New Years Resolution


Every beginning of the year it looks like a fad for everyone to create a list about the things they plan to do for the whole year. That is good.  But I hope those who promised themselves of improvements and changes they would do for 2013 considered the pros and cons of whatever they have on the list.

For those who boldly promised themselves to quit smoking. Have they considered gradually or totally quit from the habit of smoking? Smoking is addictive.  Consider that as one of the predicament you may encounter. If the quit smoking thing, is among your list, quit going to smoking area during your break time when at work. You may also consider shying away from smoker friends. To the ladies who promised savings as their priorities, avoid shopping malls. You may be enticed to fit a pair of pants on reduced price sale.  And ... boom! There goes with the New Years Resolution.

You Are Beautiful


This past Thursday, at break time my office mates had been busy browsing one website we are allowed to open at work. I thought it was some kind of fashion show they had been crazy about. I glanced at the website. It was the Miss Universe Beauty Pageant. I was advised our very own Miss Philippines is among the top fifteen semi finalist. Stefania Fernandez, outgoing Miss Universe from Venezuela will crown her successor on the 23rd of August in Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas Nevada, United States

Maria Venus Raj, is our candidate to this prestigious beauty pageant. She was previously disqualified by the Miss Philippines organizer, Binibining Pilipinas Charities, after winning the crown for Miss Philippines-Universe. Allegedly the disqualifications were due inconsistencies on her birth certificate and her pre pageant interviews. She was born out of wedlock by a Filipina mother fathered by an Indian gentleman, when her mother was working in Middle East country. Her citizenship was questioned being born in Qatar but she lived all her life in Bato Camarines Sur, one of provinces in Bicol Region, Philippines. She was brought to the Philippines as infant and never knew her Indian father. Despite her tender age at twenty-two this talented beauty fought for her rights. Armed with dedicated supporters who hired lawyers to defend her title, the Binibining Pilipinas Charities reversed their decision and allowed Venus to compete for the coveted Miss Universe crown.

Win or lose this young lady will be in the heart of many Filipinos.  She had shown exemplary strength despite the odds. An office mate teasingly asked me why I did not join a beauty pageant. I told him I am under height, for five feet and two inches.
