the canDIshhh tales

These were the things that I spotted this weekend!! :) I finally was able to see an actual Xplory stroller here in the Philippines!  (I've seen actual ones being sold in Rustan's for a whopping P80,000.00++!!)  This has GOT to be the first time I'm seeing one that is being used!! Can you see the green stroller at the back?? My jaw dropped when I saw the stroller - this is my dream stroller!  Hahahaha......  I was also finally able to try Sebastian's Dive Bar!  It cost P120.00 I picked: Vanilla Ice Cream Peanut Butter Dive Rainbow Sprinkles (I am a sucker for rainbow sprinkles!!) Pinipig The verdict - it was soooooo good!  It brought back childhood memories of munching on Magnolia's Pinipig Crunch!!

Everyone knows that I sooooo enjoy watching the tv show FRIENDS.  This brought about the topic that I am hosting this week!  image borrowed from google images Online friendships! I used to laugh at the idea of meeting friends online.  While in HS when most of my friends were busy chatting at IRC chatrooms and having eyeballs - I had a boyfriend, thus I never understood the fascination with chatting and getting to know a person without physically being with them. A few years later - I learned how to chat, to surf the net, join forums and to blog. As I joined forums, I met people online.  These people - to be honest, I have no clue about.  I only knew them with their nicknames and their activities online.  Somehow - seeing their comments and opinions on certain topics, showed me that if ever we met, we can be good friends.  This is where I realized - online friendships can actually  work! Never in a million years did I think that I these online friendships would turn into dee

My Panget and I just came from a friend's birthday slash wedding anniversary party. Caught up with some high school batchmates that I've kept in touch through Facebook. It was fun, fun fun!! Company was gooooood!! Food was gooooood!! There's one thing that I discovered though.... Yogurt Fruit Long Sticks! Surprisingly - these long milky sticks tastes great!! :) Try them for yourselves!! My friend Mitch said she bought in Cherry Fooderama!!  GO. TRY. NOW.

Actually - I finally jogged!  And walked, and jogged and walked and walked some more. I have to say, that for the FIRST time ever in my life - I RAN/JOGGED!   Image borrowed from THIS site You do know that I am the most lazy person when it comes to sports and exercise.  I refuse to move a lot and refuse to feel the icky sweat trickling!  The only excercise that I have ever did religiously was Bikram Yoga.  I fell in love with Bikram Yoga because it was a low impact exercise that burned thousands of calories!!  The thing was - I stopped at 2008, because I was getting very busy planning my wedding.  But once my wedding was done - laziness crept in and here I am, almost two years later - chubbier and the laziest I've ever been!! So what changed my mind?  Well, firstly - running was free, I didn't need to pay for any gym membership!  Secondly - I can do it by myself!  Thirdly - weight loss was fast!! :) And so I decided - I bought myself a pair for Ryka rubber shoes in

Hello everyone!  I am Team Carnival 's host for Week #7 Since I'm the host this week - I had thoughts on what topic to discuss.  I've been tinkering on some but finally landed on one - Online Friendships!  This sprung out of watching my favorite TV series FRIENDS!   I would like to ask our lovely members on their opinions and views on Online Friendships !  Do you believe that online friendship can turn into real one?  Or do they just keep us company online?  Did the internet somehow bring you together?  How?  Why do you think so? In the years that I have been actively online - I have found friends online who later became my good good real friends.  I have friends who've met their significant others online - amazing isn't it?  I hope you can share your thoughts and insights on Online Friendships! Let me know! :) *Image borrowed from THIS site

This morning - I woke up nervous and excited. I immediately checked on my Plurk and Twitter accounts for updates. As early as 11am - reports of PCOS machines failing have been on the radio, tv and social networks on TV.  This honestly got me worried. When I got to the precinct - I immediately looked for my name on the list, checked my cluster and asked the PPCRV volunteers for the precinct number.  They were ready with a map to show me where in the baranggay hall it was located.  As I entered the baranggay hall, I first noticed the long lines, followed by the number of people from all walks of life, followed by an observation that - it wasn't like this in the past elections where people were seated down rather than standing up.  As I reached my precinct's table - I was shocked.  I then gave my SSS id to the person in charge - she then searched for my name.  Honestly - this took the longest as she was looking at the wrong list!  It turns out that she thought my middle name

DI'scovered:  Puregold in Subic! I honestly overheard two kids walking by the powdered juice section all giddy and chatty.  They were looking at a certain Kool Aid.  When they left - I looked at what they fussing about.  I saw - Kool Aid, great!  Another Kool Aid drink!  Nothing new right?  But when I turned back to my cart - at the corner of my eye, I saw something.  And so, I did the 'double take' and then I finally saw why those two kids were giddy! It was KOOL AID - Invisible! What the hell did that mean right?  And so, I read on - and there it was 'Clear drink!  Great fruity taste!' Now, isn't that something?  I proceeded to tell my Panget's SIL, she said that, the 'invisibility' may make the drink healthier as there will be no more additive of coloring! Cool huh?!

I am giving away tickets to the Then and Now Massive Music Festival 2010! Yahoo!!  Imagine watching a single concert with so many artists!!  Cool right? From the Then and Now site: The THEN AND NOW Massive Music Festival ambitiously positions itself as-- quite possibly-- the biggest Philippine music event of the year. We have six artists performing all their greatest hits for all their Filipino music fans: TQ, SWV, P.M. Dawn, Diana King, Baby Bash, Frankie J, JoJo, and even a few more to follow.
