Life's a beach

Our trip to the beach yesterday really took the stress away. We had a nice time with the family and kids. Did nothing but relax, eat, sleep, and spend time in the sand and salty water. Montemar is the place to be. Life's a beach!

Diet

Last time I jogged was a week ago and I feel bad about it because I plan to join a local race in May and I really need to practice. But the heat here will probably make me more sicker because I am already sick. I found another diet pill on line and I still need to find out more about the side effects. But nothing beats the old fashion way to getting slimmer--exercise and diet all the way.

Chat via messenger

We never fail to talk to MIL in the US because she always misses the kiddo. She sometimes calls on the phone and sometime we use voice messenger when Internet is available. I suggestion her to use vonage for voip service but she's not that technical and might need a lot of vonage help. So for the meantime, we'll probably use the old way to voice chat using the messenger until she's technically ready.

Separate trips

One of the things I love to do is going to the grocery store. I love to browse and check on ingredients especially the imported ones. I'm a frustrated chef by heart and sometimes I pretend to cook like pro in the kitchen. But I do grocery trips alone because I know the hubby would not appreciate it. Just like he does. When he goes to the hardware store, he goes alone. I remembered I went with him and I got bored. All I saw was tools, diamond blades, ladders, gardening stuff and more that I don't how to use hahaha. So I guess our separate trips gives us more time to be ourselves and that's good.

Grade 1... bring it on!

She's the reason why I'm strong, even though I'm weak.
The reason why I'm breathing, working, praying, eating, sleeping...
She is our life and we thank GOD everyday for her.

Congratulations kiddo! You got the whole world ahead of it. Keep it up!

Gift for mom

It's my mom's birthday in a couple of days and I wanted to give her something special but only Gifts under $100, because I'm on a tight budget. She posted a picture on our group on facebook and she really love to get the watch. Unfortunately, it's a Php4k worth watch and I cannot afford it. So I've ask help from my sisters so we can all get it for her. I know I'm not a watch-person but through the years, I learn to love and collect them. I'm on my second watch now, and I plan to collect more myself.

Hard labor

I'm currently into watching National Geographic and Discovery channels lately. One of my favorites are Crash Test Investigation and Seconds from Disaster. And recently, I watched Gold rush on Discovery channel and I amazed how much gold bullion they get from simply digging. Well, I know it's not easy to dig but I'm just blown-out how they do it. Stuck in the mountain for several months, away from the family. Some guys been working there all their lives. Now that's what I call hard labor.

Target month: April

My called me the other day and told me about this chaise lounge chair the she saw in the local mall. She plans to purchase one for the townhouse. She plans to put it on the 3rd floor, where our play-movie area is going to be. But I told her to just canvass and check things that we need, but don't purchase yet until we get all our stuff in the new house. Because I know we already have more stuff now and getting more will just add up to what we have now. Anyway, April is our target month so hopefully everything is go smoothly.

Everybody seemed to give a buzz about this Magnum ice cream so I tried one the other day. I found myself finishing the bar in 60 seconds! *diet ruined* Anyway, I had the Belgium chocolate one and I think almond and truffles are better (I just think so coz I haven't tasted them yet). Anyway, this is a little pricey than the regular bars and I think it's good to have a little treat once in a while, right.

Moving again (will see)

I got news from my sister that we might move again, and this time no rents anymore. This will be a big help for us since we badly need to pay debts and save a lot for the kiddo's school. What I'm thinking about is the pack, move and unpacking part. I can't imagine I'll pack all our stuff again, including bags, shoes, hubby's tools like spanner wrench etc. We might not bring our other appliances which is a good thing. Let's see what will happen.

Saving up

I remembered the kiddo's bear bank the other day. I was suppose to count the kiddo's money savings inside and put it in the bank. She's saving money to buy an ipad and a car. Yup! She has high hopes and I'm proud of her. This is also another way of teaching her the importance of saving money. And since we'll get the ipad this weekend, she knows she still needs to save up for the car instead. She mentioned, she wanted a fast car hahaha. Sometimes we borrow my dad's van if we need to go somewhere and the kiddo told me it's too slow. Well, we don't really need to go fast, do we? hahaha.

Speaking of my dad's van. Will be using it again this weekend because we plan to have a family day together since it's my rest day.

I know RVs are bigger and much slower. Or do they? I don't know. But if RVs are a hit here in the country, it'll be all hell for parking slots.

I wonder where does the rv owners go for rv repairs.

Birthday coming up...

