Other Side of ME!

While I took a nap this afternoon with my daughter my phone rang loudly. I forgot to set it to silent mode. I only got over an hour nap. Even how I closed my eyes, were fighting back. So I just got up as well as my daughter, and do my work online instead. I guess my mind and eyes couldn’t go back to sleep as there were some tasks waiting and I couldn’t dare to lose them. I already done the first one and two more to go. It my sister’s besfriend called me who arrived in California this week and just she’s just homesick which I understand. I guess it was not the right timing to call me. I guess I will have her join Face Book to entertain herself. Find her friends on networking. I hope she will also not forget calling me haha!

In an hour later, my hubby arrived. I just didn’t go down to meet him as I usually do. I am busy doing my tasks which I must finish them before 10 AM. My daughter went down to see him and back upstairs watching Dora online and cutting papers right now.

I can’t believe what I have found right now, it is the Hampton Chain of Friends Sweepstakes that everyone should join. As a grand prize winner will get to stay at a Hampton for one weekend together with 100 friends. Meaning you can win an entire hotel for a weekend (2nights in a row), fill up 100 rooms plus the winner also receive $5000 to help pay the tax for the weekend!  Honestly, this is my first time hearing such opportunity to win that many rooms. Mostly, I only get to hear a night or two nights stay for family or couples. This is really exciting, isn’t it? WOW! It is unbelievable! Don’t you think this a great gateaway for batch reunion? Unfortunately, most of my classmates in High School are living back home in Philippines. In any case, I have friends here in Colorado but I don’t think I have that so many friends altogether. However, we can actually connect together which is friends of my friends will be invited until we get to reach to that number. I really want it though! Especially five us friends were planning to have a vacation, spend our time in other State and to get more people with us is more enjoyable! I just can’t contain myself upon imagining it. Who knows I will be a winner…LOL!

We can do several things on that 2 night stay such as Dancing for whole night, drink our favorite wines, pillow fight, eat our favorite dishes together, reminiscing our pasts and many more HAHA! My imagination is getting crazy this time. If I win I will ask my friend’s suggestions on what to do in that nights… they might have more exciting things in their minds!

Therefore, I encourage anyone to join the Hamption Chain of Friends Sweepstakes right now to be able to enjoy life. Get out of your houses and just rock and roll your life with friends and acquaintances in that two night stay! This Sweepstakes is open to everyone not just those that are Hilton Honor members. So come and join NOW! To get full information please visit Hampton.com

I just got upstairs from having early dinner. I fried dried fish which made the whole house stinky. I really hope that spray could help to get rid of the unwanted smell. My daughter had some of it and ate it with rice. I also eat have it together with rice and pinakbet that’s left over I brought home from the cooking session at my friend’s house. Indeed, I had a nice dinner. Right now while updating my blog I also do laundry. Thanks goodness to the washer who does most of the work lol! I only get to fold the clothes.

On the other thing, I still couldn’t believe Miss Philippines Venus Raj didn’t get the crown because of that personal question that everyone could barely answer as it needed time to think the biggest mistake in life? How about you, can you answer that easily? Why they didn’t believe she didn’t do major or big mistake in her life. The worst thing I have heard that some people said she was lying with her answer. It is ridiculous. Have her be to answer the question as it was only thrown it to her during the pageant. Respect her answer… if it is proven she didn’t do major mistake can she take the crown? I think Venus Raj is more popular than any of the contestants.

These days, having a cell phone isn’t a luxury, it is almost a necessity. With social networking growing by leaps and bounds for all ages, you need an Internet enabled cell phone so you can update your Facebook or Twitter accounts, from anywhere you go. What you need is a reliable, full-featured phone and dependable cell phone provider. Until now this has meant going to one of the big providers and getting a long term service contract.

However, is there anyone out there that likes or even understands cell phone contracts? I will admit it, I have a cell phone contract with a major provider. We have a family plan with extra lines and extra services. I gave up a long time ago trying to figure it out, and why it isn’t the same as the contracts and special offers they give new customers. I’m not sure. Am I getting the good deal or is the new customer?

Now I we are looking at the services provided by Boost Mobile. Boost Mobile doesn’t make you sign a long term contract. They offer month-to-month plans, including those for Blackberry®, as well as pay as you go plans. Boost Moble plans offer you the features you want, without long term contracts and with payment plans you will find convenient. With the Boost Moble Re-Boost® program you can pay online, pay in person, or pay by phone. If you have kids or others you are helping, you can pay for someone else and give them a hand, or just give the gift of cell phone time. You can simply use your credit/debit card to make payments, or set up an automatic payment plans to reduce the hassle even more.

