QUICK POST

This is a quick post. I just want to have a little update here in my blog. My life is going well and God never ceases pouring his tremendous blessings. Although, I can't deny the fact that there are frustrations along the way. But, to sum it up. I am filled with so much awe as God never fails to bring joy into my life.

Tomorrow, I'll be attending a Seminar-Workshop on Best Practices in the Governance of State Colleges and Universities in Bacolod City together with our accountant and my supervisor. So, I'll be in business with pleasure again.

On July 27 - August 1, I'll be leaving for Palawan for another seminar. I am really looking forward to it because Palawan is a dream vacation destination for me.

Well, I've got to end this quick post now because it's five already and I'm set o go home.

'Til next post.

WORRIES

Until now, I haven’t attended a Housing Loan Seminar from PAG-IBIG and J is irritated with me already. I am waiting for the go signal from my officemate because we have decided that we will attend the seminar together since she also wants to avail of the Housing Loan. We are both so busy that we have neglected the PAG – IBIG thing.

J wants me to process all the requirements as early as possible because he wants that our “planned” house construction will not be delayed and will go on continuously as soon as he finished his contract. He is into working hard and saving hard as well, right now. The proceeds of our housing loan will serve as a reserve fund if ever we run out of funds in financing our “planned” construction.

Hopefully, by the end of July, I already have in my possession the certificate of attendance from PAG – IBIG ^_^ so that J will be pacified.

Attending Housing Loan Seminar is not only my concern. Actually, I have a lot of concerns with regards to the house construction issue. One of which is the house plan. Until now, I have not paid the architect who made our house plan. I am really hoping I could pay him as soon as funds are available, so that, I could have the house plan with me.
Another thing I worry is the pest control. You see, there are a lot of rats in our lot especially now that it is neglected unlike before when J was around that every week end grasses are trimmed. How I wish some pest control like Chicago Pest Control is available here in our locality because they really care for their customers more than anything else and that they offer the most affordable rates.

There are really a lot of things that worry me now. I just do hope I could be able to fix them one at a time.

I DID IT!!!!!

It's been a week that I forsake this blog. I haven't updated this intentionally, not to mention, I was also very busy these past few days. I've been very busy with paper works. I had left and right appointment papers to print out and issue, as well as, the Notice of Salary Adjustment of our employees. The first tranche increase of government employees took effect yesterday and that's what keeps me busy also. In fact, I'm not done with it yet. I'll gonna finish it later.

The reason also why I didn't update my blog intentionally is, I'm watching my diet. From 116.6 lbs last week, I'm down to 114.84. I have exceeded my target for this week which is .75 kgs. or 1.65 lbs. I'm really so happy that I DID IT!!! Determination + Patience = GREAT SUCCESS.

This day commences another week of my diet journey. I aim to shed off another .75 lbs. May I'll end up successful again next Thursday. 4.84 lbs to go until my journey is over and I am soooo determined to triumph ^_^.

NEW CRAZE

Biofitea is the new craze here in our office. Majority of us female employees, take this tea to help us loss weight. It's been 2 weeks now that I am taking this tea and believe me it is effective. The last time I weighed myself, I was 120 lbs. 2 days ago I weighed myself again and I am so happy to see that I am already 116.6 lbs. 6 lbs to go until my ideal weight which is 110 lbs.

I think it is not because of Biofit at all. The tea has helped me a lot in removing wastes and toxins from my body and it is really a great help in digestion. But honestly, taking tea and eating too much will not help. Aside from Biofit, I lessened my rice intake and I am counting my calories. I am into 737 calories/day - diet this week to enable me to loss .75 kgs or 1.65 lbs. I hope by Tuesday I could already loss the .75 kgs excess. God be with me in my journey!!!

WHAT J MUST DO

J is bugging me to get a passport. Yes! Until now I don’t have a passport with me. He wants me to have a passport because according to him it would be an advantage. If the budget permits, we could go out of the country and take a little vacation anytime, without worries.
I see his point clearly. But, I am so stubborn. I want to get a passport if he could assure me we could go to Disneyland, Hong Kong right after I have my passport in my possession. And, I am standing by that decision. Meaning, to convince me he should save for the Hong Kong trip, hehehe.

I’ll do my part of the trip by looking for an affordable place to stay. I am so glad that Accor Hotels City Super Sale is around. Travellers will be able to take advantage of savings of up to 60% when they book on-line between 23 - 29 June, for stays between July 10 and September 30, 2009. What a great deal, right?

My personal choice is Hotel Novotel Hong Kong Century located in the heart of Wanchai. I simply want to stay in the center of bustling commercial, shopping and entertainment district. What else is there to do in a trip but to have fun, fun, and more fun.

Start saving now, Gah, hahahaha.

TWILIGHT

I know, this post is super outdated. But, I wouldn't let this day pass me by without posting how I love the Twilight Saga.

I've watched the Twilight movie and believe me I wasn't able to appreciate it. But, when I begin reading the book, I got hooked in it. I fell in love with Bella and Edward. I think it's fair to say I fell in love with Edward Cullen more, hehehe.

I think, the reason why I didn't enjoy the Twilight movie is because the director wasn't able to capture Edward and Bella's emotion. In the book, the emotions of the couple were greatly described. There was a point, I ended up crying. That's how emotional I am. ^-^

Right now, I'm reading Breaking Dawn and I'm loving how Bella and Edward love each other.

I can't wait to finish reading the book.

6 MONTHS TO GO

6 months to go, and its Christmas again. Whew!!! It was just like yesterday when we celebrated Christmas of 2008. I really love this time of the year. Shopping for gifts to give my god – children and especially my loved – ones is what excites me.

Last year, I was able to give my Mom a watch as a gift. But that watch was not really the kind I want to give her. It was not a so – expensive watch. My mom deserves nothing but the best. Hopefully, I could give her a Rolex watch this December. That is really what I want to give her.

I am so glad that, we will have a salary increase this July. I could start saving the differential I’ll get starting next month to purchase the gift I longed to give to my Mom. I am thinking of purchasing a Rolex watch from www.bestoftime.com because they offer it at a substantial discount.

I am really hoping and praying that I could give the luxury my Mom deserves this December. It’s my long time dream and I am eager to make my dream come true. Hopefully, I could get one for myself too, hehehehe. I also deserve a little luxury, right? ^_^
