bakit kaya ang daming taong ang main purpose lang sa buhay nila eh mag drama at kumontra? nakakasira minsan ng araw eh... minsan iniisip lang ang sarili.

haay...

yung mga katulad nyo eh ang dahilan kaya kumikita ang mga anti ageing creams eh... dapat kayo ang ma-eliminate nde yung fine lines at wrinkles. lumalabas lang naman ang mga yun dahil sa inyo eh.

hmph.

good thing got it off my chest. sa ngayon kasi wala akong makausap dito sa bahay. hehe :P

while my babies sleep

another opportunity to go online while my two babies are peacefully taking their afternoon naps. a little peace and quiet for a while. kyle's sleeping soundly on the sofa, keon's in his crib, in a few hours, he'll stir and make stretching noises indicating it's time for his feeding. kyle will wake up around 3pm, ask for milk and then play outside with his nanny.

i'm happy that my first born didn't show any signs of jealousy when we first came home with keon. he was actually curious as to who this new person in my arms. it was a great feeling when i explained to him that keon is his baby brother. and without batting an eyelash, he was happy to give him a kiss on the arm. although there are a few moments that he would poke and touch keon that would make me worried that he might get hurt. but when we tell him it's not nice, kyle does stop doing it. such a smart kid.

i'm still recalling that day when i gave birth to keon and make it into a separate blog entry much like what i did with kyle's before...

i'm happy to say that i finally have enough breastmilk to feed keon throughout the day. iwas frustrated when i was breastfeeding kyle because after the 4th or 5th day, i still could not collect enough breast milk to fill 1oz. i was that sad. good thing now with keon, he gets 2oz per feeding of my breast milk. and i get to pump milk every 3-4 hours or so. so i guess this would really help in getting my figure back. haha. i can't wait to fit back into my clothes!! i am so sick and tired of maternity clothes and i hope not to see them or use them in the future again. say like 10 years? hehe

by the way, i'm still selling and making jewelries, although i don't get to post the pics online yet. still waiting for my mom to get us a dsl connection. let me know if you want to see the ones i made or i could even create one for you, just send me the design you want and i'll do what i can. :)

have to prepare now to go to the hospital, i'll be taking keon for his first visit to his pedia and get his BCG shot. hopefully he won't have any fever and won't cry after the shot. :)

i want a makeover!!!

ia that possible? i have been wishing for someone to surprise me with one... a free makeover would be great. hehehe.

i must have been watching too much lifestyle network and tyra.

but i do want one. really.. why?

> i haven't plucked or had my eyebrows threaded. imagine the jungle i have up there.
> even if i had my hair cut short. i sure could use a few styles.
> and a new wardrobe would be great too!! i have given away around 60% of the clothes i have and the 40% that remains are more on the maternity clothes. how loser can that get?
> i'm also dying for a spa treatment after i give birth.
> i'm really hating my skin now. it's too dry even if i put a ton of lotion on it.
> foot spa!!!

will this remain as a dream??

i really want a makeover... *sigh*

i'm still pregnant

yup. the big day hasn't arrived yet. still in my pregnant glory but stuck at home. not that i'm complaining, i'm having the grandest time! i get to spend the whole day with my son and see how he goes through his day.

right now we're having aishi's cabinet renovated so that the orocan drawers will hold all the kid's clothes and other things. and i get to keep an eye on their things now and keep track of their clothes. i just wish that our room's much more bigger than it is. but, we're living with my parents so i don't have the right to complain. it is after all their house. but we don't plan to stay here forever, we're saving up for our own place soon. and a lot of saving will be done.

so anyway, on to lighter things.... what have i been up to? well....

> still making jewelries. and waiting for the advance classes that i can attend.
> teaching kyle his abcs and 123s. and he's quite the fast learner. you just have to capture the right moment to get his full attention.
> looking into other business options. i don't plan to be a housewife you know... hehehe
> one step at a time savings. a little goes a long way
> preparing keone's things. we're back to square one again.
> baby proofing the house and sanitizing the house. keone will be arriving anytime soon.
> getting more and more impatient. can't wait to see keone. and i'm on my 36th week! 1 week or more to go. :)
> will be setting up a garage sale by next week. there are a lot of stuff i'm willing to sell that i don't get to use anymore and i'm sure there will be others that can use it. (old books, knick-knacks, unused notebooks good for journals, jewelries, old toys etc.)
> hopefully before keone arrives, we have painted and cleaned our room. so this means, we have this weekend to do it...

