Most Popular Country in the World
I considered Germany as my second home and i was very happy when i read an article that it is the most popular country in the world. Here is the article--
Germany is the most popular country in the world despite well-publicised protests against its insistence on austerity measures within the European Union, an annual poll for the BBC World Service revealed on Thursday.
More than 26,000 people from around the world were asked to rate 16 countries on whether their global influence was "mainly positive" or "mainly negative".
Some 59 percent of those polled rated Germany as having a positive influence, while at the other end of the spectrum, Iran came last with only 15 percent looking upon it favourably.
Even in Spain, which is suffering from stringent austerity measures due to a German-led financial rescue package, 68 percent said they felt Germany had "a mainly positive influence in the world".
Respondents in Greece, which has seen anti-German protests depicting Chancellor Angela Merkel as a Nazi for her insistence on fiscal belt-tightening, gave it the worst rating with 52 percent saying it was a bad influence.
Germany displaced Japan at the top of the table, with the Asian giant's popularity falling from 58 percent last year to 51 percent.
Canada and Britain scored second and third, both with 55 percent positive ratings, while Pakistan and North Korea completed the bottom three.

Santacruzan 2013
Last year, my family host the santacruzan and this year its the Dela Cruz family's turns. My son and some of my grandchildren joined the Flores de Mayo, a popular religious festival held in many towns and cities throughout the Philippines as the highlight of the month-long celebration during the month of May. It is usually celebrated with a parade of decorated floats and elaborately dressed participants, representing various aspects of the Virgin Mary and other figures.

My Birthday
Today is my birthday and i just have a simple celebrations with my loved ones. I spend my great day shopping for some household stuff at Wilcon, lunch at Super bowl chinese restaurant in Alabang and at the Old Spaghetti house, attended Annabel's 50th birthday at Southforbes clubhouse, bonding with my daughters at home and in the clubhouse pool. For me age is just a number what is important is your inner self and how you look at life's perspective.
