Hotel Room in Manila

So I like to take pictures of my Hotel rooms because I think they are cool. Yes, I know I’m a complete geek, but yeah that’s who I am.

So I’ll begin with the main part of the room which just has a bed, a chair with a foot rest, a desk and TV. I have a big window which doesn’t have a great view but it’s ok and I don’t have a balcony. The TV is just barely out of shot but it’s a nice TV. DSCN0070

The next part is part of the bathroom. Just a normal bathroom with a toilet and a sink.

You don’t have to be in the tub to shower because the floor has a drain in it so the entire room was a kind of shower. It was cool, plus the shower actually opened up into the room with a window, but it did have a curtain to cover the window.

Pringles

Well if Jenny was reading this post she would get a kick out of that title, but she doesn’t read my blog. That was her knick-name way back when.

Anyway Pringles has nothing to do with Jenny. What I’m writing about is something that I thought was funny to see here in Manila. Pringles chip Asian flavor. You can get Pringles in original or cheese, but then they also had Seaweed flavor and crab flavor. I wanted to take a picture, but I had to go.

Manila

I cannot believe how fast time flies. I swear it was just September and I was just beginning the MWV project. Now I’m one week from going to Manila and training. You know I’m a bit nervous because all my work will kind of come to a head here in a bit. Either all my hard work will pay off and things will go kind of smoothly or I will realize that I was not thorough enough. Obviously I hope it is the first of the two, but we’ll see.

I have way too much to do next that I’m afraid I will not have time to prepare for my trip. I want to see people and do things before I go, but there is a lot of work still to be done. It’s funny because I was thinking these last three months were going to be easy and I would have lots of time to get things done, but no not for me. I have actually been more busy then I was in the months before.

Anyway I will be glad to go back to Manila, I actually enjoy it there. Plus this time I am actually going to have someone come visit, two people actually. I bought Michaelene and my dad plane tickets to come visit me. I’m kind of excited because every time I go down there I think “my dad would enjoy this” now he actually does get to enjoy it. Well I included a few of my favorite pictures from previous trips.100_4020 100_1392 100_1298

New Camera

I haven’t had a camera for awhile because my 3 year old camera decided it was time to move on. I hate having posts without pictures mainly because I love pictures so I haven’t really been doing much blogging. I finally bought a new camera and here is the first picture on my new cam.

Technology

So I haven’t posted anything, but since I am on a plane thought it would be cool to post while flying. Isn’t Technology amazing. Not only am I thousands of feet in the air, but I am able to talk to someone instantly, well if there was anyone online. It makes me think of that video “Everything’s amazing and no one is happy”. Although the difference here is I am happy. I am able to get home and see my family for the Easter weekend. One of my favorite things about flying is look out the windows and seeing a sea of clouds. It’s such a serene sight simple and beautiful. What’s even better are the days that when it’s rainy, dark and cloudy and breaking through the clouds it’s all of the sudden peaceful, even if it was a bumpy ride to get to that point. Anyway I’m should probably do my homework, that is why I am online. To be honest it’s a little bit expensive.

Hiking

So Friday I got a text inviting people from the Singles ward to on hike around Tooele county. I thought it would be fun even though I am in terrible shape. However, if I don’t do things like this then I will not get in shape. So there were only 5 total people, Me, Holly, Jeremy, Joe and Commodore. We went up a trail that was above Stansbury. It was a beautiful hike and not as cold as I thought it was going to be. Although that might be because I was working out and keeping warm that way. It was really beautiful, we could the Tooele valley and the Salt Lake. Although I don’t have a camera and so I don’t have picture :(

Anyway it was a ton of fun even though it kicked my butt. It is really sad how out of shape I have gotten. The last few years it has kind of creeped up on me. I miss going country dancing for that reason. I think that is why I was a stead weight all those years. I was working out enough to not gain weight but not enough to lose weight. Hopefully soon I can get the motivation to lose the weight.

Home Again Home Again

So I’ve now been home for 4 days and wow can I say it has been nice. I am loving being home mainly just because I can work from home. Also it’s nice to get into the singles ward a bit more. Usually when I come home it would only be for the weekend so I didn’t get a chance to be a part of the activities outside of the church meetings. So far being home these last couple of days I have joined in two different activities and have had a blast. It really is a lot more fun to talk and hang out with people I want to be more like. Not that I have, but it is not fun to hang out with the people who think the only thing fun to do is drink. Although I am sad because my camera is not working well and so I never seem to have a camera. I went to buy one with Rashelle and almost did, but everyone I wanted they seemed to be out of so I took it as a sign that I should save my money and figure out what is wrong with my camera.
