Harry Pot-pot Day!

Yep! I watched it on its third day...not really that excited about the movie, maybe I've outgrown my fancy with Daniel Radcliffe or got tired of wishing that it will still be Hermoine and Harry in the end, nevertheless I will not miss it. I watched the movie with my hubby and of course my two sisters by heart, Jhongkie and Elaine. I'm more thrilled in seeing them ( Jhongkie and Elaine ) than seeing the movie. I even took the time to visit sureseats.com to make sure that we will have a good viewing seats...hehehe! After the movie, we had our usual photoshoot...I don't have the copy of the pics yet but I will surely post it here.

Should I still comment about the movie?! Hmmmmm, well.....ammmm...........my sis Jhongkie keep on saying while inside the movie house, "Comedy ba pinanood natin?!" she was saying that in between laugh. The movie is really hilarious, as oppose to the last movie The Goblet of Fire...I think that movie is dark. What I miss are the fight scenes involving the trio (I guess on the seventh book more fight scenes will be seen). Snape's portrayal, has always been superb. I was amazed to see Ginny grew more beautiful, and Hermoine? Wow! She has always been dazzling. My fave is still Chamber of Secrets...we'll see!

Thanks impawards.com for the pic.

Latest Craze...

Since I was just a kid, aside from collecting barbie dolls and stationery I am also an aficionada of playing computer games. I remember how me and my brother fought over Sega portable player and Family computer. Good thing they created a two player game. We used to play Super Mario (I cried wanting so hard to be Mario...but my evil brother won't allow me...I thought back then Mario is better because he always saves the Queen), who can ever forget the up-up-down-down cheat for Contra, where you can get a hundred life (now, it's my turn to make my brother cry, because I always get his extra life whenever I ran out...hehehe!), Battle City and other games that are really fun to play. My parents will send us to bed early because of Pacman...I always hear their petty quarrels because of that. And until now i'm a full pledge computer game freak.

My latest craze is Puzzle Quest Challenge of the Warlords...I play it on PSP. My original plan is to play Monster Hunter but had a change of mind when my husband is now very much into playing that game. Good thing my teammate Chubbs gave me the copy of Puzzle Quest...I'm sure there will be a lot of "undone household chore" and "sleeping on the wee hours of the morning" drama. I forgot what level my charater is but I already did a lot of quest and i'm hoping I will not be stuck in killing this two-headed monster that the name escapes my mind right now, but i'm sure it starts with the letter "D."

Here's a pic of my character...I was hoping to get a better copy to no avail:

( The girl on this pic is my character )

Thanks Portable Games Collection for the pic.

When browsing the Internet, I found a news that Puzzle Quest is also available in iPhone...nice!

Movie Date

Should have written about this topic sooner but couldn't find time, especially now Chris' mom is here in the Philippines. We stay in their Laguna house every weekend to spend some time with her.

Anyways, last June 26, we watch the Trasnformers in Glorietta. Uber sa dami ang mga tao...should have went there early to get an earlier slot. We fall in line for almost an hour and got a not so good viewing time and seat, suprisingly I still enjoyed the entire date. The movie was superb and i'm with my hubby...

While outside the movie theater waiting for our turn to get tickets, I took pleasure of taking some pictures of what seemed like a never ending line of people who are eager to see the movie:

After the movie we went to Toy Kingdom for some toy hunting. My husband wants to buy the UFC, Series one toys...especially Matt Hughes figure. He was really sure he is going to buy that, not until we saw Kratos action figure...we've been looking for this toy forever. Ang hirap talaga maghanap. I told him he can only choose one, he will have to come back for the other maybe next month or the following month. He bought Kratos and we also bought some board games which we haven't use until now.

Here's a pic of the latest addition on his collection:

Fight against Cervical Cancer

Year 2007, my OB informed me that I am prone to cervical cancer...it was a devastating news for me and not wanting my family to worry I kept it from them when I underwent an operation. It's scary knowing that cervical cancer is said to be the second leading cause of death among Filipino women. I am single then, and I thought, it's fine I will not marry and have kids. So, I never went back to my OB to have the vaccination.

