Debenhams Sale

Last night, when we had an unexpected trip to the mall, I chanced upon a sale on shoes and bags (and clothes too) at Debenhams TriNoma. I was trying to try shoes that should perfectly fit me but I wasn’t able to get a pair. I wasn’t able to get a bag too.

First because the shoe sizes were a tad too big. Second, the bags, I can’t choose which one I like best among 4 choices. Third, the kids were complaining they want to have dinner already. But I didn’t complain when they were choosing their books at the bookstore, lol.

If not for the three factors, the barcode labels of at least a pair (or maybe even two) and a bag would have been scanned for me.

I’m going back tomorrow. *crossing my fingers* I hope I can still get one of those bags I’m eyeing.

Feels Like Summer Already

It feels like summer already and yes. I am sweltering and craving for a big bowl of halo-halo.

To the beach we will go. I hope.

Forever

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I’m sure couples are eyeing where to spend this special day. Whether they spend it on a day at the beach, hiking mountain trails, checking in at hotels in orlando, or running a marathon together, sometimes it does not really matter as long as they are together and having a blast.

Of course, being that Valentine’s Day is commercially-driven these days it is no surprise that more and more people find it not too special to spend anymore. For those couples with children, this has become a family affair: dinner, out of town trips or special meals cooked at home.

“Everyday should be like Valentine’s Day” say some and in that note, I have to agree.
Enjoy the sort film as much as I did

Fresh Juice Drinks

I believe we started the New Year right because we added something new in our food intake: fresh fruit juice everyday.The children drink these fresh fruit juice too and so does the husband.

So far we only missed a weekend of not drinking because we were away at that time.

I still have to feel the benefits and see major changes (hello sexy lingerie, lol/joke) though but one thing for sure, that painful feeling on my shoulder joints are long gone.

Loves Music

The youngest daughter who loves to draw also loves music. She has forgotten though how to play the recorder mostly because her skills were self-taught.

She got an RJ guitar for her birthday (that’s her and the hubby) and she watches video tutorials on how to play the guitar. Before she got interested in getting a guitar, she also played the piano and expressed wanting to have her own drum sets for kids. Being busy in school doesn’t give us time for proper guitar lessons yet, so we are targeting summer programs in our area.

I hope we’d be able to find a good program soon.

Sherlock

If you haven’t watched just one of BBC’s Sherlock episodes, then this is the perfect time to watch because there have been 5 episodes already shown.

I’ve watched all five episodes so far and I can’t wait for the sixth. I can’t really blame BBC for having only a few episodes because an hour and a half for each episode is just like watching a movie! At the same time, it makes us fans yearn for more.

I am a big fan of Sherlock Holmes, having two volumes of those thick books written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I’ve read all the stories there, some twice, others thrice. One was borrowed and was not returned and I believe because I truly am a fan, I got the same book from an event I attended: new, still covered and smelling oh so good.

Anyway, I’ve watched the two movies with Robert Downey Jr too.

What I plan to do is to look for older TV shows to watch and enjoy.
