    Dress Me Up Challenge

    Wednesday, March 19, 2008
    So I was able to suppress the urge to purchase digital kits even though the husband allowed me to use his cc. With sales here and there... God! It's just so hard to draw my eyes away from the word SALE! Tsk Tsk... Anyways, I'm enjoying the freebies from everywhere so it really just takes a pinch and a blink to let the addiction pass off. *LOL*

    Anyways, have you heard about the PARTY at Cinnamon and Vanilla? Grab the freebie and participate in the Dress Me Up Challenge. Here's my take ... and it's definitely sooooo me! :)
    dressed, glammed - me

    Therapy

    Saturday, March 15, 2008
    It's my nature to spend. For example, whenever we go (window) shopping, I don't feel good without bringing anything home. Doesn't matter what it is... can be a pen, book, magazine, shampoo, lotion, ... of course I'll be happier if I take home shoes, bags, clothes and the like. Point is, I just spend whenever I feel like spending. Of course, there were tipid times, but generally speaking, I'm more of an impulsive rather than wise buyer. I feel pleasure when I shop. Well, I guess I'm no different with most of the girls in the sense that I need "retail therapy" to make me high. *LOL*

    I've been on shopping rehab these past few weeks ... meaning, I don't spend for stuff other than daily necessities. I have to think twice, thrice, or ditch the urge to buy altogether. Reason being (1) we're currently unemployed (2) we just shopped for winter clothes and stuff in U.S. I have provided for myself ever since my mom stopped supplying me moolah after college. Never tried taking breaks in between jobs. If I have vacations, they were all paid leaves. So the thought of "no income" makes me feel lost... and it sometimes does freak me out. :( Oh anyways, it's a little too early to worry for now since we've just been here for a month. I'm praying really hard that we get a job really soon.

    To make-up for the shopping rehab, I do scrap therapy. I begged off from my CT responsibilities at Scrapdish for the month of Jan-Feb. So I tried to catch up for the Feb-March deadline. My mojo was quite active and I was able to produce 2 LOs this week! Here they are (click photo to see credits):

    I miss my Mom :(

    Crazy Cousins
    My first take on photo extractions (I did some before but not for digiscrapping).
    Time consuming but I'm starting to get the hang of it. :)

    Ow, did I mention why we're on ober tipid mode these days? Making up for the big cash out last month for this and this. *LOL*

    Next up, I have to do catch ups on Project 52 and photos of our US trip.

    Digiscrap Find

    I was blog hopping and saw this in Nathy Geuens' blog... The products are amazing and they have an openning sale! Tempting really but I don't have any cc yet as of now to do any purchases. :( I see if I can "bribe" the husband to get me some stuff in the shoppe. *grin*

    thirty one

    Wednesday, March 12, 2008
    The husband just turned 31 last March 3. I had a job interview that morning at downtown area. After the appointment, we had lunch at a nearby thai restaurant called Salad King. This is our very first family celebration since we moved to Toronto.

    Side note: I didn't have a gift for my husband dear on his birthday :( Hay!!! ang hirap mag-isip ng regalo para sa lalaki!

    Side note 2: We had dinner with my friend Carol that night... and man, the one and only waitress of the restaurant really has a horrible attitude! Sarap sabunutan! And the meal wasn't that good either. :(

    P.S. Girls, thanks for leaving messages here. I do read all of them but please excuse me for not replying. I'm trying to catch up on a lot of things these days... review for interviews, post processing of photos, digiscrapping, blogging... I do hope to be more "visible" in the coming days.

    While current technology doesn't provide a way to permanently zap my freckles, I will learn to love them for the meantime.

    Unbelievable as it may seem, we're finally tying the knot on Jan 21, 2007. This is an online journal that documents every tidbits of our wedding preparation as we savour every moment of it.
