Baking Mood?

~~ For some reason i am in the baking mood
these days..ahh!
i don't bake much on summer, well,who'd
yah think LIKE to warm your house on summer right?

anyways.

when you get more than 10 inches of snow.
you don't drive.
and your house is cold though you try
to turn up the heat..

solution? BAKE and BAKE some more.
I do like when the house warms because there's
something good cooking in the oven,
and the house smells yum too :)

The pound cake as usual is from a fabulous box.
but hey! My Pecan Pie, is totally from scratch..
oh well, at least the filling huh?
Not that i didn't try to make my own dough, trust me!
I tried and somehow lose my patience and mind ha hah.
I am sure not the most person bless with patience,
so I asked a little help from store and that surely not harm anybody,
right ladies?

I am so new in the world of baking,
i also not like any complications and too much ingredients.
i want my life to be a little easy, but be able to enjoy
some freshly bake goodies...

have a yummy day :)

CRICUT AND WINTER PROJECTS :)

~~Okay, my mom-in-law gave me a cricut on Christmas
of 2007, i know! i never touch it..
and honestly, i haven't been updating my scrap-book
for who knows when....

but since we are in the process of moving, going through
with stuff and try to get rid some is just a nightmare..

anyways.

i found my cricut!and while taking a break the other day,
i managed to read the manual and used it :)

it is indeed pretty cool :)

you'll see my very first project, just the lettering though!
but looks pretty nice right?
this is one good project especially on winter,
coz most of the time you just want to stay home
when like here in Wisconsin you're blessed easily
with 10 inches of snow just like that..(no complains amen)

not bad for a first try huh?

i am loving my cricut already :)

**i got the very first version/model of it, smaller and i think
though am not sure, no lower case in the cartridge :(
i still love it though :)

My Cranberry Orange Bread + tea + MOVIE = TGIF

~~ well, don't let me fool you, that bread is from
the fabulous box of betty crocker ha hah.
it turn out to be good, though I learn some tricks
in baking from Giada (foodnetwork)...
like an orange cake, to make it more flavorful,
instead of using water, substitute it with orange juice,
or even use a little bit of orange zest, it all depends
of course, on what flavor are you using.....

Thank God its Friday, it funny because I don't even work (yet)
but hey! Friday is good...means weekend..already? ha hah.
For some reason I love giving my self a relaxing day
every Friday, I am in movie mode today because
my VIDeoke/ karaoke is not working...so bummer!
i love to sing on Fridays, i don't know..
sort of celebrating that weekend is here I guess...

on friday, I wake up Ozzie normally earlier like,
6:30-7:30, somewhere there, i clean the house
(naks kala mo totoo) I have been doing this routine
for a few months now, and with lots of prayers,
and motivation, (wag sana mausog, may usog ako,
baka mausog ko sarili ko ha hah, baliw!)
I am doing really well....hooray to me LOL!

1pm, that's Ozzie's nap time, and he'll nap
mostly 2-3 hours, which gives me time to enjoy
a nice lunch, watch one movie, have a nice dessert,
or whatever snack, or sometimes just a cup of real
good coffee or tea....
I even put a little make-up and dress-nicely
as if I am in the movie house...ha hah..
am crazy that way...oh well...
I love my self..and that's important :)

and of course, after 3 hours, back to the real world,
back to sweat pants and do your hair whatever is comfy!
love.love.love. life.


Winter is officially here......

~~ yesterday is actually not our "first day of snow", it was
the second time, we had about an inch on Thanksgiving day,
but thank God, the day became clearer as we headed to Ohio...

its somewhat a mixed emotion everytime I see a snow,
its funny how you heard a lot of people says,
oh no! so not ready for snow yet...
it looks undeniably pretty outside, but it also
means that road is slippery and for some maybe
a little hard to drive on the road...
well, at least that's what I've heard from some
of my Pinay friends here...
but you know, you gotta do what you gotta do,
and you gotta go wherever you needed to go :)

and in the picture, that's not our car by the way,
that's my mom-in-law's car, jeff didn't get a chance
to take it to her house yet, coz he is so extremely busy..
poor car..ha hah..am sure it misses its garage...
where it can be safe and sound and cozy :)

All About Orange (scent)




I love the smell of anything orange, I am not a big fan
of the fruit orange but the smell of it especially the zest
just makes me feel refreshing, i love the freshly squeeze
orange juice though...

here in the picture you can see a Nivea's Touch
of Happiness moisturizing body wash,
in orange blossom scent and bamboo essence ...
for me, its smells crazy good
my sister bought it at walmart and left to me
when she got back to denmark,
i found my self at one time washing my hands
over and over again..ha hah.
one of my fave actress/tv personality Kris Aquino
once said that orange
soap or anything orange can be very therapeutic...
there's something about it that
stimulates the brain waves and relaxes the body
...or at least something like that...

