Great People

Today the weather is quite fine. Although metro manila was not hit by the super typhoon Yolanda, we still experienced rain showers and strong winds… But just what CNN commented about the Filipinos, we will just brush off the dirt on our clothes and move on as if everything that happened was just a dream. Life will go on and everything will be back to normal and thinking on mundane things like what you can save on abelton live will resume..things like this and more.

Missing Music

I love to see myself working in a studio desk again. I was able to experience that when I was working in our church’s music CD. We had an opportunity to collaborate with a great team of musicians and a studio owner allowed us to use his equipments for free. I miss it now. I miss singing and I miss working on music. How I wish I can still do that now..

Old Timer Desktop

Working on my online task is taking a toll on me. Aside from my schedule and my fluctuating electricity, my desktop is not working properly. I think I’ve already did everything I can on how to make my computer faster but still didn’t work. I guess the only solution is to say good bye to my old friend desktop. I hope that my laptop arrives soon so I can finish my work on time.

Why Can't They Quit..

Cigarette is dangerous to our health. And even though some cigar brands claim that they contain less nicotine, they still have that chemical that is harmful to our bodies. But why do smokers still choose to smoke? Because they can’t help it. It’s like part of their system that is hard to get rid of. That’s what my friend told me. So even if there’s a lot of anti-smoking campaign, they ignore it. But she still hopes that someday she will be able to quit smoking.

What's Up With Us?

It's been a while since I updated this blog about my family and so there are a lot of things that happened already that has not been posted here. My bad..:(

Anyways, I hope that this would be the start of an update...what's happening?

My daughter is turning 7 this month and she is super excited with her small party. I'm currently preparing for it and guess what? I only had 3 weeks to do it.I hope I can pull it off.

My son is entering pre-school this school year. He's 3.4 and he's still a babe, so I was thinking if he will be able to managed the activities..hope he'll enjoy it. I'm a little bit scared since he's so different with his sister. My girl started going to pre-school at 3 years old and she enjoyed it. With my son, I guess it's a little bit different. 

Well as for me, I'm thinking of quitting my job again but this is a major decision to make..We'll see what will happen next..

Achy...:-(

Been feeling sick for a week now, I got muscle and joint pains because of stress. I hope that traumeel ointment could help me ease the pains even a bit. It’s hard when you feel achy and stressful and when even pain relievers couldn’t help, you’re at a loss on how to find cure. Sigh…hopefully the pain would be over and will be feeling floating like a feather soon.

Musically Inclined Family

Passion for music is there when we are born and if we see that our kids have that, parents should show support and encourage them to pursue that passion. Music is not only a hobby or something what we can do during our free time it can be a healing aid to some, and a source of income to many..how good would it be if we have kids who knows how to play piano, drums, guitar, clarinet and a person who can sing, we can have a family band! Hehe. Kidding aside, music should be pursued if we see them in our kids. And that’s what I’m doing with my little girl who started to love the black and white keys of a piano.

Music Passion

My kids are somehow inclined to musical instruments. My daughter is now learning piano basic in her school. She also likes to take violin class next year. My son loves drums. When he finds it, he would tap our table as if he was playing the set. He’s also fond of the strings..he loves playing his toy guitar. I’m thinking that we should enroll him a music class to develop this musical passion. And when he can already hold a real guitar, maybe we can purchase his own baby taylor guitar at guitar center

Piracy?

It’s not hard tofind cd duplication online when you need services for this. But why would you do this when the anti-piracy campaign is there? Well, this business does not only feed from those who are trying to pirate computer programs, movies or cds. It can be said that some people would make multiple duplications of a CD or DVD for files, references and not to pirate the originals. Wee

And so the Christmas Countdown starts...

Happy to say that finally, I'm done with our Christmas home decorations. It would be our first Christmas in our new home so I want to make sure it would be something memorable and new for the kids. It's my first time to hang Christmas stockings which the little girl noticed. She said, she's expecting she'll get goodies out of that stockings come Christmas eve...well.I hope Santa will have the time to shop for goodies to fill in that stockings so that the kids won't be disappointed ^__^

Here's me, excited for Christmas.

