A dip in the pool
Filed Under: And Think @ January 6, 2012 | Comments Off
Some habits are really hard to break.
My friend has this habit of dipping in the pool and soaking for an hour or so before going to bed. It has become a habit he cannot go to sleep without doing it. And now that it’s cold he still does it thanks to the raypak pool heater that he has at home. If not for that, I am sure he will freeze his ass off dipping in the pool every single night.
After his nightly dip, he goes to sleep like a baby. That’s why he has to have a dip otherwise he gets restless.
Bat those eyelashes…

This year is the time for conquests! One of those conquests will be in the area of love. 
My single friends and I have been talking about improving ourselves. We want to find partners this year and if it means burning the midnight oil reading beauty tips from the experts and discerning the real versus the fake ones in eyelash growth products reviews, then so be it! We are ready and we will conquer the beauty arena if need be!
We are so focused on our eyelashes, to tell you the truth. I think we are so inspired by the celebrities sporting gorgeous eye make-up that we also want the same for us.
Let’s go skiing!

So hey the gang is going skiing, would you like to go with us?
That’s what my friend asked me over the phone when they she called me up the other week. Like I can really go with them! I’d love to wear one of those bogner ski wear and go ski with them but it’s just impossible with the load of stuff I have to do both for work and for my personal life.
There are days when I envy those people who can go on trips at the drop of a hat. Those people who doesn’t have to worry about the money they are going to spend because they are only working for themselves. I can’t do that but I am hoping soon I will be able to at least spend more for myself.
A new one coming up!

Let me tell you what I’ve been working on for a few days since the 1st of January hit the calendar… another blog dedicated for my love of coffee! Sshhh!
I know, I know. You’ll probably say, “not again!” but I love writing about something familiar and there’s nothing more familiar to me than a cup of coffee anytime of the day!
Anyway, for me coffee is always a good idea. When there’s nothing else to do but stare in space, getting a cup of coffee is the one that saves the day for me.
Will you read my new caffeine-induced blog?
The best gifts
Filed Under: And Think @ January 6, 2012 | Comments Off
I am not really good in finding the best gifts for everyone I know. Most of the time I try to find out what they want. Someone wants an equestrian boots, that’s what I got the person. Someone wants a journal, I got one for her. But then there are those persons who just say ‘it’s up to you what to get me’ and those are the ones that boggle my mind!
What do I get them?
Thank goodness for gift ideas I found online at least I was able to buy great practical gifts for the ‘others’, the ones I didn’t know what they wanted so it’s up to me to choose for them.
Yoga to fitness

As part of Jenni’s quest to getting fit this coming year, she asked her sister to get her resistance bands. She will enroll in a yoga class. She already has some of the stuff she needs and the only one she lacks is the resistance bands and she doesn’t have enough funds to get it therefore the next best way is to ask her sister for it.
Jenni has always been overweight and for the past three years she was able to lose a relevant number of pounds that she’s been carrying around for years and years. Now she just wants to maintain the weight that she has now and continue living a healthy life.
Less of a hassle

Can you imagine a supermarket or a big store where there’s quite a long queue and there’s no barcode scanner online? Horrible! I am sure people lined up will be complaining, cranky at the very least. If the same people will come back to shop again, lucky business you have!
It is best to have a barcode scanner for your store. It is less of a hassle for your customers and will be more accurate in tracking your sales. You want repeat customers, right? Then this is one of the ways in making them patronize your store. Get them something to make their shopping experience more convenient and they will come back for sure.
Happy 2012 everyone!

Still my choice

I’ve been checking long forgotten receipts of this year and I noticed how many Starbucks receipts I have… a lot! I think I have drunk hundreds of cups of coffee from them. No kidding!
Well, no regrets. Starbucks coffee is really one of, if not, the best tasting coffee that is still affordable for working adults like me. Even students can fit it in their allowance.
Hey, this is not an ad for them. I am really writing this because I like Starbucks coffee!
A proposal in the offing?
Filed Under: And Think @ December 25, 2011 | Comments Off
I am putting it out there that I know this person close to me will be getting married next year. Yes, next year! You know why I am confident of my ‘prediction’? Because of the diamond engagement rings that I heard the guy was talking about! The guy whom the person has a relationship with. So I am waiting for a proposal to happen anytime soon!
Well, they are of age. In fact, they have been talking about marriage for years but the person close to me is hesitant about marriage with all the responsibilities she still has. Plus, she wants them to be stable financially before tying the knot. I know she is now ready.
I wish them all the best in life!
Family man

I admire married men who are truly thinking of their families first before their own comfort. This old co-worker of mine got a reward card from a company that he had a transaction with. He could have used it for himself but immediately upon receiving the card he called up his wife to tell him the good news. He began planning a trip for them and their two kids the weekend he received the card. We were all listening to him talk about a place outside the city he saw in a newspaper ad. At the end of their conversation, we converged upon him and asked him where the place was! He was shaking his head, not sure whether to berate us for eavesdropping or to just go look for the newspaper ad that he put in his files.
Hahaha!
In the end he told us about it, found the newspaper ad that we photocopied and he took his family to that place that weekend. Such a good family man!
Christmas morning ;-)

My mind is extremely fogged today. If I can have it my way, I’d stay in bed after having a cup of coffee. I’d celebrate Christmas morning alone where it’s quiet and less messy and there’s nobody to please!
Merry Christmas to all of you!
Sorry for the cranky mood. I just want more sleep but I have to get up coz people are coming…
