Something Purple




exciting week.

I am an avid follower of Susan Miller’s Astrology Zone since January 2010. I even have her iPhone app with daily horoscope etc…installed. (more…)


lazy cat

This weekend had been one of the best weekends of my life, you know why? Because I allowed myself to be very lazy, doing nothing but eat and catch up with movies and tv series.  (more…)


seafood overload

I may have been on a diet too long (not to mention self-control and pigging out deprivation :P ) that when the husbo invited me for an eat-all-you-can-seafood for dinner yesterday, I did not hesitate and forgot all about the lost pounds hee hee. (more…)


NYC, after 2 months.

I am hoping to visit NYC for the 2nd time around this year. This time, I plan to visit this ultra-cool furniture store that has modern couches which we fail to check when we were there in May. Also, I am hoping to be able to meet friends who are based in NYC. Yes, a more relaxed trip this time.

And because of this, I thought of sharing some spots a tourist should go to when in NYC. Feel free to add yours to my list, I would highly appreciate it :) .

Yesterday, I was able to catch up with my favorite Aunt. We had a good and long conversation over the phone while she was on her way to meet her date :P and me while finishing my housechores. (more…)


100+F.

GAH!
This got to be the hottest Summer I have experienced here. I always tell my mom that Summer here is extremely different with the hottest Season of my home country. The humidity, the dry air and simply just the scorching heat would drain all your energies coupled with an extremely painful migraine. My hair is so dry and my skin so wrinkly whenever I go out! I could finish all those popsies in a minute just to combat the heat. But hey, I heard this Girard Perregaux watch is cool that it actually tells the temperature hmmm!


last 6 and road to INSANITY.

AM I READY FOR THIS?

When I  shared some of my recent photos with friends, they called me “PAYATOT”! (they thought I took reading sensa reviews seriously).

I have never heard of that word, for quite some time hee hee. And yes, bragging-aside, I have to admit that word seems like music to my ears.

Surprise, surprise!
When I checked my weight, I lost a whopping 12 lbs! Not only that, I tried on the jeans and slacks which were size 0-2 and have been kept for many years in my closet, they now fit me! I guess my dieting is paying off coupled with these 30-day Shred workout and LOSE IT iPhone App contributed to my almost 6-month weight loss challenge. I just need to continue this discipline and maybe add a more rigid workout routine because the toning part is the hardest to do.

I have 6 more lbs to go till I reach my wedding weight and I hope that in 2 months, I’ll shed them off. I am currently bidding on this Insanity 60-Day Workout Challenge Video at EBay. I have read and heard of great reviews about this 13-DVD workout video. I truly hope I can commit to it and eventually tone my arms and flatten my tummy. Wish me luck!


major clean-up

As I was doing my general cleaning yesterday, I realized that our refrigerator filter needs replacement. (more…)


news.

Going through the Sunday paper, I cannot help but feel for the victims of those exposed in Chemicals leading them to get Mesothelioma treatment. (more…)


no more.

I cannot classify DH as a chain smoker even back in his smoking days. He used to smoke occasionally but still not enough to call him a chain smoker.  (more…)
