In honor of my greatest adventure of all time (Haha!), I am recounting the breezy days I spent in the land of the free. ;)  Initially, I wanted to document EVERYTHING from that trip.  You know, for records purpose, in case my memory turns its back on me.  But, I simply didn't have the time nor the energy to write then as my senses tried to take ( Read more... )

My New York-based friend asked me to help arrange a surprise party for her husband. They came home last Sunday, and I took it upon myself to make a banner for a more 'surprise' effect! :)

So, my dad got to check on our car this morning, and sadly, he found more damages when he removed the spare tire. :(  Turned out there are dents in the rear door, the rear wiper got misaligned, the door handle got loose, and the leather inside the fiber case got cut.

I filed for an under time from work today to go to Ateneo, work on my statistics, and submit my draft to my adviser.  For 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the traffic in Santolan was unusually heavy.  Because of that, when I got to Katipunan flyover, the traffic was already bad.  When I leave Green Hills by 2pm, I can reach Ateneo by 2:30.

Post analyzing 2011, I can't put a solid verdict on how it was.  So, let me just piece apart the highlights of the year.  Naturally, there are also frustrations.  I'm typing those down in the hope that putting it out online means putting it out of my body system.  Hehe!  Anyway, here goes:

January -  My January was spent studying for my MA ( Read more... )

Despite the holiday rush and the traffic madness
Despite the money spent

Despite the anticipated additional pounds
Despite the thesis that has to be worked on
Despite the work that is waiting
Despite the bonus that is na-dah (Huhuhu!)Despite the very subtle Christmas spirit

It's still with joy, and a hopeful heart, that I greet and wish you a very merry ( Read more... )

Now, more than ever, I find the need for my parents to get a new house.

You see, lately, I've been so hooked with paper crafting.  And please don't laugh when I say that by paper crafting I mean not literal paper projects, but browsing the internet day after day, checking for cheap crafting tools to buy and looking at crafting spaces to drool over.
