weekend cleaning
2008-04-13 05:26:00 I love weekends. We used to visit our parents in Quezon City during the weekends and it provides a break for Ramil and me. Lately though, we’ve taken to staying in our house to cut down on our gas expenses. We never realized that it will also be just as fun and relaxing. It’s still ... More About: Cleaning , Weekend
summer transformation
2008-04-11 17:38:00 I’ve always been amazed at how the school transforms into a boisterous and rambunctious venue during most of the school year from an almost gloomy and dusty place during summer. I’m just pointing it out now because I had a chance to look around the school again this afternoon. Devoid of teachers because of the summer ... More About: Summer , Teaching , Transformation
techie gift for my geeky hubby
2008-04-11 16:58:00 Ramil’s birthday, as I’ve mentioned before, is already coming up and I still haven’t gotten him a gift. That’s because he just wouldn’t say what he would like to get for his birthday. Stubborn man! It’s a good thing though that I’m more stubborn than he is. Because after much prodding and negotiation I was able ... More About: Techie , Gift , Geeky

2008-04-10 04:22:00 As I’ve mentioned in my previous post, I was supposed to give Ramil a bottle of perfume for his birthday. Now that he’s told me that he want something else, I can’t help but try to come up with another idea on my own. Although he has several ideas on his mind already, I’ve also ... More About: Gift

doodles
2008-04-10 04:03:00 Mateo loves doodling now. He even holds his pencil or pen the right way. A few weeks before Mateo turned one, I bought some big crayons and decided to let him try them.

our plans for our millions
2008-04-09 15:38:00 Ramil and I would sometimes try our luck with the lottery. Most of the time, we’d get enticed whenever the prize money is really big already.

mateo mall time
2008-04-08 15:51:00 Since its summer and there’s no work for teachers like Ramil and me, we find ourselves heading for the mall these days. It’s funny because once we get there, we often just walk around and window-shop. Of course, Mateo would often tag-along and we’d always end up wishing we left him at home. Hehe! Yesterday, ...

a girl?s investment
2008-04-06 12:17:00 My mom is the type of woman who loved jewelries. She has an assortment of them: gold, silver, different gemstones, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, rings, and anklets. I remember that when I was younger, I would excitedly look on whenever she’d open her jewelry box and get ready to go out. She’s given me a few ... More About: Investment , Girl
slooow weaning
2008-03-25 15:21:00 At 14 months, Mateo still feeds from my breasts. Although he also takes in formula milk whenever I’m not home, I can say that for the past 14 months, he gets his milk from me 70% of the time.

up against a wall
2008-03-13 16:18:00 This is how I would want hackers and viruses to be. So I guess I need a good computer security software like ESET smart security.

for those who love drama
2008-03-13 14:05:00 For the past few days, I’ve been hooked on reading this blog by some Australian guy. It’s like a real-life telenovela.

clingy Mateo
2008-03-13 13:46:00 Mateo has been very clingy these past few days. Ever since we came back from Bora, he has been like my shadow or an extra appendage. I’m guessing it’s because for four days, we were together for 24 hours. I’m finding it difficult to do simple things like going to the bathroom. He doesn’t want ... More About: Motherhood , Mateo

Manila Water: passing the cost of investment to consumers?

2008-03-06 20:36:00 We’re back! We stayed in Boracay for three days and two nights only. How we wish it was longer.

Nevertheless, despite the travel and our much emptier wallets, it was worth it. My ... More About: Trip , Part , Mateo
