My height has issues sometimes. There was once when a bus driver thought that I am a child. He sure didn’t see my bulging tummy then, I was pregnant with my little girl who is turning 4 soon. Also, I feel somewhat insulted when people ask if I am a nanny when I take my daughter out, just because I look so young to be a Mom.I don’t have to tell them that I am in my late 20′s. That is not of their concern anymore.

When I think how short I am, I just couldn’t stop blaming the past.It was when I should have eaten healthy foods, rested and took things slowly.I don’t blame anybody that I worked so hard at a young age. I also know that I may not have been blessed with tall genes, that my hgh level is indeed for what I am now. I just hope my offspring won’t be unlucky as me. I am blessed I was born normal,honestly.Thanks be to the Almighty.

I don’t think I will be walking to school this week for the weather is horrible. It is actually a great site seeing shower of snow flakes falling. We had snow angels yesterday but since the snow seems to stay for another week, I don’t think there is a need to stay outside. The little girl cried yesterday for the gloves got soaked and was terrified of cold. She also touched the snow with bare hands while trying to make the snowman, poor girl.

Being immobile because there is no where to go (would have loved to go window shopping)makes me feel heavy. There wasn’t a need to look for the best diet pills for women, however, if this states continues for the next few weeks, I think I would need help. Yes, I can round around the house, but I am just so lazy to do that. Especially when you got nothing to do but laze around. At least with a good weather, I do have a reason to walk to school for an hour.

Goldilocks…

Some of the foods that our friend brought for us. There were loads of them already but then I only decided to take a snap the last time. Hubby liked it, the taste is so Filipino. The bakers used to work in Goldilocks before. The price isn’t a problem if you have a connection with them, and hence our friend is a close friend of theirs, and since she said she will take care of it, I think we won’t have a problem ordering any the time we need one. So delicious!!!

I have my eyes on Buy.com’s Cyber Monday deals. I just cannot buy them directly because they don’t accept payments from this side of the world, and they don’t ship too. So sad because I actually see Vtech Reader that I want to buy for my little girl as my Christmas gift to her. It is quite expensive here so I thought I could actually save a lot. Dear friend had just sent us a special package with princesses dress up gowns for my girl and a handbag for me from the US. I don’t want to bother her because she is busy herself.

Thank you dear for the early Christmas present.

I heard that everybody in the US is anticipating BIG time to their thanksgiving dinners. I can smell roast turkeys,yummy! And also some of the students are having their time off school, a great way to escape from getting frozen, brrr really cold outside.

We tend to forget that vehicles are like humans too. We enjoy their services to the fullest as they give their best, most especially when they are well looked after. We sure can go to places we want to go and carry loads that we couldn’t carry. But the convenience they give also has a price. We’d been once disappointed with how much a car maintenance cost. We always service our car every year and brake pads is always the thing that needed change. We surely use brakes that much. Especially when living in an busy area.

I remember my first driving experience. It was scary as I didn’t know much of the controls. It wasn’t scary being in a driver’s seat, as I am a motorcyclist, but having your mind focused on many things; different country, other road users, traffic situation and driving itself challenged me a lot.

I am happy I did this thing. If I didn’t challenge myself, I wouldn’t be where I am at now.

I tried an fb application to see how well they rank human feelings towords the other. I actually got it on a friend’s wall and I was kind of interested. The application is “who loves you so much”. My cousin got his girlfriend as the answer and so he was absolutely happy. As I tried mine, the result said at first “the one you love”, which I think really is true. However, I hit consult again until it says “the one who says I hate you”. Is there any connection between the two? The application didn’t even ask facts from me. How well they know me?

I must say it is indeed a crazy one.

It’s been our practice not to give up when failed the first time. Thus these saying go; ‘try and try ‘til you succeed…, there’s no harm in trying and all’. We sure all do that. It applies to everything!

We of course have been trying to lose weight, and because we lack of determination and self discipline, we always end up a failure. Dear husband is even tired on reminding and encouraging me. That just proves that no one could help me do it but myself. Honestly, I am so weak. I could easily be moved by any disappointment. When I learn that I don’t lose a pound after a big struggle, I easily just go back to a usual me, lazy and inconsiderate. I could eat all day long without worrying of the excess weight that I quickly gain in a matter of days. Now that makes me think. What about trying a different method of losing weight? What about cutting the desire of unhealthy eating? Talk about Appetite suppressant diet pills! Is it not better than having to go under the knife when things go out of control? I’ve seen those people on TV and it scared me.

And that’s according to my observation on how my body responds. I move a lot,yes! I am sure that I do that just because I am out there everyday, walking at least more than an hour. However, when it regards to eating well, I cannot guarantee that I am good at it. That’s why I still weigh over 50 kilograms.

With everything I think of doing, it is the gym membership that a friend is kin to doing that I wouldn’t do. She was fond of it and decided to stop because she gave birth. And now that she thinks of going back, she encourages to go with her. I can do aerobics but not this time. She definitely wants to lose weight too. There are plenty of parties to attend with heavy competitions as to who looks best among their circle of friends. Well for me,my body looks the same. There never is the time that I look fabulous (I am ). I mean, sexy and slim. The easy option to lose weight fast sure is diet pill. But with my health, sure my doctor won’t allow me. He doesn’t even wants me to take contraceptive pills. Even maybe if I insist taking just the natural weight loss pills. I did mention about my throat infection and he gave me an antibiotic for that but bids me only to take it when I really needed.

He just wants us to be from all those steroids. Natural remedy still is the best.

It has been a while since I last shopped without a toddler in tow. It is quite hard having to think whether she’s just around or not because she also likes roaming around. So soon she will be shopping alone. This afternoon was quite relaxing. I went out to do some transactions in the city and the Dad pledged to look after the girl. I was relieved when I learned that they have good times playing and watching TV together. She didn’t bother looking for Mummy at all.

Well, I just spent my day looking for her clothes. She first said that she needed new shoes for school that is appropriate for the weather. I thought I could get bargains but I couldn’t find her size. The Dad actually prepared the dinner, obviously I was tired when I reached home and felt so hungry as soon as I entered the house. The smell was tempting that I went to the kitchen and helped myself to a plateful of chicken stew with pasta. My husband could also be a good househusband too.Well, let’s just leave that title to me.

The best thing working in this country, though we pay high taxes, is the benefit that you will get whenever needed. We once was laid off work, luckily we were called back. But the support during those times was superb. We were paid per week, more than what we are getting from our employer. Aside from that was the additional benefit from our local community officer. We wouldn’t have gotten it if we didn’t pay our tax.

However, there is a time limit. We are only entitled to claim the benefit for 10 months, a full year before but since recession, they’ve reduced it. The big problem will be when it’s over. Where are we going to get money if within the time limit, we couldn’t get a job? Well, I am praying that wouldn’t happen to us, God knows how much we need money to support not only ourselves, but our loved ones. I have been observing how poor our countries are. Back home, when you lose your job, that’s it! You might be lucky if you reach your retirement age earlier for your pension from the Social Security System. But if you are out of work younger, you have no choice but to live with the fact ‘no work, no money‘. But what about losing your job because of disability and you are mistreated? I know a lot of people, especially the vulnerable ones who knows nothing about the law just let everything happen, bow down their heads without fighting for their rights.
