For sometime now, I’ve been thinking of what kind of jewelry to wear with my gown. I thought of making a beaded necklace and I think it would be nice but I have something really old that I want to wear. The necklace is over ninety years old. It was my grandmother’s and her mother gave it to her when she was I think eight years old. When I was still young, my lola showed me the necklace and told me how old it was and that she’d like me to keep it. I rarely wear the jewelry, maybe once or twice. I’m just in awe every time I look at it and it reminds me of lola. 
The background is a photo of my great great grandparents, Anastacia and Andrea.
Have you noticed that some local TV personalities started losing some pounds and they are wearing skimpier clothes? Like Juday for example. I even saw one photo of her looking like a Pussycat doll, costume wise. Anyway, I wonder if the thinning capsule really works or is it because these people have some extra money to spare.
I only have a month (because I want to look nice in my dress for my friend’s wedding, hee!) to trim down and I started yesterday. I drank a lot of water and ate less carbo. I’m planning to convince myself to do this for awhile. My plan also involves avoiding going to food blogs and scanning food magazines because it makes me insanely hungry. I have a month, that’s thirty days.
Note to self: Please cooperate!

this site. I’m not so much into fashion, I’m not even updated. I might mislead you, but fashion isn’t all there is in her blog. I just love reading her posts about everything in general. 
I’m not feeling so good today. I think I’m going to catch a big cold and I’m a little dizzy. I actually just want to put all these random thoughts on a piece of net space so I’d feel a little relaxed so now, here I am jabbering away.
Okay, I sort of anticipated the the last installment of Stephenie Meyer’s vampire saga. I actually feel a little (just a little) embarrased reading her novels because I think it’s too “teen” for me. Growing up is inevitable, you know. Maybe it’s just me or maybe the book’s just so… uh, I don’t even know how to describe it. A phrase that’s probably a little related to my thoughts would be too surreally syrupy sweet. Or maybe I’m just exaggerating. Pardon me because there’s also a hapless romantic inside of this little nutshell that is me. I just have too many maybes about it right now. The pit bottom of all these, I have this weird thirst for blood, joking! I like vampires—yes, a boring and perennial reason, everyone.
Then lately, I’ve been seeing a lot of HDR on the net and I was intrigued so I downloaded a software called Photomatix Pro and tried it out. I have to say that I like those kind of sharp dreamy-like photos. This tutorial is really tons of help. Just want to share with you what I had come up with….
Tada!

nothing spectaculah, really! hahaha!
Apart from my little experiment, I also came up with a promo for one of our company’s products. For the nth time, it really sucks that I don’t get to win those HK disneyland package prize. But, so much for my ranting, here’s the little layout i made.

That’s it. I’m done. Happy weekend, everyone!

Okay, I was checking my Multiply inbox when I read Deanne’s blog entry. I can’t open the original site so I pasted here what Deanne chose to post. It’s very insightful. It’s another way you can look at it. Something positive, really.
I had other relationships with accompanying lessons, but all these happened so long ago, and the memories, though pleasant, are now far removed from my present reality. What remains relevant is what I learned from these women about women. As teachers go, girlfriends are the best source of learning for men about women.
I am forever grateful to all the women I’ve gone with for being the “angels” that they were, who taught me, each in her own way, how to understand women and how to love the one I am spending the rest of my life with better.

I’ve been meaning to write about my weekend getaway since last Sunday night. Pero dahil sa gusto ko may photos ang entry, hindi pa ako makapagpost. I can’t pick from the photos pa. Sana lang hindi ko katamaran mag ayos ng pictures for the entry. Will post about the raves soon.
I’ve been unconsciuosly asking myself that question lately. I have too many plans, I want to do so many things but I don’t know where to start or when. Yes, I’m really not speaking clearly and this is gonna be vague. I mean want to start a business, like selling stuff in Multiply. I also want to pursue photography and graphics design and I’m working on it. Mark and I are also planning to put up like a video editing biz. I’m psyched about it because I get to do graphics. I want to travel basically to take photos . But I have to have financial resources to do that. That is why I’m thinking about all these stuff. And of course saving up is a major deal. I just wish everything will fall into place . I want things to go as planned. I know it’ll be fun especially when I get to do what i like ;p .
I just want to lay my feet somewhere sandy with salt water and landscapes nearby to take photos.
I’ve seen some travel blogs lately and I just can’t help but drool. I mean, there are a lot of really amazing photos plastered on their sites accompanied by a visually stimulating entry. I especially love the beaches. I’m a sucker for sun and sand (funny, I don’t like swimming in the sea ) I’ve been saying this a lot but for the nth time, I just want the photos! Soon, very soon I would be beach hopping. Woohoo!
While walking earlier to play badminton, a thought occurred to me and that was I really don’t need a lot of things to be happy. It was an odd moment for me to be driving into realizations, I know. I just thought that I could buy whatever I want, eat wherever or shop for anything, that’s easy but it’s also temporary. All I really, really want is the smile on my loved ones’ faces whenever I buy something for them or the laughter that we share when we dine out, the unending and amusing stories that I hear about their lives, and the tight hugs I get for just co-existing with them. Those are the moments that could give me incomparable bliss. And that idea that I am appreciated, loved and indispensable is very self-gratifying.
