looking backwards and forward

today, nothing unusual or special happened... just like my day yesterday and what will be tomorrow. as long as i am here in this job, nothing special would appear from nowhere. only miracles can change things, i guess.

i can't help but take the ride again... it's weird. yes, it is! for there's not so much to look back for. maybe i refuse to look back... hmmm... i'm beginning to sound like i hated my past soo much. please don't get me wrong. i am okay. life is okay. perhaps, it's the weather that's bringing the mood. aaaw! and our upcoming wedding anniversary. no matter how lightly i take it, i feel swirling and twisting in my stomach. pain reminds me that i should come up with a plan or at least, list down the things that i should do on the "A" day. aaahck! how do i plan? how can i plan? i'm freakin' broke! haha! wish me luck!

i see hubby... his face is always shining. it's sweet... it keeps me going. everyday...

greeting cards exchange

i am very excited about our postcards exchange in our MAF community! last week, i got my first one from USA and my next one will be from Sweden. wow! my so-called online friends are real! haha!i never thought that i'd be able to make friends for real with people whom i just met in an online community. it's very exciting for me! in return, i'm giving away cute holiday season cards and some bookmarks which i have been collecting since i don't know when... all my bookmarks are from Papemelroti. and you can view their cute bookmarks here. sorry guys! i can't post pics right now. my cam's batteries need replacements. aaaw! and i just don't have the moolah yet! geez! anyway, if anyone out there who's interested to trade postcards/greeting cards with me, send me your details here: asteroid24@ymail.com and leave a comment in this post. i promise to reply as soon as i can. i will be sending all of them before the month ends.

this will be a fun experience for us! ^_^ it's fun to be real friends!

wow! what happened?

oh yes! after a long hiatus... i'm back!!! long hiatus??? haha! my internet was busted! that's why i wasn't able to visit and reply to your comments... oh i'm really sorry... to those who have left comments and followed me through MBC, thanks a lot! i really appreciate it. i promise to post ASAP! i am still having a hard time dealing with my students and their over-supportive parents! things are really getting wild! anyway, i hope you can all still wait for my next post. and i'm really sorry for the delays of comment approval. i'll drop by again tonight and see what i can do.

million thanks to all of you, my dear 78 followers!!! ^_^ mmmuah!

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday

ok, before the Halloween began (Oct 30), my daughter and my niece participated in their little UN Day celeb at school. oh, i just love those kids' costumes!!!


the next day (Oct 31), a typhoon visited ph AGAIN! see the damage?

(this girl won the best costume award)

had i been so prepared, my son could've won too!
(this always gives me the creeps!)

AND look at my vamp in Facebook,
(her name is AUDRINA)

my Mandy's set of costume is complete! whoohoo! just in time!


ever wonder what i wore for this event? here... (oh please, control your fart! lmao! ^_^)

ciao!

can't help it

this is supposed to be a photo of DH. but something else caught my attention.


this...



i want!

i'm sorry... am just a girl. ^_^

moments

me and my ADJ2...

i so love this pic.

happy-sad-happy October

i have been waiting for this time for so long... i'm on vacay!!! yay! ^_^ since it's time for the Halloween Break (or more known here as Semestral Break), our school held a costume party for the kids before the school is off. it may seem a bit early but, we figured that there'd be no other chance than this day. (the classes will resume on the 4th of Nov - eeeeep!)

all the kids who attended the party had fun with their loots and donned around their cute and creative costumes.


of course, i brought my daughters along so they can also join in the fun. they wore costumes that i just dug up from my "jungle". AD (my youngest) wore her old little devil costume. geez! i forgot to take pics of her! anyway, ADJ2 (my eldest daughter) agreed to wear the wings and the old tutu so she can look like a fairy. a dark fairy! *wink!* OMG! it was only then that i realized how much she has grown! i might have been oblivious to the fact that she's growing up. and my heart aches at the thought... she's turning into a young lady. how fast! and sometimes, i find it hard to admit. but, what can i do? and because of this feeling, i sometimes hate the fact that i am a mom. aaaarrrgh!
(my ADJ2... she's turning 9 this year)

i too got so thrilled for this event... i brought packs of goodies that i can give away to the kids. i put on a mask that i designed myself and my lolita headpiece... (finally got the chance to wear it)
(yep! it is me!)

but after the party, DH and i would still have to travel to pay our last respects to our friend's mom who died 2 days ago... it was a sad news. i feel sorry for our friend... and i'm sorry to say this, but as soon as i heard from DH that we are going, i just got so excited! it means that i can go shopping at the bargain district of manila. wow! and it would also mean that i will sleep on the floors of their office. ssssh! DH is on a grave yard shift. ^_^

the next morning, i woke up early. i plan to take some photos but the scene isn't quite appealing. actually i did but i only took a few shots thinking that i should share them to you...


there...

my feet were very tired but delighted at the same time. i was able to wander again and it really helped me feel better. i kinda forgot the pressures of my day job. i still hold on to what i've said before... i just need a little getting used to.



btw, Happy Halloween to all of you!!! ^_^ we'd still go trick or treatin' tomorrow night. so, i'll be back for more pics... keep safe, gurls!
