Welcome to the club, majca. My fiance is also an Ilocano, from Vigan, and he lives in Riverside County, Calif., just like you. He goes to the Palm Springs area every now and then for the golf and for the poker at the casinos!

Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después
Quiero tenerte muy cerca
Mirarme en tus ojos
Verte junto a mi
Piensa que tal ves mañana
Yo ya estaré lejos
Muy lejos de ti
Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después
Que tengo miedo a perderte
Perderte después
¡Qué una canción tan bonita, comadre!
Aquí está nuestra tema:

I pity Sisa so much with all the misfortunes that befell her family, especially the tragic disappearance of her sons, Crispin and Basilio. And the maltreatment handed to her by the guardia civil was the final straw that brought her to lunacy. I cry for Sisa.
I'd cry for Sisa too. If you are in here shoes, can you just imagine the torment and agony of losing your sons. It may drive you to insanity too.

English translation, please!
Here's a translation. Pardon me for any errors as I am not a Tagalog.
God and Wealth
At times of crisis or economic hardship brought in by difficult times, two noticeable events appear in the horizon. Now, it seems that more people go to church and, also, more resort to gambling. In America, churches have their hands full in helping all those in need as lots of people depend on the clergy for emotional support as a result of the crisis. It is the same as what is happening in our country as more parishioners go to mass now. Before, churches were just more than half full and now it’s almost standing room only. Even other church activities, such as bible study and prayer meetings, have plenty of participants.
The same goes with the line at the lottery outlet. According to some people I have talked to, the lotto line fills up very much faster than before. Before, the lotto drawings with little jackpots were not too enticing, but, now all bets are in all drawings, big or small. Ever since the super lotto jackpot reached P300M and two people won, there are now many who play the daily games. Philippine culture is very visible here. Everybody seeks God during hard times.
We are a Christian country and it is natural for us to seek support from our Maker to enrich our well beings and also our minds. On the flip side, there is that Filipino habit to look for the easiest and fastest way to earn a buck. And that includes going to a casino to gamble away or invest in something that promises fast and high returns. That is why many of our countrymen have been victimized by these scams, some of which are currently being investigated by the Senate.
God and wealth! If my memory serves me right, during my school days, these two objects do not go side by side. In holy writings, you can’t see them together; what’s for God was different from what’s for Pilate, as they say. But in our culture, we seek closeness to God so we can attain wealth. But after church, we immediately buy a lotto ticket or go to the casino, thinking deep in our hearts that God might grant our wish as we prayed for it. God knows what’s inside our hearts. We have not realized that He has already captured our imagination. However, it is very good that many become closer to Him during these times. But it is better if we get closer every time and not just during periods of hardship. If our minds and intentions are clear, things will be rosy, even without joining the lotto line or dropping by the casino.

Just keep your fingers crossed, day. All will be well. I am waiting for the sputum test result myself and I'll get it in 2 weeks. Comusta diha sa Panabo?

How I wish I had a tip for you, but I don't. Actually, I should have seen that advice about drinking milk before the x-ray so I could probably have avoided the sputum test. Now I have to wait for 2 more weeks for the sputum test result.

Sounds like a good idea to me, Roy.

Below is the original version of the Philippine National Anthem in Spanish.
Tierra adorada, hija del sol de Oriente,
Su fuego ardiente en ti latiendo esta.
¡Patria de amores!
Los invasores
No te hallaran jamás.
En tu azul cielo, en tus auras,
En tus montes y en tu mar
Esplende y late el poema
De tu amada libertad.
Tu pabellón, que en las lides
La victoria ilumino,
No vera nunca apagados
Sus estrellas y su sol.
Tierra de dichas, del sol y de amores,
En tu regazo dulce es vivir.
Es una gloria para tus hijos,
Cuando te ofenden, por ti morir
Comadre, gracias por el himno nacional en español. ¿Has cambiado tu apodo aquí en VJ?
¿Como estan chamacas? Me sorprenden que escriben en la lengua de Cervantes con fluidez. Vamos a ver, donde lo aprendieron?
Estoy bien, José. Aprendi español en la escuela y de mi papá tambien.

I wonder what happened to Cirspin.