the other one is Burt's Bees Honey and Orange Wax body Lotion,
i don't use it in my body....just because....
but I use it ALWAYS in my super
dry hands and it works really really great...
the smell ? not so much....
but I still like it...

the orange soap, i bought on ebay it has
a very good smell of tangerine,
it doesn't giveme a lot of bubbles
but its smells good...really.

the other one was just okay,
i bought it so cheap just because
i saw the word "citrus splash"
which screams "orangie" to me..ha hah...
crazy purchase, again i use
it every night in my hand or every trip
i made in my bedroom... LOL...yup,
i have a very dry hands because
I don't know how many times i wash dishes every day...
or wash my hands after I touch something...
i am good at washing my hands, or just
simply using a hand sanitizer, and yes,
swine flu will totally sooo hate me and I love that :)

there you go...

btw, my sister just mention to me about
Nivea's Orange Body Lotion
which am dying to find out where i can buy it...
anybody knows?
(as if i am pretending that someone else
reading my blog..boo-hoo me! ha hah)
but if its not available here she has
to send me one..ha hah...
whether she like it or not...

ahhh...orange my love.

Steak Night! (late post)

~~ MY DINNER--
I like my steak medium-rare
I like my potato cooked in white wine,olive oil
with a little bit of parsley and parmesan cheese.
I like my asaparagus roast in olive oil or
grilled, but too much dishes already,
so i just had the steamed one..ha hah.




~~JEFF'S DINNER --
he likes his steak medium rare.
he likes his potato baked. (and top it with sour cream & bacon bits)
and steamed asparagus.

What's not to love about Michael Buble???? ---SUper Love tha "Haven't met you yet"

~~ This would be a good song for me and my hubby
i thought the "haven't met you yet" defines
that there are so many things that you'll discover
about someone..or someone you love...
if you only give your self a chance to experience
every single moment with your love one...
like for me, my husband...

i love the part:

"And I Know That We Can Be So Amazing
And Baby Your Love Is Gonna Change Me
And Now I Can See Every Possibility

And Somehow I Know That It Will All Turn Out
And You'll Make Me Work So We Can Work To Work It Out
And I Promise You Kid I'll Give So Much More Than I Get
I Just Haven't Met You Yet"...



My Movie Day :)

~ THE PROPOSAL~

Plot
On the verge of being deported and losing the high-powered job she lives for, the controlling Margaret announces she's engaged to her unsuspecting, put-upon assistant Andrew. After proposing a few demands of his own, the mismatched couple heads to Alaska where they have four short days to convince his quirky family and a very skeptical immigration agent that their charade is real.

***LOVE,LOVE,LOVE THIS MOVIE!!! As in super hilarious, though
the ending is guess so okay..but all in all....it is a movie
that totally crack you up! Sandra and Ryan..so natural when
it comes to romance-comedy...go ahead and see it!! winner!




~GHOST OF GIRLFRIENDS PAST~


Plot
Connor Mead is the kind of guy who dumps three girlfriends. At the same time. By teleconference. So when he attends his brother’s wedding he has a single goal: score with the only bridesmaid he somehow missed. But the ghost of his departed Uncle Wayne –who taught him to love ’em and leave ’em – has another goal in mind: restore Connor’s lost faith in true love.

** this movie is just an OK for me, there were scenes that I thought
was really slow, definitely not what I expected...
but i thought Jennifer Garner is so cute as always.
i am not really a fan of matthew sorry....

Satay :)

~~ okay, when we were at the store,in an international isle
i saw this called satay mix or something like that,
it kinda reminded me of Thai food, so i got it and thought
i'll give it a try....it wasn't that bad...its just not
what I expected, it needed a little seasoning but I guess
it meant to be like that because it comes with a sauce..

i thought the picture turn out quite good..
so...its worth posting..he heh..
my hubby likes it though...
i gotta eat it...with rice..as usual...

DEFINITION :
Satay or sate (pronounced /ˈsæteɪ/ SA-tay) is a dish consisting of diced or sliced chicken, goat, mutton, beef, pork, fish, tofu, or other meats; the more authentic version uses skewers from the midrib of the coconut leaf, although bamboo skewers are often used. These are grilled or barbecued over a wood or charcoal fire, then served with various spicy seasonings.

My Movies

17 AGAIN


17 AGAIN

If you somehow had the chance, would you do your life over? Thirtysomething Mike O’Donnell would. Then one mysteriously magical moment, Mike gets his chance. He’s suddenly back at Hayden High where he’s the star of the basketball team, a total hottie, and a classmate to his own teenage kids…which gives Mike a chance to go from not-so-good dad to really cool friend.

~ what can I say? well of course, the fact that Zach here was
ridiculously hot, it is a good movie. I like it a lot :)
.... it ended good...good moral i guess....



