my first QOTW

3. You are still sleeping and suddenly someone wakes you up. What would be your first reaction? Why do you need to wake me up?

5. Someone is knocking at your car window, and you see a little girl selling fruits for $1. Are you going to buy one or just ignore her? Please be honest. I always buy the goodies that little kids sell in the streets.
6. What time did you wake up today? Happy or Sad? I woke up at 6. I felt good. Well, a lot better than the previous days.

wordless wednesday # 3
This is how I would describe my relationship with hubby -- happy and funny.
*Taken more than 3 years ago, while I was 3 months pregnant with Lizzie.
what life?
How You Life Your Life 
You say whatever is on your mind. Other people's reactions don't phase you.
You tend to have one best friend you hang with, as opposed to many aquaintences.
You tend to dream big, but you worry that your dreams aren't attainable.

meet pixie
Why did I buy this new toy? Well, for one, Lizzie is growing up and I want to document all her milestones and achievements. And I can't do it if I am using an old, outdated camera that has 3.1 megapixels heee! Second, the last time I bought a camera was before my wedding. The other one which I bought from a friend did not last long enough to capture sweet moments of the family. So, hopefully, this will serve it's purpose and be with me in the next couple of years...
Goodbye lofty dreams of owning an SLR hehehe! My only consolation now is at least, I can bring it anywhere and keep it inside my small clutch bag.
Friends, meet my new toy PIXIE:
mama
Hay life. Parang buhay.
Please pray for her.

my new home =)
As promised in this post, I will only continue blogging if I get to fix my issues with blogger. And now, after 6 tough, hard, frikkin days, and with the help of the blogging gurus in the www, I was able to put my own domain up!
At least, I don't need to purchase another domain and I get to keep the domain name that I really want. Thanks to prayers and these blogging wizards that I met online!
So, friends, Romans and countrymen.. presenting my new site:
Please start updating your lists. Thanks and expect more posts from me in the coming days.
Eye. Lav. Et.

LP # 3 or 4: Lengthwise
Taken during our honeymoon in Singapore. This was I guess in Chinatown, I just can't remember. Yes, I took the photo. Isn't it cute? Ü
for one more day
Read the entire book in an hour before sleeping last night. And I was crying buckets! My husband and daughter were puzzled on why I was crying. They didn't know. And they won't probably know.
Oh mother's love.
Mabuhey!

wordless wednesday # 2
Wordless because I am at a loss for words. I was left speechless (still am) after these photos were taken. She was in her usual jovial self. She has always been very creative with her poses but these? I HAVE NO IDEA! It was a charming moment. Nobody taught her this. Her TV shows are strictly monitored. I keep reassuring myself, she will be a good girl when she grows up. Ü
real real real!

let's track your vehicles
There’s no problem with the installation of the devices as it plugs directly to the vehicles diagnostic port. It provides intuitive and powerful reports and graphs on speeding, begin/end day report, off hours report, miles per gallon or fuel consumption, accurate odometer. We thought that with this device, we don’t need additional manpower to check on each truck or van. We don’t need additional people to check on the drivers and workers who deliver our goods. The device in itself is a powerful tool to help us with our business. Aside from all these, it also features GPS Insight support wiki for customers wherein users can easily modify contents via the web, typically without any restrictions. This has been found to be effective as contributors tend to be more numerous and persistent to vandals and old versions of pages are always available for reference.
What is good about this product is, compared to all other GPS trucking products, this gives 2 minutes update with very high end map options and customizations. And they offer specialized enhancements for your exact industry and fleet needs. So, instead of us adjusting to them, they adjust to what our business need. Talk about excellent customer service here. Isn’t that amazing?
To top it all, they have this Blog for GPS vehicle tracking that’s being updated on a regular basis. So, users are updated on whatever is new with the device and the product that they are offering, including the benefits that come with it. My family is very pleased and grateful with this product that we immediately placed orders for all our vehicles!

the habananas :)
Me: I have something for you! (in my perkiest tone ever)
Lizzie: What? (getting giddy and all)
Me: O close your eyes first
Lizzie: closes eyes and smiles
I immediately held the bag at her eye level.
Lizzie (opens her eyes sooo wide and exclaiming---): Oh mama! Thank you thank you very very much!
Hay, if only all people are as appreciative and innocent as the little children.

