Christmas Season

0 Spot It!

Yep! It’s last day of November and tomorrow is December, it means, there’s only 24 days before Christmas but for some very odd reason, I don’t feel so Christmassy (yup! I made that up!) at all! I know I’m excited to spend the holidays here but at the same time,I’m not 100% happy because we have to spend it away from hubs,but it’s ok,I know after a few months of waiting,he’ll be here with us and all of us will fly back to US.

Anyway, I haven’t done any Christmas shopping yet and I’m not sure if I would. I’m so not into it. Just by the look of it, I know that my nieces and nephews will be more happy if I give them money instead,so they could buy whatever they want instead of me browsing the store and end up buying something they don’t even like at all.It doesn’t really matter even if it is a diamond ring or other types of jewelries for my nieces or expensive gadget for the boys, if they don’t like it,it’ll be worthless. At least with money, they have the liberty to spend it anyway they want,specially here in the Philippines where gift exchange or return is not a common practice. Cash is the most practical gift to give.

Friends From Afar
A lot of people say that friends you met online are not really friends unless there’s a personal communication that happen from time to time, and in most cases, it is also the location that makes it hard to keep up with.But that’s not the case with us, I met these three and other gorgeous mommies online,thru blogging and eventually became my Facebook friends. Our location didn’t matter to maintain our friendship.Finally, after more than a year, we were given a chance to meet personally last...

My Fingers Are In Pain
For some reason, for the past few days, I feel some pain in my fingers,as in all of it. Although it’s manageable but still its bothersome. It’s the reason why I wasn’t able to finish my zeal transcend goggles article yesterday. It is actually my last task but my my working fingers can’t take it anymore and I need to take a break. I feel it’s more painful specially in the morning. I will try to take some pain medication and hopefully it’s nothing serious.

Too Hot!
As of this writing, the Yahoo! weather indicator says it’s currently 84 degrees considering that this month we’re supposedly “cold” month. Even the sun outside is scorching hot, you can literally fry an egg on the ground and did I say,it’s only 9 o’ clock in the morning? It’s the reason why I need to buy another pair of cheap sunglasses. The one that I bought back in Canada is overused,I need to have another one as an alternative.If my plan with my cousin of going to Divisoria later today...

Enjoying A Simple Life
I know for a fact that my country,Philippines, is not the greatest country in the world, even way too far to become one. There are a lot of people that don’t know how to follow simple rules, the city is very traffic and polluted,lots of street children roaming the road instead of being in school, the city’s brick wall is full of vandalism by displaying the name of it’s officials. But guess what? I like living here.I like the simple approach to life of many Filipinos. We have a high tolerance, we just let things go as long as it doesn’t affect our daily life, we don’t get ...

Less Time Online
I spent less time online since we got here. But not on purpose,blame it to a slow internet connection we have at home. I’m using a prepaid Sun Broadband and I’m glad it’s only prepaid, because I’m not gonna pay monthly for this kind of crappy service.That’s why I minimized my online presence by logging in only when I needed to. Like to check my emails and if I have any task,other than that, I stay away from my computer because I couldn’t stand the lousy and slow service. Anyway, it’s weekend...

Goodbye,October. . .
. . .Hello,November!!!!! wow! Time really flies and within two months, we will all bid goodbye to 2011 to welcome the 2012. I didn’t even know what happen to my October. All I know,I was in Canada two weeks ago trying to keep myself warm as the weather temperature keeps going down,but now,I’m here in the Philippines beating the hot weather. It is a long weekend holiday here in the Philippines in the celebration of All Souls Day. My youngest sister and I decided to visit our parents grave on Sunday because we want to bring the kids with us and it is impossible to do it today or even tomorrow. ...
