Birthday Gift Plans

My sister’s birthday is fast approaching it’s actually next week and I’m thinking now what I should be giving her for a birthday present. It’s certainly is easy for sure because she likes almost everything from bags to shoes to clothes. But I’ve been giving her those things almost every year and I want some change this time. I’ve been browsing a lot these days and found some nice Nautica watches that I think would perfectly fit her small wrist. I’m not decided yet but those watches really took my attention because of the styles and the discounts available.

Girl Scouts’ Activities


It was a very busy day as I’ve been with my kids on their Girls Scout All Age Activities Program the whole day. It was a program set by the whole province of Rizal and some towns in Metro Manila like Pasig, Marikina and San Juan. It’s a yearly affair for Girl Scouts of the Philippines and we regularly hold it at Pasig Capitol but this time the venue is at SM Event Center in Taytay. One look at the place and I knew it can’t possibly housed all attendees and after one hour of staying there the managing team of GSP decided to separate Star Scouts from Juniors and Seniors. Star Scouts stayed in the Event Center inside SM while Juniors and Seniors transferred to Parking Area at the basement.

It’s not comfortable there and the speakers were not audible so we just stayed there and participated in some of the activities but the sense of fulfillment of the activities were not felt by the attendees. And since it’s in the mall I just took consolation that at least we can choose any food or restaurant we want. I brought along Josh so he can make some relaxing and strolling at the mall and he’s very happy about it. He ate with gusto at McDonald with his favorite fried chicken and so are his siblings, his two sisters Ruth and Gen.

We finished all activities then I let them roam around the mall taking notes that they particularly likes to enter bookstores like National Bookstore and Precious Pages where there are educational toys and books available for my kids’ age level. Of course they played arcade games in Quantum. Last stop was in the SM Hypermart so I can still have my regular marketing. We’re all very tired when we got home.

Plans For Myself

As I have already filed my resignation two months ago and is currently extending my stay in my work due to my employer’s request I’ve been thinking these days what to do after my resignation. Actually I’m not even sure how long would my extension will be as there’s no one to replace me as of this day. There are applicants but we still haven’t picked anyone. I’m planning that when the time comes that my boss will finally agree that I may be released from my work I will be thinking of a small business aside from paid blogging. I’ve been reading a lot and I browsed about futures trading which is also an opportunity but I really haven’t decided yet what kind of business will I finally settle in.

Accepting The Fact

As my vehicle going home is so slow in moving I saw in details how the people in my neighborhood has slowly trying to accept the fact that they really has to move back. Some garment shop tried to finish orders from them and took advantage of every single day that their areas were not given last deadline of moving back. It’s their only source of living and after the clearing they will be transferred to another business location.

As the days go by the houses who are less affected gets cleared first to initiate fast clearance works. We’ve been doing some reminders for my mom because she’s the one who will instruct the workers on the restoration works. I just called her now from my office and they started to clear our walls and gate now.

Child Dedication

There’ll be a mass child dedication of four babies in our church and one of them asked me to sponsor her baby girl, actually we call sponsors as witnesses. I’ll be sponsoring the granddaughter of our Pastor in the church. Baby Ryza is so cute and you’ll surely like her when you talk to her as she’s so bubbly, she’s 6 months old now. I’ve been thinking of what will I give her on her dedication and decided to shop for baby clothes that will fit her age and looks. On almost all my godsons and goddaughters I always give clothes as gift because I’m so fond of looking and shopping clothes for babies.

Diet Plan Day 2

It simply escaped my mind not to bring food as there’s birthday today in the office. Anyway since it’s not the usual rice and viand I could still eat my food later in the afternoon. So my diet plan for today changed but anyway I’ve fixed it up immediately in my mind and since it’s Lirio’s birthday maybe I could be spared just for today lol!

Breakfast – No coffee again, Chicken breast only

Lunch – Lechon Manok and half rice, pancit (I’ve picked vegetables to lessen the guilt)

Afternoon snack – Corn on the cob

Dinner – Apple

Choosing The Right Diet Pills

I’ve been reading a lot about losing weight and it gives me headache to read all those write ups that sometimes mislead the reader into buying products that didn’t work positively on them. As I’m browsing the net I searched for a site who will not give me a direct brand to buy but instead will educate me on how to choose the right diet pills that will perfectly suit your requirements. As I looked over this site I came to find the best and worst diet pills available in the market. I learned many things through this site including some facts about choosing the right diet pills that will ensure positive results.

Lirio's Birthday!

It’s Lirio’s birthday today and since yesterday we’ve been thinking what would we have for her birthday. Since she doesn’t like cake much and the only cake she likes is chocolate mousse we ordered one in Red Ribbon. You know if you really want to please the celebrant it’s best to give what you think is her preferred flavor. Anyway I know Lirio will say that it’s not that important as the thoughts count most. We also ordered pancit canton as traditionally served on Filipino birthdays as they say “for long life”. To complete our eat-together lunch Lirio ordered lechon manok and softdrinks then rice was cooked here to enjoy newly fresh cooked rice. What a lunch! I ate rice even if it’s my second day diet plan today. You know if it’s a birthday you’re excused lol!

Corner TV Stands

Hubby did some general cleaning of the house and as I can’t carry anything heavy because of my operation he just did it by himself. He always did it at night because he has only one day off for the whole week and he devote it for our Sunday fellowship service. Our house is really big that’s why we need a lot of time for thorough cleaning of the house. Every time we do general cleaning we get to find house equipment and appliances that needs repair or replacement. Well, I need corner tv stands so I’ll have more space in my living room. Got to find some nice tv stands online now so I can have variety of choices.

Orly Came Home For A Short Vacation

My nephew Orly, son of my first cousin Ka Duneng in Laguna came home from his work in Qatar. They informed us that he’ll be here for a short vacation this August. He arrived last Saturday August 2 but we’re busy with a lot of things scheduled weeks before that we didn’t find the time to go to our hometown in Laguna. My Mom and I are a little sad that we can’t go home because Orly is one of my mom’s favorite apo but we don’t have a choice as we’re also busy with the clearing works done by Public Works and Highways. I keep on thinking that I should really have more time to accommodate more activities, hope Orly understands! Anyway by now I’m sure he’s thinking of dropping by in our house! I also missed his chocolates!
