I Love to Blog

I am so glad that I got more blogging assignments this time. Though it is not as many as I've had before, still the number of assignment this month is pretty significant (wink). For a while there I thought my becoming delinquent with my blogging responsibilities is the only reason why I don't get as much assignment as I used to. Later on I learned that some of my friends in the blog sphere are also experiencing "drought" with blogging assignments. Surely my being delinquent is a valid reason but I think the "drought" in the blog sphere is also one of the reasons why some of the bloggers out there are not receiving assignments as many as they used to. Anyway, apart from the new (and many) blogging assignments this week, I also got a new writing job. I will be a full-time writer (yey!). I was hired last February 7, 2012. I will writing articles which will be published as an ebook. Right now I am still waiting for my first assignment. My employer told me to wait for her email which will contain the instructions and the topic that I will be writing about. I am really excited and nervous at the same time. This is my first time to do a regular writing task. And I hope that I will do well. Wish me good luck! [big grin].

White Uniforms

A couple of months more and the school year will be over. My niece is graduating from high school this year. And she is still thinking of what course to take in college. I remember the time when I graduated high school. I never had a problem choosing the course I want to take, I always wanted to be a writer. However, there were two things that concerns me that time - one is the school where I should go to and second is the school uniform I am going to wear. Quite a concern I had back then, don't you think? [big grin]. Anyway, I took entrance exams for college from two schools only - San Sebastian College and the University of Sto. Tomas (UST). My parents want me to go to UST; while I wanted to go to San Sebastian. I also had a thing with white uniforms, like the nurses uniforms. But of course I can't wear one unless I am taking up nursing [big grin]. I am not sure why I wanted to have a white school uniform. Probably because I am already used to it. We have an all white school uniform in high school. And there is really something about white uniforms. It says something, it says a lot actually (wink, wink). And I also love white.

Meeting Old Friends

Last month, just a week before my birthday, I met with my high school friends at the mall. It has been a long while since the last time we get-together. Unfortunately, two of my friends were not able to come. One of them has work and the other one had a family emergency.

It was nice seeing old friends again. And some things never change (big grin). Though some of us are already married and have kids, the friendship remains. We still enjoy talking about all sorts of things and we laugh together. Actually it is more fun this time because we got lots of new topics to talk and laugh about.

We are planning to get-together again soon. I just hope that we can set more meetings and get-together as often as we can. Its been always fun spending time with old friends. I love it when we start to reminisce about the crazy things we did and the boys that we used to like (wink, wink). I can't wait until our next get-together.

Dream Room

I was busy trying to clean my room the other day. I was trying to somehow make it look like a bed room and not a stock room/laundry room (wink, wink). I know and I admit, I am lazy when it comes to cleaning my room. But with other areas of the house, I have no problem helping my Mom in cleaning them. Anyway, back when we were still renovating my room, I got "big" plans for it (big grin). I wanted to have a big glass window by the terrace which I am going to install some nice colored roller shades as cover and also place the two old single-seat sofa. But instead, I had a not so big glass window which I used curtains as cover and the two old single-seat sofa remained inside the room and was not placed in the terrace. My parents told me that the design I had in mind is not possible. They told me that the sofa will just accumulate dust and dirt in the terrace; the big glass window will just allow the dust and dirt to go freely inside my room, and even if I install a nice colored roller shades, it would not make a difference (sad face). Surely it will look cozy and comfy, but it is not for my room or should I say, it is not for our place.

My Birthday Gift

I got a purple coin purse made of beads from my cousin (sweet!). Its her birthday gift for me. Thanks cousin!

Charm Bracelets

These are my charm bracelets. I got them about three years ago. Each of the charm I placed on the bracelet is significant. Each of the charm represents something or someone. For example, the musical instrument and the musical note represents the love I have for music (wink, wink). But my favorite charm bracelet is the one in the left. It was the last one I bought/put together. Three of the charms that are connected to it are gifts from my niece and friends.

This one here is a "lucky" charm bracelet. My dear friend Lilibeth gave it to me. As I understand it, each charm also has its meaning or it represents something. There's a charm for love, peace, money, health and a lot more. The heart shaped charm must be the love charm (big grin).
