Long Trip

We are planning a long trip for next week at the husband’s hometown and its surrounding areas.  We are not dead set yet as to when this will happen but it sure will happen.  As for now, we are re-arranging all our stuffs at home and getting ready for the trip.  I’m quite excited because I will be going to places that I have never been before.  I will make sure that I will take lots of pictures and I will bring extra batteries so I’m prepared.  Believe it or not, this is not a vacation trip.  We are going to look around the area for some possibility of moving.  I’m optimistic about this trip and I hope I get to see some kababayans there so that I won’t feel so secluded.  Also, since its a bustling community, there should more employment opportunities for me too.  I’m excited about dining out there.  No amount of appetite suppressant can stop me from eating at the chinese buffet.  LOL.  We’ll see how it goes and I hope everything turns out great.

I Said I Won’t Fall But I Did

I told myself a couple of times that I won’t get into all of this Twilight bandwagon.  I did not watch the movie in the cinema when it was at its peak.  In fact, I patiently waited for its DVD release.  But hell, everything changed when I read the books.  Book 1 is quite predictable with the movie release going on so that didn’t spark much attention from me but come Book 2, 3 and 4, I couldn’t stop reading anymore.  *sigh*  Forgive me geek friends but I think I’m falling for Edward Cullen too.

WW- Ghost Twins?

This reminds me of the Safeguard commercial. Haha!

7. How long have you been married?
We are still newlyweds.  Our first anniversary will be this coming May. :)

8. How do you feel about being a Wife?
Love it!  If I knew then that this is how its gonna be, I should have gotten married earlier.  LOL.  Well, maybe I just married the right guy for me.

9. What has been your typical sleeping attire since you got married?

I don’t really pay attention in what my sleepwear will be but the Husband prefers if I’m wearing sleeping dress.

10. How do you show how appreciative you are of your Husband?
I tell him how much he is loved and how much I value him and of course lots of hugs and kisses.

11. What do you do when your Husband annoys you?
I don’t talk which annoys the hell out of him but at least I’m not a biatch.  Hehe

12. You are buying or planning to buy your first house as Husband and Wife….
We are actually looking forward to that as our future plans once we get things in order.  We want our house to be clean and neat but has our personality on it.

13. How does your house look like at the end of the day when Hubby gets home?
Right now, we are always both at home so its really up to us.  During the time when he has to leave every day, I keep myself busy by cleaning up.  Not only that solves my boredom but it is also a nice treat to see a clean house for him to come home to.

14. How do you feel about running a household?
I cannot say that I’m the only one running our household.  I grew up thinking that woman always handles everything at home.  Since getting married, I learned that we are a team and so we help each other in maintaining our home.

15. What is the sweetest gift you have given your Husband so far?
Personally, I don’t think that this is something that I can answer.  I asked him and he said “your hand in marriage”.  Sweet noh?

I’m tagging G, Dhemz, Umma, Gracie, Blessie, Lina and Marly.

Artsy Fartsy

I have not made any new layouts in the past few weeks but that doesn’t mean that I lost my mojo.  Actually, I have been attempting to do hybrid projects.  I know…very ambitious of me.  LOL.  Anyway, I already made a couple of them but I could not reveal them yet because I plan to mail them to family and friends.  I hope they will forgive my novice works. ;)   The other day, I spent that last 20 bucks on my purse for this paper cutter.  I got excited like a kid.  Of course, I tried it as soon as we got home.

In the meantime, let me share this layout I have made for our cat.
