Our Advance Christmas Gift...

We received already our advance christmas gifts. It is such a delight that all things worked out well in our favor. God is so good! It is indeed a blessing. Click here to know what it is all about.

More on Cash Advance...

I have been posting regarding payday loan and I have mastered already what is it all about. Nevertheless, I got interested about information on these matters. Cash Advance are the fastest way to obtain secure, online cash with such an easy application. I think something like this would be beneficial to those who are in need of emergency cash. Application usually doesn't need documents to fax. Once approved, the money will be electronically deposited to the borrower's checking or savings account. TrustSource.org actually list sites that have been reviewed and ranked by people who used the payday loans sites already. Most of these cash advance sites offer flexible payment options and discrete services that gets you the money to the borrower right away. In the site, one can view the ratings of this cash advance sites and can even rank the site themselves. I just wonder is there's something like this in our country. I think it would also be of great help to those who working individuals who might need cash advance to meet both ends in between salary date. I guess borrowing money is really not bad as long as one takes responsibility about it. It should always coupled with right attitude and commitment to an obligation.

What's happening?

What a freaking day!!!!

What's happening to our country?

Came from Rustan's Makati because of a photo shoot for a magazine, then Glorietta closed up at 4pm so we were rushed to finish the shoot. Then heard in the radio in my car that an APC broke in the lobby of Peninsula Manila. What a F***!!!

I was freaking out! Super affected ako...waaah!

Because we got married in this hotel. So that makes it my favorite hotel.

Super sayang ang lobby! Newly renovated pa naman :-(

What's the problem with these people? Can't they just fight their own battle, rather than mangdamay pa!

***Can you imagine??!! There's a wedding in the hotel supposedly tonight! Kawawa naman diba? And I'm helping a coordinator friend who has an event in the hotel also on saturday to look for alternative reception venue for her couple! The bride is just crying :-( These couples should triple charge Trillanes for the cost of their whole wedding!!!
There are little concerns also re my wedding tomorrow because of this happening. Well, a number of guests are cancelling attendance and delivery issues of the suppliers to the venue tonight! Though it's in Roxas Boulevard but curfew will strike this midnight! And most of the suppliers are setting up in the venue this midnight! HAY!

Bianca's Birthday

An overdue post re the birthday party story, suppliers list and pictures from Bianca's 1st Birthday last November 3, 2007 are posted here.

Hope you can visit my other home.

On Yayas...

I got a text message yesterday from the yaya of Bianca asking if she can come back by 2nd week of January. Of course, I said yes. This made me happy. She's supposed to finish her care-giving course in the province but there were some family issues (daw) according to her when she arrived there 2 weeks ago. Apparently, she said "hirap daw talaga buhay sa probinsya!" so she would rather go back to us. I really like her cause she's very hands-on to Bianca. As mentioned, she finished high school and took care-giver course afterwards. Practicum na lang ang kulang. I told her that we would openly welcome her back. I'm glad for this news. If she would really push through with us, we would end up having 3 yaya/maids, aside from the one who does our laundry and ironing! Hay, soaring household expenses but I don't really mind at all. I'd rather have this set-up rather than having troubles finding one again. By the way, the two other yayas from agency are doing good so far. I think my novenas regarding yayas are working well! Hehehe.

Margaux's Field Trip (2nd Part)

Next pit stop is Kalesa ride in Tiendesitas. When we arrived in the venue, the horses were still given their baths so we decided to just have lunch first. After eating, the kids enjoyed hanging around and playing within the area.

With Yanna, her classmate...
Running around...
Her teacher said she's fond with Yanna recently, this picture shows it...

Holding hands pa...

Joined by other boys classmates...
Margaux was amazed with the kalesa ride but wasn't really fond with the smell of the horse! (even bagong paligo!) hehehe...

I just enjoy moments like these...

Sports in Europe

One of my ultimate goals is to travel to Europe. There are just so many things to do in that continent. Aside from its romantic cities, I would also like to try other adventures that it could offer. I think if given a chance, I would really want to catch some Formula 1 Tickets to witness such an exciting race. The European Grand Prix is an action packed adventure for the whole family. There is a Spanish Grand Prix that happens in the beautiful surroundings of Barcelona. There is also the luxurious surroundings of Monte Carlo at the Monaco Grand Prix. There is also the Belgian Grand Prix and the British Grand Prix. Just choosing from one of these races will definitely be a great steal for a European tour. And where else to get tickets for these than Viagogo.co.uk. It is the leading ticket hub in Europe. What's good about the site is that matches buyers and sellers of concert tickets, sports tickets, theatre tickets and more.

