Well, I guess I should at least start updating this blog. So maybe, just a little update about what am I up to these past few months...

To start with, I am still stuck in this boondocks where I am doomed to rot in the next few months. Not that I am not happy spending my time with my husband and son here; but heck, I am not used to being stuck and in some remote place at that. Good thing, broadband connection is now available here and I can still connect with my friends and the outside world. Well, I don't know if I can live without Internet now so I guess it's a good thing really.

And as I don't have a job right now, I've decided to make myself useful even for a bit. I am on a small business (well, really small that not everyone here noticed actually); I am offering printing services which includes document and photo prints. Occasionally, and when there is a need to, I also design and create invitation cards; photo invitation cards mostly. There are other tiny bit of details but I won't mention them here anymore. I might end up in jail if I do... Haha. And oh, wonder why i said really small? I don't have a lot of customers, that's why. Mostly because I never did any ads for this; just a small sign outside the house. :D

Oh, I guess I have to say "gtg" now. Hehe. I just have to do something. But, I will make another post later today. No promises, though. Just in case I might not be able to do it... Anyway, I hope we all have a great day ahead.

And oh, Advance Merry Christmas to everybody! :D

Okay, so I am guilty! Guilty of procrastinating and not fulfilling my promises to keep this blog updated regularly. :D

Actually, I've got loads of things to post everyday. I am just not sure now if I'm still good enough to write; my mind's getting rusty and it's bad. :(

Just finished watching "Twilight" (ugh! just a copy from a torrent site). Uh oh, people from the "prod" out there, don't be angry hehe. As much as I would love to see this film on the wide screen... I just can't! No movie house in town and none even in nearby town. Haha! Talk about living the primitive way. Anyway, the nearest movie house is a 3-hour drive away so I guess you will forgive me now.

Well, now that I've seen the film, it was awesome (at least for the hopeless romantics like me.. hehehe..) And you know what? I just can't get enough of it that I've immediately downloaded a copy of ebook for each of the Twilight Saga written by Stephenie Meyer. Again, my apologies that I can't buy the books... No bookstore nearby.... sigh... and besides I don't have enough money to spend right now... or should I say I don't have money at all... Haha..

Oh well! I'm outta here. I'm going to start reading those ebooks I've downloaded...

See Yah!

It's been almost a month since I last saw my mother. And I realized missed her. I missed all of them so much. I remember when she and my father accompanied me to the bus station, I cried. Like I always did when I am bidding them goodbye.

And I'd like to dedicate this song to my ever-loving Mom...

The Perfect Fan
Artist(Band):Backstreet Boys


It takes a lot to know what is love
It's not the big things, but the little things
That can mean enough
A lot of prayers to get me through
And there is never a day that passes by
I don't think of you
You were always there for me
Pushing me and guiding me
Always to succeed

Chorus:
You showed me
When I was young just how to grow
You showed me
Everything that I should know
You showed me
Just how to walk without your hands
'Cause mom you always were
The perfect fan

God has been so good (ohh)
Blessing me with a family
Who did all they could (ohhh)
And I've had many years of grace
And it flatters me when I see the smile on your face
I wanna thank you for what you've done
In hopes I can give back to you
And be the perfect son

Chrous:
You showed me
When I was young just how to grow
You showed me
Everything that I should know
You showed me
Just how to walk without your hands
'Cause mom yo always were
The perfect fan

Bridge:
You showed me how to love (you showed me how to love)
You showed me how to care (showed me how to care)
And you showed me that you would
Always be there (always be there)
I wanna thank you for that time
And I'm proud to say you're mine

Chrous:
You showed me (you showed me)
When I was young just how to grow
You showed me
Everything that I should know
You showed me
Just how to walk without your hands
'Cause mom you always were
The perfect fan

'Cause mom you always were
Mom you always were
mom you always were
You know you always were
'Cause mom you always were
The perfect fan

I love you mom!

Just Stand Up Lyrics
(Various Artists)


Beyonce: The heart is stronger than you think,
It’s like it can go through anything.
And even when you think it can’t it finds a way to still push on, though

Carrie: Sometimes you want to run away, Ain’t got the patience for the pain
And if you don’t believe it look into, your heart the beat goes on

Rihanna: I’m tellin’ you that,

Rihanna/Miley: Things get better, Through whatever

Rihanna: If you fall, dust it off, don’t let up

Sheryl: Don’t you know you can go be your own miracle

Beyonce: You need to know

CHORUS :
Sheryl: If the mind keeps thinking you’ve had enough, But the heart keeps telling you don’t give up

Sheryl/Beyonce: Who are we to be..questioning, wondering what is what
Don’t give up…THROUGH IT ALL, JUST STAND UP!