I LOVE YOU, MAN

Plot
In this wildly funny hit comedy, Paul Rudd gets engaged to the girl of his dreams but has not a single guy friend to be his Best Man until he meets the ultimate dude, Jason Segal. Rudd and Segal’s “bro-mance” takes male-bonding to hilarious new heights that keep you laughing until the unforgettable last frame.

~ I kinda like this movie, i have seen this a while ago
and honestly could not remember if i like it or not bwa hah.
i was trying to recall movies that I watched just because..
there was for sure some funny scenes (like the farting scene when they
were in an open-house) i thought that was hilarious!
plus i like Paul Rudd...i think he's pretty awesome :)
i like him as well in his movie "Role Model"..

MOvie Day (on weekend) ~ SUNSHINE CLEANING~

---
SUNSHINE CLEANING--

Plot
Desperate to get her son into a better school, single mom Rose (Amy Adams) persuades her slacker sister Norah (Emily Blunt) to join her in the crime scene cleanup business to make some quick cash. But underneath the dust and grime they also come to discover a true respect for one another, and create a brighter future for the entire Lorkowski family. Rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for language, disturbing images, some sexuality and drug use. Widescreen.


---i didn't exactly like it but this kind of movie is something that
you can relate like it can really exist in real situation..
like yah know, someone struggling finding a good job that pays good,
being a single mother, and other stuff...
and there were some funny scene and dialogue of course..

my fave:

1. what a father love can do for a struggling daughter.
2. your sister can be your best friend.
3. you'll always find a goodness in people's heart (winston character)
4. when oscar (the little boy) opened his gift on his birthday
5. when the business grew and the job became like its really a good gig and pays good
6. having a kid in the family seems gives everyone a sense of joy :)
7. letting go of someone (who doess not see our value) is sometimes the best gift we could ever give our self.
8. no matter what we do, its our life, no one is entitle to question or make you feel that your nothing because of what you do.

The Two Wolves Within

An old Cherokee told his grandson
‘Two wolves rage within us,

One is Evil, it has many names:
Anger, envy, jealousy,
Sorrow, regret, greed,
Arrogance, self-pity, guilt,
Resentment, inferiority, lies,
False-pride, superiority and ego.

The other is Good, it has many hues:
Joy, peace, love, hope,
Serenity, humility, kindness,
Benevolence, empathy, generosity,
Truth, compassion and faith.’

The grandson thought for a minute
And asked: ‘Which Wolf wins?’
The Cherokee simply replied:
‘The one you feed

Harvest Day!

after my last post, i actually felt a little guilty as this one is all about our "harvest day", we are blessed with a lot of tomatoes this year and of course lots of Thai peppers, which i love and pretty much use with everything, i mean, there were meals that i cooked that ozzie eats as well, and that mean i cannot make it spicy, so what i do, is match it with fish sauce and lots of chillies in my meal time, in that way i will have the desire spicyness that i wanted...

we also have a few veggies, we started late this year, so next year, we planned to hopefully start sooner, but still, jeff did a really good job..and I am so enjoying our organic vegetables...





~ We had a lot of green beans this year, but it is a little different,
from the store, but still, its organic and of course healthy..




~ TOMATOES AND MORE TOMATOES, SO DELICIOUSLY SWEET..





~ MY HUBBY SAYS ITS CALLED :LEMON BOY TOMATO--it is really yellow
it does taste like its sort of a lemon flavor, very refreshing :)




~ GREEN BEANS -- just simply sautee it in garlic & olive oil




~ LOTS OF JALAPENO PEPPER, GREAT FOR JEFF'S HOME MADE SALSA!




~ ZUCCHINI, CUCUMBER AND CHERRY TOMATOES--
- i love the cucumber & cherry tomatoes in my salad..

don't you hate doing stuff you really don't wanna do???

don't you hate doing stuff you really don't wanna do???

but you have no choice so do it anywayz...and just close your eyes and see the positive and beautiful side of it.....and started being grateful kahit pa na labag na labag sa loob mo...

that's how i felt yesterday, sunday, didn't even make it to church, but i love that i was able to talk to my fabulous sister and loving brother, but the connection was so annoying, its either, they couldn't hear me, there was something wrong with my headset, or my brother will just got disconnected....then my sister will lost the signal or something and got diconnected....oh well, at least to talked to them for a little bit is always been a great treat...

then in the afternoon, jeff made a salsa, i mean, he made a really really good one, post picture soon, with matching freshly deep fried chips, so good! but i couldn't take the mess he made sometimes, that was really a pain...left everything out for me to clean up....
oh well....suck it all in, and rather than complaining, just started working my ass off, cleaning up, who else will do it anyways...

sunday, is my kind of relaxing day, i pretty want to give my self a break on sunday, as in just doing the basic things like, cleaning up and a little bit of cooking is my thingie on sunday...MOVIES, is the highlight of my sunday, that if, we plan just to stay home. If we are going some place, then movie can be put aside, that's ok...

