Gotcha

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Thu, 13 Mar 2014 22:40:00 +0000

Gotcha!!! I finally found this lovely violin case at guitar center and I am so happy. I spent my entire afternoon searching for one and the one's I love are very pricey for me. Hahahha good thing I didn't surrender coz I wasn't far from doing it. It took me like less than 30 minutes to shop online lolz. So fast right? I, myself, still couldn't believe it. Well, let's see how the service goes and the quality. Well keep you updated folks for the review. For the mean time, gotta sleep now coz I'll have a very, very long day and night tomorrow. Need to save some energy. Good night.

A Complete Disaster

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Fri, 14 Feb 2014 09:40:00 +0000

My kitchen is a big disaster and I need a very good selection of pull out shelves. Mostly are my baking utensils for my business. I found nothing in Ikea so I guess, I'll end up purchasing something online coz I really need it badly and it's urgent huhuhuhu. Anyway, happy valentine's day everyone!!

All Packed In

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Tue, 28 Jan 2014 17:39:00 +0000

Yes and I'm ready for my Barcelona trip tomorrow. Nervous and excited for this very first trip of mine alone. Suitcase, gadgets and papers are all ready. Believe it or not, I will be there until sunday online but it looks like I'm staying there for a week lolz. Hubby was like "Wow! Are you sure you'll be bringing all those stuffs?" hehehe. Woman will always be a woman, agree? I'll be touring around of course thursday and friday during the day with my roommate and shows in the evening. Saturday and sunday will be an entire workshop for me then airport directly by sunday night. You may find me funny but I'll even have it with me the usb audio interface at musicians friend. I just wanna make sure that I've got everything :-). As they've said, make sure you've got everything before going to a war. Agree?

She Is

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Tue, 28 Jan 2014 17:31:00 +0000

Any musicians out there searching for an exciting ezdrummer at an affordable price? A friend got hers at an online store that she just discovered a week ago. I went to her house this afternoon and I, myself, felt inlove with this EZ drummer software. I'm not a musician myself and I'm not a fan of music instruments as well but I saw her doing the stuffs, I was like WOW! Yeah, this is the friend that I said who has helped me a lot in editing my music for my class as well as my videos. She's not an artist but when she's into something, she really takes it seriously. I am just so blessed that I'm surrounded with good, wonderful and generous people :-).

Tic Tac Tic Tac

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Mon, 27 Jan 2014 16:47:00 +0000

Will be going to Barcelona alone this coming wednesday for the big bellydance festival by Munique Neith. Nervous but excited. It will be my very first time to travel abroad without hubby. Tickets, hotel reservations and everything are ready. Even my suitcase is ready too. I'll be arriving in Barcelona Wednesday night and my roommate will be arriving thursday lunch. Our common plans? Visit the different tourists spots for 1 1/2 day :-). Saturday and sunday will be a whole day workshop for me and she'll be going back to Ukraine sunday morning. I don't speak spanish and I'm wishing that majority of the people in Barcelona understand and speak english :-). I have my map with me also and started studying my iterinaries just incase nobody would be able to help me. This new adventure is going to be exciting and I can't wait to meet for real these ladies I met via Facebook. Yes, facebook on the other hand has it's advantage. I prefer new adventures and this sounds just so much fun. But before that, I have to make sure that my boys here at home will have something to eat and hubby and I will be going to an opthalmo. We need eyeglasses with stainless frames especially hubby, himself.

Christmas, You're So Near

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Wed, 18 Dec 2013 17:32:00 +0000

Yesssss... and I'm so excited! Actually, everybody is excited, right? I love it here in Bordeaux when cold season comes in. Different atmosphere and ambiance around especially for the upcoming holiday season. My favorite is at night. Yes it's cold but there's something special about it really that I can't describe. Picture below is the Regent Hotel and just infront of it is the Grand Theatre where Bourgeois people go. Many animations of course during the weekend but I find it so crowdy and noisy during the day and too difficult to park as well. Last weekend, I had the courage to go out to shop something and I was surprised to see an american young guy who played so well with his instrument. Seriously, he was the eye-catcher of the day. People were watching him and applauded him a lot.

Well, if one day you go here in France, don't forget to add Bordeaux in your list. You'll never regret it. Have a wonderful evening everyone. I'm off for new gold tube at musicians friend. This is kinda urgent.

My Boys

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Wed, 18 Dec 2013 17:21:00 +0000

They get along so well together and they are so cute together. Everybody tells me that my son is really the mini version of hubby :-). Aren't they cute together? Seriously, I'm thankful for the family that I have. I'm thankful for having a wonderful husband like mine coz we communicate all the time no matter what will be the subject. We talk and talk and we agree on same thing when it comes to the discipline subject. I'd say that we're strict and cool parents at the same time. I am honestly proud on how we raised our son. He's very young still but he talks to us everyday like how his day was, about his friends, what he did right after school and if something bothers him. Right from the very start, we always tell him that he is absolutely free to tell us anything. Being a parent is quite difficult. I couldn't say that we're the best parents in this world but we are doing are very best to be the best one for our son and for our future children. He knows what I do in life, what I do for a living as well as with hubby, where we work and etc. Right at this very moment, he's even with me at a couch cushion asking me so many questions while writing this post.

