Hana Kimi Drama

After watching Hi My Sweetheart, this time my friend lend me Hana Kimi. Its story is about a girl who flew all the way from America and disguise as a boy to enroll in a all boy school just to be with his idol. She keeps on pretending as a boy without her knowing that Quan (her idol, or I would say love one) already knew that she is a girl. The story is really funny and exciting. See how Quan will protect her so that her identity will not be known and how they secretly love each other. Both Hi My Sweetheart and Hana Kimi are good to watch but for me I still love and enjoy Lin Da Lung in Hi My Sweetheart. Anyway try to look for this novela and its something that is good to watch.

My Mercury Suki Card

I have this Mercury Card Suki Card that I always swipe every time I buy medicine or some food from them. This works like SM Advantage card but with Mercury you don't need to pay to get it. I remember you just need to present receipt with a total of P1000. You can collect receipts until you have a total of P1000. For every P200 accumulated purchase you get 1point. Each point is equivalent to one peso. Last week is the first time I used my accumulated points. I think I already have around 134points and I decided to use 110 points. I bought 30pcs caltrate plus which cause P210. With my points its like getting more than 50% discount. Well, well, I did the math and that means with 134 x 200 = P26800. Wow, for the past year I already spent that much with mercury... urgh! Anyway it still feels good to get a discount. 

Note: Unredeemed points will be reverted back to zero if the Suki Card is not continuously used for 180 days. 

A Little Landscape

Two days ago a man in motorcycle came knocking at our door. He was offering a landscape in front of our house. We have very little space in the front (approx 6x18 feet) which I was not able to afford yet to fix. I am planning to close it and put a gate. He offered me 3k for the landscape plus a little kickback, P500 for his own pocket. He offered me 1month to pay it. I got carried because of the installment plan. He even offered additional service like putting stones on our wall, adding groto and having a waterfalls with fish pond. Well I thought having a fish pond is ok but my mom says its already expensive. He is offering me 11k for the landscape plus the waterfalls with fish pond. So I decided instead just to have the landscape. Since my computer is still not fix until now ( a different story ) I am unable to take a picture and post it here. Anyway I am satisfied with the outcome and is waiting for the blue grass to thicken and become very green. I don't have a green thumb but I hope our little landscape would look better and better as days goes by. I am still planning to have a gate but I am planning to keep our cute little landscape. 

Hi My Sweetheart

I have a friend at work who enjoys watching Koreanovela, Japanese drama and Taiwanese drama. She even read articles about the artist. I was able to watch some of these through local channel but now I have no time for it. She give me a link to watch "Hi My Sweetheart" in You Tube and she also let me borrow a dvd for it. I just finished episode 1. I find it very light and relaxing to watch. It makes me smile and laugh while watching it. The story is about a very rich nerd or dork and they describe him. He is the only son and he grew up being protected by his eldest sister. His sister was not able to get married because of him but she was over protective that he grew up alone with no friends, not knowing how the outside world. At the age of 20 he decided to move out and study college abroad and that's where changes in his life takes place. 

Moving to Our New Home

We moved to our new house last Sunday. I took advantage of the Monday off since it is US Memorial Day. At least I will be at home to assist my husband fixing things. We started moving around 5:30am. My dad told me to prepare rice, water and salt because it should be the first item that we will put inside the house. It should be put in the middle of the house to have good blessing. It is my husband who put most of our items in boxes... I guess that is why most of them doesn't have label (hehehe). Anyway we don't have lots of things. Thanks to my mom for our sala and to my Tita Milet for our dining set. We used to live in a small room in my mother's in law's house and I thank God after so 6 years of getting married we now have what we can call our own home. This may not be a mansion or very big house like what most are dreaming of but I am very thankful to God for this blessing. 

