This was taken during her Tita-Ninang (Aunt-Godmother)'s wedding :) Pardon its quality, I was just using a vga camera and it was so hard that time to get a shot of her smiling. That explains the background :)

Manic Monday #3

Here's my entry for this week:

What is the longest time you've gone with your Internet not working in your home? hmm prolly just a day or two because hubby couldn't stand a day without an internet connection. But that is if our computer is working because right now, we do have internet connection at home but our computer is in vacation mode (read:broken) heheh

How many email addresses do you regularly use? exclusive of my work's email address, I got 3 :)

Are you able to access the Internet on your phone? If so, how frequently do you use it? yup, using it if wireless connection is free for me to use :)

My First Bet Got Eliminated!

Sorry for the late updates hehe She was actually booted out during the 3rd episode. Oh by the way, I am talking of America's Next Top Model.

She was the first one who got eliminated. Actually, she wasn't included on the final 14 but since the original finalist was unable to join they got her back. But she didn't do well on the first photo shoot so they sent them home first.

The second to leave was Rachel, who was booted out at the middle of the 3rd episode during their activity.

Here's my bet, who got eliminated during the same episode as Rachel's. She was irritated by her boots that they wanted her to put on during the shoot. Because of that her mood was affected and her photos didn't look well.

Lulu was the recent one who got eliminated.

Bianca sadly hahah is still on run. I don't have yet a new bet for the next top model but I find Erin pretty. But I still don't know if she will make it to top or if she has what it takes to be next America's Top Model. Can't wait for the next episode :)

"Ondoy" Made 25 Provinces Declared Under State of Calamity

Sunday, September 27, 2009

Gosh Typhoon Ondoy made this provinces (Aurora, Quirino, Nueva Vizcaya, Nueva Ecija, Pangasinan, Tarlac, Zambales, Pampanga, Bulacan, Rizal, Quezon, Isabela, Mountain Province, Ifugao, Benguet, La Union, Ilocos Sur, Laguna, Cavite, Batangas, Mindoro Oriental, Mindoro Occidental, Marinduque, Camarines Norte, and Bataan) under State of Calamity. Tsk! Tsk! There are lots of places now that are flooded. Cainta for instance, according to the news is already almost 100% submerged in water :( I lived before at Cainta and I still have some of my relatives there and according to the sms messages I got from them the water is now up to their chest. Thanks God they have 2nd floor, they have a place to stay because a lot of residents there were already staying on their rooftop :( and some were evacuated already. And if we are still living there, we have already joined my aunt because our old house that's beside my aunt's is just a bungalow type. Now I am wondering on some of the things we have left in our old place, those were most likely swimming already in the water :(

As I'm writing this, its not raining anymore here on our place and I hope on most places too. I just hope and pray that my relatives and friends are safe.

Message From God via Facebook

This is one of the application I like from Facebook, the messages from God and here's what He has for me today:

... that you've been driving yourself too hard lately. Sure, there is time to invest yourself fully into work, but there is equally important time ...for joyful resting. And for you, this time is now. What is the absolutely most wonderful little treat you can give yourself? Do it today.

Check this application on Facebook if you also wanna know what is God's message for you today.

Thinking.. thinking.. Any Suggestion?

Saturday, September 26, 2009

There are lots of things going on my mind now. One is I still haven't started reviewing yet when my exam is just about less than 3 weeks. How I wish my procrastination mode will end up soon!

Aside from that, I am thinking if I have made a correct decision of separating my sales alerts from my personal blog. I have come up with that idea because and I think a lot of you know that last week, I have lost my access to my blog. And that made me create a new one, Up Now and What's Next, so to keep that too I decided to remove my sales, promo, events etc alerts to that. Now I am maintaining two blogs and I am worried if I got my visitors divided now :(

And now, I am also thinking of modifying my LO. Not really a major modification, I will keep my 3-column setting and stuff, its just the background color of the main body that I am thinking about. Plus also the widgets on my sidebar. I wanted to unclutter it so it won't be so much pain in the eyes. So I guess I need some suggestions then :) Thanks in advance.

