Hazel McCallion

I went to Bread of Life church last Sunday, Paster Beebo talked about Hazel McCallion. For those of you who does not know Hazel, she is the mayor of Mississauga, Ontario, Canada; born February 14, 1921. She has been serving Mississauga for 31 years. Now at aged 89, she was easily re-elected again for her 11 consecutive terms. And take note, she doesn’t even need to campaign. What’s her secret? Don’t make promises that you can’t keep. People love her so much. And yes, this Mayor rocks! She’s into ice hockey and fishing.

I hope, our leaders would be like this. Free from corruption and of course dedication from their work. Good luck President Noynoy Aquino. Let’s keep this country moving. And remember, you have promised us no corruption. Let’s start a new leaf.

Traffic!

Unbelievable, yesterday was my worst trip going home! I extend in the office for an hour for our operations. My log off time was 4pm. I got out of the office at around 5:20pm. There was rain all right. And of course I expect the worst, when it rained, there is traffic. I record the time on my whole trip and divided it into 4 sections.

1.    Makati to Kalaayan Road – 48.58.5

2.    C5 to Ortigas Extension – 15.57.3 (Not bad! I thought I’ll be going home smoothly. Traffic was only at the C5 U turn slot.)


3.    Ortigas Extension to VolleyGolf – 2.20.53.6 (Yeah, I got this right. While we were on the One Oasis condo, still at Ortigas Extension, an FX driver approached us and mentioned that Junction was heavily flooded from waste to down. I thought on myself, yikes! How am I going home then? So the driver of the FX made a U-Turn and said to us we’ll take another route. He’s confident that the flood was only in Junction. He promised that he’ll take us to VolleyGolf. Good thing that most of us is from VolleyGolf.  So there’s goes our adventure. We encountered some flooded areas but we were all good. Until we’ve reached my place. I’m glad VolleyGolf was not flooded that time, it was almost 10pm. I saw some tracks of flood though. But I was pleased with the smooth driving of manong driver.)

4.    Service Jeep to Home – 14.01.3 (Touchdown! But there was black out. Matthew, my kid brother told me earlier. It seems that only Palmera has no lights. Weird. The Meralco specialist was unable to search my Dad’s name since I was not able to provide the account number. Even when I provided our address. The last time I called, there no problem with it.)

Well, that’s it. I went to slumber for couple of hours and woke up at 4.40am to prepare.

Ace Water SPA

Earlier, we went to Ace Water SPA. For Php550, you'll get hydrotherapy massage for four hours plus three herbal hot pools. I personally love the hot herbal pool. The three pools temperature ranges from 36 to 40 Celsius. It's really hot! They named it Mint Pool--36 C, Jasmine Pool--38 C, Lavender Pool--40 C. They don't allow bringing cameras in the pool area. So we took pictures on the dining area. My official photographer, Matthew took pictures of the area.

And of course, after four hours of swimming, I'm hungry as a bear. I love seafood, I ordered Seafood Teriyaki. Sis ordered Chicken while mom preferred Salad. It has wasabi! Mom was not able to finish her salad. Mat asked for Calamari and hotdogs.