so, what's up with you? :)

Thursday, December 21, 2006

laugh trip moments

i had this fun conversation with colby sometime this week. obviously people like us HATE math like it's a disease. ask us to compute without any pens and calculators and you'll get blank stares from us. so anyway, this is how the conversation went:

colby: ang right angle 90 degrees diba?
yagie: oo.. ata
colby: hehehe ok.
yagie: math yan eh!!
colby: pati ako nalilito na. hahaha!
yagie: eh ano yung 45 degrees?
yagie: yun ba yung parang natutumbang letter L?
colby: ang 45 deg eh yung isang slice ng cake. hahaha!
yagie: ayun eh!!
yagie: so ang 90 degrees eh parang 3:00 sa relo? tama ba?
colby: korek!
colby: ang kulet!
yagie: panalo tayo sa visuals!!
colby: depende pa kung paano mag slice ng cake. baka kasi ang isang slice eh yung malaki noh!
colby: as in yung 90 deg slice ng cake!
yagie: oo nga naman..

hindi ka ba naman mabaliw sa usapan na yan? haha

~~*~~
cam whoring with kyle..

obviously wala kaming magawa mag ina. and you should see his face when i whip out my fone. alam niya agad picture taking na. siyempre may kasama pang struggle yan kasi makikialam siya sa fone ko. haha

ang saya di ba?

mama kiss tayo! :P
~~*~~
aga mulach encounters... at chef and brewer
since ang lovable kong dada eh may gig sa chef and brewer every thursdays (plugging po!) and tamang timing naman since si cousin liza eh bumisita from the states, we decided to let her watch my dad. and as fate (uy, fate ba talaga?) would have it, andun din pala si aga. siyempre kasama ko as usual ang partner in crime ko na si colby. buti na lang at tamang-tama ang lugar namin since malapit kami sa cr so kung ma weewee man si aga, dadaan siya sa amin. at oo nga at dumaan nga. siympre kaming mga simpleng mamamayan lang eh na-starstruck ng todo! kulang na lang may stars sa mga mata namin.
so anyway, here's a video we took of aga jamming with my dad's band. see my dad there at the back? actually siya yung kinukuhaan namin ng vid eh, sumingit lang si aga. hehe joke!
enjoy!

i'm just ranting...

some people i know have been acting like sheep. you guys have a brain you know, use it!! please!

some things are really going downhill. and no, it's not personal thank god! i wuld've cried about it and not blogged about it.

it's funny that one person can really turn around things just like that with the snap of his fingers. hence the first statement that some people have become sheep! thank god i didn't turn ito one of them.

i'm just counting down the days until i can finally say this is over and done with. can i say freedom? hahaha

on the downside, i'm sure going to miss some of those sheep. they have been good. and i'm proud of the others that have remained indifferent and just gets on with what they are contented with. good job you guys! and see you soon!

for now, i'm keeping my mouth shut and details secret. but one way or the other some people would know. word gts around fast... and people talk, and i mean talk!

;)

As mentioned earlier, as the ultrasound last Saturday indicated that we are going to have another little boy running around soon! It was quite a happy and surprising experience since we didn’t expect at all that it was going to be another boy. Half of me was hoping that it would be a girl since we first came up with the name for a girl and we were slacking off thinking for a boy’s name.

It was really funny when aishi saw that it really was a boy. I mean it’s no denying that the doctor pointed out his balls. It was right there in front of us. I just laughed at how funny it is. Part of we was also happy knowing that I wouldn’t go through all the hassle of taking care of a baby girl since I have no idea how to take care of one. Taking care of boys are much easier. They’re much easier to clean up after pooping and weewee. One or two wipes and they’re good to go. 

The only sablay thing that I forgot to do was ask for a copy of the ultrasound print out of baby’s genitals as proof that he is a boy! Haha

When we got home, mama was requesting to do a 3d ultrasound so that she can see what Keon looks like. Hopefully that can be arranged once I get my 13th month pay.

~~*~~

Our office has arranged an internal contest and the grand prize would be a whopping… P300k for the winning group! Gosh! Imagine all the money when our team wins!

~~*~~

Saw happy feet last Saturday and it’s a great movie!! I am truly in love with robin Williams! He’s absolutely cute! And the other penguins too!

