The Global Green Challenge is one of the world's most renowned when it comes to showcasing and recognizing the many different types of hybrid cars that features alternative energy sources, fuel efficient and most especially environment friendly. This transcontinental challenge aims to promote social awareness as well for the public to get educated about the many different ways to prevent global warming and climate change, which are major threats to the earth nowadays.

On the recent Global Green Challenge held in Australia which started from Darwin up to Adelaide, Hyundai's newest Santa Fe R Diesel was declared as the winner. Hyundai's newest addition to the collection of green cars consumed only an unbelievable 160.45 liters of diesel during the 3,147 kilometer challenge. Also, it only emits 137.67 grams of Carbon Dioxide per kilometer which is unbelievably low thus making it eco-friendly.

Hyundai's captivating ride was driven by the former Aussie rally star Ed Ordynski and motoring analyst John Cadogan during the competition. The uploaded videos are on Hyundai's YouTube channel and they come in seven episodes. If you've missed the event, you may watch the videos on YouTube so you get to experience yourself how amazing Hyundai's Santa Fe R Diesel car is.

I am craving for a photoshoot and I want to go to places like the Mt. Pinatubo crater or the beautiful island of Coron in Palawan. Suddenly, I felt the need to study Photography more and take the hobby on to the next level.

As you all know, I have always been fascinated with taking photos of anything and everything. One of the gadgets that I can't live without, next to my cellphone and laptop, is my camera. Call it addiction, but I really am drooling over to press that shutter button whenever I see a prospect subject.

One of my friends is actually getting into the Photography addiction as well and is thinking of buying his own DSLR, soon. I am excited for him in getting his new DSLR. At least we can do photo shoots together while hanging out or while on a trip.

I guess the Photography hobby is starting to invade the many. How about you, are you shielded enough for you not to be hit by this technological phenomenon?

Here are some of my photos from last year's Hot Air Balloon Fiesta (February 15, 2009):

I was busy the whole day today because I had to finish a project that was assigned to me two weeks ago. Can you believe that? I managed to go out on a trip knowing I still have a pending project waiting on my table! That sucks, right? (Laughs.)

Actually, it was just an easy design plan and I knew I can finish it just in time before the deadline that's why I was relaxed and I held on to my horses that long. Right after I was done, I went to the nearest mall and bought ink cartridge for my printer because I had to send them right away to my boss for approval. Guess what? The store has special promotion so I even got a Discount Printer Ink.

Because I got a discount, I bought a few more ink cartridges to take advantage of the special offer. So that's about it, I already sent my finished project right into the office of my boss a few hours ago and headed on to the nearest Starbucks afterwards for a sip of my favorite caramel macchiato. I guess today is just my lucky day that is why I am attracting all the positive vibes.
