She was a daughter of Zeus, described as a beautiful woman. Her abduction by Paris triggered off a series of events which finally ended in the Trojan War.

Starting off with December 25, 2010--Christmas hasn't been this exciting and memorable, despite the stress and anxiety i felt for the December 2010 NLE. My aunts from Sacramento and London came home to celebrate this wondrous event with us. And ofcourse, i received a lot of gifts from them. However, i think the person who got the best gifts is my brother. He got a new Blackberry phone and a Wii.
Then on December 29, 2010, my cousin finally tied the knot with Ate Bebe :)
On the next day, December 30, 2010, my highschool peers and I celebrated a mini gathering. MIAKAJELMAP--despite being incomplete on that day, we still had so much fun. Plus, Gerald (Gerger lol) also came to join us!
Finally, on the eve of January 1, 2011, my family and I celebrated New Year at my aunt's house in Lantana.
