As song performed by Jessica Sanchez weeks ago at American Idol season 11 and from the hubby keep on playing it over and over again… As the Studiologic Keyboards started to play, she started singing her voice had so much soul, so powerful. My sister and hubby love her performance and every week they are waiting for her next number. I can’t deny the fact that her voice is superb, sissy said she had goosebumps while listening to Jessica.

Summer is Almost Over

pehpot — Wed, 09 May 2012 01:29:32 +0000

and I can feel it! It’s starting to rain almost every afternoon. I am excited for the upcoming school year and though it means expense here and there, I am not at all worried. Financially, I am OK this year so there is nothing to worry about. What I am worried is what will happen to me when school starts. I will taking a lot off my shoulders and will concentrate on being an educator to my two young babies. I hope I can do it.

I know it will be less teleconferencing with my friends but this is for the welfare of my kids.

Kitchen Renovation

pehpot — Fri, 04 May 2012 00:36:33 +0000

Just the other day I was looking at renewing my cabinets and found inspiration from CliqStudios.com, just a pity they don’t deliver internationally. I have been planning on renovating our kitchen. I know this is an apartment but I think the owner would not mind it if I change the cabinets. Most of the cabinet doors has to be changed. I am not sure if painting it can do the work, since most of the cabinet doors are already damaged.

I have been looking for alternative s but still can’t find one that suits my taste. If only international cabinet stores will ship here, that would be really great. I really found great collections and some are just too beautiful to pass up. Maybe if we will finally have our own house, I will find ways to shop for cabinets on the sites I already bookmarked.

I think one of the reason why I wanted to change my cabinets is my penchant for anything fashionable and colorful. I am an artist by heart and really loves playing with colors. I love getting white canvass and filling it with colors that I love.

Aside from planning on renovating the kitchen, I am also busy playing on our bedroom, the cozier I can make it, the better. I usually throw in some nice pillow covers and a nice bedding set, add some lamps here and there and change the curtains to mix with the bedding. As for the kids’ bedroom, it’s a mess! but I find it easier to decorate it than our bedroom. I just add some accessories and change the bedding and the kids are happy with the result.

Parking on Park

pehpot — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 05:14:58 +0000

We love going to parks. My kids love the freedom of running around. I love the feeling of being with the nature, of grass on my feet, of tress on my head. And last Sunday was not an exception.It’s great feeling to just lie on the park, do nothing. I wish we could have pillows too so we can sleep! Here’s the view on my bed last Sunday:

We spent the whole morning at the park and the kids loved it there.

After that, we went home while my sister looked for sunless tanning products at the mall and bought home some milk tea form her favorite milk tea store.

My Best Guy Bob

pehpot — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 05:10:23 +0000

When I joined the Unilab run, Bob was with me along the way.. He was there to accompany me. And while I was training for the said run, he was also there. When I finished counting for the entries for the giveaway, Bob was with me, he was with me until I draw the winners. Whenever I need someone to comfort me, Bob is there. And if I need to spend the day looking for the perfect rack at CoatRacks.com coat racks, Bob is with me.

Who is Bob?

Bob Marley, of course! His music will be my forever upper.

Activities for the kids

pehpot — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 05:04:58 +0000

This summer, we have been buying activity boards for the kids. Before the school end, we bought a chess board and a scrabble board for them to play. I am planning to buy them jigsaw puzzles so that can start to play it with. Aside from that, I also made a space in our house for their books, we call it our mini library and this is the place where the kids can hang out and read a lot.

I really want their summer to be as much fun as well as educational too.

I Can See Clearly Now..

when the giveaway ended I never thought that it could be that much effort to check all the entries and draw winners..the day came as surprise and after an hour of checking the entries, my eyes started to complain. That’s 12 drawings, each drawings is more than a thousand entries. I made it through, but not with the help of Bob.

I made through by listening to Bob’s music and after almost two weeks, it’s done and winners were announced and boy I am glad! Now I can hang on my door the big No Disturb sign as I sleep peacefully in Big Agnes Sleeping Bags, how I wish! I could rest for a while but with 4 kids, a while is like an hour or two!

I can see clearly now’s one of my fave Bob song

MY plastic Love Affair

pehpot — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 04:43:43 +0000

And though I seldom use plastic bags, I think I can’t totally say goodbye to it..

For one, I still need plastic bags when I need to throw up, which happens a lot when I ride a taxi or a bus or when I find something that’s annoying my olfactory glands or I’m on top of metal buildings that when I look down, everything started spinning.

So for now, as I advocate the use of ecobag and saying no to plastic bags, my love affair with plastic bags will not end.

Stress Buster Cosmetics

pehpot — Sun, 01 Apr 2012 23:27:53 +0000

I love wearing cosmetics, in fact, I wear cosmetics even if I am just at home. Cosmetics has become self expression to me and not only to make my face looks pretty. It also become an art where every stroke is a challenge. I am also open to learn new techniques. In fact I already asked my sister to download some videos so we can watch it (she’s also looking for vlc download). Applying cosmetics also become my stress buster.

Proud Mommy

pehpot — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 23:44:08 +0000

Last week was gradutaion day for my second born son and recognition day for my first born son. I am a very proud mommy since my boys got 4th place both. I am super happy for my boys because their effort was rewarded. I am happier with my 2nd boy since that’s the first time that he received a medal. It was just years ago when I walk with these boys, both on an UppAbaby stroller and now here I am, walking with them towards the stage and putting their medal to them. It is such a very happy moment for me.
