As of the moment, while I’m working hard in front of the computer with the bedroom door locked, my kids are screaming and chasing each other with their father. The noise that I will not get tired of listening. Sunday night, is mostly a relax night for us..

I finished watching two movies this week, The Time Traveler’s Wife and Did You Hear About the Morgans? Both are very nice movie that truly gave a little me/get away for myself. :D

Have a good up coming week to all ;)

We’re are visiting our neighborhood for our invitation campaign regarding memorial of Jesus death and we found a house where the doorbell is very confusing. From what I know, doorbell or the front door should be accessible from or on the street where your address at. For example, if your house is in the corner of Apple and Orange Street, and your address is 123 Apple Street, then your house/gate should be fronting the Apple Street. However, the house we went today is very confusing we cannot find the doorbell facing on the street address. What we found is another door with doorbell and facing the other corner street. =( It was total disaster finding the correct house. Oh well, we just left the invitation anyway.

Today is Thursday and it’s my Friday :D We have no work tomorrow because of the furlough day and I have few errands I need to do.

  1. My annual check up in the afternoon.
  2. Visit a friend and his family in Pocket area and also harvest their lemon tree ;)
  3. Grocery shopping and some window shopping for clothes.
  4. And at night, I need to edit photos from June 2009 to print.
  5. Buy the hgh supplements for my sister because we need to send another balikbayan box this month.

I will be sad when the furlough days is over.. but I will get more pay by that time. hehe ;) I guess the extra money will offset my sadness then lol

Based on my experience, I finally found a natural acne treatment for my acne-prone chin. ;) The culprit of unstoppable sprouting of pimples on my chin is because of my diet. I eliminated/lessen eating friend chicken and shrimp. I love both of these foods and I never imagined that every time I eat these, it triggers my acne. I also stop using acne products, just regular face wash and moisturizer and my skin is finally clear. My problem now is lightening the freckles that I accumulated by not using sunscreen before and some dark scaring of my previous acne. Any advice?

After the pinch I felt on my heart the other day, I am now planning to reduce bad cholesterol on the food I eat. To plan healthier meals is a challenge; I need to love preparing food in the kitchen and to be strong enough to avoid temptation. Therefore, my plan tonight is to go grocery shopping at Costco. I need to buy greens for my salad and some fruits too. I also started my research on what food is low in bad cholesterol but good in heart. I really need to be healthy.

A friend helped me submit my website to different web directories when I’m just starting out. It is helpful because you get the internet crawl or people can find your site on their search engine quickly. Those were the days when I’m just starting to explore the world wide web.

Now is my turn to help friends that are interested to explore the web having their own domain. I’m not an expert on this field but I know some basics ;)

Who doesn’t need a heated blanket in a cold weather? The weather lately is so perfect to put out all those warm blankie. The cold weather and a warn blanket are the perfect combination to get more sleep. I always do! And that’s the main reason why I’m always late at work during winter season. By using blanket, you can save electricity in your heater consumption. So better take advantage the help of it!

Every morning I wake up, these are the things I do online:

-Check Email
-Facebook, while opening email
-Log to YM to check for offline message
-Farmville, harvest crops
-Café World, remove and cook another dish
-Go back to email again and reply to anything I need.

Seems like not a lot of things online but this can take me hours.. Specially harvesting and cooking another dish. lol Checking about my task thru blog and research work, like enzyte feedback, forum update, and hosting stuff will be taken care when I go back from work. I cannot access personal email at work and that’s good thing. Otherwise, I will not be productive if I have to do personal stuff at work. lol

How about you, what do you do online?

I truly have no time to update this blog. I was so busy in my real work and I stopped trading because I have no time to check the market. I was also busy in my weight loss goal that surfing for the best appetite suppressant was my main priority. I’m thankful that my effort was blessed when I lost more than 10 lbs. I’m still on my track to lose more. I really want to get back on my pre-pregnancy weight with my eldest daughter. I hope that I will be able to hit my target. I also stopped shopping for new clothes cause I want my older stuff to fit on me. It’s really a big challenge for me to meet my goal.

Lianne

-That Lianne looks like me, except that she got her dark skin from her dad and her lined eye brows.

-She is very smart and I would say she got it from her dad.

-She knows that God exist and she have faith, I think she learned that from me.

-She eats a lot like me but very discipline like her dad. ;)

-She doesn’t eat pork fat and chicken skin, which she learned from me.

-She doesn’t drink soda and only eat 5pcs of cheetos in a day which she learned from me again.

-She’s good at computer ;) Her dad taught her a lot on these things.

Gab

-That Gab got his looks from his dad, except that he got his fair skin from me.

-Little boy is also smart but we don’t know that much yet.