Fergie: It’s like we all have better days
Problems getting all up in your face

Leona: Just because you go through it

Fergie: Don’t mean it got to take control, no

Leona: You ain’t gotta find no hiding place

Keyshia: Because the heart can beat the hate

Leona: Don’t wanna let your mind keep playin’ you

Keyshia: And sayin’ you can’t go on

Rihanna: I’m tellin’ you that

Miley: Things get better
Through whatever

Rihanna: If you fall

Miley: Dust if off, don’t let up

LeAnn: Don’t you know you

Natasha: Can go

LeAnn: Be your own

Natasha: Miracle

Carrie: You need to know

Ensemble: CHORUS

Mary: You don’t gotta be a prisoner in your mind

Ciara: If you fall, dust it off

Mary: You can live your life

Rihanna/Carrie: Yeah

Mary: Let your heart be your guide

Rihanna/Carrie: Yeah yeah yeah

Mariah: And you will know that you’re good if you trust in the good

Ashanti: Everything will be alright, yeah
Light up the dark, if you follow your heart

Mary: And it will get better

Mariah: Through whatever

CHORUS

Fergie: You got it in you, find it within
You got in now, find it within now
You got in you, find it within
You got in now, find it within now
You got in you, find it within
Find it within you, find it within

Everyone: THROUGH IT ALL, JUST STAND UP!


* I just love this song. And can't help but stop whatever I am doing whenever it's being played on MTV or MYX. Glad it's number 1 in MYX! It deserves the spot. Way to go; Just Stand Up!

I am greeting myself! Hehe

Birthday Cake.... I wish!


And balloons...

Oh, all of these are just in pictures. Hahaha. No party for me this year. No money to spend since I still don't have a work. But anyway, my little Xanjho and my hubby Jho are more than enough to cheer me up.

I want to thank everyone who greeted me and those that are yet to do so... :D

Haven't read from me lately, no?

I was also wondering why I haven't done any post for a while. After all, I am not that busy. Oh well, maybe I am just not in the mood to do any post. Maybe, it started when I was scammed by someone whom I know only by the name of Kevin Flynn. But no excuses... I am back on the scene. Hehe.

And oh, today is my brother's birthday and they are having a little celebration at home. It's just sad that I can't be with them because I am living far from them. And few hours from now, I will be celebrating mine, also far from them. But, I am not very sad as I am with my hubby and our little angel, Xanjho.

Well folks, keep those gifts coming and I will be counting... Hehe :)

I was browsing the photos stored in my laptop looking for photos to put some frames on (I've downloaded Easy Photo Frame). Then, I have come across my old pics... Ah, I never realized just how much I missed my former colleagues at US Auto Parts (Phils.) until now... Not that I don't remember them... it's just I am talking to most of them most of the time through YM... Makes me feel we're just in the good old Legazpi office again...

Back to the photos, I've come across pretty much actually and I've decided to post some of them here.... some even have frames... hehehe....

Here they are:

After resigning from USAIntel.com, I decided to be a work at home mom. And it's been almost a month. I miss working in an office. But, I just can't deny the fact that I am happy and contented that I am earning a modest amount from my freelance writing gigs while being a full time mom. Now, that's priceless!

However, with the surging prices of basic commodities, the "modest amount" just ain't enough. Especially that we need to keep all Xanjho's needs met. So, I am borrowing this small space from my blog to announce that I am NOW ACCEPTING FREELANCE JOBS!!! Hehe...

Basically, I can do writing gigs, data entry jobs and VA functions... If anyone is interested, you can leave a message here... :)

So, what is Victory Hair? I think this is what you can achieve when you meet a good looking guy or girl and then you end up with each other; both of your hair pretty messed up and with smiles on your faces. Now, that’s a pretty interesting scenario, isn’t it? You bet because not everybody ends up like this. But, here are some tips for you so you can also end up with a Victory Hair;

1. 1. Charm your way into a man’s or woman’s heart by being sincere with your intentions. The ‘gentleman’ factor for men is a good factor.

2. 2. If you are a guy, you can ask the girl for a date. But, don’t be overly generous if you can’t. Being honest and true to your self is a must if you want to impress a date.

3. 3. Don’t be overly aggressive. Some are getting turned off with this kind of attitude.

4. 4. Befriend the guy’s or gal’s friends and make ways to get close to his/her family.

You can follow these tips or you may not. It’s up to you to decide. Or maybe you could use these as guides and come up with your own strategies.



But, if you want a hands-on training on how to achieve this Victory Hair, you can try the online Ultimate Flirting Championship game created by Extreme Style by VO5. You can visit the game’s site, enter and register and create your profile. Then, you can customize your avatar according to your desire such as choosing your own hair style. And viola! You are ready to try flirting online! Come on, try the game and see for yourself. After all, practice makes perfect. :D

Time really flies so fast... It seems that only yesterday Xanjho was born. And now, he is turning 1 year old. Yes, it's going to be his special day on Saturday, August 9. We've been busy preparing for that day since last week. I feel kinda tired along with other works I have to do but in spite of that, I am satisfied that I am personally organizing my son's birthday party.

I designed his birthday invitation. I printed them. And I'm going to be the one to bake his birthday cake. Well, I'm quite nervous about this part since it's my first time to design a 2-tier cake. But, I know it will be alright. It has to be, it's for the most precious son of mine so it has to be.

As of this moment, everything that we will need for the preparation of his party (from foods to reception) are all ready. Tomorrow, we're going to make the salad, maja blanca and the cake. Wish me luck. Hehe.

I will be posting pictures after the party. :)
