thoughts, only thoughts

from the internet


Thoughts of the day.

1) If my e-mail messages are water, I already have drowned.
2) My husband loves me more than I love him. LOL
3) If I am at home now, I won't be able to do any household chores but Facebook. Loser.
4) I am thinking of all ways and means to lose fat, but it is all in the mind. I am fat and lazy.
5) The money I have in the bank will stay there longer if I keep myself away from the stores.

Chos!

Buffet Lunch at 50% off

Last Saturday we had our Women's fellowship which turned out to be another small gathering of not only women but both men and women of our church plus Hershey. We had buffet lunch at Holiday Inn hotel where we pay only half of the original price. I bought the discounted voucher online, from http://deal.com.sg/deals/singapore which offers discounted prices for travels, hotels, spa, buffet treats, etc. It was really hassle free booking with them.

If you haven't tried yet, check this link, How it works: http://deal.com.sg/how_it_works

This is the entrance of the restaurant.

Thank God for the many blessings, everyday.

Got my free cookware

Blogging on a Sunday!

Today, I've received my free Pyroflam cookware. I'm happy because aside from the fact that the cookware looks high in quality, it is also free!

Few months ago, Giant supermarket and shop n save started a stamp collection promotion. I am an NTUC Fairprice grocery goer so I thought it would be impossible for me to collect even the least number of stamps to collect a price. The price is a pyroflam cookware. From the day we knew they have this promotion, I told M we go to Giant Tampines once a month to have some grocery shopping. Ikea is very near it too so let that day be just my stress reliever, Ikea day as well.


Thank God, I've collected 83 stamps enough to get a 2 liter round casserole with glass lid. It's retail price $85. Not bad, ey!

Just that! Happy happy!

Monday Blues

 
                                                               Picture source: Internet

Do you feel tired and the most sleepy on a Monday morning? Feels like you can't get off the bed, you drag yourself up, make it to the shower but your mind and body still want to just snuggle your sheets and your pillows. I think some of us must have been thinking of a good excuse not to go to work while trying to keep up. That is the struggle on a Monday.

Actually right now [and to most of my Mondays] I fee really really tired and sleepy. If given a chance to doze off on my workstation, I will but I am seated 2 computers away from our boss, I am stationed few steps away the entrace, so, neah, not really the best and safest spot to satisfy myself.

They say that there is a scientific explanation with this Monday morning blues. From Ehow.com it says,"Our internal clocks naturally operate on a day that is longer than 24 hours. By the time Monday rolls around each week, we've built up a sleep deficit of at least an hour. Of course, the weekend revelries and facing another work week don't help matters." Getting over weekends is not that simple and Monday as the first day of the working week is distressed.


I've read several tips to fight the Monday blues and I agree with all of them but I don't think I have faithfully done those each morning and so the result, me ranting now! LOL

Still thank God for Mondays, we cannot skip the days so Monday has to come so we can welcome the weekends. At least we've got only 4 days left and I want to be inspired by that fact.

Enjoy Monday, everyone!

We've moved house - again!

Yes we did and it was not fun at all. We were very tired these couple of days because we had to pack and unpack things, fix stuff, do some decorating to make the house a cozy home. I wish we have our own flat so we will be spared from the hassle of moving - nevertheless, thank you God for providing us with a small but beautiful house.

We had our house dedication last Thursday. Some members of the music ministry plus the elders joined us. I prepared pasta and nachos for dinner, ice cream for dessert. I know the food weren't too much, please forgive me as we were only days old in our current place, i dono where to buy the food i originally had in mind. But thank God everyone enjoyed what we prepared.

Kuya Jun shared the Word Of God through the story of King Solomon, how he gave importance to building of God's temple, how he desired the Lord to stay and live with them through His holy and magnificent temple. And with that the Lord was with Israel as promised. Like us, we are also dedicating our new house to the works of the Lord, whatever it maybe, for His glory. With 3 points to live by,

1. That the Lord will watch over your house night and day.
2. There will be no famine and diseases that could enter the house.
3. There will be plenty of blessings in Jesus name.

How kewl is that? :) And all we have to do is claim the prayers, done in His name. On the event that these bad forces pass by our home and family, we just have to go back to that prayer we claimed we received and He will not let it through.


That is my husband leading the Praise and Worship with my niece Mariel and my daughter. :D Sadly this is the only picture I took. I was so busy that night that I had no time to take pictures.

May the Lord's goodness be upon you and me, always.

I used to hate Jennylyn



Are you a hater? Have you hated someone once upon a time or you are the type that made "hating" a habit? I tried to think about this and realized that I don't really hate anyone but there is someone I don't like and get irritated even by just seeing her on TV. Aside from the fact that I hate her name, well, I am just not a FAN! Yes, she is a TV personality and she is Jennylyn Mercado. LOL. I don't really like her or maybe I should say eventually this dislike became HATE.

I feel irritated when I see her on TV especially when she became the gf of Patrick Garcia and Dennis Trillio. Naman! LOL. Feeling ko lang they are not on the same level, JM, lower. Ang bad ko. Pero what's more intriguing is I tend to stalk her. I read news about her and then hate her after. What a loser! LOL. One day I just realized that I am indeed a loser. I am wasting my time hating or disliking someone who doesn't even know me. I say bad things about her or what she does, I only see her negative side. I know that is non sense so I have changed heart. It's not that I love her already but now, I really don't care. Do whatever you want girl, we are not related to each other anyway! Haha. Be happy.

If you are that somebody who dislike or bad mouth someone else who doesn't even bother you, you are classified as a HATER. From the Urban Dictionary, a hater is:

  • A person that simply cannot be happy for another person's success. So rather than be happy they make a point of exposing a flaw in that person.
  • Overused word that people like to use just because someone else expresses a dislike for a certain individual
Another for you:
  • A person who feels anger and/or jealousy for someone who has succeeded in something they have worked hard for. 
  • A being who speaks badly,and/or takes negative actions in attempt to create problems for a successful person
  • A person that develops a strong dislike for another, solely basing their own opinion on personal judgment rather than objective merit. The formation of a hater's contempt commonly arises from jealously and/or resentment. 
  • A label applied to people who are more negative than positive when discussing another person. It most commonly refers to individuals whose negativity is so extreme that it is all-consuming. However, there are various levels and forms of being a hater, ranging from completely dismissing any positive traits or actions, to merely painting a less than flattering picture by using words with negative connotations. Hating is often attributed to jealousy, but just as often, it seems to stem from some other source.
    And a lot more at URBAN DICTIONARY - Hater?
So I realized, I think I am envious of Jennylyn because she is pretty [ as what they say], sexy [as per other people], successful [ya?], etc. <--- Look at those side comments! LOL *face palm* Just kidding, I've got nothing against Jen [wow close?] really.

Therefore I conclude haters are inggeterang palaka! LOL

But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you. - Mt 5:44


Wrath is cruel, anger is overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy? - Proverbs 27:4 ESV

 I pray that I may have this, "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness.." Galatians 5:22 ESV
