High on chocolates

Since i am hungry right now, my mind is swarming with thoughts on what  to eat next when i get the urge to stand up. My supposed dinner is in the kitchen and since im nearer to the ref, i figured i'll just munch on something while im here in front of the pc.  


Chocolates...yeah we have lots of those lying around since Christmas,so much that i havent had much choice on what to east in between meals. Its either you go to the trouble of going to the grocery to buy a lot of junk foods or you just dig into the chocolate bars.So chocolate it is. 


The kind of chocolates that i do like are the dark ones, im not particularly fond of sweet gooey ones that will make my blood sugar soar above the ceiling after a bite and im not friends with the white ones either.Ive read that the dark types are healthier compared to their sweet siblings and even contains nearly 8 times the amount of antioxidants found on strawberries. 


It is also said that a small bar of these everyday can help lower the bad cholesterols by up to 10 percent and can also lower high blood pressure. Your heart will thank you too because eating it releases substances that triggers endorphin productions, making you feel giddy and happy.It also contains serotonin which acts as an anti depressant. 


So the next time that you feel the need to indulge on sweets , try reaching for the ones often ignored. The dark ones, your body will thank you for it . 

DIY or Hire others

Bloggers all over share a passion for writing and sharing their experiences online using their blogs.Being recognized by other bloggers and  having a PR rank of 3 or 4 is even better. However it takes a lot of time in order for their site to reach these rankings.Visiting dozen of sites,leaving behind comments,link exchange or badge exchange, registering on online directories are some of what they have to go through. 


For some who have the money to spare, they hire companies like discountclick.com so they will be the one to handle the back breaking work while you concentrate on making quality articles that the readers can relate to and enjoy. 


They offer premium  link building services to boost up your sites popularity and ensures that the links made on your site is valuable and relevant to what your site is all about.The consumer have the option to choose whether it is per link, the basic package or the premium package based on their needs and budget.


Ensuring that you also be the word of mouth among the bloggers is their other promise so you can generate traffic and have an extra income on the side. So what are you waiting for, i've given you the options now you decide.

A time comes in your life -The continuation

Here is the continuation 

You also stop working so hard at putting your feelings aside,smoothing things over and ignoring your needs.you learn that feelings or entitlements are perfectly OK..and that it is your right to want things and to ask for the things that you want...and that sometimes it is necessary to make demands. You come to the realization that you deserve to be treated with love,kindness,sensitivity and respect ;and you wont settle for less ...and in the process you internalize the meaning of self respect. 


You learn that your body is really your temple , and you begin to care for it and treat it with respect.You begin eating a balanced diet ,drinking more water and taking more time to exercise.You learn that fatigue diminishes the spirit and can create doubt and fear.So you take more time to rest .and,just as food fuels the body ,laughter fuels our soul .So you take more time to laugh and to play. 


You learn that for the most part in your life you get what you believe you deserve...that much of life truly is a self-fulfilling You learn that anything worth achieving is worth working for ,and that wishing for something to happen is different from working toward making it happen. 


More importantly, you learn that in order to achieve success you need direction,discipline and perseverance .You also learn that no one can do it all alone and that it is OK to risk asking for help. 


You learn that the only thing that the only thing you must truly fear is the great baron of all time:FEAR itself .You learn to step right into and thruogh your fears because you know that whatever happens you can handle it ,and to give in to fear is to give away the right to live life on your terms.And you learn to fight for your life and not to squander it living under a cloud if impending storm. 


You learn to think that life isnt always fair ,you don't always get what you think you deserve ;and that sometimes bad things happen to unsuspecting good people.On these occasions you learn not to personalize things. 


You learn that life isnt punishing you or failing to fulfill your dreams.It's just life happening.And you learn that negative feelings such as anger ,envy,resentment must be understood and redirected or they will suffocate  the life out of you ,and poison the universe that surrounds you. 


You learn to admit when you are wrong and to build bridges instead of walls .You learn to be thankful and to take comfort in many of the simple things we take for granted,things that million of people upon the earth can only dream about:a full refrigerator ,clean running water ,a soft and warm bed, a long,hot shower. 


