Phone Stalking
Ever experienced receiving anonymous phone calls (either they just listen to you are hung up after you say "hello")? Sometimes I do, and it gets so annoying because you would think the caller is someone important (in my case, crew who have urgent concerns) and all. I just wish we have a National Phone Registry like the US. Saw this website and it's very useful especially if you want to know who has...

In Zara With my Family
It's been a while since my family and I went "window shopping"... together! Usually we break into groups (boys and girls) then just meet when it's time to go home or it's time to eat. Yesterday however, we were in one place: Zara.I got to check out some stuff and gash... I am digging those boots. Mom...

Need For a New Bag
... and it ain't for me! Well, I just noticed that Eanna's diaper bag is too big for our short trips to the mall. It was ok when there were a lot of things to bring back when she was a few months old, plus there was that stroller (yes, we have one, but not being used now) where we can hang the bag.Now...

Our Kid's Names
Tagged by IsshChild’s Name: Eanna Marie Why the name: Ever since, I liked the name/term Eanna. It's a Sumerian place the principal temple of the goddess Inanna. Rough translation is "house of the heavens." Supposedly her second name is Alessandra (my father's name is Alexander) but since her birth date fell on Sept 8, we decided that her second name be Marie, in honor of Mama Mary. Now if we had a...
Tempted to Give Another Try?
While paying for the grocery, a sales person approached me and informed me that I am eligible to get the new Citibank-Rustans credit card. At first I declined immediately, given the "past" I had with Citibank (hello... Citibank personnel using my info and calling me back after a heated argument... called me a b*atch and slammed the phone on me; card continuously being used even if account - which...

To Loan or Not?
Since I’m in the “budgeting our finances” mode, and that I’m still planning to get the items in our wish list, maybe I should resort to applying for Personal Loans. I initially thought of availing our company’s Personal Loan benefit, but this would only give me an amount equivalent to my one month salary. I already got the soft loan benefit to managers for our down payment of our condo, so I can’t...

TV-Living Area Rework
If you live in a condo, won't you just love to have a pop up tv like this to save more space and have room for more cabinetry?This however would mean that you should get an LCD or plasma TV too. reason why I suddenly *wished* to have this is because while I was watching TV last night, I noticed how...

Will Philam Be Affected?
Yesterday my colleagues and I talked about the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy, and since AIG was into the picture, one commented... "So, do I still pay my balance in my AIG Card and should I check other international credit cards to replace it?"Of course, it was a joke, but the issue itself is no joke. Fears of this shaking the Finance world down to its core have not yet disappeared, and a lot of people...
Faulty Faucet
Sheeps. We might have to replace our faucet in the master's bathroom. The flow of water is not nice (some spurts in various directions). It kinda reminds me of something, but don't want to post here (hint: call of nature for women). Other than this, the shower head of the common bathroom is broken too. I reported this already to the Condo Admin but still no word from them as to when they will replace...
Poor Sister (Part II)
I've got something to recommend already for her "acne"! Well, it really did not take long for me to think of one. I suddenly remembered that Mario Badescu Drying lotion is one of the products I considered buying during the time when I was breaking out a bit. Plus I also remembered Martha Stewart recommending...
Poor Sister
Just got a text from my dear sister, asking me what acne treatment I would recommend for her to use. See, she had this cluster of little bumps in her cheek, and because she was so annoyed and impatient for them bumps to be gone, she kept on picking on them, until the cluster got big and now very visible. My Mom and I warned her before, but she didn't listen, and now she's paying the price.Since I...
Family Bonding Fave
For weeks now, my family has been crazy over popcorn! Every Sunday dinner at my Grandma's house, us "kids" always ask for popcorn and when served, the bowl does not even have one minute before it becomes empty. And now that this Sunday is going to be a big family event (you know, the Ateneo vs La Salle finals) which will be held in our Grandma's family room (poor us, we were unable to buy tickets...
Allergic Me
Ack. For weeks now I have been having allergic reactions to almost anything. My eyes are watery and itchy. I'm continuously sniffing like crazy. I get blotches in my face. I get a nasty cold 75% of the time. Before, my allergy was my perfect excuse to either skip class or be absent at work. It has kept me from having my own pets (no dogs, no cats, thus no need for pet maintenance like cat supplies)....

To Switch or Not to Switch?
Eanna's pedia has advised me to give her Nido Jr. or Anchor instead of Nan-1, her current milk. Though I'm sure both are healthy and good for kids, I still feel hesitant in giving her milk other than Nan-1. Probably because I'm still in denial that my baby is now a toddler? Or perhaps I feel that she still needs the nutrients from Nan-1 because she still hasn't that much appetite to sustain her throughout...
Auto Loans and Budgeting
Last weekend my Dad has asked me if we're pushing through with our plans to get a new car/SUV. This was a sad talk for us (at least for me), because I suddenly realized that since dear hubby will go home earlier than expected and might leave later than expected, our budget might have to be tightened a bit. Plus, I also realized that next year will be the start of our regular amortization, and since...
Game 1 - 21 Sept 2008
I am sooo excited right now for the UAAP finals, with the Ateneo and La Salle vying for the top spot. I really really hope Ateneo will win this time. Our team had a history of sweeping the games then suddenly choke at the finals. Oh, I do hope this will not happen this time. We want that Championship badly!Hmm... wonder if my Dad bought tickets already for the game. Well, if not, I think this will...
Latina Singles
Every time I watch CSI Miami, I cannot help but notice all those gorgeous and sexy Latina girls. It thus makes me come to a conclusion that there really is something about them that makes them irresistible. Heck, just take a look at the roster of Latin actors in Hollywood and you'd get what I mean.Anyway, there's a website that's a venue where Latina Singles can meet. Joining is for free, and profiles...

