Life 101: Legacy of a Person...

Legacy something transmitted by or received from an ancestor or predecessor or from the past ayun sa friend ko na si Miriam.

Last week was a very sad for me because I had seen my mom crying, I asked my mom whats the reason and she told me that my uncle died at that moment I also fall in tears. I opted not to go work to comfort my Mom. The greatest thing that my uncle told me was " Myk mag-aral ka para may marating ka sa buhay mo at maabot mo yung pangarap mo; taasan mo yung pangarap mo malay mo magka totoo yan balang araw" / He told me to study hard to achieve my goals and dreams in Life. 

Years had passed, I achieve my goals and dreams in Life in my early age...

"A man without ambition is dead. A man with ambition but no love is dead. A man with ambition and love for his blessings here on earth is ever so alive. Having been alive, it won't be so hard in the end to lie down and rest.

My 3 favorite spots: Philippines 2011

My 3 Favorite Spots in the Philippines


Chocolate Hills : Bohol
Myk Rome with his Lucky charm (Baby Pare) in Chocolate Hills

 

Chocolate Hills tops on my list because it's one of the most breath taking scenery in the Philippines. they have been declared the country's third National Geological Monument and proposed for inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage List. My Journey to chocolate hills was a dream come true because when I was a little boy I dream to go there, the locals are friendly and the food was GREAT try visiting Bohol.  

 

MT. Romelo : Famy Laguna

Mt. Romelo was second in my list because it captured my Heart, being a Freelance Photographer Buruwisan falls offered me different subjects for my photo-shoot. Take note that MT. Romelo is also heavens place for mountaineering group because it offers NATURE at its best...

Bohol Beach Club : Dauis Bohol

Bohol Beach Club one of the Best beach club in Phillipnes.


Bohol Beach Club  offers world class services plus the locals working there are very courteous and respectful ,  I can tell that employees there are honest because they returned my net-book when I lost it in the beach front. I forget it because I was too busy taking pictures of breath taking scenery especially the sunset in the Beach....

We have cool swags from our sponsors  - Eurotel, Multiply.com, Bloggermanila.com, Megaworld Corp, Yoshinoya, Turfsiteph.net, Norton Antivirus, Digits Trading, Thunderbird Resorts Rizal, SM Cyberzone, Sony Ericsson and Blogger.com.  And if you want to donate in our hourly raffle, pls inform us so that we can include it in our grand giveaway, plus promotion of your blogsite on stage.

Food
I have to deliver this message early to you that food and beverages are not provided for our event, I'm having some problems getting food sponsors that can feed us all, but I like to inform everyone that you can bring your own food, or buy your food in a nearby resto or fast food in SM North EDSA. But wait...we have Fruitas Ice Candies for everyone, just grab an ice candy at their kart inside our event.

Laptops and wifi
SM Cyberzone in SM North EDSA is a wifi zone, feel free to bring your wifi enabled devices and gadgets, but make sure that you keep your gadgets safe and never leave your things unattended. ME, my staff, the mall are not accountable for any damage or loss of your personal property, so let's be responsible. If you spotted something fishy or suspicious, then report it to our staff so that we can police it and have a fun and safe event.
