So before I changed my mind, I called Bendyk to change his clothes and it was my turn after I put his "paraphernalias". In 30 minutes, we reached Mama's house (hubby's granny) to pay her a visit and at the same time asked hubby's 15-year old cousin if she wants to come with us. You see, I can't handle my little prince alone. He's too heavy for my skinny body to carry him the whole afternoon. It's just a good thing that Sweetie excitedly come with us. She's been spending her summer school-break at home so she is also getting bored.
Well, the truth is, we planned to watch for the most awaited heart-throb Sam Milby. We heard that he's coming at 6:00 p.m. this afternoon. And since we still had so much time to stroll around, we let Bendyk played his fave game, basketball and also had his rides. But it seems that he won't take a "no" for an answer when he insisted to ride in that push-car. Oh my, he's getting hard-headed lately. As what most people say, "like mother, like son" seems to be true, lolz!
I had an eye on that colorful cotton candies near the WOF so I went there and bought two cones, pink and blue. I just dunno why it says in their jar that the pink one is a bubble gum flavor. Hmmm...it didn't taste like one. Well, maybe it was just a part of their marketing strategy.
We also went to the Castle Playhouse but we didn't let Bendyk come inside. He's below the 3-year old bracket and according to their rule, the kid must be accompanied by guardians only if both are wearing socks. Well, I don't wear sneakers nowadays so it'll really be impossible for me to wear one. I know Bendyk wants to play inside the Castle but I told him to wait until he turned 3 this coming November.
After an hour, I asked Bendyk if it would be okay for him if we return the push-car since one hour had already lapsed. He agreed but on one condition, we have to eat at Jabee. Whew!
Afterwards, we went upstairs to buy a flash drive. I got the 2 GB so I can store a lot of my files, particularly pictures and digiscrapped images.
And then we headed to Landco Plaza where Sam had sung 3 songs. He is really good in singing and mind you, he looks so charming and sweet. He's not so maarte like the other celebrities who would hesitate to shake hands and even dare not to go down the stage near the audience. He's really a nice guy aside from the handsome face and body he has. I was actually taking photos and videos of him using my phone, but sad to say the light coming from the stage was really irritating. I don't see Sam on the photos taken. I could have just brought my digicam only if I knew that I am going to see Sam in person.
Sam Milby left at 8:00 p.m. so we just waited for hubby at Mama's house. And after an hour we went home and forgot that I've not yet taken my dinner. Maybe I was overwhelmed of Sam hahaha! Hubby had taken his dinner in Naga City so he thought that we already had eaten at the mall before we went home. It's late at night so stores are already closed. It was just a good thing that I bought earlier 3 Chuckies, Chiz Curls and of course, my fave Snickers. Yea, you got it right. These serve as my dinner for tonight except for 1 chuckie which Bendyk took away from my 'office desk' huhuhu!
It was already past 11:00 p.m. tonight, munching and sipping my instant dinner.

This is a true story which happened in the States. A man came out of his home to admire his new truck.
To his puzzlement, his three-year-old son was happily hammering dents into the shiny paint.
The man ran to his son, knocked him away, hammered the little boy's hands into pulp as punishment.
When the father calmed down, he rushed his son to the hospital. Although the doctor tried desperately to save the crushed bones, he finally had to amputate the fingers from both the boy's hands.
When the boy woke up from the surgery & saw his bandaged stubs, he innocently said, " Daddy, I'm sorry about your truck." Then he asked, "but when are my fingers going to grow back?"
The father went home & committed suicide.
Think about the story the next time u see someone spill milk at a dinner table or hear a baby crying. Think first before u lose your patience with someone u love. Trucks can be repaired. Broken bones & hurt feelings often can't.
Too often we fail to recognise the difference between the person and the performance.
People make mistakes. We are allowed to make mistakes. But the actions we take while in a rage will haunt us forever.

