Thoughts and Stuff

Farewell For Now

2011-03-16T07:18:00.000-07:00

It's been a while now since i posted about getting into a caregiver course and now its nearly finish. At first i thought i am not going to survive it not because of the course itself but because of the people i am going to mingle. I thought i would have hard time adjusting but i was wrong because in just a few days i became comfortable with my new meet friends and now we have built a strong bond with each other.

Now that some of them are nearly finish I'm sure we will miss each others company. It will never be the same as we are all together. They're not going to wear their scrubs suit anymore and they will surely miss seeing our teacher's in their medical nursing scrubs. I am surely going to miss the noise, the laughter, the gimiks as well as those irritating moments. Some of us well be left behind to finish some modules and its not going to be long before we said goodbye too on our uniform and scrubs. I hope that's gonna be soon, so we can be together again on the graduation.

New Course

2010-10-31T19:38:00.000-07:00

After couple of months since i finished my computer technical course, I've decided to enrolled myself to a caregiving course. Well just an additional skill i might be able to use one day in the future but i never thought that it was that too hard for me because it is much like a nursing not just only for their healthcare uniform or hospital nurse uniform but also some of the job they are actually doing. It is a quite shock to me as i am scared of needles or injections but no turning back as i've already start it. My classmates and my doctor teacher on his doctor uniform assure me that i can do it. Well much of an encouragement but anyway its been a week now and still adjusting myself. Struggling on difficult medical terms but hopefully well learn to love it. Well cross fingers!

A Very Warm Week For Me

2010-04-23T05:33:00.000-07:00

As i may recall, this week was a very productive week for me. I am learning a lot from my hands on training and i am having fun. However i am having hard time with the warm weather...phew!. It was indeed very warm. I could hardly breath when travelling to the city. I am sure i am not the only one having this kind of feeling.

Anyhow it's Friday today so i went for walk at the Park after the training. It was already 5 in the afternoon, so its not that hot as it was earlier but there are no cold breeze though. I walk around and tried to take pictures of the place....oh well not really the place but i'm looking for a certain subject that may look better on my point and shoot camera as i am trying to explore it.

I haven't got much shot as it was starting to get dark and also there is not much subject to take, aside from the crowded people that are fuzzing around the exhibit. Not sure what exhibit it is but i guess its about Earth Day based on the writings i saw from their logo canopy and logo mats. So instead of joining the crowd i went to a nearby mall just to cool myself as it really warm and humid outside. I feel relieve the moment i got inside the mall as it really makes me feel cool and relax. Just what i wanted.

Anyway what was there was also an exhibit of summer getaway places which of course includes Samal Island. In fact, most of the representatives there are from famous and new beach resorts in Samal including the beach resort where we held our wedding. I can easily recognize it even from a far distance. I did observed the colors of their trade show flooring and trade show carpet matches the color of their resort logo which is of course very important as that where they were recognized. There are new beach resorts as well that participated in the trade show. Well of course it was a good way for them to spread the news that they exist which i think is helpful for their business to grow. I must say that all of them are beautiful beaches. Some of them i've already explore and some new are very inviting especially in this warm weather. It will be very nice to go swimming and explore.

Anyway, it was past 6 already and i feel hungry, so i decided to go home. I got home past 7 and feel dizzy...phew what a traffic jam! Very warm and hungry. But now at this very moment i feel fine and just feel the need to write. Soon afterwards i'll be going to sleep. Till next time.

Wedding Video

2010-04-11T11:55:00.000-07:00

I finally finished my video editing and its already uploaded in our facebook page. Unfortunately i cannot give the link here for privacy. Anyway i felt good about it. My husband said its superb for a first timer. He said, it was done very good. I could use it as a good portfolio for a future job on that field. Well i really thought it was done very poor but i'm happy to hear its not. Anyway after a lot of trial and error, i finally finished it. Learning by my own was very difficult. Researching and trying those free softwares online was really a risk. I almost give up but i'm glad i didn't. It was really tiring because i spent a lot of time in front of the computer but it was a fun experience after all.