Because sometimes if you spend almost your whole day out, you pretty much just want to have a relaxing evening....or..still watch a real good movie...lol..movie again of course..

Anyways.


Later that afternoon around 3pm, jeff said, not asked, announced I guess, (my step daughter were here) that we are all going to clean up the yard later that afternoon...i looked at him, and told him, i really don't feel of doing that....and he start his lithany of this and that and really hurt my freaking ears and he totally pissed me off, so I said I will take a nap in an hour, and I'll go out there ok?? but for now, I was up early and needed my "power nap"..comprehende?? and so I headed to the bedroom, found a good movie "boomerang" and there goes my nap....heheh..i couldn't sleep anyway..

as soon as my step daughter hears we are going to clean up the yard, herself made her way out, that she said "she needs to go babysit" who knows where...and who knows who..jeff didn't even bother asking, oh she said someone, like her mom's boss' kid or something...who knows...its really kinda hard to tell if she's telling the truth or not sometimes...but really, none of my business...i feel bad for my hubby and mother in law because, that's really brothering them, it bothers me because it bothers jeff, that's all....

oh well, after an hour. I went out (my baby is napping in case you're wondering heheh)jeff is not in the yard, guess where is he? on the couch, sleeping like a baby...

i didn't wake him up, ha ha ha..celebrate! so I start making dinner, and its getting chilly out, and also getting dark, so this is going good, no yard cleaning today...6pm? I tried to wake him up, and tell yah, jeff is probably the hardest person to wake up...i mean....seriously...he just looked at me, says ah what? his eyes half open then he went back dreaming i guess...

so I feed my baby, i woke him up, told him its almost 7pm and asked if he is hungry, he had a late snack around 4pm, and sometimes he doesn't want to eat if it was a big snack, he just want something light in the evening...asking me? I made spaghetti for dinner, but I really feel of eating sardines...since I haven't had it for a while, so i went to the kitchen and made my self a fresh rice...yum, with the spicy sardines.

so there was my night, when Jeff finally got up at 8pm, he still headed to the garden and get the rest of the green unripe tomatoes and some rotten ones,that we have put in the boxes a day before and left out there,since we didn't finish and the weather is nice anyways, because he wanted to get the seeds out of it....and me watching the VMA....with oz..

he asked me to do this and that...i said later, during commercials. yeah, gotta watch the VMA of course!!...i went to the kitchen just to find this massive mess AGAIN, don't you hate cleaning someone else's mess....#@!^%$%!!!!!!

grrr...i just wanted a relaxing night....but i hate waking up with the dirty kitchen or sink...do i really have a choice? NO. as on 0% chance.

I married someone who is a good cook, but men oh men, didn't realize it will take me 15 minutes to eat the fabulous meal WHEN he cooks or prepared but it will take me 2 hours to clean up his mess....okay...exaggeration..

but don't you hate it??? my point is, we all get our not-so-good-not-in-the-mood-days
and here's one of those days...and i just want to scream on the top of my lungs...literally!

on wanting something (but at this moment can't have it yet)

~ jeff and i went to some garage sale on weekends whenever we get a chance,though its funny that we are not looking for any particular thing, anything that caught our eye or we see something interesting and if it is a good deal we take it. So far we haven't got anything except for the fact knowing that most of these houses are for sale. And there's like a sad stories behind it...well, not all of them but some are...the last place that we went at was in a very quiet, nice neighborhood, very private. The man is very friendly and he talked to Jeff for a while which i didn't mind because they have this big yard and there was a couple of horses, and my son Ozzie was just so happy to see the horses...
I took a few pictures of the back yard, the horses and the drive way..no picture of the house ...and i like it because I like the privacy...the quietness, yet there are neighbors and houses are pretty close to each other, not some like your living in the middle of nowhere...no way.

i want to own a really nice home. not so big. just big enough for kids with minimal, basic things that needed for everyday life.

but for now i will keep dreaming about it, hoping and praying that if I stay good enough (maybe) all my wishes will be granted, that is if it meant to be...

Michael Jackson Medley - Remembering Michael (AJ Rafael - Piano)

~I still can't wrap my head about what happened to Micheal Jackson.
I just love a lot of his songs and his performances in his
show was just amazing!
It was just shocking and .....
i just don't know what to say...

"To MJ : Your music will live in Our Hearts Forever.
Thank you for sharing your amazing talent to the whole
world. You inspired a millions of artist.
You will surely be missed.
You are a legend.

"What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget."


