It hit our area too five times but thankfully, it wasn't that&amp;nbsp;disastrous&amp;nbsp;like how it cracked the lands of Negros. For the first time in my 25 years of existence, I've experienced such horrifying work of nature. It was not even as hard as recent quake that hit Japan but it made my heart jumped with fear.&amp;nbsp;It was my first time&amp;nbsp;to experience that hard of an earthquake for five times in a day. Must it be what others have said, the end of the world?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IyykYPahDos/T0JpK1L8kQI/AAAAAAAAIe0/_oDQ-Wq1b4M/s1600/Earthquake-in-Negros-Occidental-11.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="212" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IyykYPahDos/T0JpK1L8kQI/AAAAAAAAIe0/_oDQ-Wq1b4M/s320/Earthquake-in-Negros-Occidental-11.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;Photo not mine.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It&amp;nbsp;occurred&amp;nbsp;around noon. I was in my apartment, well, obviously as a blogger I was in front my computer while my father was outside drinking coconut wine and sister was upstairs sleeping when the shake happened. It wasn't that hard at first, merely&amp;nbsp;unnoticeable but moments later the earth&amp;nbsp;shaken&amp;nbsp;me off my computer chair. Then I heard people outside screaming, "earthquake! earthquake!" Father hurried inside to call us out. We three then hurried outside the apartment to join our neighbors on the road in panic. It is advised to be outside a building when there's earthquake,&amp;nbsp;preferably&amp;nbsp;on a ground under a clear sky to avoid falling objects. We followed it. God knows how scared I was, we were rather. I was both worried for our safety and so as my mother because she was far form us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since it happened nearly Valentine's day, some youngsters here joked around saying the Earth was thrilled for it was almost time to celebrate the hearts day. Tsk, youngsters! They've managed to laugh about it while the people wherein the disastrous quake fell had suffered with horror. The horror was further intensified by the tsunami alarm. My mother that day sent us all a message that we should all gather together and run to a higher ground. If the Earth that day was thrilled for the coming of Valentine's day, it sure was in a bad way. I hope and pray that it will not happen again.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1794832278634400394-5107054849787751649?l=chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~4/do7WL4JcjN8" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~3/do7WL4JcjN8/earth-was-thrilled-by-coming-of-hearts.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Chie_Wilks)</author><media:thumbnail url="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IyykYPahDos/T0JpK1L8kQI/AAAAAAAAIe0/_oDQ-Wq1b4M/s72-c/Earthquake-in-Negros-Occidental-11.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com/2012/02/earth-was-thrilled-by-coming-of-hearts.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1794832278634400394.post-181111750420475494</guid><pubDate>Mon, 13 Feb 2012 14:33:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2012-02-13T22:33:56.971+08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">blogging</category><title>Climbs Up To Page Rank 3</title><description>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EjYYAkLL3wA/TzkeZsduCKI/AAAAAAAAId4/YFXwYcQyRsU/s1600/pr3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="121" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EjYYAkLL3wA/TzkeZsduCKI/AAAAAAAAId4/YFXwYcQyRsU/s320/pr3.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I am pointing to this blog that climbed back up to PR3. After the dilemma of keeping an unproductive blog due to low page rank + default-domained, this blog finally got its rank back. It was just a week ago when I received and boasted my PR2 blog shirt, which is a prize I won from a giveaway using this blog. Yet now, after celebrating that winning, I am celebrating another winning, which is this blog's page rank. I am very thankful to Google for giving back this blog's rank. Thank you! For how long will I enjoy this current page rank? Do your blogs' page ranks climbed up too?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1794832278634400394-181111750420475494?l=chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~4/Ykiq2AeGBKg" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~3/Ykiq2AeGBKg/climbs-up-to-page-rank-3.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Chie_Wilks)</author><media:thumbnail url="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EjYYAkLL3wA/TzkeZsduCKI/AAAAAAAAId4/YFXwYcQyRsU/s72-c/pr3.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>4</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com/2012/02/climbs-up-to-page-rank-3.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1794832278634400394.post-2485495144253371989</guid><pubDate>Wed, 08 Feb 2012 13:15:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2012-02-08T21:15:42.080+08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">love and relationship</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">family</category><title>Sharing A Heart Touching Story of A Little Boy</title><description>&lt;div&gt;You surely have read this story already over the internet. I remember I've read it once way back but reading this story again made me teary-eyed. And I couldn't help but share it to you. It is worth reading.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.facebook.com/BatmanHELP"&gt;&lt;img src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/429658_324813097557739_324264230945959_900591_839547015_n.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;photo not mine&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Really heart touching! Read it PLEASE though its too long!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was walking around in a Big Bazar store making shopping, when I saw&amp;nbsp;a Cashier talking to a boy couldn't have been more than 5 or 6 years&amp;nbsp;old.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Cashier said, 'I'm sorry, but you don't have enough money to buy&amp;nbsp;this doll. Then the little boy turned to me and asked: ''Uncle, are&amp;nbsp;you sure I don't have enough money?''&lt;br /&gt;
