Got tagged by rob...
Each player of this games starts with 6 weird things about you. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state the rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don’t forget to leave a comment that says you are tagged in their comments and tell them to read your blog.
1. Parang kay fatima. Hindi ako marunong magsnap, sumipol o magbike. Triny ko na yung 1st 2 at hopeless talaga ako. Yung 3rd, ayaw kong magkasugat. hehe.
2. Allergic ako sa lotion, strongly scented deodorants, strong soap, sunblock, certain insect repellants, at kahit anong linalagay sa katawan na may scent (except siyempre pabango, hindi ko naman ipinanliligo yun e). Ilang beses na ko pumunta sa derma dahil sa mga allergies na to. Pupunta na nga lang ako ng derma, hindi pa para magpaganda. Haay.
3. 4 years and 9 months na ako nakasuot ng braces. Ganun na katagal. Mula pa ng August noong Grade 7 ako. Kaya wala pang taga-Pisay na nakita akong hindi naka braces (except sina anapat at patreng. duh). Sana matanggal na to this year.
4. Hindi ako nagsusuot ng rubber shoes maliban pag PE class, field trip at pag dinemand ng parents ko.
5. Takot ako sa pusa. As in. Aalis ako sa isang lugar kung may pusa sa tabi ko kahit may ginagawa pa akong importante like eating lunch or working on the yearbook. Ask nico, pito and peach. Takot rin ako sa aso.
6. Sa ateneo ako mag-aaral pero ang gusto ko icheer sa UAAP ay ang La Salle. Hindi ko alam pano pero bahala na.
I'm not tagging anyone kasi lahat naman ata natag na. :p

What I realized from our trip
** YFC is international but more importantly God is universal. His love binds all of us in the world together. I heard Mass at Malmo twice. In the City of Malmo, there are only two churches and they don't have hourly Sunday Masses like we do here in the Philippines. Still, hindi pa rin puno yung church. Pero what's truly amazing is that I saw people with different nationalities. There were Filipinos(Filipinos are so everywhere), Norwegians (siyempre), Africans, Chinese, etc. It was just so lovely to see people going together to praise God.
** Planning and patience are important parts of a nation. Singapore is such a perfectly planned country especially when we remember that a lot of their land is reclaimed. when before, people in Denmark have to ride a ferry to get to Sweden, the two countries decided to have a bridge connecting them making things much easier. Now, a lot of Danish live in Sweden but still work in Denmark.
** It doesn't matter how high taxes get as long as the people benefit from them. In Denmark and Sweden, the children have free education and their parents get monthly allowances from the government for each child. They have tax deductions if they invest their money on property and for business.
** They preserve old buildings becuase they value history. And they attract tourists. Their architecture are both stylish and functional.
** They have trees everywhere. Considering they have four seasons, I think it would be harder to mantain plants there than in the Philippines. But we don't have as much trees. Sometimes, I think there are more basketball courts than trees in the streets.
** Tourism should be one of the government's priorities. Singapore has free tours and free shuttles from the airport for the people who have at least 6 hours before their connecting flight to wherever. At least, they get to showcase the beauty of their country and tell people to come back to their country some other time. Our country doesn't even have much quality travel guides when we have so many beautiful sites to show off.
** Lines should be cut short. Abroad, the lines are short and if they are long, they are bearable. In NAIA, the lines at immigration are really long and they don't have clear labels. One Filipina who was with her daughter. The mom had a passport of another country already but the daughter had a Philippine passport. Upon reaching the counter labeled Filipinos/Balikbayans, which obviously described her because she was a Filipino by nationality and a balikbayan, she was asked to line up somewhere else. Haay.
Ayun. The Philippines is such a beautiful country. But we can't just rely on that, we have to continue planning and improving what we have. We can't just take everything on one at a time. We have to plan things as a whole because everything we do, no matter how small, affects our nation and our future. Can't wait to become Chief of Staff. lol.

Travel Log
We went to Scandinavia for two weeks. I had so much fun.
We stayed with our parents' friends place at Malmo. Tita Jen, tito Bo, Kevin & Christian, thanks so much! They brought us around, made us eat so much :) and made us feel at home in their abode.
My mom works with singapore airlines so we only had to pay for my brother's ticket and taxes of course. Thanks daddy and mommy for making this trip possible.
And most importantly, thank you God!
Here's our travel log. Europe is so pretty. And so cold. We saw so many places. Even when we were just driving around, we were at awe with nature and their architecture (I even took pictures of random buildings and houses because they were so nice.)
Pictures to be posted at my multiply.

8:15 am- departure from Manila => Inannounce yung name namin sa naia... haha. hindi kami late. pero dahil chance kami kasi hindi yun yung totoo naming flight, sa gabi pa dapat, hinintay na near closing ng check-in. tas hinabol namin yung plane. siyempre tinulungan naman kami ng airport staff ng sia. :)
11: 15 am - arrival at singapore=> We got to go on the singapore airlines tour of singapore. The last time I've been to singapore was when I was 8 years old so it was great to actually see everything again. We were able to ride a ferry pa.

