Simple Wedding Invitation yet Elegant to Look

This coming February 25, 2012 will be the wedding of my friend Pinkee Juarez (also friend of my husband and workmate) and his wife to be Jenny Vei Bas. It was a privilege to be part of their wedding preparation. I was the one whom they asked to make and decide for their wedding invitation. I am not a professional designer nor have a business on designing but they trusted me on that thing. But I am proud to say that I know how to look on things if it suits or not, if it is nice to look or not, if it is elegant or not - maybe I could say I have this sense of fashion. Their wedding motif is olive green. So I decided for their wedding invitation to look simple but proudly I say it is elegant to look. Here are the sample photos of it. I apologize for the contrast since I only used my phone in taking its picture.

Eye Catcher : Half Motorcycle, Half Car

I was riding to Gaisano Fiesta Mall Tabunok Talisay City yesterday to have a date with my husband who was waiting there and I was murmuring inside since the vehicle that I rode run slowly. As I glimpse outside to refresh  my self, a very spectacular type of vehicle catches my attention. It was too late for me to get a photo of it in a close up view but still fortunate to have a photo of it though the spectacular vehicle is a bit in a distance already. It was just to strange to see a what I can call it as, "Half Motorcycle, Half Car". The front portion of it was motorcycle while the back portion is a car. See the photos below, and I bet you would also feel astonished!

Tsunami Scare due to False Alarm: Cause a Widespread Panic in Cebu



Tsunami Scare hits Cebu City people. Upon hearing the rumors that Cebu was already experiencing Tsunami and that water from sea already floods Colon Street, Carbon and at JY Square, people rushed through their homes bringing their children, dogs, and packed things and went uphill in Guadalupe. Colon Street specifically at V. Rama Road was flooded by crowd of people walking towards Guadalupe (that was what I heard on the news yesterday as I got home). And in my part, as I was on my way home since our office hour was suspended due to the said tsunami alert around 3:30 in the afternoon, I saw crowd of people on street in Pardo, Cebu. Some were bringing huge backpacks, some carrying their children and some was walking towards San Carlos Heights in Basak Quiot. These are the effects of the rumors that Tsunami already hit Cebu. From the news on TV last night, it says that a man on his motorcycle with megaphone roaming on street of Colon shouting that the water is already reaching the street and Tsunami already hits Cebu. This false alarm causes a widespread panic in Visayas and specifically Cebu residents and causes a heavy traffic in Cebu City mainly in Colon Street.

Earthquake 6.9 Magnitude Hit Cebu and Negros(February 06, 2012)

It was around 12:00 o'clock at noon when just in a sudden I and my workmates felt that our tables, chairs and floor are moving. At first, I thought it is just nothing maybe just a vibration due to vehicles on street near our office but it last a bit longer and they said it's an Earthquake. We ran outside the office and went to the garage area where it is safer than inside wherein many things prone to fall.

After having our lunch with my workmate Analie, we felt a sudden movement again of the ground (we're experiencing aftershock). But during at night when I got home since our working hours was suspended around 3:30 in the afternoon, around 6:30 in the evening in my room together with my mother and my cousin Lance (1 yr old) we felt again the aftershock and it is a bit longer than the aftershock I felt at noon. The aftershock was successive at night of February 06, 2012, around 6:30, around 7:00 o'clock and 8:00 o'clock in the evening. I heard from the news that PHILVOCS said that aftershock will and possible take longer for a week or 2 weeks but not as bad as what we experienced on that night.
