Startin’ A New Life

Oh dear…it’s getting late and I’m alone here. Thanks Mr. G-post for lighting me up, it’s a bit scary down here being alone!

Your much welcome Mr. Teeny Car. I am greatful that your not scared at all, Let me shine more to make you even comfy

From that on…Mr. G-post and Mr. Teeny Car became buddies. They always see each other when the car owner do his groceries
and they live happily ever after.

Hahaha!!!! just making stories. That car is not ours by the way. I just decided to take a photo and make a story out of it. Have you tried making funny stories to entertain yourself. It’s fun and this is my way of preventing boredom (aside from shopping, tee-hee) .

So what do you do when you feel that boredom seems to hit you?!

I am happy..

why?
had a wonderful breakfast with hubz.
On leave since it’s a holiday in our US office.
Was able to bloghop and surf without the filtering as what we have at work, yebah.

I am contented…

why?
Had a glass of warm milk with raisin bread a while ago…yummy.
Had a warm shower and used the green tea cream bath, so relaxing.

I am positive…

why?
I started the day right. I know, the rest of the day will be fruitful for me.

What makes you today?

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.

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.

Got this tag from Arlene. Thanks sis!

The rules are easy:

2. Right click and SAVE the blank graphic below.
3. Use a graphics program of your choice and place your wish on this picture.

Here’s the original that you need to right click and save in your computer!

….and here is my wish

Now, It’s Alpha, Toni, Lea, May and Mama Meeya’s turn to make a wish

My head hurts while seeing the late news in one of our local channels. All are not so good news. I wanted to shout and say, enough I’m turning the television off, when the newscaster reported that Maynilad will cut this certain amount (sorry, forgot the exact figure, hmmm…as far as I can remember, it’s around 0.62php) per cubic meter in our water consumption. Finally, something to be happy of.

Methinks…the television can actually hear my plea.

Got an e-mail from SIL the other day. Her e-mail made me beam. True enough that We should be appreciative in everything that we have and we be grateful in what is happening to our lives. Though there are times when things piss us off, we should learn how to widen our sense of understanding to have this optimistic views in life.

Can’t help it but share it here. Maybe you have received this e-mail already but again, read it once more.

After reading it, what did you feel, kindly share it if you please.

I’ve read in a magazine that expressing anger is good to a person but do it in a rightful way. Breaking plates and knocking the closet door aren’t good way of expressing anger. Thank goodness I’m not like that..the throwing everything when you are mad chick.

Hubz and I do fight sometimes. I’m more on the no talks while a mad person while he patiently waits for me to discuss things that make me mad. I’m so lucky of having a very understanding husband. He surely knows how to handle my topak.

Friends do fight too. Whenever I’m into this situation, I don’t confront them while I’m raging. I stay away from them. Talk to a trusted person (hubs fits this category) and express my inner feeling. I dont just talk to somebody, don’t want things to spread out (aka chismis). Mulling it over someone safe helps me figure out less hostile, more instructive ways to express such feelings. When my thinking is in it’s right place, I return to the person who made me rage and talk about the problem.

I’ve read here how to handle anger. Basically there are 3 steps, STOP, SAY and TELL. I should start learning these 3.

I wrote those 3 words on a piece on paper and post in one of my cabinet door. If anger strikes me and forget the 3 steps, these will surely reminds me on what to do.

Everyone…do enjoy the vacation and have a blessed one too

Don’t you just love kids’ laughter? It brings back the days where I was just a little girl, doing nothing but laugh and play. Making my mom’s head aches because I don’t want to go home yet to take a bath because I’m outside playing with the girls. Times where mom is shouting in the mid afternoon because it’s time to take a nap and her promise that a yummy meryenda is waiting for me when I wake up. Hay ang sarap maging bata. Pero masarap din maging oldie kaso me sweldo at nakaka gimmick hehehe. Hay lapit na birthday ko and tanda ko na….

by the way, this is my favorite photo
