List One


17 Jan

I was thinking that when was the last time I made a list what made me happy? I am quite a pessimist and sometimes when I am happy I get nervous especially when things are starting to look good in a right direction. I have to admit that most of the time this is what causes of  some weird things in my personal relationship + the fact that I am very hard to please! So call this a self-help but I will start making a list!

My What makes me  Happy List

  1. I love long weekends!  Usually in long weekends I have a reason to be lazy or to make something in my kitchen. I like digging into old recipe cards or flipping pages from cookbooks or magazine.
  2. Surprise letter, e-mail postcard and even phone call from old friends! I actually had a surprised e-mail from my friend through facebook the other day and I was very happy catching up with her about her life , new job, new boyfriend and in some weird way I was interested with her ongoing hemorrhoid treatments! Shocking I know but when you haven’t talk to a particular person for a long time, it’s amazing on what topic your conversation goes to and you will give 100%interest on whatever topic you both discussed.
  3. Vacations! I love taking vacations.. It relaxes you, it kinda take your  worries and troubles away especially when you go with your best friend and it’s just gives you a reason to break-away and enjoy the time with fun and forget about the problems even for that 3 weeks of vacation.
  4. Bubble Bath and Ice Cream~ have you tried doing both at once? oh man it’s heaven! Relaxing and fulfilling!
  5. Knowing that the new season of favorite show is coming~ Yes call me pathetic but I enjoy watching my favorite shows may it be online or on TV. I have something look to forward to after a long day of work and chores.
  6. Most of all knowing that my family and friends loves and supports me in whatever things I do! They are always there to lend a helping hand, to criticized when I needed to be, always there to forgive me when I do stupid things and still love me despite of whatever foolish things I did!

Wow, 6 items I can write but it made me feel good about it. Try it it’s like counting your blessings to make you sleep!

Bland Foods


17 Jan

I am a big fat failure when it comes to the subject of dieting! I just can’t stand being starved but I don’t want to keep munching potato chips every time I see it. I still buy those stuff but now I am working with my perseverance. I started not adding salt in my eggs and I refrain from drinking soda. I only drink it when I am in restaurant and we only go occasionally. I was watching TV the other day and saw an ad for another weight loss product. I talked to my friend about it and she said that it is one of the best weight loss pills she tried but I disagree with the price! I wanted to try weight loss pills but I am still skeptical about it. Maybe someday I will but for now, I will give eating bland foods a chance see if it will help me any!~

Cute Colors


17 Jan

I got some sketch pad and lots of colored  pencils, pastels, oil paints with luscious cute colors in it. I can’ t draw very good but I like to draw little things like flowers and trees. I do that usually when I bored and nothing else to do. Oh, I finally gathered almost all my stubs and stuff for this years Tax filing. I looked into how much I made and I know that it is not much but I wondered where did all my money go? I don’t know why I can’t save anything ! I always get tempted whenever I go to the mall and see some new clothes and shoes or when I see cute patio furniture cushions online or new books for knitting or new games. I really need to start saving if I want that trip outside the country! This is actually my number 1 New Year’s Resolution is to start saving!!!