I counted his cash and replied: ''You know that you don't have enough&amp;nbsp;money to buy the doll, my dear.'' The little boy was still holding the&amp;nbsp;doll in his hand and I asked him who he wished to give&amp;nbsp;this doll to. 'It's the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so&amp;nbsp;much . I wanted to Gift her for her BIRTHDAY.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my&amp;nbsp;sister when she goes there.' His eyes were so sad while saying this.&amp;nbsp;'My Sister has gone to be with God.. Daddy says that Mommy is going to&amp;nbsp;see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with&amp;nbsp;her to give it to my sister...'&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My heart nearly stopped. The little boy looked up at me and said: 'I&amp;nbsp;told daddy to tell mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I&amp;nbsp;come back from the mall.' Then he showed me a very nice photo of him&amp;nbsp;where he was laughing. He then told me 'I want mommy to take my&amp;nbsp;picture with her so my sister won't forget me.' 'I love my mommy and I&amp;nbsp;wish she doesn't have to leave me, but daddy says that she has to go&amp;nbsp;to be with my little sister.' Then he looked again at the doll with&amp;nbsp;sad eyes, very quietly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I quickly reached for my wallet and said to the boy. 'Suppose we check&amp;nbsp;again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll?''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'OK' he said, 'I hope I do have enough.' I added some of my money to&amp;nbsp;his with out him seeing and we started to count it. There was enough&amp;nbsp;for the doll and even some spare money.&lt;br /&gt;
The little boy said: 'Thank you God for giving me enough money!'&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then he looked at me and added, 'I asked last night before I went to&amp;nbsp;sleep for God to make sure I had enough money to buy this doll, so&amp;nbsp;that mommy could give It to my sister. He heard me!'' 'I also wanted&amp;nbsp;to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mommy, but I didn't&amp;nbsp;dare to ask God for too much. But He gave me enough to buy the doll&amp;nbsp;and a white rose. My mommy loves white roses.'&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I finished my shopping in a totally different state from when I&amp;nbsp;started. I couldn't get the little boy out of my mind. Then I&amp;nbsp;remembered a local news paper article two days ago, which mentioned a drunk man in a&amp;nbsp;truck, who hit a car occupied by a young woman and a little girl. The&amp;nbsp;little girl died right away, and the mother was left in a critical&amp;nbsp;state. The family had to decide whether to pull the plug on the&amp;nbsp;life-sustaining machine, because the young woman would not be able to&amp;nbsp;recover from the coma. Was this the family of the little boy?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Two days after this encounter with the little boy, I read in the news&amp;nbsp;paper that the young woman had passed away.. I couldn't stop myself as&amp;nbsp;I bought a bunch of white roses and I went to the funeral home where&amp;nbsp;the body of the young woman was exposed for people to see and make&amp;nbsp;last wishes before her burial. She was there, in her coffin, holding a&amp;nbsp;beautiful white rose in her hand with the photo of the little boy and&amp;nbsp;the doll placed over her chest. I left the place, teary-eyed, feeling&amp;nbsp;that my life had been changed for ever...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The love that the little boy had for his mother and his sister is&amp;nbsp;still, to this day, hard to imagine. And in a fraction of a second, a&amp;nbsp;drunk driver had taken all this away from him.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1794832278634400394-2485495144253371989?l=chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~4/PAbIGu0YKJM" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~3/PAbIGu0YKJM/sharing-heart-touching-story-of-little.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Chie_Wilks)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com/2012/02/sharing-heart-touching-story-of-little.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1794832278634400394.post-5336433381934835233</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Feb 2012 04:58:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2012-02-07T12:58:29.721+08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">personal</category><title>Putting On My PR2 Blog Shirt</title><description>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nGsHAUW4Frs/TzCtetMxNBI/AAAAAAAAIdA/mqASFCbqJYY/s1600/pr2blogko(2).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="160" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nGsHAUW4Frs/TzCtetMxNBI/AAAAAAAAIdA/mqASFCbqJYY/s400/pr2blogko(2).jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Here's me wearing my PR2 blog shirt. This is so far the third blog shirt I received. It fits very well on me although I am expecting a little room for a medium-sized shirt. I wore this last night to a night out party with friends (I was invited). I came home around two in the morning and before hitting the hay, I stopped for a while to take pictures of me wearing the shirt using &lt;a href="http://www.chie101.info/2012/01/12/a4-tech-anti-glare-webcam/"&gt;my webcam&lt;/a&gt;. Again, thank you Miss Gagay for hosting such awesome giveaway.&lt;br /&gt;

