Bolinao A Paradise Place

We’ve been to Patar, Bolinao!

It took the Busby SEO Test team and some friends almost 1 hour and thirty minutes to reach Patar from Alaminos, mainly because of the rough-road detour at Bani since the bridge before the town proper is under renovation effective December 10, 2008.

The long stretch of shoreline is a feast to the eye. Along the way, we passed by some of the infamous resorts of Bolinao like Puerto Del Sol, Punta Riviera and Treasures of Bolinao; some caves and the famed Cape Bolinao Lighthouse but our destination is actually at the end of the road, where the white sand beach is just as beautiful and untouched by artificial enhancement, and yet still pocket friendly.

Patar Beach overlooks the vast expanse of the South China Sea. Aside from the “kotong” videoke, (the defective machine eats your P5.00 like cookie monster ), and the large waves, we definitely enjoyed our Christmas party at the beach. The trip was even made memorable by the new relationships formed namely Budong and Emily, Bendix and Rhoda, James01 and Arlene, and Palos and the “trio” - the lovers in Patar; our wacky SEO master. AIE OJTs and TJ the lost Balikbayan!

The trip down to the white sand of Patar, Bolinao was long and bumpy, but definitely, it was all worth it!

Facilities at the public area:

Cottage which can accommodate 20 pax cost Php 200-300

Videoke Rentals – Php 5.00 per song

Modest Comfort Rooms

Whoohoo!

Another, beauty queen was added on Pinay Beauty list… Miss Karla Paula Henry is 2008 Miss Earth beauty pageant winner. She bested 90 contestants from all over the world. And, I believe, her winning factor is her confidence and brainpower.

Even if she didn’t win a Bb. Pilipinas title, at least she got a better crown on her head. The “eight wonder of the world” Miss Earth 2008.

I really thought, Billy Crawford (the host) will call on Miss Tanzania as the winner. But, even if Miss Tanzania is not the typical Molato or fair skinned beauty queens, I still find her beautiful and oozing with confidence. Maybe if she didn’t stammered on the last part of her answer to the question, maybe it could have been her. hehehe

The final question asked to the four remaining contestants was:

“What would you tell US president-elect Barack Obama about the state of the global environment if ever you were to meet him?”

And, Miss Earth Philippines’ answer?

“Environmental knowledge is something that all of us must share, but most importantly we must teach the youth that this is something that we should instill in them so that in the near future they will be the ones to take care of our mother Earth.”

By the way, I find it ironic that both Mirriam Quiambao and Ruffa Guttierez, were defeated by a black beauty queen, at least now Karla Paula Henry, won the title.

Karla Paula Henry from Cebu is our representative for Miss Earth 2008.

Karla gained popularity, when she didn’t win any Bb. Pilipinas title which she had joined earlier even if she is one of the crowd favorite.

So will our 20 year old, 5′7″ stunner win the title?

Find out on November 9 at the Clark EXPO Amphitheater, Pampanga and which will also be aired on ABS-CBN Channel 2 - Kapamilya Network.

Wohooo!

Subterranean RIver National Park is on #1

Chocolate hills, Tubbataha Reefs and Mayon Volcano follows closely.

We really can’t deny that Philippines has this special bayanihan power when it comes to text and internet voting.

That is why it is not surprising to see the Philippines topping the rank for the New 7 Wonders of Nature.

But indeed, we really can’t deny too, that Philippines is so blessed with beautiful places and that is why we also deserve to be among the winners.

So to ensure our win just continue voting for the New 7 Wonders of Nature !

Voting for nominees will be until December 31, 2008. A New7Wonders Panel of Experts will then select the 21 finalists, from which voters worldwide will elect the New 7 Wonders of Nature”.

I’ve been trying to figure out how to go to MOA without hiring a taxi ever since.

Now I know… while i’m doing link building with Busby SEO Challenge

Please don’t laugh but Manila is really a big jungle full of complicated roads for me, that I’d rather take the taxi or ride with someone than to experiment my way over there.

Well, I know I am not the only one here and someone out there would appreciate my simple instruction if you want to go to MOA (Mall of Asia) without any trouble…

1. Ride the LRT 1 going to Gil Puyat.

2. At the right side (if facing Baclaran) left (if facing Monumento) of Gil Puyat station, there is a small orange jeep (fyi… they call it shuttle) waiting there. In front of an establishment named Nirvana.

3. Ride that shuttle and it will take you exactly at MOA.

I hope this simpleton idea of mine could help somebody out there.

Compared to other Malls in Manila, Mall of Asia has the advantage of having the sea (I think it is Manila Bay) as one of its attraction. I thought it is really nice and relaxing to stand by the rails and feel the nice breeze coming from the ocean if you are there. It is indeed a different shopping experience to try.

Works are related to humans, of course humans are to work even in the oldest times. Relying on Man power or the physical resources that’s how trades and business work before the 20^th century, slowly man see the need to use devices or machineries to make things nicer. Then human thought of using technologies like Industrial Computing to imitate human intellectual capacity. To be able to do work 10 times faster accurately.

Then someone thought, why not create Touch Panel that gained popularity through the kiosk systems and now to a higher level where they can even be used to simplify the use of computers, to make it uncomplicated for others to use. So that interactions can be felt and done as if we are just tapping someone to do a specific task.

Next is the PCMCIA Reader to expand the endless uses of memory cards that can store almost all possible data nowadays.

Well, technology has a lot to offer, what prompted our inventors to create the best technology possible is because they had visualized the needs of the future.

I bet all of you folks have already experience playing games, in real life. But of course, everybody does know how to play and enjoy, what a dense question, but how about online games? One, two - all of you? Oh good! Well let me just ask if like me it ever crossed your mind and think that these people behind these online games – from the creators to the graphic artist… aren’t they indeed genius?!

Especially the RPG Games and TD Games, I think it is already awesome to be able to create one fully loaded games that is actually working, while each scene are artistically designed – done in a cartoonish way. What more if they are to incorporate mysteries, strategies and scenes where they would really challenge that ability of yours to respond effectively on certain problems being encountered.

What more – they are showcasing these talents of theirs through the games which are available for free in the internet.

Miss Universe Dayana Mendoza, of Venezuela was once a kidnapped victim in her homeland a year and a half ago.

Tension was felt when Miss USA tripped on her gown, the same thing happened to Miss USA 2007 as we remembered.

TOP Five Winners :

Ms. Venezuela (Dayana Mendoza)

Ms. Mexico (Elisa Najera)

Ms. Dominican Republic(Marianne Cruz Gonzalez)

Ms. Colombia (Taliana Vargas)

Ms. Russia (Vera Krasova)

The result of winners this year has no surprising outcome, if you will notice the top five are the countries who are always on the Top choices…

Sometimes I am wondering why some countries are still continuously joining these kinds of competitions when as always as expected, most of the winners are just the same year after year…

But then, I know that these are just healthy competitions and a good chance for uniting each countries most beautiful ladies in the world. No matter if you win or not the nothing will compare to the experience gained and the honor you have given your country.

For the rest, again BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME…
