It takes Faith to ENJOY

To all fellow workaholics and small spenders this entry is for you! I am about to embark on a journey to the unknown.. I am going on Vacation! Yes! I dont really go on vacations.. most of my trips are family organized, school activities, and of course work related! Meaning i dont really spend for it. These free vacations end up being fun but i guess it starts off as an obligation.. My travel starts off with a gig in the following places: 1. Hong Kong on December 16-18. Kitchie Nadal was booked to sing for Globe Telecom along with True Faith and Cesar Montano. 2. Leaving for Singapore Dec 18. I have 2 hours to arrive and get my new luggage for Singapore. 3. Dec 19 we play in Singapore for our Every Nation Church in 12 Riffles Bldg. This gig is fun because it will be our first time to perform with our Singaporean family. 4. Dec 20 fly to India Amistrar.. here comes my faith to enjoy.. As i have mentioned i go to organized paid by others vacation.. from December 20 2006 -January 8, 2006 i

the filipinos

i am almost always on the road driving or with a driver going to different parts of the Philippines ... usually on the road my mind is busy thinking... one of the thoughts that came to my mind is the status of my country the Philippines. the growth of my nation and the status of the economy.. we Filipinos are known for our hospitality and ingenuity. we are very hospitable, we open our homes to friends, family and even strangers.. my point being is .. Filipinos can be very selfless as a small unit.. my challenge is.. we Filipinos can be selfless as a nation.