Slowly you begin to take responsibility by yourself,and you make yourself a promise never to betray yourself and never ever settle for less that your heart's desire.And you hang on a wind chime outside your window so you can listen to the wind. And you make it a point to keep smiling ,to keep trusting and to stay open to every wonderful opportunity. 


Finally with courage in your heart and a deeper understanding ,you take a stand; you take a deep breath ;and you begin to design the life you want to live as best as you can. 

A time comes in your life

I was browsing through my stuff the other night and found a clipping of an article that i kept on a diary.It was something that ive read every time i feel that i am amounting to nothing and reaching nowhere. So i just wanted to share it with you guys in the hope that this will inspire something in you just like it did for me.


A time comes in your life when you finally get it...when in the midst of all your fears  and insanity you stop dead in your tracks, and somewhere the voice inside your head cries out -ENOUGH


Enough fighting and crying out or struggling to hold on.and like a child quieting down after a blind tantrum,your sobs begin to subside and you shudder once or twice , you blink back your tears , and through a mantle of wet lashes you begin to look at the world through new eyes.This is your awakening.


You realize that its time to stop hoping and waiting for something to change or for happiness , safety and security to come galloping over the next horizon.You come to terms with the fact that he is not Prince Charming and you are not Cinderella and that in the real world there aren't always fairy tale endings(or beginnings for that matter)and that any guarantee of "happily ever after" must begin with you :and in the process a sense of security is born of acceptance.


You awaken to the fact that you are not perfect and that not everyone will always love , appreciate or approve of who are what you are ...and thats OK(They are entitled to their own views and opinions)And you learn the importance of loving and championing yourself and in the process a sense of new found confidence is born of self approval.You stop complaining and blaming others for the things they did to you(or didnt do for you)and you learn that the only thing that you can really count on is the unexpected.


You learn that people dont always say what they mean and mean what they say ,and that not everyone will always be there for you: and that its not always about you.So you learn to stand on your own and to take care of yourself :and in the process  a sense of safety and security is born to accepting people as they are , and to overlokk their shortcomings and human frailties , and in the process a sense of peace  and contentment is born of forgiveness.


You learn to open up to new worlds and different points of view.And you begin reassessing and redefining who you are and what you really stand for.You learn the difference between wanting and needing.You learn that principles such as honesty and integrity are not outdated ideals of  a bygone era ,but the mortar that holds together the foundation upon which you must build a life.You learn that you dont know everything ,and that its not your job to save the world ...and that you cant teach a pig to sing. 


You learn to distinguish between guilt and responsibility ,and the importance of setting boundaries ,and learning to say NO.You learn that the only cross to bear is the one that you choose to carry and that martyrs get burnt at the stake.


Then you learn about love ,Romantic love and familial love.How to love ,how much to give in love,when to stop giving and when to walk away.You learn not to project your needs or your feelings onto a relationship. 
You stop trying to control people ,situations and outcomes .You learn that just as people grow and change,so it is with love ...and you learn that you dont have the right to demand love on your terms...just to make you happy.And that alone does not mean lonely..And you look in the mirror and comes to terms with the fact that you will never be a size 5 or a perfect 10 and you stop trying to compete with the image inside your head and agonizing how you "stack up"


Whew this article is kinda long so im just going to post the continuation of this on my next post. 

Wicked Site

I consider myself a researcher before a shopper in a sense that i try to gather everything there is on a product that i intend to buy. The reason is that i would want to  invest on something that would make me happy and content, it would be a waste if i would buy something so extravagant only to realize in the end that i was not satisfied right?


Since i am on a pc everyday researching and browsing, i found a website that would be of great help to consumers who would want to "do their homework" before spending their hard earned cash. It is designed for Australian citizens however i found the general  information there to be useful regardless of the location of the consumer.


Shopwiki Au  is the site that i am talking about.It is not part of Wikipedia however it does use the wiki software, enabling users to edit or add information that may be valuable to consumers in the future.


 I was looking on the digital cameras guide  and found it educational because i know little about digital cameras. I know how to shoot pictures with it however im not that familiar on the features that would most suit me if i do decide to buy one.

The guide explains why you would want one,the features to look out for, the type of cameras and my favorite,the jargons area.Furthermore, it also provides you with the prices and the stores that carries the camera of your choice.


