sneak preview

bravely facing the harsh sun ...

didn't mean to be overly dramatic here,

but

the sun felt like it was literally biting

my skin,

when i took this shot!

oOOo enjoy your weekend! oOOo

helping mother nature...

• now, if only ALL of us learn how to segregate our trash . . .

that's one very important step. :)

places

* shot at cubao, quezon city *

been staying here in QC,

for the past

two years, already...

i must say, it is really different

from where

we stayed,

two years ago...

at

mendez-nuñez, cavite.

but of course, both have their own unique charms... :)

rainy and sunny days

* a shot from the car, yesterday *

that's an overpass which leads towards that mall (SM) . . .

(we had to buy grocery stuffs, hence we were "forced" to go out)

it has been raining here.. but sometimes the sun do come out.

though only briefly.

like in the picture below. :)

the lone mushroom

start of the rainy (and humid!) season...

been seeing lots of mushrooms around, too!!

but i still have to find the edible ones... this mushroom might look nice, but i'm sure it's NOT EDIBLE

{...or isn't it?}

:D

*took this shot at Clark Air Base, Pampanga

buzzzzzy...

saw

this

busy

bee

on

this

moss

rose

while

i was

waiting

for

a

text

message...

nope, not my plant/garden, but this was at the university, where i will be going, in a while...

it's already a FRIDAY!!!! :D

my thanks, Kris, for helping me with the settings on this blog... i know it still needs lots of tune-ups, but have to rush... ;))

thank you, thank you, thank you!!! ;))

Parking...

really glad this service is available at Gateway Mall ...

very convenient, specially during weekends, when you expect the malls to overflow with mall-goers! honestly, i prefer going to the malls during weekdays.. less people traffic, and lots of car parking spaces available!!! ;D

*posting while i can..not much work to do tonight, so...*

last weekend (july 17) ...

*That's Gelo, more interested in listening to the music...*

(rather than on his scenic sorroundings...!!)

kids nowadays, huh?! ;p

these pictures were shot at a park inside Clark Airbase, Pampanga

Up close (and personal)

*butterfly who took a short rest at our doorway*

butterflies (among other creepy/cute crawlies) are really so interesting! ..and i guess it is their season right now..been seeing "more than the usual numbers" of them these past few days.. really so lucky to have caught a shot of this one, up close ... !!

now, am wondering when we will visit a butterfly farm again... lol.

oh, we didn't go to Indang... we went to Pampanga at the Clark Special Economic Zone (formerly the Clark Airbase, of the US Air Force), instead, earlier today.. :o)

(random) cloudy weekend shots...

**angry clouds at Taal Lake.**..

**a wedding souvenir**

** Mang Emil and Lorna, his horse; definitely the best pair there is, at that place...**

went to Indang, Cavite last weekend . . . and we decided to go horseback riding (among other things..) at Tagaytay... might -just might!!- go there again this weekend, since it's Father's Day..

[going there is wonderful.. the air is definitely cleaner!]

that is, if our plan to go to Pampanga won't push through... :o)

Haircut

haircut...

yup, gelo's haircut signifies the end of summer, for us...

it's school season once again...

and with it also the homeworks, field trips, projects, P-T meetings... etcetera!

LOL...

..almost forgot to mention: the rainy season, too! :o)

ps. trying so hard not to be obvious while taking those barber shop shots...!!!

thank heavens for camera phones! lol...

Rainy Season

*took this shot while inside the taxi...*








used my "handy-dandy" (from Blue's Clues...lol) phonecam.

that's one of the overpass structures (highway) located here in Quezon City (Philippines)...which leads to a mall. yeah, even if it's raining, people still flock there. :p


...and yes, it's starting to rain again...
loving it!
but of course...too much rain is another thing! :)

sunset clouds

yesterday's highway sunset

we went to visit my father-in-law at the hospital...we chose to pass through this highway, to get away from "more" traffic... after that terrible traffic at the city.

taking shots while inside a speeding car is fun..you never really know if you got your intended subjects, or not. ;p
