Startin’ A New Life

Rainy days are here, so don’t forget to bring your protective gears to combat any sickness.

Few days more and summer ‘08 will soon end but the summer isn’t over for me, rain or shine, I’ll still want to go swimming and yes I got two more swimming schedule on my list. One is this coming 16 at Sitio Lucia with my officemates. I’ve heard and read good reviews about this place. So i’ll find it out for myself this coming Friday. Then the second which I am excited is at Poracay. You’ve read that right it’s Poracay not boracay, hehehe. Guess where the place is, if you’re thinking of Porac Pampanga, then your right. My kapangpangan friends slash girlfriends slash officemates slash kikay buds said, it’s a must place to visit when at pampanga. So Im loaded with lots of fun these two Fridays in a row. Aside from that the 24th will be our 5th Anniv. we’ll be spending that day with friends at pampanga neh. Wish hubz will serenade me with O Jo kaluguran daka song. Hehehe. I got an mp3 of it in my phone and I already memorize the lyrics.

Have a splendid weekend to all!

Malayo ang tingin, si wowowee naman ang tinatanaw….hehehehe

Siya po ang aming mahal na ina ng aming angkan. Ang aking mahal na mama, iyan ang tawag namin kay lola. Kung hindi ako nag kakamali sya ay nag kaka edad na walumpu’t apat nitong darating na Mayo 29. Kaya ang larawang ito na pahirapan kong kinuha kanina ang aking lahok sa Litratong Pinoy ngayon Huwebes na may temang Mahal na Ina.

Katulad nga ng sinabi ko, pahirapan kong kinuha yan. Dangan kasi sa tuwing sasabihin ko sa kanya na kukuhaan ko siya ng litrato biruin mong tatalikod o kaya’y ihaharang ang kanyang dalawang kamay sa mukha nya. Hay ang aking lola, parang bata, napaka kulit at mahirap kausap. Medyo mahina na kasi ang kanyang pandinig kaya minsan na tumawag ako sa bahay mula sa aking opisina, siya ang nakasagot at hindi pa man ako nagsasalita sukat ba namang sabihin nyang,

mamaya ka na lang tumawag wala ang kailangan mong tao dito,

sabay baba nya ng telepono. Pinindot ko ulit ang numero ng aming bahay nagbabakasakali na na may ibang sumagot, ng pag angat ng telepono, siya na naman ang nakasagot at sabay sabi nya na may iritadong boses na,

ang kulit mo sabi ko na mamaya ka na tumawag at wala ang taong kailangan mo dito

…nyahahaha…oo nga naman, sinabi nga na wala doon eh, umulit pa ng tawag, ayan….nasigaw at nasabihan tuloy ako ng makulit ni lola. hahaha

Ang lola ko talaga, masungit na makulit. Ganun pa man, mahal na mahal namin siya. Siya kasi ang nag aruga sa aming magkakapatid noon bata pa at tagapagtanggol namin pag pinapagalitan ng tatay at nanay. Mama, dalangin namin sa iyong darating na kaarawan ang mas masiglang pangangatawan at makapiling ka pa namin sa mga darating mo pang kaarawan. Happy Mother’s day din po sa iyo

Sa lahat po ng nanay, inang, mama, mommy o paano man kayo tawagin happy mother’s day po sa inyo.

Maligayang Huwebes sa lahat!

Ang ibang lahok po pala sa linggong ito ay makikita dito

If my mom made sinigang to make me feel better, hubz brought this home last night. Awww sweet naman. Thanks labs. Your sweet goodies made me feel much much better. Kaya nga ako nakapasok na sa work today.

One more thing, husband and I had a very relaxing massage at a newly open massage spa near our office (he paid for it too ). Grabe super sarap and relaxing. After getting sick, I am now pampered with lots of love and affection. I’m so blessed with such loving people around me.

Hachooo…

sneezy, sneezy..It really feels terrible when you got cough and colds and to make things worse you got flu. That’s what I have right now so Im stuck here at home and since hubz can’t skip work for a very important meeting, my ever loving mom is there to take care of me….parang they are superhero to the rescue

I found this old picture from my photobucket. It made me want to have this for dinner. But since I cannot do some cooking today (but I can blog, yeah), asked mom to cook this for dinner. I cant wait. Mom knows that this soup will make me feel well, it always work for me.

Our moms surely are heaven sent noh?

