my life's journey

Some nice cigars online

2012-05-28T19:59:00.002+02:00

While browsing the net,my husband found some nice Dutch Masters cigars.He said he would love to try it as well as the other cigars he saw online.But he already bought some cigars last month He smokes more cigarettes than cigars.He smokes cigars once in awhile that’s why it lasted very long.

I’ve been telling him to stop smoking butstill he couldn’t I just hope that my husband would cease doing it and I’ll be happier.

Excited for our Portugal vacation!

2012-05-16T11:09:00.003+02:00

Now that the weather is starting to be good and summer is so near,many people are starting to plan their vacations.Just like us,we already strated preparing for the things we gonna bring.The other day,I bought swim wears for us.A couple of swimsuits for me and some swim shorts for my 3 men.We are thinking of buying a bike rack coz Alex wanted to bring his bike.Good thing that we still have ample time to look for a nice and affordable rack bike before we leave.

We are so excited for our vacation in Portugal.It's been 3 year since the last time we were there.I hope it's gonna be fun and memorable!

My first homemade cinnamon buns

2012-05-16T10:28:00.000+02:00

I miss eating cinnamon buns.If only it's available here,I will buy it frequently but I never seen cinnamon buns here in France.The last time I ate it was when we were in Philippines 2 years ago.I was really drooling for it that I tried baking some.It was my first attempt and it came out good!Though it's not perfect but it tasted real good and almost the same cinnamon bread that I usually have in Davao :)

I am so happy that now I can able to eat cinnamon buns whenever I crave for it.

Skin care products

2012-05-16T10:03:00.000+02:00

We love using sea salt whenever we cook but I never thought that sea salt can be good for skin.I was browsing for some skin care products and I was surprised to see some with sea salt as one of the main ingredients.When I told my husband,at first he couldn't believe that it can be used to smooth skin not until when I showed him some of the products on the net that contain sea salt.Maybe we will try using it especially that I have a dry skin.

Love for pets

2012-05-08T17:46:00.004+02:00

I admire how my sister in law loves her pets.She really takes good care of them.I think with all the things she did for them,I am sure she already spent a lot.She pampers them like buying some pet clothes,pay for their grooming,buying nice dog food and giving them a nice bed for pet.

The last time we saw her she brought her 2 cutie dogs again.They are so cutie with their hair clips.They are so well groomed dogs.My son loves her dogs,he couldn't stop caressing them :) My son loves animals,he even wanted to have a dog at home.

It's more fun in the Philippines! Davao region

2012-05-03T21:50:00.002+02:00

It's more fun in the Philippines is the new tourism slogan in our country.Philippines is indeed a beautiful archipelago country with lots of beautiful islands to boast for.We have extra stunning beaches,rich cultures and traditions and great food to be proud of.I hope many tourists will visit the Philippines.I am sure they gonna have fun and enjoy their vacation.

I am just so proud of my region.Davao has many interesting and beautiful places to visit which the video below shows.It's really more fun in the Philippines especially in Davao region :)

Backyard playground equipment

2012-05-03T00:15:00.002+02:00

Finally we cleaned our yard yesterday.The grasses were so tall and became big that we had a hard time taking it out.And also our son kept bugging us on when he can play outside.Whenever the weather is nice and warm ,he likes to slide,swing and climb the rope.So when we were done,our son went straight to our backyard playground equipment.I know,it's been a while that he haven't use it.He really misses it a lot that he stayed and played there for hours :)

We are very happy and satisfied that we bought him a playground equipment.Can't wait to see our youngest to play with his older brother.I am sure it's gonna be fun seeing the two of them playing around.

Garden Gnome

2012-04-23T22:00:00.003+02:00

Since the beginning of April,stores are selling flowers to plant,pots,garden tools and some other garden stuffs.Whenever we go to the stores I always see the beautiful roses.Eventhough we already have different kinds of roses at home I still asked my husband to buy some again.So we bought 5 different roses and some other flowers.

As what I have written in my previous post,we started cleaning our front and back yard.I wanted to put a garden gnome to add beauty in my garden.I read that it brings luck and protects the plants.I hope it's true so that the roses and jacinths flowers we planted will be healthy.

