The great thing about being a girl though is when backpacking, you carry less weight as ours are generally much lighter than guy's clothes.

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.
