Houston Rodeo Tickets

One of the greatest shows that I wanted to watch live in the arena is the Rodeo in Texas. Everyday, the Houston Rodeo events are followed by concerts featuring artists in country, rock, hip hop and Latin music. Favorite performers might be on stage too such as Miley Cyrus, Hanah Montana, the Jonas Brothers, Bon Jovi, Maroon 5 and so many more. Visit the Website now and purchase your ticket to get he best seat available. I never been able to watch the rodeo as a live audience yet but, I am so eager to experience it. I wanted to see the competitive events such as roping where cowboys had to capture the calf using the rope in a loop. On TV, I watch the saddle bronc and bull riding rodeo events and I find it very interesting. This is the reason why rodeo is very unique. It would be different watching it live plus see the concert of my favorite performers afterwards.

Charcoal Paint

I took this souvenir portrait from my sister-in-laws' wall display. This is a charcoal portrait of Ron when he was 19 years old. I plan to have a charcoal portrait too but, I still have to find time to get a nice still picture. It is so amazing when we can preserve our image using charcoal painting. I know one artist back home, she is a teacher and she is really gifted. I will contact her when I return to the Philippines.

Mardi Gras Beads

These are just few of the beads that we catch during the Elks Mardi Gras Parade in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. I brought with me my digital camera and of course, was planning to send pictures to Facebook. The weather was below freezing and even if I wore three jackets, I was still freezing. I can not hold properly the digital camera because I was freezing. Despite of that scenario, I took some good photos and be posting it here soon.

Getting a Domain

My blog is in PR 3 right now and I am still in the process of whether to buy a domain or not. If I decided to get a domain in this blog, I might lose my PR in two months. Just like what happen to my two other blogs. But, I will have more opportunities if I have my domain. I didn't make up my decision yet but, I will really push on getting one soon. I got three blogs and this is my baby blog that I planned to get a domain. I was just reading about a web site hosting that provides a good customer support whenever they are needed. That is exactly what I need this year. Last year, I have a problem with my two blogs and I can't contact the customer representative. I ended up solving the problem myself with the help of my brother. If I decide to get my domain in this blog, I will make sure that the company has a support team that I can call and talk the problem right away. Technical problems are real mess which can be encountered daily. But, with the help of a support team, I can relax that anything will be fine.

Elks Mardi Gras Parade in Ocean Springs

January 30 is the most anticipated Mardi Gras Parade here in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. The Elks Mardi Gras Parade marked as the first in this area and there will be more Mardi Gras Parade that will follow after. Expect that I will be posting new pictures tomorrow.

This was taken a year ago specifically, February 7. It was my first experience so; I only grab few beads and my scream was not showy, lol. The technique is that, you will cheer so loud that would attract those people on the float and they will give you more beads. If you are lucky, they will give you the most cherish beads they have.

So Ironic

Sometimes, it is so ironic to comprehend how bad the problem of the world hunger if your pantry looks like the pictures below.

I know someone who had a pantry measuring 25 sq meters and they were only three in the household. Their caretaker said that some of the foods inside the pantry were already expired. To avoid that, why not take a day off and get rid of those canned goods which you do not need. Then, make a habit of checking every three months and the old stocks but not expired, give it away. Others need it more than you do.

I know we work so hard to buy the foods that we want. But, let us make a step of change in our lives. Let us start buying the things that we NEED instead. Let us learn to share too. Try taking a bag of stocks from your pantry that you do not need and drive in the city. I am sure you will see a homeless person on the street begging for pennies. Just give it to him and go. Do not communicate with him. Just hand the bag, smile and go. For that hungry person, you are an answered prayer and you are an angel.

If you do this, you will feel the change in you. Imagine if thousand do the same act of goodness to others everyday? Thousands will not get hungry in a day and it will drive them to have a positive outlook of life.

Remember to learn to share your blessings to others.

Show kindness even to strangers! The time is now!

National Finals Rodeo Tickets

I was looking for the NFR Las Vegas 2010 ticket prices which will be happening in December 2010. It is really a wise idea to get the ticket ahead of time or end up not getting a good seat at all. In events like the National Finals Rodeo, tickets are sold out fast for months before the scheduled sports event. If there are tickets available at the nearest date, the price is expected sky high. In the link provided here, you can get your ticket ranging from $70 to $561. This is a reasonable price that you can ever get so; check it out today.

I really wanted to watch this sport because it is considered as the "Super Bowl of Rodeos". On TV, I watch the bull riding show and I was curious what it is like to see it live in the rodeo arena. Bull Riding is one of the Professional Rodeo's seven events namely: saddle bronc riding, bareback riding, calf roping, team roping, steer wrestling and barrel racing. The National Finals Rodeo is very interesting to see because it is absolutely different. The event is showcasing the skills and speed of the participant cowboys and that is interesting for me.
