Workout Clothing for Plus Size Women

Posted by girlie on May 14, 2013

Sometimes I get frustrated coz I can’t find the right size or the right fit when I buy my gym outfit. It’s either too tight or too loose, nothing right. I sometimes think that I already belong to the plus size, well an xxs probably. Is there even such a thing as xxs in the plus size section? Now I remember something funny. My friend was bragging that she’s a small and I was like what the, I am a medium and you are way bigger than me. Oh I forgot, there’s a Small size at the plus size. Yeah she is a plus, and she can buy plus size workout clothing when she starts working out. Oooopsie, she’s insisting that she doesn’t need to work out coz she’s already skinny. Hhhmm am I the one dreaming or is she?

Friday Zumba Class

Posted by girlie on

 photo ScreenShot2013-05-14at34126PM_zps2d1c6a07.png I always look forward to my Friday Zumba Class. I like the idea of wearing the same coloured tops every Friday. We some sort of have a “colour coding” happening every Friday. We’ve done almost all the basic colors already and this time we’ll prolly opt for a different shade of some of the basi colors. We look good in all our photos, the others even like the idea. I don’t know if they will have their own “colour coding” Fridays. Oh if you wanna join us, the gym is located at NS Amoranto (Formerly Retiro) at Revflex Fitness Center

Drug Rehabilitation Center

Posted by girlie on May 4, 2013

Drugs is a serious problem. It can lead to a lot more problems in our society even crimes. When you watch the news, crimes happen left and right, most often than not drug users are the culprits. Sad isn’t it? Anyway, it has to stop somewhere. I hope those drug dependents submit themselves for treatment. This could be the beginning. There’s this drug rehab treatment center that can help them. I know of some who’s gone into treatment and look at them now, completely rehabilitated and have been good citizens already. Hopefully all drug dependents realize their worth as individuals.

Familiar with Car Lift?

Posted by girlie on

Anything to do with cars is beginning to be a big business here. I guess people have learned their lesson that in order for your car to service you a while longer, maintenance is the key. This is the reason why you see car service left and right. I wonder if they know about car lift deals? I see a lot not having car lifts still. Maybe they think that it’s expensive. Well they gotta check the prices here so that they’ll have an idea how much it cost. That’s going to be an additional feature in their business.

Virginal Nails

Posted by girlie on April 12, 2013

 photo ScreenShot2013-04-12at20637PM_zps13116203.png I am no longer used seeing this color on my nails. Too tamed? “Virginal” is how I put it, but I find it very pretty. It looks clean and simple for a change. For some of you, you already know my love for nail art and loud colours so this is a big deal to me that’s why I am posting it. Something new, ika nga!

Snail Mail

Posted by girlie on

I have been thinking about snail mail lately. E-cards no longer excite me. Maybe I should start sending postcards for Christmas. Instead of the electronic cards that I often send I might as well go to the post office and mail my cards. I came across these wholesale postcards in the internet and I thought why not design my own card? I will make it personalized too. I think people will appreciate it more when they get one. Well I did when I received a card from one of my friends. I miss receiving so called snail mails.

I Love Music from Latin America

Posted by girlie on March 28, 2013

Who likes Latin America music? I do! I love the beat, I love to dance to the beat. We use this kind of music during our workout and it’s a lot of fun dancing to the tune. Did you know that a guiro is used when latin music is played? It’s the distinct sound we hear that is usually associated to latin music. It’s now being used in today’s genre too. Ahh it feels good learning something new everyday. This is the reason why I love the net so much, there are a lot of stuff that is still to be learned.

40 off at American Eagle

Posted by girlie on

 photo ScreenShot2013-03-28at43356PM_zps44212260.png Finally hit the order button. I had it shipped at my sister’s address in the US. I was able to avail of their promo which was 40% off on all items plus free shipping. I paid almost P5k for 8 items, it’s like 50% less when I buy it here at the AE store. I am not in a hurry anyway. My sisters are sending a box in May so I might probably get it June in time for my birthday!