This is one movie with a story. I didn’t notice how long the movie was!

~~*~~

My cousin just came back from the US and I can’t wait to see her again! It has been so long! Updates when we get to go out this week. :D

~~*~~

My little boy’s the jealous type. he makes funny faces or scrunches up his face to show he’s mad when he sees his dada kissing me or even touching my tummy. He even gets mad if he sees his uncle hugging my dad! That only happens to me and my dad. For other family members, he wouldn’t care less. Hahaha

He’ll be nice to you if you take him outside to play with the dog or, just play outside. After that if he gets tired, he comes rushing to me. hahaha. How user can my son get? Amazing!!

~~*~~

I just can’t help but feel sad when I see or even hear news of babies dying or even being born dead. It just breaks my heart. One, because as a mom I feel what the mom feels, after all that she has gone through then this tragedy. Then, of course the loss of a loved one.

Blame the hormones or whatever but I just want to cry. It’s just so unfair that these little angles have to be taken too soon. Para bang pinakita lang sa mga magulang kung ano ang itsura ng mga anak nila.

A big chunk also goes to the fact that i’m scared as hell that this might happen to me as well and i’m scared of not being able to cope at all. But if it’s god’s will, it’s god’s will.

But I’d really prefer that I get to keep my kids as long as possible.

~~*~~

happy dancing kyle

naiinis ako..

kasi naman, pag gising ko kaninang umaga, nagsabi si yaya ni kyle (in a very casual manner pa!) na nadapa daw si kyle kahapon. so ayun may sugat tuloy ang little boy ko sa tuhod. nakakainis!

parang asan ba siya at hindi man lang niya nabantayan ng maayos para naman hindi magkaroon ng sugat ang anak ko? ang nakakainis pa eh parang ganun ganun lang. eh anak ko yun eh! anak ko yung nasugatan eh.

hmph nakaka bad trip lang... how i wish andun ako para hindi ganun ka-grabe yung sugat... :(

wawa naman little boy ko. *sigh*

I am seriously stressed lately. One, because the holiday season’s just under our noses and we’re up to our necks in preparing for the xmas party here in the office. Quite busy since I’m in the marketing department and follow ups and requests for sponsorships have been going on like crazy. Not counting of course the other people who send sponsorships and proposals every single day that I have to handle as well. But I’m just human and I can’t do everything at once. Here’s proof of how messy it gets this time of year…

Check out my desk… I believe I have the messiest and largest stack of papers in the whole office. Talk about me being OC… where is the OC person hiding? I need her here, asap!

And to think I hated having stacks and stacks of paper in my desk. And this is what I get.

You should see my marketing drawer and cabinet. It’s overflowing with things! I can’t even imagine putting any more items there! There’s no more space for the marketing department! Help! We’re drowning…

~~*~~

On to much better things then…

We laid our good friend and colleague, Edison to rest last Tuesday. It was a sad day since we won’t see him physically anymore but happy as well since he’s on to better things. No more pain and suffering.

One of my officemates, Peachy, created a memorial site for him. For Edison please feel free to light a candle for him even though you barely know the person. We, his officemates and friends would really appreciate it. J

~~*~~

Since I’m really busy with work, I wasn’t able to upload the pics of all the accessories I made. Unfortunately some of them were purchased already. But if you want to take a peek or you’re here in the ortigas area, drop me a line and I could show you what I made.

I also do customized accessories. Just show me the pic and I’lll try (and tell you kung kaya ba ng powers ko o hindi) to make your design.

I’m really looking forward to an advanced class in bead making.. para mas bongga ang mga designs!

If you want to share cool designs of necklaces, bracelets, earrings, etc. please send the pics to my gmail. hazel.yago.hung@gmail.com J

~~*~~

I hate the feeling when you’re preggy and you’re all gassy and you just can’t let out the gas no matter how much you want it to. It just stays there in your tummy and makes you really uncomfy. I’d choose to burp or fart anytime. But then ayaw ng gas eh… kainis!! I hate this! First, I’m constipated, now this??

~~*~~

I’m a bit bothered with our CR, everytime I go there, the seat’s always up! To think that we have our own CR from the boys. But it seems like one of the boys was there before me. it’s nice to see that the seat’s up. But it’s a girl’s CR. Is it necessary to leave the seat up? Nakakabother lang talaga…

Lapit na ang Nov. 28!!
