The clock ticks with time and the hourglass almost exhausted of sand. With the changing of the seasons, is the changing of people, of lifestyles, of trends, of nature and of climate. The last two, nature and climate are the most we would not want changed in so fast a pace. Studies and actual observations are alarming to the extent of changes happening now, reasons ranging from domestic, commercial and agricultural expansions to pollutions and other natural factors. Changes are inevitable and a welcome phase in everything in this world, but when the changes are from mostly bad to worse and worst, then it is nothing to be happy about.

The city begun to tire. Then it started smelling tired. Lately it simply smelled. The stink permeating the once beautiful place I proudly called home. I spent all my life in this city. Aside from the occasional travels away from home when my job calls for it, I was stuck here…willingly. I was born here. For all I cared about I am one of the luckiest people to have had the opportunity to be rooted in this tiny but beautiful and tranquil place. Until about lately.
BURNHAM LAKE FIVE YEARS BACK. The old Eucaluptus trees drip their willowy fingers into the murky waters of the lake. Reminiscent of the romance of the place, even the boats now seem to tire of their sorroundings.

The silverbacks of the urban jungle, all 500 or more of them from America trooped to Las Vegas, Nevada last July 30-31, 2010 to compete for the top titles during the 2010 USA Bodybuilding Championships. These men and women were also hoping aside from bringing home the trophies to achieve Pro status in the International Federation of Bodybuilders (IFBB). Among them is Jesse Rae Depaynos Sabater, a Baguio Boy now based in Oxnard, California.

The search for lost cultures in the North has become a passion for me, becoming an obsession of sorts, like a tingling itch that needed a good scratching. From the unexperienced, unexposed city girl evolved the unrelenting adventurer. I go trekking miles into the wild, open spaces, climbing rocks and poking crevices to get to something I thought would lead to something more interesting.

Kapangan, Benguet. Even in the remotest areas in Kapangan, once too often are seen sprouting residential structures costing a bit or a lot more than a modest home, say two-storeys (or higher) that ordinary manual laborers or employees cannot afford. Ask the locals and the answer they say lie in the peppers. Like spicing the soil with it and up the structure grows.
Baguio City's lowest temperature is 6.27oC recorded on January 18, 1961

HEART BAGUIO/BURNHAM advocates sit it out and do weekly bonfire vigils at the Pine Trees of The World Park (back of Athletic Bowl) for more than a month now. Journalists and musicians and concerned groups and individuals gather to protest the killing of the trees and the park as well as preserve the use of the same for the people of Baguio City.
