I got cursed!

Poor me, I have given this opportunity just recently that was almost worth $9 but when curse hit me, $9's also gone by the wind.
This was the scenario, I checked my email and found out I have a task, so I took time to write this 200 words post to meet the deadline. So, while I was trying to submit the post and its link, it just didn't go through for some reason. There was an error occurred that hindered me to post it, so I went back and re-arranged everything I thought was wrong. There wasn't any, actually! So, i went back to submit it again and then again for another time, it just didn't work. I was pissed and frustrated. Task will most likely be up in a day so there's no way I have to wait for another day. Same thing I did. I went back to fix those errors that are really NOT errors. Holy Moly, What in the hell is wrong with that???? I spent time and effort just to submit the post on time and then for some reason it couldn't work perfectly.
I got cursed! But I digress!. Too much! Anyway, how y’all folks doing?? If ever you encountered the same way, please let me know and let's share this agony!..


Till next time buddies!

Get Skype! Get connected!

If I have to live back in ancient time, I would have missed this modern technology. As far as convenience is concern, technology has saved me from a lot of circumstances. Lately, I am fond in using Skype as my means to communicate to any of my relatives and friends across the globe.

With Skype, I could be able to video/voice call them anytime I want without thinking of the charges I might incurred. It's really the faster way to get connected. Well, if given a chance to experience living in my grandparent’s time that would be awesome! But, I'm sure I would always want to go back in this modern time when everything else is beyond reach!

So Have you all  downloaded Skype?. You should be!.

Buying First Home Benefits

Good News everyone!
Who among you are still not done in filing taxes yet? I have relatives and friends who live in the States and they have been very busy lately for filing their taxes.I was just talking to a friend of mine who's really excited in claiming her tax credit since she just gave birth on her first child plus they bought a house years ago.She told me she is expecting for more credits this time compared from the amount of money she got last year.Well, the good news for her and for all of you who are just first time homebuyers or those who have not owned in the last three years can received as much as $8000 tax credit. This is really fantastic deal for buying first home. At this point where everyone is having a hard time dealing with economy, prices all go up, it's a good thing to receive good amount of money out of credit. It is really something to look forward to. I am sure my relatives and friends are so excited for this as this money can go along way in paying their debts off. A lot of people can totally benefit from this so as long as you meet the entire requirements which was fully discussed in this article.


Due to the number of scenarios in which first time home owners find themselves, it is important to research and fully understand this tax credit in order to receive the maximum benefit.

Movie marathon 3

Here again is another two thumbs up movies you might want to check out!
The Blind Side

For those who have seen the movie, you will agree that it's incredible!
It made me cry though! I would watch any movies with Sandra Bullock! God, she's amazing!
For those who have not seen it yet, better do it! it's heart breaking and all good.Next is
Cheaper by the Dozen

I so love this watching with my entire family. It brings closeness and unity to every family.
Steve Martin is probably one of my favorite actors.
You don't need to spend a lot of money for your weekend to be special,it just takes wonderful movies to make every weekend a blast!

Car insurance

Having your own car or wheels is very convenient if traveling is one of the things you love to do. Cars are now considered necessity for some people especially if public transportation is hard in one's location. Buying your own car means allotting some money to have your car an insurance new auto. Car accident is something that we would try our very best to avoid. But as they say, accidents happen even when you least expect it.

My friend who just recently bought a new car made sure she has dealt with a good insurance company that offered her a great deal for insurance new car. It's better to understand each policies and standard rules since there are a lot of insurance companies in the market that might differ in some terms. It’s nice to know that my friend got to know this insurance new for her new car to free her from worries and be responsible enough as a car owner and driver.

I'm finally back!!

I terribly missed you guys and  doing daily rounds to your pages to read your posts.
And I am so thrilled to post and update my blog as well. I haven't been on much lately due to work and there were a lot of things happened recently, both good and not. But on the lighter note, I'm finally back! I missed my CONSTANT FOLLOWER label, that's who I was before, right?
I just hope everyone had a very wonderful valentines day. I spent mine with my family and friends in Subic and had a blast! I'll be posting some pics later on, but for now, Il'' be frequently on to the blogosphere world, and I'll seee you around folks!


Did you miss my visits and Ec drops? You better be!!!!

So, If I were you, tagged yourselves!

I can't even get a title for this post!

Sue me for being lazy this days for not updating and not even around in awhile, although EC dropping is still being taken care of, then probably we're calling it truce.

Half of my time lately is being engaged in reading books. I missed the old days where I usually grab something to read. And now, I'm trying to get back in the loop. I went online, checked in Shelfari where I get tons of recommendation of books to read. I now have a complete set on the list for 2010 books. Currently, I'm reading The Shadows of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon, courtesy of my manager. I have to return it in a week though.
Come last week of February, I'll be taking exam for Masters. Sometimes, I wanted to pursue another degree, MBA i think. But there were a few times when I don't feel like going to back to school to study again but thinking that it would be a plus factor so I could be way competitive in the future, is enough for me to consider going to GRADUATE SCHOOL this time.. And another thing is, I'm feeling blessed at this since I'm one of those people who are not degraded to go to school, that's the contrary I guess.
Oh well, Sometimes, I feel I really don't push myself on what I really want to do. The problem is ME! I have lots of interest, but I'm pretty sure there's one thing on the TOP of everything. I don't know. But maybe you know. Tell me, Should I go and aim for my Masters Degree and study again or NO?


Darn it, never mind! Thanks for reading!

laughing out load!