Eanna The Shopper
Last weekend my little baby and I went to Powerplant after her 1-year check-up with her doc. When in Zara, she was so amazed with the clothes and all, she wanted to walk by herself. Everybody were complimenting how well she walks and how cute she is (One teener even said... Awww. I wanna have a baby......
Urban Bazaar @ Powerplant
[Image from ClicktheCity]I must say that last weekend's Urban Bazaar was my favorite one to date. There was more variety, clothes were better, and new shops joined it. What's nice is that this will be held every month till Christmas! Yipee, dear hubby will finally be with me the next time I go there....

Feeling Down
... But hopefully this will be in passing. Ok here goes... I'm fairly a tolerant person but I think it's too much already. You know, you think things are settled already and are ok, then you realize it has never been ok because deep inside, there's this deep-rooted feeling - I don't know, insecurity perhaps? - that's really the main reason for whatever issue it was that you have tried to resolve?...

Car Insurance Part 2
Since we are in this topic, if ever dear hubby never had any insurance for our car right now, I think I have to suggest to him that if ever we will push through with us buying a new one (very different from my original version of me gifting him with one hahaha, it now depends on the budget), then I guess we have to check out the best online car insurance quotes and packages that would suit us best....

Car Insurance
My officemate had a really big gash in her car because of a minor accident (self-inflicted hahaha). Estimated cost of repair is kind of expensive, and it made me wonder if our car is insured. Well, I am a fairly "defensive" driver and I don't take chances, but I'm not so sure about the other drivers out there. Some proved to be very reckless, you know. Anyway, I checked our records and I found out...

Stand Up To C
I have watched this very nice TV advertisement regarding standing up to C, meaning Cancer, and I was really touched with the way it appealed to the people. Cancer, from breast to lung to mesothelioma, has affected millions of lives - not only those afflicted with it but the families and relatives of those stricken as well. I dread this disease because people all the while think that they are healthy...

Tweeze Me
I was just preparing to leave the office and go home, so I went to the rest room to freshen up a bit, and to the horror of my horrors, I found tiny dots in my eyebrow area. I suddenly realized that this was caused by my tweezing talent and how poorly I did the deed. Earlier I took off some stray hairs...
The Collector
I was trying to begin fixing our home in preparation for the coming of dear husband, and I found (again!) the Shell Ferrari toy cars that he collected. This kind of annoyed me (again!) because these little collectibles are really out of place in our home design, and I have nowhere else to place them.Honestly, I am not a fan of collecting any items, and I don’t know if I will ever be interested in...
The Party Before Christmas
As early as now, Christmas decor is being sold in the malls. But of course, I'm not really that interested to buy these stuff, because I'm still thinking of one party - a fun one - before we go in Christmas mode... Halloween! gash, I love this "celebration" simply because we would have fun dressing...
Feeling Lonely
We had a blast last night celebrating Eanna's birthday. I tried not to think about it, but still, I cannot help but wished that my dearest husband was with us. I'm sure he would have been very happy and proud of his little daughter. Now I finally had to face the reality (I thought I did before, but half heartedly I guess) that there will be very special occasions when hubby will not be here to celebrate...

Eanna'S Pre-Birthday Loot
Here's Eanna's pre-birthday loot, courtesy of the Mama of course. Hahaha.I also bought her another pair of sandals plus three dresses. She totally loves the mini-grocery cart, complete with goodies. And the strawberry shortcake shades? Goodness, when I tried to get it from her, she cried like crazy!Last night, we got to celebrate with my in-laws, who graciously gave more goodies to Eanna. Since our...
To My Dearest Angel... My First Baby
Dear Eanna,Today marks your very first birthday, and perhaps today no mother is more proud than I am. I am so happy to have been blessed with a wonderful, amazing, beautiful little human being to love for the rest of my life.You are growing up real fast right before my very eyes, and though you will...

The Online Clinic and Pills
The week-long illness of Eanna has given me quite a scare, even if her pediatrician and my Uncle (who’s also a pedia) told me that she’d be fine. As soon as I had spare time, I tried to check out in the Net anything and everything about Roseolla. Funny, I came across this online clinic totally not related to what I was initially researching for. Anyway, it is an Online clinic that mostly deal with...

Eanna's Pre-birthday Shopping
Little shortcake and I went to the mall this morning to do her pre-birthday shopping. I went gaga over clothes and toys and didn't hesitate splurging on these goodies. They're for my best girl after all. The loot? Three dresses, a pair of shoes, a pair of sandals, another musical toy - house piano, a mini grocery cart with goodies, two soft balls, a toy mobile phone, bubble gun, a strawberry shortcake...

Missing the Preps
Last weekend, our wedding supplier for photography and videography paid me a visit in order for us to finalize our wedding album. I know, I know, it's almost two years already since we got married, and this was long overdue already. Hopefully, we will get our album and video before our second anniversary....

Fever
My poor angel has fever since yesterday, and though she's still very active and eating well, I'm still very worried. I didn't go to work today, and it seems like I won't go to work tomorrow. Not until my baby's fever is completely gone.Her fever shot up to as high as 39+, and that gave me a sleepless night last night. Dear little girl must have been very uncomfortable because she kept on rolling and...
