The Rebirth

Eddie just rebuilt his new Truth site.. it took him a while to rebuild it cause he wants everything in order and work perfectly.

In the end, I must say, all the hard work, patience and staying up late at night is all worth it.

Check out the butterflies, the hot cyborg (which I told him it should be me ;) ) and the animation at the The rebirth. Absolutely cool beyond words!

For the Love of Ken and Popo...

I thought I will be able to join my Popo (Shih-tzu) at Dogster too bad it's too late... I was pressured to sell our precious baby just to provide my kids what they need for school and a guitar for my son.

I must confess, I have no regrets because I know I found her a home where she won't feel neglected and love and dogfood is abundant:) Plus, she will be reunited with her brother once again. In a way, I also made my son happy by getting him a nice guitar so he won't be anxious about where to get something to use next time.

At the moment, I feel ok but there's something inside me that's missing.. the thought of Popo will never be around to play with. My morning will never be the same without her playing with me and the kids before school, running around the house, scratching the couch, biting our clothes, chasing her tail etc.

Life is really full of tough choices... either way, I know that my decision somehow never upset anyone. Popo is reunited with her brother once again (in a different home though) and Ken felt good about having his new guitar. I hope this sacrifice will get my son more interested in learning new stuff.

My daughter is kinda funny, I know she was a bit jealous when I bought her brother a guitar.. She then demands a piano, then changed her mind and asked for a violin. Which ended up to electric sharpener. :) Kids!

We'll miss you, Popo!

Popo at her best

Looking through the eyes of love...

Nap time

Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow...

Yesterday, I promised to be more organized and it was a success... I did all the stuff I needed to do under time management. I felt good about it though I have a bit of toothache which has been killing me for a couple of days or so.

Today is a failure. Woke up late, my kids were having breakfast already and I felt guilty cause today I wanted to prepare something heavy for them but I didn't. I haven't clean the house yet, fed the birds nor folded the laundry, I just watched tv and surfed the whole morning I think which is really really nonsense. But that ain't over yet, I will go to my mother's shop and I will bring with me my sewing kit and see if I can make a new bag again. I'll post about the bags soon. :)

Tomorrow, who knows? If I will suck again or not...

Peace!

One Good News

I got some great news... my loving mother said that I could open the shop if I promise to be responsible enough this time. Yayy! However it could also mean that I will have to sacrifice not going to the mall with my girlfriends and Nanay or getting laid back at home. That I will have to endure being with my mother 24/7 fulltime at the shop and inside our home. Yaiks! Generally though, she's cool and very thoughtful and I love her even if we always fight but when it comes to work.. there's no such thing as excuses. Sounds like Hitler, huh?

Things won't be easy once I get into it, I know that I can make it but the pressure of having my mother around and reprimand me things all the time will really be a torture, knowing my mother. But once I showed her I know what my responsibilities are then that's the time she will stop. I am never worried about running the business at all actually, it's more of her. Mother's can really be crazy sometimes. : Like me, I sometimes go crazy when my kids are around. But no matter what I will still always love them and them love me back.

Just like my mother and I. Always make each other crazy but still love one another.. in a different way. :)

My Very First Macro Shots

Never did I expect I would have such a fulfilling and exciting Sunday.. ever! These random shots say it all. I took the courage and tried taking this macros using Canon Digital Ixy 4.0 megapixels and it turned out not-so-bad.. at all for a first-timer like me ;)

My boyfriend, Eddie, was the first to see these photos and I must say he appreciate it especially this black and white butterfly... The delightful feeling it gave me encouraged me to still pursue photography in every way that I can.. and this is

my simple pleasure :)

Isn't it great? I hope so.

One thing i learned though in capturing these images, that I should bring a pen and paper with me so that i could best describe their names or some informations about my subject etc.

Trees that's Got Nothing to Do with My Post...

Must be the coffee that's keeping me up until now... So I've decided to try and write something for this blog for a 'change'. Sometimes, I think I am not tailored to write cause I really find it hard to begin a topic with and a bit worried about my grammar etc. but I do really want to share some stuff about me and all.

Anyway, since it seems that I find the guts to write once again, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those (who emailed me and some friends) who 'somehow' believed that I am capable of expressing and sharing my life to others and how they can relate themselves to it. I know I should have written this a long time but I guess this is the right time to better express and be thankful for the support and encouragement they have given me... Thanks everyone...

Nothing's new in my life except that my connection is a lot quicker than the usual. I'm already a broadband user, yayy! Also, my mother is having second-thoughts on trusting me to open a shop next to hers, she said she will lend me a certain amount of money to start a business with but with my lifestyle she said 'I can never make it'. How can I not make it? Just because I move slow and I don't have patience in running a shop doesn't mean I can never make it in business. That's just not fair. Anyway, no matter how I protest, still it won't do good but to accept the fact that I can never be a boutique owner something like that. Maybe it's not the right time yet.


Funny though cause before my mother changed her mind, I already knew exactly what to put in it like I would add some good lightings and three picture frames on the wall just above the wall clock and a mini cleopatra at the side of the shop just across my table. I would buy merchandise from Bangkok cause then only a few can do that in our town and it will be more than ok for sure. I just know cause I used to window-shop a lot and find great stuff over great deals and that's what I planned to do. But at the moment, it is just but a dream. I hope my mother can't resist me before she goes to Bangkok :)

Maybe you would be wondering what's the connection of this photo on my article for today... Well, don't ask me, I don't know either why it's there. I just feel like posting it, could be there's something about that tree that's reflecting on my personality. I'll try to find out.

But for now, I'm going to bed.

115 days to go and it's Christmas once again!!!