This shirt actually arrived one week ago but my mother just got the chance to bring the shirt today here in my apartment during her visit. So sorry for the late notice Ms. G.

I just found them cool as it never happened before. I was looking for my Papa last night to ask him to eat his dinner (I always have to force him to eat every meal) but I wasn't able to find him. I didn't know he was in my room watching a horror movie. I knew the TV in my room doesn't work. It had malfunctioned the day I moved in to this apartment. I thought it was damaged during the moving. But dad was able to fix it last night I bet for he was watching a movie on that TV. He might have gone tired listening to the metal songs I played in my computer last night that he decided to just watch a movie upstairs, in my room. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;How did I know he was up there? I was nursing my sister Cheem for she has fever (until now). I took her foods and medicines to her room when she asked me if I was watching the movie again that we had just watched earlier that day. I said no. She said maybe the neighbor was watching the movie for she kept hearing the scary song the killer ghost in the movie sings. I was alarmed by the thought that my sister had gone delirious due to high fever. So I told her to finish her dinner and then take her medicines. Just as I was about to go downstairs, I heard some sounds in my room and when I opened the door, I saw father watching the movie. I sighed with relief - my sister's not delirious and I found papskie.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I'll talk about the movie later. I am tired going up to my room at this moment to look for it and its title. But see on the TV screen if you are familiar with the scene.&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style="text-align: center;"&gt;I link this blog post to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.gregdemcy.net/" style="text-align: center;"&gt;366 Blog Photo Challenge&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="text-align: center;"&gt; -  Day 27.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1794832278634400394-5766238997502027574?l=chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~4/2bewV0NoeaQ" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~3/2bewV0NoeaQ/where-is-papskie.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Chie_Wilks)</author><media:thumbnail url="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5IemtmSwr7k/TyPOghunCaI/AAAAAAAAIaM/v4xolUozPH8/s72-c/11010689.JPG" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>10</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com/2012/01/where-is-papskie.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1794832278634400394.post-1921536082855863616</guid><pubDate>Thu, 26 Jan 2012 21:00:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2012-02-01T14:19:03.980+08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">helpful infos</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">health issues</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">home and living</category><title>Prescribe to Walgreens Prescription Savings Club</title><description>&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"&gt;This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of &lt;a href="http://app.socialspark.com/disclosure_clicks?oid=7113867" rel="nofollow"&gt;Walgreens&lt;/a&gt; for &lt;a href="http://izea.in/r3HZ" rel="nofollow"&gt;SocialSpark&lt;/a&gt;. All opinions are 100% mine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Commodity nowadays seems to be overly beyond affordable. The prices of whether goods or services are rapidly and uncontrollably increasing day by day. That goes the same with health and medication expense. &amp;nbsp;When before getting sick was expensive, now it is more expensive, a lot more. Daily expenses on medicines will truly ditch your wallet, not to mention the daily fees for a hospital room when confined. Sum all those amounts; let us say for five days confinement, you’ll get a huge number on your total hospital bill. But if you have a health prescription, you can save a lot off your hospital bills, including the medicines. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Since ailment is inevitable, everyone must be ready for it. One must get health prescription. &lt;a href="http://app.socialspark.com/clicks?lid=20879&amp;amp;oid=7113867" rel="nofollow"&gt;Walgreens Prescription Savings Club&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;offers a special discount on your annual membership. You can get an individual membership for $5 and a family membership for $10 per year. I find family membership a better option because it covers your spouse, your children of up to 22 years old and pets. Other benefits you can get from Walgreens Savings Club prescription&amp;nbsp;include savings on more than 8,000 brand-name and all generic medications on flu shots, nebulizers, diabetic supplies and even on pet prescriptions. You can as well get bonuses from purchasing Walgreens brand