Nuffamily Day

As soon as knew that this would be a lantern lighting activity, I thought of really wanting to join the first Nuffamily Day!

First, because my baby Mia loves the movie Tangled and in that movie there are scenes where they light paper lanterns that go high up in the sky, surely she will love to see it happening before her eyes. Second, it will be held in Crosswinds, Tagaytay where me and my family have never ever been to. It would be a first time for me and my family. Third, it's a Nuffnang event! I have never been to a Nuffnang event ever, it would be a first time for me (crossing my fingers--if i'd be given a chance).

I LOVE Nuffnang because it gives me a lot of opportunities not just to earn some money (even though it's not yet that big for me--at least I know little by little i'm able to earn) and earn friends too from the online community. If I'd be given a chance to join the first ever Nuffamily Day, i'd be able to meet Nuffnangers/Nuffies plus their families and friends too, in the flesh!

If I would be given the chance to join the first ever Nuffamily Day, I would like to bring with me my husband Ipe, our baby Mia, my two sisters--Jen and Jona, and my nanay Belinda and tatay Lando. We would love to join the fun and ride the nuffbus if we'd be allowed too given the number of people i'd be bringing with me but if not, I think we can just ride our humble owner type jeep to bring us to the venue and back home. What matters most is the fun that we'll have and the memories we'll all cherish after the event which would not be possible without the help of these generous sponsors:

Thank you so much to all of you! Hope you'll let us join in the fun. Thanks again!

Siesta

I saw these outside the office window one lazy Wednesday afternoon...

On a hot afternoon, two doves resting on the very limited space left for them on the window.

I finally got my shoes from Crocs that I won from Smart Parenting and it won’t be possible without the help of twitter. So I guess having a twitter account is also worth it because it’s not just for joining contests, following the tweets of celebrities and known personalities but also for getting help like this. I actually followed Crocs Philippines’ twitter account some time ago and remembered to tweet them about my shoe vouchers one month before they actually expire. I was happy that they were able to answer my questions. Even if I wasn’t able to get the actual designs as stated on the shoe vouchers. At least Mia and I were able to get our first pair of Crocs. Photos of the shoes and the rest of the story at my other blog.

not yet over it

[As posted last April 03, 2011 on Tumblr]


Almost five or six months have already passed since the bus holdup incident but still I couldn’t find the courage to travel through the same route on a bus again. I thought I am over it already but I guess I’m still not. On top of the emotional stress it has caused me, it also costs me a lot just for me to go to work or to my destination through an alternative way—through a taxi. Until I find the courage to ride a bus or a jeepney through that place again, for now, I can ride the LRT but then it is still closed. I still have MRT but beyond its operating hours, I guess I’ll just have to continue taking a taxi or face that fear that’s still in me.

                  

I know it can happen to anyone, anywhere, anytime but that one incident really made me fearful of such incidents. Deep inside of me, I know it will pass but it will take time and God will help me with that.
