Don't you just love it when it rains?
This morning it was drizzling, the sky blanketed with darkness, and the weather cold. I was sound asleep enjoying the comfort of my bed and soft fluffy pillows when suddenly my trusty alarm sang to the tune of Paradise by T-Max! No offense, I love this song from the Korean TV Series, "Boys Over Flowers" but... Aaaarrrrrrgggggghhhhhh!!!!! Can't I just own the world and declare this day a Non-Working Day!? I want to go back to sleep ... :(
The lyric goes, "ALMOST PARADISE achimboda deo nunbushin nal hyanghan neoui sarangi..."
Exactly what I'm feeling! (-c-,) Zzzzz

I personally took the picture in Bohol from our balcony's sea view. Hope you like it! Sarangi! :)
I read parts of Boys Over Flowers. It's a good one.
I love the purples in this shot.
I do love the rain, it sweeps through leaving things clean, fresh and smelling great.
It's true! I don't have to worry for car wash because it leaves my car sparkling clean.

Climate change is real. Addressing climate change requires a mix of mitigation and adaptation. This requires more mitigation for industrialized countries and more adaptation for developing countries.
This can be translated into one simple scenario : While the industrialized world continues to send up tonnes of carbon into the atmosphere, whether or not we blur the amounts through carbon credits,
hopes are fading for those who will be receiving the sharp end of the Damocles sword; the developing world. The urgency is to realize that this is not going to stop at 350 ppm, or even double at 600 ppm, the Philippines has to realize that despite all the petitions and feel good campaigns of dreams for a climate stabilized world, real solutions need to be done. We have to get to the part where we learn
to start dealing with this. The country is located right beside the warmest parts of the ocean that is in the perfect storm of vulnerable coastlines, intense winds, and an observation of growing dumping of
large amounts of rain. We need to live in a world where climate will hit the poorest of the poor first, regardless of where they live, it will test our resiliency as a city, as a village, as a community, and
specially as a people. This song is dedicated to the awareness that dealing with one ONDOY is not the victory, but a climate of change will be the battle of this generation.