Four months later I met my husband Chris and regretted my decision not acting at once to prevent having the disease. I want to stay healthy for my family, expecially for our kids.

A month after giving birth to Baby Kitin, I had my first vaccination for anti-cervical cancer. It was Php5000 back then, good thing with my last two shots of the vaccine it only cost Php2500 each. Last June I had my last shot and my OB suggested to wait for another six months to have another child. I'm really excited for that day to come.

Weekend in the hospital...

It has been a tiring weekend for me...Saturday night my husband went home from a party with a high fever...I know it's scary to get sick now a days because of the A H1N1 rage and aside from that Sunday is our team building...I can't leave him alone in our house sick on a Father's Day. I was really hoping he get well soon but his fever got even worse. Monday, we went to Medical Center Paranaque, the closest hospital from our home. After the check-up the doctor advice him to stay in the hospital for observation. He underwent a lot of lab test and took a lot of medicine until his fever subsided. Wednesday night we finally went home and he was advice to rest for two more days. Here's a picture of him with the nebulizer thing on:

Another pic, trying to play PSP to beat boredom...wawa naman...pinipilit talaga:

Winner!

Yeah! Lakers won last night's championship game, ending the series with 4-1. A memorable win for Kobe Bryant as he step out of Shaquille O'Neil's shadow. This is also Coach Jackson's 10th record, he is wearing a yellow cap with an "X" design on it earlier, which according to him was given by his family. I find it kinda cute. I enjoyed watching the awarding, with Bryant's family with him, his wife and two daughters. I was really sick since last night and watching them won made me feel better.

Next stop, will be the PBA championship. I'm hoping Ginebra would make it...

Estou de volta!

Yes! Estou de volta...it's not the movie of Ai-ai de las Alas...it means "I am back!" After months of contemplation, whether to get a wired broadband or not, we have decided to get one because Tattoo's connection is unbearable. Aside from that, we don't want to be bothered of having to buy a prepaid load everytime we want to use an Internet connection ( Lumalaki na kasi ang utang namin kay Elaine...hehehe!). Our service is still with Globe, and so far we are satisfied with the connection. Globe should give us a discount for our subscription with their Internet and post paid phone service...hehehe!

I've been busy for a while...work, gala, reading my ebooks, managing my Facebook, tapings, premieres, TV guestings...oha! Seriously, i'm loving my work right now, unbelievable it may seem, but I really do love it. Working hours may suck, but it will not last long, schedule changes every month so you won't be stuck with an obnoxious schedule. I don't mind changing my body clock, by now I am used to it. I get to go home on time (except of course if there are scheduled gala), no paper works,i'm being paid well and the environment is less of an "office atmosphere." For me it is more like in college...continuous learning, people same as your age and lots of activities. A big part of why I love my job right now is the company that I am in...I like our company culture which is really pro-employee and the career growth is good...everything will be based from your stats.

Speaking of company activities, this month will be a busy one...special screening of Transformers, company outing, sportsfest and our team building. Whew! Better squeeze all those to my schedule..artista?

Sneezies iPhone Game

We found a lot of exciting games for iPhone but this game is the best:

Sneezies

Addictive...easy to play, cute and eye candy graphics, hilarious sound effects. My husband loves this game...he has the highest score so far...just wait for my sweet revenge. Hehehe!

Other cool games, it also works on iTouch:

Shake and Spell

Aero Drum

Wedding Dash

My pet...Boo

About to sleep...

Chris: Mommy, alam ko na...

Eda: Ano?! (Sleepy)

Chris: Gagawa tayo ng Facebook account sa Linggo.

Eda: Aaa, ok! (Snoring...)

Chris: Pwede ka maglaro ng games...

Eda: Cge, Daddy...gagawa tayo... (Snore some more)

Chris: May Poker...

Eda: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....

We have our Facebook account, you can add us...I also decided to join pet society. I like it....here's my pet Boo!

I Love My TWC Mug!

Nothing can take away my TWC mug from me...hahaha!

Cake Queen

I just finished playing this game. I like it! You can add new equipments for your cafe and build your own home. Got this from Game Top.

Alumni

I finally got the time to read through my email...and I found this....too late!

