Once in a while- we get a story that's so inspiring, we get goosebumps all over. I got this a few days ago- when I was watching AFC channel on ASTRO, and it was a 30 minutes special about a certain chef named HOMARO CANTU.
I knew Anthony Bourdain, I knew Jamie Oliver and I knew Gordon Ramsay- those are all famous celebrity chef. But this Homaro Cantu- even the name is somewhat unique.
Homaro Cantu- is aa chef specializing in molecular gastronomy cuisine. What's that? He's a food scientist, food engineer and food designer. He is a genius who didn't excel much in the normal school curriculum.
He is the man who invented the edible menus. He's still continuing to make experiments on food- and he's a downright family man to the bone.
What was so inspiring was his journey to success. Homeless, poverty ridden- all he had when he's growing up was his passion for food and cooking. He even worked for free in countless restaurants just to get the experience.
And now- he's one of the most successful chef cum entrepreneur cum restaurant owner cum food scientist in the world.
So Homaro Cantu inspired me. From his story I learned that no matter how hard life was and will be, it's up to us to push forward or let it be. Remember life is what we make of it. It's in our own hands.
After some weeks of doing shopping via ebay- my things finally arrived. My hubby could only watch in amazement as i begin to get packages by packages. huhuhuhuhu...All of my kids Christmas gifts had arrived and they are using them as of now. I bought my hubby a a pair of Original Adidas Shoes, which is a rare item and a crocodile polo shirt..hihihi...it's only mine and my sisters Christmas things that haven't arrived yet. Perhaps because it was shipped from the USA...hohohohoho..Merry Christmas everyone!!!!
I planned to bank in the money to my dad then go to school and meet my GB..I also have some questions to ask the PT at our school concerning the 'revised salary' as announced by the national teachers association recently...hihihihhi...
And as i was typing, a colleague of mine called, GB is in a very good mood and willingly wants to sign for anyone's who's interested in making loans to any banks. well, i told her, i have done mine earlier, about two weeks ago..but mine was the housing loans. yes, we-government servants, should do/make loans before next year, because next year all the loan interest will go up and up and up- don't know how much for sure, but it will go up. Do your loans now- guys, if you need it. If not- good for you...Loans are only for the needy like myself...LOL...;-P

i hope we can all educate ourselves more on matters concerning health especially about HIV/AIDS..because it is not a disease which is isolated from us anymore, nowadays. we face this everyday, and though this disease has no cure (until now) please be rest assured that it is not easy to be transmitted. we can easily be infected with hepatitis than with this disease due to the weak nature of HIV/AIDS itself whilst it's outside of the human body. So be thankful..I firmly believe that God is That Great and That ever divine, that much Loving that He would not be unfair to the human. Please, read some, and learn some about this disease so that we won't make assumption of this disease and to get us better protected against this disease..one thing for sure- it's all about protected lifestyle, right..live and love the right way...we would surely stay healthy...and remember people living with HIV/AIDS nowadays live longer than most of the 'healthier'(living without it)ones. They should not be the subject of such degradding and malicious 'tale'about spreading HIV/AIDS disease by contaminating drinking waters. By all means, get a life people (who puts this fake rumour in the first place)..