Sa pagpatay ng ilaw at pag lisan ng lugar, katahimikan ang mananatili at kalungkutan ang humihiyaw

Makata yata ako sa linggong ito hehehe…Sa kadahilanang ang tema sa LitratongPinoy ay Malungkot, ito ang naisipan kong isali

Ang larawang nasa taas ay tabiki o pader na nakatapat sa aking cubicle. Oo isang pader ang nasa harapan ko sa buong walong oras sa opisina…Mapakalungkot di ba? Wala kang makausap at wala kang matanaw na iba. Pakiramdam ko ako’y nag iisa lalo na pag oras na ng pananghalian, sa pag patay ng ilaw, tahimik at lalong nagpapatahimik dahil sa pader/tabiki na humaharang sa karamihan. Tanging mga anino na lamang ng pinto ang kasama at kaulayaw. Gayunpaman, mayroon din naman napapadaan sa aking lugar upang ako’y batiin ng magandang araw. Ngunit sa pag usad ng kanilang paa papunta sa pintuan, muli na naman akong mag isa…hay kalungkot talaga.

Hindi bale… may maganda rin naman siyag naidudulot pag ako’y maraming ginagawa, mas marami naman akong natatapos dahil ang payapa at tahimik na tabiking ito ang aking kaulayaw habang ako’y gumagawa.

Mga kaibigan at kasama bagamat ang tema natin ay Malungkot tayo po ay magkaroon ng maligayang Mayo Uno at masayang LP

It was only last year when I discovered that I love baking. Wherefore I’ve baked a lot lately that brought my tummy a little bigger hehehe (buti na lang I go to the gym). Last month I made banana chocolate round cake, it taste well but it was so tiring to prepare. So I decided to stick to cupcake baking, easier to do and little mess to clean, hehehe.

This afternoon, I made red velvet cupcake. Hubz love it. It was absolutely good. It tastes like yellow cake but with a kiss of chocolate. I’ve posted the recipe here. Just in case you wanted to try, please visit my othe blog. Oh It’s another week again..do have a great week everyone

Beer, hotdog bits and coffee…

One evening when hubz was so damn serious infront of the laptop working some stuffs, I, was left alone watching the tv and sipping a cup of black coffee, I then notice that he has not been talking to me for hours. Uh-ohhh….again for the nth time, I told hubz in a childish manner…. wish I was a laptop, I just can stand it when he is so focus with his slim machine (yeah..yeah…sometimes I am too like that but hey, I still talk to him). So instead of huffing, I pop a can of SanMig Light and prepare the hotdogs for him. At first he refuses to have the beer because he was still full from the late dinner we had but I insisted. After a few minutes, while relishing the beer and the hotdogs, he quit the laptop seriousness thing and joins me in watching the tv hehehe….

It never fails….my charm of course right hubz…
once again I rule!!!

Nang nakaraang linggo, binahagi ko sa inyo ang isang silid ng tanggapang aking pinapasukan, ngayong naman nais kong ibahagi sa inyo ang anyo ng gusaling ito bilang lahok sa ika-4 na Litratong Pinoy na may temang Hugis ay Pahaba.

Ito ang mukha o harapan (facade) ng opisinang aking nabanggit. Ang harapan ng gusali ay me desenyong pahaba na kung saan ikinasa ang mga salaming hugis pahaba din. Hindi gaanong kagandahan ang istraktura, dahil ito ay me kalumaan, kaya naman murang nabili ni Misis ito.

Nang nakaraan taon, buwan ng Setyembre lamang kami lumipat sa nabanggit na gusali. May mga kwento kwento mula sa kalapit na establisyemento na mayroon daw nagpapakita dito. Hmmmm….nakakapangilabot nga kung seseryosohing isipin pero sa aking palagay, kaya lamang nila nasabi iyon dahil matagal na ring walang umuokopa dito at ito ay dating maliit na ospital. Ang mga haka-hakang ganyan ay normal lamang na binabanggit sa kahit sinong bagong lipat, hindi ba?. Ako ay 7 buwan na naglalagi sa gusaling iyan ngunit wala pa naman akong nakikita at wala akong balak makita sila, hehehe.

Maligayang Huwebes sa lahat

I didnt come to work today. I felt I was at my lowest now. Not that I am not satisfied with anything regarding work, I love my work. But sometimes, things that happening within the premises affects me somehow.

So decided to have a leave today and hoping for a much nicer atmosphere tomorrow.

Above emptied glass belongs to hubz. He had a thirst quenching iced green tea at country style, our favorite coffee shop and tambayan. Actually, there’s nothing special with the green tea they offer, it’s the average nestea drink, what makes this coffee shop special (aside from the brewed coffee I so loved) is that people who administer it are so amiable and very accommodating, makes us keep coming back.