Fix You

While riding the jeep to Ayala, I heard this song...it made me sad.

When you try your best but you don't succeed

When you get what you want but not what you need

When you feel so tired but you can't sleep

Stuck in reverse.

And the tears come streaming down your face

When you lose something you can't replace

When you love someone but it goes to waste

Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below

When you're too in love to let it go

But if you never try you'll never know

Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

And the tears stream, down your face

When you lose something you cannot replace

Tears stream down your face and I...

And the tears stream, down on your face

I promise you I will learn from my mistakes

Tears stream down your face and I...

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you.

I miss you...

I'm missing you soooo much, Baby Kitin that I want to pick you out from my dreams and make it real.

I Love My Cross Stitch!

Here are a few designs I did this vacation. Smile design, I made a personalize Valentine card with this design as the cover for Sis Elaine and Mariane. I hope they will meet someone who will make them smile forever.

Second is patch my broken heart design, which was given to Sis Jhongkie, attached to my personalize Valentine card with the message, I hope someday you’ll find that person who will mend your heart.

I’m working now on this design. My husband had chosen this for me to do. Its cool, its like me and him…on a comical way…hehehe! After this I am planning to start my Baby Kitin’s picture. I already have the pattern but I have to finish this one first.

Plain Housewife No More

I have to work, I have to work, I have to work….staying at home makes me crazy! By next month I need to work. I’m not really a plain housewife material. The only useful thing I do here is prepare breakfast, wash our clothes, dishes, prepare dinner…and I don’t do all of these things everyday. So, whenever I don’t have anything to do, I finish my cross stitch, watch television shows, movies, play computer and PSP games and text my friends (which by the way I don’t normally do when I have work…sorry friends).

I can’t stay long using the Internet which is kinda frustrating for a “surf the net” addict like me. I used my phone as a modem and I have to pay Php5 per 15min and it is already costing me a lot of money. My husband agreed to have a broadband connection and we are still deciding whether to get Sky Cable, Globe or Smart. I already called Globe early this morning and they will have a survey here three to five days from now. I haven’t called Sky Cable yet, I think Sky Cable is the best option for us…its just that, the last time I heard it is not available in our area. But I need to recheck it, because a few weeks ago, a note came up to our television screen about the Sky Cable Broadband…I’m crossing my fingers!

Disney Channel Enthusiast

Yup! I'm 25 years old, married and a mom but here I am...still enjoying my fave channel on Earth...tanan...Disney Channel. Huh! I'm a living proof of the cliche..."Young at heart." Hahaha! Anyways, here are the programs that I love most.

Hannah Montana



At first, I was like...Hannah Montana?! Why is this show so famous...nothing special about that girl...and then I watched the show...and now I say...Hannah Montana rocks! I love the show so much that I don't notice my husband when I'm watching it. It is so hilarious and I think the show is also good for teenagers. It gives us valuable lessons. It tackles issues about major concerns our teenagers are facing today. My fave character is Lilly, bestfriend of Hannah. She's so cute. You can visit Disney Channel site for more information of this show, www.disneychannel-asia.com.

The Wizards of Waverly Place


The show is about the siblings Justin, Alex and Max whom like their father, possess magical powers. These three are wizards in training, because in each wizard family, only one person can keep their powers when they grow up, so they are preparing for the final battle to determine who will keep the powers. Each character has a different persona that makes the show interesting. My favorite character is Justin Russo, not the coolest boy in school but very intelligent and responsible. Just the other day, I found out that they are also offering books for avid fans. I saw a book displayed in National Bookstore, the funny thing about it, later that night I watched the episode on Disney Channel. So, I guess i'll have to stick on watching it.

The Suite Life of Zack and Cody


As the title implies, this show is about Zack and Cody. They live in the Tipton Hotel and they have lots of adventures as they make this hotel as their own playground causing mayhem and a lot of catastrohies but still there are lessons to be learned.

Totally Spies



First show I'm very fond of watching on this channel. I tried looking up on the Disney Channel website about this show and I did not find any. So, I tried Google...and there, the show is under Cartoon Network...ahmmm! This show stars three teenaged superspies from Beverly Hills: Sam, Clover, and Alex, who fight international crime with their special gadgets supplied by their boss, Jerry, a member of the secret World Organization Of Human Protection (WOOHP) agency.My fave character is Sam. The show has a lot of girl power to offer.

