Oatmeal Diet


I will start my oatmeal diet tomorrow and I will take this one seriously. I read a lot of good reviews about it. Some lost 2 - 5 lbs. a week and I wanted to try it. I will take oatmeal twice a day and I will only take 1 rice meal a day. I hope I will get good results too. I need to lose 30 lbs.

About my no-meat diet I am quite successful to it because my tummy now is not as hard as before and I also lose in my tummy area but still it's not enough.

I will keep you all updated!!

Wish me luck!!

Saturday Out

Yesterday we went to Eastwood to meet friends but sad to say friends didn't make it. So we just spent time together.

I had my double choco frappe and pasta in Coffee Bean. Oh yes my fave coffee shop is Coffee Bean and not Starbucks. My husband and brother went to TimeZone while Gareth and I was in coffee bean. Then we had our dinner in Dencio's and my fave food in Dencio's are krispy pata, bulalo, sisig and laing.

Went to tiangge and purchased a cover ups. I like the color and the sales lady is friendly. We went home through a Cab and the driver is also a bisaya. So ayon nakipagkwentuhan pa ako.

Today, we never go out. We have works to do.

I also would like to share this picture. This was taken by my husband while I am sleeping and Gareth is trying to wake me up.

so there... until next post!!

Trying Veggies

I'm not really a veggies eater. I only eat the common veggies but since yesterday I ate carrots and asparagus. I ate it raw. I just mix it with vinegar and salt. So now I start loving veggies.













Anyway, I am also checking new laptop bag from eBay and still I can't find a perfect piece for me yet.

I also tried sending text messages to different White Beach Resorts in Puerto Galera to make reservations but until now I didn't receive any replys. :(

I hope they will respond so that I can start planning. It's a summer vacation of the whole family. It's my gift for my Mom, sister, brother and husband because they will be celebrating their birthday this summer. Isang handa na lang.

Update

- Yesterday we went out to bought some computer parts but still it's not fix.
- We let Gareth stayed in the playroom and he was enjoying it.
- I had my coffee and pasta in Coffee Bean. My fave coffee shop.
- We had our sushi at Sushiya. Yum yum!

Next Saturday is our next sched to go out to meet friends.

Interior Design

Today I am thinking of getting house interior design because next year we will be transferring to our new home. I browse online of the designs I wanted in our home.

Here are the designs I wanted...

Again.. libre ang mangarap LOL


Masters Bedroom


Gareth room. Maybe I will change the wall paper.




















Kitchen - I like the colors and the modern design. I want this design in a smaller type of kitchen because our Kitchen-to-be is quite small.

Minimalist Living Room



I want to place a rainshower in the bathroom and just keep everything simple.








Torn...

Last week when we visited Greenhills I was looking for a laptop skin something like this

but I can't find a design like this. I was so disappointed. So all I got was a keyboard protector.



I checked online and just decided to purchase it online ...
But I'm not sure if I have to purchase this bubbles laptop skin because right now our paypal money is for the laptop of my husband. We are planning of buying him a lappy because his PC is now too slow that cannot perfume any graphic application and it's affecting his work as a graphic artist. So as much as I wanted to purchase this laptop skin I have to sacrifice this time.

Hopefully, we will have an extra money to purchase it.

Wish me luck...

Goodnight!!

Still Busy

It's almost 6a.m and it's too late for me to post. I am so sleepy already. I worked for more than 12 hours today. I am still so busy for my task that is why I don't have time to post something good here.

By the way, I don't have enough time to clean my house lately so I asked my sister to come over to clean the whole house and of course I have to pay her for cleaning my house. My brother who is staying with us are also do the cleaning but still it's not satisfying. Also it's hard raising a teenager because I have to deal with him from his studies to his lovelife. I am watching him closely lately and to him I am too strict... hahay!! Let's see... ang tigas kasi ng ulo.

I'll take my rest now... more chika next time...

Is it Okay If I Call You Mine? - By Paul McCrane


Is it okay if I call you mine?
Just for a time
And I will be just fine
If I know that you know that I'm
Wanting , needing your love
Oh

If I ask of you is it all right
If I ask you to hold me tight
Through a cold, dark night
'Cause there may be a cloudy day in sight
And I need to let you know that I might
Be needing your love
Oh

And what I'm trying to say isn't really new
It's just the things that happen to me
When I'm reminded of you

Like when I hear your name,
Or see a place that you've been
Or see a picture of your grin,
Or pass a house that you've been in
At one time or another.

It sets off something in me I can't explain.
And I can't wait to see you again.
Oh, babe, I love your love
Oh
And what I'm trying to say isn't really new
It's just the things that happen to me
When I'm reminded of you

So Many Things to Share...

Today we went out to have fun. We went to different places around the metro and I will post more about it tomorrow because I am working right now and I don't want to write here while I am working.

I will be posting more tomorrow.

See you!!!

I Wish





















I wish to have beach front rest house. I love going to beach and it is always my dream to have a rest house near the beach.

I am checking online for the possible location of my rest house but I am amazed of the price. Hindi ko pa kaya.

Just an update... I finally found that person in friendster but that person don't have an account in friendster yet. I saw the pic in a friend's account. That person is someone in my past and I need to explain something but I don't know how... when and where...

Only time can tell.

All About Gareth

Mood: Proud

Since I am so busy lately I don't have an update about Gareth. Well, he is now so active and trying to be independent sometimes. He is the boss in the house and we are trying so hard not to spoil him. He loves going out but we try to control it. He love fudgee bar and gravy from Jollibee. We attended mass today then ate at jollibee and for the first time he is not seating in the high chair anymore. After eating at jollibee he asked for milk and water. Then we went to barber shop but it's all close and postpone his haircut day instead we went to Shopwise for his milk. On our way going home he fall asleep, he was so tired.

Here are some of his latest pics:

Who is She?


Me before I got pregnant. I saw this pic last night and got frustrated. I miss my old body...

I hope to look like this again soon!!!

He also added the bubbles in the header and it is so nice!! Thanks Dear!!!

Summer is here.. and I am excited of my summer getaway.

What's your plan?

Goodbye Baby Face

Everytime I saw him I really admire him. He is good in everything! I met him personally when Pia (wife of Francis M) organized an EB to visit Eat Bulaga. We had our reserved seats and no need for us to go in line just to enter the famous noon time show. It was a great event and he welcome us in the studio then picture taking after wards.

Today I woke up around 2pm and surprised about the news.

Sometimes in my life I ask what Francis looks like during his old age but it seems that I can't witness it anymore...

Goodbye Francis M.

Career Update




Finally I have two full time job. So I have to work at least 12 hours a day in 7 days. I am so happy. It is stressful but I love it. It is more stressful without a work so I am enjoying it now.

If I have lots of work there is only one thing that can take away my stress... that is a milk chocolate drink.

I want it cold... so refreshing and heaven for me. I skip coffee today just for my choco.

Okay... back to work for now..

Just an Update

No updates for quite a while because I am busy figuring my life. Last Sunday we finally decided to continue our plan of purchasing a house a lot rather than taking a condo.

So our next step is to get as many clients as we can and be a good freelancer so that our clients will like our work. We are also busy for our new online business and hopefully it will grow.

We are also limiting our expenses by not overspending in unnecessary things. We are now learning to save more.

That's all for now... I'll be back to work hmmmm maybe until 5a.m.
