Looking for a Friend?

Internet has been a gateway to those searching for love for the past 10 years. I’ve seen a lot of people meet online, become good friends and later fall in love. In fact, some of my close friends right now are people that I met either in a forum or chat room. I even met me last boyfriend through the Internet and our relationship lasted for about three years. It’s so easy to find someone in the Internet for the sole reason that you can totally re-invent yourself. You are more carefree, confident and less afraid of the rejection. So instead of judging each other based on first impressions, you talk freely about yourselves and become friends. When the time comes that you need to meet, all awkwardness is gone because you already developed a special connection.

If you want to try your luck in finding the right one through the Internet or just simple looking for a friend, FriendFinder is worth checking out. It is one of the leading personals network for dating, romance and fun. Membership is free and the signup process is very easy. There’s a quick search, which allows you to specify your preferences from gender to age to location. What’s cool is that each singles have their own blog where they post their daily thoughts and experiences. I just love reading other people’s journal because you can learn so much based on how they write and think.

I was young once too, but not this crazy!

It's so sad to see young celebrities waste their lives. There's so much in store for them that I can't find any reason why they need to get drunk or get high all the time. We've all read about how Lindsay Lohan wrecked her car while driving under the influence of alcohol. And don't let me start about Britney Spears. Her passing out in several bars and shaving her head bald, drawing a 666 on her forehead are just so degrading. To think that kids look up to them.

I read though, that these celebrities received addiction treatment and are behaving properly for the last couple of weeks. I hope it will last because they are so young and that they should enjoy their fame while they can.

Are you a control freak>

You Are 68% Control Freak

You are a pretty major control freak, though you may not know it. While your confidence is inspiring, your bossy ways tend to scare people off.

Are You A Control Freak?

Okay, so I'm a control freak. Shoot me! I want everything to be in order, even other people's lives especially if they are around me all the time, lol.

I just love these quizzes.

Dreams are my reality

Okay, I have a confession to make. I daydream, a lot. If we were talking and you see me nodding with a stoic face, it means that at the moment, I am dreaming of cars, appliances, travels and my favorite, beautiful houses. To feed my dreams, I have to supply myself with tons of visuals. I window shop, read magazines, watch commercials and of course, browse the Internet.

I found another real estate website today. Just for the fun of it, I tried their search to see if I can find the house of my dreams. To make it realistic, I looked for houses under $500,000. Not that I can afford that amount, but that's the lowest value that the search function offers.

So I found this.


With a kitchen like this:


And a living room like this:


"It has 5 Bedrooms & 4 baths on full basement with open kitchen, 2 story wall of windows, huge master w/ fire place & gigantic closet w/ island in middle."

Amazing isn't it? To think I was just dreaming of an LCD TV on my last post. Well, I did say it was just a dream house right?

Let me note that down on my wishlist.

Wish List

Saw this last Sunday at SM Makati.



The LCD TV is so slim! I can already picture it in our living room. Our soon-to-be condo is not that big so we need to do what we can to maximize the space.

We want it soooo bad. The price is just too much, Php60,000 for a TV set? We're not rich! But I so love it that it's starting to occupy my dreams. I hope the price will go down dramatically next year when we start buying appliances.

Taking Care of Your Skin

I cannot stress enough how important it is to take care of our skin. We need to do this not only for our husbands but to also make us (mommies and wives) feel good about ourselves. Skincare products are everywhere but not all of them are suitable for sensitive skin. It's always best to try out a product first before you plunge in and buy a whole set. The American Academy of Dermatologists states that preservatives such as parabens can cause irritation and have also been linked to breast cancer.


If you do have a sensitive skin, you can check out Arouge's line of facial skincare products. Arouge products are specifically designed for both dry and sensitive skin and only uses naturally extracted ingredients. Their products don’t have antibacterial ingredients, fragrances and solvents because these can dry and irritate your skin.

New Project

I need to design a web site and a logo for our new hosting web site.

This is the theme.

Sandy's Library

Here are some photos of my little bookworm.





And this, is her library.

There are more books scattered around the house because she wants to read wherever she is.

New Toys

Sandy doesn't want to play with her toys lately. She wants to use all my stuff, from laptop to digital camera to cellphone and even my make-up. I guess she's figured out that hers are just made of plastic and doesn't really work. I found her this morning drawing in her barney notebook using my ballpoint pens. She knows how to open my pens so I need to make sure that I never leave anything around the house. I bought her tons of fat crayons but she rarely uses them. Perhaps I should start playing with her toys just to renew her interest.