Evian Baby Dance

2012-04-18T21:29:00.006+02:00

I like all the Evian baby tv commercials especially the baby dance.It's so cool watching cute babies do unusual things like dancing,swimming,doing break dance,roller skating to name a few.I know it's not true but they did a very good job in doing the commercial.If only it's true and babies can do all those things lol :)

This is one of the Evian baby dance tv commercials I saw on Youtube.It's Black Eyed Peas Pump It version.It's really cool and funny!

Ready to put our outdoor furniture

2012-04-15T22:10:00.007+02:00

Just like what I have said in my other post,normally if the weather starts to get warmer we usually put our outdoor furniture in our terrace.We like to eat outside especially that we have a breathtaking panoramic view of our city.

Many stores here in our place are now selling different types of outdoor furnitures.One of those furnitures that I like is the rustic outdoor furniture set.Having it at home is like having a picnic in the park.

I hope next week we gonna put our outdoor furniture in our terrace.I miss eating outside.

Love for music

2012-04-15T21:53:00.000+02:00

The tv program that I watched yesterday featured a musician.His passion for music and his life being an artist.He really loves music and it shows through the instruments and audio devices that he has at his home.I am wondering if he is using Atlas Sound products.He really invested a lot just to improve his craft.He said that he has to save for him to be able to buy all those instruments and devices.Good thing that his family supports him all the way and help him to achieve his dream to become a musician.

Forest Hill Resort Davao City

2012-04-15T17:58:00.003+02:00

It's summer now in the Philippines.Many people are going to the beach,park,resort and some other places that they can do some activities.Since we live near the beach,it's very accessible for them,they can go whenever they want.In fact,they were there last week.

My family asked me if they can go to the new resort in Davao City called Forest Hill Resort.They said that it's very affordable coz it's only 60 pesos for the entrance fee which includes already the cottage and use of swimming pools.I said yes and they will go this coming May before their classes start.They are so excited now!

By the way,Forest Hill is in Matina Balusong Diversion Road,Davao City.

How to boost energy and testosterone

2012-04-15T16:40:00.004+02:00

I was reading a forum the other night and was interested to the one of the topics.The men were talking about how to boost their energy and testosterone.I really don't have any idea about testosterone and how it can help to increase energy.Obviously,I am not a man,so I searched on the net and happened to find the site http://www.testosteroneboosters.org/testoripped/.

After reading it,I have now an idea of what those men were talking about.I read that some of them are doing body building and maintaining big muscles.I remember,my male cousin wanted to try body building and was also mentioned about boosting testosterone.

Coin collection

2012-04-01T15:03:00.002+02:00

When we attended my sister in law's birthday celebration,we stayed at my brother in law's place.As what I have written here before,my husband's sister and brother both collect different coins.When we were there,he showed us his new added coin collection.He told us that he was thinking of having some custom made coins.Just like my husband's sister,he also bought some of the coins.Both of them spent moolahs just to have the coins they wanted.

Both of them are old now but they still continue collecting coins from different countries,old coins and some other kinds of coins.They are happy doing it and the satisfaction they got is priceless.

Beautiful decorated food

2012-04-01T14:15:00.007+02:00

We attended the birthday celebration of my sister in law.Almost all the family and relatives of my husband attended the special occasion.My husband was so happy coz he was able to see all his family.

Anyway,the food was great.I was delighted by the beautiful decorated food on the long table.Most of them were cold cuts,salads and the sumptuous medium rare steaks.Hmmmm,just by thinking of those food makes me salivate,I am drooling it now :)

Physical fitness

2012-03-30T23:10:00.003+02:00

When I told my friend that I am gaining weight again,she suggested that I should go to the gym.She told me that at home I might not be motivated enough to go through again the dieting and exercise.

If only I live closer to her I might enroll the same fitness program she is doing now.She has a great mentor with personal trainer certification.No wonder why she is now well fit.She said that her personal trainer motivates her to lose weight.With all the exercise fitness programs,it really improves her physical fitness.

Love for guitar music

2012-03-22T21:18:00.002+01:00

My husband loves to listen guitar music especially Jimmy Hendrix's piece.Oh lalala,everytime he plays that kind of music,I have to cover my ears coz he puts the volume at the highest.With so much love for it,he bought an electric guitar.If only he had a choice,he would love to own a Vox guitar since it's known for good quality.

Everytime he plays different guitar music on his computer,I always tell him that he should accompany it with his electric guitar.I want him to play it coz it's been so long since the last time he used his guitar.

