Brotherhood and Friendship

I am a big movie fan. I enjoy watching all types. In the movie Independence Day, there is a seen where Judd Hirsh gives his last two Cigars to Will Smith before he and Jeff Goldbloom go to blow up the Alien Mother ship. Those cigars were Will’s “good luck.” I don’t know if you saw that movie or not, but the cigars were a very useful prop, one that signalled brotherhood and friendship.

Perhaps one of the most famous Cigar smokers was Winston Chruchill. He has a cigar named after him. Quality Cigars, like Rocky Patel cigars, make a fine gift for friend relative or coworker. I don’t smoke but I know my husband has friends who enjoy a good cigar from time to time. Cigars make a fine gift for those who enjoy a good smoke.

PBWeekend: Happy Faith

On Thursday, my eldest daughter's P.E. would be swimming. She invited me to watch her since her teacher would ask her to do some strokes alone. Her teacher would teach her classmates and since she knows how to swim she just asked to do some work outs.,

While I and Faith was on our way to the venue, I took some pictures of her at the club house. She looks so gaily as I took her there with me. Right after we watched her sister, we went to Jollibee to buy her some snacks.

We were on our way here yet,
we were still waiting for the tricycle to arrive this time.

She was so happy when we arrived at the club house


Faith was waiting for the tricycle to take us at the gate
so we could buy her some snacks at Jollibee

I'd Been Crying The Whole Day!

Yes, that was yesterday! My God I never thought I could cry the whole day. It must have hurt me that much that's why I can't help my tears to well-up enormously! Well, you might want to know why I cried so hard last night, this is how it went:

There's a movie I long had been waiting to watch and I promised myself to find some time to watch it but I was always busy and I could not find that damn time for myself, to the fact it is shown for how many days in the theater already. Until yesterday, I supposed to grocery shop and go to the dentist but I didn't because if I did, I can't watch it anymore since I have to go back at home to fetch Mj for her training.

The movie was so fun but as the story goes, it kept me crying so hard. I had a bad eye bags yesterday but still I enjoy the movie. You might want to watch it is "My Amnesia Girl". ,When I and Mj arrived home last night the “I am Sam” the movie was about to start so while blogging I was also listening to it but one scene caught my attention and suddenly I found myself watching and crying again. Mind you I was still crying when I hit the bed early at dawn.

Now, I watched two movies "The Apprentice Sorcerer" and "The Going to Distance" Thank God I didn't cry like a river but I still had so much fun! Oh my! Why do I have to cry over a movie, my GOD I know you would think I am that weird, hmmm maybe just maybe slight. LOL

Good Job Faith!

If Faith won't sleep yet before sister Merlyn has to go home, she always asks Faith to accompany her to the gate so she could give the key to my daughter. We always locked the gate whenever sister Merlyn has to go home to secure us from intruders. Faith was so good to follow her commands and when she comes back inside our house, she would give me the keys that my sister gave her.


Here's Faith waiting for her Aunt to give her the keys, she noticed that I took her a picture so she tried to pose for a moment and smiled at the camera.

Now my little Faith is ready to give me the keys so I could put it inside our bedroom. Good job little Girl!

A Mouse Click Away

We girls know that health and beauty are two of our top priorities. We want to be healthy and to look good for our families. The health and beauty products are always in demand. I am interested in learning of new ways to make money. Finding the highest paying affiliate programs may only be a mouse click away. I want to be healthy and beautify for my family, and I want others to improve their health and to look good also.

Dentist and Movie

I will be going out early this morning again; I have to go to my Dentist because the tooth that she root canal hurts me so bad especially when I am drinking cold water. My eldest daughter would be home before noon from her periodical exam so I should out in the house before she arrives because I have to get home again to fetch her and send her to the pool.

After the appointment for my Dentist, I hope to watch the movie "My Amnesia Girl" I heard a good review from my friend in Facebook, too bad my kids can't be with me since this is not good for them yet. But I promised them we could watch the "Tangle" together, I wonder when it will show here.

