Iloilo City Welcomes 2015 with a BANG of Fireworks Display

I woke up on December 31st of the year 2014, knowing that it's the last day of the year. I opened my Facebook account early in the morning to greet my friends, family, relatives and the persons I've met with specially to my girlfriend. I went to our rooftop and wonder upon the the thick creamy clouds like it's going to rain, people going to church nearby the house where I grew up, children playing enjoying the streets, blowing horns, playing firecrackers, people around is busy cooking preparing foods for new years eve. Grocery stores is like hell because of the very long line. I think about what was my 2014 all about, all the blessings, love, and the things I do. I went down to my room and once again open my computer.

After opening one of my friend send me a picture of a news paper with my photo of a fireworks display last 2014. I was surprised!, and so happy that on the last day of 2014 for the first time in my life I have my picture printed on a news paper.

On that same day Iloilo City is preparing a fireworks display to welcome 2015 with a 10 second countdown with the people of Iloilo at Mulle Loney along the Iloilo River. This was the 5th times the city is doing it to help people get rid of those firecrackers that could harm themselves. To cut the story short we were all having fun. I was there, my father, my brother, my mother, my cousins - we were all there. As I was preparing my camera I turn my head north south west east and saw many good looking foreigners joining us in welcoming the year 2015.

10 - 9 - 8 - 7 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 -1 ----- Music Starts so then the BOOM starts. Iloilo City Welcomes the year 2015 with a BANG of Fireworks Display. 

I would like to greet everyone a Happy New Year, blessing to you all. God Bless.

"

In addition, Habito encourages MSMEs to gear up for AEC 2015. He said "First, MSMEs should be able to strengthen and professionalize their financial and overall business management.

Therefor I want to share my story on my 1st and 2nd time around.

The first time I went to Boracay was not s enjoyable because we went as a performer of one of the Hotels and it was so tiring and stressful. This time, the second time around it's different, even though I went to attend a seminar with my schoolmates, we have a lot of lime left to enjoy the place. 

I went to Boracay with a 5000 peso budget. We planned to eat at Andoks or Mang Inasal to save some money, but at the end of the day we decided to buy raw foods just near the hotel where we stay at D'Mall Palengke, palengke is a tagalog word for Supermarket. This is my first time in traveling counting my money.