There are some things you can do, however, to break the ice on that first date. And while you’re breaking the ice, you can be observing your guy to decide whether you want a second date with him.
Dating Tips for Teenage Girls #1: Go to a Movie or Concert
This will allow you to spend a few hours together without struggling to find something to say. Afterwards, the show you just saw will give you plenty to talk about. While you’re evaluating the show, you can be evaluating your date as well. Do you and he share a sense of humor or a similar sense of values? Does he laugh at things you find offensive?
Dating Tips for Teenage Girls #2: Do Something Physical
Go indoor rock climbing, challenge him to a good, hard game of tennis, or suggest a bowling match. Until you know him better, avoid activities like hiking that will put the two of you together in an isolated area. Observe his attitude and see how does he react if you win? Does he get sullen and resentful, or is he pleased for you?
Dating Tips for Teenage Girls #3: Double (or Triple, or Quadruple) Date
Go out with other couples to get some pizza or see a movie. The more people there are, the more easily the conversation flows. Watch your date as he interacts with other people. How does he treat the other girls? Is he pleasant, or does he make crude remarks that annoy the others?
Dating Tips for Teenage Girls #4: Make a Study Date
Meet at the library to catch up on school work. Most libraries have private rooms study buddies can reserve. As you work and chat together, observe his behavior. Does he do his share, or does he count on you to do the majority of the work? Does he know how to work through a problem, or does he get easily frustrated?
A first date can be every bit as awkward as a job interview. But these dating tips for teenage girls will allow you to have fun with your date, while at the same time keeping an eye out for personality traits you may find undesirable.

Contrary to popular notions held by women today that there just are not enough good men left to date, evidence that is available points out that such is not the case. The ideal man could be someone that has a good career as a teacher or electrician and who is over five feet seven inches in height, is athletic or even huggable and who likes to cook, dance and hike as well as watch movies.
Look For Honesty And Monogamous Males
The best dating advice for women would be to look for such men, who in any case are also looking for a loving relationship and who view monogamy positively and who, also pride them on being honest. You would also be well advised in looking for a partner that is not too much older or younger than you since such men would also want the same things as you do.
Another important dating advice for women is to give the man a chance because it is a common complaint among men that women just don’t give them a chance, and it is quite common for men to be refused by women that have sought men out through dating services without even having spoken to the man or responded to communicate with the man any further. This kind of behavior on the part of women can leave men dazed and bewildered and also very frustrated.
The next piece of dating advice for women worth considering is to not judge the book by its cover and look beyond appearances and looks. Often, women may complain that they only are rejected because of their looks and men do not take enough time to get to know them better, and the same holds good in the case of men being rejected by women. The best dating advice for women is that they should select their partner not just on physical attraction, because this a common trap that most women easily fall into and that is why matchmakers don’t show photographs of prospective partners in the beginning.
It also brings up an important point about the cost to women in rejecting men based on superfluous attributes, and unfortunately the cost may be quite high and it is a common reason why they often miss the boat.
It is a much better idea to profit from dating advice for women and expand the horizons by looking for more desirable qualities in men such as finding someone who fits well and who maybe also has a warm heart, or who has communication skills of a better kind. Women should also look for education as well as honesty and because women in this present age are more independent, they do not need to worry too much about emotional support or even the financial status of the partner.
It is also worth paying attention to another good dating advice for women and that is it pays to get to know the man and sharing a glass of wine or engaging in light conversation and sparing an hour or so of her time to know the other person from the inside is worth more than simply accepting or rejecting a man based on his physical attributes.
Today, dating is filled with many opportunities and according to sound dating advice for women, you need not be so hung up on expecting very high standards of the prospective male and it is much better to give the other a chance and even say ‘yes’ when someone meets minimum criteria even though he may not be an ideal person, but could still make an excellent partner. There is not much you would lose and plenty that you could gain.