Alright gotta go now. Its late and i was supposed to sleep early because its my first day on training center tomorrow. I'm very excited to finally study again at last on the field i am really interested in. Goodnight everyone!

New Template Again

2010-04-11T11:38:00.000-07:00

Alright, i've been exploring online again and have change my template. I choose a free one from a website i found, not too much design just a very simple one. I like it because its 3 column but i know one day in the future i will change again that's if i'm still gonna use this blog. Not much time here that's why but looking forward to learn to make my own website and start all over again. Cross fingers! hehehe....

Anyway i am looking for a hidden code that was remain on my settings which came from my previous template. I couldn't find it as it still remain and merge on my new template...if you notice it " just use your imagination". I've already check my html settings but couldn't really find something hidden there. It's really annoying to see it on my page and its really tiring to change again. I really like to get rid of it because it doesn't look good. Well if anyone have same experience or if anyone knows how to get rid of it or anyone is expert there....a help or advice is welcome.

Days

2010-04-07T01:52:00.000-07:00

Days has gone by so very fast and now its nearly the middle of the year. I'll be turning 31 this year and i feel like getting old. Just starting my new life being married and apart from my husband. The distance is really difficult but we are trying our best to handle it. But- well sometimes the longingness really makes me feel sad. It seems like the world is trying to test our love for each other, our hopes and our dreams. It's not that simple as people think but hopefully soon we'll be together and i can't wait for that moment to come.

Research.....

2010-03-30T09:34:00.000-07:00

Its midnight here and yet im still wide awake. I've been doin research the whole day as to how i can finish my experimental video making. I have few ideas already but im lack of software to use. I've been trying to find free one online like this photoshop thing to edit some photos but couldn't find one. Most of it you need to purchase. Oh well, of course who would have give it for free . Its a business for God sake...what i am thinking?

Anyway i'm sure there's a lot to know about this. Just learning little by little. Still have to figure out how to fix my dvd rom as well as it won't play a dvd disc- our wedding video on dvd. Its really mind buggling for someone who is not really a computer technician. Anyhow its a great challenge for me to be able to learn this stuff. In fact, i've always find it very interesting to learn.

Well its kinda late now. I'm just really dropping by to write a short update and to vent at least. I am excited for next week as i'm going to a training center for a computer technical course. Alright till then, have a good sleep everyone.

Catching up

2010-03-29T09:15:00.000-07:00

Its been over 4 months now since my last post. Don't know what brings me here at this very moment to feel the need to write but maybe i just feel bored. Anyway i know i had a lot of pending thoughts i should have written here since the last post i made but it seems like i suddenly lost my interest, my mood or whatever reason is that for not writing. Well the last time after my last post i was very pre occupied by my wedding preparations. I've been busy and stress out sorting out details. I was just able to breath and relax after the wedding itself. Oh well not really as my husband and i, had to sort out legal matters after the wedding day still. We both had no chance to spend time for ourselves to relax and enjoy our moment but we do understand that there are always glitches no matter how you make things as perfect as you can. Well nevertheless, we are both happy now that we surpass the trials we had and now we are proudly married. Our big day was indeed the happiest day of our life. We were able to achieved our dream wedding at the wonderful beach of samal island on Valentines day. Isn't that romantic?...well it is.... for both of us. Can't help it but to smile whenever i reminisced.....hehehe as if it was long ago....it was just last month and i still feel wonderful. Anyway i think i had at least put my lost thoughts this time and hoping some more will follow.

Gold Investment

2009-11-17T03:07:00.000-08:00

There's no doubt that gold is the best investment a person can have. It a stable and profitable thing to invest as no one can mess with its value and it's the only asset that is not someone else's liability. Gold owners will agree that it is a good insurance they can depend on as it is the most durable wealth-preserving asset on the planet.