(Just got the pic from TARA forum.)

On being judgmental...

Unconsciously we choose how we see people. When we like someone, we are tolerant. When we don't like, we focus on their faults. It's not other people true persona that determines how we feel about them; it's our attitude, the human tendency to prejudge.

Just got from TARA forum.

TV Buff

TARA 3


I'm an avid fan of TARA since this show was launch...i'm not a fan of the first Filipino partaker of TARA...mainly because they're not competitive. Love Marc and Rovilson though. Its just sad that they did not pull it off on the finale. Moving forward, Geoff and Tisha is not as competitive as the second team but i'm glad they were able to strategize. At first I did not like them, I was disappointed how Tisha always make "paganda" during the show, putting make up, doing her hair...which she really doesn't have too, she will get dirty anyways. When other teams started to pick on them..huh...I started rooting for this team. I like what Geoff said on the finale..."We are the Super Couple for this season."


TAR 13


Show just ended last night...i'm originally rooting for Toni and Dallas but sadly they were the last team eliminated before the final three. Should have won the race but luck is really not on their side. My husband chose the frat boys Andrew and Dan because they're funny but withdrew quickly after watching the second leg. Among the three finalist we like Ken and Tina. We're glad that even though they did not win the race they have each other back. It was really a tearjerking moment when Ken pulled out their wedding ring and put it on Tina's fingers who is crying. Even Phil, the host of the show cried, my husband won't admit that he did too...hehehe!


Canada's Next Top Model


I thought I will be able to watch the finale of CNTM, di pala. They have aired the last two epi on the same day and I have work then. Just found out over the net that Sisi, my fave came third. I don't know why I always go for the underdogs. She has a very strong personality that everyone hates. And almost everyone was against her. Judges say that what you will not like about her will also be the same thing you'll love about her. She's good on pictorials. Andrea won, she's friend with Sisi, so I guess i'm fine with that. They have a new season now...I now have a bet but still i'll check if she's good.


Chuck


So, glad Season 2 is out. For those who doesn't know the show, this is from Wikipedia.

"The series is about an "average computer-whiz-next-door" who receives an encoded e-mail from an old college friend now working in the CIA; the message embeds the only remaining copy of the world's greatest spy secrets into Chuck's brain."

Funny Call Center Experiences

These are so hilarious. Got it from www.bootstrike.com.

Travel Centre

Customer: "I've been ringing 0700 2300 for two days and can't get through to enquiries, can you help?".
Operator: "Where did you get that number from, sir?".
Customer: "It was on the door to the Travel Centre".
Operator: "Sir, they are our opening hours".

Breathing

On another occasion, a man making heavy breathing sounds from a phone box told a worried operator:

"I haven't got a pen, so I'm steaming up the window to write the number on".


Right Click

Tech Support: "I need you to right-click on the Open Desktop".
Customer: "OK".
Tech Support: "Did you get a pop-up menu?".
Customer: "No".
Tech Support: "OK. Right-Click again. Do you see a pop-up menu?"
Customer: "No".
Tech Support: "OK, sir. Can you tell me what you have done up until this point?".
Customer: "Sure. You told me to write 'click' and I wrote 'click'".


Time Machine

Caller: "I deleted a file from my PC last week and I have just realized that I need it. If I turn my system clock back two weeks will I have my file back again?"


Nothing on screen

This has got to be one of the funniest things in a long time. I think this guy should have been Promoted, not fired. This is a true story from the Word Perfect Helpline, which was transcribed from a recording monitoring the customer care department. Needless to say the Help Desk employee was fired; however, he/she is currently suing the Word Perfect organization for "Termination without Cause".