But I'm sure Dicky would also love to check out the British Open so these Golf Tickets are also available online from Viagogo.co.uk. Tennis is also such a popular sports in Europe. So it would also be a good choice to watch the Wimbledon. Tennis Tickets to this event really get to be booked in advance. I am keeping in mind the site as it would definitely be a great help for a future European tour.

Margaux's Field Trip (1st Part)

So the fieldtrip last friday pushed through. We rode the LRT from Santolan Station up to Gateway. Margaux together with her classmates enjoyed the train ride. Cameras are not allowed pala inside the station, but i was so pasaway to catch some snapshots still.

Look at Margaux inserting her card...

I have to also snag her LRT card...hehehe, didn't slip the last one...hehehe. I'm keeping it as a souvenir! Pathetic no?! Hahaha :-)

I'll post the pictures from Tiendesitas next...

Papa Paolo!

I almost forgot to post about this...

He was the reception host on our wedding last November 10 (Navarro-Puno wedding). He's a hunk and smells good! Bwahahaha!

But the best thing, he was a very good host!

I'm a jetsetter wannabe...

If you read my other site, I have indicated in my about page that I'm a jetsetter wannabe. I want to travel, and travel and travel! Yes, that's one of my ultimate dreams. One of the countries I want to visit will be Costa Rica. I have learned that the country offers great adventures for travellers. I have searched the internet and found out about Costa Rica Hotel Reviews. I am particularly interested about Hacienda Pinilla which is a luxury resort that features colonial architectural designs. In the website, you can also be updated with the latest Costa Rica News. Travel to this country could be something different for the usual traveller.

Busy with blogging...

Thanks for all those who visited my new site. Thanks for linking it up too. I don't have plans of leaving blogspot yet. I have started this blog more than two years ago and I'm just happy with the thoughts and notes I have written here plus the fact that I have gained new friends. Anyway, please bear with me as I'm juggling things now with work and blogging! Bwahaha. This is a new career!

But no, I'm still a wife and a mother. (just like what others have said in their blogs!-->you know who you are!)

I also need to revive my BE site as I'm getting a number of inquiries again about it. Well, blame it on my TV appearance. People said flawless ang make-up ko dun! Bwahaha!

I also need to update my Events Experts Blogsite. I have two pending entries for it, our Nov 10 and Nov 17 weddings.

Hopefully, I can get my hands do things this weekend as i don't have events! Thank God! No, I'm not complaining about my work, don't get me wrong. But I'm just glad that I still have this last free weekend before December hits. I'm getting ready for it!

Update on "I got upset"

Remember my post on I got upset?

This is what Margaux's teacher replied to me in the journal...

I would like to say thank you for you candor and honesty about how you felt pertaining to the incident with ... I would like to apologize that it happened. I have also observed that Margaux has not been hitting anymore and I know that the consistency in the home and in school and most especially your guidance has helped in this concern Therefore, again, thank you very much for your support. We would like our classroom and generally our school to be a safe environment for all children and their families. Thus, please be assured that we are taking appropriate measures to address and handle the situation; and I'm also taking extra precautions especially for Margaux.

I now rest my case. I'm confident that her teacher is doing her best to handle the situation.

Anyway, the field trip last friday was cancelled because of the rain. We are having it this friday instead. Looking forward to it!

Another Home...

Please check out my other home.

Still working around it but getting there.

Hope to see you all there.

Job Hunting

Are you looking for a great job right now that offers valuable benefits and career growth? Before you can even land one, you need to pass the application process that involves sending your resume, passing the written interviews and even oral interviews. But to even get recognized, one should pass an impressive curriculum vitae. After graduating from college, I had a hard time making my own resume comprehensive enough to be noticed by companies. I have to ask my brother to help me out with it. I was on a lookout for information on how to make a resume. Today, information is actually available through a book. A quick and easy to read book for 27 pages that gives valuable information on how to skyrocket your job hunting success. I should have known this book a long time ago. The book is called how to make a great resume. Testimonials in their website are actually amazing. It provides step by step instructions on how to get your resume read by the hiring manager to be selected for an interview. You will definitely get a competitive edge over the others. This is a must for recent college graduate or any one who is seeking out a new career or job. I'm thinking to get this as gift for my cousin who is graduating march of next year.