Now i am not really that familiar about investing gold coins or gold bullion coins as well as how and where to puchase it but there was this website called Gold Coins Gain that is very informative. It explains and gives you idea about gold coins or gold bullions. In fact i was amazed to read about how much the value now of gold bullion coins that was purchased many many years ago and i must say its really worth the investment. Now i know why most of the investors really invest on such thing.

Can you tell me?

2009-09-05T05:59:00.000-07:00

I am hurt, my tears are falling and can't help it. .....Why is there people who sees only the things that is not good in you? Why can't they see the good things that you've did? Why is it hard to deal with a narrow minded person who only believe what they only like to believe? Why can't some people be happy where can you be happy and be supportive? Why is it hard to prove yourself when they don't know how to appreciate? and why is it so hard to be in between all of those? Can you tell me?

Virtual Memory is Too Low

2009-09-02T09:58:00.001-07:00

Oh my! It won't let me this time...... I had a warning again. " Virtual memory is too low. Increasing the size of your page...etc." tsk...tsk...tsk... can't do anything about it but to give up. Anyway, i had upload my Manggang Hilaw and i am happy atleast i made one. I will try to sort out this bug first and will try tomorrow for updates. I am sleepy anyway. Can't afford to start staying up late again. Have a nice sleep everyone:)

Finally i made one......

2009-09-02T09:42:00.000-07:00

I am happy that i finally had the chance to successfully upload a picture here for a new post. Its been couple of weeks now and was really looking forward for this chance. Well, i am glad my old computer cooperates with me at this very moment...phew! I still have pictures to upload and post for updates. I just hope i will not be rebooted again...Oh Please!

Manggang Hilaw w/ Spicy Ginisang Bagoong Alamang

2009-09-02T09:06:00.000-07:00

I was doing my afternoon walk nearby village when i saw this mouth watering Manggang Hilaw.....can't help but to buy. Well, i am sure fellow filipinas love this sour mango specially if there's a spicy bagoong alamang. I just made mine too. Now i am very satisfied. Gusto niyo! uhmmm its really masarap.

$20,000 Meal

2009-08-10T03:56:00.000-07:00

Well, the President Macapagal Arroyo denies the $20,000 meal. It says that it is a black propaganda againts her but who really knows except those people who came along with the trip. God only knows what is she really doing with the money of people that she supposed to take care. If its really the President who paid for the alleged $20, 000 meal then she should be ashame of herself.

Many of her people needs help and yet she enjoy spending that big amount for just a meal. What a waste of money? She should think of those hungry people in her country. Those that have lost their houses due to the recent typhoons. Those that are grieving for the lost of their love ones because of the calamities. Those that people that she keep promising for improvement and those that are unemployed. That big amount can be a big help but instead it was wasted only for a very posh wine and dine.

What is she thinking? If its not her who paid the said meal in Le Cirque in New York and that it was only given by someone as a gift then she should have been practical, to think that it is a big amount to spend. She should instead used it on a productive way. Don't get me wrong but i think spending that amount of money for a meal is too much. As a leader, she should be responsible for her action. Even if its said to be a treat of Romualdez, still its not appropriate to dine for that cost whilst people here in Philippines is suffering from poverty. Most of us are trying to survive for a small amount of food and worst some are not eating. Struggling to survive each day while she is spending that big amount. Its not really appropriate. Anyway, whatever is the truth, its her conscience that will hunt her for life unless she don't have a conscience. Hmmmm... what do you think?

Fried Tilapia and Malunggay Egg Soup

2009-08-07T07:48:00.000-07:00

Alright! I've been thinking earlier what should i prepare for dinner. I want something different. Something simple, easy to cook and cheap. Well i had to be thrifty, had no choice. So i went to a small market nearby to see what can i afford to buy. I've seen fish tilapia and its quite cheap so i buy 4 medium pieces. Now while walking i was thinking how would i cook it... should i fry it? or should i mix it with vegetables? Hmmmm well i have to consider my family too what they would like but i know if i ask they will ask me back. Anyway, i'm the one to cook so they have no choice either..hehehe.