Contact Me For This

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Sat, 30 Nov 2013 08:48:00 +0000

Will somebody please tell me if you guys know a store where I could find used Acoustic Guitars? I'd like to buy one for my brother as he does a very good job at school. I can't afford to buy a new onebut I'm looking for an acoustic guitar that functions well still. My brother wishes to have one for a very long time and as I have some extra money and since Christmas will be around the corner soon, so, this will be the perfect time to give him this. Or just incase you own one and you wanna sell it, think of me please ;-).

It's thursday and my 1 week vacation starts now. Oh how good it feels to simply wake up late in the morning, enjoy my breaky and my coffee of course :-). These are some of the things that I'm thankful for aside from the wonderful family I have and 2 handsome boys. I couldn't ask for more. Though it's cold here but nature itself has something else to offer. Automn is beautiful too even if cold. My son loves it and he explains things to me that he acquired from school. He grows so fast and he's turning 4 years old next weekend. My life is so smooth and I'm at the point in my life that I don't ask for anything else except for good health for the entire family. I wish time will come that all my family will gather and we will all go for a vacation. That's one of the biggest wish I have. Hopefully one day I'll be able to have lowboy trailer and caravane and just have a road trip.

Memories, Memories, Memories

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Sun, 03 Nov 2013 20:09:00 +0000

I would say that I had and enjoyed my highschool and college days. I always reminisce all those crazy moments I had: good and the bad ones. I miss those days, the bonding time I had with my friends, cutting classes just to watch a film either ayala or sm or simply go to the beach with the boys lolz. Haaay, I wish to see all of them once again. We're always trying to have our reunion but same thing, mostly are not available and several of our group are now living outside PI. I still have my class ring. I don't wear it anymore but everyone I see it, it makes me immediately smile. Memories, memories, memories. No regrets at all. For my friends and readers out there, do you still wear it? In my own opinion, really a good idea to have one before leaving the school. Although you're not really obliged to get one for yourself but it's one of the souvenirs you'll have. You may suggest someone to get your class rings here just incase they don't know where to get it. As far as I know, big discounts will be given if you guys order it by volume.

Days Off

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Wed, 23 Oct 2013 13:02:00 +0000

I have 2 days day off then no work again for me for the weekend. Isn't that wonderful? I love it! I worked overtime these past few weeks coz my work needed me badly. I accepted it of course without any hesitation :-). Well, day off for me is simply a day for my 2 boys (hubby & son). We woke up late this morning (it's my son's vacation at the moment so no school and hubby is on sick leave) and just watched a movie at the living room right after. Simple things that binds us together then we spent our time for our son. I guess I am at the point of my life now where I only enjoy stuffs. I don't ask nor seek that I should be going somewhere for a short vacation and shopping and etc., at this moment, I prefer to spend quality time with my family and people that matters to me. We prefer to simply eat somewhere and just enjoy the time we have and the availability of everyone. Hubby even asked me what I want for our wedding anniversary next month. My answer, nothing because I already have everything that I want and dreamt of for a long time. Does it mean that I'm now boring? Hahahaha sometimes I do ask myself that question. That's what they call maturity but I'm not menopausal hein?

Gotta go people to accompany someone for seagull entourage rustic cw qit acoustic-electric guitar rustic later this afternoon.

Heirarchy

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Mon, 16 Sep 2013 11:50:00 +0000

If there's one thing that I hate the most at work, that will be someone underestimating his/her colleagues. I still couldn't understand why some people can't accept the fact that there's hierarchy in everywhere we go and why not simply face it. For me, this is one of the many reasons why there are conflicts at work. One stabs one's back once he or she isn't around and vice versa. Plastic no? I am absolutely not like that and I prefer to be direct to someone if something bothers me. I know, they don't work, act and behave like me but it's just so disgusting. Unhealthy at work if I shall consider. As for me, I always say "je m'en fiche" or I don't care. As long as I'm working right and they pay me right, then the people around me aren't important. My relationship at work is good but it's just that some colleagues are not appropriate at all especially to their OJTs. Anyway, see you later folks and and gotta buy needed stand offs now.

