This was taken several years ago. The whole graduating department class stayed overnight in Caleruega, Batangas.
Sun was rising and it was day for new beginnings for all of us. I remembered we were all counting down the days leading up to the graduation and the atmosphere was electrified until the G-day. hahaha
More of Scenic Sundays here. I'm enjoying this new blog sharing. ☺
After a couple of blunders, I finally understood this Meme. In fact, I found one for each day in one blog. I hope this won't lose it's novelty but I don't think it would. This is a wonderful kind of sharing so thanks to Amy's "Then Sings My Soul Saturdays."
I heard this song last year. It was memorable to me because I was feeling lost (until now). I went through a career change, which is presently starting to get off the ground but I was still facing things from family. This song would lift me up and I can feel the peace that I've experienced after accepting our Lord as my Personal Savior. I just have to remember. The lyrics - just under the cut. ☺
There was a contest over at Ordinary Inspirations by Traci, which started from February 01 and ended February 14 called the Love Dare Challenge, while I'm still "man-less" that puts me out but I was moved by this story and wanted to share in this month of Hearts.
The story was shared to my Mom last 2006 when she attended her high school reunion. This is about a Math teacher and a Biology teacher. We'll call our two protagonists, John and Janet (not their real names) for the sake of their privacy and all that.
When Mom was still in high school, she remembered these two teachers were being teased to be the likely couple, of course during her stay at her Alma Mater, it didn't happen and John didn't come forward with his feelings. Through the intervening years until that reunion, Mom found out that each had eventually married their respective girlfriend and boyfriend and they went their separate ways.
Call it serendipity or destiny but Janet and John apparently found themselves somewhere in California. I had goose bumps when Mom told me this. Wow, what are the odds of meeting your love after so much time had passed?
The two former high school teachers touched based with each other and it was soon learned that their respective spouses had passed away years before. John's feelings for Janet reawakened and so in-between catching up and forging new memories together, they got married. They spent their lives together until John passed away several years after. I know it ended sadly but I'm sure they made it count.
Whether you 're clocking the 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM grind or freelancing from your home, if your work constitutes on sitting on the chair for long periods of time, you'll certainly hear your body screaming with aches. When that happens it's time to assess you work area or station.
The Assessment Posture Take note your posture while seated in front of the computer. Are you slouching? This can bring discomfort for your back. Try straightening up by tucking in those sleepy abdominal muscles in to help support your back.
Adjust the height of the seat. Our elbows want comfort too. So they want to be perpendicular to the table and not at some crazy angle and don't forget to set your foot flat on the floor and not on a really, really small footstool.
I'll to post it now because I'll be busy tomorrow. Hope you got your flowers, romantic dinners, quiet beach strolls plans, sunrise/sunset gazing etc ready. Have a fun time.
I always enjoyed watching the behind-the-scenes footage and I was lucky that our cable provider used to carry MNET channel. After listening to him singing the track, it subsequently made me want to connect with other fans and I found one through Heinz' site. It was several years back and it was unfortunate that we've lost touch.
Album Thoughts

The freshman album had a unified tone throughout which was interesting because even with the slower tempo songs, it still felt the songs were connected with the following song and so on. I don't think I've listened to something like this from my respective favorite artists from their own freshman albums. So that little difference made buying this album that cost me two arms and a leg (joke) and finding an appropriate courier to deliver it to me, worthwhile. Although after seeing my credit card bill afterward, I'd say, Ouch. Lolz.
Where was I? Oh, some thoughts. The album gave me a tip of a diversified range of music styles to tickle my modest musical palate. Also, I've noticed that soloist can easily have a signature prevailing in their tracks. For Heinz, I didn't find it yet. Maybe my ears are not that trained or I was practically in Cloud 9 every time I listened to this album. Anyway, just by the tracks, the vocals were varied that added flavor. It wasn't over the place too. I don't know if for his second and third album, his signature style of singing has exerted itself.
Rate: 4 stars out of five
The Tracks
Next Stop To Happiness An upbeat song that suggested the person have been striving for all opportunities and finally it paid off and the person's on the fast lane. This is the first song off the 12-track album.
The Way It Is A mid-tempo song about love's dying embers and what it would take to keep it.
All Day, All Night This track brings up the tempo a bit to tease the listener. It showcases Heinz lower vocal range. This is a hopeful track about treating the lucky person right "straight from the heart of mine," which will send girls swooning.