So getting back i decided to make a soup as a side dish upon seeing the Malunggay plant nearby. I will make a healthy soup that i called myself Malunggay Egg Soup. I am going to save money from this since i will not be needing to buy the vegetables as i will only pick it from the street but of course i bought eggs. Aside from that i have picked some Camote leaves for me to make a salad. So that was it, i was able to make a dinner for my family for less than a 100 pesos. I had some fried tilapia fish, Malunggay Egg Soup and Camote leaves salad.

Humba Recipe

2009-08-04T07:38:00.000-07:00

I have made this delicious recipe couple of months ago. Now i was scanning my camera and found the picture i took. Upon looking on it i can't help to feel tempted to make one but i'm trying to control myself because I am on a diet. I must say that this is a comfort food for most Filipino's and its truly tempting.

Ingredients:

· 1 lb. pork (you can used pork belly or pork hocks), cut into serving pieces
· 1 cup water
· 3 cloves garlic, crushed
. 2 pcs onion bulbs, cut into pieces

· 1/4 tsp. pepper or 1 tsp. peppercorns
· 1 tsp. oil
. pieces of banana blossoms

Procedure:

1. Combine all ingredients in a big pot and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for about an hour or until pork belly is tender. You may wish to adjust the taste according to your taste and liking.

2. You can add some potatoes or hard-boiled eggs whichever you prefer.

3.. Remove peppercorns or bay leaf (if used) just before serving. Serve hot.

Note:
You can also add black beans if you like and used pineapple juice or sprite to marinate before bring to a boil

My Old PC

2009-08-04T04:37:00.000-07:00

It's been a while since my last post. I've been in and out to check once in a while but not really able to update. I have been stressed out for a lot of reason and was hindered from using my old desktop computer since i complained a lot about having a headache. For couple of months i managed to do that with the expense of losing a chance to work for some online opportunities.

Now perhaps the time i can slowly get back and do some catching up. I just hope this time i won't be having any problem with my old desktop. I knew i had to replace this and buy a new desktop computer but i still can't afford it right now. As for now i still have the patience to use this. It still work fine though even it sometimes go crazy like the last time my keyboard had stop functioning. I have tried some of the extra keyboards we have but unfortunately it didn't work so i had to buy new one. I was able to replace it with a better one. So far i never have problem with my keyboard except for my computer monitor that have change color which is very annoying since its affects my eye that cause me headache. I can't sometimes help to laugh with dismay whenever i encountered problem with my old desktop computer. I could simply choose to smash it like what my fiance did to his computer but i had to hold back since i have to consider the cost of buying a new one. Anyway i think my old PC was able to take a break as well when i was away. That was a good break i guess.

Taste of Home

2009-04-24T08:02:00.000-07:00

I bought a very cheap and good cook book from a book bazaar last Saturday. It has a very rich recipe contents which make me interested. Aside from that it only cost 35 pesos which is very cheap. I was lucky to get it first since all books that time is very sellable for very cheap price. Actually i never intended to buy one since its not what i went there but since it was very cheap and i love its recipe content, i decided to buy it.

Pinipig Polvoron

2009-04-24T07:48:00.000-07:00

Another sweet treat from Goldilocks. I got it as pasalubong and i love it. I think it is just made out from a powder milk with butter and pinipig. Hmmmm...... maybe i will try to make one some time and see if it taste the same.

Hazel Nut Mousse Cake

2009-04-18T06:29:00.000-07:00

I bought this as a present for my fiance's birthday but i'm afraid i will eat all of this since he is miles away. He said it looks fancy but its just really a simple cake from Goldilocks. I already had a piece of it and in fairness it taste good. Well, i think Goldilocks is well known on their cakes. Anyway, just celebrating the birthday of my baby ko and very much thankful for good health and good blessings. Happy happy birthday baby! This post will be my present as well...hehehe

The Famous David's Cookies

2009-01-07T07:51:00.000-08:00

Baking always fascinate me as i find it very interesting and i guess i may consider myself good in this field. Oh well, just my personal evaluation. Anyhow, i think it's the passion that make the person good. However, i couldn't consider myself good as David Liederman. He was a famous top chef in New York and the man behind the creation of David's Cookies - which specialty is chocolate chip cookies that could be smelled for miles and i guess many have already known him.

