well, this is both a wish list and a to-do list, long-term...
1. study classical singing
i hear favorable comments about my voice, especially during Sunday mass. i have had some strangers comment positively because we were seated near each other and they could hear me singing. =)
i think my voice box, though, is built for classical singing rather than pop singing. i can't do birit as much as i try. but i notice how my voice is much more effortless when i'm singing church songs. and i ease into diaphragmatic breathing. i wish i could turn into a pavarotti.
2. dive
i've had three 'discovery dives', aptly termed because such dives allow one to discover the joys of diving. unfortunately, i haven't done the full dive instruction. my HK hike buddy is a certified dive instructor. and we have been emailing on how to set up a dive class soon. hopefully, this materializes by may. ill call it the Sea Reyna dive camp!
3. hike
from the depths of the sea to the heights of the mountain. a high school friend is so into it, part of a G4M thread (i think) guys for mountains? (cute no?). they have made hiking a beaucon at 3,000 ft above sea level. hahaha. i don't know if i could get around to do this, though.
4. own a bar
i already have a nano-enterprise in a carinderia. im now wishing that i also own a bar. nothing really special. except that i and my staff would make our guests feel really special with that 'personal touch'!
5. build house
who doesn't dream of putting together his own house? well, this might happen sooner than later. maybe i'm tired of condo living.
6. turn vegetarian
this is part of a plan to stay fit for life. a part of me thinks that i could stay lean by being vegetarian. but i haven't gotten in touch with that part of me. hehe

I turned hybrid when I was assigned the the day shift. There's this vegetarian restaurant a few steps away from our building, which has become my dining place lately.
Good luck!!
i dream of #4 as well. but i'm thinking it's more of a bar owned by joe in grey's anatomy, where doctors and nurses would hang-out and have a great time... maybe talk to the bartender. unlike the ones in malate. :-)
i have a favorite resto-bar back in makati. it's behind makati med, i believe it's Cafe Agogo. i love it there. ;-)
hi, cc. good luck on your long-term to-do list. they sound exciting. I'm starting a new decade in my life, and this entry inspires me to set things and hopefully at the end of each succeeding year, may milestone ako. and happy birthday (belated or in advance).
wow, except for the singing part (i can't sing at all), i have exactly the same list. i'm already mostly vegetarian.
Can I apply as DJ in your bar?
we share the same at #4 & 5
if i were filthy rich,
i wanna have my self-designed bar and house that will reflect my personality. something that is one-of-a-kind
I don't recommend being vegetarian. Vegies are not good source of protein. Being vegetarian will not make you look lean. You can look lean by reducing total calories and increasing protein.
sigurado kang hindi inspired ng "naked men singing" yung no. 1?
hehe :)
Hi cc, its been a long time. Lonely heart here. M not sure if you remember. It does not matter.
You may not post this one.
Just wanna encourage you bout #s 1 to 3. M nto those, sort of. Except that i haven't had the chance to get a diving license yet and m not strictly adhering to the bel canto manner of singing. I suggest you start by joining a choir that is conducted by a pro. With regard to mountaineering, masaya nga siya. Why dont you request your friend to bring you to Mount Kinabalu in Malaysia? Its one of the highest in SE asia but very easy to climb.
Cheers. :-)
I still say we start that Fab bar idea we were throwing around. :P
My diver's license got lost and PADI doesn't have a record of my license as well..... If u are going for a diving course, hit me up. I need to start fresh anyways. Been out of the sea too long ><
jetblue: hey i like the new photo.. seems like cc is slowly coming out of the c.. :)
On #6. A couple of years ago, I tried to go vegetarian. I failed because I did it for the wrong reason.
Last year, I just decided to try and do it again. This time, I was more successful because I was really resolved and I decided to do it for myself. The motivation: Health reasons and watching a LOT of PETA videos.
Uhm, But I only went pesco-vegetarian. (I love seafood too much to give it up. Haha!)
Good luck! You can do it. It's possible even if we're living in a meat-loving country. Hehe!
Am trying to get tony to go hike Mt Kinabalu as part of this year's adventure trip. Interested? Check out some of the pictures from the peak.

====== Quote from wiki =======
Climbers must be accompanied by guides at all times. The climb starts at the Kinabalu park headquarters at 1,563 m (5,128 feet).
Accommodation is available inside the park or outside near the headquarters. From there, climbers proceed to the Timpohon gate at 1800 m (5900 ft), either by minibus or by walking, and then walk to the Laban Rata hut at 3300 m (10,800 ft). Most people accomplish this part of the climb in 3 to 6 hours. Since there are no roads, the supplies for the Laban Rata hut are carried by porters, who bring up to 30 kilograms of supplies on their backs. Hot food and beverages, hot showers and heated rooms are available at the hut. The last 2 km (2600 ft), from the Laban Rata hut at 3300 m to Low's Peak (summit) at 4100 m, takes between 2 and 4 hours. The last part of the climb is on naked granite rock.
Given the high altitude, some people may suffer from altitude sickness and should return immediately to the bottom of the mountain[citation needed], as breathing and any further movement becomes increasingly difficult.
A typical descent from the summit is quicker but it is often equally painful as the ascent: knee joints, ankle joints and toes tend to suffer as the climbers descend more than 3000 m (9850 ft) in five hours.
