Plains...Stripes...Prints: Road Domination

Last April 23 to May 1, 2010 my family had our looongggg trip after quite some time. When we say long trip it means more than our 12 hours straight driving to Baguio. It was my firs time to be the co-pilot of my Paps. We crossed bridges, mountains, rivers, railroad tracks and arches of different types. Dry and wet, windy and humid, these are just few of the the weather conditions during our one week trip.

Baguio, Ilocos Sur and Norte (Vigan, Baluarte, Cape Bojeador, Bangui Windmills, Patapat Viaduct, Pagudpud Beach and Tarlac (Central Asukarera de Tarlac) were our three major provinces that we visited. I never thought that I would be enjoying as much as I could ever imagine. What made the trip memorable was I was able to witness almost every town the we passed by and I am glad that I was able to capture most of them. I felt every minute and every hour of our trip. I was able to vent out and free myself from other worries. I can say that I was able to the enjoy the "now" that I experienced yesterday. Our Sittie is so mighty but sexy. Kudos to Sittie and kudos to my Paps, my idol in driving =). Together we dominated the road and our family bonded to the max. Hundred of my pics are in my facebook account. 'Till our next road domination!

PSP Prologue

I’m plain.. i’m stripes. and i’m printed

im plain with clear outlook to who i am. im not much of a talker because i am much of a listener, i like to scribble anything that comes out of my mind. sometimes i say it, sometimes i don’t, because there are things that should be left unsaid for others to realize that the absence of word will be enough for an asnwer. no matter how complex life is, i’d still like to live life plain and simple, because too much pre-occupation on the complex can make a person dull and stupid.

i live in stripes..vertical or horizontal.. there are a lot of ways to survive this life called reality. we may have the same coping mechanisms, but we differ on how we feel and react towards all those stressors in life. i live by my words by hit or miss, i stand for what i say.. sometimes life can be misleading because of mouths around us that can make or break us. be affected with what others say or be the effect of what you say to others. it’s a matter of how you strip in the stripes that crosses over your pathway.

i need some prints in my consciousness. i need your reactions to teach me how to live life well and to use my words in the utmost good way. we all need someone beyond ourselves who can pop our heads out to be awakened by reality. we all leave prints in the heart of all those we meet, as you leave prints in my heart, i’ll try to leave something in your heart as well. don’t forget that prints can be also be scars, so let us stay away from that.

Anything visible is powerful, what is Plainly seen, Stripes that crosses over, and Prints that leave marks. But the unseen in a person is something that we should learn, explore and understand. PSP and the unknown is what is within ME that makes me human enough to co-exist with you.

I am the me who can’t be you, but I can share my life with you.