 It is perfect for those who have the urge to buy and yet doesn't have anything specific in mind. So visit their site, im sure you'll all appreciate the information that they have just like i do.

Lovin the groove of Jason Mraz

There are a lot of artists emerging one after another,their music is as hypnotic as their personality.They gain a lot of fans and when its time to hear them sing live...You wonder if you've been duped because the voice you are hearing is so far fetched from the voice that you have listened over and over from their cd. 


Most of the artists nowadays have their own voices remixed so it is really a big treat for fans if they have an idol who has an amazing voice regardless if its live or recorded.One such artist is Jason Mraz. I have watched his videos on youtube and wow he can really sing.His voice is the same or even better when he is singing his songs live on concerts.


For me he is someone who sings from the heart because every emotion on the song is something that everyone can relate to. It talks of poignant experiences that may have happened to others and it is written in a way that illustrates the pain and somehow the irony of the situation itself. 


The way he uses the words and somehow making every little thing connected to it is amazing.To listen to him adlib his way when he is still adjusting his guitar ,making up stories to just play with the audience makes me feel that he is a genuine person whom you can really reach out to and grab by the hand.  


His humor is infectious and the subjects are not really funny in itself but is something that is usually ignored unless it is pointed out. It makes you think and laugh off things that bothers you. 


When it comes to his music, for me it is something that will make you think of the sun, ocean and travelling. Ive often had his songs played when im travelling since it makes me feel relaxed and eager for the journey ahead. Sometimes, it makes me reminisce of the loves i lost along the way, the pain that i felt at that time and how i found myself again. Oftentimes it just makes me laugh out loud on how the heck he made something really ordinary into something that tickled the imaginations of the audience who is listening to his songs. 


If i would have the chance to just corner him and talk to him, i would be thrilled to take off ....umm not his clothes....although that would be satisfying as well, his hat and just seat with him to peak into his mind just so i can figure out how he makes something really amazing. 

New curves

Yep i am a new woman now thanks to Laybare Libis Branch lol. Nah i didn't go there to avail of their Brazillian wax , i just tagged along because my friends have standing appointments for that particular service .Since i was there already, i decided to have my eyebrows threaded. My eyebrow needs a bit of maintenance since it was a couple of months already and they have no shape at all.

Even though it wasn't my first time, it still hurt. I can feel every hair being pulled by the thread and i was just thankful that the attendant was skilled and fast so it didn't hurt that long. she cautioned me not to was the area for 4 hours and put an antibacterial ointment on it. 

When i looked at my brows, they looked  decent enough.My face somehow changed since it made me look more professional and polished.The whole process took about 15 minutes or less so i was left on the reception area to wait for my other friends to finish up. 

You may wonder how women can take all those pain right.Its not that were masochistic girls who gets off feeling pain. Its just, as they say the price to pay to be beautiful 

My Dream house

I am a fan of the MTV cribs and seeing artists with mansions that they call home often makes me wonder if i will ever get the chance to have one property under my name.Considering how the economy is today and the lack of the steady income on my part well, its is kinda far fetched today to have a mansion.Nevertheless, one can always dream right ?  So with the pictures still fresh on my mind, i searched on the net for a home that is as grand and luxurious as the one ive seen on the tv and this is what i came up with.

I found this picture on the net and instantly fell inlove with the place, who wouldnt be right ? The place is magnificent, the view is breathtaking and i could very well imagine a princess peering on the balcony ,waiting  for a shooting star to fall so she could wish for a prince charming to sweep her off her feet 

Since i was in awe and caught up with this picture in drew in my head, i found myself craving to see some more pictures of this place.I searched for the source  and found that it is one of the properties being sold on Paradise Valley Real Estate.It is said to  have exclusive resorts and golf courses available for the enjoyment of its residents,which included some of the legendary stars that has graced the covers of magazines and papers

 

I researched some more and found the view of some of the houses to be the Camelback Mountain which is considered to be the Landmark icon of the Phoenix,Arizona .This mountain  offers four different trails with varying degrees of difficulty from easy to strenuous, you can bite-off as much as your time allows.Those facts made me even more starstruck with the place and since the site is user-friendly and has MLS Virtual Mapping,it allowed me to view the houses like never before, as if i was i really there. 