It's 34 days to go!

Me Time

Right now, I feel the to have a refreshing bath bodypampering. I feel so stressed out from the activities and the work last night. I haven’t had this kind of pampering yet and so I feel the need now. Maybe some time in a spa would do me good. I need to freshen up and lighten up a little bit. Hmmmm….I wonder where should I go….?

Career Advancement

Getting advanced degree is a plus point in advancing your career. That’s why in some countries, professionals take online GRE test to improve their self worth. In our world filled with competitions here and there, we must do something to make ourselves better and competitive. We need to have an edge among others. That’s why there are online degrees now to help professionals in their goal to be more advance and valued. There is no place for comfort zones. If we want to be competitive we must do something to advance ourselves.

If Only I Can Have 48 Hours A Day

So much things are happening right now and even as I tinker on my cherry keyboard writing this, my mind is everywhere. I have so many tasks to do; working on special project for my church, searching for ideas for the teacher’s day celebration for my daughter’s school, gathering ideas as well for our small group, and thinking of other things aside from these…haaaaaayyy..I wish I’ll still have more time like what I used to have before when I was not working and having this work schedule. ~_~

Until Then

I came across a store while looking for car accessories in a mall last week. It’s a store at which truck gps systems are being sold. I wonder if they can also install gps for my car, hehe. But seriously, a gps can be a big help for me since I am a new driver but I don’t think my car is one that can accommodate a modern machine like that. Well, I’ll just patiently wait until we are blessed with a new and modern family car. Until then, I’ll have to be loyal with Ms. Kia :)

An Officer not a Gentle Man :)

We we’re in Ortigas area a while ago driving on our way home when an officer (not really a traffic enforcer) signaled us to stop. As far as I know we didn’t do any traffic violations so I don’t know what he wants with us. He told my husband that he’s going to give us violation ticket because one of our headlights is not working. He said that we could be mistaken as motorcycle because of it and it could be dangerous….well, what do you think? Does he have a point there? I don’t know. He’s not even a traffic enforcer, it’s Feb. 14 and it’s 8:00 in the evening. I was thinking he just wants us to give him something—you know what I mean. And I’m right. But of course my husband didn’t give in. He explained his side and so the officer didn’t insist to give us the ticket. Sometimes this people are disgusting. If he insisted that we pay him I would have called help from an Oklahoma City lawyer…..of course, I’m kidding, hehe. Well, I’m just thankful that the officer didn’t waste so much of our time.

A lesson I learned a while ago...

Daddy’s not here. He went out for a while to visit a friend. While he’s out I took the little girl to the nearby mall and ate at Chowking (I’m craving for Halo-halo, lol!). I never thought it would be difficult now for me to travel alone with a little girl in tow. When we were walking I realized, I couldn’t catch up with the little girl. She’s walking faster than me. I felt my knees are shaking (maybe because I’m carrying a big baby inside me, haha!) but no, I don’t need a knee arthritis treatment yet, lol! And while inside Chowking the little girl told me that she’s going to pee, I didn’t thought about that--How can I managed to assist a little girl without worrying that the crews will clean our table when they saw that no one is occupying it. Haayz! Good thing we were seated near the rest room so I led the little girl inside and wait for her to finish while finishing our food. Actually she didn’t pee, she pooped. This made me realized, I won’t leave again without someone to help me with the little girl.

Ever After...

When I first saw my husband when he came home last April, I was a bit surprised. Though I was already informed about his hair problem (that is, his continuous hair loss), I didn’t know exactly how he looked. When I saw him, I immediately thought of getting treatment for hair loss for men that was being advertised in a home TV shopping channel. Actually, it’s not that bad…he isn’t bald yet when he came but his hair is not as thick as before he left. Unfortunately, we we’re not able to buy the hair treatment. He said he doesn’t need it. Now, after 8 months, the hair fall stopped and his hair now has grown thicker. But he’s leaving again (maybe next month) so I don’t know if he can still maintain his hair. But of course, with or without his hair, I'll still love him, lol!
