Felicidad's 1st Death Anniversary😢


Today is my nanny's first death anniversary. She died exactly one year ago today and you can read about it here!

We don't call her nanny but we call her auntie or her nickname Auntie Peling. She's been with our family for over half a century & worked all her life with us and one of the very few people who genuinely care about us and treated us as a family and our feelings towards her is mutual.

She's so special to me that I named a 6.90 carats flawless Santa Maria aquamarine after her!

I have a beautiful plan about this I am probably going to set in a ring using gold from her hometown which a small scale goldmining is one of the livelihood of the town.


My nanny also live in a town with beautiful white sand beaches though it is polluted now because of the siltation and the pollution that came from a big mine in the town but when it was clean and untamed way back in 1999 or so the waters reminds me of this aquamarine gem which is also my nanny's birthstone! I also think of mounting pigeon blood red rubies into the ring coz red is my nanny's obvious favorite color!

The finished jewelry designed and created by me in honor of her will soon be revealed!❤

And 'Moonriver' is her favorite song...🎼🎹

Lost Ancient Philippine Goldsmith Technique

Image
Last June  I blogged  about the lost ancient goldsmithing technique of ancient filipinos that no modern jewelers could replicate that are being displayed at The Bangko Sentral Ng Pilipinas Museum and Ayala Museum in Makati.  Today there is a revival of that lost jewelry making technique but no matter how hard modern jewelers tried to replicate the old ways of jewelry making they cannot copy an exact replica coz they've been missing something that we no longer have in modern times and I have this feeling that the ancient filipino goldsmiths are using ancient alien technology to make elaborate jewelries.  The granulation technique of the ancient filipino jewelries is the best in the history of mankind! Even better than the Etruscans. The tiny well rounded symmetrical granules must have been made by some laser and anti gravity thingy of some sort of  lost ancient alien technology. The fact that the ancient designs could not be totally copied by even he best of modern

PDU30 2nd State Of The Nation Address👊

Image
Today is President Rodrigo Roa Duterte's 2nd State Of The Nation Address or SONA. As expected his speech is long and entertaining to the delight of the live audience and those wathching on tv like me. He addressed about his accomplishments & what are the most important things his administration should prioritize such as elimination of destructive mining, creating jobs, healthcare and the traffic problem as well as putting a stop on rebellion, insurgencies, terrorism and the passage of the death penalty bill. He also addresed the nation on those that needs further strenghtening such as the 'war on drugs', criminalities and corruption.  But the truth is I don't really need to hear what he's done or continue to do and what he accomplished coz over 85% of the Filipino people felt the change he promised during the election & year after he sat into office we are satisfied with what he is doing to our country and we trust him that what he does and will do is

My Bet For Miss World Philippines 2017 👑

Image
Miss World Philippines 2017 pageant night is tommorow and for the first time since 2011 this pageant doesn't have a sure winner coz there is at least 4 to 5 who can win the major title of Miss World Philippines 2017! The other 3 minor crowns are oh well minor & I can't even memorize what they are. The MWP has a new pageant director Arnold Vegafria a popular talent manager in The Philippines since Cory Quirino decided to let go of the Miss World Philippines franchise after she felt as well as the overwhelming majority thinks Catriona Gray was deliberately robbed from the Miss World 2016 pageant last year which caused the Miss World Organization to lose their appeal worldwide especially to the Filipinos. But Julia Morley, the current Miss World Stephanie del Valle and Mister World Rohit, including the grandson of Nelson Mandela  & the rest of the Miss World Organization are ass kissing us here in The Philippines for winning the hearts of the BIGGEST pageant fans in t