products and photofinishing services. You should prescribe now for your entire family. Stay updated with Walgreens latest deals by being a fan of &lt;a href="http://app.socialspark.com/clicks?lid=20883&amp;amp;oid=7113867" rel="nofollow"&gt;Walgreens on Facebook&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and a follower of &amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://app.socialspark.com/clicks?lid=20881&amp;amp;oid=7113867" rel="nofollow"&gt;Walgreens on Twitter&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Thank God! Octagon called me today afternoon was I was still asleep for I slept late yesterday from attending a friend's birthday. Knowing it was Octagon that called, I went to the computer shop right away to pick my CPU. Good thing I didn't need to pay for the repair because it is still under warranty. I forgot about it. It saved me some pesos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yQohyMLn5b0/TyAE1WYCQtI/AAAAAAAAIZg/9HK1rD2b12E/s1600/11010562.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yQohyMLn5b0/TyAE1WYCQtI/AAAAAAAAIZg/9HK1rD2b12E/s400/11010562.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I checked on my saved files right away when I arrived at my apartment with the CPU and glad all my files are still there, including the blog layouts I designed in Power Point. Now I can continue working on the job I left hanging. There are blog designing jobs that I need to finalize and articles I need to publish. I am running out of time since deadline is fast approaching. It means I'll be a busy bee again tonight.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1794832278634400394-5633682431382255050?l=chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~4/2flnYy_ZtsY" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~3/2flnYy_ZtsY/my-cpu-is-back.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Chie_Wilks)</author><media:thumbnail url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yQohyMLn5b0/TyAE1WYCQtI/AAAAAAAAIZg/9HK1rD2b12E/s72-c/11010562.JPG" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>1</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com/2012/01/my-cpu-is-back.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1794832278634400394.post-7681488715621923906</guid><pubDate>Tue, 24 Jan 2012 07:11:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2012-02-01T14:20:43.629+08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">women thing</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">wedding stuffs</category><title>White Flash Engagement Rings</title><description>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Who doesn't long to have even a tiny piece of diamond on jewelry? Women will never raise hands to that question. I myself admit I long for it but because it is expensive, I’ll just prefer to keep longing. For sure you've already heard the popular line "a woman's best friend" when talking about diamonds. Well, you can’t blame us women because diamonds bring not only class and luxury to our look when worn but also it adds beauty and elegance to every piece of metal we are wearing whether it is a ring, an earring or a pendant. Have you seen the collection of &lt;a href="http://www.whiteflash.com/diamond-pendants/"&gt;custom diamond pendants&lt;/a&gt; in White Flash? Never in my life I’ve had worn a diamond pendant and looking their collection only made me drool. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZCjNmpAm5rY/Tx5ZPrtn0iI/AAAAAAAAIYw/lAkV7AgOv4k/s1600/diamondpendant.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZCjNmpAm5rY/Tx5ZPrtn0iI/AAAAAAAAIYw/lAkV7AgOv4k/s1600/diamondpendant.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Because diamonds are precious, they are obviously expensive that they are mostly worn by celebrities and other people who are well-off. It may not be the most expensive gemstone there is as some said the most expensive are the rarest ones but I believe it is the most famous among other gemstones especially when it comes to jewelry and accessory making. It is what most jewelry makers prefer to use to adorn the precious white, rose and yellow gold metals because of its hardness forming into beautiful engagement rings and other forms of jewelry. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-fuwp10wERpo/Tx5ZRMEfPVI/AAAAAAAAIY4/vHbnsQvZKcg/s1600/wedding+set.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-fuwp10wERpo/Tx5ZRMEfPVI/AAAAAAAAIY4/vHbnsQvZKcg/s1600/wedding+set.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Speaking of engagement rings, diamonds are known to be famous when it comes to making the said rings. An engagement ring wouldn't be an engagement ring without diamonds. As earlier noticed, diamonds bring beauty and elegance and that applies to an engagement ring. Check out the sophisticated styles of &lt;a href="http://www.whiteflash.com/"&gt;houston diamond engagement rings&lt;/a&gt; at White Flash, one of the trusted jewelry shops where you can &lt;a href="http://www.whiteflash.com/diamond-engagement-rings/"&gt;buy diamond rings online&lt;/a&gt;.

