Miss earth is here once again and as always I’ve chosen my best candidates that I feel would be the next miss earth. Hmmm! Let us see then. There are about 90 candidates and I have chosen 20 but I am not sure yet of my list not until I would see them on TV. My list for now might change on the coronation night but for now I am sticking to it. I have so much confidence on miss Philippines; obviously she’s my top number one and they are numbered according to my likeness of them to win. The coronation night will be this Sunday the 9th of November and will be aired around 9 in the evening. I am so sure to watch it. Just thankful miss earth originated in the Philippines which means I can watch it every year not like miss world, miss international and miss universe. My bets are on, how about yours?

Coffee Therapy

Coffee is coffee, sometimes it’s too bitter, sometimes too sweet, I can decide on what taste I want my coffee to be, and same with my coffee therapy blog I can write whatever I want to. In creating this blog I don’t have any specifics at all on what I wanted this blog to be. It isn’t about coffee neither some remedies to something but anything that whatever comes to my mind at point of contemplating.

Beautiful Pages

This beautiful pages blog is a personal blog of mine that most of the time speaks about me, how emotionally grateful and ungrateful I was at times and how in the process it kind of shaped my ability of emotional survival. The words and thoughts are real and honest. As I have said there will always be beautiful page or pages of our lives that we all have. Even if how ugly it turn to be, it later become beautiful pages etched from our temperament and tenor of thought. It could be about everything; so much about everything but one thing I am sure of writing about is that this life has to keep on moving. These are my pages.

Smorgasbord

I love cooking so much that it never stops me from achieving one of my dreams and desires in life that someday I’ll be a chef in my own right and kitchen. It is a must for every woman to know at least how to cook for society dictates us not to but it is something one should prepare about because one way or another I am going to get marry and to myself I want to be an excellent cook to my family. This smorgasbord blog is all about food, the kitchen, about home too and anything that has something to do with the said interests.

Beach Avenue

I am not a well-traveled person neither I have been out of the country but who knows. I considered this beach avenue blog as ambitious because it aims to discuss my travels, how it went well and what can I say about the place. Beach Avenue is a word I best describe my likeness to travel. I want to wander in some places, be free as a wind and for a moment there I want to feel that reviving soul inside me that continuously hungers for independence.

Light Conversations

This light conversations blog is personal blog too and the newest I have been blogging about. This is all about the sheer conversations and moments I had with my friend. The story of my posts started about her but it isn’t really just about her but also to other possible things that can be talked about like womanhood, motherhood and the its relationships in between.

Someone stole my pants. I didn’t thought it would happened to me and last night was the night. I was aware that in this kind of place we live it happens once in a while but I was just so complacent that it wont happen to me. What makes me so complacent about it? The only mistake I remember I did was I hang it near the gate and not near the window, which I always did. I also had the feeling of should or shouldn’t I turn on the lights outside it must be a sign then that I took for granted. Poor me and now I learned my lesson. I heard news before from our former neighbors, that some of their polo shirts were stolen and was never found. I wasn’t expecting mine will be returned. It’s just that I didn’t take that news so seriously. And now that it happened I feel so sorry for myself. I was of course mad when I found out that it was stolen but they didn’t took the hanger that comes along with it. I guess that doesn’t interests the thief. It was an original lee pants that fits me well. I like the fitting and though it’s a little fading it still look nice especially when I wear that pants. Bottom line is I’m going to be very careful next time. Soon ill be over it but not at this point because obviously I am still mad.

This is a funny story to tell. I won movie premiere tickets through a radio game show; I had 2 pairs of tickets from 2 different movies. I invited my friend to come join me in watching these movies and she willingly accepted my invitation. We watched the first movie last Monday at glorieta. All I knew and what I had in my mind was that the movie was said to be showing on Monday. When we got into the cinema I wonder why it’s a different fm station that’s hosting the premiere. I checked our tickets and I found out that the tickets were supposed to be on the 14th and not on the 13th. I concluded then that I was the one to be blamed and that I have wrongly heard what I was hearing from the radio. Almost all radio stations were giving away tickets for that movie but on different dates and venues. The receptionist that’s how I call it overlooked our tickets and there’s no way of going back. We were there already so might as well watch it. It’s my fault anyway.

The title of the movie was Max Payne. The movie was presented in a way that the whole story was understood at the end but to me it lacks texture but it was all good still. I was looking for something more that could be as good as Dark Knight. That was just how it was to me. And it is said to be that there will be a 2nd movie for Max Payne. Just maybe then the second one would be better than the first.

High school life was like 9 or 10 years ago. I miss the events that took place during those times and I miss my friends back home. It is said to be the most enjoyable part of being youth. And I must not forget fun too. I say yeah it is. Anyhow the following photos posted are some of my high school classmates who happened to come by here in manila and never forgets to contact and see us. That is so sweet of them.

Everybody is sound asleep now. It’s always like this I was the one who sleep late in the evening but it’s not that late like how it was before. It’s only during evening that I get a chance to write a post for my 5 blogs. Sometimes if I am that in a good mood I can do all in one sitting but that’s not always the case. Like now for instance this is my 4th post for my 4th blog site but I’m having a little hard time to establish an idea in order to make it readable to my readers. I am turning blank again and I couldn’t think a much more better idea than this. Hmmm… I heard mother snoring from where I am. She don’t used to snore that loud, well it’s not loud as in super loud but its like the sound is a little louder than what it is before. Is it because that she’s getting older that’s why she sounded that way? I don’t think so but that I have to search. But father snores the loudest around the house before. Yeah that was before fathers in heaven now. I just remember him. I don’t know if I snore like my parents are nobody told me I guess I don’t snore. Speaking of sleeping and snoring I feel a little sleepy actually. I guess that means I have to sleep now.

Good night and happy reading!

I woke up today at the wrong side of the bed. There are those days that when one wakes up it doesn’t seem to feel right, I can’t explain why but sometimes it does happened. I had a mild headache last night but that didn’t cause a hindrance for me not to sleep well. Thank goodness my headache was gone. Though my headache was gone still the pain I felt in my hands is still there. I can’t flex it well, I can’t carry a full pitcher of water in one hand it should be two hands and I felt that the muscle were a little stressed out. I know what had caused this. It’s unavoidable for me not to touch water while doing the cooking. It’s when the hands are wet, a little later it gets dry because from the heat that’s coming from the stove and gets wet again and gets dry again. That’s a bad habit right there that I have to find some remedies in order to lessen the pain that I am feeling. It should be that all the necessary ingredients are chopped prior to cooking, keep one hand dry and one hand wet. It worked a bit but still there is pain.