Anyway, as the result of his success his recipes won many awards which includes the best chocolate chunk cookie. Right now, David's Cookies had 250 cookie shops throughout the world and they have loads of treats to offer on different events or occasions as well as variety of delicious recipes including my favorite cheesecakes and brownies. Oh gosh! i personally love it and i guess no more diet when it comes to this.

New Year

2008-12-29T08:58:00.000-08:00

Two more days and we will bid goodbye to 2008. We never know what may the year 2009 brings us but what is certain is that we learned some things from the past that makes us a better person. The past years surely had thought us few hard lessons in life which will guide us to become better whenever the new year comes. Well now, a new year is nearly coming again and it will be another journey for all of us. We maybe have success or failures, no one knows. But-well what may the future brings us only God knows. The important thing is that we never lost faith on Him and that we never forget to serve Him as its the ultimate purpose of our existence. Anyways, wishing you all a very Bless and Happy New Year.

Last Minute Shopping

2008-12-24T05:00:00.000-08:00

Undoubtedly, there is still a lot of people who do last minute Christmas shopping nowadays. I have observed that when i was in the mall earlier. As i have seen, the most busiest place is the grocery area where many people are trying to do last minute food shopping for the coming noche buena. Well, its really tiring to shop on the last minute as you will only suffer from long lines when paying and traffic as well. However, people have their own reason why they've end up shopping on the last minute. So as for a tip when doing last minute shopping is that you make a list of the important things you need to buy so that you will not end up wasting time roaming around and have nothing in the end. This is one way to manage your time wisely when doing last minute shopping.

New Templates

2008-12-24T04:39:00.000-08:00

I just pimp my profile yesterday. Not sure though if this will be the final template that i will be using for this blog but as for now i am satisfied as how it looks. Actually, it took me so long to choose this since there is thousand to choose from pimp-my-profile. I have tried a lot but i end up for this one because it's clean and simple. But-well of course there's still something lacking and that's what i'm trying to find out in the next couple of days. I know there is still a lot to update. Anyways, there are still a lot of nice templates to try or maybe if learn how do create my own then it will be much nicer.

Diet Pill

2008-12-17T03:02:00.000-08:00

I have tried taking diet pill the other month. That was when i desperately want to lose weight. Well, i was hoping that it would help me. Now my experience was not really good when i tried Lesofat. I saw the advert on tv just when i'm thinking about losing some extra pounds on my belly. It was very timing then so i tried without researching it first on the net. At first, i thought it didn't work for me because i only took one capsule just for a try and it was 4 days since i took it i never felt anything like discharge or discomfort. So i assume it didn't even affect me.

Anyways, little did i know that the effect on me started right after 4 days. Remember the post i made about my swelling back and hips. Gosh! that was the painful side effects on me. I was really in terrible pain like i almost think of going to a Doctor for a check up. I am not sure why did i have that side effects because according to other people experience which i have read on the net is that you will only have waste discharge which is true but being in terrible pain like what i experience is really unexpected. However, i could say that it is true that it takes off those oil and fats in your body through waste discharge. I would like to try it again but i guess i'm too scared to feel that same terrible pain i've experienced.

My Horoscope

2008-12-09T08:02:00.000-08:00

Reading inspiring thoughts really helps boost one's confidence. Just like what i feel after reading the Friendster Horoscope of Leo ( Jul-23-August 22) . My horoscope today is very inspiring and this is what it said;

The Bottom Line

Take a more difficult route than everyone else. A hard journey rewards handsomely.