Obviously I am still awake at this very moment. I have been a busy bee since yesterday...and until today. For the first time, I am loaded with a lot of writing jobs. For me who haven't been blessed with more than three writing jobs a day, I can say "a lot" for it's not just two or three but eight jobs with reasonable compensation, even more reasonable for my writing skill. I am too overwhelmed with it. I do hope though that all eight articles will be approved. I am not boasting here nor complaining, I am liking it actually. I am liking this reason of being a busy bee for it means getting a living. If only it could be like this everyday, I would gladly accept. Thank God!&lt;br /&gt;

Filomena Parish Church. Many of the family, relatives and friends came along to support the family of the deceased in that very moment of vain. The moment when they could only do a final glance at their beloved who couldn't be with them anymore physically. Although many would utter soothing words to calm the raging painful emotions of the family, still it is unacceptable that the person you most love have already left the world and couldn't be seen, couldn't be touched anymore. Seeing my aunt and her children crying as the worker finally covered the grave was very heartbreaking. It was too painful I know. At this time when the pain of being left by a loved-one is still fresh, it's hard for them to accept that they could no longer see him walking, talking, laughing but I know they'll forget the pain eventually and all that they can remember are the happy memories. &lt;br /&gt;

This picture actually was taken before I did those things.Thanks to Pabz for making me look tall and skinny in this picture.&amp;nbsp;I modeled this red bike which is temporarily mine. A friend borrowed money from me in exchange to this bike, a smart exchange for the money I lend to. Anyway, the reason why I was in the boulevard early that morning was to buy &lt;i&gt;balot&lt;/i&gt; as I was craving for it and then to do some walking. I did buy balot but I didn't do the walking.

