The Good Life In The Land Down Under

Next to USA and Canada, Filipino immigrants mostly choose Australia. For greener pastures, they say, immigrants choose Australia because of the similar but a more relaxed way of living as that of America. Though cultural differences exist, like as to sport, coffee serving, beaches, national flag respect, and more (you have to Google America and Australia differences to know), Australia is still considered a great place to live, work, tour around and study.

Just like any other developed (and most developing) countries, one of the prioritized areas by the government is in life insurance. In Australia, there are many agencies that offer life insurance plans with a bunch of good benefits at hand. If you talk about affordable and easy to understand life insurances, then it is no problem looking for it in Australia.

Swimming Pool Ad For Regional Environmental Awareness

Global warming has gotten into us, right? But not all of us are concerned. I’ve seen several who don’t mind. But I do. And with that, let me share this unique environmental awareness advertisement.

The advertisement was placed in a swimming pool to give a metaphorical sense to one of the effects of global warming — water levels rising. Let’s compare it to our skylines submerged in water. Are we ever going to let that happen?

“Don’t let this be our future. Save our rainforest, stop global warming.”

Got this beautiful photo from Creative Criminals. Let’s all together save our planet. Please.

Merry Christmas 2009!

Amidst the busy schedule (haha) and all the tasks waiting to be done, I’m still giving time to writing this Christmas post. Christmas 2009 will probably be one of those Christmases that I’ll remember maybe for a lifetime. It has been amazing. And I’ll attribute it to a hella lot of people.

Last Sunday in church, the priest’s homily was all about happiness. Even though drowsiness is knocking my butt off that time, I still managed to digest what the priest has been trying to relay. Well that priest surely is an effective one as I usually just snort out on homilies. Anyways, he was telling about how people, and not material stuff, could be our very own sources of happiness. Even strangers. And that we ourselves can be the same way too — sources of happiness. I thought, well this should be what Christmas would be all about: happiness.

I admit I am very happy this Christmas. There are a lot to thank of. First are my friends at school. We’ve been together for almost 8 years running now. And we’ve been through a lot of stupid fights and issues the past years. And they are really a waste of time. I’m happy that this Christmas, we are all at peace, friends and closer. Forever.

Second to my Cebu Bloggers Society. Christmas 2008 was really dull. I’m not part of CBS yet that time. I remember seeing their Christmas 2008 party photos and I never expected that I’d already be  a part of them in their next Christmas celebration. Without CBS, life is… uhm, nothing.

I’d also like to thank the many people who have contributed to making my Christmas special. I cannot mention each one here. I don’t want to make this post longer.

And of course, to my family. No need for words. And to God, for Christmas.

And to all my readers (even though there’s only a few), MERRY CHRISTMAS! Hope you have an amazing holiday celebration. Spread happiness.
