Creative Thoughts

Q: What do you do when you are feeling very sad or depressed?
A: I just keep quiet and try to hide my feelings. Usually I burst out into tears if I couldn’t hold it anymore. I have a tendency to not talk to anyone.

Q: Who was your first crush?
A: my 3rd degree cousin. hehe, at grade 5

Q: If given a chance to skip work for a day (without repercussions), how would you spend the entire day?
A: Stay at home with baby and do some chores so my mom won’t have to do it, do some blogging and shop.

I would like to say hi to all manic monday participants. I’m sure you enjoyed this week’s questions. Keep joining.

First of all, let me thank all those people who joined my drop list. I’ll try to visit you as much as possible. By the way, you might be seeing less rants and personal things here in this site. I just have a new website, My Online Diary.

These are the things that I did last week.

A Restful Day
Date: July 10, 08
Day: Thursday

It’s supposed to be my day off but I swapped schedule with Sally so I can be there at my baby’s dedication this Sunday. I rested from blogging and any goal activity. This is a rest day for me, though I’m working. This is a reward for accomplishing my long to do list, I feel happy and I feel that I ought to celebrate in a way.

I went shopping
Date: July 11, 08
Day: Friday

This is supposed to be posted yesterday, but I don’t have a laptop/computer at home, so its late but I still want to document it. This is my day off, so I stayed at home. In the morning, I busied myself with washing clothes, a bunch of them. I slept after that, it really made me tired. I went shopping in the afternoon and bought shoes for baby, and clothes for me to wear on her dedication.

Excited for Baby’s Dedication

Date: July 12, 08
Day: Saturday

I’m excited for tomorrow, it is baby’s dedication already and we are hoping everything will be fine. I just logged out from my work, and now I’m planning to spend some time blogging, I haven’t been giving so much time for my blogs recently because I observed that it’s giving me unnecessary stress. Well, I love to blog, but working and blogging too much at the same time, is not a good lifestyle. It can make you stressful at that level. So I will just spend probably a couple of hours and head back home to be with my family. I just changed my template for this blog and I graciously love it. I just want to be reminded that I am choosing to be happy that’s why the template is like for kids.

Baby’s Dedication

Date: July 13, 08
Day: Sunday

Yes, finally, its over. It wasn’t perfect, can you imagine? the chicken that we ordered for the gathering had a very bad smell and taste and the people told us about it. They told us next time to ask for their help in cooking instead of letting someone cook it for us. Well, we ordered it from our neighbor who sells food. It was really bad, most of them never ate it. I cried because of that, but in the end, everything else went well. What’s important is baby is now dedicated.

Date: July 14, 08
Date: Monday

I woke up late, instead of my plan to wake at 4 am, I wake up at 5 am. I hurried up to work. I decided to spent 2 hours after work to work on my blogs which I haven’t been working on lately. Just got so stressed at work and realized I need to moderate my blogging which is nice and makes me passionate but is not healthy and adds to my stress. I wrote an article “How I Want To Be Remembered”.
The article by leo of zenhabits about the death of her aunt, makes me realize that life indeed is short. Most of the time, we don’t realize that, and we have a tendency to think that we are here forever, which is so NOT TRUE.

Today I spent more than 2 hours just looking for the perfect templates for my blogs. I do have a total of 4 blogs. Recently, I haven’t been blogging that much, and I spend less time with it. I had just realize that I need to moderate the time I’m spending on blogging, since I do have a regular work to take care of, which as of now is more important than my blogging, which is to me, just more of a passion. So of course, my work has to be prioritize for now. Earning from it, is just addition, but its merely because I love to do it and I earn from it. Honestly, I get into a state of “flow” when I’m blogging. Perhaps, yeah, someday I could be a full time blogger, but not for now that the economy is threatening every one and most likely not now, that I’m earning a good income from my job, and our financial status is indeed far from stability.

I stumbled through a lot of resources, and I just wasted time from them. But anyway, what’s important is finally got it. And that makes all the wasted time all worth it. Initially I planned to do some writing, but my time has already been taken. And right now, I really have to go home. Still have a lot to do since tomorrow is baby’s dedication (baptism in catholic). Well, the above blog is my famous circle, an entertainment blog that features interesting gossips and stories from your favorites stars: celebrities. Yeah, I hate it but I really love the life of celebrities. It’s one of my passion. I hate to admit that, because if we try to think logically its really not good. Getting too interested in the life of others some times take us away from reality. Well, anyway, I just want to share the new look of famous circle.

This second one, is my blog called my verdict: a personal blog just like creative thoughts that talks about a variety of topic. Basically, its about my opinion (verdict) on certain matters.

