Yep, I am indeed a proud mom. My 15 year old son won the 3rd place at yesterdays mountain bike race in Sta. Rosa, Laguna. It was organized by Men’s Health Magazine tagged as “All Terrain Race, Pushed Your Limit”.
It was Father’s Day yesterday, my son told me that its another way of celebrating the day. It wasn’t like just an ordinary race because most participants brought their families. Yesterday, he made his dad proud for winning the race but he wasn’t able to get his trophy because they leave early. And he was not informed of his rank before [...]

Bad news: Last night, I checked on the latest count of A(H1N1) cases in the Philipines, it was “only” 92 when I blogged about the H1N1 Pandemic Alert 6. Additional 18 cases were added again, we already have a total of 111 confirmed A(H1N1) cases in the country.

Good news: Drug manufacturer Novartis had already developed vaccine for A(H1N1) virus. Reportedly, there are 30 countries already ordered for vaccine [...]

This post will serve as replacement to deleted post I posted yesterday regarding a school which already have 1 confirmed case of A(H1N1) and happens to be the school of my children.
I don’t see anything wrong with my post yesterday except a small part of it mentioned the school name (used it also on the post title). A screenshot of the post was saved on my computer.
Last weekend, CHED (Commission on Higher Education) announced the official class opening was moved to June 15 for colleges and universities. On the contrary, DepEd won’t follow CHED’s class suspension according to ABS CBN [...]
