stop me!

DGH — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 17:02:39 +0000

I’ve been itching to cut my faded jeans to turn it into this:

Denim shorts!!!

Well, the one in the picture is too short, but that’s just to give you an idea what I have in mind.

Since summer will be sizzling hot, this pair of shorts would make a cute get-up to where we’re headed. There are many of these types being sold. Yeah! They’re haunting me everytime I go to stores! The shorts in the picture is from True Religion, sold for $172! Eh! So expensive! I won’t spend money for that only! We’re going to the Expat Market Sale this Sunday and I am hoping to find a pants that would fit me to make my must-have denim shorts dream come true. Cheapskate? hehe Just being practical! Hopefully I can also find other goodies at low prices. I’m not going to buy memory there, computer stuff are better bought brand new! But who knows what I’ll find there. Just the thought already excites me!

when laziness strikes

DGH — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 22:43:04 +0000

I am catching up with my online work! I missed many opportunities the past weeks because of the busyness during the Christmas holidays. Sigh… I couldn’t help but to slack and just laze around. But I am glad that I was able to rest for few days during the holidays, something that is really hard to acquire. With the help of my sister, bro-in-law and hubby who took care of the house, kitchen, laundry, and my little girl, I had a grand time just enjoying being a queen. But now, I am back facing reality and tons of work! If I was working in an insurance marketing, I don’t know if I’ll be able to make money with my laziness. But hey, I have a good reason to feel this way. In case you don’t know… I am on my 8th month of pregnancy!

christmas bonus

DGH — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 19:45:11 +0000

One of the perks that employees are looking forward during December are the Christmas bonuses they get from their company.

Most people spend their bonus on Christmas shopping , others are wise enough to save it, and for some, they take advantage of having extra money and spending it for practical purposes like repairing their houses, sending their old parents for medical check-up or getting insurance (after choosing from many life insurance quotes).

Unfortunately for us, hubby’s company isn’t giving out these treats anymore. Yeah, blame it on the financial crisis. That’s why we’re tightening our belts this holiday season as we’ve got many expenses lining up!

How about you? Will you be getting a bonus this December?

choosing the bathroom design and fixtures you want

DGH — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 10:28:11 +0000

There’s nothing more inviting than going inside a toilet with elegant American Standard sinks like this one:

It must feel like being a royalty. Well, the good news is you don’t have to be one to enjoy such quality bathroom fixtures. All it takes is choosing the right product and brand which you can consult with your architect. You just have to tell him what you want, and let him to do the job. But you should also do your part; the internet offers many tips and suggestions on bathroom design, which will help you form your own ideas to own a totally rocking and grand bathroom too!

organized, for now…

Clutter, clutter, clutter… that’s how our side table drawer looks like inside. Hubby finally decided to sort everything out. He threw the stuff that were not in use anymore, took out things that don’t belong in there, and arranged the office supplies inside. Now it looks organized and neat but I wonder how long it will stay like that. I hope our little explorer won’t remember to open the drawers and tinker with the stuff hidden inside, or else… Too bad these drawers can’t be locked. If only they can and also the other cabinets here at home, it would really lessen the work I have to do, that is cleaning up little explorer’s mess.

the heat is on!

It’s actually the heater is on. Right, this week they started to turn on the heater as the weather is getting colder. Brrrrr. Earlier today, weather forecast said the temperature was 3C but the actual feel was -4C. That’s already like winter! They said it will be snowing in the mountains already. With those depressing firgure, that means there’s no escaping the cold here anymore except if you’re booking for one of those miami packages in the US. Good for you! As for us, our hibernation has started a little early considering that it’s still autumn. Huhuhuhu…. Mr. Sun, please visit us once in awhile, please?

TV in our condo

DGH — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 08:37:10 +0000

Our condo in Manila is starting to become livable! Yehey! Thanks to the effort of my mom and sister. They have been shopping around for the furniture and furnishings of our condo. One of the appliances they bought was a TV.

The new TV in our condo unit.

It looks so small compared to the huge entertainment rack where it’s placed. Having a big LCD TV would have been nice, but our budget is limited. A regular TV would do for now. The place will be for renting anyway, not actually a place for us to live permanently.

being insured helps

DGH — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 18:52:19 +0000

Last Saturday an accident happened in my sister’s apartment unit in Finland – their unit almost got burned. Their was apparently a leak in their pipeline which contained lead which reacts with the insulators causing to be flammable. Their eldest son was home alone from a football game. When he used their cooking range to cook food, fire suddenly ignited… Fortunately the two smaller kids were with my sister and their dad, and wasn’t able to witness the terrifying incident. But the eldest was shaken from the surprising experience. It’s good that their apartment is covered with insurance and the apartment manager was taking care of their relocation.

Insurance really helps in times of accident. From lives to properties, it is better to be insured than to be sorry. If you’re not insured yet, it’s about time to check out the different term insurance quotes and find the cheapest policy that will meet your needs.

what’s xbox?

DGH — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 11:51:33 +0000

I’ve been hearing how fun it is to play with XBox but I don’t really have any idea what it is. But thanks to Wikipedia for giving me the information I needed. Everyone is probably familiar with Microsoft and their famous operating software, the Windows OS. Well, its the same company that produced XBox, sixth-generation video game console. It’s Microsoft’s first venture into the gaming console market.

Here’s what XBox looks like:

accommodations in cebu

DGH — Sat, 28 Mar 2009 10:28:20 +0000

When we were in Cebu last month, I was amazed at the sprouting of pension houses and hotels in the city especially in the uptown area. In fact we got to stay in different pension houses. The accommodation might be like that of a San Diego California hotel, but it sure was comfortable and not to mention affordable. For two days we were hopping from one pension house to another and on the third night, we were offered to stay in Club Ultima Suites by my sister’s friend. It may sound like fun, but it was actually tiring moving from one place to another every day.
