Celebration of Life & Friendship from Aileen Guirnela on Vimeo.

It was late afternoon when we arrived at the pier under Saphan Thaksin skytrain station. Just in time to witness a cloudy sunset yet too precious not to be missed with its cool shades of pink and orangey blend. I always get excited every boat trip as it reminds me of my childhood days where I used to spend my summer vacations.

There were a bunch of us who made things happen. God was so good to bless us with clear skies even though the forecast shows Bangkok will experience rain showers that very night. It kicked off with a dinner cruise along Chao Phraya river then we retreated to a posh bar downtown with Filipino live band playing a series of dance, jazz, pop and blues.

It was fun! Foods, music, birthday celebrations in the company of old and new friends.

Enjoy this unpolished slideshow which I intend to give as a surprise to M and T. Just one tip though, wait till it finishes to buffer by pressing pause before you play the whole vid. It may not be a good experience to watch it in pieces.

Live High!

I met Kai during one of our house visits.  Upon recognizing the thing I was carrying, he never left my side and he kept on saying, “picture me, picture me.” So I tried my best to get a steady shot of him.  He is a very hyperactive toddler in a cute sense.  Good thing he listens when I say freeze =).

I’m afraid to set foot on the grass knowing it rained hard last night.  However I can’t resist basking out with Mr. Sun.  I knew it is a perfect photo opp for me.  Today’s Sunday and it’s a great blessing to feel so free at the moment.

A portrait of my hand holding my constant companion Nikky.  What makes my hand special among my body parts is that it helps me express myself with ease. It is hard to imagine without it and I’m thankful for the countless blessings it had brought me and other people hopefully.
