We are sad that summer vacation is almost over. But before that, we went on a road trip today as our last hurrah for 2013 summer.
Aaaah it was a great day! We definitely love S.U.M.M.E.R.!

After Hubby and I watched a movie a couple of months ago, we decided to have a quick bite at Italliani's.
We were still full after our snacks at the movie house so we just had, salad, salpicao for appetizer and a big bowl of pasta. But the servings were TOO huge that we weren't able to finish ALL of it. But the kids happily ate our left overs as soon as we got home. Instant "pasalubong"!
Just like her Ate, she also had a summer class and for her, she tried Ballet for the first time.
She enjoyed it even if it was just 12 sessions. She is now looking forward to attend more classes soon.
Good job, little girl!

Summer is almost over but the Ate is still on a high with her recent hiphop class. She loves her class so much!
We'll see if she'll push through with this throughout the year. She's enjoying it and it looks like she is really good at it. I'm so proud of her!
I noticed that budgeting has been hard these days. Prices have gone up, expenses doubled but salaries are still the same. So here's a nice basic thrift guide that I find helpful from Notepad Corner (http://www.notepadcorner.com/2012/02/basic-thrift-guide.html) that you might find it useful too...
- Unplug appliances when not in use
- Laptop usage for my online tasks, as it consumes less power than the desktop
- Buying kitchen and laundry supplies in bulk for a two-week replenishment.
- Schedule the laundry twice a week instead of every other day.
- Watering the plants with the used water in rinsing clothes
- Iron clothes in the morning
- Utilize the time feature of the air conditioning unit
- Turn off the lights if day lighting is sufficient
- Defrost the refrigerator weekly
- Replace incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs as it only use about 25% of normal bulbs and would last ten times longer
- If there’s a call for a furniture or home appliance replacement, opt for a repair at the moment while waiting for discounted bargain sale.
These are indeed helpful especially if it's the time of the month to pay tuition fees, buy school books and school supplies. It's best to be wise and thrifty to have a great future for you and your family.
This is so timely since we've been having trials and challenges for the past few weeks now...
Lord, I definitely need YOU! Thank you for being there, ALWAYS.
Song was entitled Lord, I need You by Chris Tomlin.
Happy Sunday, everyone!
If you want to cry, then this book is for you! After reading it, I was totally in tears because I was so touched by the book. I highly recommend it simply because it is very easy to read.
The Fault in Our Stars is the fourth solo novel by author John Green, published in January 2012. The story is narrated by a sixteen-year-old cancer patient named Hazel, who is forced by her parents to attend a support group, where she subsequently meets and falls in love with the seventeen-year-old Augustus Waters, an ex-basketball player and amputee. SOURCE.
I still can't forget how the story ended. I guess I will never forget it. The book is just touching. I can't wait to watch the movie.
Before my Mom went back to the States, I treated her and my sister to a mani/pedi at Spaholics. It was time for a girl bonding!
We all had a grand time, bonding while being pampered!
My Mom was so ready to go back to the States after our girl bonding at Spaholics. ♥