Okay, right here, is the last but not the least blog. It’s actually the latest addition to the family. It’s called My Online Diary. I intentionally made this to be my diary, wherein I will be posting 3-5 or more sentences that occurred during the day. Well, you might think, who cares? well, my friends do. hehe, and I don’t care if you don’t. Just kidding. But anyway, this is supposed to be a personally blog, not supposed to be shared, as I don’t want to disclose my S-E-C-R-E-T-S. But, I thought why not? So, anyway, here it is now. I do have a bad memory, so hopefully all memories will be captured here, not in photos but in plain words. The rule is to keep it short as much as possible. So as not to bore MYSELF. hehe

Promise: I will keep these blogs running and updated as much as I can. Okies dokies? cee yah

It’s been a while since I last posted for updates about what’s going in my life. Well, as you can see, my traffic is dropping. I haven’t been giving my blog the time it deserves. Work has been so stressful so I opt to go home and rest most of the time, than staying for few hours to blog. You know, I don’t have my own pc at home. If I have, perhaps you could expect me to get a good traffic and of course to do updates perhaps 5x a day. hahahaha! It’s just me, I couldn’t help writing, specially If I started it already. Like now, I made one post which resulted to 3 more, so 4 all in all. Hehhe! Well, right now, I’ve been busy preparing for my baby’s dedication this Sunday. Finally, we will be dedicating her to our God. In catholic, that is the baptism. But to us, its called dedication. I made it as simple as possible, but still there are few things I have to make sure would be okay. Food, the people or the ninongs and ninangs, my baby’s clothes and the money. It made me quiet busy right now. But still, you know what my one goal is as of now: that is to start a sari-sari store business. I’m keeping my eye on it and I’m doing what I can to make it real. I achieved my goal of not touching my husband’s salary. It’s still intact and hopefully will not be touched for other matters. Baby bless had fever since last last day. But she’s getting better now. Right after this, I will be off to SM to buy styrofoam for the food and plastic plates and spoon. Naahh, it’s such a busy day today. As usual, lots of calls while at work, which dried my throat. Good thing blogging does not require shouting.

Air Purifiers are popular in the U.S. Most families have them. We are all aware that the situation of our environment is deteriorating right now. Population explosion created pollution everywhere. It made our once precious natural elements now polluted, sometimes toxic. I think these Air Purifiers are badly needed in the Philippines. Every time I ride a jeepney, the smoke is everywhere, unhealthy for every one. I just shake my head every time I see a mother bringing an infant near the streets where all the harmful elements are floating freely in the air. Austin Air air purifiers are widely known in the U.S. Right now, only the privileged can afford that here in our country. I guess we just have to focus more on doing something about our environment, before its too late for our children and our grand children.

Going back few years ago, people lived a simple life. Students and young people don’t have computers or laptops. They rely on libraries to do their research and projects. They manually do the projects. But now, everything can be done as fast as you want it to be. That is why, students have a tendency to be lax and to procrastinate. They do their assignments on the last minute, thinking that they can always do it anytime. Well, that’s not really that bad. If we learn to look at the good side, it also has some benefits. As long as we use it properly and not abuse it in any way, technology can be a tool that can help as a lot. With the use of computers, you can do your projects faster, and you can even make designs. Right now, there are cheap and affordable computers with printers on them so it can be more useful specially to students. I wonder how the students before survived without all these tools. They must be so diligent and hard working. What do yo think?

Q: Who would you like to see on a new banknote (dollar bill, etc.)?

Q: If you owned your own restaurant, what would you call it?
A: Igcol’s Recipe (weird? hehe, that’s our last name)

Girls love jewelry items a lot. To me, what I love most are earrings. I believe that it can really boost the looks of a woman if she wears earrings. Specially if it looks elegant and stylish. Choosing the right earrings to match your attire is also important. I simply love earrings, I just can’t resist it. I love pearl earrings because it’s simple but it can make you look astonishing. Earrings are indeed one of the best options for a gift to give to your lady. At www.jewelelegance.com you can choose a variety of these earrings. There are clip on earrings, bracelets, necklaces, diamond jewelry and a lot more that you can choose from. If you want to make your woman happy, you might want to consider buying her a precious piece. It’s not the price that matters. It’s the thought.

I never took entrecard dropping seriously. In fact, leaving comments and other footprints such as messages on tagboards are better to me than dropping. Some times I drop, most of the time I don’t. But it doesn’t mean I don’t visit your site. If your on my blogger list, most likely I’m your regular visitor as well. But this time, I want to have an official list of blogs that I could visit, read and drop my card on. I encourage all of you to leave your blogs so I can be your regular visitor. Just leave your blog url’s here and also if you can kindly leave some comments that would be great.
