I’d really love to purchase a domain name for this blog – creative thoughts. I would like a .com or .net domain, but the problem is I really don’t know where and how to get that domain.

I hope someone can help me with this. Please give me some tips and ideas guys. I need your help.

This was taken during the MS BCI Pageant 2006. That was for our Intramurals. I was crowned as MS BCI, and I also won Best in Gown and Best in Question and Answer.

This is my very first experience in a pageant or beauty contest. Whew, it was scary and it was one unforgettable night. It was so scary, I had difficulty walking on high heels, something I’m not used to. I was so scared that I would fall on the side of the narrow way where we will ramp or walk. Our school really prepared for it and it was one of the biggest event during our Intramurals. The design of the stage was really very very nice, the HRM students were the one who took made it.

My picture when I had a curly hair. I think I look young here though. My lips look very red very I wear lipstick all the time. I can’t live without it. haha! Really, I don’t go out if I’m not wearing it because my lips are pale and I would look pale too, so its one of my best friend. hehe! Very reliable.

I am passing this tag to sexymom, and imelda.

Here is the spring waltz great pic for today. Perfect right? It’s making me feel like christmas.

All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible.

1. carlota – this is cute. you so lucky you have internet at your work. hehehe. we don’t have a full access. which is good thing, cause for sure i will get in trouble.
Take care. enjoy your day
= freedom to surf is one of the reasons why people stay here, where in fact, there are a lot of other call centers here in our place. work will be boring without it. like if you don’t have work, and you got nothing to do but to stare at your pc. that’s not work for us. haha. our company believes in creativity.

2. scotty’s princess – Ohh, Belated HAppy mother’s day to you pala. That is actually what I wanted to write before I hit the publish button, hehe!
= belated happy mothers day too you as well. thanks!

3. joy - Oh..can you beileve that I become a mother and a wife not by choice but by fate too? It’s hard really esp if only one side has the real love. We’ve been through so many trials that almost broke my family but it’s my kids who always make me realize to sacrifice my own happiness coz them are more than hapiness. I am a proud mom with so loving kids. I am not perfect but I handle them well.
= really? i thought it was planned and everything was perfect. in your case, at least your financial situation is fine. as of now, we are really struggling financially. that’s our main problem. im happy too that i chose a man who deserves to be loved, a very responsible and good man. im curious about your story joy! hehe

4. crissy – Belated Happy Mother’s Day to mommy. Indeed no matter what happen our mom will always be there for us. A MOM will always have a loving heart, a caring thoughts and consoling touch.
= yes, my mom proved that a lot of times, when i least expected it.

5. click here to forward – hello irish! thanks for adding me to your daily reads. really appreciate it.

6. mariuca – Hi dear, thanks for the speedy response! I’ve added u to my blogroll and it’s nice to meet another Virgo!
= hi mariuca, so your a virgo too? wow, we must have similar traits…:)

7. paula – Hi, you can visit mine if you like but sometimes it is all about my son – well most of the time. Enjoy!
= its my honor to be your visitor paula. i love to read blogs of moms, it makes me more dedicated as a mother.

8. a simple life – it’s good to hear that your prayers were answered and it’s nice to blog about your blessings
= yes mommy liz, sometimes we take our blessing for granted. we think we lack those things that others have, but indeed if we really take a deep look at it, we will see that we have the things that will make us happy.

9. paula – It seems both our husbands are the same with their relationship with God. Sometimes I nag him to get another job when all seems bleak at his work but he remains in his faith that God will always provide. He has proved me wrong on countless of occasions so I try hard to follow his example but still sometimes I cannot help but think what if this happens and I get scared. My husband does not get scared at all because he has his faith, I do not tell him this but I wish my faith is that strong.
Btw I am also adding you to my links. Thanks for visiting my site!
= i think we’re almost in the same situation. my husband is somewhat like, contented with whatever that comes along the way, and then he leaves everything to God. while me on the other hand, believe that I make my own life, and I can make a change if I want to. So, sometimes our principles and beliefs clash. it’s pretty hard but nothing can’t be beaten by love, communication and understanding.

imikimi – Customize Your World

This was designed by my beautiful cousin, Grace, who now has a young beautiful daughter, Ishi. As you can see, I am the youngest in our clan to be a mother. I think so. That is me at the bottom left corner. That’s Ate Liza at the bottom right. Ate Yvonne at the top left and Grace at the top right corner. Happy Mother’s Day to me, Lol! Yeah, its not easy to be a mother. Being a mother requires a lot of effort and dedication. But, a mother does things not because of obligation but because she feels inside her heart, that she MUST rear her children well. I became a mother not by choice, but by fate. Basically, I did the wrong thing. I became so in loved with my man, that I forgot what was right and what was wrong. There are some regrets. I could have prepared better for my family, so that we will not experience financial hardships. When it comes to maturity, being a mother increased my maturity by 100 percent. Yeah, it made me realize that life is not all about enjoyment and pleasures. My mother was so protective to me and my sister, she never gave us responsibilities, because she thought that’s her way of showing how much she loved us. I would never exchange the learnings and insights I learned on my journey. It’s not easy, but I can make it through the rain. haha, ofcourse along with my ever supportive mom, husband and my precious daughter, roneca bless.

This is a late greeting, but still I would like to extend it, since I wasn’t able to post it last Sunday (the mother’s day celebration). I want to take this opportunity to pay tribute to my mom, who for me, is the best mom in the whole world. If you only knew all the sacrifices she went through for us, her daughters, you would definitely agree with me, that she is the best mom in the world.

Mom, I have caused you so much pain and trouble, and I’m sorry for that. I know that you had big dreams for me, but you were only disappointed because of what happened to me. You proved your love, by not leaving me, even when the whole word left me behind. You stayed, even if I told you I made a mistake and don’t know where else to go. I love you mom, and if I haven’t told you that often, I’m sorry. You are not showy and not the type who would hug and kiss, as you for some reasons don’t want that. You did your own thing, to show to us how much you love us. Though your rearing brought me up to be dependent and less capable, which I would have loved to change, there’s no one else like you. Those who are close to me, know that my mom deserves to be awarded for being a dedicated mom. If we, her daughters ever achieved something, its all because of her, because of her love, inspiration and guidance. I’m sorry mom for being wrong, but don’t worry I’ll stand on my own and try to fix my own life. At least in that way, you will be proud of me. It’s not the end. And I’ll prove to you that I can still be successful even if I married early. I love you and happy mother’s day.

It’s a time for honoring our mothers;
for showing our love and gratitude
for everything they’ve done for us.

Treasure each moment that you have
with your Mother. Don’t let another
day go by, without saying

*I love you, Mom*

My Precious Mom, words cant describe
how very much you mean to me
Your gentle touch, your smiling face
the loving way you look at me
Your love of life – the little things
That makes you laugh despite your pain;
Your words of great encouragement
That give me confidence again.
The love you share with everyone
I know is sent from God above,
And I’m so very blessed because
I have a portion of that love.
I’ve told you many times before,
A better Mom, there couldn’t be
I love you so – you’re my best firned
And much more than a MOM to me
