Peace and Tranquility at Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife

Guess where this abounding greenery scene was shot? Right in the middle of the thick smug-filled Quezon City! Who would have thought one could still find such fresh and quiet location in the city? Yup, you can get that in Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife.

On the second day of our photography workshop, we drove to that northern side to practice our shooting skills on the park's animals, trees, gazebos, walkways, the lagoon, and people. It was a drizzly Sunday morning but we still managed to get some good shots like this one. Aside from taking photos, you can also jog, sleep under a tree shade, take a date, propose to someone, read a good book, have a picnic, or spend some of your own "moments" here. If you haven't done such in a long time, why not begin it in this park named after Benigno Aquino. :)

How The Flowers Bloom

This is how the flowers bloom with me on the month of February. (This photo was taken February 2009)

One of the (million) things my mom is good at, which I'm not very good at, is gardening. We have a lovely garden at home, all courtesy by mom. I don't know how she does it, where she buys her tools and plants, how often she waters it (now you can really see how I'm not very interested at that)... all I know is she's passionate about it. How domesticated. So very housewife-y.

And I know I have to be prepare to be like her one of these days. If I plan to have a husband. If I plan to have a family. Haha!

So come visit my mom's garden at Pilar Street. You think only Sonya has the nicest garden? ;)