A Gift I'll Treasure The Most

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Mon, 02 Sep 2013 22:02:00 +0000

I was searching for something in my cabinets and found a silver dollar that my kababata gave me when we were young. I guess, I got it during our elementary days. When I saw it, I immediately got teary-eyed. Who would have thought that after all these years, we remain good friends still despite of the separation afterwards (we both moved in different areas and had different lives and friends). We had our ups and downs, we fought lolz and etc. but the positive vibes rested until now. I'm happy that we found each other via Facebook and we keep in touch via social media and viber. I'm very happy for her also coz she's getting married this year. She sent me an invitation. I've known her since I was a kid so we really knew and know eachother. I would love to see her walking down the aisle and I guess, she'll be the prettiest spanish and disney princess I know. Yeah, we were dreaming of becoming a princess when we where 7 and all we did was sing and sing sing. I miss you suging.

Productive Thursday

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Thu, 27 Jun 2013 19:19:00 +0000

Mostly of the people who really know me always tell me that I'm ambitious and I really know what I want in life. Everything is being planned and I strictly follow my agenda as possible as I could. Early this morning till afternoon was my 2nd day on-the-job training. Pastries and viennoiserie cooking process was better but lack of organization still at my side. I also did the cashier work at the same time and service of the client. I'm learning new things and seriously, 7 hours work standing is all worth it. As for me, yes, because I love it and it has something to do with my cupcake business. Hubby was kidding and said that he'll get me a new pedaltrain at guitar center after my training lolz. He's only joking and hubby really knows how to put a smile on my face especially when I needed it.

How I Miss It

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Sun, 23 Jun 2013 18:09:00 +0000

I am in the music mode tonight. Makes me feel good after having a tiring week and day. I feel reconnected to our house and how I miss every corners of the house and music. We're not aloud to listen to any music while at the kitchen. No idea why but well, rules are rules and we have to respect that. I'll go out for a concert this week with my ladyfriends and I can't wait for that. After that, I'll enroll my son also at the music school for his summer class. I'm eyeing a pbone for him. For the mean time, I'll have to observe which instrument interests him the most. On the job training starts this wednesday early in the morning and I'm very excited.

Friday 5 for June 7: In Retrospect

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Fri, 07 Jun 2013 13:41:00 +0000

What seemed like a good fashion choice once upon a time but now seems kind of dumb? = Elvis Presley's time.
If you knew then what you know now, what might you not have put in your mouth? = that I was accussing someone for thing and yet, it wasn't her fault
Now that he or she has been a great friend for a while, your initial uncertainty about whom seems silly? = not really. you're saying for a while so that would mean for me "unsure" yet
Somebody should have warned you never to go where? = not to walk alone by myself at night everywhere coz it's dangerous for a lady
Who now seems to have been right whenever you were wrong? = hubby. as usual, i'm hard headed. last thing was about Web To Print. He was telling me something and because I found him noisy, I screamed and just said shut up and continue my thing. Just this morning, I realized that hubby always has a reason but I'm not willing to listen.

Cigars Anyone?

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Sun, 02 Jun 2013 16:12:00 +0000

Anybody here loves acid cigars? If yes, give me a sign coz I'm really to give it to you or to anyone of you here. Somebody gave us acid cigar sampler and because we couldn't say no, we accepted it. Hubby doesn't smoke cigar so instead of keeping it here, I prefer to dispatch it to someone who would enjoy it instead of being rotten here in our cabinet. Yes, it's free so don't worry. I'm not going to ask you for a shipping fee also. It's free 100%. I don't smoke also. I like how cigar smells but I don't have the courage to smoke or even try it just once. My ladyfriends do it but I don't really care. I mean, it's a choice and I prefer to have a healthy lifestyle.

Real People Are Hard To Find

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Tue, 07 May 2013 10:07:00 +0000

I only have few people around me but I would say that these people are always there for me and never left me when I needed someone to talk to. Chismosas and jealous people exist too here in France. There are racist and everything just like anywhere else but sure thing, filipinos rise and are always the best above all. In my case, I'm just happy that I finally found the answers. True people are few and are worth fighting for. I don't need these assholes full of jealousy and all they do in their lives is to backfight anyone. I'll leave them that and I don't need that in my life. Well, if they're reading this,... I'm definitely happy where I am right now and I'm full of smiles so AU REVOIR. True that I feel like quitting sometimes coz of these stupid people but my real friends were, are and will always be there for me. Only them push me and encourage me to go forward without thinking of anybody else. We fought sometimes, we argued on several subjects but at the end of the day, we apologize and become friends once again or even become sisters. True people are always there for you, through thich and thin and no matter what. If you gave these people, never let them go coz they're the only one's where you'll find peace.

Enough of my drama now :-), will now open cigar auctions for hubby.

Knobs Update

noreply@blogger.com (Francine Ann) — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 23:41:00 +0000

Knobs? I'll suggest that you get your knobs from reidsupply.com. Not because this is where I shop but because, the service is really good. I mean, my items always arrive time and are packed well. Aside from that, their people are very helpful, patient and so kind every single time I need their help or advice on a specific thing. Frankly speaking, very happy with my orders and I keep on coming back at this store. Really recommend you guys this place.
