Excited

I am still not done shopping for some pasalubongs for May, I still need to buy some more for my friends. I am planning to have a big box shipped by April, so come May, I only have my luggage with me. I bought this really nice one from the mall, of course, it bears my favorite trusted Brand. I got it a a very good price and I never had second thoughts of purchasing it. I just wanna carry this one around when I come home on May. I first thought of getting pink, but I decided to get one in a very nice shade of red, so i can easily spot my luggage at the carousel. Will post pictures soon.

I need a break

A lot of things to do at work.. a lot of online assignments too. I am preparing for my Manila trip already, and i can't help but feel excited.

For the mean time.. let me do some tasks first.

Be back.

More money for shopping

If you are running out of cash but would like to do more shopping, and your credit line is almost hitting its mark, why not apply for a card that can give you an approval even if you have current bad credits? Credit cards for bad credit is offered now adays, so you don't have to worry if you have outstanding balances with some other companies. Once approved, you can now use the card for your transactions such as bills , groceries and shopping. Gone are the days that you should have a good credit when applying for credit cards. Bad credit credit cards are the biggest thing to have now, apply online to have your own now.

Coffee talk




What Your Latte Says About You



You don't treat yourself very often. You find that indulging doesn't jibe with your very disciplined life.



You can be quite silly at times, but you know when to buckle down and be serious.



Intense and energetic, you aren't completely happy unless you are bouncing off the walls.



You're addicted to caffeine. There's no denying it.



You are a child at heart, and you don't ever miss the opportunity to do something playful.



You are deep and thoughtful, but you are never withdrawn.

Rehabilitation at it's finest

Drug Addiction is really our society's biggest problem nowadays. I have seen a lot of victims here in our area, and I know how their families suffer with that too. They do their best by sending their loved ones to a rehabilitation center. But gone are the days of those old traditional ones. Did you know that there's a high - end drug rehab called Sunset Malibu? it is located near the beach front, and they have a very good program for drugs and even alcohol addiction. Each program is specially designed for very individual patient. They have state of tha art facilities too, so you wont feel like you are in a center.

A week of being Sick

Thank goodness that after a week of being sick, I started to feel better last Thursday. Hay, ang hirap kapag maysakit no! It started two Fridays ago when while chatting with my niece I suddenly felt that my throat huts so much and its hard to swallow. Then last weekend all I did was lay in bed which totally ruins all my shopping plans! I am trying to keep a schedule since I'm planning to have all my pasalubongs shipped ahead of my trip. I don't have any plans on bringing a huge balikbayan box with me in May! I am so sick that I can't even eat and I really felt so weak. So cough and colds really kept me up the whole night.

The thing is, I even showed up to work Monday since the first week of the month is such a busy time for us, and one of my co-workers is on vacation for two weeks and I have to do his job! Hay, imagine me those days... It was really hard getting up to go to work every single morning when all your body wanted was to really be in bed. To make matters worst, some of my co-workers also started to get sick. Sneezing and coughing can be heard just everywhere! Hahaha! Pasencya na dahil sa hindi ako mkapag call-in so magdusa tayong lahat!!

So my boss, Robin, came up with the best idea ever. Last Wednesday, she made us some chicken and rice soup and even brought her own crockpot to keep it warm the whole time. It was like "feed the sick day" for us at work. I have some of my co-workers brought some tea, honey and lemon and I have to say that it really worked. I just realized on how they are really such a bunch of workaholics around here. I mean I do know some friends of mine in Manila who would call in sick from work just because they don't want to work that day! And in here, kulang na lang eh may mini clinic kami at lahat pumapasok pa din! I liked it in a way, where it really shows devotion to work and how my co-workers have really treated me so much like my extended family here. But at the same time, I cant' help but think that if I am in Manila I don't think I have to bust my @ss of to go to work every single day and drag myself to go when I am sick..

So right there, take a peek how life is working here.

Vegas again

I have been to Vegas once with my cousins from LA. It' s been a while since I visited this place and I'm really excited with my officemate's plan to visit the place by June. There's a lot os places to see there, and of course who would want to miss the casinos right? Nothing is definite yet with ourplans, but we are checking on some Vegas hotel already, because it would be better to book in advance to avail of great discounts. I have a lot of scheduled vacations for this year, because i feel really stressed with work recently, and I just need it to keep me sane.

Write Impression

It's been busy lately at work so I wasn't able to blog for quite some time. We will be having auditor's for this month, and we have tons of meeting to attend, and reports to finish. I was assigned to look for some souvenir items for our clients too. I thought of these advertising pens that could help us promote the bank, and at the same time, I find it useful for the receiver. They can attach it to their checkbooks too. I presented sample pictures of different pens to my supervisor, and we are just cgossing the pen brand and colors. I wish heavy work will be lessened byt his week. I feel so tired.

