For Julia

27210julia

It’s not too late to make a layout for Julia’s first picture after giving birth.

 

This was taken by my Mom thru her 6030 mobile. Mother knows best, hehe! I’m still getting around tweaking tools in PhotoShop and thankful for some YouTube tutorials online, I’m getting the hang of it. I’m not giving up. I can do this.

First Layout

forushe Last night online friend Shey stayed online with me and teach me basic stuff with digiscrapping. I had fun and I said to myself that finally, I’m able to do it with PhotoShop! I was using the old school PhotoImpact. I thought at first that I will not be able to do it, but I did! And I’m proud of myself.

 

Mommy Kaje adviced me to join the Pinoy Digiscrappers to get ideas however, the address is blocked here. Need to ask hubby to get me something to work on it – as soon as possible.

 

I’m getting the hang of it. I love the creations of my big sisters ate Litzie, Mommy Kaje, Ms Jenny L., Shaye, Chikai and Diane. Oh men! You should see their layouts. So real! Diane too is one of my favorite digi scrapper. Her ideas are so unique. I only have like 8 elements on this layout, and it took me an hour. Her layouts have dozens of elements. It’ll take me a month to create such, LOL! I’m having a hard time bringing the elements backward and upward and on top, ugh! Lots of tweaking to do and tutorials to learn from. I’ll learn from it… slowly but surely. Insha Allah.

Online Purchases

A dear friend online ate Faye is selling genuine Coach bags. I’m helping her out to sell here in Qatar as well. My colleague just received their purchases two days ago and I’m so happy that they love it. My friend bought two bags and I’m thankful that the transaction went well – slight delays but better late than never.

I’m thankful that both of them liked the product, especially dear friend Adnan. He drooled over it actually, hahaha! I’m thankful as well that the packages arrived safe and again no signs of harm.

Right Time

The time is always right to do what is right.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

 

And yes, there’s always a right time for everything and everything has the right time. Hubby and I watched last night “Sex and The City – The Movie” on OSN Network and we had fun watching the movie. Hubby was hesitated at first with it, but after a lot of convincing, he was able to finish the movie with a question “When’s the part 2 coming out?” – ah… hmm… he’s that excited? Ah yap! He’s actually curious regarding Samantha’s role. LOL! Guys will always be guys.

 

Well, there was a part when Carrie and Miranda was having a valentines dinner and Miranda admitted that she said something to Mr. Big that made him decide on marrying Carrie and of course we all know that it made a big impact on Mr. Big’s decision reason why for the last minute he backed out. Well, Carrie asked Miranda, “When’s the right time?”, so it happened that there’s always a right time for saying the truth.

 

Well, tomorrow I have to work again. And I’ll be facing another week of work loads. Will be talking one on one with the team, and I have the feeling that tomorrow’s the right time to make it right.

Who Are They?

Childhood Friends

I was browsing FB this morning and I came across two people who were very close to me when we were still at the age of 6 and 7 years old. They were my childhood playmates. I lost track of them when I left to stay with my parents and continue my primary school and secondary school in Saudi Arabia. I still remember that we used to write snail mails before, but I guess writing isn’t that fun especially if you can find good friends who can stay with you all the day.

 

I haven’t seen them both for a long time.

 

Except for Playmate #1 who were able to keep in touch with me before I left to Qatar. We had dinner at Antipolo and had dates with 2 guys who happened to live in the same subdivision where we live. After that, I lost track of her again. But during my Friendster days addiction, we were still exchanging messages every now and then and she was shocked because she found out that I got married thru viewing my photos. Well, she shocked me as well because that time she just broke up with her long term boyfriend who chose his career over love. I consider Playmate #1 as my childhood best friend. She’s currently working at one of the best and famous company who holds a big name in let’s say “nutrition” in the Philippines and I’m so proud of her for making it this far. She had grown successful in work and beautiful young lad – and I think she’s happy and content with her love life right now. I can see it in her smiles.

 

Playmate #2 is now engaged with her long time boyfriend –  I think. Saw it in her photos in FB. I miss this girl so much! We haven’t talked for like ages. I can’t even remember the last time I saw her in person. Come to think that we used to play every afternoon in their house that I used to stalked out of the house and escape the afternoon nap time just to play games with her. But we have different perspective in life. I’m a person who can stay in the house all day and can watch cartoons, while she’s type of person who can stay out with friends and mingle with different people. Well that’s what I think. She has a strong personality and she forgets while I don’t. We used to be close, much closer that Playmate #1, but then again our friendship is not special I guess. I don’t know where she’s working right now. I don’t even know where she is. But I know she’s happy with what life has given her.

 

All I can say is that I surely miss both of them and they’ll always be my childhood friends.

Dining Table

Someone told me that the best and perfect way to bond with the family is at the dining table. Probably because this is where all families sit together and rant about their day sometimes and usually unusual topics are being opened up while eating and it’ll all start by the sentence “So Sweety, how was your day?”. Well, our future address doesn’t a big space for a long table that 10 people can sit it and eat together, but we have allotted like 4 or 6 chairs that can sit in.

 

In this dining table, 4 people can sit only because of the fixed stand on the table. I was thinking of this one but then what if more people will come, it’ll be hard to pull a chair in between – knowing that there will be no space for it.

And here’s another idea as well. The sit covers are nice and clean looking. But I’m worried about the white color. But the good thing about it is that the table stand is round so no worries at all to add another chair.

Harvest Pedestal Dining Table

 

Well, we can always sit up the living room to eat and we’ll just set up the table for the food. Our family’s used to eat in the living room while watching TV, and if there’s a special guest, we’ll all set the table and eat in the dining area. Insha Allah God willing, we can have this set up as well in our future address.
