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.

still feel sad...
~ we missed the Super Bowl party yesterday because
the car won't start....i have been waiting for this day
to catch up with my other pinay friends and then just
didn't happened...sad.sad.sad.
disappointed. "shit happens" as jeff called it.
oh well, i'd like to think "things happens for a reason",
but for me who haven't been anywhere because jeff is too
busy working (even on weekends) and sometimes its hard
to be with my mom-in-law because she really does not have
the energy than she used to.
and my only friend who visits and drive down here..
i always have a hard time explaining to jeff that she's nice
and quit judging her and we always lead to arguments.
so exhausting.
i still feel sad in a way.
too lazy to do things.
i cried last night.this morning.this afternoon.
made me feel better in a way.
i had a long conversation with God too :)
we just can't have it our way all the time.
"this too shall pass"....right?
and by the way, i am sad not because of super bowl party,
or didn't get the chance to see all my friends.
i am sad. because i am sad.
and i let my self be.
just for today. tomorrow is another beautiful day.

Inauguration Day 2009
I have never been so interested with politics (yes, am not smart he he)
just because...
but last tuesday January 20th, is totally a whole different story, i was glued watching every coverage of the Inauguration Day of President Barack
Obama. And I already plan to spend my morning coz I was so dead seriously
excited about it :)
I maybe so emotional about all these because Jeff and I have been talking, discussing and planning about our future, and with the economy and the situation of every company,its just hard to make decisions, but then again, we stay Faithful to God, that He has control with everything, as we believe that President Barack Obama will definitely going to do it....
I was so moved by the event and by his speech. I mean. Every word.
The spirit of the event is just unbelievable.
A!mazing.
And of course, my most favorite part of his speech:
"We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness."
His emotional connection with the people just simply magical.
Really, the light of the new age has begun.
Wherever you are at that very moment if you witness this kind of history you'll be optimistic about the possibilities.
I love the way that he also talks and listen to everyone's soul.
The support of everyone being there, and even me sitting in the comfort of my home feels the incredible history made that day :) again, A!mazing!
And in the evening,at Inaugural Ball I love the part when President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, did their first dance,(they actually did it 9 more times) I love how he compliments his wife looking so beautiful that night and the way they look at each other, even they weren't saying a word you can feel that they sending a message to each other that " I am here for you no matter what"...
so Beautiful. so Inspiring. A!mazing.
That event makes me feel that I want to be a better person and do better things with my life.
For the first time since i got here in United States , I feel that no matter what happen,
in this very moment i know I am in right place at the right time.
God bless America.

It was good! Pizza is just not my ultimate fave…
I like it when I feel it…that’s all :)

another snow storm ~
~ok, 12"-13" of snow, it took me about 2 hours to shovel it,
that was yesterday (jan 9)... wake up at 8am today (jan 10)
look at the window while holding my cup of hot (as in!) coffee.
looks about 13"-14" of snow....i was at first questioning my self?
did i really shovel yesterday or was i just dreaming? LOL
nah, am just kidding, i don't normally watch the news but i always
make it a point to check the weather.com for info's...
but i mean...seriously....not-so-funny...ahh right?
this is one of those days that I just want to close my eyes
and thank God that I don't have to go to work every morning
and deal with this, (now I am just happy to shovel our drive way)
because just the thought of it,as stupid as
it sounds, scares the crap out of me!
and I am grateful to have a loving husband who always been
a good provider ...and all because God loves us.....
He is the source of everything....

~ ok here's the thing, I am not good with assembling stuff..
and hate it. I don't understand why can't you just buy the
whole thing already assembled. at least in Pinas you can actually
get things already made, like the cabinet and stuff, just
load it in your car (taxi,jeepney,tricycle) and that's it.
anyway, thats way different from this one, i am just talkin'
about a desk organizer, LOL i know! sound stupid
and probably for a lot of smart people, it was a piece of cake
and oh well, ok, not that difficult than i thought, but still
took me almost an hour to made this.
but for some reason, I was happy that i finally did it.
yeah without beggin' or whining about this to jeff.
small stuff.yes.no biggie.yes.not perfect.at all.yes.:)
but i'm proudie!bahaha..(excuse the tiny piece of hair huh?)lol

~ i was almost half way done when I took this pic..(boring..)