Don't Just Buy With Any Less

We have to be aware that there are side effects of weight loss pills when we don't take extra careful of what we are taking in. Thus, if you want to enjoy being slim at all, you should be taking some reviews of which diet pills are effective yet doesn't have a negative side effects. I tell you if you take some time to read and listen to reliable sources, you would not only be enjoying your losing weight but you are also worry free of getting bad side effects. Isn’t it advantage for you when you know that you are healthy? So don’t just buy with any less but make sure, you get more benefits of that product you want to buy.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I really wanted to watch the movie I promised myself to watch this month but I was too busy today even though Mj did not attend her training because her periodical test would be tomorrow and she has a tutor she need to attain to after class.

This morning, Mj asked me if I and Faith could go to the venue where their swimming for P.E. is held every Thursday. Since Faith woke up so early, we went to the pool early in the morning to watch her sister performed what she learned from the training. After we watched her, I told her we should go, so to at least treat Faith in Jollibee, they had a buy one take one promotion today in the celebration for their 19th anniversary, the store was jam-packed with customers and the line was so long yet we did not leave the place, we still fall in line to buy her favorite fries, right after the long dreaded line, we took a cab for us to get home.

Sister Merlyn arrived late in the afternoon already. I was watching TV when I realized I have to pay the tuition fee of Mj, so I drag myself to SM to withdraw some money then I went to the school immediately. She was still reviewing her notes with her tutor so I waited for her outside their classroom; it was already 6:30 p.m. when they finished their review.

I am still too tired with today's agenda yet I should not forget to greet all of you especially my husband a Happy Thanksgiving!


Teenagers Problem

Acnes are becoming rampant to all teenagers especially when they are sleeping too late at night or eating too much oily foods. Most often than not taking your diet for granted and too much stress could be the caused of acne, and to get rid of it some people would take their diet and their sleeping hours seriously, some would simply used an acne cleanser for it to heal their pimples right away. My eldest daughter will become a teenager soon, as a Mom I am now looking for the best cleanser for her although I hope she doesn't have much problem with acne just like me before.

Watery Wednesday # 2: Pool

Watery Wednesday

When it is too hot especially at summer, we would love to dip in the water, most probably in the pool. I took this picture during summer time two years ago, it was a fun-filled family getaway.

Ruby Tuesday # 30: Christmas Tree

We were just hopping around the mall when I saw these displays along the entertainment area, of course I absolutely know what meme I should submit these images so in a moment or two, I pose for:

Ruby Tuesday




I should took a picture of it alone to view the whole Christmas tree, I still don't have one here at home but I promised my kids I would put one up next week. I just hope it will be like this so amazingly beautiful.

A Project By Early Next Year

I have so many plans these days actually it has been running around in my mind already even before, I want to own a house again for me and my kids, it is really hard when you are just renting because you can't do what you want to your house. Besides this is what I want to leave to my kids when I can be no longer be with them, but my funds are not enough to buy a unit for us, how I wish there is a payday loans here in our area, so I could start with my plan right away. A company that will accommodates a stay at home Mom like me, is that possible for a loan company that doesn't require any job background for the applicant? How I wish that if they have it in here, documents from my husband that he is supporting us monthly basis would be enough as a requirement. But even so, I know God will always make a way for me to reach my goal this year or early next year and when I am done with that, I also would try to purchase a family car so it is easy for me to fetch Mj from school to her training thus it would be more affordable than to commute with a taxi every night.

PBWeekend : At Bigbys

We supposed to watch the Megamind in 3D yesterday but when we went to the mall after church, the Megamind was replace by Harry Potter already. So we decided to just eat in Bigbys for lunch, then we headed home afterwards. Mj were disappointed but what can we do but to wait for the Rapunzel instead. It says it will show soon, thus we're waiting for it. I hope we will not be late again!

Happy Birthday Cheryl!