My sister told me, it's her MIL's 60th birthday on the 6th of Feb and they're going to have a party at Polo Club. I asked my sister if I can go because I really want to go to Polo Club and see the venue. And all the plus plus comes with it hahaha.. like the food, the party and the souvenirs. And based from party experiences, they give out the best souvenirs. From birthdays, wedding, and Christmas season. I wonder what they'll give out this time. Maybe lapel pins, for the kitchen or a piece of appliance. But whatever it is, the party will surely be a blast!

Birthday gift

I finally got my copy of our family picture which was taken last week. And while in the local yesterday, I went ahead and bought pictures frames. I love the kiddo's solo picture and I plan to customized her picture frame just like what I saw on the Internet--birthday picture frame ideas. I still need some materials and when I'm finished, I'm sure the kiddo will be so thrilled! Can't wait.

Happy Birthday!

Happy 6th Birthday kiddo! Mom and Dad loves you very much.

What's your ultimate guitar?

What's your ultimate guitar?

Tricky question right? But if you ask me, I would still stick to the classics. Growing up from a family tree of musicians. I learned to appreciate the quality and sound of the oldies and classics. would really like a Fender Jass Bass, P. Bass series. Original, of course. And that doesn't end there. Since I'm a bassist, it doesn't mean I like bass guitars only. My ultimate guitar would be the Gibson traditional. I'm telling you, this baby really kicks butt. Two of friends invest money to get a Gibson series and now they have two and doesn't want to let it go because for them, it's all worth it.

.... so what's yours?

Shop!

We went to the local mall this afternoon to get our family picture taken when I was surprised to see one of the home depot stall is closed.

Because Forever21 will there! Can't wait to shop!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to everybody!

Christmas gift

MIL and BIL are here! They arrived last week and now Christmas is fast approaching and I still don't have anything for them. Then I passed by the mall the other day and got an idea. I was thinking of getting BIL some funny shirts or maybe a planner for a change. Anyway, the big problem now is what to get for MIL. It seems that she can buy anything already but I know there's still something that she needs. Maybe I'll get her a watch instead if I ran out of time. Christmas is just a few days and panic button is ON.

5S

I was decided to shift to 5strings years ago until I took a break from the band. Now that I've started to play again, I'm thinking of shifting again. But I need a kick-ass gear. Someone suggested a Warwick 5-string bass guitar but I'm still not sure because I haven't experienced one yet. I need to hear the tone and the feel should be right. But by the looks of it, it's a real kick-ass gear! Let's see if I can get next year.

I always know my sisters are the most talented in the world hahaha! Because whatever comes our way--events, birthdays, weddings, etc; we always pull it off with a cool success story. So am I blurring my sisters all of a sudden? Well, I'm just proud to say that my sister M launched her site today.

Knowing her all these years, I know for sure she'll be able to publish informative and interesting topics because she is very created by heart.

To sister M.. Goodluck and post away!

Sophia the First

~ Image from Yahoo! Movies ~

My day is not complete without opening Yahoo! page on my screen and today I found out that Disney will launch a new princess--Sophia the First. The movie will be out fall of 2012 and followed by the TV series. The new movie aims audience with 2-7 age group. I know for sure my little kiddo will love this movie! Can't wait for next year.

Better next year

I had to admit it's been a tough year for us this year. We moved three times and shifted school for the kiddo three times too. Not the mention the financial struggle we had to put through and luckily we're still surviving. But of course, I don't want to be 'surviving' status all the time, so next year I plan to get a nice small house near my parents and get insurance. In 2012, it's gonna be different and I know it's for the better.

Hooked

The kiddo is hooked up with watching TV all the time. Sometimes I asked her to do something else, like color or play with her dolls. She refuses sometimes and goes back to watching again. I tried to reason her out by being bossy but I don't want to be rude to her. So I had an idea that will shift her attention--Beads. I recently bought a starter pack the other day and now she's hooked with it. I also bought glue and art paper, and now she's having fun with it. Good thing, I got her attention off the tube or else, it'll be a visit to the eye doctor. Buti nalng...

FALLEN and BLUE BLOOD

Can you believe I finished two books in a week? Yup! Just finished the second one last night and I'm sad why I did not read it before but I guess I'm thankful I had the time lately. Well honestly, our cable TV is out that's why hahaha. Anyway, both books are really a page turner. I'm looking forward on purchasing the next chapter of the series. If you want to try something new, check these books...

FALLEN by Lauren Kate
and
BLUE BLOOD by Melissa Dela Cruz

Kick ass!

