Feels like weekend again,or maybe it's just me. I've been on energy saving mode since last week and I don't feel like doing anything special except staying around lazying.The best that I could do since summer heat is unbearable is to go swimming.We have two swimming pools in o…
I was bored.My wife left ( due to a seminar in Baguio) me again and it has been 5days now. Of being alone at home. I don't wanna think deeply of it or else I might get sad, and so I try to entertain myself,and take care of my own needs, butt it's starting to sink. It has been al…
Being new in Rizal, I thought of exploring the province more. This is my way of integrating with my new adopted province. Sounds like a good idea because I actually have a lot of misconceptions of this place. I thought of it as an expansion of the slums of Manila---- boring, crowded plai…
I actually call it tragedy because it's nothing short of being tragic. A peaceful community caught in the middle of the controversy surrounding its developer Globe Asiatique and Filmal Realty Corporation . Life at Saint Monique Valais is normal as usual but the ongoing problem is st…
I remember last month when I invited a blogger to Saint Monique Valais for our annual fiesta, he said he never expected to find a place like ours in Rizal. " It just feels like it's not Rizal Province" he lamented. Perhaps because people expected this eastern side of Manila…
just found out a few days ago what VALAIS in St. Monique Valais means, I thought it stands for village but I'm wrong. It simply means valley. Appropriate enough as the village sits in a valley on the southern tip of the Sierra Madre Range..... ....and the weather here during this ti…
.....just wanna share the pics I got from one of my favorite spots in Binangonan, Kalbaryo Hill which is located in Poblacion (town porper) ...... Ortigas and Makati from Binangonan
My friend Inah, who is a member of the POWER LEGENDS visited us last weekend with her family so as to reserve a unit here in the village. In roughly 10 months, we will be expecting a new kid in the block. Another power legend here would mean more than one reason for our friends to be arou…
The tandem of Richard Poon and Sam Milby really got St. Monique mesmerized.... Richard Poon came first at around 8:30pm and despite the long wait, the crowd welcomed him warmly and set the energy high for the next performers to maintain. He is very nice and good looking so the crowd rea…
If you can't come to them, let them come to you..... and that's exactly what will happen to the peaceful community of St. Monique Valais tonight. the chapel and French Chalet houses in phase 1.....
Since I don't get to have a lot of exercise due to the nature of my work. I make it a point that I go swimming at least once a week. So during Sundays or Tuesdays where I have a lot of free time, you can find me here...... clubhouse at St. Monique.....
______________________ this place really has a lot of surprises in stored. I learned last month that the village of St. Monique has a fiesta of it's own. cool. And so it is, every 29th day of August. This years festivities will be tomorrow.hehe ...it will surely be a bus…
________________________ ....never really thought I could own a house. Not that I don't want to to but because it was surreal. Sure, I had dreams, but I thought it will be simply that----a dream. during the fiesta....... with Marvin in the house..... the stairs...... …
____________________ Some people might not understand why until now I seem to be in a not-so-upbeat situation. I tell you, it's complicated. It's an aggregate of what life could possibly throw at me all at once. Simply put, I am not depressed. Just a little into the bl…
