Day 5: Your Dream House

via

They say when you dream, dream big and so here I am.
This may be a big one but we all have definitions of big.

This I have to say to the universe: A resort type house with serenity sprinkled all over
and a touch of wood inside.


Presenting my dream house and what it should have:
1. Pool. For me to simply exercise (as what I am doing in our Condo right now)
2. Big Kitchen with Kitchen showcase. My avenue for my other passion which is cooking
3. Garden. This is for Weegee to have a place where he can runs tumble and run again
4. Walk-in Closet. For Vanity and organization purposes

Dreaming but believing this will happen :)

Day 4 : Something you are OC about

2 things: LPG Gasul and Car lock

Sometimes, I wish I am not OC about these two things mentioned above but years have passed by and I'm still oc about it.

1. LPG Gasul

Before, I will leave the house whether I am alone or I have companion with me, it would take me 3 to 5 times to check if I turn it off. Much worst, there were times, I already locked the door and walked a few steps, I would still come back to check, re check, check....OC ba or weird lang? :)

2. Car Lock

I know it's automatic lock but I have to do 2 to 4 times rounds and have it check manually.And there's still more, I have this habit of looking at the mirror and stare if it's on hand break. The same with LPG Gasul, I walked a few steps and then come back and check again.

Checker siguro ako in my past life :)

To the O, to the C,

Day 3: A photo taken over 10 years ago of you

This is the best that I can get. 2007 picture. My old pictures are compiled however it would be quite challenging to have it uploaded. Here you go me and of course as my choice I want a picture of me and my life's joy---- my baby WeeGee.

Day 2: 20 of your Favorite Things

at RW

1. My Toshiba Laptop. First, we had a lot of shared memories together. I bring it during my training class and it had witnessed how happy I was that time. Second, without it, I won't be able to blog or even go to social networking sites to connect to friends and acquaintances.Lastly, all my powerpoint presentations are stored here :). Period.

2.Bag collection. I am proud to say that I am more of a bag-a-holic I love them to pieces and takes care of it since was either given or I bought it. In the bag closet are RL, XOXO, Tommy Hilfiger, Lacoste, Liz Claiborne and more to come..

3. Picture Frames. I love Weegee's framed pictures.

4. My Car. For some odd and weird reason, I don't use it often even if it's my favorite plus the fact that recently I have trauma driving my car.By the way, her name is Purple.

5. My old journals. I love looking at it and reading past posts. Funny as I look back those days.

6.My Bath Collection and Lotion.

7. Makeup Palette. Am not putting on makeup as I used to be in the past,now it's like twice or thrice a week. I just do the basic like eyeliner, blush and brow pencil, and that's part of the daily routine.

8. Books. Currently reading: James Patterson 7th Heaven. I practically grew up reading books and always feels at home when I'm reading one.

9. White Shorts. It just goes out with anything like it can be quite formal and casual and it's comfortable.

10.My current Planner. My sis gave me a Starbucks Planner and what it contains are multitude of quotes for my own inspiration.

Hmmm, the title was 20 but I can't think of anything as of the moment, maybe this could be an installment and I could just add on my next posts, the other half. I guess one denominator from the list I have written is that they are/were part of my life's experiences which led to good memories.

Cheers,

30 Day Challenge: Day 1

A photo that makes you happy



This photo really makes me happy every time I look at it.For me, this is classic in all sense and not to mention that this was his first photoshoot when he was 2 and a half shot in Quezon City wildlife with my friend who happens to be a talented photographer. Andameng likes ng photo when I uploaded this in Facebook last 2010 and of course as a proud mommie, that really made me happy.Lastly, it has a nice frame inside our house.:)

Chinese New Year

Just that, up to now I wasn't able to buy my charms for this year. Still my last charms bracelet is Joy Lim's all in one bracelet as I have lost my dzi.

Anyway, wouldn't let this day pass without a blog post and greeting of
Happy Chinese New Year to all!!!!

Abundance, Prosperity and Peace!!!!

I want tikoy :),

11 and 2011

And yes this is a 2011 thank you blog post and have been in my to do list for the last couple of days. I don't know how to begin really but bottom line is I know I have to shout thank you and be grateful. After 2007, 2011 was a trying year and time for me in all aspects and I realized that the more I should be thankful for... why? Because I emerged as a stronger person, made me see life and things in different perspective and re assess my goals. Now, who wouldn't want that? I just realized that it presented itself as problems, trials, and misfortunes but this was where I gained the most. Still, happy things happened, blessings were great and I still hope for the best and say my thank you! Yan ang spirit :)


11 and 2011



1. Palawan revisited. January of 2011 was when I revisited my mom’s hometown for free courtesy of my aunt because I so much need my eat, love and pray moments (arte hahha)but it is always a breather to go to a place that I always regard as simple and serene. And not to mention having good finds in their Ukay! And having again the chance to smile to Mayor Hagedorn when I saw him!

2. My li’l Prince’s travels. My baby, I could say have travelled a lot last 2011 here and abroad. Wala ako masabi, except that I am a happy and proud mommie and I am hoping he would still remember it few years from now. He went to Palawan, Davao, Bella Roca ( my dream), Macau and Hongkong trip (his first) with my parents and sister. At best, he is exposed at a young age and I look forward every time I would pick him up in the airport and ask for travel stories.



3. The baby goes to school. Time flies is I guest the main point. Parang kailan lang he’s a baby who’s learning to hold his bottle, now may assignments na challenging ( kids as we know they are pretty advance in their curriculum). No pressures in getting on top ( although of course it would always be a dream) but I want him to enjoy his school days.

4. Thank you Car Insurance. Without it, I guess ma stress ako ng sobra. I had a minor accident last May where the truck broke my side mirror and I was just on a stop. That got into my nerves, but accidents happen and of course I have to be thankful it was not a major one and I was safe. And there’s one hirit pa came November when I encountered a dugo-dugo one man show (another post) which created a trauma in me. Thank you Pasig police who just happen to pass by at that time.

5. My Lacoste bag. My 2nd one and I love this. Thank you.

6. Finally, the Scent. Getting a new scent that I was waiting for a couple of months and having 2 boxes or sets of it which has the lotion and bath.And an extra VS perfume.


7. My sofa. Let’s say after a decade, I finally decided in buying a simple one. Thanks bro!

8. Training. Having the opportunity to facilitate and be a teacher ( ansaya, promise) after 2 years. I used to be trainer and I so much miss it and until now I never stop dreaming of being a trainer again. This is my passion. So I was given 2 opportunities to facilitate a weekend English class with nice students and at the same time, facilitate a Supervisory training at Subic. Both were priceless to me. It was an adrenalin rush. I loved the feeling.


9. Elaine. Truth be told, I have a soft heart for azkal dogs. They are closer to my heart rather than those with breed because I feel for them as sometimes most of them are not well-cared. I am thankful that my 10 year old azkal dog Elaine (in my parents house) has survived 2011. She has a tumor in her mammary glands and just before Christmas I almost broke down and my heart fell as in. I had him medicated and I know any time she will be leaving us and I am not ready. I just made sure I made her feel loved during my Christmas stay in my parent’s house.

10. Realization. Career. Opportunities. Personal Life. Financial goals. Frienship. They were endless but I have to take note all the lessons learned and as I again move forward should not forget what I learned.

11.The Art of Getting through. I know for more than anything, God carried me and helped me with my challenges and He showed me pictures I never seen before. I know there is more to come and 2011 is just a preview to the best that is yet to come.


I can’t wait. I hope and pray for more strength and wisdom this 2012... and more beautiful and memorable things to come.

Happy New Year!!
