Just got back from a crazy game of football!!! sooooo exhausted but happy because I got my first hat trick =] I honestly love this sport sooooo much...I wish that when I was a kid, I had a backbone and fought with my parents to play football... I did whatever my parents wanted me to do(piano, hawain dancing, jazz ballet, choir, bowling, and tennis = typical "pilipino acteebeeteeeezzz" ) although I did love doing these activitities, I really wanted to play football and hockey =p My mum use to say that those sports are for boys :( hahahah she still bugs me as to why I've been playing in a women's soccer league for 3 years when I'm "old"....whahahahahah.....I can't believe it's almost march!!!!!!! wth! where did the time go? I wish there was more time in a day=p

Happiness consists in activity: such is the constitution of our nature; it is a running stream, and not a stagnant pool.
John M. Good


I'm happy when I do things I love =) Right now, I find happiness when I'm playing football, when I'm making cards, when I'm watching CM and when I'm with the peeps I love!

The pink collection





-appreciation-






"If only people who worry about their liabilities would think about the riches they do possess, they would stop worrying. Would you sell both your eyes for a million dollars...or your two legs...or your hands...or your hearing? Add up what you do have, and you'll find that you won't sell them for all the gold in the world. The best things life are yours, if you can appreciate yourself"
-Dale Carnegie

Although I always want more in my life, I appreciate each breath I take. I am thankful and feel blessed to be living the life that I have and for all the people who I love and who love me for me. Tehehehehe a lil sappy yah? I just feel like I wanted to put that out there...you just never know what tomorrow will bring...

On a brighter note, I just finished the "Pink Collection", take a peek at the photos =)

I love words....







"Life is short, break the rules, forgive sooner, love with true love, laugh without control, and always keep smiling. Maybe life is not the party that we're expecting, but in the mean time, we're here and we can still dance"........

-Jack Smith and Bette Davis

This to me, are words to live by =]

This post is short, simple and sweet...I've posted some photos of peeps I love who help me smile and laugh without control!

cards, cards, and more cards made with love from me =]





I've been working on my homemade cards since this morning. Here are just a few of them =]

Yikes! Where has the time gone?


I started blogging on myspace forgetting that I actually already had a blog spot. I was M.I.A for a bit with life =p Soooooo much has happened since the last post. A lot of trials and tribulations, "firsts", and learned opportunities. I look at the previous posts and it's like wooooooowwwwww!!!! Here are some updates:

-Skydive : Haven't even tried or looked into where I should skydive. It got so hectic over the summer especially the past summer where I was on strike and jobless for a month and a half!

-Run a marathon: I haven't even ran yet. Don't want to pay the $$$ for a gym and it's too cold outside. I have been playing soccer once a week though but I still need to run!

-Masters in Public Health: I've been looking at a variety of universities who offer a Masters program in Public Health but haven't decided where. I am now taking an online course on Epidemiology as a stepping stone to going back to school.
-Travel back to Europe 2009: Because of the strike, I lost a lot of $ and was unable to save for a trip. I did go to NYC twice =) and had an amazing time!
-Visit the Philippines and learn about my roots : I was hoping that Teej and I would be able to go and get married in the Philippines but my parents had requested that we get married in Canada. O yes, Teej had proposed to me on Valentine's day 2009 and I said yes =]

-Get a tattoo: Like this blogspot, I forgot about getting a tattoo :( I haven't really found a design that has caught my eye yet so I guess it's not meant to be....still looking though!

-Be able to do an ollie =p: Still practicing...when the weather warms up!

-Take photography and launch a card biz : I got an Nikon SLR D80 =) I haven't actually taken a photography class but I'm teaching myself and I have an awesome mentor, my partner in crime Teej =) who is an amazing self taught photographer with a creative eye. As for the card biz...I've started making cards now en masse but haven't attempted to sell them yet.

Yikes! I have 2 more years to change the "I haven'ts". It's kinda disappointing to see that I haven't really made much progress in my bucket list but I am not giving up. I am determined =)
