Hats are in :)
First & foremost my apologies to my mother Jenny, sorry po Nay I cannot sleep that’s why I have thought about blogging instead of staring at the ceiling.
I have been very busy these past few weeks - not that I am complaining cos I love every minute of my busy schedule. Never mind the sweat & the stress plus body aches, the laughter, bloopers & syempre the results of my activities were very fulfilling. In these weeks that passed I wore a lot of hats, hats that made me bonded with the people I love the most… some of these hats are:
The Son Hat
Yes for the nth time – my father have given me the position of a son (there are times when I think my Pop thinks that he has 2 sons – Pa, si kuya lang okay?). During the course of the conversation with my father I cannot help but smile, my Dad really trust me with masculine stuff. Gone are the amp & speakers’ errand, we are now up one notch we’re now into DRILLS. Yes my dears drills, barena, pambutas. I am now an educated daughter who can differentiate that Makita is to Japan, Black & Decker is to USA and Bosch is to Germany. Thanks to Pop for this info I will need to teach my children about this. WHAT??? I am gonna buy this??? What do I know with drills? Now what I did was make a detour from the home centers to hardwares, ika nga canvass canvass di ba? It’s a good thing that I went with my friend Jeng (who’s birthday is today & will end in 13 seconds while I was writing this HAPPY BIRTHDAY KLOG!) and Tita Violy when they went to Home Depot at The Fort last Saturday, we browsed at the available drills that is why more or less I now have an idea on what goes in a set. Then Sunday while malling with my niece Meng I dragged her to Ace Hardware for more info. This will be my Christmas gift for Pop kaya I’ll have to be great in choosing which is the best.
The Saleslady Hat
I don’t know if we have penchant for selling but so far my hermanas & I are surviving the sales world. This weekend I have discovered that I have a little power or persuasion hehehe, a few calls and voila orders na!
The Betsy Hat
Not that I complain for being a friend to my dears but it is worth mentioning that I was one last week. To my sweetie Chie, the online shopping via Friendster (you know what I mean) was fun – too bad our choices were limited. To my Fafa Bear Mark, I am so glad we went out last Friday – imagine the CDs that I would never have if we didn’t hanged out? And to know that you’re looking for the one na to brighten up your life is really comforting for me, you know how I will do anything to see you happy. Tonie, welcome back! You surprised me bruha! Namiss kita!!!
The Personal Shopper Hat
This is fun, most especially if there’s no budget margin. I enjoyed picking Moises’ gifts, I love wrapping gifts and most especially taking the gifts’ photos. If anyone knows how I can be a professional shopper (especially for the stars if such position is available) please holler and I will apply hehehe.
The Fairy JUDGE Mother Tiara
Although I don’t think I really judge people (no matter what you say, I didn’t judge you) this is a challenging role. Not only did I have to prove that I mean well, I have to defend my self to some people who thinks that I create discord to their lives. Now, Jores (your pathetic screen name) I am not judging you but I admit I find it fascinating okraying you hehehe. Seriously the tiara is not really for judging I believe it’s more of just the Fairy Godmother thingy. I just want what’s best for you kiddo.
The Messenger’s Hat
I hate Makati (if dining & shopping are not involved), I hate traveling (if long road trips & planes were not in the picture) and I hate government offices when they open at a slow motion pace every time I need something from the ASAP! Jenny HELP!!!
So many hats so little time for each, one by one you’ll have to endure each role. For some you look forward to doing again for some you wear it everyday & loving it but for some never again - but the best thing from these hats is that they never go out of fashion – in your lifetime you’ll have to try one to live your life to the fullest.

What Does Love Mean?
Okay talaga mga bata, walang kamuwang muwang but they speak with honesty, integrity and sincerity. Got the text below from an email (syempre pa forwarded ito), a lot of you may have read this already but I am gonna post it anyway and you can't do anything about it hehehe. I know I promised to post new stuff - something juicier than this but believe me - this is worth your time than my stupid whining ang blabbling
What does Love mean?
A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, "What does love mean?" The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what you think:
"When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toenails anymore.
So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love."
Rebecca- age 8
"When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different.
You just know that your name is safe in their mouth."
Billy - age 4
"Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other."
Karl - age 5
"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs."
