Summaries
Wow! This blog sure need an update. Well, I might be able to do that when I start to get used to my new schedule. My son just started kindergarten so I'm a little excited, but surreal as I'm not used to our house being quiet early in the morning. :) I'm still not used to not hearing him call "mommy!!!" every five minutes :) Maybe this Monday I will be able to concentrate in updating this blog. Will post some pictures that I haven't had the chance to transfer in my hard drive yet and hopefully I can post it here as well. So, till then! :) Thanks for those who have visited me while I was in my hibernation stage :) Will do the favor as soon as I get the chance. Take care all!
The month of May is about to end folks and when June comes, more warm weather for all of us. With that, most of us are thinking of heading out to the beach! Lake Shore here isn’t a bad place to go to, but sometimes it’s just too crowded that you can’t find a spot wherein you can just relax and enjoy the sun. We always have to like go during weekdays so it is not that crowded. It's alright though, a nice place around here.But, if you are in New Jersey or are planning to visit New Jersey, start with the Jersey Shore. I heard that New Jersey water parks are supposed to be some of the best in the United States. By the way, Morey’s Pier has an upcoming Radio Disney Summer Concert Series from the end of June until August. So, that’s a great reason for all of us to plan a New Jersey Vacation specially if you have kids. The concert is free, so it’s a total package already. Great water parks and free concert to go with it.
I cannot believe that my hubby is still talking about American Idol. He woke me up at 6 o'clock in the morning just to say that Adam Lambert is so good that Queen wants to talk to him. As sleepy head as I am, in my mind I said, "Who Queen, the Queen of England,? No way!!! He's not that good for the Queen of England to talk to him." Before I can even say anything out loud, he repeated it and said, Queen, the band. ehehehehe That makes total sense... Queen the rock band... He even said, Adam didn't get the title because the people who like him (like himself->hubby) didn't vote, so Kris got the title. Whatever! I still like Kris Allen :)
I have been very busy with my “extra curricular” activities here and so I never had the chance to check my online accounts regularly, whether it is my email, bank, blogs, Paypal accounts etc. Today, I finally found that spare time and was able to peek at all of them. It didn’t surprised me when I found out that it has been a year already and my web hosting company charged me for another year again. However, what surprised me was how they increased their rates! I don’t think I received a notice or something that they’ll be increasing their rates. It is so disappointing, but, I’m not going to dwell on that. I’m more on dwelling on the solution. The solution is to find a new web hosting company. I know, there are a lot of them out there but web hosting rating is my key to that problem. They provide us with the top 10 web-hosting providers, which would also lead us to helpful information such as their hosting plans, features, and reviews, ratings and comments by their satisfied customers. How about knowing the Four Key Points on Multiple Domain Hosting? That’s just one of the articles you can read on their site too. So, if you are new and still doesn’t know the ins and outs of web hosting and looking for one (for either personal or business use) then Web Hosting Rating will save you all the hassle of going through hundreds of web hosting sites out there. Check it out and you will not be sorry you did.
I am so ecstatic Kris Allen won! From the very beginning he's the one that I like the most. Yay!!! Unbelievable! Sorry, never liked Adam Lambert. He's just so dramatic and over the top and just don't like him (and so as his voice)... looks "plastic" and "suplado", even when he's smiling. (Sorry Aling Tikya) :) Since hubby saw Adam Lambert singing, he's been predicting that he's going to be the A.I. bleh! He was wrong eheheheheAnyways, this is my favorite part of the Finale Show.. Kris Allen singing with Keith Urban.
It is another start of my work week (my online job-data entry) and so far no work has been put out. I checked my facebook and I had an invitation from one of my friends. An invitation to Farm Town game/application on facebook. Since I'm not busy, I checked it out and guess what? I'm addicted to it already! Yup that quick! Bless, it's your fault eheheehhe Thanks for the invite though. Love, love the game!
Wow! How time really flies. It has been a year since I was sworn-in to be an American citizen. I can remember still how I was cramming to study for the test/interview early April last year. Wew! I'm just thankful that it's all over with. But darn! It's that long but still never get the chance to get me or my kid a passport. Tsk!
Another attraction in the Mall of America is called Ocean Adventure... and here are some of our photos:Ocean adventure is cool, but they are going through some renovations, plus you can't touch the stingrays anymore... just the starfish and some other "creatures" that I really don't know which or what.
It's settled. Hubby said we are going to Bloomington, MN on April 7th. We are gonna be traveling by car and yeah it's a looooonnng way.. About 6 hours from Chicago. It's a long drive for him eheheheh poor hubby. The plan is to get up early on April 7th, vote (for mayor and etc here in our city) then off to MN. So I think we need to do some packing now.