mental note to self #14
it's raining men
MEN HUNT TAG- also known as the Men-I-would-like-to-sleep-with-if-only-I-were-single tag. (disclaimer: I don't intend to sleep with these guys naman even if I was single. Date date lang hehehe!)
1. George Clooney
Em knows how fascinated I am with GC. He is to date, my long standing crush and when I get the chance to visit the US, I will surely hunt him down LOL!
2. David Beckham
Who wouldn't fall for Becks? My crush circa 2000.
3. Colin Farrell
I love his dirty look. Hot hot hot in SWAT!
4. Wentworth Miller
I used to call myself Mrs. Michael Scofield. Prisonbreak days hehehe.
5. Jake Cuenca
I really have a thing with manly guys. Jake is mestizo, yes. But his rough and rugged looks make cringe lol! Pinakabago kong kras itey!
6. And last but not the least, John Estrada
He may be a lot of names to some but he will always be Boris to me. He used to look so much like my husband kasi during his Boris days kaya na-love ko sya.
Tagging you: Jan, Pat, Ela and Thea.
For GJay
But when I was reading her posts today, I came across this blog and instead of the usual tears from laughing, today, I had tears because my heart was bleeding. I feel for the family of the little boy, especially her mother. Being a mother myself, I can't imagine losing my daughter without Him preparing me for it. I am so at a loss for words. At this point, I just want to say a little prayer his family and friends.
Sail on, GJay. Bring our prayers and love with you.

kiddo's question

2. Add your name (linked to your blog)
3. Tag everybody else!
Kid’s Question #1
If you were the ruler of the world and you could have anything you wanted as well as have people do anything you wanted, do you think you would get greedy and mean or would you be a good and fair ruler?
I'd be the best ruler anybody can ever have. Strict and principled but fun loving and people-oriented. And everyone will love me because I will share to them the world but at the same time, they will always be up on their toes because I will be strict and straight. The world needs a fair ruler. The world needs a fun-loving yet principled ruler :)

a cherished friendship
Bumped into one of my closest guy friends (he is actually my husband's best buddy/blood brother but we got closer when we moved to the same company a couple of years ago) while having breakfast at Something Fishy with my in laws today. I was so excited to see him that I literally jumped out of where I was sitting to hug him. It has been months (probably more than a year) already since we last talked and though we would bump into each other at work, there was never a chance for us to sit and have those chit chats we used to do before. He was my coffee buddy for almost a year. He was my protector at work, my big brother as I call him. We were just so close.
We kinda drifted apart when he stepped up the ladder and eventually became the site director. Occasional exchange of text messages and emails but the coffee breaks were gone. I started missing him. So, imagine the thrill when I saw him today? It was like seeing your best friend you haven't seen in years. The feeling was so great! After the meeting, he sent me a text message saying: "Hey sistah! I've missed you. You have no idea. So much stuff has happened that I wish I could just talk to you. Let's catch up soon. Ü"
I'd love to have coffee with him and hubby soon. I've got to organize it now or else I might forget again.
Hey ep! I've missed you too, brothah! And Arthuz have been bugging me that we visit you at home. Soon. Soon. Promise. Take it easy ok? Told you, it's never good to spend time at Med City! See yah around! Ü
Hay! Friendships like the one I have with ep will always be cherished. He is and will always be my husband's best buddy, my brothah, Lizzie's ninong (who never fails to spoil her with gifts!), my closest guy friend... my favorite friend.

offline.
I am blogging from the office. As much as possible, I refrain from opening my laptop on thursday nights. Friday mornings are dedicated to Quiapo so I have to be snoring already by 8pm to be able to be up and about by 2 in the morning. I have a lot of things to blog about but I've got to park everything first for now. I shall be back on Friday. With a vengeance.
Cheerio to all!

Kagaya po ni Aggie, hindi din ako nakasali sa unang linggo ng Abril kaya gusto ko pong humabol ngayon. Dahil dito, may ipapasa akong litrato para sa unang linggo at para sa araw na ito. (Just like Aggie, I was also not able to join in the first week of April but I would still want to submit my entries today. Because of this, I have an entry for last week and another one for today.)
Ito ang orasan sa aming silid. Isa sa mga pinaka-importanteng bagay sa buhay naming mag asawa na pag naubusan ng baterya, para din kameng naputulan ng paa.

we are the crab family
While I was resting at the couch late this afternoon (I usually lie down and rest for a while upon coming home from work while waiting for my husband to arrive), reading the latest edition of Marie Claire Philippines, Lizzie came up to me and said:"Mama, you are mother crab and I am baby crab and we live inside Little Mermaid's house".
