I have this really cool notebook that I found back in college. There were stores near the university selling different school items. I found the unique and pretty notebook there!

I remember I couldn’t afford it. It was expensive, selling for a hundred bucks. During that time, a hundred bucks can get you through 3 days of school already. But I really wanted that notebook so I saved up and bought it when I already had the money.

I made it a scrapbook. I wrote my favorite quotes in it, some inspirational stories and lots of kikay stuff. I almost lost it, my dad putting it in the junk box in our storage area. Good thing I found it over the weekend. Now, it will surely be filled with more kikay stuff

P.S. Sorry, I will just post a photo of it tomorrow after I get my digicam fixed.

I have a love-hate relationship with rain. I love it when it’s raining and I am inside the house. I hate it when I am outside and it is raining. I love the cold weather, I hate the muddy roads.

What I love about rain more than anything else is the promise of something new after a downpour. There’s a general feeling of being cleansed. And of finding the rainbow at the end it all.

Jonah is bent on saving enough so that he can buy gold coins. It will be his first big investment. He has a short term money market placement in the bank but he wants more. So he searched and asked friends and they recommended investing in gold, silver or other precious metals. And the way to do it is through the US Gold Bureau.

Jonah researched and is happy about he found out. He knew now that investing in gold will preserve his wealth more than any other kind of investment out there. He is also excited about owning gold. He wants to show his relatives that the person they once looked down on is now the proud owner of legitimate gold!

When the typhoon hit the country, all I wanted to do was to burrow under the blanket and be warm. Thanks to the electric provider here in the metro, I didn’t need a blanket anymore. No power, weather inside the house became warm.

So what I did was just chit chatted with my siblings and just spaced out.

What did you do?

I am still looking for the teen pocketbooks Sweet Dreams. I will buy any Sweet Dreams book that is for sale. I really love the books and I want to collect it again.

Have you read any Sweet Dreams book? My favorites are P.S. I Love You, Comedy of Errors, No Strings Attached, Wrong Way Romance, and Fair Weather Love.

What’s yours?

Now this will make me happy during breakfasts! An egg and muffin toaster. Love it!

Happy Monday!

Wouldn’t it be totally cool if you have these views from your deck?

Now that’s what you call beauty!

Some people are really lucky to have money in their disposal to get properties they can grow old in. Of course a tsunami can easily destroy a house by the shore. But you don’t think about it when you have these views. You don’t think about disasters or the cost of repairs and maintenance when all you can think about is God’s generosity in sharing something as breathtaking as the view of the sun rising and setting.

Understand that the right to choose your own path is a sacred privilege. Use it. Dwell in possibility.

- Oprah

And once again, Miss O is spot on! I do believe that we choose our own path and when we already make a choice and made a wrong one, it is hard to go back and choose again. But we can do that. We can change our course. It’s all up to us.

Since Rey doesn’t have enough money to buy the wood dash he wants for his car, he did odd jobs. He cleaned cars of his neighbors. He accompanied his uncles and aunts to process different documents. He also fixed computer problems of neighbors and friends. All for a minimal fee he asked. And guess what? He is now ready to buy the wood dash he has been eyeing for quite sometime now!

He is getting it from CARiD.com where he saw not only the wood dash kit but also other car accessories he is now saving up for as well. It’s good that Rey isn’t asking money from his parents but doing something, working for it, to be able to buy what his car needs.

I am craving for quesadillas! There is no restaurant near us offering one. I wish we live in the Tomas Morato area where there are a lot of restaurants, fast food joints, and diners. There’s one in every street. I am sure I can find the quesadillas I am craving for there.

Both Nic and Gary, my teenage cousins, lost their ipods in school. My aunts are probably there now to inquire about what happened. The two were told not to bring their brand new ipods but they wanted to show it to their friends so they still brought it to school with them. They left it in their bags and went to lunch at the school cafeteria. When they went back after thirty minutes, their ipods were gone!

I think schools are places prone to burglaries and robberies. And not by outsiders but other kids themselves! How else could you explain the disappearance of the ipods? Nobody else knew the ipods were in my cousins’ bags but their classmates. Who do you suspect then?

My uncle brought home two sets of tv with tv stands. His boss gave it to him because they replaced the tv sets they have at home with brand new HDTV. Wow! I told my uncle that the next time his boss discards the HDTV, I would want to have the other one.

There are some people who really have the means to buy brand new products whenever they want to. I hope I can be in that position in a few years. I can buy brand new products, yes, but not on a whim. I need to save up for it first and then budget accordingly.

Someone just loves to kiss someone’s ass! There’s no other way to say it but that. Or I should have just posted the photo above and captioned it as kissing someone’s ass is love?

I get irritated when I see the person kissing the other person’s behind. Always. I mean can’t the person think of anything else to do but wait for updates? Seriously?

There is something satisfying with helping another person in need. Even as simple a gesture as sending out baby shower invitations for her gives you an enormous feeling of satisfaction. I help those who are close to me and my family as much as I can. If I can do it, then all you need to do is ask.

Of course, I have my limitations. If you just keep on asking and depending on me, I would know it and I will start declining every request. I have a friend who’s like that. Now, whenever she asks for a favor, I decline it. There’s a difference to needing and abusing someone’s generosity.

We have a filthy rich neighbor. He buys paintings like he buys a bar of chocolate. I tell you, he has a lot at home! A burglar and a curator will have a field day inside it. He also buys cars like toys. The last time I saw him Ferrari parts were being delivered to his house. Imagine how much that cost him, not to mention the Ferrari itself!

How I wish I have the same amount of money at my disposal. I would probably be hoarding books just like he hoards paintings! Hehehe

I drink a lot of mango shakes. Not in one day but I do drink regularly. At least twice a week. I also drink lots of buko juice. I just love both! I am not much a fruit person but I have my choices. Banana, mango, buko, apple, orange, pineapple, watermelon…

I wish the fruits I mentioned can act like the best diet supplement so that I need not worry about losing weight anymore. I wish I can shed off calories and bad cholesterol with eating fruits. I also wish I am not as choosy with the fruits I eat!
