National Shrine of St. Therese of Lisseux ( St. Therese of the Child Jesus)


Today, I met an angel beside me on the plane, Tita Nina Manalo, a retired teacher from Rawis, Legazpi City, she's still very active & strong at the age of 77 years old! With no maintenance medicine besides Centrum Silver! I also met her daughter Arlene and good friend kuya Rudy who fetched us from the airport, they have a very good heart, they toured me to the National Shrine of St. Therese of Lisseux (or St. Therese of the Child Jesus). The shrine is huge.  It stands tall, all of 6,200 sq.m sitting by the Villamor Air Base, across NAIA 3. This was the cross-shaped edifice one sees across the new airport, when one’s plane makes a landing. It could be a landmark in future.

I was amazed. Envisioned to be the center of devotion to St. Therese of the Child Jesus in Asia, the Shrine is well-equipped with features and amenities that make a celebration of faith truly enriching. Consider this:
 
  • Center for St. Therese relics
  • Stained glass featuring highlights of St. Therese’s life (itself a museum)
  • Ecclesiastical museum
  • Adoration chapel
  • Family prayer room
  • Complete with video and audio capacities
  • Fully air conditioned
  • Sound-proof 
  • Seating capacity: 1,800 seats 
  • Souvenir shop and a cafe
Where can you find, at least in Asia, an ultramodern shrine, fully-air conditioned, 3 level, with 42″ plasma TV for the psalms and announcements? Only at National Shrine of St. Therese of Lisseux (or St. Therese of the Child Jesus).

The church area itself has a sitting capacity of 1,800 people. Gee, a bride who will walk down its aisle would need to walk 50 meters from the church door to the altar, to display the gown and all in her beaming radiance.

Atop the main entrance of the church (3rd level) is what is called the family, where mothers with young children could sit, separated by glass, without disturbing other church goers.

It is entirely sound proof, such that no matter how many airplanes or helicopters fly over the area, or perhaps, even a coup attack, the noise would not be heard inside the shrine.


DO-IT-YOURSELF Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia


DO-IT-YOURSELF Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Petronas Twin Towers (KLCC Towers)
On our way to the airport

We woke up @ 4 a.m. to be able to catch the air-conditioned Philtranco Bus bound for Clark International Airport @ the pick-up point at the back of Building A SM Megamall, in front of the mall's entrance near Surplus Shop ( think Toy Kingdom, The Soup Kitchen, Powerbooks near the entrance of SM Megamall A along Bank Drive/ St. Francis St.; it is also near St. Francis Square). 

The fare for a one-way ride then costs Php300. Travel time is approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. We had a reservation through e-mail so we boarded ahead of those who don't have a reserved seat.

At Clark International Airport, there were only 2 ATMs. Both died down on us, somebody's card got stuck @ Landbank ATM. That's why nobody could use it. On the other hand, RCBC's ATM has nationwide maintenance break! Talk about convenience eh! Ha ha ha! I was literally penniless. OMG!

Thank God my brother brought some extra money. Naku, if nagkataon mamalimos ako sa kalsada sa Malaysia. (Oh, otherwise, I would be begging in the streets of Malaysia.)

Our flight went a breeze. Congratulations Air Asia for making me feel safe in all the flights I flew with you. 

Going to our hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

After arrival @ airport terminal (LCCT) in KUALA LUMPUR MALAYSIA, we boarded the Air Asia Skybus, the passenger bus of Air Asia that goes to KL Sentral. We pre-booked our seats on this bus online.

We disembarked @ KL Sentral station and said our goodbye to our co-passengers Jonah & Michiko! They headed to McDonalds Restaurant whereas my brother and I had to look for a Rapid bus bound for Bukit Bintang area. 

Nobody understood us when we asked around at KL Sentral on how we can go to our hotel. Then an angel passed by.Hanna, a native of Sarawak, Malaysia. She helped us find our way to the Monorail train station where we can take a ride to Bukit Bintang. Taking the monorail train, she said, is better than taking the Rapid bus at that time in order to avoid traffic.   

Hanna is an avid fan of Claudine Barreto and Rico Yan. She watched the television series "MULA SA PUSO" over and over again and cried a bucket when she learned of the death of Rico Yan. She said she would love Rico Yan forever. She doesn't like Jericho Rosales (his teleserye was shown in Malaysia, too). She said no one else comes close to her idol RICO YAN!

I thought she gonna sing when she told me that she knows the theme song of MULA SA PUSO. He he he. Hi, Hanna! Oh, she's now added to my Facebook. I do agree with you, Hanna. Rico Yan is so handsome♥!

@ Bukit Bintang, we walked all the way from the Monorail train station and passed through Sungei Wang Mall and BB Plaza Mall and made our way to our hotel, RADIUS INTERNATIONAL HOTEL, just a few blocks away from KFC Restaurant in BUKIT BINTANG. 

Guess what? Our room was upgraded to a superior room at the hotel and we had a beautiful view of PETRONAS Twin Towers and other nearby buildings. Plus we get to swim @ its swimming pool and had a bubble bath @ the bath tub.

Since it's my brother's birthday, we looked for a Nando's Chicken outlet and ate its to die for Nando's Chicken Mild Peri peri and had bottomless Iced tea! It was a superb meal! You ought to try it too! I super love its iced tea. Ha ha ha! I had 5! Yehey! Bawi ang bayad! Ha ha ha!

