Kulay-FUL JEEPNEYS

One of the distinct and unique things one could see in the Philippines is the very colorful public utility vehicles called “jeepneys”. These PUVs convey 20 people maximum capacity, from one place to another; usually with specific route that is only within the boundary of the franchise applied for with the municipal or local government. These examples are Baguio-Trancoville, Baguio-La Trinidad, Baguio-Aurora Hill and among others. In some places, these jeepneys are color coded. Like for an instance in Angeles, Pampanga, where green jeepneys are only bound on Marisol-C-point Highway route.

WONDERFUL SUNSETS OF MY LIFE

     Sunsets always warms my soul every time I witness it. I don't know what mystery it holds but it always fills me with emotions that are very hard to identify. But most of the times, sunset always fills me with yearning akin to being far away from home and wanting to go back. I can't say that it is homesickness since even before I was still living where I was born, I felt like the way I feel every time the suns sets in the horizon. Whatever it is, sunset captivates my heart and is the most wonderful sight to behold.

     The beauty of sunset differs. The mountain sunset entirely differs from the sea sunset. Their beauty hold different mysteries as the night prepares its way to conquer the world. Sunset in the mountains seems to come earlier than the sunset when you are viewing it in the sea. However both of them are wonderful. Both of them captivates my soul. Both of them are mysterious. Both of them consist spectrum of colors ranging from orange to red to yellow to indigo.