Chrissy - age 6
"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired."
Terri - age 4
"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK."
Danny - age 7
"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more.
My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss"
Emily - age 8
"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen."
Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)
"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate,"
Nikka - age 6 (we need a few million more Nikka's on this planet)
"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday."
Noelle - age 7
"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well."
Tommy - age 6
"During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only one doing that. I wasn't scared anymore."
Cindy - age 8
"My mommy loves me more than anybody .
You don't see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night."
Clare - age 6
"Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken."
Elaine-age 5
"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford."
Chris - age 7
"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day."
Mary Ann - age 4
"I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones."
Lauren - age 4
"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you.." (what an image)
Karen - age 7
"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn't think it's gross."
Mark - age 6
"You really shouldn't say 'I love you' unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget."
Jessica - age 8
And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge.
The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child.
The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.
Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.
When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said,
"Nothing, I just helped him cry"
Panalo!
Awww, makes me want to get a pup (I hate dogs, I just want to look at them from a far) so that he can lick my face eventhough I left him all alone the whole day (a HE? so I'm getting a male pup huh).
I can't sleep and now that my junky laptop is reincarnated (it's not so jurasic anymore but not that top of the line - still) I am back to midnight blogging. I have a pretty boring life so bear with me. This week is office hell week. I dunno what's with the work - THERE ARE SO MANY OF IT - this is the reward for going on a vacation? This is the post HK blues? Please take them away I dn't want to see Mickey anymore.
Now here's a confession - I am inlove and insane over a song a guy and the band. I didn't see it coming, I just bought a cd listened to it, was able to watch the bonus video and BANG, I was mesmerized and was brought to a new dimension. Don't ask me anything about Panday (gulp, arghhh) except for the song. Don't ask me anything about Sugarfree except the band guys' names. And don't ask me anything about Ebe cos I really don't know anything about him. I am still figuring out if I am intersted or not (as if) maybe Jenny and Jerome can help me on this. Do I need to write my letter na? Hehehe.
It's official, It's MYRA's BDAY already. HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY MYRA! MISS YOU LOVE YAH!

Domestic Goddess
It's not Nigela, it's just ME :)
Tuna & Mushroom Pasta in Olive Oil
A perfect treat for the weight watchers. All you have to do is sauté garlic then onions in olive oil, add the tuna & the mushroom (I added olives cos I love them) then wait for it to simmer. Then add your choice of herbs & spices (a dash of pepper would be alright but you can also add basil or a lil oregano just to add zest to it) then add salt depending on your preferred taste. It is best that you under cook your pasta a little because when you add them to your sautéed tuna & mushroom in olive oil sauce the heat will just make it perfect. Here’s what I was able to come up from this recipe (mind you I just tossed the ingredients together – walang cook book or instruction advice to) – an instant masterpiece (tastes good too). Yummy or Yucky?
The Tree, the Wreath and the Fairy
Yep yep yep, I am done decorating my humble abode for the Christmas season (actually not that done but I have started it by assembling my very first ever holiday tree). It is the first time that I am living in a real house on my own so buying the perfect tree is really a full time job for me last weekend not to mention the decors & other ornaments, I promise to post some pictures tomorrow. My motif? Pink, Fuchsia, Lavender and Old Rose. My bestfriend Luchie would be very proud of me for choosing the color schemes. I am done with the tree and the wreath and the Fairy was already placed on the tree top. This week I’ll just be doing the finishing touches. I have already installed the lights, have changed the bulbs to blinkers and I am so proud of myself. I was able to do all of it without a handy man. I am now a Handy Goddess hehehe.
Divisoria to Baclaran and to Any Point in Metro Manila
Yes that’s my route. Pen Jen & I went to the shopping capitals of the Metro for good buys – for our selves, our families & friends and of course for our clients. Let me invite everyone to come & buy stuff at our very own Tiange and Garage Sale, it’ll be this weekend – Nov 26-28 at Pembo, Makati City. It’s near The Fort. We have the best items and you guys won’t be sorry. The things we’re selling are worth the travel & money :).
I will post some of the merchandise we’re selling tonight so that you’ll have an idea on what we have ;)
For now I’m going back to work, happy Monday guys!
