what video? what photo?

January 28th, 2010 · No Comments

I’m that person who takes her camera everywhere or has her camera ready all the time. And then finds herself taking 2 to 0 pictures because she’s too busy thinking of unimportant things or just plain busy having fun or just simply preoccupied to be bothered with getting her camera up to her face [...]

a nice day outside

January 28th, 2010 · No Comments

We’ve been having such nice weather lately. Lots of sunny mornings and cool, breezy nights that it makes me want to spend more time outside. It would be nice to head out into the country and have a picnic in any one of the parks scattered along side roads, sit on those outdoor [...]

January 22nd, 2010 · 1 Comment

I don’t like how things are going for me.  I hope the tides turn and everything will soon be on the up and up.  Finances are tight.  But it’s not only me who is in this predicament.  I don’t know if I should feel happy that I’m not the only one or should I be [...]

fact or fiction?

January 21st, 2010 · No Comments

I love to see movies wherein the plot is interesting and original. Last year, I got to watch so many movies but I only liked quite a few. Most were science fiction. Whether I believe those movies or not, I don’t know. Nowadays, there’s a thin line dividing fact or fiction. [...]

business cards

January 16th, 2010 · No Comments

Ever since turning my back from the corporate world, I rarely get to meet anyone who would readily give out his business card.  The people I meet on a daily basis now are mommies, teachers, runners and stupid drivers.  The last one I would prefer not to have anything to do at all.  I kind [...]

bank account

January 16th, 2010 · No Comments

I’m ashamed to admit it but at my age, I don’t even have a bank account.  I used to have one but due to the fact that I loathe going to the bank and falling in line, I decided to withdraw all my money and close the account.  I just don’t get it.  For a [...]
