Coping up with my boredom

First week of August...that means I'm officially a bum for half a year now. Sometimes it drives me crazy but when I think of my pregnancy...I am thankful I'm not working.

Weekdays...my oh so boring days. I wake up around 6am to prepare Chris' clothes...after I say goodbye to him, I would open the TV to Nickelodeon...yes! Heard it right not to any morning show our local channels offer....but to a cartoon channel, to watch Fairly Oddparents and The Rugrats. Oh I so love the babies, especially the fighting of Lillian and Phillip...that's the twins by the way. I wonder if I let our children watch this...I just don't like the character of Angelica, although in the end she will learn some lesson when she's doing nasty things...but you know it still freaks me out.

Anyways, after watching it, I usually go back to sleep and wake up until I hear a grumble in my stomach...time to eat! I drink Anmum every other day...Chris was really against to this but my doctor says it's alright, also considering that Anmum doesn't sell small quantity of their product, you have to buy the large box which cost Php600. Imagine?! Two years ago they still have this small boxes which is more convenient to buy since it's only Php130. I like my milk with ice on it. It's really refreshing! Yum!

I always turn the TV on around 10am to watch Showtime, and at the same time I go online to check my messages. Some stuff I do on the Internet:

a. Sign in to Facebook, check messages, check status updates, comment if there is any worth commenting about, play Family Feud, acccept request, post pics, chat if I want to, update my status if there's anything worth sharing.

b. Sign in to Yahoo...not that there are any important messages that I would receive, I like signing in to chat with my friends who are online, it is easier to use Yahoo chat than Facebook. Facebook sometimes will freeze the browser. Delete updates from Facebook, delete spam, forward chain messages ( which by now I'm kind of aware which emails contains this kind of stuff ), comment on any Yahoo update.

c. Download movies. This is the most interesting to do over the Internet. We have lot's of movies by now that even our "one movie per night" rule doesn't work for us to finish them all. We download movies from PSP sites and put it on our PSP and connect it to our TV, which by the way has a surround system...Chris insisted on this one. We make sure to download movies that are on DVDrip, Bluray or DVDscr format because it is clearer.

d. Download songs. A few months ago, I had this project to download songs that I like way back when I was in highschool. Gee! I was a Britney Spears fanatic by then. I really had a hard time completing the album. Some of it are Britney Spears, BSB, M2M, Hanson, Bwitched, All Saints, Mariah Carey and Spice Girls. It's really nostalgic to hear again their songs, and surprisingly I can still sing along, never forgotten the lyrics.

e. Download ebooks. Oh boy! This is my latest addiction since I found a way to transfer PDF files on my iTouch. So far, I have completed Nicholas Sparks, Dan Brown, Sidney Sheldon and The Princess Diaries books. I'm reading some of it now. Chris said he will buy me an ebook reader, I hope it will be soon.

I guess that's all I do when my household chores are done. Watch movie, TV shows, play computer games, read and blog. Although I don't usually do the blogging thing, but I normally visit blogs that I like. It's just that sometimes I am not in the mood to construct some sentences. Must go now...I have to call the agency...they haven't given us the refund. Darn, I want to sue them!

I Married my "Bestest" Friend

The song Lucky by Jason Mraz is one of the songs memorable for me and my hubby. Just listen to it and you'll know why:

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed

Whenever we have petty quarrels, he always tell me "aawayin mo ba bestfriend mo?" And all the anger will just fade away.

He understands me more than anyone can...he gives me love more than I deserve...he forgives me before I say sorry...he makes me laugh eventhough I feel like crying.

A Walk Down Memory Lane

I was fixing our things last night when I saw my old organizer....it was my organizer way back in highschool...of course other contents we're changed and I used it until I was single. So, last night I opened it again, read some of the things I wrote...I didn't know I also used it as my journal when I was really sad and there's this one entry that I really like. I read it aloud to my husband and I want to share it with you. Written on the 11th of September, 2007...last entry ko about my heartache, kasi after nun, happy na ulit ako. Hehehe!

"In my entire life, I lived in an environment where in all people are nice, i thought "kontrabidas" are just seen on TV...but I was wrong. There's a different world out there and I am not prepared for it.

I am hurting...because I am betrayed, unloved and used. I want to blame him for bursting the fairytale world that I used to lived in. I want to be angry for giving me so much pain. I never thought I am this weak. What's keeping me holding on is the fact that I still have my family and my true friends. Things happen for a reason, I know it is. I may not know it now but someday I will.

I just hope I could pick-up the pieces of my "used-to-be-fantasy" and be happy again."



Just a few thoughts:

I realized that somehow I am not that weak, for if I am I would have never risen from my fall and loved again.

Indeed, things happen for a reason. As what I have told my husband, I know now why it had to happen, he is the reason. For whatever hardship I had in the past, my husband and our children are my greatest prize in this world. I love my family to bits.
