Petrol Prices

Since owning a car (which is quite long enough), I have been very conscious of the fuel prices. I only fill-up my car when necessary and when the fuel prices are down. I also monitor the days when the prices are down and time my purchase. With my affiliations with the rewards card, I also can get 8 cents discount these days. It's not much as my car fuel tank can only accommodate up to about 40...

Surprising

maybe or maybe not. For somebody who loves reading, I don't own a bookmark. I have desired to own one and every time I am at the bookshop, I always checked them but I haven't taken a step to buying them. I am not sure why. I have always wanted an antique style bookmark but where on earth can I get...

Quiet Time

soon... I'm posting my last post for the hour that is. I have several opportunities to do but they will be due in the next couple of days, so no hurry. I plan to have some quiet time soon. Maybe curl up with some book with old english characters that I have loved.My little boy has symptoms of flu but still perky, not to worry about. I gave him panadol and all is well. Have updated myself with...

Wishing

That I can have a Christmas decorations such as these, a miniature maybe? But I know it is a long shot. I can't even put up a wreath. It's just too much work to do but I can admire and wish and dream as well. Maybe, this year we'll just have to visit houses and places with pretty deco instead of...

Lethargic

That's what I'm feeling most of the times these days. It seems I only have the energy to go to work, eat and tend to Jens then I'll be bushed. At 9PM, I would be getting ready to sleep. Juvenile, isn't it. You would think, I have one of those jobs retail, but I simply sit the whole day and figure things out. I think, it's more tiresome than doing manual labour. I can't seem to stop working even...

Well Behaved

When I hear parents saying that they had a hard time with their kids keeping them amuse, I always wonder how hard could it be. And when I see kids playing up when travelling, I always feel for the parents, not because I have been through it but because, I am just thankful that I am not put through it. You see, The Tatapilla is just the best kid there is. Sure he throws tantrums but not the types...

Food Fix

It was a successful day for us at the Mabuhay Festival. My friends and I met there, Mcj was very busy to come with us. Jens tag along (as he didn't have a choice anyway). The day started well for us despite some hassles on the public transport.We went there mainly for the food and of course to have a glimpse of how many Filipinos are there in Brissie. Well, there are heaps.On to the food. I bought...

The Race That Stops the Nation

It’s an understatement as of the moment although I don’t want to feel like I’m getting under because of so many things to do. You see, we are moving house. It’s been a work in progress for almost 3 weeks now. We didn’t hire a mover, just a big truck to move heavy items. We’re moving most of the stuff ourselves using the van and trailers. Now, my job is on the un-packing and sorting side. Although,...