My new challenge

Being a mall rat on weekdays and weekends has a lot of benefits on my part. Aside from getting good items on sale, I am aware of all the items at the mall. Ask me about baby stuff, hardware, home decors, and I can lead you to the best spot. Last week, my mom asked me to accompany her at the ladies section because She needs to grab something formal for an office dinner. This is where my patience was tested. The designs that we like are for the smaller frames, and since my mom in a plus size already, we really had a hard time looking for one. Online shopping to the rescue, I grabbed her a black dress that's flattering to her. Thanks to plus size clothing store, everything is just a click away.

Cell Phones

Gone are the days when you used to have a long checklist of things you needed before going out the door: your camera, planner, iPod, your cellphone. Ever since Apple launch its iPhone a couple of months ago, I am still raving aboui it until now. The moment I saw its ad on the TV I knew that I have to get one. I think that it is really one cool stuff. Although we have to admit that long before iPhone came into the picture, it was Blackeberry that dominated the field of communication technology. Its an amazing product, one of the first to launch email capabilities from your cellphone, it changed the way people look at such handheld device.
Although BlackBerry Phone has been around for years, and Apple's iphone has just been on the market for a couple of months, comparisons are being made between these two products. I personally opted for the iPHone since it has that very modern appeal especially being the first touchscreen cellphone released. It lean towards the younger demographic as well, young professionals who are busy working 24/7 and are always on the phone would choose something so edgy, innovative, very modern with a really slick design. Blackberry has always been a classic while iPhone is modern. And besides Apple is also a well-known name with regards to breakthrough in the modern technology. So, I guess since people will always crave for something new and more modern, iPhone and Blackberry will always have their share of users up until something new will come along.. But for me, I am still loving my iPhone every single moment! I am looking for those sites who does Cell Phones Unlocked because I need to have mine unlocked when I visit manila. So far, Puremobile.com has that service and I will bring my iphone there so i can enjoy it in manila too.

I'm Back and I'm Furious

Since I haven't been on a blogging mode lately, I really had some thoughts in that I need to let out! I am not really feeling good since last night and feel like catching a cold, but who cares?!? I needed to vent this time as my emotions are still high! Hahaha.. Here's comes the B!*ch in me..

I've read on my sis' blog about some latest gossips in Manila, and one of them was when Gretchen walked out of a scheduled appearance in a showbiz talk show in ABS. So that got me curious and waited for The Buzz the next day to see if they have the chika about what happened. Ever since I've seen her clip when she visited Claudine after she gave birth, I definitely knew she was up to something... SHE WAS TRYING HARD TO BE LIKE VICTORIA BECKHAM!!! Hairstyle was a give- away of course, but then I figured Posh's bob really became popular.. But then when I saw the clips of her alleged "walk-out" from the said t.v. show, damn! I am furious... With the super skinny body frame, to the very fashionista look for a tv guesting.. And this is when all hell break loose for me: So, nag wwalk-out na nga sya, then a couple of fans were there na nag ask to take some pictures and she stopped and stike a pose totally like Posh! Call me crazy but I know na ginagaya nya talaga si Victoria.

Sure she was once a popular artista but hey I never saw her posed like that before. And I've also heard na medyo na okray na din cya ni Kris Aquino on her morning show for trying to be like Posh.. Hahaha.. It just boggles me for the fact that , if she thinks, she already know who she is, with her designer clothes, stunning jewelries and rich lifestyle..then why in the hell do you have to copy somebody else's style?!? She's been on the business way before the Spice Girls so she should have her own image by now. Oh and the "walk-out" I don't believe even a second of it and I think that its somewhat staged, you know why? Here's what I've observed:

Wasn't it too convenient that the camera crew for The Buzz was also there? Well, they've said before that they were conducting an interview with her..So I guess that's fine.

If you were too upset and felt disrespected why did you allow cameras to still shoot you while walking out?

And napaka habang walk out naman ang nangyari! I was amazed that they don't have an exit directly from their studios to the parking lot for celebrities. Lumabas pa si Gretchen, as in sa labas ng compound ng ABS-CBN before she got in to her car?!? Which is totally unbelievable!

Things have to change in how show business runs in our country, it is still too mababaw and overly dramatic at times, when they have to know that people are way smarter than what they perceived to be! I was gonna post photos for comparisons, but I think you guys can already judge for yourselves. Surely do hope you can watch that video clip of her "walk-out".
