travel gifts

DGH — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 03:24:10 +0000

Finally the eagle has landed! hehehe we’re finally home for 2 months vacation. 15 days has already passed since we arrived, our luggages are almost empty as the pasalubongs have been taken out and given to their respective recipients. I can’t afford to give Ulysse Nardin watches for pasalubongs, so we gave out the usual chocolates and shirts. Maybe when I’m mega rich, my family can expect luxury items as gifts.

Hubby is flying back to Prague in two weeks, I have to buy some Pinoy stuff for my friends and ask him to bring it back with him. I hope this time we won’t have excess baggage.

getting ready for a major trip

Packing up is a big challenge, deciding on what stuff to bring and to leave behind. Truly, our planned vacation has suddenly made me figure-conscious, what with clothes to be brought which is a must. And naturally, this brings me to the question of which blouse or jeans to bring that would fit me presently, not before when I still had a “cute” frame!

Many others who desire to lose weight easily read reviews of weight loss pills as there’s a wealth of information about this topic on the Internet. For instance, I’ve come across an online resource about diet pills, providing a guide and helping consumers who are on the lookout for pills that will work for them. Their website claims to base the information they give on two methods, consumer ratings and experts’ analysis.

wishful thinking!

Yeah, I’m still deep into my preparation for our most-awaited trip back to my beloved and much-missed home country, and I can’t help but notice how I’ve “filled in” since I have last gone home. Naturally, as I have to go through the clothes I have to bring with me, and this means I have to include only the ones that fit me. I have then to plan how to be back to my previous figure, as I don’t want everybody back home to comment that I’ve “bloated”, though in a sense it’s true!

I’m sure there are many others like me who would want an instant weight loss result. Well, I bet they’re choosing over a lot of diet and weight loss options, reading apidexin reviews or asking recommendations from friends and even licensed physicians or trainors. As for me, maybe I could just do exercise? Hmmm… Wishful thinking again! Tee hee.

Being out more often lately allows me to enjoy the pretty flowers around me. I’ve been snapping pictures to capture their beauty. They always seem to tell me, “look at me! look at me!” Surrounding yourself with beautiful things especially nature can give you that relaxed feeling, something you need when you’re stressed or when you’re in a Lipofuze diet. It always lift my spirits up when I’m out (as long as it’s not too hot!!!)

Here are some of the beauties that made it to my album last weekend:

I wish I knew what their names are.

bloated

DGH — Thu, 08 Jul 2010 20:24:53 +0000

I blew my diet during a weekend of barbeque marathon with friends. We were pigging out a lot! Geeez! Now my tummy looks bloated that I’m worried it won’t flatten in time for our vacation. Shall I take a diet pill to address this problem? Hmmmm… Climbing up and down 7 stories everyday didn’t seem to help either. I am thinking of some tummy exercise that would work. The problem is, I don’t know what. If it can’t be helped, I just might hide it with cardigans or wear loose shirts and blouses to hide what needs what to be hidden. hehe

Do you have a better solution? Please let me know!

road trip

DGH — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 19:23:10 +0000

Since summer kicked in, I’ve been seeing plenty of rvs in the road lately. The summer camps are fully-packed with rvs! I’m sure they’re having fun doing this. Most of them are doing it every year, and each time choosing a different place to go to. They must have done plenty of preparations before going in their trip; the stuff to bring, rv insurance needed, which roads to take… Whew! Good thing there’s GPS these days to make traveling easier.

I’d love to own a RV too. Someday, I wish I’ll be able to go on a road trip with my family and visit the many interesting places I still haven’t seen. But if we can’t own one, even a car would do. We’ve been to neighboring European cities just using our old Mazda car so not having a RV can’t stop us from traveling on the road.

trip preparations

It’s officially summer in Europe but unfortunately we won’t be here to enjoy it. We will soon be flying to Philippines and the its rainy season there. Isn’t it ironic? We’re leaving Europe just when the weather is perfect in exchange for wet and soggy days? I hope it won’t be raining all day there, and that there won’t be any strong typhoon hitting the country like last year.

I have started preparing the things we’re going to bring for our trip – unused clothes, gifts, the kids clothes, etc. I am thinking of buying my little girl a pair of rain boots which will be useful for the rainy vacation we’ll have. At least I don’t have to worry about her feet and shoes getting wet or dirty when she steps in puddles. Weee so many things to doooo and buy before we leave! But we still have enough time to prepare for everything. Rrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

stop me!

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!

on sleep and body figure…

DGH — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 20:38:33 +0000

I slept early last night coz I was soooo tired from the other day’s malling with friends. I was surprised when I woke up, it was already past 3am. I can’t believe I slept that long without interruption. hehehe Don’t wonder why I’m surprised. I have a baby boy to feed, so my sleep always gets interrupted. After feeding him, I was lying in bed unable to get back to sleep. So sad. Two hours after, baby woke up and it was feeding time again. It was only later that I fell back to sleep.

I’m trying to get enough sleep and rest lately and also eating healthy diet. I have a goal which is to flatten my tummy like it was before I had my first child. Others have tried apidexin, but I am already satisfied with my weight. It’s just my bulging belly that I want to work on. Hopefully even with lack of sleep, but with proper diet, I’ll still reach my goal. Good luck to me!

weddings again

DGH — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 08:02:35 +0000

June is that time of the year again when weddings are aplenty! Lots of brides and grooms are scouring gift stores for unique wedding favors. As a bride once, I know how hard it is to look for these items. We all want to have the best for our wedding, so we definitely like something that’s special, something which our guests will like and appreciate. When we were planning for our wedding reception back then, I didn’t really want to cause extra hassle for ourselves, so we just took what the wedding favor our caterer offered to us to be included in the reception package. It all depends on the bride and groom how they want their wedding to be. If its a lavish one, then there are always wedding coordinators to help with planning every detail of the wedding. But whether it’s a simple or a grand wedding, the most important thing is that the couple is finally united in God’s grace as man and wife.
