Your reading:
All you single Roosters; it’s time to make hay while the sun shines! With both lucky stars, Xian Chi and Tian Xi in your constellation this year, it will be raining suitors from the opposite sex and you will be faced with the delightful dilemma of deciding whom to choose. Tian Xi influences your serious relationships, which signifies the possibility that you are likely to commit to a long-term relationship that could very well end up in you getting married. You also have higher odds of becoming a parent or getting a promotion. On the other hand, Xian Chi influences your more temporary relationships, which means you could get romantically involved with someone you’ve known on a platonic level so far, but the relationship is not likely to last.
Financially too there’s good news for Roosters. Your tremendous popularity and good relationships with others is likely to have positive ramifications on your income also. Rejoice, Roosters; you have the best financial luck of all the zodiacs this year. So even though it is not really your year for investment, you could and should take your chances. Go ahead and invest if any opportunity presents itself. Your good luck will surely rub off on your investments too.
You are likely to deal with disputes and gossip by arguing with others face-to-face. Going against your regular nature you will find yourself fighting with others all too frequently.

that was my rection when keon's yaya appraoched me and told me she's going to pull out a strand of dead hair. i was ok with it since i have a habit of pulling out my dead hair when bored.
what resulted from the title above when upon close inspection of the hair, i saw that it was WHITE.
OMG. white dead hair.
the dead hair i could live with, but WHITE?!?!!
i'm too you to sport white hair. no effing way.
yeah, so i made a big spectacle about it causing much confused and worried faces from my kids. i guess they were thinking that their mom has gone wacko and totally lost it.
other may think this is an overreaction over something little. i guess it is. but...
the thought of moving one step towards getting old, scares the crap out of me. seriously.
and that white strand of hair has been taking refuge in my planner. maybe as a reminder that *lagot ka yags* you are getting old.
or maybe, stress. i read somewhere that you get white hair when you're too stressed. (sige, i-justify mo pa)
oh well.
i just hope i won't see another one anytime soon.
| What Hazel Means |
 You are truly an original person. You have amazing ideas, and the power to carry them out. Success comes rather easily for you... especially in business and academia. Some people find you to be selfish and a bit overbearing. You're a strong person. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality. You are incredibly wise and perceptive. You have a lot of life experience. You are a natural peacemaker, and you are especially good at helping others get along. But keeping the peace in your own life is not easy. You see things very differently, and it's hard to get you to budge. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together. You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow. You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily. Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is. |
got this from baby center:
The BabyCenter Seven: Signs that your child loves you
| 1. Your newborn stares into your eyes — he's actually working hard to memorize your face. He doesn't understand anything else about the world, but he knows you're important. |
| 2. Your baby thinks about you even when you're not around. Between 8 and 12 months old, he'll start to scrunch his face and look around when you leave the room — and he'll smile when you return. |
| 3. Your toddler throws wicked tantrums. Nope, those screaming fits don't mean he's stopped loving you. He wouldn't be so hurt and angry if he didn't trust you so deeply. |
| 4. Your toddler runs to you for comfort when he falls down or feels sad. Kids this age may not truly understand the meaning of "I love you," but their actions speak louder than words. |
| 5. Your preschooler gives you a flower picked from the garden, a finger-painted heart, a sparkly rock, or another gift. |
| 6. Your preschooler wants your approval. He'll start to be more cooperative around the house, and he'll look for chances to impress. "Look at me!" will become a catchphrase. |
| 7. Your grade-schooler trusts you with secrets, like his first crush or his most embarrassing moment. You're his confidante, even if he shies away from your hugs in public. |
it's funny that after almost 6 years of working after college, i finally felt what monday blues stand for. well for me, that is.
it's this moment where you're raring to do things, made all the lists, wrote in your notebook for ideas etc. but your mind just wouldn't and couldn't cooperate at all.
welcome back to working haze. hehehe
finally had time to blog and really monopolize the internet connection and really call it my own. (well technically since having my own pc and cubicle already - more on that later).
just a little snippet of update before i head on home since my little boy keon's celebrating his first birthday today. but we'll have the grand celebration on saturday.
> been a working mom again for a good week already in one of the jobs i have been dreaming about before. and i'm really happy here. more relaxed, and from the looks of it, people motivate you well here and let's you do your own thing. really i have been raving the whole week. hence, the reason why i can go back to blogging again. but i don't think i can post pics as often as before though but that can be arranged when i do get my turn going online at home.
> mom's retired from the job she's been doing for more than 30 years. and from the looks of it she's quite happy with the decision. (and thank god i won't get to spend time with her almost everyday and being asked to clean clean clean. it does get tiring really to be asked to clean the same thing everyday. spending time with her and her grandkids on weekdays are good for me. hehehe but don't get me wrong, i love my mom to bits along with all the nagging and stuff, i think i should know now, i bet i'll go through that when my two boys grow up. hahaha
> still trying to move forward with the jewelries thing, although i don't have time to drop by quiapo to buy more stuff that i used up. i miss quiapo...
> and i'm overflowing with excitement that incubus will be here. the only dilemma now is where to get the moolah to pay for the tickets. anyone care to sponsor me some? hehehe
anyway, i'm off to go home and be with my kids.
more updates in the coming days... i hope..
so 2008 has begun and honestly i still have no clue what will happen this year. will there be the same drama, conflicts and stress that i went through last year or will this be the clean slate i have been waiting for?
i have read a lot of blogs and they've listed their resolutions and wishes and i thought why not go with the flow and make one too?
what have i been thankful for 2007?
> my kids are healthy and happy even after the high fevers, colds and crying spells, they come out more happy and better.
> that aishi and i still get by one day at a time even if he's the sole breadwinner, for now.
> that my family's doing ok and there's nothing to complain about.
> that some of the things i wished for, came true, in their own time.
what do i wish for this 2008?
> health, wealth and happiness - the usual :)
> that we (aishi and i) remain the good parents that we are with our two boys.
> that my two boys grow up to be the gentlemen that i am wishing they would be and still remain as my babies forever.
> that we maintain the friendships that we have and create new ones that are worth keeping, and not use them as merely connections to get what we want. we create friendships for friends and not contacts.
> materially, i/we wish that we could start purchasing our own things that in the future when we move into our new homes, there's something to put in and not just the kid's toys. :)
> that our dreams of migrating to someplace much better than here - for the kid's future. (i'm seriously losing hope in our country... sad)
> that mama and dada grow old until their golden years, just like lola honey so that they could see their great grandkids too.
> that my 2 bros would get on the path that they want to pursue.
> and that this business thing, should it be really for me would be fruitful. extra income does help nowadays.
my resolutions for 2008
> get off the couch and start going to the gym.
> try making time to go to the gym.
> save up for the kid's education
> move forward with my business
> document more the kid's moments and milestones and moments with good friends
> take care of my teeth better now that i'm metal-free!! finally!!
> get insurance for the kids, aishi and me and the family.
> lessen procrastination
> to finally really overcome being shy. (yes, i really am shy. i just use humor to mask it. hehehe)
> to not really believe in horoscopes and fortune tellers.
> not be afraid to say no or i can't.
i still have 11 more months to keep this list updated, but more or less these are the things that are important to me.
happy new year!!!

