Eat Right!

February 8th, 2009

I have been extra picky with food these days and I’m trying my ‘darnest’ best to curb this.  Of all the times I need to eat right, now is the time to do so.    So, what I try to do is every bit of urge to eat, whether late at night or just as when I’m ready to sleep, I grab something quick and easy to snack on.  I don’t know how long this will last but I won’t need Fentraphen in the horizon.

Spruce Up Your Home

February 8th, 2009

There are many ways on how to create a relaxing environment at home. Aside from keeping things clean around the house, the color scheme used for pillows, curtains or walls adds to the ‘mood’ of the room/s. Then, if you’re up to it, fragrant candles can be added. These days there are lots of fragrances ranging from lavender to fruity scents. Paired with nice Votive candle holders for example, they will surely liven up the home.

Lovin' My Mac

February 3rd, 2009

It’s been a little over a week since we bought my Imac.  And to date, I’m loving it soooo much!  I told the husband that I’m being very dependent on it.  I’m using Stickies for my daily reminders — where I put short lists of what to buy, people I need to get in touch with, the works!  Also the iCal — calendar app, iMovie and a lot more! I also like it that it’s a whole lot easier for me to update my online photo albums and of course, my blogs.

I still need an updated Photoshop CS3 or 4 software though.  And that my friends, tops the list of my to-buy!  More updates about ‘Makoy’ (my beloved imac) soon.

Be Heard

February 2nd, 2009

I have posted on this blog earlier about my liking for the show The View.  During the height of the US elections, the hosts covered the most controversial issues that surrounded the four candidates.  The good part is that the five hosts were able to voice their opinions openly but with tact and sensibility.  On the world wide web, there’s a space dedicated for sharing views and takes on political discussions.  It’s intriguing to say the least, and I’m going to hop over it now to find out.

WordPress Theme Search

February 2nd, 2009

Since last week, I spent about an hour a day at least to search for a wordpress theme to replace what I have on my other blog.  I almost gave up yesterday when I saw HappyBlogDesign.  What I like most about the site is that, it’s not a typical repository of templates but only those that are really good (both in the coding and design) are included in the list.  It’s a matter of choosing what fits your liking rather than  spending extra time testing the theme and making sure that the codes work.  Thanks Ms Fath, the Malaysian lady behind the wonderful WP Theme website.

Our Home

February 2nd, 2009

We received confirmation that the three boxes of personal effects we left in Manila have been airlifted to Sydney. We are now waiting for the call from the airline so that we can arrange for pick-up. But before it arrives, we are planning to get new cabinets because the rooms in the house have small built-in closets and cabinets. Otherwise, our rooms will look like a department store with racks upon racks of clothes, shoes and what not. If we chance upon good discount quality furniture like Lexington furniture, we just might opt to get wooden and not plastic cabinets.