After i exhausted myself looking at all the pictures of the properties they sell, i decided to bookmark their site and take note of the Holm Group in Scottsdale , Arizona as one of the places to visit when i do go to America. Maybe i'll purchase one of their houses when i get to be a millionaire since they represent  buyers and sellers alike in a variety of transactions all over the Valley.

Addicted with Sookie Stackhouse

I have been reading a lot of vampire themed books lately.Starting with Twilight and after i finished reading the 4 books on that saga, i began to search for other books that has the same theme. I found a lot of books and one of them is the Southern Vampire Series ,which is now known as either the Sookie Stackhouse series or Trublood Series. 


I havent seen the series yet but im finding the book very addicting and i'm unable to put it down. I am fascinated with the lead character Sookie because she always tries to do the right thing regardless if it would lead to trouble. It is also funny how she attracts the attention of every supernatural being, having two vampires attracted to her, a fairy for a protector( sort of), a werewolf trying to court her, a were panther who thinks she is a suitable breeding partner,a shifter(her boss) having hidden desires for her and most recently a weretiger wanting to date her. 


Anyways,I had just finished the 5th book and it was so fantastic that ive finished reading it after an hour.Since i so wanted to read the next one, i went to a bookstore earlier to get it .I didn't wrote the title so i bought the wrong book, should have bought definitely dead instead of the all together dead one so im off to the book store next week to buy the right one this time. 




I also bought her other book, A Touch of Dead, which contained short stories on Sookie as well. I was so lucky to have found it since all the other branches just had the Hard bound Version of it. I would have wanted to read it after i finished the 8 books but lets see if i can hold out that long. hehehhee

Im now visible

Since Yuuki has a blog post about having her Page Rank increased from PR2 to PR3, i was curious if i will have any PR at all.I was surprised that i have, instead of the usual n/a, a PR 1 site. I checked a couple of sites to make sure that it was not a mistake and since every one of them said the same thing, i immediately posted it on my site.


Since i am a noob when it comes to these things, i researched a bit and found out that it PR is rated from 0-10 so the higher it is, the more popular your website is, so it means that i have more back links and  visitors than before which is really cool.


Now that i am seeing some of the fruits of my labor, i will work even harder this year so watch out blogging world. Here i come !

Increased eye grade

We are supposed to watch the Movie avatar however since it is still MMFF week, only local movies are shown on theaters.So i just decided to have my eyes checked on EO, i was surprised that my eye grade jumped from 300 to 400/375. My left eye has a grade 400 wherein my right has 375.

The optometrist said that on contact lenses, the grade on my left eye would be lowered so both will have the same grade but if i decided to have new glasses then they would retain the grade that i have been diagnosed.

I purchased a pair of aquamarine colored contact lenses that will last for 3 months and thrown the old one that i wore. I was glad that i decided to stop by because i was worried that i'm wearing the wrong grade,looks like i was right.

Paid by Neobux

Now thats the way to welcome a new year so far so good

At home with my future inlaws

It was the first day of year 2010 and what a way to start the new year than to attend the annual family reunion of my boyfriend.Since most of his titos and tita already know me as well as his cousins, i agreed to drop by at his place and he will meet me at the nearest mall.

I arrived at the meeting place near lunch time so when we got to his place .Everything was all set and we'll just sit down and eat. His aunt was there and immediately told me not to be shy and just eat. Everytime they notice my plate is empty ,they will gesture for my boyfriend to refill it with fresh shrimps,talaba and spicy milkfish.

By the time i finished eating, i can feel my dress getting tight near the belly area and sure enough when i look i can see my stomach stretching the fabric. I think the whole time i was there, i am always have a plate filled with either salad,spaghetti or shrimps.

I was put on the hot seat when he left me on their dining table to help his sister fix her laptop.His uncles quiz me if i still have my helmet on and if i haven't awoken yet. I was still laughing by the time my bf got back and he answered his uncle for me saying that the helmet he put on me is very durable and cant be broken that easily.

They also quiz my bf asking him questions like what is he waiting for since we've known each other for more than 3 years.That is why when we are talking on my way home, he asked me which i prefer,a civil or a church wedding.

Before we left, his cousin took pictures of the whole family including me.Its as if i'm already part of their family hehehhe.