I was upstairs just woke and was about to come down when I heard it. I hurried downstairs and to bathroom only to find out that the mud fish scared her. It was alive and wiggling on the &lt;a href="http://www.tileclick.co.uk/"&gt;Bathroom Floor Tiles&lt;/a&gt;. I got my eyebrows raised with confusion. Fish in not something that scares my sister. But what really scared her is that she didn't know it was there in the bathroom.&amp;nbsp;She was peeing when suddenly slippery thing moving at her foot and at her glance, she thought it was a snake.&amp;nbsp;How the heck it got itself there anyway? I knew there was one alive mud fish left from the ten mud fish father's friend gave to him but I didn't know he put it in a bucket in the bathroom. It must have managed to jump off the bucket for some bathroom exploration. Lol! Cheem got too scared that she fell her butt down the toilet bowl. That was ridiculous! She was the laughing stock that day.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1794832278634400394-371229569236056752?l=chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~4/6y1xcndSWmA" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ChuchiesHideaway/~3/6y1xcndSWmA/mud-fish-scare.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Chie_Wilks)</author><media:thumbnail url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nFO4PG2-6m4/TxA1XJF-BjI/AAAAAAAAIXQ/aQtHmACBfGo/s72-c/383205_2960621815485_1259758418_33216534_360177703_n.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://chuchieshideaway.blogspot.com/2012/01/mud-fish-scare.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1794832278634400394.post-4201474650324392657</guid><pubDate>Thu, 12 Jan 2012 20:41:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2012-01-14T01:01:53.241+08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">personal</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">blog photo challenge</category><title>12/366 BPC - Christmas Gifts Under the Tree</title><description>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-iKF0uVeIVCk/Tw8-LmmKM1I/AAAAAAAAIXI/xGa5hJeFEXo/s1600/DSC02190.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="348" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-iKF0uVeIVCk/Tw8-LmmKM1I/AAAAAAAAIXI/xGa5hJeFEXo/s400/DSC02190.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As a continuation to the photo of me hugging the impostor giant snowman, here's another photo taken still in the man-made land of USA in the Dipolog City boulevard. This time, I was opening (trying to) the gifts&amp;nbsp;Santa&amp;nbsp;dropped under a tree not far away from the snowman. The trembling rain shower didn't stop me from opening the first gift only to find out it was properly wrapped. I gave up and decided to buy balut instead.

It's an impostor! Lol! It's only made of wood, the skeleton or frame, formed into a make-believe snowman covered with white cloth. This giant snowman was one of the amusements in the boulevard. It voluntarily bounced from the USA, its hat can tell, to Dipolog City to give amusement to the by-passers,visitors and chillers at the boulevard. I was fortunate enough to be able to hug it one early morning while I was there to buy &lt;i&gt;balut&lt;/i&gt;. At such a short moment, I felt like I was in the United States of America.&lt;br /&gt;

Credit to my friend for taking this picture of me with my father on my 25th birthday. It is very seldom to see him in pictures with us as he doesn't like camera flash that much. My birthday went just fine even though my mother and brother weren't able to come over and celebrate it. My father, sisters and friends made my birthday celebration fun at least.&lt;br /&gt;

These are the Christmas gifts that my sister and I helped getting and wrapping for our parents, brother and the kids in the house after celebrating &lt;a href="http://www.chie101.info/2012/01/08/i-am-25-years-old/"&gt;my little birthday party&lt;/a&gt; at my apartment in Dipolog City. We brought these gifts on the afternoon of the 25th since we didn't able to come home on the Christmas Eve. So the opening of gifts happened on the night of December 25, still Christmas. I enjoyed looking at the recipients excited faces as they opened their gifts. I wrapped Unisilver watches for father, brother and sisters and a Secosana bag for my mother. It was nice looking at their happy faces to have at least received a gift on Christmas. I was able to open gifts that night too. I received a Bobson top from Cheep and a pair of Unisilver butterfly earrings from Cheem. We&amp;nbsp;didn't&amp;nbsp;wrap gifts this year for all my godchildren for I did not have the money for it. It was sad but the current financial situation couldn't be helped. We didn't even have a Christmas preparation, which was alright. At least we all were able to be together on Christmas day.&lt;br /&gt;

Online work kept me occupied since early morning yesterday. I was blogging, clicking ptc ads, and writing sponsored posts while listening to some metal, rock music...and oh, while sipping few cups of coffee.

This is a very late blog post entry to claim my prize - a page rank shirt to Gagay's contest. I am so sorry for I've been very busy going out and about last December not to mention the busy preparations for the special occasions I've celebrated during that month. There were two birthdays (mine and my youngest sister's) to prepare, the Christmas eve, alumni homecoming and New Year. Last month/year was pretty a busy month for me so I hope I could still get a chance to claim my consolation prize, which is a medium &lt;a href="http://gagaymd.com/2011/12/page-rank-shirt-winners.html#comment-12468"&gt;Page Rank 2 Shirt&lt;/a&gt;.
