I am now a fan of the medical drama Nip/Tuck. So far, I haven't seen much scenery in the program aside from the beaches of Miami. I know that Florida as so much to offer to tourist. It must be pretty exciting for those people who have already seen this beautiful place. Tourism is really alive in this place. I am having fun browing travel packages especially the fun part of visiting theme parks such as the Orlando vacations.

Daddy R just landed a job in ebay. He is set to leave O.C anytime soon as he needs to relocate in downtown LA where their office is located. Pay is just a-ok. But I am hoping that their company also offers life insurance unlike the previous offer he worked for where he barely got employee benefits. I know that it’s recession time in US. So despite of the fact that I’ve been working with American multinational call center companies for 5 years already, I am afraid that I might not land a supervisory job when I get there. But I don’t have qualms being an agent again. And I’m crossing my fingers that hubby and I can work in the same office.

One of our good neighbors has to leave their house ASAP. Apparently, they were not able to keep up with the enormous amount of interest rate on their monthly amortization. I guess, it really pays off when you got to choose who among those mortgage lenders can give you the best value for their money. When they had their house mortgage, they didn’t look for more options. They just got the first one who was willing to ‘help’ them. The latest I heard is they are going to rent an apartment unit that is also within the subdivision vicinity. Too bad. Tsk tsk tsk!

I am browsing the online photo album that I have for the company. It has been 3 years now since I started working as a member of the quality department. I have so much memories from the good old days. I remember during my first year, we had our anniversary celebration theme as ‘retro'. One of my best buddies really took the time to dress up. She even borrowed her mom’s vintage sunglasses. She got the best in costume award. :)

It’s been just been two days since classes started. Unfortunately though, my nephew has not yet started attending the class. My brother just left for Singapore and the nephew fetched him to the airport. He also joined a contest (which by the way he won the first prize), and I got he got pretty tired because of it. But when he saw his new textbooks, he got pretty excited. Alas, he will be coming to school tomorrow.

While searching the internet regarding some maternity stuff, I found out that women tend to maintain 10 pounds of weight they gained during pregnancy. I am a member of various support groups for pregnant women. I used to be active in those group discussions. From those discussions, I found out that quite a number of moms have taken Phentermine 37.5 mg. It is said to be safe, affordable and effective. If doing rigid exercise will not work for me, I might try this one.

As early as now, I am already planning a vacation get away with hubby when he comes back September of next year. There are few choices in my list: Boracay (again), Batanes, Sagada , Palawan or a trip to Tokyo. Going to Tokyo has a 60-40, (possibility of 60% of going there) chance. Living in Tokyo can be quite expensive. So most probably, we will just have a domestic-bound vacation. I am torn between getting a hotel room or just rent a villa just like the Tuscany villa rentals. I have to make sure first where I can save more.

I was watching an old James Bond film (perhaps, it was a 70’s film) in one of the cable TV stations and I can’t help but wonder who is the maker of this great automobile. Apparently, it is from Ford and it comes with five generations. As I became curious about its history, I browsed this site: http://www.americanmuscle.com/browsebyyear.html. The first generation was the model that has been manufactured sometime 1964-1973. The prototype was a two-seat, mid-engine roadster. Personally, this is the Mustang model that I like the most. It was later remodeled into a four-seat car. Then came the second generation mustang (1974-1978.) The Mustang II featured innovations such as rack-and-pinion steering and a separate engine sub-frame that greatly decreased noise, vibration, and harshness. In 1979 (third generation) the Mustang's interior was re-styled to comfortably accommodate four people, despite a smaller rear seat. But Mustang only had its Mustang underwent its first major redesign in 15 years in 1994 (fourth generation). I know that the present generation of Mustang is set to come out another innovation. The 2010 Mustang, due to be launched early in 2009, has been designed to look smaller than its predecessor even though the actual dimensions are essentially unchanged.

When we were busy preparing our wedding, part of our wedding checklist is our hotel accommodation. We just don’t want to go through the hassle of fixing and bugging people in our respective homes. Through my course of finding the perfect place where we could do our wedding day preparation, I was torn on whether I should just rent a condo unit for a day, a hotel unit or a condo hotel. In the end, we ended up getting the biggest suite in the Manila Pavilion Hotel. It was a wise choice- affordable and convenient.

I have always been a fan of Korean and Japanese series. The first foreign series I learned to love is the Meteor Garden. I was a fresh graduate then and when it was shown, I got nothing to do so I have all the time in the world to watch TV all I want. It was a good thing that this Taiwan drama series was translated to local language. When Endless Love 1 was shown in GMA 7, I didn’t get to watch it religiously that is why I had to buy a DVD of it in Quiapo. It has closed captioningthat’s why understanding the series, despite of having Korean audio, was never that hard to me.
