Fifteen Thousand sky lanterns (15,000) will then be lit and delivered to the sky in UP Miagao this coming May 24, 2013 for the Inaugural Light of Peace Event. Let us join hands, offer our prayers and volunteer to light the lanterns for world peace.

“And at last I see the light
And it’s like the fog has lifted
And at last I see the light
And it’s like the sky is new
And it’s warm and real and bright
And the world has somehow shifted
All at once everything looks different
Now that I see you”

Since I arrived at Plaza Athenee Bangkok around 1:15 in the morning, I wasn’t able to sleep well as my mind was on a hyper mode. I was just tossing and turning until the alarm went off at 5:30AM. I got out of bed to prepare for the day’s adventure, and then woke my sister since she’ll be having training at 8AM, only to be told that it was only 4:30 in the morning. Arghh! I was so excited that I forgot to set my watch in local time, which is an hour behind Philippine time. So, instead of going back to bed to toss and turn, I went online instead to check CS for any happenings in the area.