Today was really freakin' hilarious. I was laughing all day long while chatting to my new found friends. I won't go in details but this day has been a nice to remember though. Sadly, I have to end my day going to my professor's wake.It's sad and always been sad going in a burial. And I hate goodbyes all the time. To put on the brighter side, I'm learning to love each day that passes. Each day is a day to remember and build good memories.
Have a hilarious weekdays!



till then,

My MOM's day off from WORRIES

When everything else is well-planned, there's no way it would end up a mess. I’ve been lurking around for the past three weeks of a good treat for my mom's birthday and as I did mention in my previous post, a relaxing spa is definitely on the list, and finally, my mom's birthday was indeed memorable to her and to us.

My sis and I took a half day off from work so we could pick up mom at home by 3.She was still clueless on where on earth we'll bring her. When we're around in Roxas Boulevard Manila, she thought maybe we'll set for a quick snack in Harbour Square. And she was wrong. We passed through a lot of fancy restaurants along the way, and she almost end up  asking on why we're off to dine when in fact she prepared food at home.

To put her out in a misery, we arrived in Wensha Spa. And she was stunningly surprised...

All the spa treatments includes a buffet meal and a choice of shabu shabu. Prices are a bit okay. And each guest are allowed to stay for as long as 6 hours to enjoy the inclusive amenities just like Jacuzzi and Sauna Area.

Before we walked to the locker area, one attendant gave us pair of slippers and had our shoes surrendered in return.We were given a sensor key lock for our lockers to ensure security of our belongings. I had number 52 locker,mom's got 13 and sister got 97..

Lockers Area was spacious enough and clean. Mom took a picture of me.

 

Then we abruptly wore our bathrobes on.  Each guest should wear bathrobe provided by Wensha Spa especially if you're going to head off to dining or to massage area. Mom and I took the time to pose for a picture although it’s really not allowed for protection of guest as they say.

And finally we headed to relaxing Jacuzzi and Sauna Area. It has a wide screen television just like in the movie house. I really felt so surprised when everyone else is walking NAKED… really naked. Although men's area was distinctively separated from women's area, we felt a little uncomfortable at first with the setting. . Since it was our first time there, we really have no idea with what was going on. I've been into other spa before, but it wasn't like this. But we managed to ride on. And everyone else doesn't seem to care to each other. That's nice or else it might add up to awkward feeling...haha.. Taking pictures were again prohibited of course...you now know the reason behind it. But I happened to have a quick shot of mom.

 

After sometime, mom headed off to Foot Spa Area and while we had our early dinner. I was mesmerized with their Foot Spa area. It was a very nice ambiance. It was pretty dark inside but I managed to take a night mode shot for mom. She was watching news while the attendant was doing her spa.

I so love the dining areas. The food is okay but not something that you would brag about. It's just fine. But I did enjoy the unlimited ice cream.

After dinner, we went to the Body Massage area together with Mom after she just got her Foot Spa. And it was absolutely good though there were few times when I felt like the therapist was going to break my bones but she seemed so nice to asked me from time to time if she's getting a little hard on me. But afterwards, I felt so relaxed. Mom said the therapist was well trained.

We did have fun. I felt like it was also my birthday. It's really a good family bonding. Too bad my father wasn't there, he had work. But our stories and pictures were enough for him to prove that my mom did enjoy her birthday. That's really our goal, to make our MAMA feel so loved and special.

Before going home, we managed to took some pictures outside Wensha Spa.

 When we arrived home, We couldn't miss the day passed without our dear mother have her wish on her cake and we sang the Happy Birthday Song for her...

They headed off to Laffline Comedy Bar for some late at night entertainment. I didn't make it since I'm sleepy from the massage..I would never have second thought in spending money for my MAMA.. Life is too short for her not to enjoy it. We'll only have one mother in the world, but we have a lifetime to prove our LOVE to her.. And I'm glad she's our MOTHER.

PayPal Wishlist

As I opened up my mail, I got a surprised that I received earnings from PayPal WishList. The instructions given to join were just easy and I figured I could give it a try since I have a Facebook account.

There's again another reason for me to spend..hahaha..
Blessings really come when you needed it the most..haha..
Since pretty mom Kathy of Woman, Abbey Mae and Mom and a Warrior has been asking me for a coffee treat, I couldn't say no for this. So Kathy let me know when could we grab a cup of coffee..hahaha..

SoGoPro a little community, my HOME

There is little community out that can make you really feel at home and unique.

I found a lot of friends, great friends I should say even if we're across the globe. Distance didn't matter to build friendship. Cultures are at no stake. Language is not a barrier. Age brings no difference. It's just it. We're just friends by heart. And this month, it has been a year since the first blog where we feel like all connected as ONE.


I’m talking about SoGoPro. This is where I feel belong, and will always be my home.
Happy 1st year SoGoPro!!!

Tiger Award

I love this award given by my two good friends Jenny of  the way i use to be and David of Basic Blogonomics. Well, according to them, the tiger award is about wishing everyone to have a good health and prosperity on the year around.


Thanks for this! I really appreciate the two of you for sending me this.
I'd love to send this to my friends but it seemed that we shared the same circle of friends and it is already being sent to them.

Unplanned plan.....

I feel like I haven't been around in ages but not with my friends who I see to it to make my daily rounds as usual.

My mom's birthday is tomorrow and I'll be taking a half day off from work so I could possibly make things done by tomorrow as what we've planned. We'll be taking our mom in a spa somewhere in Pasay where if you probably know Mall of Asia or the biggest mall in Asia is just a few blocks from it.
So, the little treat of spa would cover everything from a full body massage to foot spa. Use of Jacuzzi and sauna bath is inclusive. A choice of buffet meal will be served either for lunch or dinner. After that, we'll head for a dinner and if my mother is adventurously enough, we'll let her try the Bungee Jumping. And everything else is still tentative. We're still looking on what to do on mom's special day. But a Spa treat is definitely a must for my super worrier mother. :)..I’ll tell you the whole details the day after tomorrow and probably share some pictures too :)..