Future

I'm thinking of three options I will do next year: stay at my current work, work abroad or put up a business here. Option 2 is pretty risky since I'll go far away and find a better work. If I get lucky, I'll land in a high paying job but sacrifice being away from my family. My last option would put up a business here. It's a good idea if I have the funds and resources. I heard med cart dealers are booming next year and if I could more resources, I'd probably go for it. But wherever I go and whatever I do, I believe I have a better future year ahead.

Is is really lucky today?

New YOU

My sister always gets a total make-over every New Year. She says everybody should have one because New Year means New YOU. And when I say total make-over, I mean she did curl her hair and got a new wardrobe and I'm thinking the same this coming New Year. I've have decided to do it every since I recovered from my gallbladder operation last April. I thought, Life is short, who's stopping me? GO FOR IT. So I had my hair done, got highlights and wore make-up. Wow! Not only I looked younger (ehem), it even boast my confidence. So this coming New Year, I'm thinking of keeping my highlights, curls and luxurious eye lashes! So what do you think? I found this great salon that does eyelashes and sell eyelash growth products. My sister and I will check it out next week and maybe have an appointment next month.

Why don't you try it, New Year--New YOU.

Curl it

After my gallbladder surgery last April, I said to myself that whatever I like for myself, I'd go for it and no questions asked. That's why I had my hair done (rebond) plus purple highlights. Now my highlights are fading but it's okay because it looks reddish hahaha and now I'm thinking of curls. If my sister will change her hairstyle next year, I'll probably go for curls. But for now, I'm experiments those curls using herstyler curler. And I'm already decided what hairstyle I would get at my sister's wedding next year, you guessed it-- CURLS.

Shoes!

I can't think of a person who's not crazy about shoes. Who doesn't right? Especially us ladies, we can't have enough shoes! Now that's a fact. My next shoe stop now is a red doll shoes. I kinda miss my old pair and now it's time to get a new one. Doll shoes does not last a year for me especially when I get caught during the rainy season. I might check shoes on robeez shoes and I'm hoping find a pair that will last more than a year.

Happy Sleeping

Kiddo is growing up really fast. I know because three of us can't on a king size bed already haha. The kiddo's been sleeping before us right after she was born and we just can't let her sleep on other bed. But now that she's big, we might get her those memory foam mattress and maybe buy her own bed. I know it'll take time of her to adjust but as long as she sleeps soundly every night, it'll make me and my husband happy.

Anything goes...

As the days comes closer to the year-end of 2011, I'm starting to think--what happen to me this year? I had so many plans and goals ahead of me and it seems none of them came true. Sad but true. This coming 2012--I want change. I plan to venture on a small business of my own or maybe go abroad and pursue a different career path. Anything goes, from Prosthodontist Jobs, to IT administrator, and even waitress.. anything! I just want to be far away from here... let's see.

vampire mania

I was so thrilled to see an article on Yahoo! about the up coming Breaking Dawn movie. Wow! Pictures on the site are amazing! It made me want to watch the movie now! Easy girl. I don't know why, but why is it vampires are so damn attractive? Or is it just the movies hahaha. I finished True Blood Season 4 recently and Season 5's not gonna out till next year. Sooo long! I know what I need. I need to pull myself out of facebook and watch a different movie, definitely not a vampire story-- to put mind out of this vampire mania.

Hands of hope

Sunshine at last! But I cannot celebrate yet because I just found out that another storm is heading this way. QUIEL. And according to the news, it's getting stronger and ETA would be this weekend. I hope God would spread his ways in the sky and wipe the storm away.... I hope.

BB

Okay now my mommy's using a Blackberry too! She just bought one today and she's so thrilled to have her BB registered. I'm so jealous because I've been dreaming to have one since last year but I just don't have the budget for that. Sad. Anyway, my mom gave me her Nokia C3 to replace my old phone. I mentioned old phone because I don't even know the model anymore. I also mentioned, that I have the option to sell so I could buy my BB. But nokia phones depreciates a lot lately, so selling the C3 is still not enough for the BB. Her other phone is also for sale. Motorolla V8. I know it comes with an extra motorola phone batteries. Maybe she wants to sell both so I'll have the fund for the BB. Anyway, there's still always Christmas hehehe.

PEDRING

It's just so scary to look outside! The typhoon's been here in the country for a couple of hours and yet so much damaged has been done. I hope everybody I know will be okay after the storm. Keep safe to all.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to my Husband and my sister!
All the best always.