i won't be uploading as much pictures like before, but if you want to view the pics, hop on over to my multiply page, to be really updated on what's happening with me, the kids and aishi. :)
just happy that after all the wishing, and waiting i finally got it. technically it's not mine but for the whole family.
finally got our own digicam!! (see post re: wishlist) i love our cam!! i'm thinking of a good name to call it to make it really personal.
no more excuses that i don't have enough pics of the kids. time to exploit them while they're young hehehe and when they grow up they can cringe and be embarrassed when they see their pics. (time to get even? i went through that too and with 4 big albums to prove it. haha)
i'm happy at least there's one thing off my wishlist. :)
hey i'm still here!!! miss blogging about my life and kids, but it's much better being with the kids everyday than blogging and being online.
i guess i'm making up for those times that i got home late and the kids are sleeping.
but i sure have a lot to blog about but i can't guarantee that i'll be blogging about the past. i'd rather not dwell on those anymore since i've moved on and i'd prefer to blog about what's going on right now.
my kids are growing up everyday. kyle can now converse in sentences with a little sprinkle of gibberish. keon can now call out if he wants attention and he knows what he wants.
back to making those jewelries again, but haven't started selling them. have to go back to quiapo for more. all i got left now are beads and i've got tons of ideas for them. ple, sama ka ha? :D
friends!!! i miss you!! send some love, text, email, etc. (although at the moment, i can't text back, forgot to pay the bill. hehehe - that's what i get for spending a lot of time with the kids that i get to forget other adult "responsibilities"
anyway, back to mommy duties.
indeed i was. a lot has transpired the past few weeks that i didn't get to blog about it at all. there were good days, there were worse days but those worse days, amazingly turned for the best. god does work really sneaky. and yes i am happy that he snuck up on me or else i would be, let's just say, blinded and "tainted" by what's around me. and with a big sigh of relief, i say: THANK GOD!!
i'm not going to dwell into all the details that transpired, it's all water under the bridge for me, but for sure, someone i know still has a very big stick stuck up where the sun don't shine. if that makes you happy, then fine, i'm not going to be part of that, not at all. i have principles you know. let's just see what happens after.
or... maybe one day when i'm in my ranting mode, i'll spill all the beans and see who gets to react about it! yeah! that would be fun!! hahahaha
but for now, i'm staying positive because i'm with people who are far better human beings than others. so there.
thank god for music to calm me down...
i thought i was going to have the greatest day, but then come afternoon it just went pffft. just like that.
but as they say, there's always a silver lining. i just have to go find it hiding among the clouds.