Actual dialogue of a former WordPerfect Customer Support employee. (Now I know why they record these conversations!):
Operator: "Ridge Hall, computer assistance; may I help you?"
Caller: "Yes, well, I'm having trouble with WordPerfect."
Operator: "What sort of trouble??"
Caller: "Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away."
Operator: "Went away?"
Caller: "They disappeared."
Operator: "Hmm. So what does your screen look like now?"
Caller: "Nothing."
Operator: "Nothing??"
Caller: "It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type."
Operator: "Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out??"
Caller: "How do I tell?"
Operator: "Can you see the C: prompt on the screen??"
Caller: "What's a sea-prompt?"
Operator: "Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?"
Caller: "There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything I type."
Operator: "Does your monitor have a power indicator??"
Caller: "What's a monitor?"
Operator: "It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a little light that tells you when it's on??"
Caller: "I don't know."
Operator: "Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that??"
Caller: "Yes, I think so."
Operator: "Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the wall.
Caller: "Yes, it is."
Operator: "When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one??"
Caller: "No."
Operator: "Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable."
Caller: "Okay, here it is."
Operator: "Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your computer."
Caller: "I can't reach."
Operator: "Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is??"
Caller: "No."
Operator: "Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way over??"
Caller: "Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle - it's because it's dark."
Operator: "Dark??"
Caller: "Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window." .
Operator: "Well, turn on the office light then."
Caller: "I can't."
Operator: "No? Why not??"
Caller: "Because there's a power failure."
Operator: "A power.................................. .... A power failure? Aha, Okay, we've got it licked now. Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came in??"
Caller: "Well, yes, I keep them in the closet."
Operator: "Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the store you bought it from."
Caller: "Really? Is it that bad?"
Operator: "Yes, I'm afraid it is."
Caller: "Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them?"
Operator: "Tell them you're too stupid to own a computer."

True story from a Novell Net Wire Sysop:

Caller: "Hello, is this Tech Support?"

Tech: "Yes, it is. How may I help you?"

Caller: "The cup holder on my PC is broken and I am within my warranty period. How do I go about getting that fixed?"

Tech: "I'm sorry, but did you say a cup holder?"

Caller: "Yes, it's attached to the front of my computer."

Tech: "Please excuse me. If I seem a bit stumped, it's because I am. Did you receive this as part of a promotional at a trade show? How did you get this cup holder? Does it have any trademark on it?"

Caller: "It came with my computer. I don't know anything about a promotional. It just has '4X' on it."

At this point, the Tech Rep had to mute the caller because he couldn't stand it. He was laughing too hard. The caller had been using the load drawer of the CD-ROM drive as a cup holder and snapped it off the drive.
Prev: Guardian Angel

Guardian Angel

This is from Jelvie:

You never know when your guardian angel will be there for you so I have to try...

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.
When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for
that person..


When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet
a need you have expressed.

They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide
you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally
or spiritually.


They may seem like a Godsend and they are.
They are there for the reason you need them to be.


Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient
time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship
to an end.


Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.
Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.


What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire
fulfilled, their work is done.
The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time
to move on.
Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your
turn has come to share, grow or learn.


They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.
They may teach you something you have never done.
They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.


Believe it. It is real. But only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you
must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation.


Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what
you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of
your life.


It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.

Baby Kitin

I gave birth last August 25, 2008 with a cute Baby girl. Her name is Baby Kristin Ragay Veloso, we call her Baby Kitin. She's in heaven now and I miss her so much.

Credit Unions are CREDIT-able

Right for the times? "A credit union is a cooperative financial institution that is owned and controlled by its members, and operated for the purpose of promoting thrift, providing credit at reasonable rates, and providing other financial services to its members." (Wikipedia)

Inspiring...

I was looking through my tons of email when I found this email from Elaine.

How to Stay Young...there are Ten Things she sent me but number 6 really struck me.

6. The tears happen:
Endure, grieve, and move on.
The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourself.
LIVE while you are alive.

Did I Marry the Right Person

Sent to me by Papa Bear (Berto), I want to share it to you.
Those who are still single may learn something from here...


Those who are already married may take it as a guideline to improve your marriage & relationship ...

DID I MARRY THE RIGHT PERSON?

During one of our seminars, a woman asked a common question. She said, 'How do I know if I married the right person?'
I noticed that there was a large man sitting next to her so I said, 'It depends. Is that your husband?' In all seriousness, she answered 'How do you know?'

Let me answer this question because the chances are good that it's weighing on your mind.

