still alive

I'm still here, though I haven't blogged since I don't know how long. Although I can't say I'll blog every day or every week, but we'll see.

The weekend will soon come to a close and my princess life is over (again). Hahaha! I'm adviced for bed rest until further advice. So say goodbye to weekend lakwatsas, or library dates with the little big boy.

On the other note, I'm on progesterone. And I'm telling you, it doesn't feel good. The effect is really bad on me. It reminded me the time I was lying on the operating bed in the hospital on a Sunday afternoon in September of 2005.

This whole hormonal thingy is making me crazy just thinking about it.

Anyhoot, went to see the little big boy's dentist last Saturday, despite the doctor's advice to stay in bed. Haha! Matigas talaga ang ulo, ano? Although I rested every 20 or 30 minutes of walking so I don't know if that's okay.

And oh, I had my first Dunkin Donuts in SG, but it's nothing compare to the Dunkin Donuts in the PH, Jakarta or the US where it's a bit greasy. Here it's kinda dry. Sort of bread-like. I don't know if it's just me, but it's really different; texture and taste wise. Oh well, I'll have to wait until I go to my parents' place next year.

Alrighty! Will blog next time when I feel better. My vision is killing me. And I tell you that I miss my pet on PS and Style Savvy.

I think the progesterone is working coz I'm feeling wonky now.

So toodles noodles!

school, Christmas and Thomas

It's not that I'm neglecting this blog. Every day I think of posting something but Pet Society keeps me busy when I'm home. Plus the fact that my everyday life is boring and very routinary. Oh, just don't ask about my daily schedule. They're.....the usual.

I've been feeling the cool breeze every morning. Christmas is indeed a few weeks away. But there's nothing to look forward to. Christmas is a no biggie here. I don't even have plans of putting up the tree, or any decors at all. But the little one wants to have a Christmas tree and Bee wants to see Christmas lights. Hala, bahala silang duha magdecorate.

Anyway, I received the letter from Sean's new school today and they announced that there'll be a $20 increase in the monthly fees. Gah! And that I have to pay $55 for the school materials this Friday. Though I have to talk to his teacher because I'm withdrawing him from the system. We're sticking to sending him to a private kindergarten. Although I still have to buy him his school uniforms even if he'll only be attending for a month. And did you know that we could only purchase the uniforms on the 23rd of December? Like what?! And the nametags will be given on January 4 next year. Bakit ba iba-iba ang dates ng pagkuha ng mga anik-anik? Di ko mawari! Ano ba naman yung isang bigayan na lang, da ba? Ay, ambot!

Going back to Christmas stuffs....

I'm not buying any gift for the little boy this Christmas. He received a lot of pressies last year, so this year it's zero. I don't know with Bee, though. But as for me, I'm not buying him anything. He has just so many toys in his room that I don't know where to store them anymore. Pwede syang matabunan ng mga laruan nya, and you'd never know he's underneath the pile. OA sa OA talaga, but I've learned my lessonS (with capital s). His toys get in our way, literally. His room is supposed to be our school area but now it's become his little Thomasland! Gaaaaah!!!!! There's not a day where I don't trip whenever I enter his room to get some homeschool materials.

Speaking of Thomas Land, I'm excited for the little boy. He's going to his first paid stage show and I hope it's good because it's freaking pricey.

Will update next time. I just don't know when. so toodles noodles!

mr. maker inspired

Little big boy and I were watching Mister Maker one afternoon and I got inspired by what he did. So I decided that Sean do something like it in one of our sessions.

This is really easy and fun.

just another kitchexperiment

Look what I made in the kitchen! It's another kitchexperiment.



I didn't know I had a slice of pink salmon in the freezer for two weeks and decided to panfry it in a tablespoon of olive oil. I had no idea if it's still alright to eat it, because like I said, it's been in the freezer for two weeks. Maybe more. I don't know.

Anyway, it turned out good and sweet. Thanks to an imagination and some leftover pineapple in the fridge.

can't stop him from growing up

My 4 year old is growing and there's no denying. He's claiming independence, in his own little ways, from us. For instance, when we're in a mall, he wants to walk on his own without being hold by the hand, which is scary because he might get lost. And whenever we're inside a shop, he browses on his own and only calls our attention if he wants something. Or, when he gets bored, he goes out of the shop and go few meters away from our eyesight which translates to heart attacks. Alright, that's an exagge. But did you get the picture?

Whenever it's storytime, he chooses what book/s to read and at times leads the mini-discussions. And what's with asking us with, "What's funny, guys?" whenever he sees or hears me and Bee laughing.

Not to mention he'd like to go up and down the escalator on his own. Gack!

Bee told me yesterday that he can't accept his only child is growing up fast. He said, Sean is still a baby. His baby. Na hala!

I could only imagine the daddy crying on Sean's wedding day. Hahahahaha! Knowing my husband. *wink* *wink*

out with the old, in with the new

I'm tired of wearing the same old boring house clothes since I arrived in SG. So I told Bee that I want to update my house clothes soon. Good thing there's a sale at the neighborhood mall, and I couldn't resist not buying $5 tanks and shirts and $7 fleece lounger capris. I bought 5 items for just $29! Weee! I'm going back tomorrow to buy racerback tanks and camis. I want to buy a lightweight pullover or henley, but SG is crazy hot and humid these past weeks so I'm not decided yet. But let's see tomorrow.

And speaking of clothes, shempre hindi magpapahuli si forever boyfriend. He's slowly updating his dress shirts and pants because he's down to 2 sizes. Haaay, envy!

When will it be my turn to update my wardrobe? I'm still stuck with oversized shirts and jeans because, minus all those flowery words, I'm still BIG.

Go away hormonal imbalance. You're making my life more complicated. As if it's not already complicated to begin with.

hairy sitch

I wonder. Does our leg hair grow as we get older? Mine’s growing, and they’re a bit thicker than usual. I’ve never waxed nor shaved my legs because my mom told me in primary school that when and if I shave my legs, the hair would grow thick and I’ll have a man’s hairy leg, which frightened me.

But now few of my leg hair are growing, the lowest part at least. I’m just worried of a “domino effect” sooner or later. I’ve never been conscious about my leg hair until last month. Although I still don’t want to shave or wax my leg hair, but the uneven length makes my legs ugly.

LSS: Say Forever

I never thought I'd make a wrong move at all
I always stay in doubt of things I never find
I realized I was only human but that was no excuse
So in a way we'll make it better
Let's stay together and true


(chorus)
Say you love me
Say you need me
And be forever true to my heart and my soul and hold me again
as we pretend we never hurt each other
No goodbyes now
Tie the knots now
And try to be the best of what lovers can be
Straight from the heart
Hoping our love will always be forever


Sometimes it takes mistakes to find there's nothing wrong
I don't believe we'll get through this by being alone
If I could only turn back the hands of time now
ours won't have to be of used
We've got to change our ways and maybe
Maybe start anew


(bridge)
Don't want the pain to keep going on and on
You will be safe now here in my arms
Hoping your arms

(Repeat Chorus)


I am not sure of the entire lyrics. I was trying my best to type the words as I hear them. But my hearing isn't perfect. Heeee. Besides, I couldn't find the lyrics anywhere. So tap on my back.
