Our manager gave us options on what we want for lunch/dinner today. The company is giving money to treat us all employees, so we are going to have lunch/dinner party later. He asked us what we want to eat. I thought we are going to be getting an option but whatever were in the list, our manager was actually going to buy them. He told us that yesterday. Every single food that is in the list, he will be bringing it with him today. I just couldn't believe that the company is actually giving us that much amount of money. We may need the help of an apidexin because they kept feeding us there. It is not a problem though, we are actually enjoying it.
Wedding Video
I am so happy that the wedding went well and Ging-ging and her friend Van did their part. I asked Ging-ging if someone could record them singing for me and mama did. Though a little shaky, but I am very happy to see it.

Opportunities
It is really nice to have an alternative these days. Although the job market is slowly picking up, but there are still people that are having a hard time finding and getting a job. In fact, I talked to this one co-worker who graduated with her bachelor's degree in business, and she is working in a retail store with us. It is not that there is something wrong with it, but I know she can find better with the kind of education she has.
She has told me that she applied and applied but none of them has gotten back to her. Well, there were a view interviews she had, but what they are looking for are people with 10 or more experience with managing people and business. She said, if they are not going to give her a chance then how will she ever have any experience. She is right though.
Thankfully, she does modeling every once in a while on top of working as a lead in the store. She was even thinking of looking into the best franchise opportunities from around our area. It might be something she could do since she is into fashion and photography and her mom had been asking her to open a business. I really wish her well.

Home Gym
Friday, May 28, 2010
It's been a while since I have time for myself. I am extremely busy lately. If I have the time, I usually spend it with Frankie. I take him outside and take him to the playground. There are times when I can't help but feel guilty when I leave Frankie. I feel like I am not spending enough time with him, but I am sure he will understand in the future that this is all for him.
Another thing that I would really love to do is work-out. It would be nice to have that time to myself. Unfortunately, I can’t go to the gym after work because I go straight to school or vice versa. That is why it would be really awesome to have one of those home gyms, so I can work-out at the convenience of my home. Maybe in time, it will happen.

Goodwill
Ryan got a discount postcard from Goodwill. We have been going there every once in a while especially when I need some black pants. I like shopping there because their clothes still have tags in them. I have gotten quiet a few clothes that are brand new which was only for four dollars. Anyways, about a week ago, Ryan kept asking me to go to Goodwill, so he could use his 20% off. I gave him a hard time in the beginning but later gave in. It was a Monday so there were quiet a few people there. I heard, Mondays are the best day to go there because people tend to do their spring cleaning on the weekends and bring their stuff that they want to get rid of on Mondays.
Ryan was standing by the electronic stuff when one by one they are bringing the TVs out. He didn't realize that one right next to him was a 40 inches one. He was static when he saw it and called me immediately. I came with the cart with me and with his discount the TV was only $9.00. He was so excited. I was thinking of saving my money to get him a flat screen TV, but I guess it will do for now. It is as big as I wanted to get him anyway for the fraction of the cost. We got lucky that day.

Rapid Detox
Saturday, May 22, 2010
The society we live in today has given us so many options. Women these days can now enhance what God has given them to get the look that they wanted. Some goes through plastic surgery while others do detoxification. Every once in a while we need a complete detoxification of our body. It is not only healthy but also very highly recommended. However, rapid detox is very helpful and useful detoxification to those who had used drugs before and wants to cleanse their body for good. You will be amazed to know the different options one has for those who wants to renew their life.

Deals
Wednesday, May 19, 2010
I was not too happy last year because my birthday fall during Black Friday. I was so mad because it was hard to take off especially when I work retail. That is considered to be the busiest day of the year. If I didn't have to work that day, I would love to stay home and shop online for Black Friday. There are some people who are absolutely crazy, and they go crazy over things that they do not need. Well, I can't really blame them since there are really some good deals during Black Friday.

Memorial Day
Saturday, May 15, 2010
I am really excited for Memorial Day. All the supervisors and leads are off, so I am happy and thankful for that. I am not sure what to do or if Dada wants to go somewhere, all I know is I am off and I am looking forward to it. We already talked about cooking out or something or maybe have Papa make some kaboobs but that is still up in the air. We probably will go shopping since Tuesday is our first day of school.
Anyways, I better get ready because I still need to go to school to check my classrooms. My Tuesday class is quiet early, and I didn't want to get stuck looking for my classroom. I also need to surrender my school I.D. and get another one. There are so much to do with just a little time. I can't believe I only have one week off from school but its ok. I will get there eventually.

Belated Mother's Day
I am so jealous right now. My brother told my father that they are going to treat mama out (dine-out) as a belated mother's day gift to her. My nephews will be coming a long too, and I already told my sister to take a lot of pictures. It is always nice over in the Philippines because you can get fresh seafood and you can watch them cook in front of you while you wait. That is why it is not a question when one gains weight while staying in the Philippines. We always eat over there all the time. People there doesn't seem to worry about their weight and they probably do not need the most effective diet pill. Here in the US however, we surely need it.

Already Planned
Ryan and I are planning to have another Frankie. Yes, it is what we want to do. The only problem I have is, I am afraid that I might be put to bed rest again like I was in Frankie. I don't want to quit my job because I love it there. Last week, I was planning to enroll myself to this gym close to our house. I want to work out giving consideration on the lower part of my body. You see, when I get pregnant, my legs couldn't hold the weight of my upper body that is why I start bleeding if I am on my feet all the time. I am sure work won't let me work during truck days, but I am afraid that my legs can't hold standing 8 hours a day, but when I realized that I had to go to school four times a week, it would be very hard for me to go. I am considering going this fall if my schedule permits. Maybe I could use a one of the best fat burners, so I don't have to worry about burning so much fats when I finally go work-out. Yes, we really mean it. I am very excited this time.

Election
The people in the Philippines must be glad that the election is over. When I was there, I could not help but scream because the politicians where going back and forth playing music with their name in it. Meaning, they completely change the lyrics of a song and replaced it with their name and their political platform. They play it with megaphones and they go from one place to the another playing it over and over again. Well, I hope the newly elected politicians will do what they promised, but it is really hard to hold them accountable to that. All I can say is good luck to the people and to the newly elected.
