Planning a Baptism

I remember during the time that I was planning for my daughter's baptism, a very strict requirement to our Religion. My first thing to have it done is the christening invitations, nothing fancy actually, I just wanted to have a dainty and one of a kind type since that certain occasion can only happen once to a person, thus having a unique invitations baptism should be well planned.

So what are my considerations? first should be the layout, Religious invitations should be well arranged from all the details like fonts, designs, color coordination's and even the whole write up itself. That is why I had to scout over the internet for supplier that does all of my requirements, it wasn't that hard actually for I was able to find an online shops like announcements-shoppe.com that makes beautiful and elegant invitations, even their First Communion Invitations are very nice!

True enough, with all the inspirations gathered, we were able to get a very unique invites for my first child's baptism party! :D

My friends and I are still not over our flickr shopping, in fact out great seller friends are still posting so many eye candies for us to drool over! And for some, keeping themselves from buying is near to impossible! Yes, I am one of those guilty souls! Anyways, for some time they are featuring different brands and types of bags, they also have wallets to match, fashionable watches and other jewelries like cubic zirconia jewelry! Really affordable knowing that it is from holstedjewelers.com. Well, the latter items are of course pre-order basis since some of the ladies cannot shop without enough ways that is why, they also cover for this jewelry shopping! Cool I know. Anyways, here are the two of my favorite picks from the site that I might order, really cute, something I can wear on simple occasions.

New Moon

We’re usually not quick to judge a book by its cover, but this goes to Team Jacob! The wolf gets the girl, but Edward’s clearly the one ready to howl at this image.

The snuggle pic—depicting Kristen Stewart’s Bella all wrapped up in Jacob’s (Taylor Lautner) well-toned arms as copper-eyed Edward (Robert Pattinson) moons over them—is the brand-new cover to Stephenie Meyer’s New Moon. In case you hadn’t heard, it’s the sequel to Twilight.

The revamped book jacket may not be as cryptic as, say, a flower or an apple or a ribbon or a chess piece, but it’s a bit more swoon-inducing (or should it be seducing?).

You even get a free poster if you choose to pick up the movie-promoting paperback for your 10th read-through. Now that should surely tide you over until Nov. 20.

today, Happiness is ….

1. My daughter's another milestone
2. more work
3. more money! lol
4. friends
5. family
6. keeping in touch
7. old times
8. ipod music
9. shopping :D
10. meeting up with friend over the weekend!
11. learning new things :D
    
12. photography lessons

Actually there are so many things to be thankful for, but you know it'll take me forever to write it all in here! But will surely say my prayer before I hit the bed and do the thanking to our almighty father....

otd wedding

My mom and I will be attending another out of town wedding on August, I know it's still months away but the thing is, we are already wondering how will be able to get there since it is way too far. You see, destination weddings is really not my thing, though I used to wish to have one before but now, I don't think we can squeeze so much on that travel. With a little kid in tow?! near impossible! But since my mom will be one of the principal sponsor, we have to find ways. Renting a van will be the most possible way, but it'll sure be expensive! I can just imagine how much will it costs us! We only hope that things will be perfectly arrange, no worries at all and a safe and sound travel for us so we can really enjoy the out of town wedding experience!

Airsoft hobby

Since the husband left to work abroad, his rare collections of airsoft gear was left sealed and well packed somewhere here in our storage cabinet. But those that he thought so were ready to be given away are already out. I know, he is one generous guy who wouldn't keep everything to himself. In fact he decided to give one item to each of his fellow airsoft buddies. He said that he'll most probably make use of the chance he is outside the country so he can check out stores that sells out pretty cool stuff for his hobby like rifles, co2 guns and other airsoft gears. But if in any cases, he'll probably still order stuff online from ZephyrAirsoft.com home of the best gears for this firing hobby! I wonder what he'll bring when he comes home! :D

dreaded virus

Call me paranoid or whatever because I am. And who wouldn't feel that?! With all the news about H1N1 virus spreading like hell all over the country?! This is really alarming! Schools are already cutting off their classes because cases of the virus has already entered their premises. That is why department of Health are advising parents to keep their family away from public and crowded places like malls, schools and markets. But of course, it is also advisable for parents to know the basic Cures for Ailments. More or less the parents has to be more aware and be the one to teach their kids proper observance of cleanliness and good hygiene. In another country, governments too are doing the best they can and even those private clinics makes such effort in order to the people to be aware of what awaits them if health and wellness is being neglected. There are this clinics that promotes likes this :Protect yourself from ailments and consult The Amen Clinics, your shelter house for good health. Also, more information on the Amen Clinics can be found here.
so there, I guess we better be aware of the dreaded diseases and viruses being passed around and let us keep our homes and selves always clean and healthy.

tv ads

So now I'm into tv advertisements right? Well, not exactly that much, but probably because I miss the locally made commercials nowadays. I don't know if you too notice it, that mostly the advertisements being seen on tv are made and are just bought as canned from another country. It makes me sad because behind all that are the production outfits being zeroed to tasks. And of course, it's completely like a domino thing when one falls down the others follow.
You see, one of my dream is to be able to work in a production outfit, but since fate has different plans for me I guess it'll just be a dream. But my cousin who is into this line of field might continue what I want to do. Saw her yesterday browsing this site that offers high quality digital video tv commercial production that they can use for their mini stint in the tv advertisement. Seeking affordable ways to be able to get affordable advertisement production. I hope she does well and the industry itself.

Lola Techie

a really funny tv commercial of a grandma who is into Facebook! :D

Gaming Minds

One of my friend is getting hook again with online video game competitions, just the other day she asked me to help her buy an online game full version over the web. she has finished the trial version in one sitting! she is one heck of a video game fanatic, compare to her brothers she is more into this kind of game. and to tell you, she can finish the game itself! when it terms to this game addiction she can match my boy cousin who ever since is a game and computer junk. i mean, just recently i hear him saying that he's into online golf! what?! yes, online golf playing. he even thinks of getting his own system software for his gaming consoles. honestly, i doesn't have the slightest idea what this software does, i'll check it out later. my cousin said that having that said software would do him a lot of things, it's like joining an online group with the same interest on this said sport. oh well, i just hope he does excel in this too.
