Fil-Am Kids at Dancing with the Stars....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is an email I got from a friend just now. I don't really get to watch Dancing with the Stars so I didn't even know about these 2 amazing Filipino-American kids.

Anyway, they will be in DWTS tomorrow - Wednesday, May 13, 2008. They are one of the 3 pairs competing and the result will be based solely on VIEWERS Votes.

Below is the email about this.

The Philippine Consulate General is extending this request for support/votes for Jaryd and Cara in the next Dancing with the Stars episode on May 13th! Thank you.

Honorable Consul General Cecilia Rebong,

I would like to inform you of the recent accomplishments of a young Fil-Am Ballroom couple, Jaryd Tyler Farcon and Cara Abaya-Campos... I would also like to ask for your support as they proudly represent the Philippines as a rising amateur ballroom couple.

Jaryd, who is 10 years old, is the son of Drs. Cayetano & Armie Farcon of Princeton , NJ .

Cara is 8 years old and is the daughter of Walden & Irene Campos of Nutley , NJ .

They have been dancing together competitively for the past 14 months under the direction and coaching of Spencer Nyemchek and have already captured the 2007 United States National Title in International Latin in the Preteen Age division.

Jaryd & Cara have been featured twice on the Maury Show and won the Maury’s Most Talented Kids contest and also appeared on NBC’s TODAY show last December 2007. Their most recent appearance was on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars on April 15, 2008, where they captured the 10 year old and under category and are scheduled to dance next week on May 13, 2008 in the Finals of the Junior segment of Dancing with the Stars. They are 1 of 3 couples competing for the Championship Title. Next weeks show results are based solely on viewer votes.

This dynamic pair has been very busy making public appearances and showcasing at various fundraising events and cultural gatherings. They are scheduled to perform at the Phil-US Expo ‘08 on May 17-18 and at the Philippine Independence Day Cultural Show in NYC on June 1.

I would like to thank you in advance for all your support!

Sincerely,

Cayetano Farcon, D.M.D
Armie Farcon, D.M.D.

L-O-S-T. I guess that about sums up how I'm feeling right now...with blogging anyway. I don't even know how to start this post. 😕 It's been almost 2 years since I last posted. It's not that I have nothing to write about. I have plenty but I seem to have lost interest in blogging. I thought  at first that it was just a phase. I thought it would only last for a few days but days turned into weeks then months then years and I still haven't blogged. Nothing sparked my interest to blog so I just didn't. Not even paid posts lured me back. I even considered deleting it altogether. I felt like I'm wasting my money paying for the domain name. But I can't do it so I just keep on paying. I can't seem to let go of the domain 'Pinay Wahm' because I got it when not many Moms were able to make a living or earn in the comforts of home. I also have a lot of personal posts here that when I want to get details about something that happened in my life I can

When we visited my family in 2012 we didn't actually spend as much time as I would have liked with most of them. That's because we planned a road trip which took most of our time. Since we were on the road majority of the stay, we weren't able to spend as much time in my childhood home. During our recent trip, that's exactly what we did. We spent a lot of time in my childhood home. We actually stayed home too much that we got bored after a while. But it was somehow an 'eye opener' for me as well as my significant other. On his part, he was finally able to experience 'real summer' back there. Both trips happened in April. But since we were in an air-conditioned car most of the time during our 2012 trip, we didn't really feel how hot it was. This time around, the air-con was only in our room. As soon as we stepped outside, it's hot. As a result, the AC in our room stayed on the whole day because it served as a reprieve from the heat. Every time

Finally finished the project I started a couple of months ago...at least. Now I'm a happy [and a bit sore] camper. I finished putting the mulch this morning mainly because I don't want to give the weeds another chance to invade the flower beds again...at least for a few months anyway. I think I had to pull out weeds twice before to prepare them for the mulch. I thought hubby would have the chance to put it down but his work just wouldn't let him so I decided to do it myself a few weeks ago. So why did it take me weeks to finish 2 and a half flower beds? I was just taking my time I guess. There was no hurry so I took my time. Now that I'm done with that 'project' I'm off to continue another one that I started about 2 weeks ago...decluttering my home office. The weather here is as unpredictable as...the weather? Last week it was raining almost everyday as predicted by the meteorologists around here. The time the rain would fall was the unpredictable part tho