Ignorant No More

Posted by girlie on

I’ve tasted cigar once in my lifetime. That’s one off my bucket list. Nah I am just kidding, it’s not part of it. Well I’m actually glad I was able to have that experience, at least I have something to say when I bump into someone who is a cigar smoker. I can probably learn from him too what the top cigar brands are. Usually these connoisseurs know what is the best tasting one. I remember going to this place where these people meet and you will be amazed when they start talking about taste and all. You’ll get encouraged to try even once in your life when you get to listen to them. I think that was the reason why I was able to try it and I don’t have any regrets.

Learn to Play an Instrument

Posted by girlie on

School just ended and the kids are pretty happy about it. This is the most awaited time for every student – vacation! How are you spending your summer vacation? I’m sure there are a lot of activities in store for everyone. Most kids do not want to be idle so they find ways to keep themselves busy. Some go into painting while others want to learn a musical instrument. If you plan on joining the band for the coming school year, I think this is the perfect time to learn a musical instrument. I heard that a very good buffet clarinet is currently sold at an affordable price. Why don’t you check it out.

At Club Balai Isabel

Posted by girlie on March 27, 2013

 photo photo-14-2_zps7e726c68.jpg I sooo love this family picture of ours. This was taken yesterday at Club Balai Isabel in Talisay, Batangas. We spent the night there together with some loved ones. It was a relaxing stay, kids had plenty of time to rest and sleep. Both of them opted to sleep instead of swimming especially for my darling doll who needed all the sleep she can get. She got too busy with school getting only a few hours of sleep a day. I’m glad we made this trip courtesy of my mother-in-law. She makes it a yearly thing so that’s something to look forward to.

Start Your Website

Posted by girlie on February 27, 2013

I remember my early days in the blogging world. I would have sleepless nights because I was too excited to improve the look of my blog. Bulk of my time was spent reading about html codes, how to put them together to be able to come up with a nice blog skin. I wish I knew about this website builder back then. I envy the bloggers nowadays because its now very convenient to build their website, no more tweaking like what we used to do. I am thankful though for the experience because I get to learn about html and stuff.

Best Brochure Printing

Posted by girlie on February 19, 2013

I attended the travel expo at SMX last Saturday in the hope of finding a more affordable ticket for my upcoming US trip. I found some good deals alright but it wasn’t for me. If only my destination was the west coast, I declare myself a winner. Anyway, my attention was brought to this certain brochure that was handed to me. Everything I needed to know was there. The colours used for the brochure can catch anyone’s attention. I wonder who did the color brochure printing. It was very effective. You will always remember that you found something in that brochure. What I am trying to say is that among the many brochures that were handed to you, you can single out that you saw that particular information in that brochure.

Missha BB Cream

Posted by girlie on

 photo ScreenShot2013-02-08at125734AM_zps3324bc5d.png I am totally in love with this product. I’ve been using it quite a lot lately because it feels so light on my face. I love the coverage it gives me and I love the fact that it doesn’t get cakey and all. I love the glow it gives me and I feel that it erased my flaws. Like what my daughter said, she loves it too because she looks prettier in photos with this BB cream on her face, makes her flawless. I find it quite pricey though but I already found a solution for that. I might as well buy it in HK and probably stock on it too.

Guitar Choices

Posted by girlie on February 13, 2013

It’s summer time once again. I’m sure a lot of us parents will find activities for our kids. Of course we do not want them to bum around the whole summer. There are a lot of activities to choose from. Number one on the list is learning a musical instrument. I don’t know if it’s just me but I am speaking based on experience. Anyway, if your kids choose guitar for this summer, maybe you can take a look at one of these Epiphone Dot guitars. They need one to be able to practice what they learned. I got my kids the musical instrument they preferred and it’s a joy seeing them play at home.

Drums!

Posted by girlie on January 23, 2013

I’d like to believe that we are a musically inclined family. Somehow each of us know how to play an instrument. We can actually form a band or something. Haha oh my, I must be dreaming. Really, like seriously. But it would be wonderful though, like I can actually put up a band. A real band and not the band from a console. Since I always love to use the drums, maybe I will consider looking into this ludwig drums at musicians friend. I’m not really sure about this yet, there are some things I should take into consideration first.