A special thanks to AJ, who posted this beautiful tribute to Michael Jackson.
this video really made me cry :( and really touched my heart.
And please support him,check out his videos on youtube!

when i miss home...

i do like sardines... a lot!
and for some reason everytime i open a can
of sardines, and that's normally happens
if i am too lazy to cook or not in the mood
to cook anything...or just simply want to have
that "taste of home"...

this particular LIGO brand is my fave, although
i also like some other fancy one in a jar
like said from Cebu, oh! so yummy!

but this one reminds me of childhood...
my father.my mother. ( lagi ko request ang miswa)
our life back then.
our home.
rainy days in pinas...
or kung may bagyo pa nga.
my friends. (who loves to partner it with payless noodles, then coffee,
kahit pa 100 degrees ang weather. lol)

basta.

i love it.

when my sister came to visit us, and btw. she's a fabulous chef, cook
i always see her having this tomato,onions (vidalia),jalapeno like
a side dish or what not, in her meal ...well, it depends on what she eats or
what we ate that day...and when i had it with sardines, it actually
pretty awesome, i like it!

now, i have to make sure i have these trios, before i open a can,
coz i feel, it isn't the same or not-so-complete if one is missing :)

and yes. i love the red can. the filipino version of i guess spicy.
mildly spicy. but not-spicy for me..at all.
but ...i just like it.

GOOD LUCK RACKIE!

I had a really good talk with my step daughter Rackie
last night...as I wished her Good luck for American Idol
Audition...

I am so positive that She will absolutely do amazingly well.

She is a good singer.

And She knows we are all here cheering Out loud for her!

So my dear, Good Luck and this will be a Fabulous Experience for you :)

With all Our love!!

p.s.

i also sent her a text message:

Good Luck to the best sister in a whole wide world!
Your number one fan, your baby brother, Ozzie

I had an idea because when Rackie was singing
in karaoke, Ozzie loves to listen to her..
and its a joy to watch..so i guess as a mother
I just put it into words for her to know :)

i have something for you...

~ i have something for you...
eto ang bungad sa akin ni hubby kamakailan lang.
oh dear, i totallly love surprises. (right kat?)
so sabi ko...what is it?

at nilabas nya ang plastic ng 3 manggang hinog (from his lunch bag)
alam nyo yun, parang plastic pa nga sa atin sa Pinas
(yung pang-isang kilo)
sabi nya....bigla kitang naalala nung nakita ko to eh
(sinabi nya sa english siyempre he he)
nag-deposit lang sya ng sahod nya, (may bangko sa loob ng grocery store)
at namataan nya nga itong
mga mangga na para bang kumakaway daw ( as in with matching "wave" action yan ha)

aww...na touch naman ako sa sweetness ni hubby ever...

saya ng life.

i love LOVE. (LOVE ko sya kung tawagin)


can i handle you? (doubtful)

~ i am really a wedge kinda gal, pumps ba ito?
i tried. pero di masayadong ma-carry eh.
but i love this one :(
but i know i have to let her go...
coz i will not be happy just staring at her..(for sure)
as a mommy of a toddler, i honestly trying to EMBRACE the comfort
of flats and sneakers. oh well...

maliit kasi ako, ilusyon ko na lang a 3- 3 1/2" na heels
para feeling 5"3-- but all in all. I am grateful sa height ko (no more complains)

Chocolate cake with chocolate icing

If all of the eight desserts listed below were sitting in

front of you, which would you choose (sorry, you can only

pick one)! Trust me...this is very accurate.. Pick your

Dessert, and then look to see what psychiatrists think about

you.

REMEMBER - No Cheating. Make your choice before you check

the meaning.

After taking this dessert personality test, send this e-mail

on to others, but when you do, be sure to put your choice of

dessert in the subject box above.



ALSO, SEND IT TO THE PERSON WHO SENT IT TO YOU. DON'T

FORGET TO CHANGE YOUR DESSERT CHOICE IN THE SUBJECT BOX
BEFORE YOU FORWARD IT..


Here are your choices:


1. Angel Food Cake

2. Brownies

3. Lemon Meringue Pie

4.. Vanilla Cake With Chocolate Icing

5. Strawberry Short Cake

6. Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Icing

7. Ice Cream

8. Carrot Cake

No, you can't change your mind once you scroll down, so

think carefully about what your choice will be.



OK - Now that you've made your choice, this is what the

researchers say about you.... SCROLL DOWN---No Cheating










1. ANGEL FOOD CAKE -- Sweet, loving, cuddly. You love all

warm and fuzzy items.. A little nutty at times. Sometimes you

need an ice cream cone at the end of the day. Others

perceive you as being childlike and immature at times.



2... BROWNIES -- You are adventurous, love new ideas, and are

a champion of underdogs and a slayer of dragons. When

tempers flare up you whip out your saber. You are always the

oddball with a unique sense of humor and direction. You tend

to be very loyal.