Hubby is planning a little get-away sometime this week.. Maybe Holy Week. He wants to take us to the Mall of America in Minnesota. FYI, hubby lived in MN for some years and I think he misses it :) Anyways, he wants Kuletz to see the amusement park there in MOA and the Ocean Adventure. We'll see how it goes :)
Today Kuletz and I are spending the night at my friend's house... My son loves it when we spend soooo much time in their house. Ash is 8 already but they like playing together. They'd have little fights here and there but they don't wanna stop playing once they get along again. Nobody wants to leave whether we are at their house or in our house :)
I got this email from a good friend of mine and I say this is probably the truth about friendship :) Not those typical stuff we get on our email that always sound good and not even close to reality. Here it goes:1. When you are sad - I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad.2. When you are blue - I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.3. When you smile - I will know you are thinking of something that I would probably want to be involved in.4. When you are scared - I will rag you about it every chance I get until you're NOT.5. When you are worried - I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be until you quit whining.6. When you are confused - I will try to use only little words.7. When you are sick - Stay the hell away from me until you are well again. I don't want whatever you have.8. When you fall - I will laugh at your clumsy ass, but I'll help you up.9. This is my oath.... I pledge it to the end. 'Why?' you may ask; because you are my friend.You can snatch and re-post this if you want and tag 10 of your closest friends and you'd get depressed because you can only think of 4 :P
Our plan today was to go to Chuck E. Cheese's so our kiddo here can play some of his favorite arcade games, but unfortunately, the place was so crowded because there are some kids who are celebrating their birthdays there. So as usual, we ended up going somewhere else. It was a good decision though, because the place is better than Chuck E. Cheese's. It's called Haunted Trails. It's like CC too because it has a restaurant inside and a lot of arcade games but outside they also have a tornado ride, mini golf, a separate go carts for adults and kids, batting cage, and a mini roller coaster (which was under repair). He enjoyed it specially the go cart ride with his daddy. :) I didn't get a good picture in the go car.. they all came out dark.
Since we were not able to go to the Shedd aquarium, my son has been telling his daddy about wanting to see some fish. So, the dad decided to take him to the pet store. He checked out all the fishes but ended up buying a bird. I don't know why. :) So here is his new pet bird. This is just like his last parakeet, the only difference is that the last one that died is blue and this one is yellow green. He chose this one by the way.
We are supposed to go to the Shedd Aquarium again, but the line is soooooooooo long and we found out that the whales, dolphins and penguins are on vacation because their area are being renovated. Since Adler's Planetarium is right next to The Shedd Aquarium, we went there instead.Here are some of the photos:he commented on this photo when we reviewed it, he said, "mommy look, i'm sleeping" :DKuletz took this photothis is supposed to look like an article in a newspaper :D
I am a little bit tired tonight, but unfortunately, I still can’t go to sleep. I feel bloated, so I just sat on the bed and started flipping channels. Incidentally, one show that caught my attention was talking about feeling bloated and so as fatigue, gaining weight, skin problems and low energy. They are linking these symptoms to our colon being, as I understand, intoxicated. By the way, one of the functions of our colon is to digest and absorb nutrients from food. Therefore, if we are not in the habit of eating healthy foods, the possibility of building up mucus in the colon is an absolute. Hence, buildups produce toxins that can poison our body. To prevent this, some suggest colon cleansing. I have never heard of many Colon Cleanse products, so I searched the Internet. Dr. Natura.com is one of the sites that I have seen and visited. They are the most popular resource of body cleansing and detox programs and products. If you are interested, you can check their website as well to learn everything about colon cleansing and detoxification. Read the stories of their satisfied customers too. As they say, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
My friend Che and Aling Tess sent a text message today telling me that Francis Magalona, The Master Rapper and the Man From Manila, who was also an actor and host, has passed away. He lost his battle to the dreaded Leukemia. I know that it was a great loss to the Philippines' showbiz industry. Some of his songs that I love the most are Mga Kababayan, Cold Summer Nights and Kaleidoscope World.Francis "Kiko" MagalonaMay you rest in peace
Today my hubby and me are celebrating our 9th year of being married to each other. Can't believe that it was that long already :) How did I survive or how did he survive? That's a million dollar question... eheheehe... Since it's Thursday he has to go to work so no going out I guess...But as always he gave me his presents last night (he always like to give it sometimes a day early whether it's just a card or a piece of chocolate).Here are the photos taken by Kuletz (I must say he's getting good in taking pictures :D)a cute bear, looks like a polar bear my fave turtle candy and a nice cardyellow roses? i can't believe he gave me yellow roses...aren't those for your sick grandmas?oh well, i guess guys don't know much aboutthe meaning of flowers :Di don't either :P
I have never attended a party in a while and this one is a blast! I had fun. It was my friend's 30th birthday. She invited me as early as December so she said I don't have a reason not to attend since she told me about it waaay early. It was Lingerie Themed Party and no men was allowed to attend ehehehehe. It was exclusively for girls and girls only. :DHere's one of the many photos:the birthday girl, yours truly C and J
...made it to the Philippines! I've been watching Anthony's travel from different countries and have waited for him to visit the Philippines. Finally! Here's a sneak preview... found it on youtube.com. It'll be shown here on Monday, Feb. 16th on Travel Channel.
I won't forget this day, because today is the very first time that my hubby allowed me to drive by myself!! Imagine that! This driving is really long overdue and I'm glad that he trusted me to go ahead and do it. Since it's my first time, I was a bit nervous but it was all good. :) I went to the store and back without any problem. :)
Never heard of this guy's name before but it seems like he's all over you tube so I checked him out. He's good.. sounds just like the original... This is one of my Journey's favorite songs... Open Arms.
