The Best of B February 27, 2012

My 30th is so close and untill now I dunno how I’d clebrate that day. As a mother, I really wanted a family-oriented celeb. I wanted something grand like travel, which involves a plane ride but hubs has this busy sched, so I really cannot go that far (yet) but once he gets his leave credits, I sure hope our family travels again.

As of the moment, I’m thinkin’ of a family trip to Baguio. I have been there several times as a kid. It has always been a “good, relaxin’ place” for me, I want my children to have the same experience. With Baguio in mind, I’m thinking of how we can go there without tiring the hubs in driving all the way to and back. So I’m also thinkin’ of alternatives like riding a bus (but then it would be hard to go around since we do not have our own transport when we get there.) or getting the services of a rent a car. 

Since I’ve been to Baguio numerous times, I wanted a different feel to it this time; I’m calling this as “The Best of Baguio”. My kids have mixed feelings on this trip. Dyl is not really enthusiastic and wouldn’t want to go (makes me wanna bring her there more) since we’ve watched this creepy local horror film which casts Gabby Concepcion and that scares the hell out of her, on the other hand excites Zoe that further irritates Dyl. Hehehe…

I really like planning a lot, so far here’s what I have in mind:

- Take a family picture next to the Lion’s head (na mukhang Monkey)
- Go see the BenCab Museum
- Pick strawberries
- Dress up my kids in Igorot costumes (lol) sana mauto ko pa sila. Hahaha…
- Go see SM (na walang A/C)
- Asian Hot Spring (hidden hot springs in Baguio)
- Good Shepherd Convent (always a stopover for their peanut brittle and ube)
- Our Lady of Atonement (to hear mass)

Extras: (if time permits)

• Tam-Awan Village (for trekking – maybe we’ll pass)
• The Mansion (just for the heck of it)
• Easter Weaving Room
• Burnham Park (1st time for my kids)
• Mines View (1st time for my kids)

A Tribute February 23, 2012

Whitney Houston has been a great influence in my life, it’s sad that her career and her life was cut short at a young age. What better way to pay tribute but to stage an event with friends.

Sunday stillness February 12, 2012

Grocery shopping and Church day, food for the body and soul.

February 8, 2012

We’ve spotted a place in Parañaque and I’m excited kahit na hindi naman talaga sya bahay. Just the fact that we do not need to drive and allot so much time in reaching the airport, MOA and other places near it.

Happiness…

Now, it’s time to collate ideas on how to decorate. This is a screenshot from my PC. (as you can see, i’m already workin’ -slightly- on it.)

This will be my next project…

February 8, 2012

I wanted to change our blue living room to this:

I want red, black and white colors this time.

But I’ve scouted the Landmark and the nearest SM but I can’t find the right kind of red curtains. I’m already thinking of having them customized. Hehehe…

Somewhere in the middle February 5, 2012

We need a transient house, yun ba tawag dun? or a middle commute house if that better suits it. hehehe… Our place is just insanely far from the jerport. We’ve been looking and looking and looking… even a small place will do instead of renting a place for hubs, we agreed on paying a wee more and consider it an investment.