Do you have any favorite tambayan. Care to share. Who knows, I might have home no. 2

Ang larawang nasa itaas ay kuha sa aming departamento sa opisina. Isang araw na ako’y naapaga ng pasok at wala pang ibang ka-opisina na dumating, napag isipan kong kuhaan ng isang litrato ang mga pansahig na baldosa (floor tiles). Ito ang aking lahok para sa LP sa ikatlong Linggo na may temang “4 na kanto.” . Ang isang baldosa ay sadyang me apat na kanto, datapwat mayroon din namang ibang desenyo na kakaiba ang hugis, ngunit ang ginamit sa aming suelo o sahig (floor) ay yung mga ordinaryong hugis na parisukat. Ang mga baldosang pinagkabit ay may apat na kanto hindi ba ?

Kung makikita nyo lamang ang kabuuan ng aming opisina, alam ko hindi nyo mawawari kung kayo ay mamamangha o matatawa dahil, iba’t ibang kulay at kombinasyon ang ginamit. Ipagpatawag nyo po lamang dahil nakaligtaan ko kunan ng larawan ang buong lugar ng aming tanggapan. Sa akin palagay (at sa palagay rin ng iba kong ka departameto) medyo labis ang naisip na desenyo ni Misis, may-ari ng gusali at ingat-yaman na rin ng tanggapan na aking pinapasukan . Ito raw ay gawang sining. O sige pagbigyan na… sabagay sa kanya naman ang gusali at kami ay mga empleyado nya. Kaya heto sa tuwituwina pag kami ay naiinip dito sa opisina, sulyapan lang naming ang mga baldosang ito kami ay napapangiti na.

Right when I feel so enervated endeavoring work load, glancing outside the window office causes me alleviation in seeing this lovely sight. I just cannot help took a picture. So serene and true. Thank God for such lovely creation.

Now…Im ready to work again. With my cup of coffee with me, I am more relax and my brain is working now

Its Friday once again..clap clap.

I had made plans on what to do over the weekend with hubz. Cannot wait for Friday indeed.
But as I was dreaming of being on bed the whole Saturday and watch the vcds we bought, my officemate (and friend too) handed me these.

Working during the weekend? Oh no..it can’t be!!!

Though I will be earning some extra, I qualm not saying no to him (peace pare, tatapusin ko to, hehehe). Hmmm guess, I will be stuck home infront of my laptop and finish everything for Tuesday submission. Thus, I will be busy for the moment. wahhhhh!!!!

Hmmmm…ok ok…I’ll look on the brighter side, after finishing everything, I’ll be paid and I can go shopping…yeah yeah..that’s it. Be positive, have the motivation.

For now, Let’s all have a wonderful weekend however we spend it.

Huwebes na naman. Nagtipon tipon na naman ang mga litratista sa LP, upang ipamalas ang kanikanilang napiling konsepto para sa linggong ito na mayroong temang tatlo ang sulok ko.

Moog ng kapilya

Ang larawang ito ay kuha ko mula sa bakuran ng aking mga magulang. Ito ang moog para sa batingaw (bell tower). Sa kasalukuyan, inaayos ito. Noon kasi ito ay gawa sa kahoy lamang ngunit ngayon, ito ay yari na sa bato, mas matibay ngayon. Ipagpaumanhin ninyo kung hindi ko siya nakuhaan ng magandang anggulo. Ngunit kita pa rin naman yung tatlong sulok na kinalalagyan ng krus.

Ngayon po kung nais ninyong sumali, i-klik nyo lang yung buton sa gawing kanan upang dalhin kayo sa site ng LP.

Magandang Huwebes sa lahat.

Ang init di ba?

It’s nice to go swimming. Have you gone swimming na ba? As I’ve mentioned we already did, so my color now is hmmmm….tan. Some of my officemates hated my color. Hindi daw bagay. Some said naman they love my tan skin. Oh well…I really don’t care if they don’t like my tan (they call me baluga nga eh) and thank you to those who appreciated it. What important is, I am enjoying summer 2008.

Hovewer, we should be armed with these

1. Moisturizing lotion. Aveeno lotion is a nice product indeed
2. sunscreen spf50 (from the faceshop). I used this daily on my face. To combat the damaging UV ray.
3. my daily moisturizing cream from the faceshop. I love this product.
4. Vaseline sunblock spf 30. Sobrang mahal kasi yung ibang brand so I opted to buy this. This sunblock is so useful and of course, I bought some summer stuffs to make me more comfortable.

We cannot do anything to change the heat so let’s just enjoy the summer, love the beach, the pool, have a glass of iced cold water, go to razon and have a tall glass of halo-halo (the best) or eat ice cream if you want. Let’s all be thankful that we have summer here to enjoy all these things right.