Also, you don’t have to worry about the equipment Boost Mobile uses either. This isn’t third world, no name, throw away, convenience store hardware. You can pick from a full line of popular equipment, like the BlackBerry Curve 8330 smartphone or Motorola i1, and each has a no-contract plan designed to support all the latest features. You will always be within seconds of connecting to your social network.

It seems that Boost Mobile is taking us in the direction that cells phones were always meant to go.

It is another beautiful day here in Colorado. I guess it is in 80’s this time. How I wish this temperature would always stay like this. I know I can only have this weather back home and some other asian countries that summer is all year round. I will be enjoying myself soon as I am going to be at my friend’s house for cooking. I guess we will cook plenty of dishes such as pork grilling, pinakbet, tinola, and inun-unan and I don’t know what else. I will bring some of the dishes cook. I would have been in my friend’s house righ tnow as we have planned but since there is something I must wait, the delivery of the laptop I postponed the time a little bit later. I know I can pass this task to hubby but I am a little excited to see during deliver lol! I already told hubby about it and he said I can go and he will just take care of it. I will call my friend as soon as I finish my task in here. After this I will give a bath to my daughter and head to hear house. By the way she will pick me up.

I took a nap this afternoon and now I am wide awake and the only one who is still up in this kind of hour, although it is a little early for me yet LOL! Hubby goes to bed when 9 PM strikes. Since my daughter didn’t take a nap with me today so she hits the bed kind of early tonight. Before updating my blog, I browsed through my Faebook page and some things I didn’t like to see.. some of women’s giving birth videos. I mean, there is nothing wrong with it but someone who can’t stand seeing it, I hope they put it in a section where people would like to view. Not just sharing it on the page where everyone can see. I guess I felt that way because I am a woman and posting the private area is just too much, especially there are pervert guys who they care is private area and just pretending to share woman giving birth. And also looking at birthing is so painful. Do you think I am just close minded?

Anyway, since my eyes aren’t giving up yet for tonight I will watch drama online. Awhile ago homesickness strikes me because of the video I saw on TV about discovering places plus hubby browsed through the lot where I came from through google. How I missed back home and explore it back!

August is here. There are two members in the family celebrate birthdays in this month. It is my youngest step son and my only daughter. It is Matthew’s birthday today, he turned 21 years old. A grown up kid already huh! My daughter will turn 5 years old on the 16th. How time flies so fast! The time is approaching for her to celebrate her birthday that she has been waiting for. She can’t wait for the day, in fact she keeps bothering us to have it right now, right now, right now!!! LOL! She is very funny indeed! How come kids want to be big right away while as adult want to go back as a kid. If only I could turn back time HAHA! There is no more turning back! Just face the reality were are moving forward, not the other way around! Anyway, on her birthday we might just go to the restaurant as a family to celebrate. I don’t have plan to throw a party as it is very hassle. I just want to relax and just worry about the day where to celebrate it. If we are in the Philippines I can throw a party since my extended family can help me prepare all those foods. Here in America if I throw a party I only have it catered from Filipino restaurant. This time, no celebrating with friends yet. Just exclusive for family!

Life has been so busy with partying, gathering, teaching my child and doing household chores. Life has to be this way while still living. Don’t you agree? This day I am fighting to combat the laundry, hoping to finish it today. The easiest part to do such chore is loading them in the washer. I don’t like folding especially my daughter’s clothes. They are tiny and it takes awhile to finish. Is there any second hand to lend me? LOL! Just a good thing I don’t need to iron them as I will fold them right after the dryer stops. It saves my time and energy to do it not unless if it is hubby’s office suits.

It has been awhile since I teach my child. She needs to practice more writing her names. She’s getting better but I want her to be perfect in writing between three lines for first letter and lower case for small letters in two lines. It is quite a challenge for me though as I am anticipating if she could get the lesson right after teaching her. So far she is doing good. Right now we are both taking a break, she’s eating her lunch while I am updating my blog. I am trying not to hard on her, sometimes I just want her to learn easily by just one teaching. How cruel would that be? I know.. upon teaching her I have learnt something.. BE PATIENT! Just a good thing she’s being cooperative and could learn faster.

I have been so busy watching “When It’s At Night”, an action and romance drama. It is all about Cultural Properties that have been stolen by a tomb robber. I will not spoil the story on my blog here so I let you guys watch it, just search it through google. This is what I do on my spare time watching whatever catches my eyes. Honestly, not only on spare time but also when I procrastinating other things LOL! All I want to do is sit and watch it as long as I want. You all know when it is drama series it takes a long while before it gets done, however I just can’t stop watching until I can just watch it for less than a week. So far I am done watching almost all of the episodes, one more episode to go! Hubby reminded me to finish what I have been doing on the computer and go to bed. Yeah, I felt bad for staying up too late. What can I do? I have been doing this since he got a vacation off of work. Nonetheless, I tried hard to kick back on my normal routine since hubby got back to work since two days ago.