Excited for the new season of Pekin Express!

2012-03-22T20:41:00.003+01:00

Yes,I am really excited for the new season of Pekin Express,the french version of Amazing Race.It's because my country Philippines is one of the countries they have visited.I am sure it's gonna be a wonderful experience for them coz my country (the people) is known for being so hospitable.

Pekin Express is different from The Amazing Race.In Pekin Express,each person has only 1 euro per day for their food.Also,they can't pay for their transportations.Also they have the chance to interactith the locals coz at the end of the day,they have to search for a place to sleep.

Making compost at home

2012-03-15T15:17:00.008+01:00

It's been days now that we have a nice weather.My husband started cleaning our yard.Today,he cuts the bushes.Trimming some of the roses and other branches of flowers.Me,I help him gather all the leaves and branches in one place.I noticed at the back of our house,there were leaves that are now decomposed.It will be a good fertilizer for our mini garden.

I really wanted to have one of those compost tumblers.We could have put all the fruit rinds,leafy vegetables and leaves to a bin instead of throwing it to the garbage.

We really have to start making compost at home.It will surely make our soil very healthy.

Wanted to become a nurse

2012-03-15T14:36:00.002+01:00

A cousin of mine wanted to become a nurse.It's her ambition eversince she was young.I told her that there are many nurses already in our country but she is still so persistent to take the course.Me too,I wanted to become a nurse before but didn't push it through coz we didn't have enough money to put me in a nursing school.

On the other hand,some of my classmates before are nurse in abroad and they are doing good.I saw some of there photos in their nurses uniforms while on work in the hospital.Though their responsibilities are big and sometimes very demanding,they are very happy.They have nice lives and they have big salaries.

New buffet restaurants in Davao City

2012-03-05T19:55:00.003+01:00

I love eating in buffet restaurants.Not only that there are many choices but I can eat as much I can :)Whenever we are in Davao,I always take advantage the opportunity to eat at those eat all you can restaurants.

My sister told me that there are many new buffet restaurants now in Davao City.The Zab buffet,Wild Safari Grill,Ranch and Reef and K steak Unlimited to name a few.

I drool and salivating everytime I look at the food photos of buffet restaurants.I will surely visit those places when we go back to Davao next year.

Do you like Hello Kitty?

2012-03-04T10:39:00.004+01:00

Do you like hello kitty stuffs?? Me,I do and I love it! I remember when I was young,my bag and my other school stuffs are some hello kitty designs.I guess little girls or even grown up ladies love it :)

I remember my high school classmates before used to collect hello kitty stuffs.Almost all the things she used were hello kitty.Even now that she has already a family,she continue collecting it.She said that her daughter will have all the stuffs later :) She even dream to go to Japan to visit the Hello Kitty theme park.

Me too,if given the chance I will love to go to that theme park in Japan.Though I am already grown up,I am still kid at heart :)

I feel so bloated :(

2012-03-04T10:23:00.003+01:00

Last year I was able to lose weight for about 6-7 kilos.I was on diet,was careful of what I ate and I moved a lot.But this year I gain a lot of weight again,it started last christmas and new year.I ate and ate just like there's no more tomorrow.Now I feel so bloated :(

I might take 7-dfbx diet pill if I couldn't lose weight naturally.I was already alarmed when I bought some clothes last sale period.My size last year was around 38-40 but now it's 42-44 :( I really have to do something or else I will continue to get big again.

We ate raclette

2012-02-25T19:53:00.012+01:00

We love eating raclette at home especially during cold times.Winter is the perfect time to eat raclette.My son who loves eating cheese and charcuterie( cold cuts) really like this food.It's just that it takes time to eat coz we still have to melt the cheese and also heat the charcuterie and eggs.

Professional certification

2012-02-19T20:51:00.004+01:00

I was talking to my friend the other day.She said that she wanted to go back to school.Yet,she still couldn't decide which course she will take.She wanted to be a puericultrice (the one who takes care of the babies or children) or an aide soignante ( a nursing aide).I told her that since she likes kids,it's better if she takes the puericultrice formation.I also advised her that if ever she take the formation and finish it,she should get a certification.

There are Online certificate programs now that will help professionals to certified their skills or jobs.Professional certification is a must if the person wants to show his expertise or skills especially if looking for a job or aiming a promotion.
