*2008*
2008-01-10 22:58:00 Current Mood: It’s a new year which means a new beginning. A time to leave the past behind and look forward into the future. 2007 wasn’t the greatest year for me, but it certainly wasn’t the worst either. There were trials and struggles along the way, but the triumphs and blessings ... More About: 2008
*Where did the time go?*
2007-11-03 07:53:00 Current Mood: I know . . . I have been a very bad blogger. I haven’t posted in over a month. October was just a really hectic month for me with school and family life. My ICS class ended last month on the 26th and I got a B grade for ... More About: Time , The Time
*Celebration*
2007-09-30 12:16:00 Current Mood: Today hubby and I are celebrating our 8th wedding anniversary! Time has passed away so quickly. It seems like only yesterday that we had first met in that online chatroom almost 10 years ago. If you had asked me back then if I could picture myself settling down and ... More About: Celebration
*I?m still here*
2007-08-28 11:24:00 Current Mood: I know I haven’t blogged for over a week and I apologize, but I have a legitimate excuse. As most of you are aware of, I’m taking college courses online so I’ve been spending a lot of time studying and doing assignments. I’m just not used to doing schoolwork again ...
*High School Musical 2*
2007-08-18 10:29:00 Current Mood: Tonight my girls and I watched the premiere of “HSM2″ and we absolutely loved it! I think it’s even better than the first because this movie featured more of the entire main cast so that they all got to shine and show off their talents. Of course my favorites were ...

*Going to College*
2007-08-17 22:14:00 Current Mood: I never thought I would be doing this, but I am heading back to school.

Beach Cruiser Bikes
2007-08-17 22:05:00 As a kid growing up, one of my favorite things to do was ride my bike around the neighborhood. It was a wonderful sensation to have such freedom. I enjoyed being able to transport myself from one location to another on my own. My bike was my most prized possession because ... More About: Beach , Cruiser , Post , Sponsored , Bikes
*Zanessa @ HSM2 Premiere*
2007-08-15 10:53:00 Current Mood: Today was the “High School Musical 2″ premiere in California at Disneyland. I wish my daughters and I could’ve gone to it. I’m sure we would’ve been there if we were still living in Anaheim. Vanessa looked absolutely stunning tonight. She’s such a natural beauty and it’s no ... More About: Premiere , Remi , Premier
*Comments are back*
2007-08-10 21:30:00 Current Mood: My sincere apologies to all my visitors who dropped by my blog and weren’t able to post a comment. I didn’t know there was a problem until this morning when I received an email from my Sis Mindy about it. I had tried to install a new plugin and it wouldn’t work so I tried to fix the problem myself, but apparently I made it worse. My website hosting company just fixed it for me so commenting is up and running once again. I’ve learned my lesson. No more messing with coding. I’ll leave it to the experts now. Until next time, I leave you all with positive thoughts and feelings of gratitude. More About: Comments , Back
*A true role model*
2007-08-09 23:00:00 Current Mood: Growing up I wanted to have a role model in the mainstream entertainment industry that was a Filipina-American like me, but unfortunately there weren’t any to be found. Now that I’m a Mom it’s such a delight to find that there is one for my daughters and she is Vanessa Anne Hudgens of the “High School Musical” phenomenon. “Baby V” or “Nessa” as she is affectionately nicknamed by fans is such a sweetheart and definitely someone I don’t mind my girls looking up to. In fact, I admire her myself because she seems so down-to-earth and level-headed. I think her mother did an incredible job of raising her with good family values and morals. I really like the fact that she’s very proud to be a Filipina because I’ve been trying to nurture that same pride in my oldest daughter Ange who is a big fan of Vanessa and the rest of the “High School Musical” cast. I think with all the negative pub... More About: Model , True , Role , Role Model
*Financial woes*
2007-08-09 20:32:00 Current Mood: You’d think that since my hubby is working towards an accounting degree and is already working in that field right now that he would be able to figure out our finances, but that isn’t the case. Hubby is the exact opposite of what you would expect. He can’t save money at all. He’s always spending it. I’ve tried to save here and there, but his spending habits force me to have to use any extra money I’ve put aside to pay for bills and other necessities. Sometimes I get so mad and frustrated at him because I don’t want to keep living paycheck to paycheck, but at the rate he’s been going at it I’m afraid we’ll have to. Only last night did it dawn on him that his spending habits are out of control. I was like “Well, it’s about time you wake up to reality Dear!” I love my hubby, but things have got to change. Until next time, I leave you all with positive thoughts and feelings of gratitude. More About: Financial , Finan , Fina
*Wonderful news*
2007-08-08 20:06:00 Current Mood: OMG! Hubby just called me from his work and told me that the guy he was training the past two days to take over his position at the hotel only lasted two days!

*Here we go again*
2007-08-07 01:16:00 Current Mood: Hubby dropped a bomb on me last week and I’m still having a hard time with it. He’s getting laid off from his job at the hotel. Apparently management did away with one of the positions there and hubby is getting bumped off from his from someone who has higher ...
*Busy Busy*
2007-08-03 02:06:00 Current Mood: I apologize for not posting in over a week, but life around here has been hectic. My Ange just started school yesterday so we were getting ready for it.

*My girls are growing up*
2007-07-25 11:30:00 Current Mood: I had to go to Ange’s school this morning for what I thought would be a special orientation for the third graders and their parents.

Comparison Shopping
2007-07-20 01:22:00 I like to window shop at the mall because it gives me the opportunity to compare prices of various items I’m interested in buying at all the different retail stores.

*Happy Birthday Lani Fae!*
2007-07-14 18:15:00 Current Mood: How ironic that I woke up a little after the exact time this morning that she was born three years ago, but even moreso the fact that Lani Fae was already up before me.
