bye bye Green

my Green baby was picked up earlier today by a Errol, a sweet boy, who’s giving his girlfriend with the gift of puppy. He seems like a good kid and I’m praying Green will give his new owners as much joy and love as he has given us (and they better take care of my Green!).
I admit I cried, and it was a bit funny because Errol was apologizing to me! (baligtad mundo). They also reserved Pinkie and will pick her up on the 20th. That leaves me with 3 puppies who are looking for loving, gentle & responsible pet- owners (or parents, as I often refer to them as my babies).
sigh. i do miss him. he was the first pup who bit me!

1 Jul 2010I’m feeling rather down tonight, as I’ve been getting a lot of texts from people interested in my puppies. Although I know I can’t take care of ALL of them and they might risk barking our house to kingdom come (9 dogs!), I can’t help but feel very sad at the thought of someone finally picking them up. I’ve been there since the night they were born, and up to this day (they’re 6 weeks as of today), I hug & kiss them goodnight. HAAAY. emotional attachment is the shit.
baker’s hat = on!

1 Jul 2010but only from the box (baking from scratch left a bad taste in my mouth – gumawa ako ng cake before at pwede shang maging hollow block sa tigas). Maybe in the future I can try again! But for now, as long as it tastes good, I don’t care if it’s from a box or from scratch (take that elitists! )
wish baking were more of a science than an art though…

yeahhhhh.. pasalubong ni mahals galing abrowd. hehehe. mahal neto sa duty free hah! $21!!! kalokohan! (pero maghohoard na siguro ako next month kung di pa toh lumabas dito sa pinas..)
according to what i’ve read so far, dunhill revamped its packaging last 2009 (i guess that’s why napull-out ang mga dunhill sa pinas at nagkaron ng panic attack si hrudu at titakosivilma).
The Russian consumers will be the first who see the new stylish Dunhill packaging. The cigarettes are produced at St. Peterburg factory using new Reloc technology and available at retail from April 2009. source
the reloc technology is supposed to lock in freshness and ensure quality even after you’ve opened the pack (alam naman natin ang lasa ng lipas na yosi diba? or hindi? heh.) Now whether it’s effective or not, I still have to check.
ang cool din naman ng mga yosi na toh, nagiinnovate. I guess that’s what you do when most countries in the world want to stop its citizens from smoking
any feedback on Newfield International?

23 Jun 2010I always see their ad on the Sunday classifieds… and I’m actually interested to take classes. I need more web design exposure - in dlsu we had graphics/web design subjects, but seriously, that’s very much antiquated because I remember editing my photos on Adobe Photoshop 5, and coding my html on NOTEPAD. tell me if that ain’t jurassic enough?
Ang mura lang, P1,999. and forever na ata yung promo nila. When I visited their site, I didn’t see any information on web-graphic training, but instead found call center training.. so… ewan. One thing that’s stopping me also is the distance… anu ba… TIMOG. Pero, let’s see. I still have to do my research. Will update this post if I find anything new.
Updates – check the comments section! Thanks to everyone who posted comments, it’s a huge help to those looking for info!

22 Jun 2010Adorable!!!! if i had a bigger house/lawn, i’d keep them all! but i can’t so we’re selling them… actually, just thinking about selling them is making me cry, but if the new owner promises to love them as much as i do, i’d feel better. in tagalog, mas maluwag sa kalooban kong ipauubaya ang mga tutang ito…

I am copy/pasting this from the huffington post so I will always remember. Maybe you should too?

4 Addictions That Destroy Your Dreams. They’re not the addictions you’re most familiar with—alcohol, drugs, gambling, and such. Instead, what’s discussed here are the roots of so many people’s issues—issues that are often the true causes of destructive personal behavior. Offered by Tom Ferry, author of Life! By Design, the addictions are:
1) The Addiction to opinions of other people. As a society, we’re addicted to what others think about us and how others’ views of the world affect us.
2) The Addiction to drama. Some people are drawn to and consumed by any event or situation that occupies their thoughts and fills their mind with negativity, which often brings attention to them in unproductive ways.
3) The Addiction to the past. These people have an unhealthy attachment to events or situations that have occurred in the past. They’re stuck in how things used to be.
4) The Addiction to worry. This addiction is comprised of all the negative and self-defeating thoughts that make us anxious, disturbed, upset and stressed, that hold us back in life.
TAKE THE QUIZ:
