Truth about Long Distance Relationship

Wazzup Pilipinas!

While most of people say that long distance relationship doesn't work. Some may disagree and some may not. If you encounter this kind of scenario some part of your life. Your family may say do not pursue it, or some of your friends would say to play it safe. Keep your options open!

But to tell you the truth its hard as well. I've seen people would trade long distance relationship to the closer partner. You can just be simply friends or can a travel partner. I did it before and its kinda normal. And Its hard to be lonely when you are a hundred miles or a country even continent away from your partner. 

.      

In today's internet world, I can say its not anymore. Because people from far side of the world would fly or sail just to pursue you. I meet this local girl and told her about my relationship that would fall for a certain lady. Which is actually 10 thousand miles away form home. 

Instead she also open her relationship to different parts of the world. Some are in Asia and some are in Europe and Middle East. And told me that if the partner would really pursue, both of you will find a way to meet each other. And the rest of the dating stories goes on.

              .

The further the better, because If you could just imagine if that guy or lady would travel that far for a day or two. Meaning to say he or she is really wanted to risk almost everything for you. And that's the true meaning of love.  Or how far can you go beyond that friendship or activities that you enjoy like sports, club, music, movie or travelling together.

Like looking for a gold or diamond, its not easy but its worth it. Time and effort would be a test aside from money. The more effort and sacrificed that you've made, the more memorable and juicier it become.  Also I've seen friend whose thousand miles away from a boyfriend. Took the next level of relationship by doing a daily voicemail and video-call.

If the partner is busy and in work. She will left and message or voicemail. It not then they constantly doing a video-call. I said that was awesome, the level of trust and excitement with each other were kinda great into the next level. 

Honesty and loyalty is being rewarded. I can attest into that, your partner would really love and appreciate you if you are honest to each other. Like with this scenario, My friend would say, I've hang out with this guy I meet in facebook or any singles dating site. And his trying to bring me to this place. Would you agree?  And the boyfriend would say yes or no or whatsoever. 
     .                                                                                       .
                                                           .

.                                                                                                                                                

.

That kind of honestly made me feel loved. Even in small or big things the partner would tell so you can calibrate with each other limitations and expectations. Just like make your contract and terms with your employer or boss. Either you stick to the terms or you break it. Its up to you which bridge you wanna burn or build and then next!

If you stick and honest with it your boss would reward you. Same here with the relationship, honesty and loyalty were given a big return.  I mean a great reward. Stay positive in that long distance relationship even in your loneliness moment. But you need to understand that the sweetest fruit to reap are those who are ripen thru blood and thirst of seeing each other.

As you close your eyes you will remember heaven. Because you know that, this kind of relationship is more than just sex or even distance. As an Asian guy, Personally I really like how James Bond dated women in different parts of the globe.

Mixed Martial Arts Legends Miesha Tate and Brandon Vera Visit US Troops In Guam

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Former UFC women’s bantamweight champion and current ONE Championship Vice President Miesha Tate joined ONE Heavyweight World Champion Brandon “The Truth” Vera in the US territory of Guam recently to visit American troops stationed at Andersen Air Force Base.

The visit was done in coordination with the United Service Organizations (USO) which saw the two superstars participate in various activities with service members who are assigned far from home.

Both Tate and Vera are globally recognized ambassadors of the sport of mixed martial arts, and regularly partake in corporate outreach initiatives.

“This trip has been spectacular. We love to do this stuff for the military. It’s so cool to see their faces light up for a second after so much sacrifice that they do,” said Tate.

“I got to go on a submarine, which literally blew my mind. I have so much more respect for what they do, if that’s even possible. To go in that tiny submarine and spend all that time they have to spend there, and the dedication they have to stay on point and defend our country it’s just crazy.”

The two martial arts superstars received the opportunity to tour both the Air Force Base and the Naval Base at Andersen, meet-and-greet with service members, sign autographs and take pictures, share meals, and even some time on the beautiful beaches of Guam.

“It’s my first time in Guam, so for me it’s like a new experience. I love it so much I want to come back,” said Tate.

“I love to be able to meet the troops and just show them our gratitude. Sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for everything that you do. It means a lot, the sacrifice you are willing to give if necessary to protect what we enjoy on an everyday basis.”

Vera, who has residency in the country and divides his time between living in the Philippines and in Guam was blown away by the amount of focus the United States has placed in its defense systems to protect its allies.

“I had no idea, and I’ve been here four years,” said Vera.

“You hear these stories and you’re almost crying because it’s about passion, and family, and about connecting with each other and staying connected and helping each other.”

Vera previously served the United States Air Force from 1997 to 1999. There, he joined the wrestling team and trained at the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs. Years later, he was introduced to the sport of mixed martial arts and has built a legendary career ever since.

Today, Vera is one of ONE Championship’s longest-running World Champions and holds the ONE Heavyweight World Title.

Taal Lake Rises from the Ashes thru Watersports

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Watersports like sailing holds hope for Batangueños affected by Taal Volcano’s recent phreatic eruption that started on January 12, 2020. Taal Lake Yacht Club (TLYC) and the Philippine Home Boatbuilders Yacht Club (PHBYC) are organizing the first major sailboat race or regatta on Taal Lake barely three months after the seismic event. The Oz Goose National Championships 2020 will happen in the town of Talisay, Batangas on 28-29 March 2020.

Taal Volcano’s phreatic eruption displaced many of Batangueños, families were moved to evacuation centres and residents of Pulo or Volcano Island had to be resettled as no one is allowed on the island for the foreseeable future. Many residents around Taal Lake rely on tourism for their livelihood, through boat trips to the volcano, volcano tours and horseback rides.

With the Volcano on semi-permanent lockdown, tourism income from volcano trips is no longer an option for these Batangueños, alternatives are needed to bring tourism back to Taal Lake. PHBYC and TLYC believe that this can be through Watersports. This is the reason why both clubs decided to hold the Oz Goose Nationals in Talisay, Batangas. PHBYC’s original plan for 2020 was to hold the regatta in Nasipit, Agusan del Norte where there is a new Oz Goose fleet managed by the Balangay Marina Sailing and Yacht Club. However, recent developments on Taal Lake made them decide to hold the event in Taal Lake again where it has been held for three years running.

According to Michael Storer of PHBYC and a resident of Batangas, “It is important to have activity on the lake to give the residents hope for their future and illustrate how sailing and other watersports can be a sustainable form of tourism income. The layer of volcanic ash that covered Talisay is almost all gone and the vegetation is starting to grow back, changing the color of the surroundings form grey to green.” Mr. Storer added.

The Batangas Tourism Office is equally enthusiastic with the first regatta to be held on the lake after the January 2020 eruption. Ms. Sylvia Marasigan, Provincial Tourism Officer of the province of Batangas said that: “Taal Volcano’s eruption has really stifled tourism income in this area; Taal Lake is the largest body of fresh water in the Philippines conducive to watersports, PHBYC and TLYC’s initiatives to hold this regatta is a great start to reviving sports tourism on Taal Lake.”

More than 20 sailors from all over the Philippines are expected to arrive in Batangas on the last weekend of March to compete in the2020 Oz Goose Nationals. Peter Capotosto of TLYC commented that: 90% of TLYC income is derived from Volcano tours and it is great that corporate sponsors like, Broadwater Marine, Pioneer Adhesives and Imperial Homes chipped in to make sure that this regatta will be a success, all we need to hope for is better weather” .
