I had so much fun meeting up with the girls again. Tim, Shen, Jing and Issang. And the newlywed, Myra. We had dinner at Jay-J’s Inasal in Timog Ave. The food was great and the price was very affordable! Our dinner lasted for hours. The place was great, very conducive to family and group of friends dining out. Our only complaint against the place is that the service was so-so. You need to exert an effort to get the attention of the service crew before they will attend to you. Otherwise, the place is really a good place to spend time with family and friends over dinner.
Anyway, I spent the night laughing so much. When you are with friends you’ve been with for years, you can talk just about anything and everything under the sun (moon in our case hehe). After dinner, we proceeded to Starbucks for some coffee and more laughter.
Myra will be going back to Dubai today. I wish her and her husband the best! And I am hoping to see my friends again soon.
Happy weekend everyone!

The tile flooring in our bathroom needs to be replaced already. It looks icky to me even when it was just scrubbed clean. Even with our favorite tile cleaner, it still stays that way. I will try to save up for the tiles to be replaced.
There’s so many things on my list of ‘must do’ for this year. The year is just 30 days old and there’s already so much to do! I swear I hate all these worrying and planning and executing. Especially when I am doing all of this with little help from those who matter.

I’ve been noticing that there’s been a green study in almost every product these days. This is good news to all of us and to our environment. We need to pull our collective weight to make sure that we do something to save our environment or we will see more wrath of nature through global warming.
If we can buy products that are environment-friendly, let’s go for that one! If we can cut our energy use, let’s do so. There are so many ways we can help the environment if we only want to.

Hazel is into the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse for months now. She loves the song, the interactive episodes and Minnie Mouse! Tim asked me last Christmas what Hazel’s current fave and I told her that she just loves Minnie Mouse and when she sees her, she imitates the way she dances. Nakakatuwa! And when the show is on, you cannot take the remote control away from her! The hotdog dance needs to be finished before you can change channels. That’s how much she loves her Minnie, Mickey and Goofy!
Hehehe

I want a bigger bathroom. One that has a large window like the photo above. I want a bathroom where I can soak and wash away the burdens of the day. Whenever I see a celebrity’s home being featured on tv, the part I always wait for is the tour of the bathrooms. I was checking out Delta faucets at the hardware section of the mall the other day when I was reminded of the bathroom I saw in an architectural digest. I just want a bigger and better bathroom at home. Unfortunately, I don’t have the budget yet to act on it.
Soon.

There are gifts for her that you can choose from. There’s no reason for you not to buy her anything when you come for a visit. I don’t know why my friend is settling for second best. Always. I’ve never seen her be pampered by any of her past boyfriends. I thought this new one will be the one to treat her right. Apparently not.
I just doubt the guy’s true intention. I don’t know if that’s really love when he does not exert too much effort in being with her… Anyway, I just hope he got gifts for her when he comes for a visit soon. And I pray he treats her right.

Sometimes, I feel guilty for being happy.
I just feel like there are so many things to think of, worry about, and there I was laughing my heart out. Like last night. Now, I am bothered because I will be going out tonight again to meet up with two former staff of mine. But this was planned way before and has been postponed a number of times already. I feel like I want to back out but I already said yes and I don’t want to disappoint them. Sigh.
Now I envy those people who only think of themselves.

A neighbor brought plants over to my grandma’s house. She loves giving plants like the Beautiful Spring Tulip Garden to older neighbors. You know what? My grandma appreciated the gesture. It really made her smile, especially when she saw the tulips. Well, who wouldn’t smile when you receive a plant or a flower arrangement? It will certainly make the day of someone who needs a lift.
I wish my grandma has a space at her house where she can put plants. Because when I saw her smile upon receiving the plant from our neighbor, I just know it will be the same reaction had there been a garden at her home she can tend to every day.
I don’t know with you but I feel like a plant or flower brings positive energy into the house. It feels like the sunshine is coming in, bathing the room with a positive glow. We have a mini garden at home with a few potted plants. My dad takes care of the plants. He loves it. It makes me wish that we have a bigger place so he can have a garden of his own. You know what they say about old people and gardening? The latter is good for the heart of the former.