In Detail

You are learning to appreciate the fact that when a goal is too easy to attain, it is not as valuable as something that takes your sweat and toil to reach. So don't hesitate to take a more difficult route than everyone else is taking. They might get there faster or more easily, but they are not going to learn as much from the experience. And in the end, your journey will reward you. Your newfound pride will feed your ego and get you noticed by the people who matter.

The thoughts is indeed helpful and its very inspiring not only for me but for all people.

It's not a bad day after all...........

2008-11-26T07:35:00.000-08:00

It was a big mess today, not me or someone but it's our house. We have to get fix the bathroom and Dad has decided to furnish it as well so no one has the chance to used it yet at the moment. We haven't got the chance to even have a bath. The whole day of waiting feeling hot, dirt and sticky due to sweat is really not a good feeling. I couldn't even make myself work feeling uncomfortable but it was not bad after all at least i took my bath later afternoon when the worker gone home. It was a relief feeling refresh. The water is cold and it was really refreshing. Got back my mood and i feel much better. I had made special dinner for all of us since its my sister's birthday. Little nieces have fun playing and we had the chance to chat with sister-in-law at least for couple of hours before they go home. Just simple celebration really....not that extravagant. Well it was not a bad day after all.

Swelling Back and Hips

2008-11-23T07:51:00.000-08:00

Just finished watching Miss Conginality movie of Miss Sandra Bullock. I had a good laugh at it. I suddenly forgot the swelling pain of my back and upper hips ..... but now talking about it i'm feeling it again. I'm sure it will give me hard painful time afterwards on bed. This pain makes me suffered for couple of days now. It comes and it goes and it is really painful. I was thankful i had this liniment named Pau de Arco. It helps me though at least subside the pain. I was kinda worried of this for a while. Well i hope it's nothing too serious to worry about. Anyways, just sharing. I will try to have some good sleep.....i hope..cross my fingers.. that's if the little boy next door won't cry like hell again and wake me up just when i fall asleep. Well i hope so because i badly need my sleep.

Watching King Arthur

2008-11-22T07:16:00.000-08:00

Its been another quite night, all alone....just watching King Arthur while writing this. Well actually it took me time to write this as i don't have any interesting thing to write. ..hmmm not really! maybe i just don't know how to express my thoughts into words. Anyways, got hooked up with the movie with no interest at first. It was really a good one, very inspiring and it gives me teary eye. Well don't want to miss the whole story.... got to end this now and have to finish the movie first. See you.....

Cream-O Biscuit and Cup Noodles .............

2008-11-12T08:01:00.000-08:00

All alone but not home alone. It is just quite as all are already sleeping. My insomnia strikes me again and now found myself browsing around here. I guess the opportunity are hard to catch as well and it's very unpredictable this days. I was thinking maybe that would help me make busy for a while and will make me feel tired i hope but unfortunately there's nothing to work on. I've only got myself here a Cream-O biscuit and a cup noodles that my sister brought here from Japan. It's the last cup so its like a treat to myself since i always have little nieces to share it when they are around most of the time. Well, don't get me wrong here. I love sharing it with them but sometimes you have to keep something for yourself too and besides they are all sleeping now . Oh well, I guess i have to finish it now while its hot.

Don't Wear New Shoes During Christmas

2008-11-08T03:58:00.000-08:00

Christmas is nearly coming and as early as now people are starting to prepare. People will surely have new things for themselves to wear or use on Christmas. Now i had this tip forwarded on me. I am not sure if this is true but i will share it anyway. This is the tip;

"If you have new shoes that you'd like to show off, wear them before or after Christmas."

Maybe you wonder why? According to the source, it is unlucky (malas) to wear new shoes during Christmas. Oh well didn't know about that but i leave it all to you if you believe or not.

Just another day....

2008-11-05T01:07:00.000-08:00

Just another ordinary day had past. Nothing much to do at the moment. I was hoping for an opps to work but i haven't catch one yet so far. I am not sure if the outsourcing job has been also affected by the global financial crisis. Oh well, what am i thinking....of course it's been affected but i guess what i am trying to point out is if how badly it was affected...hmmmm just a thought! I just hope that i will still find writing jobs even at least few. I know i am not that much good in writing but i believe that i can improve myself in the future.