Here's the answer.
EVERY relationship has a cycle. In the beginning, you fell in love with your spouse / partner . You anticipated their call, wanted their touch, and liked their idiosyncrasies (unconventional behavior/habit) .

Falling in love with your spouse wasn't hard. In fact, it was a completely natural and spontaneous experience. You didn't have to DO anything. That's why it's called 'falling' in love... Because it's happening TO YOU.

People in love sometimes say, 'I was swept of my feet.' Think about the imagery of that __expression. It implies that you were just standing there; doing nothing, and then something came along and happened TO YOU.

Falling in love is easy . It's a passive and spontaneous experience. But after a few years of marriage, the euphoria (excitement) of love fades. It's the natural cycle of EVERY relationship. Slowly but surely, phone calls become a bother (if they come at all), touch is not always welcome (when it happens), and your spouse's idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute, drive you nuts.

The symptoms of this stage vary with every relationship, but if you think about your marriage, you will notice a dramatic difference between the initial stage when you were in love and a much duller or even angry subsequent stage.

At this point, you and/or your spouse might start asking, 'Did I marry the right person?' And as you and your spouse reflect on the euphoria of the love you once had, you may begin to desire that experience with someone else. This is when marriages breakdown. People blame their spouse for their unhappiness and look outside their marriage for fulfillment.

Extramarital fulfillment comes in all shapes and sizes. Infidelity is the most obvious. But sometimes people turn to work, a hobby, a friendship, excessive TV, or abusive substances.

But the answer to this dilemma does NOT lie outside your marriage. It lies within it. I'm not saying that you couldn't fall in love with someone else.
You could.

And TEMPORARILY you'd feel better. But you'd be in the same situation a few years later. Because (listen carefully to this):

THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT 'S LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND.

SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. It'll NEVER just happen to you. You can't 'find' LASTING love. You have to 'make' it day in and day out. That's why we have the __expression 'the labor of love.' Because it takes time, effort, and energy. And most importantly, it takes WISDOM. You have to know WHAT TO DO to make your marriage work.

Make no mistake about it. Love is NOT a mystery. There are specific things you can do (with or without your spouse) to succeed with your marriage.

Just as there are physical laws of the universe (such as gravity), there are also laws for relationships. Just as the right diet and exercise program makes you physically stronger, certain habits in your relationship WILL make your marriage stronger. It's a direct cause and effect. If you know and apply the laws, the results are predictable. ... you can 'make' love.

Love in marriage is indeed a 'decision'.. . Not just a feeling.

Remember this always:

'God determines who walks into your life. It is up to you to decide who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go.'

Tell Me Something I Don't Know

On The Chris Matthews Show, November 16th Chris Matthews leads with: "`It's not my job.' We've got a financial Katrina on our hands. Recession and layoffs are pouring through the floodgates, and nobody's in charge. Bush looks retired, Barack Obama's not president. So who's protecting us?
"Mandate for change? When Reagan and Bush won, they charged ahead with a conservative vision. Will Obama do what Reagan and Bush did, do it big and bold no matter how tough the times? The Democrats are in the driver's seat. Shouldn't they drive?"
The panelists:
-- Michele Norris hosts "All Things Considered" on National Public Radio.

Awakening the blogger in me...

Wow! Hanep sa title.

I've been down and out...no time for blogging, but I'm so back with vengeance, hahaha! I'm here in my mom's house browsing news on the web and blog hopping again...my second best past time, next to exasperating my husband (it happens only if he's busy playing PSP and watching TV).

We'll move out from their house in Laguna this weekend. I'm hoping that in our new place there's an Internet signal. But for the meantime, excuse me if i'll post several blog entries in a day. Speaking of moving out, here's a pic of the apartment:


It is in Sucat near our office. I'm a bit scared and excited. Scared, maybe because it will only be the two of us. I'm really used to having someone older than me in the house. Who will take charge of everything. Excited, because of the same reason that it will only be me and my husband. Yohooo! Hahaha! Can't help this dirty mind of mine. Anyways, its hard to start a new family. We need to buy things for the house...from broomstick, hanger to appliances and kitchenware. Well, new beginning.

I want a guy...

I'm so glad I found him!
