Hi everyone! Happy New Year!
We Filipinas have achieved a lot the past year. A lot of Filipinas have started blogging and we are damn proud of it. 2007 also gave birth to the FilipinaImages project, this project aims to re-launch how people around the world look at Filipinas, we Filipinas are not about mail-order brides or online-porn stuff. We Filipinas are powerful women, we are loving mothers, we are sexy and smart, nature-loving, adventurous… the list of wonderful attributes is never-ending.
Also this year, Dine’s blog won 2nd place in the Influential Emerging Blog of 2007

A Testimonial about the Power of Prayer and God’s Love – Part 1
How I prayed for my husband
I remember how as a young girl, I would wish on a star that someday I may meet the man of my dreams, my prince charming. And of all the good characteristics that I could wish my prince to have, only 2 things mattered; that he is handsome and kind-hearted.
