I have this penchant for lamps, for flashlights and anything that provides light. Maybe because I abhor darkness, so flashlights are among my top choices when buying gifts.
-
You gave me an idea of what to give to someone on her birthday. June is coming and it is the time when it is a bit windy and rainy and there are chances that brownouts can occur.
Having this solar lamp will be useful.
Actually at my parents house they all have these solar lamps which were so useful when typhoon Glenda hit Bicol also.
I also have a rechargeable lamp but it should be charged through electricity though. So, when power went off for days I still have to bring it to the office to recharge.
So I also better buy solar lamp for myself too and one for a gift. I want to be ready for the typhoon and rainy season when brownouts are frequent.

We cannot avoid to eat much during celebration hehehehe.It is always expected weight gain if there is no exercise to follow.At home, every day we do some steps exercise.;
By the way, I opened another blog with gumamela flower and acelawrute hahahaha nother thieft.lols.
-
It is the culture of Filipinos to offer so much food during fiestas; quite lavish. And they will feel sorry if you will not eat in their house! So what we do is just eat a bit, then if they are my siblings, I just tell them I will take home that food! ha ha ha! so I will not cook the following day!
The person who used my favorite gumamela flower is Zasa! I don’t know. Now I will always use that for my posts here because if I use my other photos, anybody can just “steal” it!

Well of course we shouldn’t eat too much food but for me fiestas is an exception. But there will be times when you really can’t control your eating and end up having stomach ache or LBM (hahaha). In the end, just eat what you can afford to eat.
-
Thanks, @Christian! It is true, sometimes we are too happy to bond with friends and relatives so we tend to overeat and forget about the planned dieting! Anyway, just do more exercises, and have a strict diet onwards!

May is the month for fiestas indeed. And when it is fiesta , there really are lots of foods.
On the eve of the fiesta, you will hear pigs being slaughtered for the fiesta food preparation. And when it’s fiesta eve, for sure there is “dinuguan”, since the pig has been slaughtered and its blood should be made of use.
Anyway, here in fiestas, the foods are mostly of meats porks and chicken and those delicious desserts.
But I noticed that in your post you mentioned of crabs and shrimps prepared as one of those fiesta foods. Oh, I love those than pork.
Maybe next time you should invite me if the foods are crabs and shrimps. But oops, of course it should be eaten in moderation, lest I forget. he he he

The environmentalist must stop this water pollution. Our fishes may not anymore safe to eat. It is so disgusting. Other countries like New Zealand, their seas are so clean so non toxic.
-
Good to know about the strict implementation of handling garbage in New Zealand, along with other countries. In the Philippines we have strict laws too, but I wish all the people will follow it, because everyone could be affected if our seas are polluted!
-
-
That is the proof how irresponsible people are. We throw the garbage in the sea, in fact, anywhere. Dumping anything as if we are the maker of all the things in this world. Poor whale, the latest victim of human inhumanity.
If only we know how to manage the garbage, there will be no dead whale washed ashore.
-
It is true, it show’s man’s inhumanity! If all of us would be responsible enough, we can enjoy pristine waters, clean and cool air, and lots of food on the table. If only we care a lot for the environment.
-
-
Its not only the water pollution, All of kinds of pollution which we see in this world is man made.. Just because of someones ignorance, Pollution has reached a stage, where it cannot be fixed in short time..
-
It is so saddening to see a sea creature who died due to man’s irresponsibility! It is cruelty to animals and to man itself because whatever we eat that is taken from polluted sea can be dangerous!
-
-
Yes, I saw this news on TV. Poor whale. He has eaten the rubbish by irresponsible people.
Could it be that the people living near the sea are the ones responsible for throwing these garbage? Then, they should be warned in blatantly just throwing their garbages into the sea.
The government with this kind of news should be now making guidelines on how it can be avoided that garbages be thrown into the sea.
If they don’t do something about these garbages thrown at the sea, sooner or later the fishes too will be affected and will die from eating them too.
What about the environmentalists, can’t they do something to prevent the people from throwing their garbages into the sea?

That will be the most unforgettable reunion. 50 is big enough and you will have lots of fun swimming, introducing each other and family members. Do not forget to bring your swimsuit my friend hehehehe. Share us your photo in Mylot not here for there are many mangnanakaw of photos here ,at mga kapal muks.
-
Thanks Cely, Yes, everyone is so excited about it. But I cannot wear those skimpy swimsuits because I do not have beautiful legs and body! ha ha ha! That is one of my weakness, wearing short shorts! I wish I have beautiful legs! ha ha ha! About the photos, we should use Pixabay photos here, not our own photos because people from somewhere can use it though the photo was taken from the Philippines, or it is your personal photo.
I think it was because we have that media library here where all our photos remained there, and some people think it is just alright to pick photos from there. When I was new here, I was guilty of that; I even used one of your photos of an old man who was unemployed, but it is from Pixabay too, or what we can call a “generic” photo.
The admin should remove that “Media Library,” to avoid such mistakes.

So how’s the clan’s reunion? Where was it held?
I bet it’s a very happy occasions, since it’s a reunion. Relatives you haven’t seen for years will be coming.
And I suppose the foods are many and are of those favorites of everybody. And I bet there was lechon?
I am excited to see pictures of your reunion. Maybe you should post about it here and post pictures, my friend.

Just hoping that the “other member here” will not use my photos for his/her blogs. These are taken in the Philippines and should not be used by other people without my permission!
-
Hahahaha , that was I have said to my post in group forum which stated: I hope my photo will not be stilen, then after few seconds, I saw my face floating in the blog screen, grrrr. How I like to remove both eyes of the thief and all the thieves.Bad karma to those who do wrong against our will. They should have sent us a private message to ask permission if allow them to use our own personal photo, “grabe naman ka bobo”. They had done grave misconduct. It must not be toleated, but support cannot be found.
In relation to your blig, I remember when Dennis was in Cagayan de Oro, I brought him to port to see our wide ocean and coastal views only to see many sea beggars. Dennis loved to throw them all his pennies almost 300 pesos and many came nearer begging to throw more hehehehe. They have big body structures, Their problem is their laziness and tolerarnce of their poor earnings, very “tamad.” not worth of a help. I did not stop Dennis for he liked to see children happy with some vents thrown to sea.They are good divers.Dennis was also a deep sea diver when he was young and staying with his mom in Australia.
-
Thanks @Cely for your concern on stolen photos.The member, Zasa, asked me to forgive her/him.She said she’s sorry for what she had done. I hope she learned that it is not right to just use other person’s photos without permission. Just like you, I will permit her to use it if she asked for my approval, out of courtesy!
You are right, the Department of Social Welfare and other government agencies had tried to “reach out” to the sea gypsies to give them other sources of livelihood instead of begging on the seas. I don’t know, maybe they liked that way of life!
-
-
Where is this place my friend where there are sea gypsies.
I think it is a demeaning way to give to the poor people. For just those coins, they will risk their lives diving into the sea and even under the ships, where indeed they can die when they get entangled over a plank or string or whatever that can make them suffocate.
The government should really ban this kind of coin giving. It’s a demeaning way for the people to earn some money.
