Excitement!

October 26, 2007

Having plans to buy your own house or are you moving in to your new house like us? Well, I know you have a lot in mind right now. Where to put all your stuff, is it going to match the house interiors, do you need to repaint walls, what other items you need to buy, the list is endless! I am going through these things too and I know how much stressful it is. So to relieve me somewhat of my stress, I try to get excited about our future purchases and not think about the cost. What’s got me excited these days is that we are going to get us one of those Frigidaire Dishwashers! It is going to be so cool as it will be built in to our kitchen. If you play the game The Sims then you would know what I’m talking about. Pardon the gushing. Excitement going on. :)

Happy 1026!

Happy Anniversary to the coolest husband and wife team I know - Benz and John of Weddings @ Work!

Benz and John are the owners of this very helpful site. When I was a bride-to-be planning for our wedding, they were a huge help in keeping me stress free. Their W@W community is really heaven sent! I was able to plan the wedding of my dreams and met a lot of wonderful friends through W@W. Add to the fact that John and Benz became very good friends.

So to John and Benz, may you be blessed with more and more life of blessings and prosperity! May the blessing you share with thousands of people go back to you a thousandfold! Love you guys! Mwah!

RANT - HUGE RANT!

What is the freaking wrong with you? I honestly can’t understand what your problem is anymore. I am losing my patience and I am up to the boiling point. If not only for the husband I would have told you off a long time ago. At your age, you should know better, with your education, you should have at least the sene to know what is right and what is wrong. I just wish you’d fess up, act your age lest I totally lose it and loose my respect for you altogether.

UK - Wait for Me!

October 24, 2007

Since an old friend will be getting married in London soon and she wants me to be a part of her entourage (she’ll pay for the expenses whooot! Thanks friend!) as her matron of honor, I am not looking into some accomodations in London. I am excited! It’s London Baby! After the wedding, we will also be visiting Manchester so I’d probably need to look for Manchester Hotels too! Oh wow! This will be one grand vacation! And I’ve always wanted to visit the UK.

Anyway, for those of you who are looking for London Accomodations, do check out Cheaperthanhotels. It’s a very nice site with really great deals for hotels in the UK. They also have information and tip on what to do and where to go. :)

Got Truck? Get a Ladder Rack

My cousin is looking into buying a truck. He is pretty excited and I can pretty much understand. He has worked so hard for it and I am mighty proud of him for getting this far!

We got to talking the other day about some of the things he could do to personalize his truck. And since I was able to see the model he’s planning to buy, I suggested he buy a ladder rack. Not only does it look cool, it’s also convenient for people who would be riding his truck. I kept cajoling him that babes might want to ride his truck all the time and not leave us any room. He said it’ll never happen. Yeah right! Let’s wait and see.

Frustrations

How do you even deal with infertility? Well I don’t know yet if I am infertile but it feels like I am. We have been waiting for that miracle for so long and yet it always seems out of reach. Top it off with monthly dysmhenorrhea and you do the math. It is just soo frustrating you know. To have always dreamed of having a family and yet never being given the chance while countless others just keep on aborting their babies. It’s just unfair.

Stressed

Hello! So how is everyone?

I’m doing fine except I feel really tired and stressed from work. Enough to really make me want to quit. I work nights so I don’t get to see the husband. We don’t get to spend time except during weekends. On top of that, I don’t really enjoy what I am doing anymore. Oh, what to do? what to do? I can’t just quit work because the husband and I will be moving out from his parents house early next year. I’ve been wanting that for so long and yet I don’t know how long I can take the stress.

Auckland

October 22, 2007

Okay, I haven’t done this for quite some time, so let’s go to another destination today.

Today, we fly out to New Zealand. I have always associated New Zealand for breathtaking landscape and a country so beautiful that if I had tons of money, I’d retire right now and live there. I wasn’t wrong. New Zealand is indeed famous for its beauty and unmatched landscapes, wonderful beaches and outstanding food and wine.

One of it’s cities, Auckland is called the City of Sails. Mainly because it’s locals have this love affair with the sea. They have enchanting islands that has it’s cloak of rainforest that surrounds the beautiful hills and landscapes. These make really great for Auckland Vacations!

With a mixture of South Pacific and Asian cultures, with a strong Maori heritage, this city has an abundance of diversity that translates to unique dining and shopping experience. Uniquely and strongly Auckland. This is truly one of the best destinations in the beautiful country of New Zealand!

With the holidays coming up, why not pay them a visit? Have an Auckland Holiday and have yourself a fun, unique and wonderful time in the city of sails, Auckland, New Zealand!

Decisions

Have you ever been faced with a really hard choice, you know, that one where you have already wracked your brains out but can’t seem to know which path to take?

Well, I am in that place right now.

While my career is at it’s greatest right now, I can’t help but feel like I want to stop. I want to live my life. I have had enough of the night schedules and I want to be able to see my husband and take care of him. I want to start working on our marriage. Not that we’re in a rut, it’s just that, we don’t see each other most of the week because of our schedules, we don’t get to talk about us, our lives, our dreams and our future.

Also, I am not happy with where I am now. I am honestly hating my job and regret ever applying for that promotion. I don’t hate the tasks that i have to do, that is not the main thing. No job is easy and I am willing to work my ass off at something I know is important and crucial to the account and the company. The one thing I really hate is working with obviously stupid people - not within my team though - just wanted to clear that out. It’s with this person who holds a high position and yet is so clueless of how things work. On top of that, he is so stubborn and would only listen to his own ideas and thoughts. I just really hate it and it is enough to make me want to leave.

All these reasons piling up and making me really want to leave. But, (yes there’s a but, there always is) with me and the husband finally deciding to move out to a place of our own, I can’t just leave work. We need both our salaries to be able to survive. Aarg! Thinking about this now is giving me a headache. Darn!