PETRONAS Twin Towers (KLCC Towers)

In the following morning, we went to the 88-storey PETRONAS Twin Towers (also known as PETRONAS Towers) which the locals fondly call KLCC Towers. KLCC stands for Kuala Lumpur City Centre. At the base of these Twin Towers lies the Suria KLCC Mall.

If you tell your cab driver to bring you to Petronas, he will, most probably, bring you to the nearest Petronas gasoline station. Ha ha ha! 

Petronas, the national oil company, by the way, sells its petrol (gasoline) @ RM 1.2/ per liter times 14.1 = 16.92 / liter of gas. I am so jealous! Ha ha ha! And almost all of the cars in Malaysia are European cars and petite cars like KIA, TOYOTA AVANZA, SUZUKI PETITE. Tipid sa Gas!

I bought a Coca Cola in can from a dispenser and paid RM1. When I checked, the price of water per bottle (small one) is RM 2.70. My golly! Gas is cheaper@ 1.20! Remind me to drink gasoline instead of water next time around. Ha ha ha!

@ 1:30 p.m., I inquired at the KLCC Twin Towers concierge if we could get tour the Sky Bridge if some of those who had their tickets reserved earlier don't show up. The manager on duty told us to wait @ 1:45 p.m. and try again. Luckily, 10 people did not show up @ 1:45 p.m., so we got our ID pass/ tickets and we boarded the elevator to the 41st floor Sky Bridge connecting the twin towers in 40 seconds FLAT! Amazing elevator!

[NOTE: When we toured the Sky Bridge, ticket was FREE!!! Starting 2010, however, tickets are sold for the amounts stated beow. The difference is that the ticket now includes tour to the Sky Bridge (Level 41) AND Observation Deck (Level 86). By the way, Level 42 of the Sky Bridge can only be used by tenants of the Twin Towers.]  

PETRONAS Twin Towers are built on the spot of what was once Kuala Lumpur Race Course. In fact, the road behind the structures is still named Kuda (Horse) Road.

At the Sky Bridge

Once you get to the Sky Bridge, an in-house guide will give you a short briefing about your visit. You get to walk and take pictures on this sky bridge for about ten (10) minutes.

From the Sky Bridge, you will see some parts of the city center of KUALA LUMPUR in all their glory. 

In the 1999 movie "Entrapment," actors Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta-Jones escaped from the authorities on the eve of Millennium celebrations by walking ALONG THE TOP of this Sky Bridge!

By the way, the Sky Bridge is open to visitors from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Tuesday to Sunday. Some visitors line up early (some as early as 6:00 a.m.) to get ID passes/ tickets for the Sky Bridge. Sometimes by 9:30 a.m., all the tickets are sold out for the day.

Take note that the Sky Bridge is CLOSED to visitors on Mondays (and some public holidays) and from 1:00 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Fridays.

Cathay Pacific


I always fly Cathay Pacific whenever I went to Hongkong or China, I love their service and wide seats ( food is ok since we got lucky, we overslept & when we woke up, they run out of stock of the economy food and gave us business class food yehey! ) and whenever they are late they compensate by giving free bottled water and sandwiches, like last April 24, 2009 they are 20 minutes late so to pacify the passengers they let everyone have a free sandwich, sodas, and water yum yum! Cathay Pacific is really cool!

MANNY PACQUIAO VS. RICKY HATTON



link of round 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VleE27xzxI

link of round 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxfHWTETT_o



CONGRATS MANNY "PACMAN" PACQUIAO~!

Yes, I am a boxing fan! Before Manny Pacquiao I hate boxing, but since  Manny is a fresh breath of air, aba nawala ang pagkarimarim ko sa suntukan, tuwang tuwa akong nag che cheer habang sinusuntok niya ang kanyang kalaban ( sorry mom and dad, bad influence daw ang boxing kasi violent, hi hi hi!) Sasabayan pa ng pustahan with my brother and friends aba, syempre ganadong ganado ka na pag susuntukin ni Manny ang kalaban hanggang ito ay mapa tumba! Tandang tanda ko pa nga na ang gwapong gwapo na si Oscar de la Joya ay naging pangit, right before my very eyes, naku kawawa talaga, hayz! Pero hindi lamang ako ang na adik sa boxing, lahat ata ng tao sa Pilipinas at sa buong mundo ay naging fans na ni Manny Pacquiao, actually pati mga Hollywood superstars ay nagkakandarapa sa paghabol at pagsunod kay Manny, kaliwa't kanan sa kanila ay nag pre presenta na maging alalay ni Manny o hawi boys sa kanyang mga susunod na laban. Akalain mo ba naman ang kapalaran! Dati sa Bayang ng Polomolok, naging taga tinda ng cellophane at kargador sa Palengke si Manny, noon siya ay nakipanuluyan sa kanyang Tiya. Ngayon ay isa na siyang mayaman, err napaka YAMAN na WORLD CLASS BOXER, tinitingala hindi lamang sa atin bansa kungdi maging sa ibang panig ng MUNDO. RICH AND FAMOUS na siyang matatawag. Kaya ikaw at ako, maging sino ka man, wag mawawalan ng pag asa, kung ini itsa pwera ka nila ngayon, iniisnab, o kinakawawa, aba magsumikap ka, pagsumikapan mo na linangin ang GOD's GIFT mo, malay mo isang araw makilala ka rin hindi lamang sa Pilipinas kungdi maging sa Buong Mundo tulad ng aking idolo na si Manny Pacquiao. Dahil sa mga tulad ni Manny proud ako magsabi na PILIPINO ako!