movies galore
Since singapore airlines is the best airline ever (haha), they have the best in-flight entertainment. As in, may sariling monitor screen ang lahat ng tao. And you get to watch whatever movie, tv show and documentary, play whatever game, and listen to any music you want. And when you're travelling a total of 30 hours, that means a lot.
Kaya ang dami kong napanood na movies sa plane and sa sweden na rin and at our hosts' home. :)
to Singapore & Copenhagen - Dream girls (some parts), Mrs. Brown (story ni Queen Victoria when her husband died), Freedom Writers (story of a teacher who inspired her students from the ghetto to write their stories)
Apr28 - Stepford Wives (husbands turn their more successful wives into robots)
Apr29 - Enemy of the State
May2 - The Legend of Zorro
to Singapore & Manila - Music & Lyrics, Because I Said So, The Holiday, (TV Shows) The Apprentice, Hell's Kitchen, How to Spot a Liar
**I loved all the movies. Papunta mga serious and drama yung pinanood ko. On our way back, I watched love stories. haha.
**Here's my favorite speech from The Holiday. Fatima, you should watch this. You'll so love it.
"I understand feeling as small and as insignificant as humanly possible. And how it could actually ache in places you didn't know you had inside of you. It isn't how many glasses of champagne you had with your girl friends, or how many times you've gone to the gym. You still go to bed at night, going every detail and wonder what you did wrong or how you could have misunderstood. And how in the hell for that brief moment you could think that you were that happy. And sometimes you could even convince yourself that he'll see the light and just show up at your door. And after all that, how ever long that may be, you go somewhere new and you'll meet people who'll make you feel worthwhile again. And little pieces of your soul wil finally come back. And all that fuzzy stuff, all those years of your life that you wasted, that would actually begin to fade."

Scandinavian Cruise... :D
We went on a mini cruise to and from Oslo last Wed to Fri. It was so much fun.
We left Copenhagen at 5pm. Ngayon lang ako nakasakay ng ship tapos cruise ship pa. :D Inikot namin yung ship. Ang ganda ng view and ang lamig.
We arrived at Norway ng 9 am. Tapos sobrang lamig kasi 4 degrees celsius ang temp. (Buong kwento yan ng stay namin dito. Sobrang lamig. ang pinaka mainit na dito: 20. e yun nga ang malamig sa atin e.) Anyway, so we went down the ship.
Tapos we just walked around the city. We went to Arkhesus Fortress, sa mga museum doon. Then we walked some more, went to the walking street, passed by the Cathedral, which was being renovated, and then the Central Station. We decided to eat in that area. Tapos we walked back to the ship and arrived ng mga 2:30.
Sa sobrang pagod, we fell asleep after eating the muffins we bought as my dad's birthday cakes. haha. :)) Woke up again just as the ship was leaving. Ayun. Dinner. Tapos ikot uli.
My brother attended the treasure hunt for the 2nd time. Tapos the rest of us returned to the cabin. They decided to leave cause my brother wasn't back yet but I decided to stay.
Tapos turns out may 2 additional blessings kaming natanggap.
(1) Nameet uli nila yung isang Filipino man na kasama sa crew. Tapos binigyan niya kami ng 6 complimentary breakfast buffet passes. yay! Bait talaga ni God!!! :D
(2) Ang brother ko na matagal tagal na rin naliligaw pabalik sa cabin ay nakahanap ng 2 danish kids na tumulong sa kanya. at nagkita sila ng parents ko.
Ayun. And then we got back to Copenhagen at 9am the next day.
Thank you God for this experience! :D
We left Copenhagen at 5pm. Ngayon lang ako nakasakay ng ship tapos cruise ship pa. :D Inikot namin yung ship. Ang ganda ng view and ang lamig.
We arrived at Norway ng 9 am. Tapos sobrang lamig kasi 4 degrees celsius ang temp. (Buong kwento yan ng stay namin dito. Sobrang lamig. ang pinaka mainit na dito: 20. e yun nga ang malamig sa atin e.) Anyway, so we went down the ship.
Tapos we just walked around the city. We went to Arkhesus Fortress, sa mga museum doon. Then we walked some more, went to the walking street, passed by the Cathedral, which was being renovated, and then the Central Station. We decided to eat in that area. Tapos we walked back to the ship and arrived ng mga 2:30.
Sa sobrang pagod, we fell asleep after eating the muffins we bought as my dad's birthday cakes. haha. :)) Woke up again just as the ship was leaving. Ayun. Dinner. Tapos ikot uli.

YFC meeting at Copenhagen
So far, the vacation has been so much fun. We've gone around Singapore, Denmark, Sweden and Norway. There's so much to tell but I'll do that when I get home.
Pero yesterday, our whole family attended the General Assembly of Couples for Christ in Copenhagen. We met the members of CFC, SFC and YFC.
All of them had joint worship and fellowship. Then we went out for some activities with the YFC members. Talagang international ang YFC kasi pareho sila ng activities sa Philippines. The game we played, Trust walk, was what we did sa YFC GA in Pisay before. Also, the other games they knew were Do You Love Me. Di na nagbago. haha. And like here in the Philippines, mahilig rin sila sa pictures. :)
But we had so much fun. Most of them were Filipinos. Some full, some half. Pero meron ding mga pure Danish. They tried their best to speak in English so we could understand. Some of them even tried speaking in Filipino but they had funny accents bec all of them were already born in Denmark.
ie.
Tobian: Baboy ka.
Alan: Oo.
(laughter)
Alan: (confused)
Tobian: Ano ang pangalan mo?
Meryl: Meryl.
Tobian: (points at Alan) Siya gwapo o pangit?
Meryl: Gwapo.
(everone laughs)
Tobian: Baka aso. (???)
Alan: What?
They were so funny. But during the times they spoke Danish, we still didn't feel like we were out of place.
They made us feel so welcome. My dad always says it but ngayon ko lang siya naramdaman. Kahit sino pang ka community, in this case YFC, kahit first time mo lang nakilala at kahit magkaibang bansa pa kayo, there's a certain bond because of the Christ we all love and serve (parang sa maraming experiences sa Pisay... pero ibang kwento na yun. :D).
