Wishful thinking....

Once again, Justine Henin-Hardenne and Amelie Mauresmo will meet in Finals - Wimbledon. Maybe this time Mauresmo will really prove that she deserved the Australian Open trophy?



Maybe! Maybe not!

I’m crossing my fingers that Justine won’t get ill this time and will end the tour, fair for both of them.

On the other hand, I am betting all my luck for Baghdatis to win over Nadal and Federrer over Bjorkman.


Yay!

Both of my fave players were in to the semis… hopefully, will play against each other on the Finals.

My wish and desire for them.. especially for Marcos. =D







Can't wait for the semis result!

Kudos!



Got this from a forwarded email.

My admiration goes to the person who ingeniously perfected this art. He/She knows how to acknowledge and give credit to the modern day hero.

Kudos! - to the artist and to the object of his/her art.

Freezing Moment

Finally, the freezing moment for Pinoy world-wide was over. Pacman made it against Chololo.

All through out the event, I am freezing, I held my breath everytime Chololo gave Pacman a good punch or blow.

Actually, close to having a nervous breakdown. Too carried away.

But, its indescribable to see Pacman triumphs! I feel for him!

I bet all Filipinos are proud of him. ... I am!

Sci-fi Movies

I can count on my fingers how many sci-fi movies I've seen, though I certainly looooove watching movies. Movies such as these, just didn't caught my fancy.

Hubs is my complete opposite. He is so into it that you can't talk to him, let alone make any sound.

But since, I want us to do things together always, I am teaching my nerve to absorb the movies that he likes. And, I just want to return the favor because he instantly likes the movies that I will tend to watch. (thats another story to tell)



And so last night, I watched Superman Returns. The effects are great though the story is way too simple with predictable twist or no twist at all. Ohhh, Brandon Routh is simply a hunk and have an adorable face! I like his cleft-chin most. (don't know if I am making an under-statements here)



I'll rate the movie 5 out of 10! Ouch!

Didn't I tell you that I am not into it? =D

Eggs Lovers

For those of us who love eggs, here's one good news.

"Eggs already have been reinstated as a health food (the major Nurses' Health Study cleared eggs of upping heart attack and stroke risk). Now there's evidence that people who scramble, boil, or poach one for breakfast -- versus eating a bagel with the same number of calories -- bypass junk-food cravings and eat fewer calories for at least 24 hours, without even trying."

Got this article from here.

Now, I have one more reason to really like eating eggs, though, I have been an egg-hunter with no apparent reason. =D

I can eat half a dozen of boiled eggs in one setting.

No wonder why I don't really crave for junk-foods often! wink

I had been....

... partially blind for more than two months. Now, no more!

As mentioned in my previous entry, I lost my glasses when I went to my parents place last Holy Week.

It took me a while to replace them as I was contemplating if I will get transition lenses. Apparently, not!

The new glasses are a whole different type from what I used to wear. Then, I have round shaped frames... now I settled to rectangular.

Did they look good on me? (don't dwell too long on my shiny forehead---- hehehe)

Name Changing

Being married has all these hassles (no pun intended). Oppsss, sowee. I can only name one that is, changing name err… rather adding name. =P With it, comes the changing of ID’s, amendment of passport, changing of names for some club membership. What else?

It took eight months after the wedding before I change name in my SSS, Pag-ibig, Philhealth, Tax purposes, employment record, etc. I was not in a hurry so is Hubs. But he said that when I will change my family name, I should surely drop my maiden family name, like E D. P not E D-P. Yet, my work email add is in E D-P format coz, my co-workers might not recognize the new email add.

My membership card in Mabuhay Miles already bears my married name, so minus one hassle for this name changing. I recently joined so I used my married name and just submitted our marriage certificate despite the fact that my passport still bears my maiden name. I reckon, I wont be traveling via PAL internationally. =D

I just renewed as well as amended my passport last month so I am compelled to change the rest of my documents, like my membership with Qantas Frequent Flyer.

I joined QFF the last time I flew over Australia to earn the miles.

The next time that I will do, I will be using my new passport. So I better change my membership name now.

I called their office in Makati today to asked where could I send the documents for the change of name. I was advised that change of name is processed in OZ. Waaaaa!

Thanks to the modern technology. I will just scan our marriage certificate and send it through email.

Bureaucracy is highly observed in OZ but they have efficient system. I am sure, the request that I will make will soon be attended to.

What else do I need to change?