Say Cheese.........

2008-10-23T03:41:00.000-07:00

My niece is having fun posing infront of the camera. She have tried wearing the scarf that i am trying to finish. Hmmm.... am not sure if my fiance would like this. I guess i would buy him a ready made scarf instead.

Kitchen Tips: How to Remove the Smell of Garlic on your Fingers

2008-09-07T23:52:00.000-07:00

We all know that cooking is really fun thing to do but sometimes we hate to prepare ingredients like garlic because it leaves a very strong smell in our hands. Well, this is not going to be a problem anymore because there is one technique i learned to get rid of those smell in you hand after cooking.

The technique is after soaping your hands, touch anything that made of stainless steel like the sink, bowl or knife while rinsing under running water or simply wash some spoons as you wash your hands. That's it, the garlic odor will be gone.

Weather

2008-08-29T09:02:00.000-07:00

The weather is really unpredictable for this past few days. Sometimes it's too hot and later on it rains. The hot weather is surprisingly not good as it really really hot for me. I don't feel like this before when it's hot like in summer but it is really different nowadays. Sometimes i can't help to think that our ozone layer that protects us from too much heat of the sun is really bad now and it starting to show signs or maybe because i have gained few pounds that's why my body reacts but i guess i much believe 90 % is because of the ozone layers situation. I think we have to help each other on saving planet earth because we know that we are the main reason why it was destruct. If we don't act then we have to suffer the consequences it may result in the future. We need to get back the beauty of the nature as soon as possible before it's too late.

Worm's on Chocolate

2008-08-26T07:19:00.000-07:00

Do you love to eat chocolates? Well, i am not sure if you will ever like to eat one after knowing this. I couldn't really believe it myself since it was a very well known chocolate. Yesterday, my sister-in-law visit us and brought a bar of chocolate that she bought at her friend which happen to be working in the factory of the chocolate.

I haven't eat a piece of it yet since i was out for an interview but when i got home they told me that they brought me a chocolate. There was half left on the freezer since they've already eat the half earlier. Later that evening, i have eaten a piece of it and left some for my mum.

When i wake up the day after, my mum told me what she saw on the chocolate. She was about to eat it when she saw worms on it. Oh gross! I want to puke. I haven't noticed it that there was worms because i just eat it without looking. Oh well, i am not really that affected since i've only eaten a bit of it but still it's really disgusting to think about it. I don't think i will ever eat that same chocolate again.

Very Special Love

2008-08-17T11:15:00.000-07:00

I can't help smiling whenever i remember the movie i watched earlier. It is a tagalog movie in titled "Very Special Love". It was funny and inspiring. I love the personality of the lady and of course the story itself as well as the life story of the guy is very touching.

I just realized something about one scene there wherein the guy was crying in front of his father and said

"Why i can't feel that you love me" the father said "it's because you have so much pain in your heart son, that's why and I am sorry that it's me who caused that pain. If i could undo things and correct it, i would still choose you to be my son because i am proud of you and i love you very much"

The guy was longing for love and trying all his life to prove himself to the first family of his father....Oh it was very touching really and of course it ended happily. Nevertheless, I have learned something from it and that is letting go of the pain in our heart in order to move on and live a happy life.

All in all the story was funny though it is not a comedy movie. You will really laugh and can't help smiling when you remember it afterwards. Anyways, i was just sharing some few of my short thoughts right at this very moment. I will be back soon for more updates.

Giant Clam

2008-08-11T08:47:00.000-07:00

This giant clam is featured at TableScape Life on a Plate, a late night tv show about travel and food. Tonights venue is at Bolinao Pangasinan where you can see this giant clams and other seafoods. This giant clam in the snapshot is said to be a 6 year old which has a lot of meat and it is really huge. They are protected here actually and it's only for research since it is considered as one of endangered species. So it is not for sale but in Japan as they said that this clams are made as Sashemi.