i just can't keep all my feelings bottled up inside me. where else can i vent out but here in my blog. does that make me a bad person?
i'm not pleasing anybody here because this is my blog. i didn't make this blog to be popular and talked about, i just wanted a venue to let out my feelings and thoughts. because before i kept it all inside and where did i end up? more sad, depressed and destructive, when i write what i feel, after publishing my entry, i'm ok. i can breathe. i am free.
if that makes me less of a person. then fine. i never asked to be judged.
if anyone got beef, not my problem.
~
there is such a thing as freedom of speech. ask kuya k. :)
your stupid mouth will get you in trouble.
and no it's not for me. majority of the time i think before i speak. sorry na lang kung ang masabi ko eh masakit.
deal with it. what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
i'm a woman with balls - figuratively.
kwento to follow. still sleepy and not in the mood to go into the details.
enjoy the pics for now.

so, let me see... where do i begin?
you (referring to me - hehe labo) did something in the hopes that in some way or another would get noticed or even recognized for the person concerned but it was acknowledged by the other person.
does this mean, this person's not doing anything at all? or just ignoring this thing i did?
who's at fault here? me, the person who did something or this someone who didn't do anything?
makes you really think that there's something going on that i'm not part of or not being included in. and this should be team effort! the upside here would be all the blame will be on this someone and not on me and the other person i'm with. if and if the blame gets to us too, all hell would break loose. really.
oh, and the backbiting and false stories that are being made right this minute. once you hear the stories you'll hate this someone too.
(ple, remind me to make you kwento about this. as usual it's about D.B. bwahahahaha!! )
bato bato sa langit...
ang mag react... guilty!
I meant to write about what happened when I celebrated my 26th birthday but I was caught up with a lot of things that I totally forgot. And well, I didn’t have time to capture it all in pictures. But I’m not complaining. As long as I got to share it with close and new found friends. I am happy.
As incubus said in one of their songs: “and in this moment, I am happy”
And I am.
It may be a big deal for me to turn 26, when I have been very vocal to my friends that I’ll forever remain a 25 year old. I don’t know, maybe I might change my mind along the way and embrace my age.
Why 25 then? I think this is the peak of my existence, where I could do what I want and not being bound by my parents telling me what to do and what not to do. I have a family of my own where my kids are like my playmates, I could still run after them, be a kid like them, really understand what they like and dislike, in a way, know where they are coming from. This is the age where I am really enjoying the money I am earning and sharing it with the people I believe deserve to share what I have. And at 25 I’ve learned a lot.
So I guess there’s no difference in turning 26. Age is just a number. I just chose to stick to the number I like best.

I celebrated my birthday a Saturday, sept. 30 a few days before my birthday which fell on a Monday. I invited the usual people – the boys and their gilrs (4L) minus franco and cj. Of course my bestfriend was present, kerol and her hubby bogart, and the officemates I usually hang out with.
The house was packed with the people who came. Aishi prepared his ever famous chili con, hotdog pulutan and some chips. The guests were happy. Booze were overflowing (4 cases of beer methinks and rhum coke for me and ple).
The party ended around 430am. We didn’t even realize that it was that late with all the jokes, chismis, stories. The last people standing were ple and my officemates.
I may not remember all the details and other preps for the party but all I could have in my memories that these people made m birthday really special. I feel loved.
I may not receive any gifts, but isn’t being with the people you love and who love you back, worth more than all the material things you ever wished for?
And of course, aishi was there to make it all the more special. My aishi really took care of me and the preps. Really, what more could I ask for?
I'm going to sit here and wait for what 27 will bring. will you be there when i turn 27?
update: uploaded some pics during my birthday in my multiply