-He babbles a lot and have a big smile which looks like me. lol

I took a lot of videos of my kids and it’s really refreshing to go  back and watch it again. However, it reminds me that I need to upgrade my video card for more quality viewing.

I had a chance to browse some baby photos of my eldest daughter in our old computer. It was really slow.. but seeing her baby pictures brings back all the memories. She’s almost five now and I just can’t believe how times goes so fast making my little girl grew up and me old. I need to back all the pictures on DVD before my husband upgrade the notebook memory. I hope it will be easy and won’t take me days ;)

All my week was spent organizing things at home and start of my days going back to work. I have tons of things lined up to finish. I selected accounts that I want to work on, including two field audits. I want to start working on the field so I have more experience to add on my belt. Actually this one of the requirements they want before they promote an employee to the next rank. While I’m busy with things at work, my hubby on the other had is busy planning things at home. He is trying to add a home theater lighting in the family room. I don’t know if he can make it happen. Why things home doesn’t end?

I earned my accounting degree eight years ago. I went to a traditional university for four years and it was hard to balance life while pursuing to finish my education. I’m thankful that I was still able to finish it on time and within my timeline. But I still wish that online accounting degree was one of my options that time. I like the idea how universities give option to students now to pursue education without the burden of going to traditional classroom. Things get harder when you have family and have to work to earn money. Time is truly precious to waste on other things.

And I like how Rasmussen College keeps this tradition for traditional classroom but then give student option for online business degree. They have campuses in five states across the Unites States- Florida, Illinois, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Wisconsin.

Their website can give more and detailed information about the programs they are offering. I also noticed that various Financial Aid programs are available to assist students for the tuition fee. You can get more information for Pell and SEOG Grants, federal loan programs, state programs, and other alternative options for students on their website.

I’m looking at the option of pursuing a graduate degree online. Maybe a master in finance would be one of my options. I like the idea that I can complete a graduate degree without attending traditional classroom. I don’t think it will be possible for my situation to pursue this if online business degree is not offered.

Students from Rasmussen College can ask questions and interacts with their professors 24/7. The school also helps students land a job by posting job openings and also keeping a resume data base for their students. Find out more on their website for the dates and school updates.

I was using Proactiv for almost 4 years before my pregnancy. It helped control my breakouts but it really didn’t stop. I still get some zits on my lower chin once in a while, especially if my period is soon to come. I stopped using Proactiv when I found out that I’m pregnant. And since my hormone is really acting crazy, the one, two, or three breakouts became uncontrollable acne.

It really bothers me a lot. I tried over the counter face wash thinking that it is safer but no success of clearing or controlling my acne. Now, I tried Murad. So far so good.. it works like Proactiv. It didn’t fully stop the breakout but it clears the acne on my chin. Hope this will truly the product for my skin.

Market is really crazy.. but I’m happy with the outcome for today. Most of my stocks went up.. but of course still not breakeven. I setup some sell alert when the stocks hit a certain price. I want to make sure that I have it cover when the price goes up.

Anyway, my Friday still end up really good! Have a good weekend to all!

Believe it or not I owned more ipods than what I need. :D But now I only have two left. One is a 4GB iPod Nano that I use when I work out and the other one is 80GB iPod that I bring at work or wherever I go. I stored videos , music, audio book and podcast that until now I haven’t listen all. I’m saving it when I need to feed my mind and no other way to do it but to turn on my iPod. Too many versions came out already but I don’t think iPod Touch will appeal to me right now, since I don’t really need to have the touch screen function. But who knows I might change my mind anytime ;)

I owned books more than what I can read. lol Once I organized my stuff I will take photos of it and believe me I only flip couple or some pages but never had a chance to read from beginning to end.. Maybe on some that I truly need the information. I often rush to buy books when I want to learn something. But often I don’t have enough time to indulge in reading. How about you do you love books too?

Once I deliver the baby, five months from now, I will definitely go back for my acne treatment. I normally get zits of one or two on my chin but with my pregnancy and hormones acting weird, I have to suffer acne on my chin. :( It’s my pregnancy hormones and I can’t do anything but to wait till nine months is over. It’s getting closer and I’m happy knowing that this acne will go away soon!

Few more days and my mom will be here. I’m really excited! After not seeing here for four months, there will be a lot of stories I want to tell her and of course mostly Lianne antics. But before that I have to clean up her room and get a new bedding sets to give different feel. Hope I can do all of these things.

I was cleaning my desk here at home and I gave all the promotional pens I’m collecting to Lianne. Most of these pens don’t work anymore. Although at first it’s hard to give away something I kept for a long time but I have to. They said that the main reason why clutter doesn’t end because your holding things that you don’t need.. in short trash! And I’m glad I was able to.. *sigh*
