Last year, we spent 2012 New Year's Eve in Dusit Thani Manila (one of my dad's clients) and enjoyed their Crossover Buffet and Countdown to 2012. It was our first time to experience celebrating the New Year that way. Thanks to my parents for giving us the tickets.This year, there were no tickets sold to my dad since they probably knew he had a stroke.

I love printed Christmas wrappers being sold in stores but I felt that I need to rest from those colorful and vibrant gift wrappers and do a little therapy for myself.I was initially looking for kraft paper but I wasn't able to find in the NBS branch that I went to. Beautiful ribbons were also part of my original plan but it would also be costly for me this ... [ Read More ]

Adios 2012, Ola 2013!

 Looking back at my 2012 New Year's resolution, I'm happy I was able to accomplish most of them. I lost a little weight but I think it was due to stress when my parents were confined last September and November. I still eat rice but seldom drink soda already. I've been driving again for 7 months already since the start of Kelsea's formal schooling. I came to realize that learning how to drive is very important nowadays in terms of saving time and doing errands for the family. We weren't able to ... [ Read More ]