Now add up your points and find out the answer you have been waiting for!Put your character in the subject line and forward to your friends and back to the person that sent this to you. Very interesting to see 'who' your friends are!

(10-16 points) You are Garfield : You are very comfortable, easy going, and you definitely know how to have fun but sometimes you take it to an extreme. You always know what you are doing and you are always in control of your life. Others may not see things as you do, but that doesn't mean that you always have to do what is right. Try to remember, your happy spirit may hurt you or others.

(17-23 points) You are Snoopy:You are fun, you are very cool and popular. You always know what's i nand you are never are out of style You are good at knowing how to satisfy everyone else. You have probably disappeared for a few days more than once but you always come home with the family values that you learned Being married and having children are important to you, but only after you have had your share of fun times

(24-28 points) You are Elmo:You have lots of friends and you are also popular, always willing togive advice and help out a person in need.

(29-35 points) You are Sponge Bob Square Pants:You are the classic person that everyone loves. You are the best friendthat anyone could ever have and never wants to lose. You never cause harm to anyone and they would never not understand your feelings. Life is a journey, it's funny and calm for the most part. Stay away from traitors and jealous people, and you will be stress free.

(36-43 points) You are Charlie Brown: You are tender, you fall in love quickly but you are also very serious about all relationships. You are a family person. You call your Mom every Sunday. You have many friends and may occasionally forget a few Birthdays. Don't let your passion confuse you with reality.

(44-50 points) You are Dexter:You are smart and definitely a thinker... Every situation is frontedwith a plan. You have a brilliant mind. You demonstrate very strong family principles. You maintain a stable routine but never ignore a bad situation when it comes. Try to do less over thinking every once in a while to spice things up a bit with spontaneity

Now, check what cartoon character you are Jacqui, Arlene, Abie and Toni!

Better Caring

My friend based in the UK told me that she already found a reliable and reputable nursing home for her grandmother. She said she was very happy with Bettercaring since it actually provides a dedicated service to anyone who needs answers to crucial concerns about care for our loved ones. Her grandmother is already unable to cope alone and in need of assistance. She was very happy with the information she got from the website cause it provides daily care news and views. She was also able to connect to a community forum that allows her to learn from other users their experiences within the care system. She was able to find the right home for her grandmother cause the website have a database of more than 20,000 care homes in all regions in UK. She was able to find a care home close to their place and affordable according to her budget. I guess this is one headache off her head.

Got some awards again...

I got some awards again. Thanks to Jean for the superstar award!

I'm passing this on to Apple, Kelly, and Peachy. You are all superstar moms in your own right!

Then I'm blushing to receive these two awards from Pam.

Let me pass this to Joy, Apols and Mich!

PR drop...

It's pathetic...I've got a PR "0" na lang from previously PR "2!" So just when I thought that I have significant good links, still my PR was dropping! This is not good to grab opps available!

I found this link. Did your PR drop also? Read on...

The Show 'Moments'...

Thanks to all those who catched the episode. Likely, mataas ang rating nun! I have texted all my friends and family to watch it, lol!

Anyway, a lot of my friends say, that I was super "daldal." I can even replace the host, Gladys Reyes. Hehehe. But I have no plans at all...lol!

It was exciting to see yourself in TV. It wasn't actually my first time, cause was featured na rin before about wedding planning on Net25 also and an interview about wedding coordinators by Cheska Garcia on Us Girls Show. Well, limelight is not new to me! hahaha, kapal!

They took videos of Margaux and Bianca also. Margaux was ultimate pasaway! Ayaw magpahiram ng toys! Yikes, challenged ako sa portion na yun!

I'm asking for a copy of the episode so I can try to upload it...hopefully, kayanin ng powers ko to convert it to YouTube.

Thanks to all my supporters!

Watch out for it!

People, please watch Moments by Gladys Reyes at Channel Net 25 on Saturday, November 17 at 6pm to 7pm. This is the episode where I would be featured. There's a replay on Sunday, November 18 at 11am to 12nn.

Net 25 is the name of the channel. I'm not sure what channel number it is in different cable companies. But it's channel 18 on SkyCable subscribers.

Hay, I have a wedding on that day...I will just watch the rerun.

Don't forget to catch it ok?
