Do to others as you would have them do to you. [Luke 6:31]
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding. [Proverbs 3:5]
Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. [Hebrews 11:1]

It's Getting Hot in Here...

Laney and I had dinner last Sunday at Burgoo at SM North Edsa's The Block. Laney had a yummy burger, I had some rice dish with chicken strips, corn kernels, sausage, mushroom and what not, it was a bit spicy but it was good. We shared our food. Wanted to take a pic of us together but she said she wasn't freshen up enough. Hee. And she told me what the MACRO [with the flower icon] function on my cam is for...it's for taking close-up pix...wheee. Something new I learned. It was nice seeing Laney again.

Like my digital clock? I DO!!! LOVE IT! I saw it on my way home last Wednesday just downstairs of the LRT Monumento station. I love the different colors. It's called MOODICARE digital clock. Might get one for my sisters since I know they will like it once they see the pix. Hee. It runs on 4 tripleA batteries and two other kind of batteries. Though, if you can use a 4.5volts adaptor too. Can you guess how much I got the clock for???

I got these blank CDs for a friend, he downloaded me a game that my dial-up connection won't be able to. I tried tho, I started downloading around midnight, then just left it and went to bed. When I woke up at 5am-ish, my connection was disconnected, as expected and I only got to download 20++MB out of 178MB. HAH! So, I asked for help/favor. Thanks Captain!!! Until I get that CD from you. I'm excited. A new game to play. I just finished Diner Dash 3 : Flo on the Go, my thanks to Pia for sending the game. Free games are good. I had Luxor 1 and 2 before, finished Luxor 1 but didn't get to play much of the sequel. The games on my computer right now are: Diner Dash 1-3, Mystery Case Files : Huntsville, Mystery Case Files : Prime Suspects, Wheel of Fortune, Bejeweled 2, Chainz 2, Dynomite, Solitaire, and some games I added for Nadine and Dylan are: Mummy Maze, Insaniquarium, Seven Seas. All good.

  • It's almost 3pm now. My chat with NG ended half an hour ago. He needs the sleep even if he was trying to stay awake, once the body wants rest, you just have to give in. Hee. I slept from 1am until about 11am today. All good. We started back on doing the mails this week, back to 20 mails each day of the week. It's quite funny crazee at times, coz whenever I reply around 9pm-ish or 10pm-ish my time, he'd also be starting to reply from his end, since he now reply from his day job in between breaks. It's all good so far. I think, I'm gonna be able to call him everyday now, just before he leaves for work. The PLDT Budget Card is the answer. Php100 for 30 minutes [3pesos per minute rate] And we only talk for a few minutes, just to say hi and what not. So, it works. A budget card lasts for a week to two for our daily weekday talk. Though, I don't get to talk to NG on the phone everyday since there are times, I'm not home by 7pm coming from work. Glad there are cheaper means to communicate nowadays. Sending a snail mail is much pricier than calling now no? Gotta love non-pricey stuff. I do.
  • If you're from the Philippines, I'm sure, you're looking forward for the long Holy Week break, I know I am. NG will have a break around the same time too. All good. It'll be starting April 5th [Maundy Thursday], 6th [Good Friday], 7th [Black Saturday], 8th [Easter Sunday/Nadine's] and 9th [Bataan Day/Tatay's birthday]...that's a long break...if I had the extra cash, I'd go away somewhere quiet...as if. Hee. I've never been out of town for Holy Week. Always at home.
  • The only thing I don't like is that it's really hot nowadays. But I know it is hotter in some other countries too. So, the heat we're experiencing right now is not the same in Africa or India no? I should stop complaining no? But it's human nature to complain. I should just keep mum about it. Hee. Like that will happen. I heard the phrase: "Ang init..." yesterday around the work place one too many times. I said it too. Mostly to myself. Sigh. I prefer the hot weather than rainy though, but I still complain about it. Hee.
  • Our washing machine FINALLY gave up on us last Wednesday. It's a 15++ years old Samsung machine. About time to have a new one. Soon. Might get one using a relative's card then will just pay it every month. I have to wash my jeans by hand later when the water comes back. And two weeks worth of undies to wash. I got lazy last week. Hee. To have someone wash your clothes nowadays will cost 300. I wanted to go that way this weekend but since Mom did most of their laundry, there is not really much left but jeans and what not. So, will just have to wash by hand. It's not that hard, used to do it back in the 90s, we sometimes don't get a person to wash our clothes. Just have to do what you have to do right? There's a thing called brush to help me in scrubbing since I can't possibly wash it by hand literally. Hee. Am I making sense or what?
  • Must go for now, will play DinerDash3 whilst I wait for the water to come back, then it's laundry time for me. Sounds exciting no? Wanna help?
  • Have a fine weekend. God Bless.

    Oooh, nice alarm clock! I thought it was just a feature of your cam, where you can change the colors of the pic. Hee. Nice!