Suntel 350

We are planning to move next week and since there is no telephone available yet in our area I decided to apply for Suntel Wireless Plan 350. It got approved and I got the phone yesterday. I was given 3 phones to choose from and I got the Nokia C1-01. I was told that I have unlimited calls locally (Cavite Area), unlimited calls to any SunTel or Digitel Landline, NDD and IDD are pre-activated but of course there is a charge. One thing that I don't like though is that they don't offer security code for NDD or IDD calls. What I did instead is activate security keyguard on my phone so that a keycode is needed before you can unlock and start using it. In less than 24hours our line got activated and I was able to try it last night. At first I am unable to call. After making a call using our area code 046 it started to work. I tried again with out the area code and I can call local numbers, yey. My number is also a local telephone number not what I read online saying their number is a cellphone number. I am not sure if its a different plan. Anyways I hope I would have good experience since I am tied to a 24 months contract. 

New Linoleum Flooring

Less than two weeks from now we will move to our new sweet home. Last Sunday as preparation we decided to put linoleum flooring for the mean time. Cement floor is very dusty and since we have kids (small ones) having easy to clean and affordable flooring is a good idea. Urgh! My bad, I made a wrong calculation of how much we need. So what happen then is we went back to SM to buy more linoleum. Unfortunately when we came the design that we bought is no longer enough for what we need. We then decided to get a different color and design. Well I just think of it as a division, hehe, since we don't have room division yet. The first column I said is the bedroom and then the remaining different design is for the sala and the kitchen. Anyway in the future (???) we would like to replace it with tiles. 

Mother's Day 2011

Well nothing special for this day. I slept with my mom house after painting our house the day before mother's day. I wake up early around 4am, eat breakfast and take bath. I slept again after a while. We did not prepare any food for the day I just greeted my mom happy mother's day. We stayed in the house the whole day watching TV. We match Pacquiao and Mosley fight even though we are already told that Manny won the game. Mosley keeps on running and I would say its not a good fight. Mosley make it too easy for Manny. Anyway we went home around 7pm. Even though we did not make any special celebration I am very thankful for my mom. Just like what they said nobody can replace the love of a mother. Truly I thank God for giving me my mom. Once again, Happy Mother's Day! Thanks to all those people who texted me and greeted me in FB. I did not reply to any of them.... 

Starting a New Life

We are planning to move to our new house before the school year start this coming June. I am so excited to move and start a new life. It is going to be a new environment, new neighbor, new friends, new school and new teacher for my kid.

I already enrolled my son David at Harrell Horne Integrated School inside Pag-asa Subdivision. Good thing my husband find out that there is a gate near us where we can ride a tricycle going to the school. I already paid for his books but I still need to save money for his uniform and school materials. He will use the black shoes that we bought last school graduation and will use again his school bag. We will just dispose his old uniforms by giving it to a neighbor that will plan to enroll there. Talking about uniform I just saw a cute scrub uniform for kids at http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/categories/Scrubs/Scrubs-for-Women/. 

Thank you Lord for all this blessing and continue to guide us as we start a new life in a new place. 

Painting Job

The house the we purchased is bare inside so part of the things that we need to do is to paint the walls. My husband first put "lason" on the walls. He was told by some of his friends that the wall needs to be "lason" so that the paint will stay on much better. After that we hired one of his friend to put "masilya" on it. Since we are on a tight budget we decided to do the painting. Last Saturday we bought Davies Megacryl Latex paint from Ace Hardware. It cost P744.50 per 4liters. Since my favorite shade is green and my husband wanted something light we agreed to get Lime Lily color. It looks like yellow green. The paint is semi-gloss so the texture is really good. We are able to consumed two 4 liters can for the first coating. This weekend we will do the 2nd coating. Thanks to my mom who volunteered to pay for the paint first, hehehe. I will pay her on my next pay day. My feet really ached after the painting job since I am wearing a sandals then. I am not supposed to paint during that day but since my husband doesnt have anyone to help him I decided to paint as well even though I am wearing a maong pants, a sandals and don't have extra shirt. Good thing Robin brought two t-shirts. I used the other one while painting. We are looking forward for the next weekend to finish the wall paint. @_@
