Feels like Forever

I'm still here.. Its been really slow lately at work. I guess we can really fell how bad the economy has has been lately.. We have few customers at the bank and most times we don't really have stuff to do anymore after the reports are done in the morning.. Its been so BORING...

I feel like getting dumber by the second, since I don't have anything to do most of the day, my mind as well basically decided to just stop.. Ugh! for some people they might think I'm crazy for basically demanding to work when I should be thankful getting paid for doing nothing.. But then there's no growth, no productivity, I won't learn anything just by sitting the whole day... I've been trying to keep myself busy.. Answering phones, helping out planning for upcoming birthdays and other surprise events that were having but still its not enough for the whole eight hours..

Hay, I don;t know its just that it feels like forever at work sometimes and for how long its gonna stay this way I don't know.. But I am surely thankful that I still have a job every single day.. But just when people think that this is one superpower, indestructible, financially stable country.. well guess what?? you guys got it wrong...

Goodbye Summer.

OKay, we don't have plans yet of relocating or moving to another place. But I recently saw these moving pods last week , and I decided to get tow boxes already. I find it so useful after doing some clean up in my room, so the stuff that I won't be using for now is neatly kept. Summer clothes are now packed. Fall / Winter clothes will soon be used. How I miss winter, We had a really , really summer, and I just can't wait to have a comforter when we sleep at night this fall . It's starting to get cold actually. So if you have stuff that needs to be neatly packed in sturdy boxes, get some portable storage units.

Room Makeover

Remember I had a room makeover weeks ago? It was actually successful I can say, I was able to dispose a few old items of mine, then I saw some clothes and cosmetics of mine that are still unused and intact. The items needs a separate post though. Right now, I am focused on searching for computer desks , I badly need a new one as I am just using a table with my laptop. I need a desk for more comfort and safety. From what I am seeing, some desks really fits my budget, yes, i dont wanna spend much on this. I hope to have a new one by next week, if time permits , i'll hit the mall with my dad.

No weekend-weekend

Sunday.. 8:40 pm.. So I have 3 hours and 20 minutes left of my weekend.. It was pretty tiring having to work seven days straight.. I worked at the bank Monday to Friday, and since the circus is in town, I worked Thursday till today at the arena.. The first two days I had to go directly from the bank.. Good thing my work at the arena is only part-time which is about 3-4 hours and all I need to do is count money.!! No shopping for me this week..

So what am I gonna do with the remaining part of my weekend??

- I'm watching episode 9 of Hot Shot at youtube..
- At the same time watching the Emmy's
- eating cotton candy I got for free at the circus!!! ( buti na lang inantay kong matapos kundi nagbayad pa ko ng $ 12 for a cotton candy with a paper hat!! haha!)
- here blogging about my week!

Busy week

It was a busy week for me. I have work at the Arena for 4 days in a row because of the circus. It was tiring, but I had fun too when i peeked at the show. No shopping for me this weekend, I plan to just laze around and sleep all day . I just need to check a few things online, like my emails , a few orders and do a little browsing too. My dad also asked me to check some car insurance online , because the one that we have now is expiring soon. He's too busy at work too, so we might get quotations thru the website by this week.

To-do list

here's my list for this week..

1. organize my office table
2. take pictures of some items that I plan to sell
3. update my bank account and print out my own copy
4. pay TFC bill
5. get some health insurance quotes for my
dad.
6.check out my favorite online shopping site, and check if they already have the Hello Kitty necklace in stock.

not too much for this week, i still dont have any plans for the weekend. After too much cleaning lately, i might reward myself with a little shopping.

What's cooking for halloween?

Every year, the bank holds a costume party for its employees, just in time for the Halloween. We had the 60's theme and cowboy/western party already , and i wonder what do we have for this year. I wish we can just come in our own choice of costume, because I wanna be something different this year. I saw a beautiful equestrian clothing at the mall during the weekend, at such a steal price. I am trying to lose a few pounds already, since I wanna look really good with my costume for this year.

why do we need friends ..

Thanks Jesse :)



"We need friends for many reasons,

all throughout the season.

We need friends to comfort us when we are sad,

and to have fun with us when we are glad.