3. LEMON MERINGUE -- Smooth, sexy, a diva at times..
You are an excellent caregiver and a good teacher.

You set your own style because you do your own thing.
You shine when it comes to helping others and have many
friends. Natural leader, loyal, spontaneous. Love to laugh.



4. VANILLA CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE ICING -- Fun-loving, sassy,

humorous, not very grounded in life; very indecisive and

lacking motivation.. Everyone enjoys being around you, but

you are a practical joker. Others should be cautious in

making you mad. However, you are a friend for life.



5. STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE -- Romantic, warm, loving. You care

about other people, can be counted on in a pinch and expect

the same in return. Intuitively keen. You can be very

emotional at times but a true person in every way. You like

to do things for yourself and help others learn about

themselves.



6. CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE ICING -- Sexy; always ready

to give and receive. Very creative, adventurous, ambitious,

and passionate. You can appear to have a cold exterior but

are warm on the inside. Not afraid to take chances. Will not

settle for anything average in life. Love to laugh.



7. ICE CREAM -- You like sports, whether it be baseball,

football, basketball, or soccer. If you could, you would like

to participate, but you enjoy watching sports. You don't

like to give up the remote control. You tend to be

self-centered and high maintenance.



8. CARROT CAKE -- You are a very fun loving person, who

likes to laugh. You are fun to be with. People like to hang

out with you. You are a very warm hearted person and a

little quirky at times. You have many loyal friends.. You

were meant to lead and teach others. A wonderful role model.

eh mag water, at kung anuman yung madali like mag-alis ng patay
na damo, bungkal here and there, hayun....masaya na sya.saka siyempre
ako taga-kain so kelangan magpakitang gilas din kahit pano
para di saktan ng tyan he he he.

anywayz. wala naman kasing magandang on sa tv pag weekends.
and marami akong naririning tungkol sa moving Twilight.
ewan ko ba kung ano pumipigil sa akin lagi namang available kung
gustuhin ko mang i-rent...so hayun na nga...

RETURN TO POOH CORNER

- I first heard this song when i was 23,
it was break time and I heard my preschooler,
His name is William.
and he sung it so good and i actually asked him
to sing it again. It was the chorus part.
I just fell in love with the song.
Since then it was one of my ultimate fave.
Thanks William.

It also remind me how simple our life back then
when we were a child,
how simple our dreams...
how simple things made us laugh and felt happy,
made us cry ..
NOW...we all grow, learn and
make choices as a grown-up.

Not always easy.
But we all try to enjoy the jouney.
Like how we used to enjoy the journey and memories of childhood.

There's something about the song that made me feel
that we all can be a child at heart.

It was a pretty amazing feeling.

And of course I want to share to you all my fave quote from Winnie the Pooh.

“If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together.. there is something you must
always remember.

You are braver than you believe,
stronger than you seem,
and smarter than you think.
But the most important thing is,
even if we're apart.. I'll always be with you.”





Christopher Robin and I walked along
Under branches lit up by the moon
Posing our questions to Owl and Eeyore
As our days disappeared all too soon
But I've wandered much further today than I should
And I can't seem to find my way back to the Wood

So help me if you can
I've got to get back
To the House at Pooh Corner by one
You'd be surprised
There's so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh

Winnie the Pooh doesn't know what to do
Got a honey jar stuck on his nose
He came to me asking help and advice
From here no one knows where he goes
So I sent him to ask of the Owl if he's there
How to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear

Help me if you can
I've got to get back
To the House at Pooh Corner by one
You'd be surprised
There's so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh

It's hard to explain how a few precious things
Seem to follow throughout all our lives
After all's said and done I was watching my son
Sleeping there with my bear by his side
So I tucked him in, I kissed him and as I was going
I swear that the old bear whispered "Boy welcome home"

Believe me if you can
I've finally come back
To the House at Pooh Corner by one
What do you know
There's so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of Christopher Robin
Back to the ways of Christopher Robin
Back to the days of Pooh

What is the Value of an Hour?

Posted: 23 Mar 2009 11:03 PM PDT


It was almost midnight on an idle Tuesday and the hospital hallways were unusually calm. I had just finished reading an old issue of Sports Illustrated from cover to cover. “Waiting sucks,” I thought to myself. “Why didn’t I bring a book?”

As I sat quietly with my eyes closed, I could vaguely hear the soft mumbles of a verbal plea going on in the hospital room beside me. “You’ve kept him waiting long enough! My grandson is here! Oh please, let him in.” More mumbling… “Please, please… nurse, bring him to me.”

A moment later the nurse stormed out of the room and looked startled to see me waiting in the hall. “Oh, you’re here!” he yelped. “I’m sorry. I’m a hospice nurse and I’ve only been watching over your grandmother for the last 24 hours. She insisted that you were coming to visit her last night too, so she had me scouring the hospital halls looking for you to no avail. When she told me you were coming again this evening, I assumed her dementia was getting the best of her.”