More than enough

The last two weeks for us has been a challenge. Kiddo and I were down sick with fever and severe headaches. Good thing we went to the doctor and knew we had dengue. We spend 6 days at St. Lukes Medical Center. I was completely worried for the kiddo but good thing she responded well and now we're out of the hospital. Thank God. Now she's eating well and more active than ever. And as for me, I think I want to spend a day at the spa or maybe attend a yoga session and get a sunshineyoga.com yoga mat... or a nice massage maybe? I really need a stress reliever nowadays. But knowing that the kiddo is more than enough.

Oh my gadget!

Oh my! It seems everybody's using iphone complete with iphone case nowadays. Some choose the new Samsung smartphones and some HTC but I prefer blackberry. My sister abroad suggested us to use one and my other sister tested a unit and she said, it was great. So my mom and dad got one each and now enjoying and BBM-ing each other. I really want one but I still don't have the budget for it. Maybe I'll wait for Christmas to come or my birthday probably? Let's see. Good thing, my mom gave me her Nokia C3. Now I look a little savy hahaha.

Back to reality

It's our last day here at the hospital and the kiddo just can't wait to get out. I've been out of the office for 5 days already, so I'm also eager to go out and get back to work. I would be needing to wake up early tomorrow to pack our things and process the discharge papers that we need. I think I really need some document scanning tomorrow or maybe have or medical records photo copied for future reference. I hope I can get everything done before lunch time. Let's see. It's back to reality again....

Felicidades!

Felicidades Avuelita +Mamang.

We miss you so dearly.

Needs retouch

Emergency! I need to retouch because my highlights turn pink and not red violet anymore. I think it's normal right? or not? Anyway, I'm also not sure if it's healthy for my hair to have it colored again so I'm giving it 2 months rest before I have it colored again.

Here's why the hubby's so busy these past few weeks. WET motorworks will open tomorrow! I hope me and kiddo can join. I pray our fever will subside later tonight.

We all have our dreams and these dreams are ones who makes us stronger everyday. I for one, been dreaming of Culinary school and putting up my own restaurant and at the same time, playing music with the band. Why not right? I just need, money to enroll on Culinary school then get used restaurant equipment for sale, while I play with the band and attend to my family's need. I know it's a big dream but I'm still hopeful. How about you, what's your dream?

Happy Birthday to my lovely sister JX!

Memories

Sometimes I miss our old house where we all grew up. I miss the long driveway and the "play" area. I miss +Mamang's sampaguita that would bloom during early morning. But what I really missed the most was the garden. I don't have a green thumb but at least I tried. I remember, I would clean the whole place, like sweep fallen leaves and compile them in the composter. Then what I enjoy the most was watering the plants hahaha. I tried to keep the garden clean and green for as long as I can. But sad to say, I saw that garden fall. All dried up and brown. Childhood memories sometimes hunt me every now and then. Is this a sign that I'm growing old? Well, I'm glad I have those memories.

Dreaming of LCD

We love to watch movies here at home but when the neighbors turn on their samsung home theatre system, it's all hell loose in the neighborhood because we can also hear it all the way from our house. That's why me and hubby are day dreaming if we can get one those near LCDs. I'm planning to get one next year after all the Christmas buzz. We'll never know, we might one in the raffle this Christmas? Wow, I hope so.

Zoe's Christening

I remembered we were all excited to attend to Zoe's Christening last last month. Because it's been awhile since me and my cousins seen each other. Good thing, there are gatherings like this, that we get to meet at least once a year. And what I do liked was our gift to the little girl. Actually we got the item on the Internet because they sell good christening gifts for girls/boys. And we were glad my cousin liked it. So next family gathering... maybe first birthday next year. We'll see.

Missing Mom

It's been days since my mom went to Canada and I miss her already. I know she's enjoying every moment of her trip and she really deserve it. She leaves me messages every now and then when she has time. She told me, she got me a nice jacket for my everyday use at work. I'm excited to see it. I hope it's one of those coogi wear I saw on the Internet. Yeah, I'm more of a boyish-style rather than the girl-next-door-thing. Anyway, I heard my mom did some cherry-picking and saw raining ice. I'm beginning to adore Canada. Someday we will go there...

Canada!

My mom posted some pictures on FB from their Canada vacation and wow! the view is breath taking. It make me want to go to Canada more. It's like the perfect place to have a family, grow old and retire. My mom stayed at my uncle's place and wow (again) their is awesome. They have a nice garage, cozy living room and a kick ass outdoor fireplaces. Me and the hubby are well decided to go to Canada. If God permits us. Time will tell.

