THANK YOU MISS UNIVERSE!

 I can't say or express enough how we Filipinos are grateful enough for all the help and contributions you made in the rehabilitation efforts on the Typhoon Yolanda aftermath and as we said before we are forever indebted to all your good deeds to us. May you inspire us Filipinos to do our own share of even a simple kindness or good deeds to others as our way of give back and saying thank you and may you continue to help a lot more others. A special thanks to Miss Universe owner Donald Trump, Miss Universe Org. President Ms. Paula Shugart, and Miss Universe 2013 Gabriela Isler of Venezuela who came to the Philippines to foresee the progress of the project and to celebrate with the Filipinos the gift of resiliency seeing sincere smiles and laughter in our faces.

God Bless You All!

Playing The Sims 4: Introduction

I have been playing The Sims since decade ago and the rest they say is history. I have been playing The Sims, The Sims 2 and 3, The Sims Medieval and now The Sims 4. It is entertaining, fun as it is addictive controlling the lives of your characters and how you want to run their lives all throughout their Sims life stages. More importantly, the things that are happening in the game also happen sometimes in real life or the opposite it making it more exciting to play the game. 

The Sims 4 brings new twist to the games' series as it brings out new game play features like emotions, facial expressions that influence how they behave and act, graphic interface etc. Just like in the previous series of The Sims, I will post screenshots of my games with captions and descriptions about it. I hope you enjoy it.

For the meantime, since The Sims 3 I have been using cheat codes to enhance further my gameplay. For the Sims 4, here are my favorite cheat codes I have been using.

Iloilo Ang Banwa Ko

This is Iloilo province most popular folk song which is already anthemic to the people of the place. Written in Hiligaynon, the song evokes a sense of pride, loyalty and patriotism to the land where we born and grow up. Included here is the lyrics of the song in Hiligaynon with its English translation.

Iloilo Ang Banwa Ko Song featuring all the towns, festival, events and happenings in Iloilo 

Iloilo Ang Banwa Ko Reggae Version 

Iloilo Ang Banwa Ko performed by the University of the Philippines Madrigal Singers with the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra



ILOILO ANG BANWA KO


Iloilo ang banwa ko guinahingadlan
Matam-is nga pulong ang amon guinmat-an
Indi ko ikaw bulagan
Banwa kong nahamut-an
Ikaw ang guintunaan sang kalipayan

Ilonggo ako nga tunay
Nga nagapuyo sa higad sang baybay
Manami magkiay-kiay
Sa tagipusuon
Bug-os ang kalipay



ENGLISH TRANSLATION


My beloved hometown Iloilo
Sweet words which we grew up with
I will not leave you my dear hometown
You are the source of joy and happiness

I'm a true Ilonggo
That lives by the coast
Beautifully swaying hips
In my heart full of joy

Sana'y Wala Nang Wakas Song Translation

The song is sung by Miss Sharon Cuneta, a local Philippine actress and was the official theme song of the 1986 movie of the same title. I love the song so deep, so enthralling that makes me sob and teary eyed. You can sing the song if you want. Here is the music of the song with the single cover of the song with Sharon Cuneta in the picture. Included also here is the English translation of the lyrics. It is the official theme song of the movie of the same title "Sana'y Wala Nang Wakas" which was released in 1986 starring Sharon Cuneta, Dina Bonnevie, Cherie Gil, Dindo Fernando, Tonton Gutierrez and the late Jay Ilagan among others. 
 







Sana'y Wala Nang Wakas
by Sharon Cuneta

 I
Sana'y wala nang wakas
Kung pag-ibig ay wagas
Paglalambing sa iyong piling
Ay ligaya kong walang kahambing

II
Kung di malimot ng tadhana
Bigyang tuldok ang ating ligaya
Walang hanggan ay hahamakin
Pagka't walang katapusan kitang iibigin

Chorus:
Kahit na ilang tinik ay kaya kong tapakan
Kung iyan ang paraan upang landas mo'y masundan
Kahit ilang ulit ako'y iyong saktan
Hindi kita maaring iwanan
Kahit ilang awit ay aking aawitin
Hanggang ang himig ko'y maging himig mo na rin
Kahit ilang dagat ang dapat tawarin
Higit pa riyan ang aking gagawin

Sana'y wala nang wakas (sana'y wala nang wakas)
Kapag hapdi ay lumipas
Ang mahalaga ngayon ay pag-asa
Dala nang pag-ibig
Saksi buong daigdig (saksi buong daigdig)

Repeat II
Repeat Chorus

Coda:
‘Di lamang pag-ibig ko
‘Di lamang ang buhay kong ibibigay
Sa ngalan nang pag-ibig mo
Higit pa riyan aking mahal, ang alay ko


English Translation

I
Wish it will never end
If love is pure
Tenderness by your side
Is my happiness without comparison

II
If not forgotten by destiny
Put a halt on our happiness
Infinity will be cursed
Because I will love you endlessly


Chorus:

I can step on the thorns no matter how many
If that's the way to follow your path
No matter how many times you hurt me
I cannot leave you
I can sing just how many songs
Until my melody is also yours
I can cross just how many ocean
I can do more than that

III
Wish it would never end
When the pain has passed
What is important now is hope
Brought by love
Witness by the whole world

Repeat II
Repeat Chorus
Coda

Coda:
Not only my love
Not only my life to offer
In the name of your love
More than that my love, my dedication/offer