Dating Tips for Teenage Guys Taking a Girl Out on the First Date
0 comments Posted by freakymom at 7:03 AMDating Tip #1: Ask Her What She Wants to Do
Girls love it when they get the opportunity to go on a date to their favorite place. So, you will be earning a lot of respect from her if you follow this dating tip. However, if she says that she does not have a particular place in mind, you should start planning! This is also a good time for you to ask other female friends that you have for advice.
Dating Tip #2: Choose a Neutral Place
Since this is your first date, you do not want to jump right into a romantic relationship and take her to a romantic restaurant. Keep everything just fun for the first date, and take her to the mall or to the movies. As for what movie to pick, choose a comedy. This way, you can laugh together and keep the situation less nerve-wracking.
Dating Tip #3: Give her a Flower
When you go to pick up your date at the door, make sure you bring her a little something – specifically, a flower. It is a nice gesture, and one that she is sure to love. However, keep it simple and save the bouquets for later on. As for what flower to choose, a single rose is a great idea, but if you happen to know what her favorite flower is, that is especially good.
Dating Tip #4: Do Not Try to Rush Things
As much as you like your date, you cannot just start making out with her, or going even further. Girls like a guy that lets them lead in that department, and it is better for you to just get to know each other on a mental level instead of a physical level. If this does not interest you, then you should reevaluate what you are looking for in a relationship.
Remember, relationships take time, and as a teenager there is certainly no need to rush into one right away. The important thing is to date and have crushes, but certainly not marriage! Dating is supposed to be fun, so get to know each other and see where this relationship goes.

Oh well, I also informed him that vintage car is a lot expensive these days so how come that there is a cheap car for sale? He insisted that it is indeed not a joke because he is actually planning to get one when he saved for it. Well, it must be really true. But I want a car that I am assured of its quality and performance. And you probably know that getting one is a lot expensive.
But not too late for me, I guess. There’s an auto insurance offered online. And sooner or later I might avail one from them. Wish me luck. How about you? Have you ever dreamed of driving your own car? You better take a look at the site first so you’ll know if you are on the right track.

It’s just a good thing for me that my work online is paying me on time. But sad to say, my hubby is still dealing with the inconsistent paydays. Although he’s earning a good compensation from the company he’s working, he isn’t happy enough when the salary is delayed. So I suggest that he might just apply for a payday loan. It’s indeed a helping hand in times of emergency needs. You might as well want to try this one.
You could be pissed off by the endless wait for your delayed salary. So now is the time for you to seek assistance while you wait for the salary to be uploaded in your account. I tell you, many are into this kind of service these days especially that we can’t tell when exactly we will be paid for the money we worked hard for. Check it out at easypaydaytoday.com.
But more than anything else, your health and that of your family is the most important thing you should consider. It has always been the priority of every family. For best health protection, you may seek assistance for a health insurance online. I tell you, checking it out is one step you can make so as to ensure the health of the whole family.
It always feels great to be healthy, especially when you know that everybody is healthy in your family. So why neglect it when you can actually find assistance in just a few clicks of the mouse. It’s only at ez-insuranceportal.com where everything that your family needs is just a few clicks away.

Anyway, it’s over and I’m fine now working at home without someone to reprimand me to do this and that. And perhaps, you know how it feels to be in the same kind of situation. If I’ve had enough of that thing, my hubby isn’t yet over with his consistent delayed salary. While he’s well-compensated from his job, he has to wait for days after the scheduled payday before he can get his salary.
So he’d rather apply for payday loans while waiting for his salary to be uploaded to his account. Sometimes, it has to be that way, to seek help from a lending company so that when emergency knocks on you are sure that there is someone/something you can count on.
Best yet, you may visit nodebttoday.com as it can offer you a great deal on debt solution which you needed most. It has always been a hard situation when you have to deal with paying your debts, and worst when you incur bad debts. So the best thing to do is it’s either you don’t apply for a loan or pay your debts on time. You have to always think beforehand; otherwise, you will really have to carry a heavy burden caused by this.
So I replied him with a message if that car he’s talking about has its wheels complete and that I won’t have to push it just to run. Yes, I didn’t take it seriously. I also added that it might just run within the city and won’t be able to run miles and miles away. He insisted that it’s a vintage car but still looks great. In fact, he’s also planning to buy one.
Well, I’m not so sure about it because all I know is that for you to get a quality and performance car, it will let you spend a lot first before you can have one. But I am also dreaming to have my own car so that I can go wherever I want and whenever I want. Of course, I’ll bring with me my family. I might just apply for an auto loan than purchasing a car that I am not sure if it will last long.

