Discounted Prices

Who doesn’t like SALE prices? No one. Most shoppers would love discount prices. The stores are flooded by consumers at clearance section. Could it be a discount fashion accessories, clothes , shoes or discount kitchen faucets, it doesn’t matter as long as the price is discounted. Speaking of kitchen faucet, I like to change our faucet here in the house because I saw rusty color on the edge but then, we are just renting here so I guess we have to request from the owner to change it although it was brand new when we moved in.

Overlooking Lake Elsinore



These pictures was taken last Friday. We just stopped along the road to see this scenic view of Lake Elsinore. We drove thru mountain ranges going to OC from Riverside County. Each time we drive this way, I remember Philippines from Gensan to Davao or vice versa and the zigzag road going to Baguio City. Such an exciting experience driving on narrow road with high cliff on the side. Drive safely is a must.

By the time we stopped in the viewing area, no one was there so we got a chance to take pictures before the sun bid goodbye for that day. It also gave me the chance to capture the lovely sunset but only while the car was running so bushes were visible in the photo.

11 Months Arianna




The fruit of our love is now 11 months old. She makes us happy everyday and at the same time she made us worn out as well not just in day time but night time too. Arianna has this so- called “separation anxiety” . Whenever she’s inside her playpen, she doesn’t want to be alone. Mommy or daddy should be with her or else fussiness would start right at the moment you leave her alone. Ever since she was born, she kept on waking up every night (yes until now at 11 months) she would still wake up and cry a little bit then back to sleep, at least two or three times a night. That’s pretty tough in our part but it’s okay. We just hope that one night that she would just sleep straight at night.

At 11 months, she can walk around her play yard with or without support. She has 4 teeth already. She likes to grind her teeth! Arianna also loves to imitate actions and words, she can dance . The words that she’s familiar with are : all body parts, dog, cat, elephant, hippopotamus, chimpanzee, monkey, zebra and basic action words.

Home Show Case

What a blessings we got when we moved here in our new rented house. We don’t have to worry about the things that we need to have especially the furniture. Most of our furniture are given by my in-laws : couch, sofa, dining table , bed frames, mattresses, floor lamps, table lamps, coffee table, tv stands and many more. And since we are just renting, there are few things were included such as microwave, refrigerator, washer and dryer, dishwashing machine, gas stove and air conditioning. In other words, we are living comfortably because of the blessings we got.

30th Birthday Bonus


I've posted in my other blog about the essence of my birthday and now I'll talk about the birthday bonus. The greetings from friends and families are acknowledged by me.I thank you all for that.Those thoughts made my day.

My husband, daughter and mom-in-law prepared foods for my birthday. Aside from foods I also got birthday presents from them: A digicam and mountain bike from husband, a gold gym's treadmill from father in-law and a "shopping galore" from mom-in-law. Thank you so much!

Again, I thank the Lord for giving me another year in my life and for all the blessings.

Website Directories

Many bloggers (including me) really want to get a page rank. I asked myself why in the world I didn’t get any google page rank for two years until today. One of the reasons is that I didn’t submit my website to website directories. I guess it’s time to submit my blog. I also wonder why other bloggers’ post is in the first line in search engine, what would be their secret? I know their secret now, aside from choosing the best title of their entries, their websites are already submitted to web directories.

My Love in Photography

The color is edited using digicam's amazing feature.

My love in photography is unstoppable. My passion in photography is back just recently. Why in the world I started to love photography? Why should I not? I’m a daughter of a photographer. And who will inherit the passion of my father but ME, right? I’m sure my father will be glad knowing that I’m learning how to point and shoot.

My father started his passion in photography in 1985. I was 6 years old then. I saw my father playing with his manual SLR. I threw him a lot of questions about photography. And he answered me back with the best knowledge that he could share. Back then, I had a tiny little hands and I can’t carry that SRL. I was afraid to drop it on the floor. I remember, my father got a lot of customers because he was the only one with a great quality photos in our hometown. These days, he's still in photography but with a lot of competitors, plus the fact that digicam is available and acquired by anyone, his sideline is not that much anymore. Good thing that he’s still the official photographer in the area. He’s still invited to some gatherings and events and yes he’s still earning kahit papano.

Back to my passion: I’m amateur and will never be a pro. I’m glad that there are free tips about photography online that I could study from. I’ve been reading a lot about it lately and hopefully I can apply it and love the outcome of my photos. As a beginner, I’ll just use the “point and shoot” digicam. If you’re curious about the brand, its SonyCyberShot DSC T900. And I’ll post my output in my private blog.
 

Pond Filter

My favorite TV shows as of the moment is the HGTV. They are giving me idea how to decorate the inside and outside of the house. What I like about their show is that they always have new episode, they don’t repeat the show that they have already played on TV. Lately, they showed some of their projects outdoor. One of them is the artificial pond. The owner of the house loves fishing and so they have decided to have a man-made pond close to their house. It was pretty neat actually .Such pond is certainly needs pond filters.

Fitness Equipment

If you were to ask me why I have this slender body, I would love to answer you. I do eat decent amount of food everyday but mind you that I only eat when I’m hungry. I eat three full meals everyday and if possible I eat fruits as my snack. Not only that, I also do exercise by doing house hold chores . Our fitness equipment is helping me to stay fit. So far I have two equipments at home and soon my treadmill will be arrived courtesy of father-in-law.

Lovely Lampshade



There was a garage sale across our street this morning and we went there to see what are on sale. Almost all of their items are Christmas decors. I spotted this lovely lampshade in the corner for only $3. Isn't it lovely? By the way, it's my first time to buy in the garage sale and I'm loving it! I like to buy cheap products, you know.

I bought this lampshade not for my room but for Bienne and Arianna's.

Diet Supplements that Really Work

I didn’t know that only 3% of diet supplements really work. How did I know this shocking info? Well, just click the link and read it for yourself. I couldn’t imagine why other companies out there are claiming that there products are effective and just. Where is their conscience in that sense? How would you know then, that the supplement you are taking is belong to 3%? Be wise, always remember to wait for a real diet supplement by reading some reviews of the users.
