Tiger Woods accident update: Will Tiger Woods wife Elin Nordegren be arrested

November 30: Tiger Woods accident update: Will Tiger Woods wife Elin Nordegren be arrested. Will Elin, Tiger Woods wife be arrested for domestic violence if it is established that she attacked the great golf player. Media reports have suggested that she attacked Tiger Woods and the bruises on his face were the result from her and not the car as it was earlier reported.
Notwithstanding the fact that his car’s front was badly damaged, he remained unscathed and reports suggest that the facial injuries were caused by his wife.

Though Tiger Woods has denied the rumors in the media as mere gossip, people have to believe these reports as so far Woods has been inaccessible to the police.

A Gossip news website TMZ has said that Florida Highway Patrol may seek search warrant of Tiger Woods residence to see his medical reports.

It also says that if it is established that facial bruises were caused by beating by his wife, his wife may be arrested.

Christmas season

Sunday, November 29th, 2009

Christmas season is here, the things that I love the most of this time is that the family gathering. Philippines is the only Asian country where Christians predominate, and we are very proud to proclaim our Christmas to be the longest and merriests. Having a wonderful time  eating  that violet puto,exchanging gift, parties, firing firecrackers pointing to the neighboring premises, Christmas is like no other. The wonderful things about here in our country Filipinos still following Christmas traditions 9 days simbang gabi, parol, puto bumbong, bibingka, noche buena…and since this happens only once a year, it is a much anticipated time of the year for everybody. I love the spirit of Christmas. where there is love, kindness and care with each other, I love watching christmas decorations too, lanterns, christmas tress, and some other abundant and beautiful decors.  Whee.. what  a wonderful life!!!

I just get done chatting with my sis in Colorado, she was in a hurry because they are going to New Mexico for a business trip, sametime for vacation, my niece is kinda excited about it, she loves being in the plane and going to different places..haha.. this is their second time for New Mexico and my sister told me it still excites her to go over there again, she told me that there are many places to visit, and she is longing for something different, Colorado is a wonderful state too where she is at right now but am sure she hates the extreme cold weather this kinda season.. haha!!!   she sent me some  photos of New Mexico, at first I thought desert is kinda depressing, all barren and hot, BUT then i saw the photos, it looked beautiful, giant red rock formations, it looked really cool, and they said the temperature is  nicer than where she lives, it has high snow-covered mountains, dry plateaus, pine forests, aspen forests, and canyons. ,there are some interesting places to visit but her favorite is the Great Sand Dunes National Monument..Hmm.. would love to go there someday!! In my dream. My sister deserves the best, she is such a wonderful person, always there when you need here, that is why she has lots of blessings in her life, wonderful husband, great and beautiful kid, and just have a life of traveling wherever she wants to go!! Go sister!! You deserve everything.. Miss you all the time.

I just done talking to my sister online, they are busy celebrating for their thanks giving holiday, they are preparing lots of different kinds of  foods, the turkey is the most important menu in their meals, It is a new thing for me because we don’t have thanks giving in Philippines, I had never tried eating turkey meat in my life, it would be cool to try and know what it taste like, am wondering if it taste like chicken. haha., Anyways, even if we are not in America we can still have thanks giving everyday.. Just be thankful of what we all got because it is suppose to be about celebrating the coming together of one nations culture, being thankful for what we have, our family, our friends and everything.. Happy thanks giving everybody!!!

Basketball

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

I’m 18 and I love playing basketball. I like playing with my brothers everyday after school. It was fun today because we played longer than usual and now am kinda sore and tired, well am sure having enough sleep for tonight will make me feel better, this is one of my favorite sports, when I started playing I enjoyed it just cant stop playing , where I see the beauty of it. I don’t think I can ever give up hoops, at least until I can’t run no more. If I keep myself fairly in shape, I should be able to play the sport for a good segment of my life.
I find this sport so interesting because the skills and experience won’t go away, even though they may get a bit rusty if I take a break from the game for awhile when am busy with school. I love it, it is the sport that I can enjoy with my brothers, friends and close ones. I may experience a sprain ankle or leg cramps sometimes but it’s not something that can’t be prevented or will hinder enjoyment of playing!!!

also, I like teamwork, I don’t like independent sports. Every move you make, you need someone to help you.

I like trying to strive to improve my game, always getting better. In every game, I want to improve, learning something new from the time of the begining whistle for jump ball, until the buzzer goes off at the end. And I love the feeling after you stuff a ball in someones face, or score a basket, get an assist, or wateva, it’s just all so much fun!
