bliss - taken from mama meeya's latest blog entry

as mentioned, i was inspired to blog about it too...

my kids are my security blanket, with them nothing could go wrong. their smell, their touch, their breath, their laughter and tears, and everything that falls in between make me love the role of being a mom.

kahit pawis, kahit amoy wee-wee, they're still heavenly scents to me. sana forever na lang ang mga amoy nila...

motherhood is great!!

thinking out loud

how many days until September 24?

are you excited as i am?

social networking frenzy

comes with the job. but i doubt that i'll acquire a lot of contacts/ friends since i'd prefer to maintain one or two social networking sites.

so if you feel like adding me up or whatever, you can find me at:

>myspace
>orkut
>piczo
>imeem
>friendster
>multiply
>mobilemo (our site)

and i signed up to wordpress... should i move my blog there? or start a new one? but what should i blog about there? hahaha this is not the way i want to think... with a site that's driving me nuts... well... :P

will update this as soon as i sign up with more sites.

will someone bring me to London?

i want to go here!!!

Something brewing in London for Online Marketers

and yeah, it's a day after my birthday, so, if ever i go there maybe it's still my birthday should i arrive a day before the event. ha!

i get to go to London and at the same time, go and learn the latest in Online Marketing.

anyone want to sponsor little old me?

kids do not deserve cruel maids

i just received a forwarded email about a cruel maid. it was really disturbing the way this person handled the little kid. i think this innocent little kid was around 4-5 years old.

i can't continue... i'll just break down and cry all over again. the poor innocent life of this little kid.

i just hope he/she doesn't go through this again and i hope this maid is not employed anymore to this family. good thing though they were able to get it on video or else imagine the suffering the kid will go through all over again, everyday.

to the kid, whoever you are, i hope you're ok. i'll be praying for you... and the others who saw your ordeal you don't deserve it at all.

mommies and daddies, keep your kids safe.

i don't know what i'll do if my kids ever experience that. i just can't.

i'll find somewhere quiet and cry my eyes out again...

things i learned from my kids and hubby

Things I learned from kyle and keon:

- It’s still fun to laugh out loud
- To appreciate even the simplest of things
- That saying sorry is not that hard to do
- Not to be afraid to ask WHY?
- Hugs and kisses are one of the best medicines for anything that goes bad or feels bad.
- You don’t need expensive toys, books or dvds to learn, all it needs is a little imagination.
- Patience is really a virtue
- The more you get mad, the more nothing happens
- Life is complicated because we make it so.
- A smile can go a long way, and a genuine one at that.
- It’s ok to let out your frustrations through shouting at the top of your lungs, then move on.
- Appreciation can be given in the sincerest form.
- It’s ok to stumble and fall and get a few bruises, you can brush it off after and stand up again.
- Imagination can be fueled by anything if you let it.
- All work and no play makes your life really boring.
- If you gotta go, you gotta go.

Things I learned from being a mom and wifey to aishi:

- Never forget to say goodnight no matter how sleepy you are.
- Admitting your wrong and working out a compromise
- To just let go when the little ones have tantrums, give them time to let it out then find a distraction.
- That it’s ok even if I don’t know how to cook, as long as I keep my family happy and contented.
- That even an hour spent with the kids is an eternity for them. And always make quality time with the kids and hubby no matter how tight the schedule.
- To let my kids learn about themselves, the world on their own, with us watching and guiding them.
- Communication. Talk about anything and everything.
- It’s more fun to play with the kids and their toys than to play with the grown-up toys (i.e the latest gadgets).
- It’s pointless to hold grudges.
- Sometimes a hug in the middle of the night is much better than a ratty old blanket to keep you warm.
- It's fun having a debate with hubby and laughing about it after.
- Hubby is the best drinking buddy ever, along with ple (yihee special mention!)

and this list will keep on updating as long as i'm alive

finally!

finally met up with kerol and watched one big jesus where her hubby is part of. good times at vida de malate with really good friends.

click click!

ple, kerol, me, aishi

one big jesus!

rock on!!

whatever...

why?

hindi talaga ako naaliw sa mga taong may picture na kala mo may angle pa at drama yun pala eh sila lang mismo ang kumuha. may pa-pose pose pa. don't get the picture? try visiting those chat channels on tv and check out the pictures there. get it? yon. kainis noh?

wala lang. i just noticed a lot of those in every friendster, multiply and other social networking site. in fairness naman, some are quite good, but the rest, well, they're really failed attempts at trying to look good and make themselves look pleasingly as possible. and these are the people that frequent those chat channels. and can i just mention that majority of their photos have them wearing dark big glasses and looking like their dog just died. sheesh!

eh kahit naman saang angle eh wala talaga eh, bagsak.

no, i'm not nanglalait, i'm just thinking out loud.

rainy wednesday...

correction, stormy wednesday.

and i'm still here at work. hahaha

and now i'm wishing i should've stayed home... *toink*

i love you my precious blog. i really do!! :D

should i give everything up and just move on and find something much better or stand my ground and hope for the best?

