My wishlist is a hobo bag. I know, I know. It is difficult for our budget. But trust me, I don’t mind using a bag from a never-heard label. In fact, I’d rather use something like that than use a knock-off.

Locally, Celine fits our budget and offers nice bags.
Just to give you an idea of what I like, here’s a pic.

I haven’t scrapped since last Wednesday. Too much work, too many other things to do. So the planned 2-hours-per-day wasn’t followed. I’m thinking, I could leave for a day just to finish one album. Wachathink? Not a bad idea huh?

Nah! It won’t work.

We had a blast this weekend. But let me share with you what happened on the first party. (I’ll have a separate post for the second party)

We were late for the party because I was so stubborn not to print the given map even if hubby told me to thrice last Friday. So in short, we can not find the place even if we have passed by the hotel twice already. Hubby didn’t see what I had put in the trunk so when it was time to download them, he was shocked to see we’re bringing the rocking lion and plastic pool to the party.

Anyway, I won’t go into the party details anymore. I’d like to post my first impressions:

Litzie – OMG! I didn’t know you were telling the truth that you are a shy person!!! The only time that I heard you talk was when we saw each other at the parking area. After that, you were all smiles. (Ang hinhin mo pala?) I hope you’ll use my gift to you. I tried looking for the mug and coaster but they said it has been phased out. So I thought of buying you a mug and GC. Btw, sorry if I didn’t buy the first two on your wishlist. I never tried buying over at multiply eh.

Mai – actually I think you are as chatty as the others. It’s just that Asher is still a baby and was having tantrums. (Di ka lang makaporma.)

Alpha – I thought you are pretty in pictures. I didn’t know you are so much prettier in person!!! (Kaya naman pala ayaw magpakita. Ma-starstruck naman nga tayo.) Btw, special thanks to Jojo for the directions. I was shy to thank him in person. Naks.

Kathy – all I could remember is the purple headband! So kikay! What you are on your blog was what I saw. But like Mai, I think you are chattier talaga than you were that day. Nahiya ka ba? Thanks for the Dora hanky that Mikee got.

I think the next EB (hopefully with the other Bebots too) should be a coffee meet-up for more chika.

Well, the other ladies, I’ve met before.

Abie, thank you so much for the bangle and bracelet. Honestly, the BBB made me so happy. I bet Howell caught that in pictures.

Aggie, thank you so much for the flash cards. I saw those while looking for Joaqui’s gifts. I was supposed to buy those too for Mikee. I just thought I’ll buy them na lang next payday. (The parties made a hole on my pocket hehehe) Good thing I didn’t. And good thing you did! Thanks!

(Note: si Aggie ay super madaldal na tao. sa totoo lang, hindi pa nga sya napakwento that night. Abangan nyo sa next EB natin.)

Peachy, I hope Joaqui likes the books. btw, nanganak ka na?

Joy, super thanks for organizing this party. (I was just scared of the hotel though. I woke up at 3am and can’t sleep till 6am. Then I decided I don’t want to live in a condo. Hahaha. I was freaking out.) The food was great! We had a blast.

Here are the pics (I grabbed from Kathy’s flickr). Tignan nyo si Peachy, parang hindi buntis no?:

First, I never liked being dependent on anybody. Yes, I think it’s sweet to be a bit dependent on your spouse sometimes. It’s one way to make the other feel important. It’s a sweet gesture especially even if the other knows that you can survive on your own. But when it comes to other people, I don’t. When I say other people, it means people who are not family or close friends.

I haven’t scrapped yet simply because I am still waiting for the “better” pictures taken by hubby’s teammates. Of course, these people are back to work and too busy to even download the pictures from their camera, much more to upload them online. I understand completely.

This is the reason why I want to buy our DSLR soon. Palusot pa ‘no?

I finally figured out what I did from Monday to Thursday this week that I don’t normally do. The reason I wanted to know was because I’m trying to figure out what’s causing the migraines. As much as I wanted that it is pregnancy, it is not.

It’s just CAFFEINE! Well, more like lack of it. It has been part of my daily morning routine to drink coffee. But this week, I skipped breakfast unintentionally, thus, skipped coffee too.

Speaking of furniture, I’d like to share something. I’m not sure if I should because, I’m not an English teacher. In fact, I am an engineer (computer) and it is quite expected that we, engineers are bad in English. Anyway, I still want to, and this is my blog.

Furniture, in its plural form is “pieces of furniture”. Never say “furnitures” because there’s no such word. Same with equipment and jewelry, say “pieces of equipment” or “pieces of jewelry”.

That’s it. I am no expert. In fact, I committed several grammar mistakes myself while blogging. I simply shared. I just had to.

I have finalized the color combination that I wanted for bloggerhappy. Although, I’m not yet convinced the neon green on this blog’s theme should be final. I’m still looking for some other shades of this green. Maybe lighter. I’ll change it when I get the time again.

This might be surprising but I used 3 shades of purple on everydaychi. Not that I hate purple. I just think it’s not my color. But lately, I realized I am attracted to purple leather (read: love love the Coach bags), thus, the purple theme.

Geez, got nothing else to blog. Spent all my extra time creating the themes today. Hehehe.

I’ve been wanting to buy a new digicam. And just this morning, Abie told me her brother is selling one. So I asked the specs and inclusions and so convinced that finally, I’m getting one. But when I asked hubby if we could buy in advance, (original plan is to buy this coming December) he said we should stick to our plan.

Waaaaah!!!
