My cousin will be celebrating his birthday tomorrow. He’s a graduating student (6th Grade) so it’s a double celebration -graduation and birthday. He will be celebrating his birthday at their resort and all his classmates and teachers are invited. Of course, we will be going to.

My Aunt told me that he’s asking for ps3 as a gift. She bought it yesterday and she’s really happy that her son like it so much. Can’t wait to see them tomorrow. I’m sure we will all have a blast!

A while ago while watching there’s a weird thing that happening to our television, our TV or rather the show that we’re watching is zooming in and out of the tube. This is really a premonition to buy a new one. LOL!

Actually my sister is really going to buy a Plasma TV this week and I’m dying to see it. A Plasma TV – so cool! We will also buy a plasma mount for it. A new TV and a new stand, wow, happiness! I’m also looking forward for a new and stylish room, in my dreams! LOL!

It’s already summer time here in the Philippines. When you go out it’s so hot that it feels like the sun is just a few inches away from you – right, that hot!

I’ve been looking forward to our family vacation, same as my Aunt in the states. She and my Uncle are looking forward for the summer. They’re planning to buy a house near the beach and they’ve been looking forward to retire there. My Aunt is telling me about Palos Verdes foreclosures last night. It’s a place near the beach which they love. I hope I can visit them when they bought the house. I miss them so much. I really wish I could visit or stay with them during vacation. That would be lots of fun!

My friend who now resides in New York will be spending the New Year with her boyfriend. We had a little chitchat last night and she told me about her vacation in North Carolina with Charles.

This will be their first holiday vacation alone because the previous holidays there’s always family around. They’ll be spending their vacation at the beach in North Carolina and her boyfriend had already reserved for outer banks vacation rentals which is pretty awesome. Wow, it’s nice that her boyfriend’s thoughtful and really wanted to spend some quality time with her.

I’m glad that we had this little chitchat and I’m also looking forward to seeing her again real soon!

With all the stress and worries that we are thinking or fighting off, I think it’s best to have a personal time. A time for you to think, to relax and have fun. Here is an advice for you on what to do to your personal time. Enjoy!

Personal time:

Find the nearest garden and spend some precious moments surrounded by nature. Better yet make your own. Whether it be in a backyard or on a table near a window, the time you spend seeing a plant grow also nurtures your soul!

Speaking of insurance, my friend is asking me about it. She wants to have one because a few months from now she’ll get married and she doesn’t want to worry about hospital bills / accidents anymore. A fresh new life full of happiness and worry free is what she wants to have.

Good for her, right? I thinks it’s also a clever thing to do. In starting a family, you no longer look after yourself but also your husband’s so less worries equals to blissful life. Later, she’ll come over at my place and we’ll look for affordable but good insurance quote that is perfect for her. Can’t wait to see her!

My friend’s cousin Liza is so lucky. She recently graduated from College and because she’s a Cum Laude, her parents gave her trip a to Florida. Oooh, I’m so green with envy! Lucky girl!

Well, I think she deserves it. Liza’s always been a good / obedient daughter and she never gave her parents a major headache. My friend and I while chatting and gushing at how lucky her cousin is, we also searched florida vacations on the web. We’re kind of torturing ourselves with “what if’s” then we just laughed it off. We also talked about the places that we wanted to see or travel. Seriously we are happy for Liza and proud of her. Have a safe trip, Liza!

My Aunt Marie is living in North Carolina for almost 10 years now. She e-mailed dad earlier – telling him about thinking of retiring here but she’s having second thoughts because Uncle Dondi is sick.

Dad got the chance to talked to her a while ago and asked her about their condition. They’re okay at the moment and they’re planning to renovate their resthouse here in Tagaytay for retirement. She also told dad that Uncle Dondi’s having heart problems and it’s a good thing that they have insurance. I remember talking to my friend and she mentioned about Blue Cross North Carolina so when I talked to Aunt Marie I mentioned it to her. I wish I could physically help them especially Uncle Dondi whom we are so fond of. I wish they would retire here.

She told us that they’ll be coming this Christmas and I’m so happy to hear that. It’s been sooo long since I last saw them and I bet we will have a feast when they come back!

Can’t believe how time flies. Imagine Christmas is just around the corner when it feels like yesterday we just celebrated Halloween.. If you’re a Filipino, you’ll surely know that celebrating Christmas is really a big deal. I’m sure most of the Pinoys out there were already done with their Christmas lists or doing Christmas shopping!

Most of us, aside from gifts do give cards, too. My sister is planning to give a photo holiday cards because she wants to personalize it. I like her idea and I’m thinking about doing the same. The cards are sooo cute and isn’t it really nice to receive a personalize one? Hay, I really love Christmas. This is one of my favorite part of the year. I love all the craziness, chaos and the festive moods of people – giving gifts and receiving one, it always brings out the little girl in me.

Remember my friend Gail? Her Cafe is now in full blast and I’m so happy for her! Last week she had her Cafe’s soft opening and what I can I say, it’s a success!

Now, she’s as busy as ever times ten, that’s how busy she is! She’s asking for consultations and a little help because she’s new in this business. She also asked about merchant services which I’m so clueless about so I Googled it after we talked. I learned that they are service providers that helps you with your business or in short it will make your business life easier.

I’m so happy for Gail, I really am and I wish that her business will be more successful even if that means she’ll be superb busy as a bee!

I just heard from the news that it’s only 56th days to go and it’s Christmas time! How time flies yesterday we just had our Todos Los Santos (All Saints’ day celebration) and now, people are heading to the malls for their Christmas shopping!

Maybe next week I’ll have my Christmas shopping, too. There are many people on my Christmas lists and I want to give them something that will make them happy. Me, I’m planning to give myself a loose diamonds that I saw from the magazine. Who doesn’t like diamonds, right? If only I have lots and lots and lots of money, I’ll collect diamonds for sure. Diamonds are ladies bestfriend as they say. Hay, I really love diamonds.
