Happy Face by Eanna

I was playing Temple Run and noticed my little girl getting something from my desk. I asked her what she was doing and she said she was making a happy face. I didn't know what she meant so I just carried on with my iPhone addiction. Couple of minutes passed by and the little girl left the room. I was still busy checking out stuff in my phone. I realized I had to bring out the chicken from the fridge and so I got up and went outside the room. When I came back this was what I saw just at the corner of my bed...

So this was what my daughter was doing. I felt my heart break because i was too caught up with my "me time" that I didn't pay much attention to what she was doing. And she did it for me. A Happy Face.

I feel like such a bad mother right now. Guilt, anger (at myself), pain. I can't believe I was not able to appreciate earlier her creativity.

And I must try harder in paying more attention to her.

My new year's resolution is "Less is More" and that I should focus on what truly matters. Eanna is what truly matters to me.

Marriage

Why are you being difficult? You're supposed to be mostly sunny skies with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms. Why are you being the other way around?

Yabu, House of Katsu

Let me just say that I am so glad I got to try Yabu, House of Katsu resto in Megamall yesterday.

Check out these pics...

I got the Kurobuta tonkatsu. They said that "Kurobuta" is the kobe beef of pork. I would agree. The meat is just so tender and melts-in-your-mouth type. The set is just too much though. Two people can easily share the meal!

Aside from the set, I got the appetizer combo of edamame and seaweed salad. They taste really good.

What's good though about Yabu, more the food, is the kind of service that you get. My daughter was holding her miso and accidentally tipped it over. The soup obviously got spilled. The waiter who attended us was very patient cleaning the mess. Then he said that he will just give us another soup. Now that is good service. It;s very rare that restos here offer to replace food if it's not their fault that something happens. I really hope that they be consistent with this kind of customer service!

I plan to go back and try the other sets they have. The seafood set is intriguing. Can't wait to bring my hubby here!

My 2012 New Year's Resolution

Parallel universe love and I have something in common: 2012 New year's resolution!

I have spread myself too thin last year (and probably the last few years too) and I think it's about time for me to slow down a bit, focus on things and people that truly matter, and not sweating the small stuff.

Repetto is Coming to Town!

Saw from Chuvaness.com that Repetto is coming to town late Jan or early feb 2012. In Greenbelt 3!

I hope the prices will be good though!

Funny, earlier during the day I was just browsing through the Repetto website because I wanted to check out any new colors. Currently this is what I have (and I so love, even though they are quite delicate)

I actually wore this in the office today. I wear this in the office when I'm sick and can't afford to wear heels.

Almost got this one too, but I had to stop myself.

They don't come in cheap, ya know!

These lovely pairs come inside really nice boxes too....

(ps: gotta love instagram...has wonderful pics effects, including one that looks as if when printed you used cheap ink cartridges hehehe)

I really really hope the prices are good, else I'd have to get them elsewhere. Hahaha. But I'm looking forward to visiting the shop when it opens!
