Always know if the juice is worth the squeeze.
Catching the bandwagon doesn't always end up on a dead-end. Sometimes splendid ideas sprout and makes you decide to make a fantastic detour.

I’ve been sleepless for the past couple of days and I’m very excited since my new camera is about to arrive.
I have joined an online photography class/tutorials community from froknowsphoto.com
It’s a very helpful site for all kinds of photographers. (I think)
Here’s what I did for this week’s edit.
Hope you guys like it.
For more photos, please visit.
Mariko posed for me and flaunts her necklace.
I took her picture using Nokia 5800 Xpress Music.
I love the edit.
Looks like a four-season.
Been bored inside my room and I was cooking rice for lunch. While waiting, I got so bored and went outside.
I saw a wooden bed being repaired and my doorknob.
I remember Gavin Hoey’s 15-minute photo challenge where he could produce great images out of ordinary setting or structure.
I pulled my cellphone and walla!!
I never thought I could make this kind of pics.
It’s the every little details in life that we often ignore that makes art.
I remember Ansel Adams’ quote,
“It’s not about the camera, it’s the 12 inches behind it.”
I hope you like my photos.
I would also hope that this sends a message to all photo enthusiasts out there.
Not all the time that we need DSLRs for us to get a good photo.
The best camera is the brain that perceives something or anything to be a form of art.
PEACE and LOVE!
“Nursing is a healthcare profession focused on the care of individuals, families and communities so they may attain, maintain, or recover optimal health and quality of life from conception to death.”
That definition above is from wikipedia.
If I were to give a definition to nursing, I think my words would sway a little bit.
Nursing is a healthcare profession focused on attaining working experience just to be called “competent”, yet still the professional is left unemployed.
Nursing is the only profession where the professional is the one paying the institution just to practice his/her profession.
Nursing is more of an aptitude of being a call center agent.
Nursing, among all the healthcare professions, is the only profession where you could experience a doctor yelling 1 inch from your face just because you made a simple mistake.
Nursing makes up the majority of unemployed professionals.
Nurses are those professionals who even if they already have a job, still they can’t consider themselves financially stable.
A friend of mine once posted about nursing on his facebook status.
“Nurses are being scorned for being late with meds, yet they are holding their bladder because they don’t have time to use the restroom, starving because they missed lunch, being peed on, puked on, bled on, beat on & are missing their family while taking care of yours. In the minute you read this, nurses all over the world are saving lives.”
I just hope that employment and respect would greatly be given to nurses.
I’ve been a nurse for 5 years.
I had a couple of working experience.
I’m proud of my profession.
I am a NURSE.
I have visited the place where the phrase “I SHALL RETURN” became popular!
The Leyte Landing Memorial is a memorial to the landing of General Douglas MacArthur and his men at Red Beach. It is located in Candahug, a barangay of the municipality of Palo in the province of Leyte, part of the Visayas. Also known as the MacArthur Landing Memorial Park, the memorial consists of larger-than-life bronze statues of the general with other men, including then Philippine president Sergio Osmeña, Jr., standing in a manmade pool. The memorial was erected in tribute to MacArthur’s fulfillment of his promise to return to the Philippines after it was occupied by the Japanese during World War II in the Philippines. The Japanese Occupation of the Philippines ended soon after MacArthur landed at Red Beach on October 20, 1944 with 225,000 troops and 600 ships. The anniversary of this event is commemorated annually at the park with a reenactment of the famous landing, attended by local and foreign dignitaries.
Found at Red Beach in Barangay Candahug, Palo, Leyte, 5 kilometers away from the provincial capital of Tacloban City, the memorial marks the exact spot where MacArthur and other important personages waded ashore in the knee-high waters. Red Beach, so named due to the U.S. military’s color-coding scheme, was also the site where the 6th Army of the United States stormed ashore shortly before MacArthur’s return. A museum nearby displays historic photographs, a copy of MacArthur’s speech, and bronze casts of his footprints. Close by is the 50th Leyte Landing Anniversary Commemorative Rock Garden of Peace. Other nearby attractions include the historic Hills 120 and 522, which also figured in World War II, and the first-class MacArthur Beach Resort.
MacArthur made his promise to return to the Philippines when the Japanese occupied the country in 1942. By this time, the Allies had already decided to attack Japan directly rather than battle the Japanese in the Philippines. MacArthur, however, convinced President Roosevelt and Pacific Commander Chester Nimitz to send forces to the Philippines to fight against the Japanese forces that had overtaken the country. The U.S. 6th Army stormed the beach, following which MacArthur arrived in the company of Osmena, Romulo, the U.S. Fifth Air Force, and the U.S. Seventh Fleet under Vice Admiral Thomas C. Kinkaid on October 20, 1944. The U.S. Forces defeated the Japanese soon afterward in the famous Battle of Leyte Gulf.
Statues were erected at the site to commemorate the event. During the term of President Ferdinand Marcos, First Lady Imelda Marcos, who originated from the province, developed the memorial site. It was then named Imelda Park but the original name MacArthur Park was restored after the Marcoses left the country. The historic stretch of beach was turned into the MacArthur Landing Memorial Park in time for the golden jubilee of the Leyte Landing in 1994.