Rain rain go away

Diet Diet Diet... these are words that keeps on repeating in my mind lately. I already careful on what I eat because of my gallbladder. And I'm eating more oatmeal nowadays. I will resume my jogging routine hopefully next week, when the rain stops lingering. For the meantime, I'm thinking of getting Diet pills that work fast just to help me trim down double time. Month of August is quite busy for me and I really need to look good haha. But I guess, jogging and exercise is the only answer I'll get. So from now on I'll be singing... Rain Rain Go away, come again another day.. Little Lizzie wants to jog!

Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July!

Our car: SOLD

We just sold our car this morning. I was hesitant at first but I changed my mind and said yes when the hubby discussed all the disadvantages we might encounter in the future. Believe me, I like that car but we just don't have enough funds to have it repaired. Now we are using my dad's van for the meantime. But the hubby and I were discussing, that if get the chance to save up and have enough money, we'll surely buy a decent car with a kick ass sound set-up. Okay minus the sound set-up haha. It's the important thing that matter when it comes to cars so I know insurance from Wholesaleinsurance.net is a must. Don't worry. The hubby is charge with that because I'm in charge what car to get haha!

True Blood Season 4

I just finished watching True Blood Season 4 Episode 1 and men! the story keeps on getting better and better. There a lot of new characters plus witches will finally come out. I can't wait for the next episode. One week waiting hurts big time!

Party!

Our account just celebrated it's 7th year and we had party last Saturday. Men! What a party that is! The band really rock the house that night. But everything went blurry to blank when I got drunk. Anyway, here's one of my favorite shot that night. The Band.These guys rocks!

~ KGP Band ~

Time for a new PC

I can't deny that fact that after almost three years, this laptop slowly giving up on us. It's still running but it's not as good as before when it was still new. I suggest to the hubby that we get a new one. I still get to keep my old laptop and he gets a new one, like gateway desktops or anything that suits our budget. I heard from the a friend that desktop PCs are cheaper than laptops. Plus they upgrades are possible unlike with laptops. If we get extra budget, I know the hubby will get one for sure.

Classic

I'm not very particular when it comes to sun glasses. I have one but it's locally made here and it was given to me from my last Birthday. I said, I'm not particular when it comes to sun glasses just because frankly, I can't tell which one is real and fake. And with all the fake ones sold everywhere, it's really hard to tell especially when buying one online. When I tried to check some from the local mall, Ray Bans shades caught my attention. They are slim, slick and never go out of style. One characteristic about Ray Bans that I really love is like it's ready to rock n' roll when I see one haha! So I'll be given a chance to pick a branded sun glasses, I'll definitely get a Ray Ban Classic.

Alternative

Almost everything now has an alternative to make our lives healthier and easier. Example is the e cig or electronic cigars. A lot of people wants to quit smoking but never got the will to start because it became a habit to them. But on my case, I quit smoking with a snap of a finger and not everybody can do that. But thanks to electric cigars, most people, like the people at work are now enjoying the benefits of E Cig without the harmful effects of a real cigar.

Gifts for dad

It's only days before Father's day and I still don't have any idea what to give to the hubby. The ones that he wanted are for his motorcycle and unfortunately, I don't have any idea what those are hahaha. Then I found one on the Internet--personalized gifts for boys. The site has a lot of great ideas to give away and I already picked two. And since Father's day is in a week's time, I still have plenty of time to make up my mind. I'm excited.

Thinking about gadgets

I remembered I have a portable hard drive from a friend and that I need to get it right away because I plan to have the lappy re-installed so the OS will run as fast. But first thing to do is to copy the files off to another drive for back-up. I check ordinateurs portables, an online store and see what are the prices now on the latest gadgets. I'm surprised to see other items are still expensive. I wish I have a MAC that's reliable and will last twice (maybe more) than the ordinary laptops do. If I can save, maybe I can get one for my next birthday.

Busy week

We are moving again and it's a nicer place. Two storey, two bedrooms with fence and a parking space for the car. Way better than our current one. I still need to visit the place because I need to personally check for nearby church, school and hospital. Basic community facilities every one needs. But I have a good feedback that the hospitals there have complete medical equipment, so it's a good sign right. Anyway, more planning ahead. I know it's gonna be busy week.

Pig-out dinner!

We really had a fun fun day yesterday! We watched KUNG FU PANDA 2 with the kids and had a pig-out birthday dinner with the whole family. We should have stayed longer for coffee but the kids were already tired. Hope mom and my sister will upload the pictures soon!
