Going to Marinduque

We are off to the province tomorrow morning in order to attend the wake and burial of my Grandfather. I was hoping that our first family trip to Marinduque is going to be a pleasant one, but I guess some things cannot be planned and are unexpected. I'm still at work trying to address any pending items before I leave. Hubby on the other hand just finished checking our car and is in charge of preparing...

After 5 days of staying in HK, I am now back in Manila. It was a tiring yet exciting vacation for our company, as well as for hubby and I. More stories later, since I am now lagging in my work. I've been out for 3 days, you know. Hahahaha. Will blog about our trip as soon as I finish updating my work and all. Gotta work and plurk too you know. Hahaha. I will also post some pictures, and I found it...

Getting Ready

We're getting ready for our HK trip and I'm soooo excited already. Other than vacationing with my colleagues, I'm also looking forward to being with hubby in a different country... a first (and hopefully not the last!). I'm sure this 5 days will be a blast for all of us. I hope that this will also be a major bonding time for hubby and I, since we have been apart for more than 7 months. So blogging...

Unsafe World

Don't you just wish that our country has a system or a way in which we can further protect ourselves from crime and criminals? Each day I get to read or watch about crimes and it makes me wonder if our country (or anywhere actually) is a safe place for us, a safe place for Eanna to grow and live. I hope that we will someday have public records of inmates like the ones the US have. I saw this online...

Breathe!

Now I can breathe... for now at least! Yahoo, audit is done already. Well, the interview part that is. Tomorrow there will still be some minor audits (go to our work place and observe) but at least I can relax for now. The external audit is 2 weeks away, I think, so that leaves us more room to shape up and review our systems, policies, and procedures. hahaha.Now I can focus on other things other than...

Company Gifts for Christmas

What's new right now when it comes to giving company gifts for Christmas? I have previously received various items such as pens, key chains, bags, umbrellas, planners, calendars, among other things. But I really want to think of something new that I can suggest to our Admin.Since our company is very...

Not to mention ancient. hahaha. Kidding.Anyway, my Aunt (actually, Grandma already since his husband is my Grandpa's brother) has sent me a text message asking for our little family's details (full names, birth dates, etc). I knew at once that she is in the process of updating our clan's family tree. As the Hidalgo family grows by the year, we really have to have our records updated.I however wanted...

Ack!!! It's our audit today 9and tomorrow) and my mind is blank!!! I tried to condition myself last night by starting on thinking about our company's policy and mandate, but I couldn't do it. I kept on thinking about honeymooning, shopping, and Eanna!Dear hubby is arriving TOMORROW. I repeat... T-O-M-O-R-R-O-W. So excited and nervous at the same time. Gash. Somebody help me. I need to focus...

Our HK trip is getting nearer by the day, and much as I am excited about our trip, I'm getting a bit worried about spending. I hope I won't go gaga over shopping! Dear husband will be there with me on Sunday, so at least I have somebody to control my shopping appetite. My worry though is the first 3...

Dorsett Seaview Hotel

This is the hotel where our company booked us and most likely where Enrik and I will stay in HK. I hope this hotel has good accommodations though. I'm not really familiar with it. The last time we went there, we stayed in this nice hotel (I forgot the name but kind of looks like the laughlin hotels in Nevada) and near everything, with "everything" meaning shops, malls, etc. Hahaha. That's my main...

Since last week I'm feeling the excitement already for our company's Hong Kong trip. Today however I got even more excited because dear hubby is coming home next week in time for him to follow to HK for our much-awaited second honeymoon! We will stay there until 21 October... I know, it might be too short, but hey we're not complaining. Better short than none right? Of course, it is still our dream...

Look Good, Feel Good!

Hahaha, I coined this sentence from one commercial that had a tag line "look young, feel young!" Anyway, I am just happy with the results of my "vital statistics" taken during our uniform fittings. I was surprised that my figure kind of slimmed down a bit, and it's not what i have expected. Let's just say that when it comes to waist line, the measurement was two inches less than what I thought. Nice!...

Home Entertainment System for Sale!

Anybody interested in buying a 29' Samsung Slim Fit TV plus a DVD player and a really nice sound system (5 speakers plus this big box, I don't know what it is called, hehehe)? I really want to upgrade our home entertainment system (feel!) and get an LCD TV and a more compact DVD player. Not for aesthetics, but mostly to save space, since we live in a 62 sqm unit. I'm not wishing for the stars and...

Green Living

It has been a while now since I promised to Mother Earth that I will do my best to live a healthy and green lifestyle, as well as to promote "green living" to my friends, relatives, and colleagues. I have been an "environmentalist" ever since high school, but it's just now that I want to make drastic changes in the way our family will live in order to help save our planet. I already started by turning...

Good To See Them Again

Though our "reunion" was due to a sad incident (ex-colleague's husband passed away), I really felt good seeing my ex-colleagues again. I have been thinking about them lately because it's been almost three years since we parted ways and went on to different companies, and i sorely missed the friendships...

Credit Cards in the Market

Just this week alone a couple of credit card companies contacted me and offered me credit cards for free. Though I wasn't that interested in getting one, the offers gave me an indication that my credit reputation is still in good standing (I hope!). I thought it would be marred by the Citibank incident...

Just got a mail from dear hubby and good news! He really is coming home soon. Yey! Finally, after months of being away, we're gonna be together again, and our little family's going to be complete. I really can't wait to see him and to be back in his arms. *sigh* I'm imagining again, what our days would be like, where to go, what to do, what to eat. Gash. This is going to be the longest two weeks......

Sickly Me

Ack! I can't afford to be sick these days. Hubby is coming home and I need to be healthy and "physically able" nyahahahaha.Anyway, I must have overslept last night (duh, from 8:00 am to 7 am the next day, kinda obvious huh?) because I feel so groggy, slow, and well, still sick. I have a couple of days to get well. *Sigh* Been chugging glasses of lemonade for days already. I hope I'll get well soon....
