Race for the Orphans
by Cheryl Villareal on Jan 23rd, 2012
As a teacher, I know how important education is for the young children. Though several only think it is the latter years that are important, studies have shown that it is the early years of education that mold the child to the person he or she will grow up to be. For most of you reading this post, you have been blessed with a strong foundation and good education that will help get you through the rest of your lives. For several others however,...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

Operation Smiles Presents “THE 500 SMILE RUN”
by Cheryl Villareal on Sep 25th, 2011
"When you create smiles, you change lives, and you heal humanity." This is what Operation Smile believes, and I have to strongly agree with them too. - A month ago, I wrote a blog about MILES FOR SMILES. This run was for the benefit of children with cleft problems. The run was successfully held last week and though I registered to run, I unfortunately DID NOT WAKE UP! I was really sad and down but just thought to myself, at least my registr...Read More » Tags Share Comments (2 )

Inauguration of PCF Technical College – The first CONTAINER-VAN school in the world!
by Cheryl Villareal on Sep 13th, 2011
Around 2 weeks ago, I was invited to visit a school located in what used to be the famous SMOKEY MOUNTAINS of Tondo. The term does not refer to a beautiful landscape as that depicted in other countries, instead, the name was given because of the smoking mountains of garbage found in the area. This place has recently been rehabilitated and is hopefully on its way to becoming a more livable place for people. - I was hesitant at first, given i...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

Miles for Smiles: Run for Cleft Care 2011
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 24th, 2011
Life is beautiful. Amidst all the stress or problems that come by, I can still smile and say that life is beautiful. For most of us, it takes the least amount of effort to turn our frowns upside down and show off our beautiful smiles. But for others, it takes a team of doctors and a lot of caring people to help give them the smile they deserve. Before I decided to read more about it, I thought that having a cleft lip was just a physi...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

Run and Help – For the Cancer Warriors Foundation
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 22nd, 2011
Cancer... what exactly is it? We hear the term several times, we know it is a deadly and life-threatening sickness and we might even know a person or two with the sickness, but do we really understand it? - What causes cancer? "Cancer is ultimately the result of cells that uncontrollably grow and do not die. Normal cells in the body follow an orderly path of growth, division, and death. Programmed cell death is called apoptosis, and when...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

ANCOP Global Walk: Changing the World ONE Child at a Time!
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 7th, 2011
Before anything else, what exactly is ANCOP? The acronym actually stands for "Answering the Cry of the Poor". Just that itself already caught my attention. The number of homeless people and poverty stricken areas in our country is not going down, in fact, the number just keeps rising every year. Be the change you want to see. We have NO RIGHT to keep complaining over our country's situation if we aren't doing our part in helping out. - To f...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

My 10KM Training Run with the Eat.Pray.Run Team
by Cheryl Villareal on May 20th, 2011
After 3 years of joining fun runs and running in the 5km category for more than 20 times, and only twice running in the 10km category, I finally decided it was time to move forward! I've had so much fun joining fun runs and my goal progressed from just wanting to finish a race to beating my personal record of 30min for 5km. For the past 3 years, I've only had time to run during Sunday fun runs and had no training whatsoever. This summer, I wanted...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

Make Dreams Come True with “Eat, Pray, Run”
by Cheryl Villareal on Apr 19th, 2011
While browsing my Facebook page one day, I noticed a photo wherein one of my friends was tagged. It was a photo of a little stick man drawn in the simplest form possible in black and white but with eyes shaped like a heart and in the color red. I wondered what it was and so I followed the link, that's when I came across the three words, "Eat, Pray, Run" - Strong words. I started analyzing the way I go by my everyday stuff. Eat (How coul...Read More » Tags Share Comments (4 )
