My First Baby Shower!

0 comments
The husband and wife and the soon-to-be parents of Lucas Miguel Torres.

Me and Mhe: Loves!
I missed you! You look so pretty being preggy. :)

It was not my baby shower. It was my high school friend and my Loves', Mary Rose Sunga Torres, with her soon-to-be-delivered baby, Lucas Miguel Torres. The Miguel of course came from the husband's name cos she wanted a Miguel also. I'm not sure about the Lucas part though.

It was nice seeing some old faces from high school cos I don't get to hang out with them often. Plus, it was super nice also cos last night was the first time I got to attend a baby shower. LOL!

Mhe and Migby looks so cute and sweet together. I now wanna husband! Hahahaha! 

Can't wait for next month for the baby to pop out of that tummy of yours Loves! Make sure to text me and all of us WHILE you're giving birth! Hahahaha!

Take care!!

Fun Fun Night.

0 comments

I had a fun fun night last night with some of my LCC grade school friends. After 9 years of not seeing each other, we decided to plan a get together for all of us and even though we were only 14 (we were supposed to be 20 plus if complete) we still had a blast reminiscing about our grade school days.

I hope to see you all again soon!

Survival Tips for the Jobless.

0 comments
It's been almost a week since I've last posted something here and I am soooo sorry. My mind's not been handling 2 paid to posts well that's why my blog has to suffer. I won't let that happen again. I'm going to balance things from now on.

And to start my new blogging life, I am going to share what one need to survive being a bum / unemployed person / newly graduate from college based on my own experience.

Survival Tips (or whatever you want to call yours) for the Jobless (as of the moment):

1. Make sure you have stocked up your favorite movies and TV series in your room. Trust me, you wouldn't be going out in a while.
Here are some of the TV series I've finished in a span of 6 months:
- House Seasons 1-4
- Grey's Anatomy
- One Tree Hill
- CSI
- CSI: NY
- CSI: Miami
- Desperate Housewives
- Chuck
- Heroes
- Prison Break
- Gossip Girl
and I'm currently starting to watch 24.

2. DSL connection is a must if you don't want to die of boredom, literally. Facebook and Multiply help a lot.

3. Your parents may or may not give you allowance already, making your budget kind of tight, you could try joining paid to post communities like what I did. The money may not be as good as a monthly salary but it's good enough for just staying online and posting ideas and reviews. PM me if interested.

4. Please, go out at least once a week. Call a friend or all your friends and grab a drink or two or watch movies or just hang out somewhere else. You'll get tired of seeing the four corners of your house and your own room if you stay in there for a week straight.

5. When you're at home (which is most likely to happen), move around. Don't just sit or lie around watching the WHOLE DAY. Not cool. You will feel more lazy than you feel you already are. Reach for the remote yourself, get a glass of water yourself, clean your own room, just move. If you can, walk or jog around your village/subdivision, exercise.

6. ENJOY the time you have for yourself cos you won't be able to do so when you get a job. I believe in that one. Have fun, rest, meditate, whatever you like do it already cos when work starts, you'll have less time for leisure and total peace of mind.

Well at least that what I do for survival but most of the time I focus on number 3. It's so much fun posting your reviews and seeing your earnings go up every day. I'm saving it up for my Christmas gift for myself.

By the way, I got this idea from a friend, Carlota. :)

I hope this list helped in any way. This is also a part of my survival. Blabbing, I mean, Blogging. Hahaha! 

Lemme know whatya think?

My Current Addiction.

2 comments
I got so depressed yesterday when I went to Megamall to pick up my Peking Duck at Maxim's well, not because of the Duck but because of the gym that I passed by BEFORE Maxim's. I've been thinking about going to the gym since summer but I didn't actually thought of really going and yesterday, I paid half of the amount already and just when I stepped out of the gym I regretted my decision mainly because I don't have gym outfits and it'll destroy my budget for Christmas with all the monthly bills that I'm paying and to think that I am UNEMPLOYED at the moment.

So, that's how my current addiction (as of yesterday) started. I was thinking of ways to earn some money to add up for my monthly gym fees, DSL bill and Globe bill without spending all of my allowance  cos I'm actually shy to ask my older brother for an increase and I'm already a college graduate so I have to budget my allowance and find ways to earn extra while waiting for my final job interview. 

I am already a member of a paid to post community which pays you $.02-$.05 or even higher for every quality post you make, discussions you start or responses/comments posted. If you want to sign-up feel free to click here: MYLOT. If you have questions, leave a comment below.
I've been a member of that community for more than a year now. If you want to join, leave a comment below and I'll discuss my cash incentives for you.

But that's not all, I've also signed up for CIAO last night and I'm currently addicted to it. All you have to do is write reviews for products, movies, tv series and almost anything that sells, and you get paid for it. 

I have to go do some more typing and see where this goes!

Choose?

0 comments
These pumps aren't much, they're simple yet classy and I know I could use them whether in corporate attire or casual outfit. Can't choose though. I'm just going to have my friend buy it. 


Black..?

or Stainless Steel?

Whatcha think?

Happy Birthday Jiggy.

0 comments
Happy 21st birthday Jiggyboy!
The birthday celebrant posing with his giveaway look-a-likes. :)

Well, belated that is.

We celebrated one of my college friend's birthday last night at Fish&Co. in Shangri-La Mall. Great food but too bad we were only 8 including the birthday celebrant. His mom reserved the whole first floor for the "surprise" party with a minimum of 30 pax and only 7 of us showed up. I felt kind of sad the surprise didn't go too well. It could have been more fun if we were at least 15. It was almost a reunion for us. Anyway, there were many left-overs since it was buffet so, his mom let us take home all of it. Divided by 5.

I hope next party at least half of the invited could make it.

Hugs,
Mara

3 movies in 4 days.

0 comments
Not bad, huh?

Mirrors last Wednesday.
Mag-ingat ka sa...Kulam last Friday.
Eagle Eye yesterday (Saturday).

All of them movies are good except for the local movie, Kulam. My friend and I just laughed while watching it but there really are some scenes that almost gave me a heart attack! LOL.

While watching the trailers, I can't wait to see these:

Nights in Rodanthe
Fast and the Furios
The Strangers
House Bunny

I know, Fast and the Furious won't be until next year but I hope the other 3 would be sometime this year. I remember watching the trailer for Happy Feet for a while and then it showed after almost a year. Tsk.

Mirrors.

0 comments

I'm back from watching Mirrors earlier with Cathy. The movie was okay. Although it wasn't as scary as I expected it to be. The story was good but I don't think I can say the same for the actors. There are some scenes that are dull and boring. I loved the ending though.
