makeover #2: hot momma rocker

rocker momma in the house! =)

If House was a drug, i'd be an addict

Aishi and I have been hooked on House, MD since we encountered the series one trip to MCS. We're on our 4th season already with 3 episodes to go and we have encountered a lot of Houseisms.

To name a few of my/our favorites:

"I've found that when you want to know the truth about someone that someone is probably the last person you should ask."

"There is not a thin line between love and hate. There is --- in fact --- a Great Wall of China with armed sentries posted every 20 feet between love and hate."

and of course, the line that started it all:

"Everybody Lies"

~*~

and i have this little crush on House. hehe

make over idea #1: office wear

wishing and hoping i can wear something like this to the office. ala-devil wears prada.
more or less, where i work it's the same idea and principle as the movie, minus the uber nice clothes everyone's wearing in the office. here, you see us in our usual jeans, shirts, sneakers, flip-flops, etc.

tissue please!

Telenovelas do not and will not compare to this:




this is what friendship is all about. it knows no boundaries, race or even specie.

such an amazing story!!

PPBC # 6: What type of Parent are you?

This edition is hosted by Daddy Angel, you can view the submissions here:

Today's Topic: What type of Parent are you?

From what i noticed with myself in terms of taking care of the kids, i'm more of a mom-in-between. i'd like to think of myself as the fun mom/parent but at the same time the disciplinarian as well.

Me being the fun mom: i've created a lot of make believe games and funny tricks to make my kids go to bed, eat their meals, stay put or just do what they're being told to do. and not to bad mouth hubby or anything, but for obvious reasons, the kids prefer to play with mommy than with daddy. i find it heartbreaking for hubby's part but, you have to give him credit in making all the effort for them to play with him. on the lighter side is, the kids have their own games with daddy as compared to mine. so i guess it's just a matter of preference and mood.

Me as a disciplinarian: there are times when they do test my patience, i do give them warnings, when i exhausted 3 warnings and they still continue to do it, i get their hands, palms facing up and spank them - not too gentle and not too hard either. just enough to let them feel the spank. but then after the deed, i explain to them what merited them the spanking. amazingly, we only had a few lapses. the spankings are at a minimal level since they know when to stop when they hear mommy's angry voice and see mommy's angry face.

Personally, i think i'm a student parent as well. i learn so much from my kids that i can never learn from school. my kids are one of the best teachers. i've learned to appreciate the little things, to laugh all out and without a care in the world, that it's ok to ask, that nap times are the best, hugs and kisses are free, that it's ok to cry. and in return i teach them to figure things out for themselves, to pursue what they want, never be afraid to be curious, to fight for what they believe is right, the privilege to argue/debate, and to know that we, as their parents can be their friends as well.

wow. i had fun with this week's topic. looking forward to the coming topics!

tired of mp3s in my pc and my ipod

so i'm listening to these:
















keeps me sane today. thank you my boys =)