We need friends to give us good advice,

We need someone we can count on,

and treat us nice.

We need friends to remember us

one we have passed sharing memories

that will always last."

health conscious

Its high time that I get into healthy stuff. Im not feeling any pain or discomfort for now , but i believe that one should get the right knowledge of things before it even hits you. I stumbled upon Epocrates a while ago, a reliable and reader friendly website that gives you detailed information about diseases, like for example, Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus , i never thought that there is such type of diabetes. All i know is the diabetes itself. I was able to learn the basic of this type, diagnosis, causes , treatment and even follow up. I never thought I would get curious about this stuff, maybe because Ive been hearing my mom and dad talk about their health lately. Try to make your own online search, and dont forget to share this learning to others.

“This announcement was paid for by Epocrates.”

Last Minute Grabs

I know I said that I won't be shopping a lot for my sis' coming baby.. Since her and my mom obviously didn't even take a break buying stuff!!! I bet the coming princess already have so much stuff, na kahit every hour eh pde sya magpalit ng damit! : ) But then I just can't resist a SALE! So I had a few grabs.. They're on clearance so its pretty cheap..


I got bigger sizes like 6-9 months so it won't fit her for quite sometime... And I know that my mom's going to ship a box already, so FOR NOW the shopping will end...

BE Addict

As I was cleaning my stuff last week.. I've come to realize one thing: I AM SO VAIN!!! : ) I have so many stuff for my face, my hair, my body.. And most of them I really don't use that often... And of course the first place goes to my make-up.. I AM A CERTIFIED BARE MINERALS ADDICT!
I have to say that the ones here on the pictures were the ones I bought and haven't used. I still have my usual kit of Bisque, Medium Foundation, Mineral Veil and a blush on my everyday kit, plus 2 brushes and a Buxom... Yun ang everyday kit ko! hehehe.. I'm planning to maybe selling some of the stuff, I have a few MAC items and Clinique too from a co-worker. Ang dami ko ng make-up, nakakalibre pa ko! : ) The ones on the pic has never been opened, my so-called "reserves".. Oh, here's some of my other kikay stuff:
my hair products depending on the style I want for that day.. : )

I've been using Proactiv for about two years now, and it really did cleared uo my skin although I still have occassional breakouts.. But I love this product.. So yeah, am I Vain or what?!?

Allergy Attack

It's the time of the year again , where most of us here in our household catches allergies. My dad is usually the one who would sneeze, til he gets really down with colds. We have loaded our first aid kit with medicines already. And as I have blooged, we also made some major cleaning around the house. Now, I am thinking of buying this air purifier I've seen at the mall. I have heard really good feedbacks about Blueair . I hope it can give us some relief from allergies, as I feel really down whenever I have an attack.

Another job?

I think I would really need one. I am not leaving my bank job, of course not. I enjoy my work and I love my friends there, but I would like to earn extra money for shopping and additional savings. Getting a job here is not that tough as it is in Manila, you just need not to be choosy at all. I already saw some Los Angeles jobs at the newspaper , and I am only considering the part- time ones since I am on full schedule at the bank. Hopefully, I can get a good - paying one this weekend. Wish me luck.

Day Three... Clean up

Late post... Since I did my super clean up day last Monday... wow the highlight of my three-day weekend.. Took me 6 hours to clean just HALF of my room!! I had to assemble the cable box for my TV, which I did all by myself.... Ahem... : ) then I spent most of the time assembling the shoe organizer I bought at Target.. akala ko kc madali lang i-assemble yun pla as in from scratch gagawin mo!! I am so proud of myself when after probably two hours eh natapos ko din, khit hndi perfect, eto sya:

Each and every cube I have to assemble from scratch! Bwiset! Sana yun assembled na shoe organizer na ang binili ko! It was supposed to be for 15 pairs but since pagod na ko, I only made up until 12... : ) This is only for my work shoes and since I still had a couple pairs left I decided to give it to my mom since I ran out of my space... My other pairs are still in the closet which I never got the chance to clean yet...

I realized I had so many stuff.... You'll be surprised on how much make-up I have and other "vanity" products... hehe.. I'll post it next time..
