Bora and I on Geeks on a Beach



My colleagues and I  recently visited Boracay Island - the Summer Tropical Paradise of the Philippines. And here is my journal of the most unforgettable encounter and awesome Geek on a Beach Conference held in the beautiful island of Boracay.

I was so excited to prepare everything needed for that trip, if there's a word more to described my excitement, may be that's it! Because of my extreme excitement we arrived in the airport as early as 8:00 in the morning well infact our flight was supposed to be on 11am to 12pm.

Few minutes before boarding, I felt like something was giggling within me, knowing that in 30 to 45 minutes I'd be in the place I ever dreamed of. However, while we were in the air already, we encountered a heavy rain and a cabin crew announced that there was zero visibility, thus makes it difficult for the aircraft to land in the island. And guess what? At that moment my extreme excitement slowly diminished transforming into something nerve racking thing (lol) :)  Good thing the flight crew timely calmed all the passengers.

Praise the Lord! We finally landed in the island safely. Upon landing, I noticed that the airport was so neat, I mean, far from the usual airport setting I'd been.  Nevertheless, It's just simply amazing! hehe. :)

It was a long trip then, it almost took an hour of plane ride with minutes of tricycle and ferry boat ride before finally arrived at Crown Regency Boracay. It was tiresome but all worth it, seeing those turquoise clear beaches in the corner just swept the tiredness away. This is it, this is really is it! :)

I was totally captivated and so amazed by Gods creation. My heart fluttered as the sight of the beach took my breath away. hehe - just exaggerating :). Of course, never we forgot to take pictures there and everywhere we go.

That's it, the first day is over yet the fun just started. Hurry!

The second and third day is the most exciting part where we attended the conference called Geeks on the Beach #GOAB. This is actually our main goal why we flew to the island.

I just really loved the idea of this event. They gathered all the tech hound, business owners, investors, web & mobile developers, digital marketers and tech savvy or "nerd" (as they call it) who used to be just in their offices or small rooms working and coding stuff. And now given a chance to show off their faces to relax, unwind, bring out their swimwears and floaters on the beach and go social. lol. Isn't it cool to see those GEEKS behind those big-time known tech company?

But hey, here's the coolest fact I heard from one of the Google seminar recently.
 The techno savvy are no longer considered 'NERDS' of the world. - its more than that! They are now the coolest kid that rule the world.  Today the 'GEEK' has risen to rock the world!
Which indeed true!




This trip was something I will never forget.

Choose the Right Mate

This for the Single!!!

CHOOSE THE RIGHT MATE

2 Corinthians 6:14-16 

One of the most important keys to a successful marriage is to carefully and prayerfully choose the person you will spend the rest of your life with. Young people get caught up in the romance and the physical attraction, and they don't consider whether the object of their attraction will help or hinder them in their spiritual development. Of course, the foundation for choice should have been laid years before. Just because a person falls in "love", doesn't necessarily mean that person you "love" would make a good spouse. Hormones need to be governed by reason. God made us creatures of choice. In fact, our lives are a product of the choices we make. 

Galatians 6:7-8

God bless us all!

The Marriage Prayer By John Waller

"Our most basic emotional need is not to fall in love but to be genuinely loved by another, to know a love that grows out of reason and choice, not instinct. To be loved by someone who chooses to love you, who sees in you something worth loving. That kind of love can only be found in Christ ... and Christ Himself. "

I made this video recently for my sister Loreen with his fiancee Robby.

This is such a wonderful prayer in a song for couples who believes that Christ is the center of their Relationship.

I hope, you guys love this as I do.

Verse 1:

Father, I said till
Death do us part
I want to mean it
With all of my heart
Help me to love you
More than I love her
Then I know I can
Love her more
Than anyone else

Pre:
And bring her in
Your presence today
Make her what
You want her to be

Chorus:
I pray to hear her heart
I pray she'll love you more
I pray to cherish and serve her
And we'll bring you glory today, I pray

Verse 2 (Josee Waller):
Father, I said till
Death do us part
I want to mean it
With all of my heart
Help me to love you
More than I love him
Then I know I can
Love him more
Than anyone else

Pre:
And bring him in
Your presence today
Make him what
You want him to be

Chorus:

Bridge:
Lord, help me love her
As you love the church, your bride
(Josee) Help me submit to him
As I submit to you, my life

Chorus: (2x)

Out:
This is my prayer Amen 


GOD BLESS US ALL :)
STAY IN LOVE

PAGKAMAAYO MO HESUS
(Tagalog: Kaybuti Mo Hesus)

V1.
Ang tibook kong kasing-kasing
Alang lamang Kanimo
Walay laing manag-iya
Ikaw lang Hesu Kristo

Tungod ka'y kining Kinabuhi
Imong Gasa...
Busa angayan lamang nga
Pagasimbahon Ka.

Cho.

Pagkamaayo mo Hesus
Pagkatahum ning Gugma Mo
Wa'y makalabaw
Sa tiunay'ng kalipay ko..
Dalaygon ka Hesus
Igabayaw ang Ngalan Mo.
Sa tibook kong kasing-kasing
Magapasalamaton ko.

V2.
Sa adunay panayon
Na ako mibiya
Apan ang Imong Gugma
Nagapabilin kanako...

V3.
Ang imong kahibulungan
Nga Grasya
Nagahatag og Paglaum
Kanako.

(Back to Chorus, V3, then chorus2x)

I pray...


Oh Lord, My God,
Give me strength to live another day;

Let me not turn coward before its difficulties or
prove recreant to its duties;
Let me not lose faith in other people;
Keep me sweet and sound of heart, in spite of
ingratitude, treachery, or meanness;
Preserve me from minding little stings or giving them;
Help me to keep my heart clean, and to live so honestly
and fearlessly that no outward failure can dishearten me or
take away the joy of conscious integrity;
Open wide the eyes of my soul that I may see good in all things;
Grant me this day some new vision of your truth;
Inspire me with the spirit of joy and gladness;
and make me the cup of strength to suffering souls;
in the name of the strong Deliverer,
our only Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ. Amen
