    22 April 2008

    I never realized that I would have accomplished and experienced so much even after only 2 days of OJT in the House of Representatives. I’ve managed to help finalize a draft for a specific bill, review past bills and the Tax Reform Act of 1997, write a few paragraphs as part of the explanatory note of that bill, learn how to file it, learn how to search archives, and attend my first session. Of course that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The best part about representing a congressman is attending the workshop conference on Political Parties earlier. I’d...

    Natural retreat

    16 April 2008

    For the past three summers, I’ve been going back to visit my province in Camiguin with my family and even with friends. Of course, most of my summers as a child growing up were spent with my grandparents and relatives over there as well. So it’s safe to say that Camiguin has always felt like home. It’s a far cry from the place I grew up here in Makati. And though I still believe that it would be incredibly different to part ways with the city lifestyle, I occasionally crave for that form of escapism that only the provincial...

    Living the 5-day weekend to the fullest

    20 August 2007

    I just got home from a long, intense, yet surprisingly fruitful shoot for our History165 video project. It was supposed to start at 1:30pm, but we only had the chance to finally shoot 2 and a half hours later. Blame the holiday for the lack of admin people. We had to go through so much red tape. Freakin SOPs. Thankfully, a few contacts, name-drops and kickass, no-nonsense phone calls from mom saved the day.

    Our adventure started from Luneta Grandstand, Luneta Park, Intramuros, Fort Santiago and ended back at Intramuros’ Barbara’s Restaurant. For most part, I was donning a shimmery...

    Summer's Sweet Escape
    Posted by Pearl at 11:52 | Comment [3] |

    23 May 2007

    I phrased the title that way because as soon as I got on board our 5:10AM flight to Cagayan de Oro, Gwen Stefani’s Sweet Escape blasted through the plane, and turned my happyhappy (mode#1, hun. haha.) mood just a little bit up the notch. at 5AM folks!!!

    My trip last weekend counts for a full photo blog entry. I’ll try my very best to not go crazy with the photos and just focus on the highlights. Mainly because there were one too many, and everything seemed to fall under the unforgettable category. But I digress.

    This was definitely a spur-of-the-moment plan of...

    Two days away from the sun
    Posted by Pearl at 22:56 | Comment [9] |

    7 May 2007

    The cool, breezy winds of Baguio was just what I needed to get away from the piercing heat of the summer sun here in Manila. The drive going there was surprisingly shorter than usual. Or at least it felt like it. Must be because I was in total slumber from the moment I got inside the car up until we reached the mountains of Baguio. Amazing. Total eyes-wide shut some freakin 4 hours after. Upon arrival, the change in weather was totally refreshing. The usual unbearable coldness was nowhere to be felt. It was just perfect.
