We notice how Olin loves to doodle, she often asks for a paper and pen or colors and she wouldn’t stop whining until you give her the things she’s asking. So I make it a point to keep everything handy that wehenver she asks for it we can give it to her fast. And yes, we already opened her triangular crayola’s she got last Christmas, and she is enjoying it so much! and the fact that its washable makes me feel at ease too!

Anyways, while she was busy with something else the other day, I did some snapping of her doodle stuff, nevermind the drawings, it was by me The little one bugged me to draw her “haws and tee” (house and tree)

Aside from the online gaming that are becoming a fast hit among the youngsters nowadays, there are of course those who love the casino like atmosphere gaming zones, right at the comfort of ones home. You see, there are these people who prefer to play in silence, alone. Unlike in the casino pubs with live dealers and co players, sometimes the strategy is loosen out if there are so many people in the surrounding. Compare to do it yourself, alone you play kind of thing casino right in your computer. Plus you get to pay it using your credit card! No need for counting or whatever of bills and chips.
You see, getting hook with online gaming is very easy for most people, all you need to have is a credit card for you to buy tokens for the game itself. that is why more and more people are attracted to get the game rolling right at the comfort of your own home. i mean, gamers wouldn’t have to get out of their house and go to the nearest casino just to play, plus you get to choose what time you’ll be playing and stop. but one suggested that those who are interested into online gaming must be at least familiar with the rules and regulations and other matters related to online casinos game, thus getting a doze of online casino rules and reviews from websites is suggested before facing the game. you need to be geared up for the battle

I envy those who are in the states that are actually preparing or using their Hole in the Wall Fires or fireplaces and heaters now. You see, winter season is approaching them already and we are here still in heat with our humid weather. And with that, more and more introductory offers of different brands of Gas Fires or Electric Fires are being offered in the market. I even heard one of my friend ranting about a certain fireplace company of being so rude and pushy. They even called her at her office asking her to order as early as now, but you see, my friend already have an old but still running electric fire place, so no need for a new one as of this writing. Although she actually feels sorry for the sales agent because she knows that the man is only looking for a sale, but then again, if it is not the right time and the customer said no, just stop. So no argument and no bad mouthing can be heard against the company. Well that is why hotprice.co.uk is known to be the most in demand fire place selling company for the good reputation it has in the line of this kind of business. This is what most costumers are actually looking for in a certain company, the good name that the good service comes along with. Something this company has.

This is what I like!

As posted here and here, we had the nicest full moon for two straight days and I was lucky enough (for the second time) to capture the big Mr. Moon last night.. I was able to use my other lens too! I didn’t have a hard time snapping this time because we had a clear cloudless sky! but it was really freakin’ cold outside I had to run back and forth inside and outside the house. I had a very nice time capturing the moon together with my awed daugther, she keeps on saying “hello Moon!!!” “bye moon” which we find really really cute! I guess she also has a thing for nature sight seeing

As I posted here, the biggest full moon of the year were seen last two nights ago… Anyways, when I learned about it we were at my parent’s house and my slr are at our place, so I had to ask the husband to bring the camera before night time… but unfortunately, he arrived late! the moon were already at its highest and clouds were already covering the main attraction.. but I still waited and was able to capture some snaps… Also, the husband forgot to bring my other lens so I was left with the 18-70mm lens.

One of my self indulgence is going to the spa and having a day full of pampering, but this thing comes only if we have enough money to spare for this luxurious things… but since there are a lot of products in the market today that offers the feeling of spa and relaxation at the comfort of one’s home, I am one of the money who actually tries on different products! You see, I have this thing for salt scrubs and cleansers, the softness feeling on my skin makes me giddy happy afterwards, and let me share with you one of my most loved salt scrub product that actually was first given to me by cousin who works in a cruise ship based in Europe… so technically, this is a European brand.. it’s called ELEMIS

ELEMIS Exotic Lime and Ginger Salt Glow

it is said to:

• exfoliates and remineralises the skin
• prevents ingrown skin after waxing
• effective on skin’s rough spots like knees, elbows and feet
• removes dead skin cells and deep cleanses while stimulating the skin
• Improves skin absorption

And let me just tell you, this is one good product I truly reco!

I was able to buy a very nice watch from a friend before Christmas at a very discounted price, which my mom receives on Christmas eve She super liked it! And asked me immedietely where did I bought it because she used to have the same brand of watch some time ago but was lost or misplaced when we were transfering to our house. Anyways, speaking of watches, we are in fact a family who loves wrist watches. My sister who is a true blooded fashion lover collects variety of Watch Bands in different colors and designs. Lately she has been bugging me to order for her online another set of straps for her watches from WatchStyle.com a site that sells out different type of watch bracelets  from hard core serious to trendy and colorful styles such as the photos below. Actually, those were the choices of my sister, you see, she has this thing for color coordinated get up, that she wants as much as possible her clothes down to her littlest accesories to be color coordinated - somehing that I can’t come up with. So there, if you too like this fashion straps, you can visit their site and see it for yourself too. They have tons of different styles and colors to choose from, from leather to metals too!

And so I already got these cheapy items from a nearby party kiosk yesterday, some are from TK actually, but I noticed that Dora themed ones are so limited that is why I still had to opt for other items, well It’s really ok because it’s just a party-party-han after all. No fuss or anything if not everything are uniformly themed. I’m also done with the cake ordering, DH will just have to pick it up on the 25th after lunch time. So next to do are list down some of the merienda foods my mom and I will prepare for our more or less 10 relatives guests (mostly kids!)

This will be my last post for today. I wish. You see, my brain is already freaking fried! But I can’t complain, the grasya might go out my way… So let me refresh what I said, I’m purely overwhelmed! It’s a minute before the clock strikes twelve, and I am still here blabbing my brain out with a lot of stuff! Good thing the husband decided to accompany me here, he’s watching a travel show right now and he gave me another hour to finish everything that is nearing the deadline! So there, I’m basically cramming. I need fillers!!!! waaaa!

This is my Lens wish before February A Nikon 50mm f/1.8 D AF Lens — although what I need is an AF-S something that will fit my camera.

Watching the evening news right now and I can’t help but feel sad with all the negative news that they feature, can’t the news team find positive and encouraging news to feature?! Are we all leading to a doomed world now?! More and more companies are declaring bankruptcy and a lot of employees are being laid off every now and then. Sad but true, economic situation of almost every country are struggling big time nowadays, that is why while some others says that there are still hope for those who are keeping their faith to their businesses, it is better to get themselves into stock options trading, that is when this iron condor comes in. This system promises returns in huge amount in no time, given their proven ways to help companies and individuals by using their resources into stocks and waiting for the right time to get your investment back with proportioned income that you were able to earned! Great way to still keep moving right?