Yesterday was the birthday of my friend Cheryl, she invited me since two days ago but too bad I was not able to attend her birthday party. I was so droopy and so lazy, all I want to do is just to sit down and watch Mj with her training and talking to a parent from the pool. She called me and asked where I was, I just told her I was not feeling well and I feel like my eyes would close any moment.

Anyway, I just want to greet my dear friend Cheryl a Happy Birthday! I am really sorry girl for not being there with you to celebrate, I know you understand. I wish you for a happy life ahead and more blessings!

Window Shopping for a New Phone

I will be going out early today to buy myself an inhaler for my asthma, it still attacking me now especially at night, the Doctor recommended I should buy one for myself the soonest possible time. Then I will also go to my insurance company to pay my contributions, and I will do grocery shopping later. I hope I still have time to walk around the mall to window shop for a new cell phone, actually I am wondering right now what is the best gift for Mj this Christmas, I thought about a psp player for virtual games but I guess it would be more practical if I will just go to a Nintendo shop to replace the monitor cover, or the screen of her Nintendo since it has a lot of scratch, then we will pursue to buy her a new phone.

Mj's phone is not working at all and it is hard for me to contact her if there’s any emergency occurs, like if I can’t fetch her up at school and she has to join the carpool going home. We had numbers of incident that she was left by a carpool, thinking I would fetch her from school for training. Good thing that the driver of the carpool understand our situation that every time I call him to get back for Mj he would do it.

This is my first entry for Watery Wednesday. As my eldest daughter loves water, I always capture her swimming on her training everyday. And I guess my youngest would follow her footsteps as well. But today I will gonna show you the fountain from a place where I and my BFF visited two years ago.


All worth it

I and the kids will go out today, I will have to treat them in exchange for their disappointments, I hope they will be okay and I hope I could get them some items that are for sale. My funds are not enough here, good thing I have some savings in the bank I could withdraw, it was supposed to be for my sister Merlyn's store this Christmas but since we don't deserve such disappointment. A little shopping with my kids is all worth it.

PBWeekend : The Nature

When we went to a hill top restaurant, I was so amazed of the beauty of the nature that surrounds the area. I hope the government would still maintain the trees because without them, tragedy such as landslides and floods would occur even only with minimal rains.

To stay healthy and beautiful

Ever since I really don’t have any serious acne problems unlike some other women out the, they need to do everything yet just to get rid of it. From high school to college I never gone myself an acne treatment, you know why? It is because I don’t use hard make ups or toner in my face. Somehow those hard beauty products would cause you allergies and the like then afterwards acne would show up in your cheeks. That’s why I keep on giving my piece of advice to my niece who is already in 4th year high school right now, to avoid using make ups, creams or foundation, she just have to use a mild soap for her face so to maintain the smoothness and softness of her skin, sometimes keeping your life simple could make you stay healthy and beautiful.

Seek A Professional Help

Drug addiction continues to be a very serious problem for all parts or our society. Drug addiction can destroy an individual and their loved ones. Opiates (derivatives of the narcotic Opium) are particularly dangerous because of the ease with which they can become habit forming. Breaking this addiction often requires severe measures. The first step is to get the drug out of the body. A rapid opiate detox program may be the first step in combating addiction. Opiates are controlled substances; even those that are medically prescribed may be abused. If you know somebody who has a drug problem, they need professional help and the full support of their family.

Music Video of My Amnesia Girl

I swear to GOD, I would really watch the movie My Amnesia Girl. When I saw the thriller of the movie, I immediately love it especially when they aired the music video entitled "Mahal Kita Kasi" I tell you the movie was so cute!


"Thank you Lord ha? Pandesal lang naman hiningi ko sayo
Hamburger ibinigay nyo, may fries pa! Awwww!

Too Late!