no, this is not about my personal life...

i'm just losing faith in something. it's hard to think positive when something's bringing you down and keeping you from being motivated.

but letting go would mean a lot of sacrifices and hurdles that i'm not yet ready for.

i guess i should give it one more chance...

and hope for the best, as usual.

i thought this thing would be better than the last but then, something got ruined. and i can't fix this thing alone. not this way.

at the rate things are going, sometimes divine intervention isn't enough... human effort is the key here...

i have to be cryptic because some might get this entry the wrong way. and misinterpret it again.

no, this is not about you at all. stop thinking that. everything's not about you, you know... it's not worth it here in my blog.

just help me pray that things turn out for the best. for everybody...

world's oldest person dies...

read her story here: goodnight grandma

it made me think if ever i do get to reach that age, (but i seriously doubt, with all the vices and unhealthy lifestyle i have, i might be lucky to even to reach the 70 mark. ) that i wuld just be stuck at home watching tv all day. at that age well, too much activities would be really stressful.

i'd be happy to just even see my grandkids. that's enough for me, but to see my great grand kids, well, it would be a blessing but i don't wish for it..

my love for cars has resurrected!! check out the honda s2000 concept car for 2008. drool alert!!

i'm such a boy eh?

if i had the money i'd buyone and my ever favorite, toyota rav4!! in black... *dreamy-eyed*

chorva

i hope this thing pushes through... i miss making jewelries. all my beads and stuff have been collecting dust and other things in our house. i'm just looking for a little nudge to jumpstart it (i.e. money to buy the supplies) hehe

paging ple: when will you get the ones that you ordered? :) papagawa ka pa ba uli? alam mo naman ikaw lang ang constant buyer ko. (hahaha can you say Loser?) :P

just came back from the doctor's to have keon checked up for his tb test results and thank god he's negative! he's a happy healthy little boy just like his kuya. that's what his pedia said. we'll just come back on saturday for their shots... very expensive shots... although i know it's for their health even if it's going to burn a very big hole in our pockets again...

~~

the past few days i have been living on a 100 peso a day budget and thank god i'm surviving. if only this means can help in saving up money, but unfortunately, it doesn't. it just i have to live on that budget for now. plain and simple.

haay life...

another monday post...

yup, monday again.

bleh.

and all my usual "tambay" friends are not at work. one is at home finishing harry potter and the other is in the US. the other is on leave to take care of her family and other matters..

it's a good thing i'm going to the doctor in a while for keon's check up for his TB Test. i'll schedule his and kyle's shots on saturday.

i'm bored... send some love if you're online in YM. :)

blog block

nothing to blog about...

at all.

blame the darn rain. and the stupid red shoes i wore today which gave up on me. stupid me thought of wearing shoes on this kind of weather. what was i thinking?? taking a picture of it won't give it any justice. goodbye red shoes, you've served well even if i used you less than 10 times and stayed in a box longer. goodbye.. i'm going to miss you. you were the only red shoe i had. will i ever find another one like you?

if it still rains again tomorrow, i'm going to work wearing flip flops. and i wouldn't care if they stare at me. bah.

i just want to go home to my babies and hug them and make them laugh and cuddle under the blankets until we all fall asleep...

rainy days make me mushy... i love it!!

bear bear, hug tayo mamaya ha? *kilig*

good vibes

i'm going to surround myself with good vibes...

i'm not going to let the gloomy weather ruin my day. let it rain... i still got the sunshine on my side.

good vibes. good people. great and light-hearted conversations...

little miracles by keon

little boy doing his little "miracles" :)

you gotta love that face!

the magic ends...?

just finished reading book 7 of harry potter. unfortunately i read this as an e-book. i'm still going to read it again, this time if i get my hands on that hardbound copy.

anyway, as usual, j.k.rowling didn't disappoint her readers. it was action-packed to the end. although there are a few parts that were a bit dragging, but then again, i'm not complaining.

finally, a lot has been revealed in the book!!

i just hope the epilogue was much longer and more detailed than it was...

maybe there would be a book 8? this time telling the story after the fall of the Dark Lord and what happened after.

i'm intrigued as to what happened to the Malfoys after all that transpired in the story...

and the deaths to too many characters... i admit i did shed a few tears... i seriously felt the loss.

~~

now it's time to wait for the boxedset of the 7 books... :D

why break their hearts?

why do some people fall out of love with someone they've promised forever? why did they break their promise of till death do us part? why break someone's heart and yet still say you sill love them but__..?

i feel sad for those people who had their hearts broken and still finding ways to mend it. but then looking at what the situation has done, the damage has been done and putting it back the way it was will never be the same.

why are some people so stupid enough to fool around and think of themselves?

i pray for those who had their hearts broken by someone they loved deeply and gave and gave up so much for them and the relationship. the hardest part of it all is when there are innocent ones being pulled into the messy situation.

why should people take love for granted?
