make it the best nature wonder of the world


please vote for palawan's puerto princesa subterranean river and make it number 1
From new7wonder.com
PHILIPPINESThe Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park is located about 50 km north of the city of Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines. It features a limestone karst mountain landscape with an 8.2 km. navigable underground river. A distinguishing feature of the river is that it winds through a cave before flowing directly into the South China Sea. It includes major formations of stalactites and stalagmites, and several large chambers. The lower portion of the river is subject to tidal influences. The underground river is reputed to be the world's longest. At the mouth of the cave, a clear lagoon is framed by ancient trees growing right to the water's edge. Monkeys, large monitor lizards, and squirrels find their niche on the beach near the cave.

Kapeng Barack!!!


finally, obama is the new president of the most powerful, USA (i dont really like to think it that way but its true USA is powerful!). i admired and inspired by his speech and story. i just really hope that he will achieve what people not only americans but the whole world is expecting from him. Its too sad because he inherit the problems of USA from the past president(s). I watched his inaugural last tuesday (abs-cbn) here in the Philipines. Yes napuyat ako! Tinapos ko ung speech nya! Andami kong natutunan like: 20 years of American history only involve two names as president Bush (the father), Clinton, Bush (the son).Kaya pala nalilito ako kc alam ko naging president na si Bush pero sya ulit! for the first time i saw how does reagan, carter looks like. Ive learned a lot of american trivias from the clothes of the wore by the former First Ladies to the blackberry phone of Obama... I feel exciting that i want to take a peek in the white house to see Maila and Sasha jumpin around the wings of the house!!! kids in the whitehouse! im not really up to what dress or who will the first family wear. im more interested on how and what will he do, Obama! Im praying for him coz he is facing big challenges that somehow for sure will affect the Philippines!!!
