as a matter of fact: self-ish ed.

• i am bad with dates. hardly remember birthdays!


• born in the year of the rooster under the twins sign


• nail biter


• i do not trust the school system. i believe that there are professors out there who guess student's grades.


• optimistic but a worry-wart


• zoom in, zoom out, erase, re-write, review, double check, second glance at my craft projects


• used to be a who-cares kinda girl, as long as i want it, as long as it's fun for me.


• i read sweet valley books and nancy drew mystery case files. the first book i read was nancy drew and the dancing puppet. then it was the sweet valley twins' barnyard battle. my favorite book among the sweet valley twins were the super chillers, the carnival ghost, and the secret of the ruby necklace. i was very lucky, i think, because i was able to read sweet valley saga: the wakefields of sweet valley and the wakefields legacy!


• also read the fear st. series


• sudoku addict at one point


• and i'm so inspired right now, i hope for another take at life but with a new stroke, oh i pray!

143!

Torrential rain in Metro Manila left many parts flooded. We have stayed in Cainta for almost 2 weeks, we were lucky that we were brought back on Friday, else we would have been stuck in flood. We were also spared of high flood in Quirics, thank you Lord.

My doll baby is 143 days old today!


And I finished a layout, adding to the files of "to be printed."

good things and bad ones

i have been losing sense of time. not knowing what day it is, except after watching tv shows. is that a good sign or a bad one? that means i do not think of any deadlines or meeting schedules. is that a good sign or a bad one?

speaking of deadline and tv shows, i watched an episode of jeopardy and found out that deadline was first used as a prison term which meant a line which should not be crossed else, be shot. ahmmm...

and again, speaking of soldiers, today is the anniversary of martial law, which affected Filipino lives, some for better some for worse. and so that means a holiday.

and what is the best holiday? Christmas! Yey, yuletide season is approaching!

and ending my train of thought...

having a break from yoville

i have been addicted with fb applications. i have seriously spent my entire days just playing, ekk! i need help. need to go and rehabilitate myself. *shudder* it is so weird that yoville's widget factory is replaced with sweet's factory... i'll bake the 3 day- cake to help me from logging in and playing. but there is this what to wear game... hmmm.


aside from yoville, and what to wear this is what i do infront of gels- the lappy

famil-e

One of our first picture as a family, but def my fave.

We are a family born in the month of May, although I am under a different sign. Our first names has 6 letters and starts and ends with an e. Similarities are there but differences will arise, we hope that we can surpass them all with God's grace.

flu week

We are all hit with flu. Poor little doll baby is having a difficult time sleeping. Had her checked up last thursday morning. To ease her nose congestion, she was prescribed with a salt solution drops and to use a nebulizer. Poor thing. But that makes her comfortable.

She was so moody. She wails when she wants to be held and she cries with tears quietly when noone is paying her some attention. But now she is a bit well, she is back to her cute sweet little self.

I'm on FB!

I know it's way too late for a shoutout like that. I ignored FB for the longest time, and now that I am in, there are lots of catching up to do. Not only with connecting with friends, don't get me wrong Friendster has kept me and will keep me connected, but the games in FB will get you addicted. I only am fond with one at the moment, YoVille. Wow, visiting other people's pad made me drool. Ganda! I like Glaiza's and Sheila's so far. Glaiza's is super complete, I didn't say she's addicted to it, I only said that all her rooms are super complete and overly super nice. =) Playing the game made me miss Dollwar. It is so sad that the site is no longer available.

Uh oh, my Ecs is waking up again. She has been waking up for the slightest noise. But she smiles more often, cooes more often. We now play together! I do the talking and singing and miming, all she does is smile, and that is enough to make my day.

Love my doll baby.

a dream is a wish your heart made

I believe that dreams come true. And that they are whispers of the heart.

As I watch my baby sleep, I wonder what her dreams are about. She smiles, and now she also frowns. Inay told me that this is because angels are playing with her. Anymore reasons?

