While trying to organize my photos, I chanced upon my old photographs taken just before I had Ozzy. I was a party girl. I was out almost every weekend. I was with friends most of the time. I was selfish and self-absorbed. I had fun. I drank. I came home late.

I was not a bad girl really. I would always ask permission and tell mom where I am, who I’m with and what I’m doing. I was just a typical 20-something with nothing else much better to do. Read more… »

Ozzy is sick right now, he has fever and is very weak. I’m not sure if it’s because of his teething or if it’s because he was stressed out by our recently concluded trip to Hong Kong.

I should be the one getting sick and taken cared of. The trip was fun and all, but gosh….the sheer amount of walking involved?!! I felt like my feet was stabbed a million times. My boots were surprisingly comfortable though.

Off topic: It’s my mom’s 54th birthday today, happy birthday to the coolest most understanding mother in the world. I know you will not be able to read this given that you are technologically challenged, but i just want to say how much I love you. I appreciate everything you have done and sacrificed for me and for our family. Thank you!

Anyway…pictures of our trip…………yehey!:) Read more… »

Tagged - All About Christmas

Goody! My very first TAG. I got tagged by my new pretty online friend, Jenny.

I am Tagging: Mitch, Diane, Merydith & Kaye

  1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? ~ I would prefer a nicely wrapped gift with a big ribbon. It’s more fun opening them up.
  2. Real tree or Artificial? ~ I’ve seen a real Christmas tree once, it doesn’t look as ‘real’ as I thought it would, so I choose an Artificial tree since it still looks good plus it would be easier to handle, clean up & decorate without constantly spraying it with water to keep it from drying up.
  3. When do you put up the tree? ~ We normally put it up on the 1st week of Christmas right after Halloween.
  4. When do you take the tree down? ~ Mid-January.
  5. Do you like egg nog? ~ Well, I have not tried it, But I want to. How does it even taste like?
  6. Favorite gift received as a child? ~ Barbies. I remember I loved how shiny new Barbie hair was. I would comb it until it would frizz then cut it all off. You know just for fun. Yes, I am weird. I know.
  7. Hardest person to buy for? ~ My parents. I feel like they have everything they need already! I am always at a loss when buying for them. Things are never too nice or always too expensive.
  8. Easiest person to buy for? ~ Joshua. He will never complain. (well, at least for now. I can’t say for next Christmas)
  9. Do you have a nativity scene? ~ We used to. No nativity scene this year. Yet. (mom wants one but she the scene she likes may be too expensive)
  10. Mail or email Christmas cards? ~ Snail Mail. It’s much more personal that way.
  11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? ~ I can’t recall. Maybe because mabaw lang ko ug kalipay.
  12. Favorite Christmas Movie? ~ I just saw the Holiday and I loved it, I also liked the movie Love Actually.
  13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? ~ After the bonus has been released. So that means this weekend, good luck to me.
  14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? ~ Well, no.
  15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? ~ Lechon, My lola’s spaghetti and chicken salad.
  16. Clear lights or colored on the tree? ~ I personally prefer to have clear lights.
  17. Favorite Christmas song? ~ Pasko na Sinta ko.
  18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? ~ We travel. I haven’t had Christmas at home for a long time.
  19. Can you name all of Santa’s reindeer’s? ~ Rudolf, Blixen..? Haha. That’s about it.
  20. Angel on the tree top or a star? ~ Star. A big shiny star.
  21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? ~ EVE!!! I can’t sleep through the night knowing my presents are there waiting to be opened.
  22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? ~ I hate that there are too many people in the malls/grocery. Every year, I always promise myself I do the shopping earlier. But, the thing is, malls have sale after the bonus is released, so naturally I buy during this time. I am hopeless.
  23. Favorite ornament theme or color? ~ Hmm…that made me think. White&Gold.
  24. Favorite for Christmas dinner? ~ Ham with lotsa sweet sauce.
  25. What do you want for Christmas this year? ~ Nothing, I already have everything I need. Everything else is material pleasures.
  26. Who is most likely to respond to this? ~ Mitch
  27. Who is least likely to respond to this? ~ Diane Lao
