Weekend plans

Saturday, June 21st, 2008

I don’t intend to go out this weekend. I just want to be able to relax and read. Been reading regularly again. I bought the 3 Twilight books (Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse) even though I already read the books through my ebook reader. I also bought a Julia Quinn book, a Reader’s Digest special edition, 4 interesting books that will hopefully bring my muse back hehe and a cute little notepad :)

That will surely keep me busy this whole weekend. How about you? Going out or doing something special this weekend?

Whatever, here’s hoping a great weekend for everyone! :)

One year alone

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

I came across this question and it got me daydreaming about it…

If you had to spend one year living alone in a remote cabin, what would you spend your time doing?

I will make sure that there is enough food to last a year and I will be bringing with me boxes of books, an iPod and a laptop. I will read all the books that I don’t have enough time to read now. I will be sleeping and relaxing. Listening to music all day long. I will be finishing the stories I have started writing down months, years ago. It will surely be a grand ME time all year long!

Sigh.

What about you?

Overrated

Thursday, May 1st, 2008

Don’t you just think that movies overrate love? I mean come on! It is being peddled like people are stupid and all. Take for example a new movie being shown right now. The leading man in the movie is way too old for the leading lady. And we are made to believe that they are almost of the same age and that they fell in love and stayed as beautiful as that. Hay…

I just don’t like the love angle of some movies. Movie producers are making us look stupid with all the sappy love stories they are feeding us.

Oh well, movies are like that, I guess.

My sister wants a puppy

Sunday, March 9th, 2008

beagle_new.jpgMy sister’s birthday is coming up next week. She has been requesting that we give her a puppy as a birthday gift but I am still thinking about it. I am concerned about who will take care of the puppy when she is not at home? Of course, all of us go to the office or in my father’s case, he has to take care of the family business. So I am thinking that if we are all out of the house, who will be left to take care of the puppy, right?

My sister teaches and she cannot bring the puppy with her. But since she wants one, might as well give her something that will really make her happy. We will just probably think of something, a solution to this dilemma. A beagle is what she wants. She loves Snoopy and now she wants the real one!

Beagles belong to the medium sized dog. It is a type of hound. They say that Snoopy is the most famous beagle. I believe that there is a breed of beagle that is pocket sized, small enough to fit in your pocket. And most of this breed can be found in England, where they really came from. Most beagles are tricolor, white with large black areas and light brown shading. They have a strong sense of smell. It has an even temper and a gentle disposition. They enjoy company, and although they may initially be standoffish with strangers they are easily won over. They make poor guard dogs for this reason, although their tendency to bark or howl when confronted with the unfamiliar makes them good watch dogs.

If you are looking for information on different dog breeds, you can check out DogChannel.com now. You can choose from small, medium or large breeds and you will be directed to the different breeds under it. Visit the site now for more information on dogs and puppies.

Busy, busy, busy

Friday, February 15th, 2008

Been out of the house everyday, running errands mostly. Been so busy catching up with a lot of things. If you will notice, I go online for a few hours only. Barely have enough time to bloghop to everyone’s site. But I will do my rounds this evening. Will be offline for 4 days…

My sisters and I will be going to Baguio tomorrow until Tuesday evening. My bestfriend will be getting married by Monday, February 18th. We will also be touring the city again and hopefully will bump into Pam before we go back to Manila.

I will probably just schedule a Weekend Snapshot entry as well as another entry about interim posts.

So expect a lot less of me until I come back to blogging on Wednesday :)
Happy Friday everyone!

P.S. Thank you for the tags and awards! I am a bit slow picking everything up but know that I truly appreciate all of it.

In between Friday and Saturday

Saturday, February 9th, 2008

This is a re-post…

My favorite time of week is the time when Friday is just a few hours before it turns Saturday. It means that it is still Friday and I still have a lot of time to do everything I planned for the weekend. And it still is 2 days before I get back to work! Get it? Hehehe

Normally, I am awake Friday nights until around 6am Saturday. The hours from 9pm Friday up to 6am Saturday are fun hours for me! I get to spend time with friends, sometimes offline, most of the time online. I get to listen to soothing music and everyone else is asleep. The place is quiet and I can think clearly. I get to sort out everything that happened to me the past few days and I get to plan the days ahead. This is officially my ME time.

How about you, when is your ME time?

***

You must have noticed that I posted more than the usual this week. I hope to do the same next week and keep my momentum for a long time :) Please scroll down to read more entries I posted within the week. Thanks!

For my Filipino blog-friends, you might want to visit my new blog

Happy weekend! Be safe everyone! - Sasha

The Love Month is here!

Sunday, February 3rd, 2008

Time flies so fast! It is February 3 now and before you know it, it’ll be Holy Week once again. This coming Wednesday is a red letter day for all Catholics out there. It will be Ash Wednesday already. Start of Friday fasting. Holy Week is way too early this year. March 16-23, unlike the usual first week of April that we are all used to.

Notice also how hot it already is? Summer is really here!

So you must have noticed I haven’t updated for 2 days. Here are the main reasons why…

It was supposed to be my mom’s 50th birthday had she survived her sickness. There would have been a party for her if she’s still alive. But she died a little over 2 years ago so there was none. The whole family still had dinner on her birthday, in honor of her memory.

We are looking for a university for my brother. He’ll be graduating from high school this coming April and will start college by June. My little brother’s already 16 and will soon cease to be the baby in the family. I just wish he will get to finish college and not get into bad company along the way.

I also had to take care of our trip to Baguio by the 2nd week of this month. My bestfriend Lem is getting married by the 18th in Baguio and my sisters and I are attending of course. He’s like a brother to us and had it been summer vacation already, the whole family would have been in complete attendance.

And we took advantage of the 3-day payday sale that is currently being held in some SM malls. We bought a lot of home stuff including several curtains. We are redecorating our home for the summer, making it more bright and cool to the eyes.

That took almost 3 days of my time and the reason for my online ‘absence’.

Anyway, haven’t made the move to change webhost yet. But after this recent ‘issue’ of losing 2 of my subdomains again (without anything to do on my end — so sorry Mel), I do believe that a change is really in order already. I cannot afford all these ‘issues’. Either this loss of my subdomains or downtime once more. I told them that there was a downtime the other day at around 4am. There was no record at their end.

We really need to talk, Cess. I am sorry to tita Liza and the others. I will email you about something within a day or two.

My Weekend Snapshot (WS) entry will be posted tonight. I already posted my entry in Utopia so if you have time, come visit me there.

To everyone who tagged me, left me a message or question, or have given me an award, I will all get back to you within a day or two. Thanks and I really appreciate it :)

I will be writing something about Random Blogroll as well as Redirecting Feeds to your Feedburner account. Stay tuned.

Happy Sunday everyone!
