the view right before your eyes.
The view will surprise you even more when you wake up watching the sun rises slowly.How the clouds changes its shape and color. Crisp morning scene (like kellogs? nope! can't compare,lol). Just the beauty of it makes you realize how nature is great and the Creator of it all.
Have you ever dreamt of jumping over to the sea without a diving board? Absolutely YES! and the katutobong Jacob never waited a moment to decide, except for Kikay (pa kan-a lang na siya) and well done to tMye, one of the Kabir's have made it, big splash tho,hehehe. And the best part of the morning is the breakfast, yum!yum! How I wish I have a chef like her. Over to the floating cottage where we spent the breakfast and yes, my mother made it via kayak, thank goodness for kayak! legs are too fragile to swim across tho. It was her week long 70th birthday celebration and surely she did have a ball.
I can only say one thing to the host. A million thanks to ayuk Vip and tGing, you made our vacation memorable and exciting. It was worth it!! Great job for putting up the place.

blog??

I created a blog sometime last 3 mos. ago and for some reason I could'nt logged in. Can't remember the password,grrrr!!! So I have to create another one.
I guess the whole thing about creating blog is to write something or comment on something and simply expressing what you have in mind and for others to read and criticize about, hahahaha.

Will visit my blog as often as i can,hmmm maybe.....