How I wish with all of that running in my mind, I could accomplish at least one before the end of this month. Wish me luck :)

Thursday Thunks #4

Thursday, September 24, 2009

Lather Up, Laugh It Up, And Have A Colorful Day!

1. Does soap or shampoo have to really lather up for you to feel that it cleaned throughly? hmmm I guess not. It's probably more for convenience sake, so you would enjoy and keep on using it.

2. Do you have a long standing joke with someone that you still laugh about every time you talk to that person? hahah yup!

3. Share something that happened to you this past week that was unusual. My blog was deactivated. Well for me that's unusual because they have falsely identified it as a spam blog. Good thing, it is up and running again.

4. If you dropped a purple crayon and a green crayon off a roof, which would melt faster in the sun? Huh? It depends on which of the two is more exposed to Mr Sun.

5. You are standing in line (grocery store, bank, etc.), and someone gets in line behind you that stinks. The stink is so bad that people in line in front of you turn around and look to see if you are the one causing the stink. Do you cover your nose, hold your breath, breathe through your mouth or just get out of line altogether? Definitely I'll hold my breath and breathe through my mouth. And honestly I will more likely turn my back as well to see where it coming from (defensive huh?! hehe)

6. If you dropped your cell phone in the toilet, would you fish it out? If so, how much soap would you use to wash your hands afterwards? It depends on which toilet haha if from a public restroom definitely no! But if ours maybe I can think of it hahah and if I'll do, I'll pour hot water on my hands hahaha

7. Sydney Australia dust storm (link). How long do you think it would take you to clean your house after that sort of dust storm? hmm a week maybe if i'll be doing it alone..

8. Do you think you can dance? Yes I was a dancer during my High School years :)

9. You are out to eat and someone across the room is staring at you. Do you get paranoid, try to ignore them, or go find out why they are staring at you? hmm if the person looks interesting too and he/she looks approachable maybe I'll approach him/her.. but if not, deadpan!

10. Come up with a crazy, wacky Thursday Thunk question. geessh my mind isn't functioning heheh I'll try to come up with one laterz heheh

Welcome to the World Khaleb Iñigo :)

Here's my new inaanak (godson), Khaleb Iñigo. The second child of Joy and Joe, good friends! You did a great job, Joy! Such a cutie! Hope to see you soon baby :) Muahugzz from Tito Chi, Tita Mian and Ate Maisie :)

Watermelon Shake

Since most of you guys got interested on one of my Give Me Five list this week, the Watermelon Shake, I am sharing the instructions on how to prepare that:

Photo Source: Patay Gutom

Things You'll Need:

A blender
Watermelon
Ice cubes
Sugar syrup
water

Here's how to prepare:

First, prepare the watermelon. Cut it into cubes. Remove seeds then put the cubes to the blender.
Then add the ice cubes followed by the sugar syrup. Make sure you have tasted the watermelon so you would know how sweet it is and how much sugar syrup you need to put in.
Pour a small amount of water to the blender. Just enough that you wouldn't turn it into juice :)
Now blend all the ingredients til all the ice cubes are already crushed.Taste it just to check if you need to add more syrup. Now it is ready for you to serve :)

Easy right? :) Enjoy it!

It's Nice to be Back!!

Tuesday, September 22, 2009

Yahooo! I am sooooo happy because at last my Life Can't Wait is now back online :) Thanks all for not removing my links on your blogs. Truly appreciate it! Now, I still got a lot of work to do, because I don't want to get rid of my Up Now and What's Next blog, so I will probably be moving all my sales alerts etc to my other blog keeping this one as my personal and my meme blog :) Please bear with me as I migrate some stuff from here to there and vise versa :) Expect me to be busy in the next few days but I will surely return the favor of everything you have done (visiting my site, linking back etc) just don't forget to drop me some love.

Laterz,

Procrastination No More

Thursday, September 17, 2009

Good luck to me :) I am still trying to convince myself not to procrastinate anymore because I am more than 6 months behind my target date to start studying. And with the 5 exams in line for me to take til the end of this year, I still haven't take any or even start reviewing for one not until today. I am still having a hard time convincing myself or setting my mood to "review mode ON" *sigh* I am such a crammer. How I wish I could make it on time :)
