==========
NEW YORK (CNN) -- Actor Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday of a possible drug overdose in a Lower Manhattan apartment, the New York Police Department said.
The Academy Award-nominated actor was 28.
Ledger was found naked and unresponsive, facedown on the floor at the foot of his bed by a housekeeper trying to wake him for an appointment with a masseuse, said police spokesman Paul Browne.
"Pills were found in the vicinity of the bed," he told CNN.
"This is being looked at as a possible overdose, but that is not confirmed yet."
Browne later told reporters some prescription medications were found in the room, including sleeping pills.
But he stressed police have made no determination of the cause of Ledger's death -- that would be done by the medical examiner.
He said the pills were not "scattered about."
No note was found and there was no indication of foul play, Browne said. Ledger was found at about 3 p.m., and was pronounced dead at the scene by emergency personnel about 3:30 p.m. (read more here)=============

wannabe charlie's angel
saw a mechanical bull at metrowalk and you shouldn't dare me to try and ride one, i'm one freakin' gal who doesnt back out from a dare! so i tried it besides i thought it looks easy =)
so here i am getting ready to tame the red bull. you only have to pay 45pesos to ride one and to earn a stuff toy you have to last 80 seconds on top of the bull, holding the rein with just one hand and the other hand up in the air. sounds easy eh?
just getting on top of the bull is hard already, the bull is sooo slippery and fat! and i dont even look cute here, struggling to stay on top... how the heck cameron diaz able to hang on to the bull and made it look so easy i dunno? its so freakin hard not to slip!
well i lasted for 14 seconds only!!!! trying so hard here but still fell. i suggest you try this peeps, it's cool and i bet you wouldnt last 20seconds on top of the bull!
TIP: wear shorts if you're going to try this, it'll be less slippery. am planning to do this again but i'll wear short shorts next time, and i'll have that stuff toy! LOL (lakas ng fighting spirit ko!)

going on 30
cheers! i cant believe were 30 now! still feels like we just graduated. yeah notice i am wearing a watch? well its a hello kitty watch! a gift from my bestfriend and che (hahaha kelangan daw nilang paghatian para makabili ng gift sa akin LOL) luv luv it, tnx bespren and che mwah love you both... haller lisa am still waiting for my bag ;)
talked where we're goin after dinner, metrowalk, tiendisitas, and antipolo are the choices. opted to drive to antipolo but none of us know how to get there and che's "special friend" advised us to follow the G Liner bus... so we followed the first G Liner bus that we saw, as in tutok! we stip whenever the bus pick up a passenger! hahahaha but then somewhere in ortigas we got stuck in traffic so we decided to just go back and proceed to metrowalk
had few bottles of beer and a nightcap over coffee, too bad after the bull ride bespren had to leave! marriage really ruins the fun! whatever! told her get a divorce already so she doesnt have to leave us LOL
sorry if i cant blog hop right now, i've been busy trying to earn money to buy Mark!
road trip - part 3
i guess you've already surmised that we got lost again looking for this lake! We're already in San Pablo but would you believe that we somehow managed to get lost and find ourselves on the way to Quezon province! i dont know how we got lost but after lots of u-turns and questions we were able to find our way back to san pablo and reach sampaloc lake. a bonus the place is observing its fiesta celebration, too bad we didnt see marching bands... prolly because its raining.
love love these banderitas
after navigating for hours, we finally get to our destination... sorry it doesnt look picturesque and aside from the fact that it is raining ... it's also starting to get dark... the dusk is fast approaching
but that didnt stop me to have my photo taken (adik eh!) it's raining but i have my shades, LOL i really thought it was going to be sunny, feeling summer na ko!
another look at the lake... i think i've seen this lake before when we hike up in a mountain somewhere in laguna as well, i have to check that with mami dorcs and will show you better photos of the lake taken from the mountain top
so after cruisin around the place and got nothing to do, we decided to head back home since its already late... yeah we got lost again! we're just lucky that we always find our way back! we have like traveled almost 200km and half of that was spent tracing our way back finding the right track! so please do not ask me for direction or to be your navigator in this viaje del sol tour, oh i'd love to assist you that is if you're prepared to get lost and make sure you have a full tank, ok?
stopped here at luz garden (lisa wanted to buy some potted plants and it feels like we have a garden at the back of the car when we left the place), the owner aling luz is very accomodating , she said it was just her hobby before which became a business and i couldnt believe it when she said sh'e already 64! anyways her shop is located at bay, laguna
finally we find ourselves at SLEX and the traffic is starting to get crazy when we saw this beautiful place and decided to have coffee and stretch our limbs - sorry cant remember the name of the place but its so hard to miss, promise the place is sob big and well lit up.
i guess the laguna government is partly to be blamed why we got lost countless of times! well i admit my sense of direction or lack of it so pathetic but really it would help travelers if they put out signs in every major crossing. like this way to this so and so place, like what we have here in manila.
i'm really thankful to the people of laguna for being so nice! after spending 14 hours on the road i was so tired and dead to the world when i got home i immediately slept.
lessons learned? it doesn't hurt to ask for directions really especially when you're lost! and 2. learn how to read a map! having a map cant help you find what you're looking for if you dont know how to read one!
i invite you to take the journey, go out, hit the road and follow the sun

entrance
main lobby
reception, old school fon o. i really like the place they have lots of antique carved wood figurines
ok so we ordered their best seller, carabao salpicao... first time to eat carabao meat and it is delicious and tender, you should try it if you're going to visit kusina salud
also tried their seafood karekare
food trip... also included in their specialty is fiddlehead fern (pako) salad! of course we didnt ordered that one! :) i also loved their iced tea pandan flavored.
yosi sa silong, busog na
another dining table for a big group, it just seem that we're the only patron in the photos but i'm telling yah, they do have lots of customers... this table was just cleared when i took the photo
smoking area, not allowed to smoke inside the house itself
the smiling buddha
staircase, customers not allowed to go upstairs, didnt bother to ask why so just ask them yourself when you get there ok and get back to me ;)
big window, i really love these kind of old school windows

about to leave kusina salud fully energized... me singing in the rain - under my umbrella ella ella