With Ecai's sleeping cycle, she sleeps almost the entire morning. Wakes up to feed, that is every two hours. She then wakes up at 10pm and will sleep at past 1am. And when awake, if she's in a good mood, she now knows how to interact, can you believe she already laughed at asel's and jut's funny faces and sounds. And oh, she follows my lead when we invite poop.

Love my baby girl.

PS. I received a blog award from Gwacie. She's a girltalker and a talented digiscrapper. (Sori sis, I am not able to follow the rules of the award.) People, head on to her blog, her layouts are something not to be missed. Thanks again Gwacie

my girl

Ecai is turning 3 mos, can you believe it? I do. I am guilty for wishing that she grow up a wee-bit faster.

Took her pictures some time ago and was only able to make this layout so far. Elements are from some kits I downloaded over a year ago.

Alphas: Art Nation

Papers: Park Avenue, Heart

Elements: SS by Lisa, Hidden Garden

When she turned one month, her hand found its way to her mouth. I go crazy whenever I see her sucking her thumb, nibbling her fingers, and even gnawing her fists and arms! I head over and googled,err, yahoo fanatic here, so I yahooed remedies for her addiction. I found relief when I read that this is a childs' way of finding comfort by their own. So from now on, let her be.

she holds my heart

Ecai is growing up, she's putting on weight and adding on length. She's wiggly and cooes and ahhs and demands to be held all the time, which of course, stresses me out. It's tiring specially when she wakes up every two hrs for milk, then have to burp her and dance her to sleep again. I am not complaining, just sharing. No right to complain specially when I have all the help of my mother and mother in law. wink wink. Can't wait for my baby to grow up. We can do things together like scrapbooking, I'm not selfish so I can share my supplies as long as she can share hers. Ha ha ha. But will we share the same interests? Hope so, besides, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Finally had the time to finish a digi layout. I have started this one like, saturday and only finished it now, a wednesday. Whoa, 4 days... aw.

Like Sugar

I love papers! And lines. I think that even if I do the traditional scrapping, I will end up stamping, doodling, and use papers!

I remember when I was in elementary, I would only buy snack foods for lunch. The saved money and saved lunch time, I all spend at the local bookstore. Ogling at stationaries and cards and notebooks. I think I prefer texture than print. I like simplicity in anything... errr, sometimes that changes, only sometimes.I like notes to be neat. I usually rewrite notes, oh, that means that I am guilty of de-forestation. That leaves me with a question... are paper still produced with cutting down trees?

...with anticipation

welcome 2009!

Attended the 8:30am mass at Blessed Sacrament and then the rest of the morning was spent at Botanical Garden. Had 300 shots... err, that's because Euge takes photos in burst mode. And most of the photos are not of us... They are of the fish, the turtles, the swans and the flowers. =) Didn't even brought a tripod! So there was great difficulty in having a picture together. Good thing there is the reference object, you know what I mean! A couple minus a tripod plus reference object equals...
Tada!! Two separate pics in one full body shot. =) I will have to wait for the weekend before I can load some more nice pic of our first date for 2009. Need to tuck in at bed early. Have to work tomorrow, you know. My back aches every morning. I feel sore.

And my New Years' resolution remains the same... to try to stop nail biting! Har Har Har!

And there's always room for extra love.

little girls cry but they make you smile

Little girls make you cry but they make you smile.
They whine a lot but make days seem fine.

Err... that's from me and it sounds so corny... awful and corny.

After sometime, finally made some layouts. Cute girls on the go! Both are nieces. Chiza is from my side. Isabele is from Euge's.



Thanks for looking and have a great week ahead!

j.i.t

Made this lo for Lorie's Freebie Mini Kit and a Layout challenge. This is Chiza aka Bebeng again. And baby girl ng bayan. =) She is my niece and we love spending time with her! At her age and sweetness, who wouldn't? But she is growing up to be very makulit and malikot!

1 2 3 jump!
