So here I am again

I am so back baby!  I tried to shift to wordpress for awhile but found it too hard to use.  Now, I am so back in this original blog :).

Ok, so I got so many back posts and I don't really know how to catch up.  I won't even think about that now.  I am just so excited about my new header :).  I built it myself, from scratch!  Hurray hurray! 

My new layout is also nice, thanks to http://www.shabbyblogs.com/.  This site has so many wonderful free layouts, go and check it out yourself.

And so Tet says:  "Exciting times ahead!  Looking forward to blogging and digital scrapping again!"

Cutie Movie Coming Up

I'm so going to watch this movie. I hope Sherwin will go with me - no use of watching this cute movie without my own honey :).



I am so sure Cai & Mom are going to watch it too. Hahaha.

4Jun09 Edit:
This movie was not as good as Part 1. Sarah G. was just overacting through out the movie.

Weekend of Jan 24- 25 2009



Saturday, Jan 24: We were out the whole day on Saturday. We had lunch at Rockwell's Pepper Lunch which we planned earlier that week, since Sherwin wanted me to try the Beef Pepper Rice. I say, it is really good! We also wanted Trisha to see the new Kids' area on the 3rd floor, but she didn't really get too excited about it since there's nothing much that she can do there.

Then before heading home, we went to SM Makati to look for the living room table we wanted to replace the computer table with. We are giving the computer to Adrian, together with the computer table, since we rarely use it anyway.

Trisha was wearing her Gingersnaps lilac jumpsuit with her Gap gold-silver flats.




Sunday, Jan 25: We headed to Greenbelt Recipes for lunch to celebrate the Chinese New Year. We had the usual order of Gising-gising, deep fried tilapia, general's chicken & beef stew. Then after, just walked around Greenbelt 5 to check on the shops newly opened in that area.

I am hoping to go back to purchase the Melissa shoes I asked Len for my birthday :). Maybe this weekend or next. I will post a photo of it as soon as I have it.

Trisha was wearing her pink top, skinny jeans, gold-silver flats & vintage sunshades, all from Gap.







Before heading to lunch, we passed by T at Greenbelt 3 and we saw this nice bag for Trisha. She immediately liked it & transferred all her stuff from her floral bag (her only hand bag) and was so ready to walk out of the shop. So there, Mommy had to purchase it :). I was tempted to get the Mommy version of this bag for myself, but since it is transparent, I figured I wouldn't be able to use it much so I had to pass it up.




I am indeed a SNAKE :)

For my friends who really, deeply, know me, they can confirm that what this says is so true about me :).

Chinese Zodiac - Snake

Personality
Occupying the 6th position in the Chinese Zodiac, the Snake symbolizes such character traits as intelligence (Tet: uhuh), gracefulness (Tet: yeah) and materialism (Tet: hahaha). When it comes to decision-making, Snakes are extremely analytical and as a result, they don’t jump into situations. They are effective at getting the things they want, even if it means they have to scheme and plot along the way (Tet: hahaha, yeah yeah).

Snakes are very materialistic creatures, preferring to surround themselves with the finest that life has to offer. This is especially evident in the home, where luxurious furnishings and surroundings help Snakes seek the peace they need in order to thrive. (Tet: hmm, this justifies my love for nice things, they help me seek the peace i need in order to thrive. should be acceptable!)

Health
Snakes prefer living a life of calmness, preferring quietness over noise and a manageable workload rather than a schedule that’s overly-booked. Snakes become easily stressed when their lives aren’t peaceful or in order. Too much of this way of life can shorten a snake’s life! (Tet: So true!)

Career
Snakes do work very hard, but they have a tendency to be job-hoppers as they become easily bored (Tet: hahahaha, again, perfect description of myself!). Their somewhat laid-back attitude causes them to be mistakenly categorized as slackers, but nothing could be further from the truth! Snakes are very creative and extremely diligent. They’re excellent problem-solvers and thrive under tight deadlines. Good career choices for Snakes include: scientist, analyst, investigator, painter, potter, jeweler, astrologer, magician, dietician, and sociologist (Tet: seems like I am on the right career track).

Relationships
Snakes are excellent seducers so they never have trouble attracting others (Tet: hm, not too confident about this one though. but if you say so! haha). However, they’ll be the ones to decide when a relationship has potential and when it does not. Once they’ve chosen a partner, a Snake’s insecure side will begin to show through. Snakes guards their chosen partners much like a prized possessions, becoming jealous and even obsessive (Tet: Hahaha). Snakes prefer to keep their feelings to themselves. It’s important to never betray a Snake’s trust as a betrayed snake will make it a goal to get even some day! (Tet: Yes! so be warned!)

My First No Rice Lunch Day

I have always wanted to cut my rice intake. Easier said than done! I was successful in cutting my rice for each meal to half-cup since around December. Well, I cheated on some days - especially when we have inihaw na Bangus and taba ng Talangka. Hm, and during my almost 2 weeks Christmas holiday in Baguio - I did not measure my rice at all! And that's it, I did not progress from there. Until today :).

During lunch, one of my BFFs, who's an expert in this No Rice Diet, convinced me to skip my rice and just have the Hubad na Lumpia, a portion of inihaw ng Bangus, banana for dessert and just plain water instead of my usual Pulpy Minute Maid drink. I was worried I would faint of hunger. But, yey! I survived the afternoon without my usual afternoon snack. I had another banana instead before heading home. But while waiting for dinner, I cheated... with 1 Krispy Kreme donut & 1 glass of iced tea. I was sooo hungry. But still! I didn't have rice for lunch! Haha.

I would really love to eat healthier this year. I think sticking with this friend will help me :). She has so much self control with her food intake & regular exercise! I did ask her to drag me to the gym either lunch time or in the afternoon - half an hour in the treadmill will surely help me lose that weight I have been trying to get rid off for more than 2 years now. And I hope we could be lunchmates until I get used to the no rice diet.

Good luck to me! And may Jok have the patience to help me :). Love yah friend!
