Christmas Eve

Published by iamjacq under

We’ll be celebrating Christmas eve with friends later and I’m sure there’s going to be lots of food. Right now I’m just going about my daily routine, not exactly my typical routine since hubby is here to look after the little girl while I try to organize things around the house. I’ve noticed we have a lot of used cds in our drawers, I don’t have any idea if all of it are still working and I don’t want to find out. I’m sure these are cds we can afford to lose since it’s not properly kept in cases. I don’t know what to do with these, there’s just so many and I hate tossing it in the rubbish bin. Perhaps I could ask my husband to checkout AbundaTrade and see if they’ll accept items such as these cds, who knows we could trade our cds for some new gadgets we’ll definitely use. I like the idea of trading used items for something of value such as cool gadgets. In a way it’s recycling so it’s good for the environment and who doesn’t want to have the latest gadgets right. This inspires me to do more deep cleaning, maybe I could find more items we could trade.

Third Anniversary B & J Family Pic

Today we celebrate our third wedding anniversary and we did it by going to a wedding :) I think it was nice seeing anothe couple exchanging vows the very day we’re celebrating ours. It brings back fond memories, my wedding is one of the happiest and most memorable day of my life and I could say it was the same for my husband too.

When we got home we were greeted by the best blessing that came shortly after our wedding, our little girl.

Here’s to us, three years of wedded bliss…and counting. Love you Babe.

Packing light

Published by iamjacq under

It can be a challenge packing things for a short vacation when you have a toddler in tow. It seems like I can’t leave anything behind, it feels like I will need everything for the little girl. It won’t be a problem if we have Swiss Army luggage that is spacious enough to hold everything in but since the smallest luggage we have could only handle so much I have to really pack light and take only what is important. Our other luggage were too big so I’m stuck with this little Samsonite and while it is sturdy I wished it is a bit bigger. Wish me luck in packing, only a few more days before our vacation, I have to keep moving.

Surprise!

Published by iamjacq under ,

Every year hubby and I usually don’t give each other presents on the day of our anniversary. I usually just pile up all his gifts under the Christmas tree and have him open everything on Christmas day. Today I had no idea at all that he got me something. Before we left for the mall he told me that he’s waiting for a package so I asked my sister to wait for it (since we’re going out). He told me that the package were the Tamiya parts he ordered for his RC. He always get stuff from Tamiya so I believed him. Little did I know that the package was for me. When we got home later that afternoon I found my Everyday Minerals makeup in the mailbox and was excited to try it out. I spent quite sometime in the bathroom using the products, I still didn’t think anything was up although I was surprised when hubby shut the bathroom door (sort of locked me in). Imagine my surprise when I walked out and found all my Twilight books, calendar and movie companion piled up on my desk (I’m thinking who the heck touched my things…my Twilight stuff…they should know better not to mess with them), when I got closer I found that it was concealing something….
Surprise

It was hiding this beauty. I was totally surprised! I had no idea he would come up with something like this. It took me like 20 seconds to realized that it was indeed a surprise for me. I read the card and was already thanking him for the flowers then I saw the little box and inside it was a nice necklace/earrings set for me. Thanks a lot for the surprise Babe, Happy 3rd…Love you!

Great Food

Published by iamjacq under

We’ve been invited to spend Christmas eve at a friend’s house and knowing them I know there’s going to be a lot of food. Knowing me I won’t be able to resist (lol). I’ve been thinking how much I let myself go this year and I’m really hoping I could get back on track in 2009. No I don’t think I will need weight loss pills just yet nor I’ll be brave enough to try taking one but I’d like to shed a few nasty pounds that doesn’t seem to go away (but instead keep on adding up). I don’t want to go all whinny about it (afterall I have no one to blame but me, and maybe Starbucks and french fries) so I’ll just deal with it…next year though. For now let me enjoy all the yummy and fatty food :)

Preparing…

Published by iamjacq under

We leave for Cameron Highlands in a few days but I haven’t started packing anything yet. I have a mental list of things that I need to pack and on top that list are the little girl’s things. Having a toddler means lot of items to bring for the trip like feeding bottles, formula, fruit juice, diapers, snacks, baby wipes, changing mat and other little things that we cannot afford to forget. It’s not like I got las vegas hotel reservations for the family but that doesn’t lessen the luggage though. I still look forward to this trip, I’m quite excited actually. I want to see how well the little girl can handle this trip then maybe we could make plans to go somewhere again on Chinese New Year or National Say.

I want more

Published by iamjacq under

After we watched Twilight last Saturday I told my husband that once it comes out on DVD I’ll be buying a copy right away. Of course he knows about Twilight addiction already so this didn’t surprise him anymore. Now if only have a nice home theater seating like the Gold Class seats from the cinema it would be perfect. I have a stock of popcorn here so it would be like watching it in the cinema all over again. Yes if you haven’t noticed I still haven’t had enough of Twilight.

Post Anniv Getaway

Published by iamjacq under

We’re going to attend a wedding the day of our wedding anniversary and since it is just a day before Christmas eve we can’t really do anything. We always plan our celebration after Christmas and this year we’re going on a little trip. We leave on the 26th for Cameron Highlands and Kuala Lumpur, and I’m excited because we’ve never been to Cameron Highlands. We’ve been to Kuala Lumpur several times but this is the first time with the little girl so I look forward to that myself. I’m hoping I could get lots of nice photos to scrap with afterwards so I’m praying for goof weather.

We’re going to visit some key tourist attractions in the highlands such as their tea plantation and strawberry farm. I’ve read that it is cold there (like Baguio weather) so I’m going to pack long sleeves, lounge fleece pants and jacket for the little girl and jackets for us. I don’t want anyone getting sick or something. Oh I have to start planning what to pack, it is tricky when you have a toddler in tow because it seems like you have to bring everything. Do I need to bring some sexy lingerie? Well that is debatable, lol.

Excited

Published by iamjacq under

We’re going to watch the movie this afternoon! We’re going to the mall a bit early so I can do a bit of shopping while we were there. I gave out most of the Christmas gifts last night but I still need to shop for a few. Oh and we’re going to pick up some of the little girl’s stocking stuffers as well. I’m just finishing a few tasks this morning so we can go after lunch. One of which is a favor for my mom. I was browsing for life insurance quotes this morning for my mom when I saw some quotes about disability insurance, not something I would suggest to her but I might mention it.

Anyway, have a great weekend everyone! I will blog about our Christmas party soon.

Twilight Sneak Preview

Published by iamjacq under

The official realease date is on the 18th but I knew there’s going to be a sneak preview seeing how this movie is really much awaited. True enough I checked Golden Village this morning and they’re already selling tickets. Hubby and I are going to watch it TOMORROW and we’re gonna watch it in style (lol).


It’s a Gold Class cinema so it has a private lounge and plush electronic recliner seats like that of a
First Class airline seat. You can also order food and wine as they have a private dining room, I think I still prefer my nachos with cheese and popcorn paired with iced tea (hehehe). Hubby said this is an advance celebration of our wedding anniversary on the 23rd so I didn’t think twice even if it cost $36 per ticket. I’m just excited to see them on screen….

I’m going to read Twilight again tonight…
