I am alive!

A lot has happened since my last blogpost.

As you know, I am more visible in twitter. It is easier to write 180 characters of nonsense ramblings. But my husband reminded me to update my blog because a "few" people still find my humor entertaining. (This will not be a funny post though. Hehe)

So.. updates.

1. I am now working in a sportsbetting company based in Europe. My time is more flexible and I am not as busy as before. Plus, the pay is really good!

2. My lil girl is about to go to school this June. She has been attending "practice" classes during the weekends and my oh my, Lil Lily can adapt so well. Her teachers gave us really good feedback. They said that she's friendly, artistic and can communicate very well for her age.

3. My husband and I decided to buy a property last weekend. We are all excited about that. We're about to sign more paperwork this coming Saturday. God has been very good to us. 2012 is my year!

4. I am preparing for my trip to Sweden and London. I heard that the average temp this March is around 0-2 degress celsius. Coming from a tropical country like PH, I think I will be in BIG trouble. My coats and jackets are not as thick as they should be to survive such temperature. Plus, I need a lot of moisturizer to keep my skin from drying up. Hello DOVE products!

5. My new found happiness - Tony Moly products. They're the bomb especially the tomatox line! You should try it! My daughter uses Human Heart Nature products and they're very good too!

There. I hope I can find something funny to post tomorrow.

Bed Weather Songs!

Most people I know listen to ballads and romantic songs during rainy days. I don't. Instead, I listen to sultry sexy songs. No, I am not a fan of songs with too much profanity except for Damien Rice' Rootless Tree.

It has been raining in the past 3 days here in Manila and I have the perfect playlist for the perfect bed weather. Too bad, office work is not canceled amidst the bed bad weather.

1. Bed by J Holiday - I LOOOOOVE this song! It makes you grind!
2. Body Bumpin' by Public Announcement - CLASSIC! Been listening to this song since the 90's!
3. Can You Handle It by Usher - Usher has a lot of Rated PG songs. This is one of my favorites!
4. Sweet Sexy Thing by NU Flavor - Who doesn't love this song?????
5. Get It On Tonite by Montell Jordan - Montell Jordan is hotttt!



Stay safe everyone.

Love,
Me

Trying

If you've noticed, I've been trying to update this blog with nonsense posts lately. It was not like my blog in Multiply where a lot of things were happening to me on a daily basis hence, the daily updates.

I describe my life as domesticated. Though I used to hate routines, I have already accepted that being a mother/wife/workaholic, routines are inevitable.

I've said it before, and I'm going to say it again, it is not easy to run a household. Hats off to all full time mothers who do not have helpers at home. You are amazing! AMAZING!

I think I will end this post now, because I don't know what to write anymore. I hope that my blogging juices will be available tomorrow so I can write something sensible. Hehe.

Oh, its a rainy Tuesday. Be safe!

Love love,
Me

Weightless

So I made a life changing decision last week. I am excited and, well sad at the same time. But I am looking forward to new beginnings, new experiences, new challenges and new friends. I have been listening to Nada Surf's weightless since last week.

Aug 18. I AM SO READY FOR YOU!!!!

I am grateful to all my friends, my mom, my sister and my husband for being supportive. I feel blest.

Anyare of the Day

Well I got the title of this blog post from Saab Magalona's blog.

GOOD NEWS! We have already launched our store, ThriftShopManila. Jing and I are so thankful with the overwhelming response that we have received!!!!!!

The "Anyare of the Day" is.. we are almost sold out!!!! We have underestimated our capabilities! We shopped for a conservative number of clothes thinking that we will be able to sell them in a week. BUT NO!!! We are almost sold out. It has only been 2 days.

Waaah, we need to source for new items asap to sustain our momentum. God help my schedule.

Don't get me wrong, I am very much happy with the outcome. Everything is so unexpected. Thank you!!!

Please keep visiting the site and we will update the racks as soon as we can.

I still love you,
Me!!! :x

A Thrift Store

So my dear friend Jing and I will be venturing into something exciting in the coming weeks. We've been friends since Sophomore year in college and we share our love for anything fashionable and cheap.

My love for thrift shops was so evident when I was in College. But when I have started working, I found no time to grace the racks of these quirky stores anymore. Jing on the other hand has collected tons of clothes from stores as far as Davao, Commonwealth, Los Banos, Tagaytay and Surigao. She is just so patient to find the most bongga dresses, skirts and tops. I admire her.

Last week, we decided to start a small online store. We hope to launch it within the month. We just need a few more days to setup the website, to post the stuff that we're selling and voila, you can buy something from our online store.

I hope you guys will support it.

I am so excited.

I'm Back (I hope)

How many times do I have to promise my readers and followers (which are not a lot though) that I will blog again. I tell you, twitter has drained my blogging juices. I'm sure that if I were to consolidate all my tweets in a day, I would come up with a blog post each day. But I find twitter a little more convenient given that I think I'm busy.

blah blah blah.

So, okay, this post will be random. As much as I wanted to tell you a lot of stories, I am running out of words to write.

Whatever.

So if you are still interested with anything that I say follow me on twitter, @bonsuplada.

I promise to try and update this blog every other day!!

Love,
Me

On Self Control

There were reasons why I have avoided controlled watching TV series for 4 years. The last time I got hooked was when I was still in college. I would skip classes. I would not mind skipping even the crucial classes. (Comsci crap)

I remember getting hooked to Desperate Housewives, Prison Break, My Name is Earl and Sex and the City. I can finish 8-50 min or 12 -25 min episodes in a day without a meal.






Even during crunch times (Read: Thesis days), I would spend 6-7 hours watching. The rest of the day I would cram to make my program work in between meals, debate competitions and dinner dates with my buds. No wonder I slept 3 hours max during my Junior and Senior years in school. I did not drink nor party. I was boring like dut. Okay?


(Jing, Please send me some of our old photos so I can include them here. :S)

So now, I am back and addicted to 2 TV Series. I am hooked. I eat my baon in front of my laptop while watching during weekdays. On weekends, the moment Lily goes to sleep, I would watch several episodes until 2-3 AM.

Chuck and The Mentalist. YOU ARE ADDICTING!







And yes, Parick Jane, I will leave my husband just to be with you. JEJE.


What's your favorite TV show?