Despite my lack of sleep, it was an enjoyable day since i was able to be with him plus i was also able to give him my gift. A dilbert calendar filled with cartoons,quizzes and trivia that he can solve.

He also gave me a gift, the next book of the Sookie Stockhouse series titled Dead to the World. Now i will know what happened next heheheh.

Cant wait to read the book but since i'm about to doze of in front of the pc, i might as well catch some much needed zzzzs.

See yah tomorrow! Mwah!

Happy New Year

I cant believe its the last day of 2009. How time flies. Oh yes,i owe you guys a story oh how the reunion went with my cousins.Well it was fun, i thought i would be bored just like last last year however it was different this time.My cousins were there talking to me and it turns out there are planning a lot of trips next year.They will go to Pagudpod on march,May they will be on Marinduque and on November they are planning to go to Hongkong. Man i wish i could go with them on one of those trips, i'm not really sure if i will have work on those times but ill sure try.

I didn't tell them that I've been kicked out of my job but i just told them that i resigned.I'm kinda ashamed that i'm out of job while they still have one.

To go on with the story, they imitated a game show that they've seen on tv.One needs to guess the word written on the cardboard taped on his head by asking questions, then another one will sit directly in front of the guesser to answer those questions.

It was really funny because we know the answer is right in front of them.We howled by the time that the guesses were really close to the answer. The tips given by my other cousins were really hilarious, saying that the answer is the guessers favorite.But when we asked, it wasn't on the list of th guessers favorite.

The food was delicious and though i tasted everything there, it didn't make me full. I was hungry by the time we got home and craving for something else.

It was a fun night except for all that shouting and singing of Korean songs all through out the evening. Though i don't have anything against Korean music, it just gave me a migraine since it was played full blast and i'm just besides the speaker.

Once we said our goodbyes to everyone surprisingly those who came all the way from Cavite also decided to leave and call it a day.

It was a great night to say the least. Anyways Happy New Year to all.Gotta help with the food preparations.

Mwah!

I owe you one

Hey guys, sorry i owe you two stories today.Im kinda worn out due to the reunion that ive just attended. With all the shouting, laughing and korean music i heard, i may need to rest my batteries so i can tell the story.

I'll try to post after i get a good night/day sleep.

See yah tomorrow mwah!

a birthday bash with a scare on the side.

As promised, i went to the birthday bash of a very good friend held in Cuba Libre somewhere in Shaw Boulevard. Since i wasnt able to eat before going out, we first went to eat dinner in Shangrila Mall. The place is nearly vacant except for us and some others whom i think is still trying to complete their Christmas gift list.

We decided to eat Wendys and i ordered a spicy chicken meal while they ordered in a burger meal. The meal didn't really satisfied my cravings and my hunger but off we went to to bar for the birthday bash. We greeted our friend and i sat beside my friends best friend to catch up on what is going on with her.

After a couple of minutes,drinks were ordered along with a couple of plates of sisig. I'm not really a drinker so i just opted for a glass of iced tea. Pictures were taken cosmo style and i switched seats to be on the action as well.

We talked about everything and anything that caught our attention including the singer whom we all thought was a hooker since she has a very very short dress or a stand up comedian because of the weird way she laughs.

I think the party ended around 12 midnight and then we tried searching for a new place to hang out preferably Starbucks. Since it was Sunday, most of their branches are closed saved for their branch in Metrowalk. So we split up, the birthday girl going home to sleep while the others still have work in a couple of hours leaving me and my two friends.

We boarded a taxi and luckily found seats for ourselves.We ordered a much needed fix of their delicious coffee to chase away the sleepiness and a croissant since im hungry.

We talked,laughed and swap stories about the love,life and the friendship we have up until now not to mention the hurt, pain and realities of falling in love with a wrong guy or trusting someone whom you thought is your friend.

When it was past 5am, we decided to take our leave but not before posing for another picture just like above*i'm the one in the middle by the way hehehhe. We walked from Metrowalk to Megamall whew all the while reminiscing how fantastic the day went for us.

Suddenly when we are about to cross the street , we saw someone lying unconscious on the ground. His shoes were far away from him and his things scattered all over the place. A couple of bystanders walked to the man,examining him and shouted for help. A traffic enforcer came by and some other curious motorist stop by the scene.

