Under

Sixty seven years after the cornerstone of the Quezon Memorial Circle was first laid, the first underpath was constructed from the park to the city hall. It was named after the current mayor, Feliciano Belmonte, Jr.



When I took this photo, there were very few people down there. Maybe its the lack of sufficient lighting that scares them off. Or maybe, they'd still prefer the thrill that is brought to them when they run for their lives when crossing the main highway. Admit it or not, Pinoys are not exactly popular on following traffic and pedestrian rules. Its a Monday and I hope you all stay safe on the road.

Taho

In the neighborhood where I grew up, we kids all rush to meet our ultimate morning hero - the taho vendor. We're reduced to adoring fans waiting to be acknowledged and be given our own little cup of white, warm soft goodness mixed with that golden syrup arnibal and lots of firm sago. Yum, yum.

Happy Mother's Day

It's not easy being a mother. If it were easy, fathers would do it.
-from the television show The Golden Girls


They say that motherhood is an all-day, everyday job that is all about giving, giving, giving. Whew! Here's hoping that all moms get their well-deserved hugs (and kisses) not only today but each and every single day of their lives.

Kyusi

The Quezon Memorial Circle is to Quezon City as what the Rizal Park is to Manila.

Statesman and Patriot,
Lover of Freedom,
Advocate of Social Justice,
Beloved of His People

-written on the epitaph of the tomb of former Philippine Commonwealth President Manuel L. Quezon (1877-1944).

This was taken a few months back using my old point and shoot camera. I thought it will be nice to feature one of the more prominent landmarks in the city.
