Are You Happy Classes are Suspended?

Call me a prude but being a mom and a teacher, it pisses me gives me displeasure to read how the young people are HAPPY that classes are suspended.

Come on, classes are suspended because there is storm signal #2 which has a lot of rains and strong winds. And flooding. And flying debris. And falling trees plus MORE homeless people.

“No classes, yey!”

“Party time, classes suspended!”

“I’m taking my sweet time doing this hoping classes will be suspended tomorrow.”

Classes suspended at all levels tomorrow due to strong prayers of students”

Ahem, you don’t need strong prayers for classes to be suspended, save your prayers for those being battered by the strong rains and winds.

FYI: Classes are suspended so that we all could stay at home and be safe.

We can probably do that chore we have been meaning to finish, like organizing our cabinets or Christmas photo cards in the box somewhere in one of the rooms or even try baking some goodies if the electricity is still on.

After we said the grace before meals, the hubby (who came home early in time for dinner, yey) asked me to pray for those being battered by the typhoon, for those who have nowhere to go if they get flooded or if their homes are affected by the weather disturbance.

I hope these people who are happy because classes are suspended think twice and not wait until what is happening to some of our kababayans out there will happen to them too.

As with the chocolate chips muffins, these are best eaten when still warm. Please pass the coffee! 🙂

End of the School Year Rewards

Some friends overseas are ecstatic as school-year end came because their children had school awards. I don’t doubt that’s likely to happen since Filipino children (well, not all of them of course) overseas have more discipline when it comes to studying.

One friend was even asking what would be good graduation gifts for boys she can give her sons. No, not the newest hand-held gadgets, was the consensus from us moms. We suggested books, new clothes, a mini-vacation and new toys!

My children have their own little rewards too at the end of each school year. It make them look forward to getting these little gifts especially when they’ve worked hard in school. 🙂

Fiber Supplement

Been drinking a fiber supplement for several weeks now in the hope that these will be safe fat burners. I don’t know if there is an effect on the weight management I’ve been trying to do but it definitely made others noticed that there’s improvement. Of sorts.

Hah.

I know I feel better because this makes me drink more. I feel thirsty and I know I have to drink because if I don’t I feel my lips (not the mouth) go a bit dry.

I’ll be continuing with this for several weeks more and see how effective the supplement is.

I don’t drink this on weekend though.

Family Special Events

Children’s birthday parties are fun. I enjoy watching children play games and enjoy themselves. Of course, there are those who are… never mind.

Baptisms, on the other hand, are special events I love to attend too so I get excited when we get Baptism invitations. Not only the child is being welcomed to the Christian world but it is a wonderful opportunity for family members to get together and catch up.

Of course, there’s family drama and all but that’s something I don’t want to be a part of.

Crispy Dinuguan from Kanin Club

This is Crispy Dinuguan from Kanin Club (UP-AyalaTechnoHub)

Crispy Dinuguan from Kanin Club

Quite unique because we are used to eating Pork Dinuguan with soft meat. The pork in this Crispy Dinuguan have been cooked with a crunchy texture (yes, ginawang chicharon!). When you order this for takeout, they crispy pork bits are in a different container separated from the sauce.