It seemed that the man was a victim of a hit and run by a jeepney. It was 6am at that time and we found ourselves unable to cross the street fearing the same could happen to us. A cigarette vendor helped us cross the street, signalling for motorist to stop so we can make our way on the other side. We also asked him directions on how to get to mega mall since we were distracted by what we saw.

We proceeded with caution after thanking the vendor .We resumed our girlish talks and continued walking on the direction he pointed to us. After i think 15 minutes of walking,we reached our destination and since i live on the north and other one in Cavite.We parted ways while me and my other friend got on a bus bound for Monumento.

Since i was not able to eat a proper breakfast, i was nauseous by the time we boarded the bus so i was quiet at the time.When i got home i texted my bf letting him know im safe and home then slept.I woke up around 2pm in the afternoon.I was supposed to meet a friend but then thats another story to tell.

Till tomorrow then Mwah!

Kinda sick today

Hi guys just came from a gimmick and im kinda feeling sick for some strange reason. I would like to just stay at home and tell you what an awesome day i had with my friends yesterday, however i promised a friend my presence so i gotta run. Sure hope my stomach wont give me much trouble.

I'll let you guys know how my day went when i get back which i think will be tomorrow. See yah tomorrow mwah!

Weird Love

I was reading through the things that my friends posted on Facebook and found a weird quote that summed up what i feel about some things in general. It says

We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.

I was laughing when i read it because i completely agree with this quote. Everybody has their share of weirdness and at some point we envision someone who can accept us for what we really are, without hiding anything at all. I admit that i am weird at some point and i was afraid that i would just be alone but then again i found someone who shares that quality.

I found someone who kinda surpasses my weirdness and wears it like a badge of honor. Someone who delights in being different and unique and weird.

I felt really happy because its hard to find someone who has the same aspirations and dreams just like i am.Now i wont be alone, someone would be there for me to back me up all the way.There is someone that can relate to what i am feeling weird or not and will always love me for what i really am.

So how about you guys have you found your weird love ?

Hats off to the Bloggers

I've just recently been reintroduced to blogging by my Tp friends and though i have been blogging way way back, it was just now that i have been actively posting everyday. It was nerve wracking in a way because i have to think of something interesting to blog about. Let me tell since i am just here at home, you can imagine how boring my life is, stuck here everyday.

Since i have a lot of ads to click and PTC sites to visit, i have glimpsed a lot of interesting blogs everyday .I must say i am amazed on their creativity,their patience as well on their skill just to make their blog very interesting to those who visit. I usually get stuck to their page reading something that i thought i would never find. If not for the time limit i have on the pc , (i share the pc with my dad and bro) i would have spent my day browsing every one of them.

So i would just like to salute all the active bloggers out there who makes blogging something to be proud of .Those who rack their brains everyday to bring laughter and something new online. For the new gadgets, information and widgets that they find and share to everybody to make blogging exciting and easy.

They have continued to inspire me to work harder and to make my blog as interesting and as good as it can be.Keep blogging guys!!!

Experimental Gelatin

Remember that I've told you guys that were going to make gelatin yesterday.Well we did and the first time was so bad that we decided to just throw some of it and make a new one. We bought the ready to mix powder type about ten pesos each and decided that we would try out the grape flavor first.

We mix it with the 6 cups of water and then added evaporated milk and sugar in it. Stirred it and put it in the stove to boil. The color was very weird, you know the color of the water you used to clean your dishes and then there are bubbles of soap, that was how it looked like. We tried to taste it however we were kinda grossed out on what it turned out plus with my brother laughing so hard.I didn't get to analyze the taste of it.For me it tasted weird.

We tried it the 2nd time and tried the strawberry flavor.It looked normal enough but we havent tasted it yet. It is still in the freezer waiting to be tasted. Any volunteers? lol

New microwave finally!

Finally i can have my food reheated without putting it in a pot and heating it through the stove.The problem is i have to drag the extension cord from the sala down to the kitchen ahahaha. Anyways, we decided to get an American Home microwave Oven for 2,750 pesos versus the LG microwave that retails for 3,000 pesos.

It kinda looks like the picture above except for it being white and brand new lol. After our dad brought it home, we were like children with a new toy to play with. We bought a microwaveable popcorn earlier so we immediately put it inside and watch the popcorn bag expand and the popcorns pop.