And most of all, we also have to consider the expenses of applying for one aside from paying for the house and lot. Now it left me thinking if do I have to study about Mortgage before we jump into paying for a house and lot. But then again, hubby and I also consider availing the housing loan benefits that we could get from a certain government office.
It won’t hurt if we try availing it. In fact, it will help us start on our own and avoid spending a lot for rent which we knew even from the start that the house won’t be ours even after so many years we will be living here. So we come up with a decision to apply for a housing loan in the future. But before we do that, we have to study everything first so that there will be no hassle in paying for the mortgage. It’s just a good thing that I found a site that can help me with my thorough study, the mortgagefindersnetwork.com.

The entire week is so busy for me. The other night, hubby and I went out and had a drinking spree at the beer plaza along with his coordinator and my friends. The next day, hubby had his trip to
Just today, I bought a new 21 inch flat TV with a swing features so I can swing it to the right or left depending on my desired position. I wouldn’t have to lift it up just to put it in the direction I want. Now, I am just thinking, if I am empty pocketed now, I might just apply for credit cards so next time that I had to purchase something, I will just pay for it using the cards than paying in cash.
I’ve known friends who are enjoying the hassle-free of using credit cards. They can shop at anytime they want to and when emergency arises, they have something to use should they come run out of cash. How about you? Do you prefer using credit cards?
Labels: Credit, Credit Cards, Finance, Loans
Now, I’m here working again in the middle of the night because I am not empty pocketed. But it’s alright since I can see where my earning went to. It’s worth spending though especially that hubby and I are able to invest for our own things without asking from anybody. It makes us happier just with the thought that no one is supporting us just to live a life so simple yet satisfying. In other words, we faced the consequences of early marriage independently and we are proud of ourselves.
Since I’m empty pocketed now, I might need to apply for payday loans so when time comes that we need emergency cash, I have something to count on. For some who are in dire need of emergency cash and your salary is delayed, you might as well try this one. It’s worth availing, I tell you.

Anyhoo, I started the day cleaning the house, rearranging stuffs from one corner to another and so far it feels good to touch them once again. You see, I've always been a frustrated interior designer so expect everything inside the house to be rearranged once a week or at least twice a month. It makes me feel oh so damn goood!
Done with the general cleaning and assisted my prince bendyk in his milky bubble bath. My prince looks fresh again so I turned on the TV so he could watch his anticipated fave show, wowowee. While the wifey momma went to the kitchen to cook for our lunch. Hubby is at work so no one would cook for Bendyk and me. (sigh!) I found fresh longaniza and was confused on how to cook it the right way. I forgot to ask hubby about it before he left.
Well, I imagined how it looks like when cooked so I figured out the procedures. I washed the longaniza first before putting them on the pan. And then I half-filled the pan with water, and put it in the stove, covered them and waited for a few minutes until the water boiled. I picked every piece of longanizas and sliced each into thin pieces. After that, I put a little cooking oil in an empty pan, put the longanizas on it, sprinkled a pint of sugar to caramelize and put them on the stove. I tossed and turned them on the pan so they won't get burned.
After lunch, cleaned the table and washed the dirty dishes on the sink, I took a bath and interact once again with my techie-buddy. I have a lot of online work to do. You see, I resigned from my job, but it doesn't mean that I don't work anymore. I deal with data entry, social marketing, and monetized blogging so expect me to be busy everyday like when I was still working in a real office.