“Well, I…”

He interrupted me. “But I’m really glad you’re here. I think she’s been holding on just so she could say goodbye to you. It’s actually miraculous that she’s still able to speak, because her body is rapidly shutting down on her. The doctor gave her 24 hours to live about 24 hours ago.”

“Jeez, that’s…”

He interrupted again. “Sir, once more, I’m truly sorry. I had no idea you were out here waiting. Please follow me.”

I stood up and the nurse guided me into the room. “You’re grandson is here,” he announced from the doorway. The old woman’s eye’s lit up. “Oh grace… Oh joy!” She looked right at me and smiled with all the might she had left in her weak body. “I knew you’d come.”

I sat down at her bedside and placed my hand over hers, interlocking our fingers and squeezing ever so slightly in an attempt to show affection. She squeezed back and tried to speak again, but she was too exhausted. Instead, she stared directly into my eyes and held her smile for several minutes as we continued to hold hands. Finally, she closed her eyes and rested.

For nearly an hour I didn’t move. I sat there in silence as she maintained a soft grip on my hand. Then slowly, her grip loosened and her breathing slowed. For a moment I thought she was falling into a deeper sleep, but then her breathing stopped altogether.

I let go of her lifeless hand and used the emergency call button to summon the nurse. The nurse hustled in, covered the body with a white sheet, recorded a few notes on his clipboard, and then began to offer his condolences…

“I’m really sorry for your loss,” he said. “Have you made any funeral arrangements?”

“I don’t even know her name,” I replied.

“What do you mean?” he asked. “She’s your grandmother.”

“No, she’s not,” I assured him. “Prior to stepping foot in this room, I had never met her before in my life. I’m here at the hospital waiting for my roommate who needs a few stitches on his chin.”

He looked confused. “I don’t understand. If you don’t know her, then why didn’t you say so? And why did you sit beside her for the last hour?”

I smiled. “Well, I knew immediately that she wasn’t my grandmother. But when you informed me of her life expectancy, I also knew that her real grandson wasn’t going to make it in time. So curiosity got the best of me and I followed you into the room. Then when she saw me and smiled, I realized her vision was so bad that she actually thought I was her grandson. And knowing how desperate she was to see him, I decided to play the part and spend the hour with her.”

We Determine the Value of Every Hour
Our lives are measured by the value we provide to others. This value arises from the things we spend our time doing. And since time is quantified in hours, the value of our lives is equivalent to the sum of every hour we spend.

Opportunities to provide value are everywhere. Some of them are anticipated, while others blindside us at midnight on an idle Tuesday. Whether or not we choose acknowledge these opportunities is up to us.

How have you spent the last hour of your life?

Friendship :)

twice or thrice a month.
It was my turn,actually madalas its either

sa akin dahil ako ang may baby, a lot easier for me,
dahil hindi child-proof ang mga bahay nila,at may kalikutan
ang aking precious. besides,leny is a busy single mother of 5 (imagine that!)
so in times like that we all need a break, or just simply hanging out:)
or someone needs a heart to listen to whatever this is what we normally do.
we don't go out that much, once lang yata.(nanood ng sex & d city)
dahil si leny lang ang nag-da-drive and super habang
istorya kung bakit hindi so skip ko na ang detalye :)
Ive been wanting a picture of all of us.

loving friends na si flor & jonah.
mga kaibigan ko dine.
but anyways...mula sa kaliwa:
leny-manang lily-ate divine-and who else,
the pasaway among the pasaways.
yung last picture eh deadma lang.
I tried to set up the table nicely for them.
nakalimutan ko naman picturan ang lafang namin that day:)
(dahil na rin sa excitement na lumafang na nga hahah)
at nawala na sa ulirat.
uy, na-appreciate naman nila and am super happy:)

take note! and super pink na gwantes ni manang lily hah .heheh.

To my friend Flor & Jonah:
You guys! I miss you both esp Jonah.
I always talk to flor on the phone.
We need to spend sometime guys to catch up!
Flor, bili na ng gps at lakasan na ang loob,
mag-drive papunta dine, I'll cook and super videoke if u want:)
hopefully ngayong summer, makadalaw kayo d2, i'll check the schedule
of waterski show, or kahit sana 4th of July db?

My Life Would Suck Without You (lyrics)

Guess this means you're sorry
You're standing at my door
Guess this means you take back
All you said before
Like how much you wanted
Anyone but me
Said you'd never come back
But here you are again

(Chorus)
Cuz we belong together now, yea
Forever united here somehow, yea
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

Maybe I was stupid
For telling you goodbye
Maybe I was wrong
For tryin' to pick a fight
I know that I've got issues
But you're pretty messed up too
Either way I found out I'm nothing without you

(Chorus)

Being with you is so dysfunctional
I really shouldn't miss you,
But I can't let you go,
Oh yeah

{ music break}

Cuz we belong together now, yea yea
Forever united here somehow, yea
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

Cuz we belong (yeah) together now (together now), (yeah)
Forever united here somehow, yea
You got a piece of Me And honestly
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

On eBay:

I am a buyer and seller, but most of the time buyer.

