SOCCER, PHILIPPINE RISING SPORT

THE QUEZON CITY GOVERNMENT THRU THE OFFICE OF VICE MAYOR JOY BELMONTE LAUNCHED STREET SOCCER. JOINING FORCES WITH HER IS COUNCILOR JULIENNE ALYSON RAE V. MEDALLA OF THE SECOND DISTRICT OF QUEZON CITY IN COORDINATION WITH URBAN OPPORTUNITIES FOUNDATION AND TEAM PHILIPPINES

FOR THE WORLD HOMELESS CUP INSTILLING IN THE MINDS OF THE CHILDREN THE IMPORTANCE OF SPORT.

THIS IS ONE THE BASIC FOOTBALL EXERCISES DONE ON THE SIDELINE DURING THE FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES BETWEEN TEAMS FROM DIFFERENT BARANGAYS IN DISTRICT II WHICH ARE TRAINED UNDER THE OFFICE OF COUNCILOR JULIENNE ALYSON RAE V. MEDALLA.

COUNCILOR ALY MEDALLA, BELIEVES THAT THE VALUES ONE CAN LEARN THROUGH SPORTS CAN BE ADAPTED IN REAL LIFE. DURING THE CULMINATING ACTIVITY WHICH WAS TELEVISED PARTLY BY GMA 7, COMPETING STREET SOCCER TEAMS FROM BARANGAY PAYATAS, NAGKAISANG NAYON, STA. MONICA, GULOD AND FAIRVIEW DEMONSTRATED THE NEW SKILLS THEY LEARNED IN THIS SPORT.

I JUST HOPE THAT QUEZON CITY ELECTED OFFICIALS LIKE COUNCILOR ALY MEDALLA WILL CONCENTRATE MORE IN EMPOWERING OUR CHILDREN BY PROVIDING A MASS BASED SPORTS LIKE THIS ONE,

IF THEY WILL CONTINUE DOING THIS, AN ACCORDION EFFECT WILL BE FELT THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY WHICH IN THE LONG RUN WILL BENEFIT OUR NATION. I AM COUNTING THE DAYS THAT THE PHILIPPINES WILL BE RECOGNIZED AS A POWER HOUSE IN SOCCER.

STATUE OF DIVINE MERCY

THIS GIGANTIC STATUE OF THE DIVINE MERCY MEASURED 50 FEET HIGH PERHAPS THE MOST REMARKABLE MONUMENT IN MINDANAO. IT IS SITUATED IN EL SALVADOR CITY, AND IT WAS NAMED AFTER THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD, JESUS CHRIST. THE STAIRWAY IS MUCH HIGHER THAN THAT OF MRT. THOSE WHO HAVE HEALTH CONDITION ARE ADVISED TO STAY ON THE GROUND. TOURISTS AND OTHER VISITORS ARE ADVISED TO OBSERVED PROPER DECORUM SINCE THE ENTIRE PLACE IS SACRED. THOUGH I AM A REFORMED CATHOLIC, VISITING THE PLACE IS A RARE EXPERIENCE AND I WAS AMAZED TO SEE HOW PEOPLE STRIVE TO CREATE ENORMOUS STATUE LIKE THIS. PILGRIMS FROM DIFFERENT PARTS OF ARCHIPELAGO FLOCKED TOGETHER TO SEE THIS WONDERFUL PLACE. I AM A STRONG BELIEVER THAT PEOPLE'S FAITH CREATED THIS PLACE. THEIR FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST WORKS WONDER FOR THEM RECEIVING POSITIVE ANSWERS TO WHAT THEY WISH FOR.

SAVE YOUR SPEECHES FOR THE BEST

THE POLITICAL ARENA IS VERY COLORFUL. WHETHER YOU ARE PARTY MATES OR YOU BELONG TO THE OPPOSING PARTIES, AT THE END OF THE DAY YOU WILL DO YOUR BEST TO OUT-DO AND OUT-WIT ONE ANOTHER FOR ONLY ONE REASON, TO ENSURE VICTORY AND REMAIN ON TOP. LOOK AT THEIR SLOGANS OR WHAT THEY ARE CLAIMING DURING POLITICAL RALLIES AND CAUCUSES. SOME CLAIM THAT THEIR ONLY VICE IS SERVICE (ANG TANGING BISYO NILA AY SERBISYO). SOME SAYS, "BAYAN ANG NO.1, KAMPEON NG PALUPA, TAGAPAGTANGGOL NG KABABAIHAN, KAMPEON NG EDUKASYON, GUSTO KO HAPPY KA, TAPANG AT MALASAKIT, LAYLAYAN NG LIPUNAN, ITULOY ANG DAANG MATUWID AND A LOT MORE. THEIR SPEECHES ARE WELL ORGANIZED AND CRAFTED. THEY WERE EVEN SUPERB IN THE DELIVERY OF THEIR MASTER PIECE. TO BE HONEST AND FAIR, THERE ARE CERTAIN TRUTH TO WHAT THEY ARE SAYING AND CLAIMING BUT MOST OF IT LACED WITH FLOWERY AND SOMETIMES EVEN POISONOUS. SELLING YOURSELF TO THE PEOPLE IS NOT AN EASY JOB. THE PEOPLE WILL KNOW HOW SINCERE YOU ARE AS PUBLIC SE...

FOR QUIET SOMETIME, THE WANDERING BLOGGER SEEMS INACTIVE IN WRITING FOR ONE REASON, NOT BECAUSE HE RUNS OUT OF IDEAS BUT MAINLY BECAUSE OF THIS STRANGE FEELING THAT I DO NOT WANT TO WRITE AT ALL. I NEED TO MOTIVATE MYSELF TO FIGHT THIS STRANGE FEELING WITHIN ME AND CONVINCE MYSELF THAT I NEED TO WRITE AGAIN. I BELIEVE MY READERS ARE VERY EAGER ANTICIPATING MY NEXT ARTICLE.. CLIMATE CHANGE IS A BY-WORD NOW AND ECO-WARRIORS WAS BORN TO RESTORE THE FAST DETERIORATING PLANET EARTH. DURING MY CHILDHOOD, MY FATHER AND I AS WELL AS THE OTHER SIBLINGS ARE ARMED WITH BOLOS CUTTING SMALL TREES, CLEARING THE WEEDS AND LATER ON BURNED THE SITE IN PREPARATION FOR PLANTING SEASON WERE CROPS LIKE PALAY AND CORN WERE PLANTED. THIS SYSTEM IS CALLED THE "KAINGIN SYSTEM" AND WERE CALLED THE "KAINGENEROS". WE WERE NEVER INFORMED DURING THAT TIME THIS SYSTEM OR PRACTICE IS ILLEGAL AND HARMFUL TO ECOLOGICAL BALANCE. NOT ONLY DESTROYING THE NATURAL HABITAT OF SMALL AN...