I knew it; I would eat too much when I am so hungry. I think I need to start looking for a diet weight loss pills because my tummy bloated again. Just today, I went to a parlor to have my hair done. It was a 6 hours session since they have to re-bond my hair which I agree because a hair treatment doesn’t have an effect at all with my damage hair.

They started it at 11:00 a.m. and they finished it at 4:00 p.m., I was already so starving because I did not take my lunch yet, when I arrived home to pick up Mj for her training, I went to the kitchen immediately but I could see no rice at all, I told Mj to hurry up and decided to just eat in the canteen at the venue, thus how unlucky day it was because we encountered a heavy traffic. In short I’ve eaten my lunch exactly at 6:00 in the evening!

Couples Corner: What we have accomplished

It is Saturday night here, as usual we just arrived from Mj's training for swimming. She is doing good although her coach recommends her to do the everyday training; I am not sure if we could compromise but let's see.

Anyway, here's my catching up entry for:

Rodliz’s Nest

All things happened was unexpected I got pregnant when the papers were on processed, as I thought it has been better for me to just deliver the baby here. I asked him to put it on hold. After Faith was born we tried everything to continue the process but I guess all the papers were misplaced so we decided to get married here instead. Until now, we are still waiting for it, I hope and I pray it will be soon enough. For now, we are still dreaming yet of a together happy family, please pray for us!

PBWeekend : Ninang

Oh no! I'd never been this late in posting my Meme's but please bear with me, my Internet connection went crazy since last week, and recently I can't view any of my website at all, and even in your websites. It was only yesterday that my connections perfectly went back! Thanks goodness, because if they will not fix their base station a week more, I would really have them disconnect my Internet so I could look for another Internet service provider.

Moreover, I attended a baptismal for my friend's son; they arrived here last month from Texas for a long vacation. And for that, they have their son baptized as well. I was the Ninang so I have to be there, and so to see my friend, whom I haven't seen for a while.

In your most downfall moments

As we get older our insurance needs change. We need more assistance in our day to day leaving. As we become older Medicare will cover some or a portion of our medical needs. However it will not cover all the costs, medicare supplement plans can help reduce the financial impact of medical care, especially if you are disabled or have other special needs. I hope they offer like this service in my country as there are many people need this kind of service. A kind of service that you know you are taken cared of even in your most downfall moments.

You may all have a bountiful Christmas!

Christmas is along the corner, I could see glittering Christmas lights in our neighborhood, Christmas tree in the mall or in every house, and the various styles of Christmas lanterns. I only have one wish this Christmas and that is to be together with my husband forever without shedding our tears in the airport because he has to go back in the states. We are tired of it; we are tired of being so miles apart.

But even so, you all may have a bountiful and blissful Christmas, whatever happens, life still has to move on. Advance Merry Christmas everyone!

Nothing much, except

Nothing much interesting happen today except my Internet connection is still so slow, nothing change, when would they fixed it? I don't know and I'm really not sure. Right now I am using my USB Internet connection and since it is still a Smart bro it is still so slow. But well at least I could EC drop and the page would load complete unlike with the cable, it really won't.

While, I wash our dishes tonight, my eldest daughter bathes my youngest daughter. And when I prepared our dinner, Mj dressed Faith right after she finished bathing her. Now, we are enjoying our favorite tele serye Imortal, well not Faith though, she prepares Mr. Bean, Shaun the Sheep, and Pheneas and Ferb.

Couples Corner : Glimpse in the Future

I and my husband started being just friends, so I never expected it was he, whom I would end up to. I keep on teasing him before when we chat that I have a three eyes and the third eye was in the in between of my two eyes. And I told him that I can't walk as I only have one leg. He keeps on laughing then later everything gets serious, he courted me and he waited one month for me to answer him of his proposal.

As he thought he could not give me any child any more so we focused on Mj, where will she studied and what course she should be taking. We also thought to get married in the US right after he went here to see me. I will work there while my eldest is in school and after how many years of staying there, we will go to Norway to settle down or in Australia.

But it turned out the different way and that will be our next topic.