For Sale Chorizo

2008-08-10T06:55:00.000-07:00

One of my close friend came earlier to visit me and she had something for sale. It is a meat process food called Chorizo which she and her friend made. She just tried to made it for extra income. Well, i had tried a sample and it taste good but i didn't buy this time as i am out of budget but definitely i will next time. It just reminds me of my high school days when we used to do that as our project in one of our cooking class.

Pinakbet

2008-08-08T05:28:00.000-07:00

I decided to made a vegetable menu for our dinner. I just feel we need it since it is very nutritious. We've been eating dry menus lately so definitely my family would love to have vegetables for a change. It is called Pinakbet. It has 5 different kinds of vegetable in it so it is a very healthy food. It's my father's favorite and i am sure he will definitely appreciate it.

I got a Souvenir

2008-08-07T08:01:00.000-07:00

I got a new key chain from my best friend Mom which originally give by her sister who just flew back here from work abroad. I was kinda late to visit them so that is why there's no "pasalubong" left for me. I told them it's not necessary and it's no need but still Auntie Delia give me something which is the key chain. I accept it and i appreciate their thoughtfulness. I am thankful and like the souvenir very much. It is a little shape fan that came from España and i love it as if i went there....lol. BTW! It's really from Spain because her sister is working on a cruise ship and she already explore some countries mostly in Europe. She had a lot of small souvenirs as well that she put at the door of their fridge and 3 little replica ships that she have work.

Smokin Toppings

2008-08-06T08:06:00.000-07:00

My loving fiance told me that i am in a good mood maybe because of all the chicken and pizza that i have eaten this week....hehehe. Well maybe but the 100 % reason is because i am just inspired and very much in love with him and that i treated myself to eat outside in his favorite sizzling Smokin Toppings. I'd got my favorite chicken menu.

Flower Event

2008-08-05T08:45:00.000-07:00

A beautiful masterpiece of a flower. I really admire this when i saw it at the shopping mall wherein there's an event happening. I have seen loads of flower presentation there that was beautifully arrange uniquely and of course it's not only the arrangement but of course it represent the different flowers itself.

2008-08-03T07:49:00.000-07:00

2008-08-01T09:09:00.000-07:00

I just recently change my blog title, not really sure yet as i am still thinking of a better one but hopefully this one is for good. Anyways i am not really going to stay longer i am just dropping by to write few sentences and make some updates. My thoughts are somewhere out there,i don't know... hehehe so i am afraid i can't write something interesting at the moment but maybe some other time when i can think of better way to improve this.

Craving

2008-07-30T10:58:00.000-07:00

I suddenly felt that i am craving for pasta, pizza, spicy chicken and macaroni. I am looking for the taste of it. Maybe because it's already been a week now that i have only eaten rice, vegetables and oatmeal. I just felt now that i'm looking for a particular taste and i remember what i have eaten a few weeks ago when my friend who just flew back here from her work abroad , treat me to eat outside. We had eaten at Greenwhich Pizza and we have choosen the big time meal which composes of pasta, pizza, chicken, macaroni and ice tea ....Whew! it is really a big meal and it was really satisfying. Now i suddenly crave for those and i am thinking to treat myself over the weekend just to satisfy myself. I can't really wait because i am so excited, i just wish my cravings won't fade off till the weekend :)

First Post

2008-07-28T05:15:00.000-07:00

I was kinda bored today maybe that's why i am here now writing my very first post for my new blog. I'm not really sure what to write though but i guess a short thoughts would be fine. I was hoping to find worthy things to do online. Something that interest me but i guess my thoughts are somewhere. I think i have been browsing for almost 2 hours now and yet it doesn't satisfied me as to what i really want to do. Anyways, i guess i just wanted someone to talk to but unfortunately i had no one here so i was thinking this may help me somehow.
