Shoot Me! It’s time to stop hiding behind that camera of yours. Your family is missing you in the picture. So it’s time to post a picture of YOU (yes, you) every Thursday with your child, your spouse, your friend, your dog, or even by yourself. Just get in the picture, you’ll be glad you did! And just jump in now with 1 of 52, you can do it

I met my cousin for the first time in flesh last Thursday.  But we have been communicating early 2004.  She had several visits to the Philippines since the time we connected but nothing happened to our plan of meeting.  But this time, she made it here with my cousin and their son and we met!  Unplanned and that was suppose to be a surprise for me.  Indeed i was surprised as it was my mom who told me the news that they are already on their way to Iligan (my hometown) from Cebu.

She is beautiful.  She does not look her age.  She looks like 5 – 8 years younger than her age by the number.  One of our favorite topic when talking online is our weight.  We both wanted to maintain the small size we had many years ago but we seem to get bigger and bigger each year.  I am bigger than her though but still we want to loose our unwanted weight.  But when i saw her, i really can say that she is not fat nor chubby.  She just looked alright.  I bet she was smaller now compared to some years back.

She and her son will be staying here in the Philippines for sometime.  With convenient help at home she is hoping that she will now have all the time in the world to exercise – walk, run, do her exerciser and she is sure she will get her wish come true.  I asked her if ever she has used diet pills before.  She said never yet but she would like to start one if she is sure of the pills.  I told her about the apidexin scam going on. It says scam because the slimming pill worked for some and it did not worked as much as it promise to some. So i think each user should check on the reliability of the pill so that it would do her harm. It’s better to be careful you know than having regrets later.

I was so happy to see my cousin’s wife at last!  I hope to meet her again someday soon.

There should be a thorough planning when constructing a building.  Be it an apartment, a commercial structure or just simple a house.  Yesterday, i was at cdo twice and i observed that there is a construction of buildings going on the capitol building site and they are steel buildings I don’t have any idea when the construction be done so for sure in few years time, government offices will be a in a new building.

Lim Ket Kai complex is getting huge everyday, too! There is much improvement going on in that city. How i wish that Iligan is also booming that way.  If given the chance to choose where to live and work maybe i will consider taking the chance.

A shy shot of myself taken weeks ago (before my camera got lost).  Just playing with my camera.

It took me a hard time to look for recent photos to be shared here.  I guess i should start collecting those shots taken by friends as my usb is now ready.  I hope to share some more in the coming Thursdays.

Happy Thursday everyone!

A friend is blessed to have a big package from the states.  It was a huge box and it was very heavy.  So i was curious on what’s inside.  Later she shared me that there were around 10 big bottles of vitamins for kids for 5 families.  That is excluding the vitamins for older people and also the prenatal vitamins intended for a pregnant cousin. I was interested for the older people vitamins because mom is old. Then she added that if i wanna have some prenatal vitamins she will also give me a 2 months supply. She’s kidding ya know. At times i think it’s nice to have a baby again ( i want a baby boy) but thinking about rearing up a child will be too much for me to bear. So i told her that i will never get pregnant again. Maybe after a couple of years i will have myself ligated.

See that encircled portion?  That’s what i see when i try to click and play farmville.  It’s been like this for 3 days.  I thought it’s just the connection thing but even though i closed all other pages, still the connecting won’t finish.  I dunno if it’s only at my end.  Am sure my plants there are already lanta. haiii I am sure it’s only at Farmville because i don’t have problems logging in at Barn Buddy.

My cousin and some friends are busy preparing for a big test in their life.  Some are enrolled in a formal review class while other did self review only for financial reasons.  I told them about online review and some are skeptic about it.  So i shared this link about gmat prep for any big test they want to be prepared for. One friend decided to check more on it and inquire from her sponsor in the states if reviewing online review is reliable.  I will be waiting her reply on Wednesday.

I guess to enroll in an online review class, one must have a good internet connection speed because as of the moment am connect from the netbar and the connection sucks.  There’s no connection at work that is why i missed my turn in making a post for OWM.

Last week a friend of mine came to visit to introduce me to her new-found business.  A networking of healthy green capsules.  She wanted to endorse the product to me.  Sounds interesting but I turned down the offer because am not in great financial situation.   But i told her not to get discourage because who knows in the coming months, my finances will get better.

Another friend also told me that she is taking phentermine and so i told her if she was able to read online more info about this pill that some women are crazy about. She said yeah she has read it and has answered some questions.  I can’t say yes or no in behalf of her because i haven’t tried Phentermine.  The only capsules i did try was Green capsules from Rejuvination.

This happened 12 years ago.  I was young, single, and in love.  I was working in a city in Visayas while he is based here in Mindanao.  It was not my first long distance relationship and my first was just broken.  That experience did not give me the lesson that maybe long distance relationship will not work.  For us, it worked sometime.

One of the unforgetable meetings we had was the Valentine s date in one of the paradise Island in this planet.  Though it took me a couple of months to save up for the trip, yet when the time came for the trip to happen, my money was not enough.  Enough to travel but there’s not enough for other expenses (the emergencies).  We did not anticipate emergencies yet we argue that we should have that budget.  We were reserved in a 4-star accommodation for 3 days and my salary was not enough.  So I was not prevented to apply for a cash advance.  I am a bit hesitant to do cash advance because at payday I would be receiving less, but for emergency cases like that, I really did thank for that cash advance.

The three days date was heavenly.  We spent long afternoon hours in the beach – relaxing, swimming, strolling, and watching the sun set.  The moment with each other was so blissful that i don’t want each day to end so that the three days won’t be over.  To cool our bodies on the third day (we were sun burned) we had coconut juice and orange juice by the pool.  We did not swim in the beach anymore.  Our body needed the cool water treatment.  We then took a nap by the pool side too.  Fall asleep while reading due to late nights going around the island and playing with the other guests.  Watching the star studded sky was also an unforgetable moment with him that time.

Valentine’s day is just around the corner.  It’s less than 30 days to go and am recollecting this experience.  How i wish it will happen again.  I can still do the cash advance but the problem is, with whom i can do the date.

Anyone wanna apply?