And it was great, fits me perfectly coz of detailed item description, so sabi
Hmm…ok naman pala.
Lately, may binili ako, sure it was a deal.

Pero hanggang ngayon di ko pa natatanggap yung jeans, mag 4 weeks na.
Twice ko pa lang sya na-email.

Naiinis ako sobra. Kasi ayoko. As in AYOKO, talaga mag-iwan ng negative
Feedback lalo na kung 100% yung feedback ng seller.

Ahhrrgg….

Geezz…am really good of “letting it go”, kaya lang naisip ko,
Fair bay yun? Let go ko na lang?
Eh di naman lahat ng tao tulad ko diba?
Yung iba…queberrrrrr talaga..

Pano kung dumating yung time na ako naman ang iiwanan nila
Ng negative feedback, sana naman may awa ang Diyos wag mangyari,
Dahil marunong naman ako maki-communicate.
Ewan.
Nabubuhay kasi ako sa karma,golden rule and things happens for a reason.

Alam nyo yun.—“ Matt 7:12 Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”.

I will e-mail her/him for the last time.
We’ll see…..

Pero kung ako papipiliin, let go ko na lang talaga.

Movies:

- kahit wala na akong netflix, meron pa naman kaming cable,
so may mga movie doon an gusto ko, then i just set the timer:

nitong huling linggo or buwan, i watched quite a few, i watch a movie
at least once or twice a week. adik tlaga ako sa movie.
pampa-relax ko na rin kasi. (akala mo naman kung sinong stress ano?heheh)


27 DRESSES-- so cute, i love it :) pang girlash na movie talaga. :)
my fave part eh yung lumabas sya from the club or yung party nga then sumigaw sya ng mother******!!!!hahah...i think that was awesome, kse minsan na-experience nating mga babae yun, na you are just about to explode,and needed to let it all out badly...and that's what she did :)

FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL- it was ok for me. pero nagagandahan ako dun
kay Mila kunis yata yun, yung pinalit nya kay sarah.

I COULD NEVER BE YOUR WOMAN- di ito pamilyar sa akin pero nakita ko si
michelle pfeiffer so okay naman sya. its funny!

ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS- hahah. its cute. i like it :)
gusto ko tuloy hulihin yung mga squirrel dito sa amin
at gawing pet. hahah..anh. no-way!

Movie Day (still going on Flor)

~ eto yung 2 huling movie ko for now
sa netflix, sa ngayon naka-hold
ang subscription ko dahil wala
akong budget eh. heheh.
I have chosen to spent the money with clothes,
actually jeans, dahil masyadong lumalaku ang bilbil,
at di na magkasya ang mga old jeans ko, what an excuse
to get a new clothes huh?
oh well...

ok, back to movies:

EAGLE EYE- ewan di ako fan nito, thriller nga pero,
basta, ayoko sya.

NIGHTS IN RODANTHE- maganda sana kaya lang malungkot :(

-gusto ko yung mga feeling-good movie.



Hamburger night :)

~ eto ang kay jeff (looks boring but it was good!)

5 Facts about me:

INTRO/WARNING:


Ok, here’s the warning : I am not or not considering my self
as an interesting or intelligent (definitely not!)person,
but I do love my life so much.
And I am a very grateful person.
I thought about doing this thingie about “facts about me”,
Just because, I just want to do it.

It might be sound so pathetic, but you know,
I have fun reading my diaries and anything about my own life.

Because I simply appreciate ME. That’s all.

So I will start with 5 Facts about me:

1 I am super bad in grammar, spelling and words (obviously).
Please forgive me.
If there’s one thing that I appreciate so much is that,
If someone help me correct my grammar, I always ask my mom-in-law
about it. I NEVER felt offended, because I know I need help :(

2. In Motherhood: I really take time to learn the lyrics of the songs that
My baby loves to listen to, so I can sing it to him before he goes to bed.
(though am not a good singer at all, well, that’s what good about babies,
They always think you sing like one of those American idol finalist LOL)

3. I bake when am too happy.

4. I bake when I’m a little sad like when I miss my brother
And I don’t have the phone card to call him, or if I know
Its 2am in Pinas and I can’t bug him 

5. When someone left a comments in my blog,
I write their names in my diary, with note:
“Thank You God for this person…. and so on..(about his/her comment)
Seriously.
I am always a believer that “we met people for a reason”.
And luckily, I met really good, amazing people. (through internet or in person)
You guys know who you are. For sure.
Thank you guys…
And thank You God.