Ayna apo, adu gayam ti kailocannuak ditoy!!!
I was born and raised in Urdaneta City of Pangasinan, our dialect was ilocano coz' we're from eastern Pangasinan, but i can speak and understand a little Pangasinense, too.
Mabuhay!
Hi! I noticed from your profile that you might be from the San Bernardino/Riverside area of Southern California. My fiance, who too is an Ilocano, lives in Corona and I wonder if Corona is close to where you are. I expect to join him as soon as possible and we hope to meet you someday there in the Inland Empire.

I want to write something else... I am SHERIFF ULING, but I'm just stoping through just to check in...
Mr. Sheriff, the posse needs you!

Good morning, my friends, good evening to those of you in America. It's Saturday morning here in Davao, time to just take it easy, no need to toil at work; in other words, it's a day where you can do what your heart pleases and nobody will fault you for anything that goes awry.
The weather is okay, a little on the humid side but bearable as always. It's probably 25C outside and might reach 30C today. The fishermen who spent most of the night at sea are now back ashore and the bariles (tuna fish) should now be aplenty at the public market. I will be on my way to the market to get a piece of the catch as we plan to lunch on kinilaw na bariles. I will also get me some fruits and veggies, such as alagbati, cucumbers and Cavendish bananas.
Have a good day, everybody!

Congratulations!
Our Form I-797 states, among other things, "We have sent the original visa petition to the Department of State National Visa Center ......... NVC will then send the petition to the U.S. Embassy or Consulate where your fiance (e) will be interviewed ......."

¡Felicidades!

so did u divorce her?
the op is now mr bill, the name of the op is now his wife's account, and no he didn't. maybe related to her knowing how to shoot a gun, i dunno.
Cuteness helps a lot too! But, I think I will take her shooting this summer.
Not too cute on the range, otherwise she'll be a weapon of mass distraction!

a little about my wife's workplace when she was in Philippines.
http://www.usvirtualconsulatedavao.org.ph/...features01.html
Yazi worked with Davao 911? Can you ask her if she knew Melchor Quitain, former Davao City Administrator and currently Davao City Legal Officer. Melchor is my brother in law, he's married to my older sister.
she knows who he is, maybe met once or twice. the City Administrator she knows and who I met is Wendell Avisado.
Thank you, Roy & Yazi.

That's okay Neenuh. I was just telling Manong AJ that we (my younger siblings, cousins and classmates) used to climb up and down the church belfry when we were kids, you know, when you live in a small town where public transportation wasn't available all the time and you have to walk a mile or two going to school, which I hated back then. Everyday we packed our lunch with us going to school and after lunchtime, we liked climbing that belfry up and down and the parish priest wasn't pleased at all. So we had to sneak going up when he wasn't looking. And then when we go to the Sunday mass with my folks, the parish priest would tell them what we've been doing.
Ah, yes, to relive those days!
LOL @ the parish priest
Señorita Tessa and Rocky_nBullwinkle, the best time to go to Baguio would be early to mid February. Temperature goes down to about 9°C (that's around 48°F). Right now I heard its about 60°F
It gets hot during the summer (April/May), and the traffic gets really bad.Thanks for the tip on the Baguio weather, neenuh. When my fiance fetches me after I get my visa, we plan to stop in Baguio after visiting his relatives in Ilocos. Hopefully, in early May.

...... of lightning, followed by rolling thunder, caused Doray to start up and exclaim, as she crossed herself: "Jesús, María, y José! I’m going to leave you, I’m going to burn some sacred palm and light candles of penitence."
For those of you who may not know, "Jesús, María y José" is the origin of the Filipino expression "sus mar yosep".

Albeit I am not an expert, I recommend the following:
1. Section 4.5 be deleted.
2. Sections 4.6 & 4.7 be replaced with this http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwfk1en.pdf
3. Section 5.1 be amended to reflect the new courier.

I wish I can help, but sorry, I can not because I am no expert.

Have fun in Seattle and I wish you well, Chinook & Tahoma.

Here are more pictures from my hometown, Baguio City:The City
Twilight at Burnham Park
Mines View Park
Wright Park
Wow! Baguio must be a very pretty town. Nice weather, I presume, as the third picture shows people in sweaters and jackets. I have never been to Baguio but I think I'll be there someday somehow.
