Here’s what I’m about to share!

Because BPI wants you to

There will be a BIG OUTLET SALE here —>

If you’re fond of these branded apparels, cosmetics, appliance and gadgets . Well, you are just lucky because today, 21 Nov (Friday) until 23 Nov 2008 (Sunday), they are giving you up to 80% discount of their wares! Isn’t that grand? With your Christmas bonus at hand, you can now shop at great bargain!

Plan your day today. Quality work then when the clock strikes 5, to the door you go! Ep, ep, ep..don’t forget to take with the a printed map of the sale location. You wouldn’t want to get lost don’t you?

For non-BPI cardholders, you have to pay P50 and pay your purchases with cash. That’s the downside if you are a Citibank or AMEX credit cardholder. You pay cash but then, at least, you do not have to worry about your next month’s credit card billing statement because you’ve paid it in cold cash!

Again, I won’t be able to join you guys with the shopping for my weekends are always full. Sheesh! I always miss these kind of fun events!

P.S. Better read the promo mechanics if you’re going to this SALE.

Thinking so hard on what I really want in life aside from being a mother to my 2 wonderful boys and a wife to my one and only HubbyBubbly, I got HB’s success journal as my guide.  Here’s his general outline:

1. Spiritual Life
2. Family Life
3. Work Life
4. Financial Life
5. Physical Life
6. Emotional Life
7. Intellectual Life

I will follow these list and try to focus what I really want to achieve by year 2009.

• Spiritual Life
  • I would like to pray more deeply to God.
  • I want to join a church choir.  Yikes! Did I just share that to you guys?  I’m not a great singer but I love to sing songs (especially lively praise songs!) although I’m not too familiar with so many songs especially now that we barely listen to the radio and do not watch television anymore.
• Family Life
  • I want to be an organized mom so I can serve my family good and healthy yummy home cooked meals (but of course, we would still go out to eat or else OAP would be doomed!), play with 2 growing boys, complete AD’s blog and AD&JX albums and fix all clutter around the house.
  • Provide a good homeschool curriculum for our son.
  • To be a submissive wife to my husband.  Hahaha This would really make him happy.  I remembered that this was part of our wedding vows!
• Work Life
  • 100% support to HB.
• Financial Life
  • Think and re-think when buying things especially if it is not vital to our living conditions.
• Physical Life
  • What else but to loose these flabs hanging around for a year!
  • Be aggressive to start hobby like my HB!
• Emotional Life
  • To be cool at all times.
  • Be happy with our lives.
  • Strengthen family ties.
  • Allot a time for myself as in totally alone in a quiet place and not alone in a mall or wherever that has so many distractions.
• Intellectual Life
  • Read books to stimulate my brains (ooopppss, it’s not what you are thinking!).

Phew!  I think this is it for the meantime! So many goals with little time, but I really do hope I can achieve it before 2009 ends!

Thanks to Manuel and Avalon for doing this great exercise for all of us!  An early New Year’s resolution for those who joined!

So!  This is my official entry to Moleskine Philippines Giveaway.  I do hope to win the P1,200 moleskin notebook!

Our boy, AD is one brave boy.  I was quite hesitant to let him ride the 380meter zipline with us but he insisted.  I had to make sure that he really wanted to do it.  And he said, YES.  He thought it would be fun.  Yes, I think he had fun but it also scared him.  Just look at the above photo op moment.  Now, he knew what situation he entered into but cannot back out anymore. I was afraid for him that he would back out at the last minute that I cannot do anything to stop us from flying.  While flying, I was waiting for him to cry but I heard none.  Boy, AD sure was brave for that few seconds of us flying out there!  I didn’t hear anything from him (He was shocked to even do something!).  I just hope he was able to look around while he was being the SuperBoy.

This was how we returned to our starting point ~ via cable lift!  I would prefer to ZIP back than to ride this cable car.  More fun to be zipped back faster but then, you wouldn’t be able to really enjoy the greens surrounding Camp Sabros.  It sure was fun to have zipped from here and there and everywhere!  Can’t wait for the longer zipline of Camp Sabros!  Yes, those are pine trees which Mr. Edwin Sakdalan, owner of Camp Sabros, planted years ago.   Boy, I forgot to bring my jacket so I was almost freezing out there.  It was like being in Baguio!  It was soo cold!  And we were there till past 4pm!  So just imagine the cold and windy weather with just that nursing blouse on! Bbrrrr!!!!

Price for this ride is only P150/ head.  The ride includes a 380meter tandem ride and a cable lift.

I’ve got a confession to make…I was only supposed to get this ride and I’m done (my excuse was to be with JX and AD)!  But after the tandem ride, I can’t wait to go on my 2nd longer zipline ride!   Zippity zoe!  Here I go!

More ziplining adventures on my next entries….

Please take me home, KELLY.

Here’s Kelly’s winning entry:

On those days when just staying in bed curled up with a book and a cup of hot cocoa seems so perfect, I sometimes can’t help but always try to get out of the house to walk a short distance amidst puddles, greenery, and quaint houses to my grandparents’ home for coffee and pastries. The visit sometimes prompts a mini-reunion with other relatives who live some houses away. And who says all footwear will have to be left outside the door? Muddy and slightly chilled, we all file into the lanai and enjoy each others’ company and the simple food.

CONGRATULATIONS to Kelly!  I will email you in a bit to get your information on where we will deliver the Plueys.  To all who also participated, I’ll be needing your address so we can ship your discount coupon!

Thank you to all who joined the Plueys contest!

Ahh….AD’s enjoying the party!  Now, he’s really a grown up…participating in the parlor games.

The boat is sinking….group yourself into 3!  I can see the excitement in AD’s face as he panics and looks around…waiting to be hugged by the older kids and be grouped with them.  Just look at his face…He was happy!

Proud to be part of a team.  I forgot what game they were playing.  They lost but it was okay.  At least, AD got to join..and still get a prize!  He excitedly open the prizes he got and later on, forgets about them…until now.

Longest line of coins…Again, they lost!  I didn’t bring any bag with me because it might get lost.  I was carrying JX so my attention would just be diverted so I decided just to bring the kids’ bag.  I did not contribute a coin!  I was disappointed with myself as AD was scampering and looking for a coin I can give him.  My HB neither had any coins in his pocket.  It was nice of my couple friends, X&J, to give him a few coins so he can “give” something to the group.  Thank you X&J for being a very considerate parents to my son, AD.  I was really touched because instead of giving it all to their daughter, they shared some coins to my son.
