When I was in highschool, I used to think about what my College course would be. I wanted Nursing, Psychology and Accounting. I never thought I would end up with Computer Science. I know that you will earn a lot when you are in Accounting field. Especially if you are one of those CPA's from Las Vegas accounting firm. My friend who is now in the US is an accountant and she is really doing well. The only downside on this course is that it is pretty stressful especially during month ends. I remember my friend would tell me that she would always stay in the office up to midnight just to finish work. I guess that's the reason why most CPA's are pretty respected in their area. Just like KondlerCPA wherein they are the leading accounting firm and that they make sure that they provide value to their customers as well as their stakeholders.
Ate A was so happy last Sunday when she got Tita Aggie/Martha's gift! It was part of MBAP's Christmas exchange gift.
I now, this is a bit late now. But I still want to share our few photos during our Trick or Treat at The Podium last October 31, 2009.
As much as I want gold as Hubby's gift for Christmas, I don't think he can afford it. (*grin*) But maybe I can save up on my own for this. After all, it is an investment. Yeap, not the typical jewelries that are available in the market but gold or silver bars that you can buy at Monex Deposit Company. I know I have a long way to go before I can purchase one but who knows someday I can invest on one of those. Monex Deposit Company or MDC is one of the leading companies when it comes to selling silver, gold or other precious metals and coins and investing in them would be safe. They can even personally deliver it right at your doorstep.
Yes, that's us!
Taken during our Halloween party at our friend's house last October 30. It was decided last minute that parents will wear costumes too. At first, we decided that only kids will wear costumes. But up to the last minute, we were forced to wear one too. HA!
So there.
Yes, you can laugh now. (*GRIN*)
I came across this article this morning and I just wanted to share it here.
6 Natural Remedies You Probably Already Have
1. Ginger
Ginger (or ginger root) is one of my most favorite spices. It has been used in Asian cooking for years, and has a wonderfully distinct taste and smell — it’s been used over the years to disguise the taste and smell of medicines.
2. Garlic
Garlic belongs to the onion family and is another root I use quite a bit in cooking. It has a strong taste when raw, but it gets mild and sweet on cooking. Garlic is known for its antibiotic properties, and is also a powerful antioxidant. Garlic helps control cholesterol, too.
3. Honey
The benefits of honey are known worldwide. It has been known to energize the body, boost immunity, help with cuts and bruises, and works wonderfully on coughs and colds.
4. Turmeric
Turmeric is a key ingredient for many Indian, Thai and Malay dishes. It is known to be a really effective antibiotic, due to its antiseptic properties.
5. Pepper
Pepper is a widely available spice, and it is known to stimulate taste buds and improve digestion. As with garlic, it is hard to use pepper directly, so it is best to incorporate pepper into cooking.
6. Cloves
Cloves are known for their antimicrobial, antifungal, antiseptic, antiviral, and even aphrodisiac properties. Traditionally, cloves were used to reduce bad breath.

As mentioned in my monthly round up, we had exactly 5 trick or treats. Ate A was happy but Hubby and I were tired. Well, as long as the little girl is happy, then we are happy too. It was a hectic weekend but at least it was fun. We were so tired that I didn't have time to do some exercises anymore let alone go to the gym and workout on one of their machines there like the dip machine. I was actually planning on getting a treadmill or any other machine that I can use to work up my body. I can feel my body getting weaker everyday because of lack of exercise. I hope I can sign up in the gym one of these day. Hopefully before the holidays would start.

(*grin*) What were this month's disappointments? - Ate A was brought to the ER last night because something was painful in her eyes but she got better already after a few drops of medicine What were my accomplishments this month? - Baby A is almost 1 year old :D I admit October just flew by just like that. I can't believe it's already November. A few more weeks and it's going to be Baby A's first birthday. Where did all those days go? It's going to be a year from now ever since I gave birth to Baby A. I feel like it was only yesterday. My weight has not even gone back to my pre-pregnancy weight! I look like I'm still 3 months pregnant especially if you focus on my belly. It makes me realize that I really need a thermogenic fat burner. I know I just need some exercise to control my weight gain but I just can't find the time to do it! Anyway, so many things to look forward to this month! It is going to be a fun month for us!
Yesterday was Ate A's first Halloween party sponsored by her school. It was fun. But I can say that, the Dada had enjoyed more than Ate A. :D There were games for the kids, costume parade, snacks (the food was overflowing), the circus act show, and of course the traditional trick or treating.
We were so desperate for Ate A to get a prize so when the Teacher asked 5 Moms and 5 Dads to go up the stage, I FORCED Hubby to go up. He was more than willing. :P They played "Name that Tune" game. Thankfully Hubby is a fan of videoke so their group won! HA! Check out the photos of the Dada while on stage.
Looks like he was having fun huh!? LOL!
I loved the circus act show done by the Golden Show. It was hilarious but pretty stressful too. The kids loved the show so much. If I still have a budget for Baby A's party, I would surely get them. Oh well, maybe in one of the next parties of the girls perhaps.
So there's the girls' second trick or treat for this year! There are 2 more to go. Is Ate A getting tired of being Tinkerbell!? Naaaah, she even wants to be Tinkerbell next year too! LOL!
