Sceneries in Washington State, USA

Driving on top of 520 bridge, heading home...

520 bridge, view of Washington Lake, traffic was not bad at all...

520 bridge, Microsoft Owner Bill Gates - his mansion is in that side...

Interstate 405 heading North, see! that is why they called Washington the Evergreen State, traffic was not bad...

Interstate 405 heading North, I am getting closer to take the exit 20B in Kirkland...

It's getting closer to where the new construction of bridge is...

Usually this area here traffic are moving so slow, it's very seldom for me to drive like this...

That exit there is going to 85th St. to Redmond...

520 bridge, morning driving heading to work, overlooking the University of Washington District...

Sometimes cars here are not moving because of the accident...

I usually leave around 6:45 a.m. 'coz I need to avoid the I-405 heavy traffic...

This washington lake is huge, it's fun especially summer...

520 Bridge, foggy morning... driving to Seattle...you can bearly see the lake!

MKA Office - Seattle, Washington

The 605 feet (184 meter) Space Needle was designed by Edward E. Carlson for the 1962 World's Fair in Seattle. The futuristic structure has become a symbol for the city, and is home to festive events such as the annual New Year's Eve fireworks display.

A dynamic new décor, vibrant uniforms, and a fresh new menu featuring a variety of Pacific Northwest entrees is helping establish SkyCity as one of Seattle’s top dining destinations.

MKA office is close to Space Needle, with the revolving restaurant on top, and one of tourists attraction in the city of Seattle!

Daisy Sanlorenzo Culanag

I am currently working in Madsen, Kneppers & Associates Inc. as Construction Estimator and CAD Drafter. I have held several positions as a cost estimator; I’ve worked in quality control and as a field engineer. I have experience from predesign to bid documents. My history includes a variety of projects and because of my diverse background I am very familiar with many aspects of design and construction fields. I bring this melding of disciplines to my estimating work. I am hard working and sincere to my responsibilities. I have worked internationally and am computer literate.

The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside still waters; He restores my soul. He leads me in right paths for His Name's sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil; For you are with me; Your rod and Your staff - they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies, You anoint my head with oil; My cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Lord, you are always my shepherd , and so I have all that I need. You give me rest in meadows of green grass, and you lead me to water where I gain new life and strength. You guide me along the way that is best for me. Even when I walk in darkness and everything around seems like death, you are there, walking with me, and the promise of your love and faithfulness helps to conquer my fear. In the sight of those who do me down, you invite me to sit at table with you. There you offer me even more than I need, and you remind me that I am significant and special. You call me to goodness and kindness
every day of my life, and your house will be my home my whole life long.

People born in the Year of the Snake are deep. They say little and possess great wisdom. They never have to worry about money; they are financially fortunate. Snake people are often quite vain, selfish, and a bit stingy. Yet they have tremendous sympathy for others and try to help those less fortunate. Snake people tend to overdo, since they have doubts about other people's judgment and prefer to rely on themselves. They are determined in whatever they do and hate to fail. Although calm on the surface, they are intense and passionate. Snake people are usually good-looking and sometimes have marital problems because they are fickle.

Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore.

I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are.

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care.

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are.

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take 'till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you.

I said I love you, and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are.

Star Spangled Banner

Oh, say can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave. O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep, Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, now conceals, now discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected now shines on the stream: 'Tis the star-spangled banner! O long may it wave, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand. Between their loved homes and the war's desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land. Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just, And this be our motto: "In God is our trust." And the star-spangled banner forever shall wave, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

"Lupang Hinirang"
Composed by Julian Felipe on June 12, 1898

Bayang magiliw, perlas ng silanganan. Alab ng puso, sa dibdib mo'y buhay. Lupang hinirang, duyan ka ng magiting. Sa manlulupig, di ka pasisiil.

Sa dagat at bundok, sa simoy at sa langit mong bughaw, may dilag ang tula at awit sa paglayang minamahal.

Ang kislap ng watawat mo'y tagumpay na nagniningning.
Ang bituin at araw niya kailan pa may di magdidilim.

Lupa ng araw, ng lualhati't pagsinta, buhay ay langit sa piling mo. Aming ligaya na pag may mang-aapi, ang mamatay ng dahil sa iyo.

Philippine Hymn
(English Version)
By Camilo Osias and A. L. Lang

Land of the morning, Child of the sun returning. With fervor burning, Thee do our souls adore.

Land dear and holy, Cradle of noble heroes, Ne'er shall invaders, Trample thy sacred shores.

Ever within thy skies and through thy clouds, And o'er thy hills and seas; Do we behold thy radiance, feel the throb of glorious liberty.

Thy banner dear to all hearts, Its sun and stars alight, Oh, never shall its shining fields, Be dimmed by tyrant's might.

Beautiful land of love, O land of light, In thine embrace 'tis rapture to lie; But it is glory ever, when thou art wronged. For us, thy sons to suffer and die.

Filipinas
(Spanish Version)
Por Jose Palma

Tierra adorada Hija de sol Oriente, Su fuego ardiente En ti latiendo esta.

Patria de amores! Del heroismo cuna, Los invadores No te hallaran jamas.

En tu azul cielo, en tus auras, En tus montes y en tu mar
Esplende y late el poema, De tu amada libertad.

Tu pabellon, que en las lides, La victoria ilumino, No vera nunca apagados, Sus estrellas y su sol.

Tierra de dichas, de sol y de amores, En tu regazo dulce es vivir; Es una gloria para tus hijos, Cuando te ofenden por ti morir.

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary; When troubles come and my heart burdened be; Then, I am still and wait here in the silence, Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains; You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas; I am strong, when I am on your shoulders; You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains; You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas; I am strong, when I am on your shoulders; You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up... To more than I can be.
