> Renovating…

We are thinking of renovating… I know, I know… We have only been staying in the house for 1.5 years, but we have been toying with the idea of rebuilding the garden and make a patio out… I saw some very nice photos with outdoor patio cushions, but I don’t know if it’s practical or [...]

> Choice of clothes…

Since young, I always eyed clothes that aren’t suitable for my body shape… I remember a time when I wanted to wear hip hop clothes but just wouldn’t look nice in any of them… In fact it did not flatter me, but accentuated all the wrong parts of the body, making me look hideous… Sadly, [...]

> Getting ‘certified’…

I have a cousin that was recently researching on availability of upgrading herself from a RN to BSN Online program, as it was her dream to obtain a bachelor degree and help herself grow in the line she love so much… Nursing was something she has always hoped to be since she was young, but [...]

> Money outgoing…

It’s the time of the year again, where we had to calculate our taxes, which also coincide with our term life insurance payment… Every year, I feel extremely poor around this time, seeing all the money that we save up through the months go out into paying all of this, and then seeing the account [...]

> Initial plan…

We initially plan a vacation, to rent a RV and just travel around on road… If that plan worked out, we would have needed good sam roadside assistance, which is a must get, as it would be of big help when we would need one… But that will probably have to wait for quite some [...]

> Staying healthy…

I have a colleague that has suddenly started to eat healthy, counting his calorie intakes and picking and choosing his food, always trying to decide on the better choice of food… It all started with him trying to lose some weight, but has now gotten a little overboard (to what we think) as he’s skipping [...]

> Trying to lose weight…

I saw an advertisement the other day, about some diet pills for sale, and was so tempted… After reading through and finding out more about it, I had to keep reminding myself that nothing comes so easily, and that I have wasted quite a bit of money trying to find the easy way of losing [...]

> Peeling skin…

Hubby’s skin on his cheeks are drying and peeling off, even the best day cream wouldn’t be able to do much help… I don’t know what is wrong, maybe the weather, but his scratching it none stop doesn’t help, as it made them scaly and peels even more… I’ve tried getting him different facial wash, [...]

Motherhood…

Posted on April 8, 2010 - Filed Under Family | Leave a Comment

I still find myself at awe sometimes, trying to let the fact that ‘I’m a mother of 2, eldest being 4 years old’ sink in… Imagine, that little kiddo there, that’s MY daughter! How did I even achieve that? Motherhood comes with lotsa sacrifices and lotsa worries, but I have no regrets on getting on [...]