When we open the popcorn bag, we smelled how delicious it is and attacked it with gusto. I think we ate all of it within 5 minutes or so. We combined eating the popcorn with m and m chocolates to combat the salty taste.

We're already getting excited on what other things we can heat on the microwave and im happy that i can finally heat my pizzas on a "microwave" yipeeee.

Anyways ill be trying my hand on those gelatins and i hope that it will be edible *crossing fingers* If not theres always a pain killer on the kitchen. hmm maybe i should get it ready just in case ahahaha. Wish me luck guys hehehhe

Till next time :P

Christmas Preparations

I cant believe it. Its already December 24 tomorrow.Time surely flies when you don't notice it. Anyways, we already made some preparations as to what were going to eat on that day hehehe.

We bought a black forest cake from Goldilocks and my dad will cook barbeque tomorrow.Maybe we'll also try our hand in making a gelatin dessert as well.

We're suppose to watch a movie earlier but i was kinda feeling tired so i guess we'll try to watch avatar tomorrow.

Anyways i gotta log out for now to watch a replay of American Idol. yipee

Stressed out

Since im out of job for a couple of weeks now.I remembered how stressful it is to be at home . For starters, since im here 24/7 what i do on the net is seen and for them it seems like a pathetic way to spend time on. I am again a subject of their criticisms like i need to do something useful for a change in my life. I need to change my boyfriend since a. he doesnt have the good looks that they wanted b. he doesnt show any effort to get to know them and c. he is out of work just like me.

I also need to have a dream.Since right now for them, i don't have any.I think for them to consider that i have a dream, i would need to have the yearning to go abroad. Umm yeah riiiiiight.I know being a parent means hoping for the best for their children.However i am getting tired of this "phrase" being thrown in my face every time. Maybe the news can have a headline like "recession hit every country in the world so wherever you go people are losing jobs" so they can get the hint.

Sure i have dreams of my own however due to me being the eldest i have this responsibility to help my family and give them half of my paycheck everytime i get my pay.

I have to think of my family first before i do something else.

As a girl i need to learn how to cook. I need to look like an innocent being that is void of green thoughts and impurities. I also have the responsibility to look for a boyfriend who they think will look good when im beside him.Someone who will be here everyday and be at my beck and call. Someone who will shower me gifts, compliments and has a lot of money.

Having a prince charming like that, yeah that would be cool. However i am not a Disney princess that is in dire need for a prince charming. I have my own money, i don't need and want a guy to hang around with me all day like he has no life of his own. I already met guys like that and it is so suffocating that i ran for the nearest exit.

So when can i think of myself and for myself...your guess is as good as mine.

Reunion with my Cosmo friends

Sorry i wasnt able to blog yesterday. There was a surprise get together and since i haven't seen those guys for a couple of months, I've decided to meet up with them in Trinoma which ended at Gateway in cubao.

Its funny really, all our meetings somehow starts and ends with coffee. I often joke that it is our official sponsor and that it would be lonesome if we don't have any cafe to go to.If walls can talk , i bet every branch of Starbucks, Gloria jeans or coffee bean have a lot of stories to tell on those encounters and since its cosmo its something that is bound to be Rated PG or 18 lol

Anyways, It was as usual, filled with laughter with me mostly thinking about something else (read: greenminded) and me eating chicken (again?!) Ive missed how we have this connection,all talking at the same time, laughters that i think will be heard all throughout the cafe,gossiping about the latest girl that's making us all pissed off and the latest carnal or green thing that we have heard.

I was astonished that the issues that happened eons ago is still being talked about as if it happened just yesterday. I found myself on the hot seat as some old but very popular issue was brought to a table and i think that i may have been red as a tomato at that time.

Meeting somebody new and knowing that she too knows about it makes me think that i am being measured from head to toe. Its like i'm naked and she is there seeing everything. I'm not really sure what she is thinking now that she met me and have seen how i reacted to those issues.

I bet my life that it will somehow come to the attention of somebody else therefore making an old news new again. Oh well i guess it will be a part of everyday gossip...As one of my friends say, While you're young, do something foolish so when you grow old, you have something to laugh about. I think this is one of those things that i should just laugh about.