All for the Love of Coins

Posted by girlie on January 14, 2013

Coins are most sought after here in our household. It began about 2 months ago when the husband really got interested in it. He would exchange all the coins the kids have to bills and puts it in this really really big water bottle. What’s funny is that I am beginning to take interest in coins too. I would secretly wish that whenever I would get my change from merchants it will be in the form of coins. Will this be the start of us collecting coins? For a start I think this gold buffalo coin would be cool. I have not shown this to the husband yet but I guess he will take interest too, this is not just some coin but a gold one, more value I guess.

I Am Funny err Scary!

Posted by girlie on January 9, 2013

Photobucket Who can get crazy like this? I know, I am in my late 40s but I can still have some fun especially when it’s done with my 20-year old daughter. She is cool like me and I am hoping that she remains that way even at her 40s. That’s how I communicate with my children, mostly in a very funny way, always light. I can be stern when needed and they know that. My kind of communication is effective and I thank the Lord for teaching me that.

Hey Android Fans!

Posted by girlie on January 8, 2013

I have a sister who is a solid android user. We’ve introduced her to another unit but she just can’t leave the brand she is using right now. She is very much into it and she always says that she’s happy with it. I wonder if she knows about ESET Mobile Security. I need to let her know since she’s an android user. This would secure her mobile device from malicious applications which is widespread nowadays. Well I haven’t really talked to her, for all I know she already has this.

Needed: Something to Reduce Pain

Posted by girlie on

Back pains are getting worst, I don’t know why. I’ve been doing exercises taught to me to ease the pain. Yes it does ease the pain but it does not go away. I wonder what I should do to make the pain go away. I just don’t like the feeling and it gets in the way with sleep. I know I should be relaxed at bedtime but how can I when you feel it? Maybe I should try this foambymail memory foam topper since I heard that it helps reduce stress. It minimizes tossing and turning too. I need anything to help me get that comfortable sleep, I need it sooo bad so I can get by during the day.

Darling Boy Turned 17

Posted by girlie on December 17, 2012

Photobucket My son is 17! Seems like only yesterday. I can’t believe I have grown ups already. I miss their toddler days, I miss their elementary school days, I miss their HS days. He is now in college and in a legit age that is. He is one of the youngest at The Ateneo and now that he is 17, he won’t feel different when asked his age. May you continue to be my sweetest and loving boy. May you grow in the Lord all the more. May He guide you in your studies. We love you my darling boy and we will always be here for you.

Make It Sound Better

Posted by girlie on December 10, 2012

Our church’s music ministry play really well. I started attending church with just the piano accompanying the congregation when they sing. Now we have a band and I like it very much. It can still get solemn contrary to what people associate bands to, and like what I said I like it better. Anyway, I wonder if everything is complete already because the band sound really good. I’m not really very familiar how it works but all I know is that there are stuff needed to make it sound good. I think one has to consider noise reduction. We all know that those hiss can sound annoying and of course the feedback too. I wish they know where to shop noise reduction because they can get a lot of savings if they do. Not all churches have funds to finance it, if you know what I mean.

They Need Protection

Posted by girlie on

Who loves to ride horses? I do! I think there comes a point in our lives that we really do. My kids love to ride horses in fact whenever we go on vacation they never miss it. Oh, now I remember something. I came across this site that sells saddle pads and I think all of us who love to ride should get one. It’s some sort of protection for the horses against rubbing and chafing. Imagine how the saddles gonna rub their backs when there are riders, and how many do they get in a day, right? Come to think of it, it’s a pity. So if we can do something about it, then we should. I know it should be the people who run the stables, but then again would they?

It’s Up

Posted by girlie on

Photobucket Finally, like finally! I was able to finish doing my tree after 2 weeks. Nope, I am not lazy. It’s just that I needed to do something in between. So how do you like it? I so love my tree, I think it my prettiest in the 20 years that I’ve been putting it. My sister said that it could be placed on display (like a showcase) in the US malls. I am so happy with that comment. It makes everything worth it.

Something for the Bathroom

Posted by girlie on December 9, 2012

I’ve always longed for a beautiful toilet and bath. Been reminding myself time and again to just do that when I have my own house. Now that I have my own house I can say that it happened. It may not be a dream t&b to others but to me it is. There’s one thing missing though. If I had my choice it would have been one of these claw foot tubs. I just find it pretty. Thing is, I don’t have enough space at home. My idea for that is to have a bigger bathroom than what I have.
