Friday = Coffee Time

My gurl Khrysta have been telling me this brewed coffee served somewhere in SM North that she thought i would love it. Come Friday last week, she invited me to try this coffee that she's been telling me. And to my amaze, i love it! surely it aint a wasted friday that i have.. It was like 8:30 in the evening and i got my first brewed coffee of the day. The coffee shop that she's been telling me is DOTS & MORE located at the garden near Figaro outside SM NOrth Edsa facing the busy EDSA itself. Before i sipped the coffee she reminded that i might not be able to sleep in a couple of hours, and the effect of it will take hours after i drink it all. To my curiosity i just simply took every minute and every sipped i had with the coffee.



The weather wasnt perfect, gloomy cold weather. Minutes after we had conversation with my Gurl, she unexpectedly saw her friend Prudence (which i should say My New Found friend) who at that time were just on the other side of the shop with her friend, we invited them in to our table and have full of chit-chats. We hurriedly went to another place when the big heavy rain came in. Since Figaro was just on the other side, we decided to stay there.

The rain got even mad... hehheh.. the space wasnt good enough for us, good thing we had two umbrellas (imagine? umbrellas at the coffee shop). The night's life didnt stopped there, we had great time, coffee made us awake all the time. The so-called-little-typhoon stopped.

Hmmmm.. well, of course two coffees for the night is not enough, and still the brewed coffee i had at Dots & More keepin me alive. Yes i was hyper. So Khrysta and I decided not to go home yet, instead we'll have another coffee at Starbucks! (bloated sa kape? meron ba nun?heheh) we stayed there till 4 in the morning and headed home and had another coffee.. (that how addicted iam with Coffee, help me resist with this addiction).

COffee night was a great night with Wonderful Friends!

Tuesdays with Morrie


I went to National bookstore yesterday and got the chance to buy books. It was in plan to buy three books-The Alchemist (which ive been longing to have one copy of it, coz i so love the book plus the author Paulo Coelho); Notes from my Travel by Angelina Jolie (which made me really curious about whats inside); and 101 Ways to Spoil my Husband....

Those were supposedly the books that i should have this week, unfortunately, all three were not available. Too bad huh? But that didnt stopped me from buying books of course, i should have to. It was in great time for Mitch Albom's Tuedays with Morrie was available (i was searching for this couple of months ago, but to no avail), it was by-the-way the last copy that the bookstore had. I grabbed that one and added Paulo Coelho's Eleven Minutes.

Tuesdays with Morrie inspired me a lot of things and a lot of thoughts about Life. I highly recommend this one to everyone. A must-read book that you surely would love and wont stopped reading it. I was in deep thirst while reading this, lots of thoughts came into my mind that Mitch have answered after reading it from cover to cover.

I hope you guys would have the chance to read the book. Kudos to Mitch Albom for the wonderful thesis he made.

Till next time then, gotta read Paulo's Eleven minutes now.. hehehehe.. can't wait to read it right now..

ciao!

verse of the day

“Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is kept safe.”- Proverbs 29:25

i dont have a bible and the only way to get me to the words of God is through here

have a nice gloomy day everyone!

9 words women use


as i was busy talking with my husband online, i saw this in my multiply posted by my online friends. i told one by one to my dear husband and discussed each one on whats his point of those common words used by women.. and damn! he made it all right...( i sure know one thing, you know me a lot My Ipo huh? heheheh)








here are the 9 Words Women Use:

1) FINE: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

2) FIVE MINUTES: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

3) NOTHING: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.

4) GO AHEAD: This is a dare, not permission. DO NOT do it!!!

5) LOUD SIGH: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statment often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)

6) THAT'S OKAY: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's Okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

7) THANKS: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome.

8) WHATEVER: Is a women's way of saying $%#@ YOU!

9) DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT, I GOT IT: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking "What's Wrong?" For the woman's response refer to # 3.

hmmmmm.. alright, alright! IM GUILTY.. LOL

HTML-CSS

alright i know some of you know bout HTML and CSS.. and im so damn clueless with this, just few hours ago, i read infos about this just to change my profile both in my blogspot and multiply. So tired to read for it really didnt catch my interest, or shall i say i found it really hard? hahahahah... this whole techy thingy must be one on top of my list... grrrrrrr...

a new bike, sunday church


just want to post this lang this time.. heheheh.. alright, alright! My charles has a new bike (it aint actually as new as "new" (u know what im saying right?) hehehhe.. a kind friend of charles gave it to him... and whoever you are, i thank you super BIG! hehehehe... for you made a big smile to my husband, you got the heart that is so much kind.. and I know God made this way & definitely has a good purpose. Well, anyway, i am very happy as well, heheheh..

enough with happiness.. there's just something with this bike that made me want it so badly right now! its the same as the bike that Angelina Jolie had in her Tomb Raider Movie ( yeah, it aint same brand, but mind you, it just a li'l bit same as she got, just agree with me alright? LOL) hmmmm.... cant wait to ride that one!


well, so much for that bike thingy :) i skipped from church today hmmm im sad about that, well to those who dont know me that much, i am the kind of person who dont go to church every sunday but im the type of person who Believes in Him in every way... Faith is more important to most of us. (just please dont argue with me why i dont go to church, ok?) we all have our own belief, that is im sure of and i wont questioned whats yours.. But in every way, i know God will be with us all the way...

p.s. got the chance to talk to my ipo online...till almost 4am in Colorado (i know i bugged him all the time to get online, but what shall i do, i terribly miss him)

and oh, wasnt able to read notes for school (ohmygawd!)

to sum it all, my day was great.... hope u guys too..

drastic change


im adjusting.. yes iam.. for seven years that ive been out from school, i felt like this whole new thing to me are indeed NEW. I failed once, and i dont want that to happen again, i know im not that good in accounting, but im sure and confident of myself that i can do it, hahahah.. conceited???? well anyway, if and only if i cant make it this time, i know there'll be a reason behind that, but i wont stop until i can have the license.. i stopped before due to my brilliant attitude that no one can understand (in other words, a big bummer! faulty fern!) but hey dont fret for i changed, the only constant in this world is change, right? and iv learned a lot.. not just a lot, but a lot lot lot more.. heheheh.. And i know God is there.. Some say its impossible, hmmm...its impossible, yeah i know very impossible for someone like me to have some changes in life.. but thats how life it is..

alright, i sometimes slept when reading notes of accounting.. (the pic serves as proof, my dear sister took me pic while i fall asleep one night in my room) i sometimes got tired, and BORED.. but i think, if i just have to look forward, i know i will be happy with this hardwork... i wont stop, i wont quit, i will and can survive with this, i may dont have moolah like i used to, coz i have a job to support me, but im sure enough that this whole thing that being supported by my husband, is quiet interesting and challenging for me.. heheheheh... God will be there and God will provide. I will keep on prayin and serve him as his wonderful daughter.. My patience is still there, and most especially my Faith & Love... as what Rica Peralejo would always say in her blog in every minute God made a change in our life.. hmmm that just surely made me realize and thought that its true... (for better is what i meant for, ok?) God made wonders i know.. heheheh..

for this i know, i will make it with full force of studying of course, to make myself confident when the time of exam comes and with the help of God above..

ill update it in here when that time comes..

God bless everyone and have a happy weekend... ciao!

My Forever Pillow, My Soldier


My Wonderful Ipo-Charles,

Its been one year, three months that i havent seen you personally & touch every cell in your skin. I know you are doin so well in God's grace, and getting stronger everyday while busy yourself doin the therapy for your leg and patiently working for the hardest job in the world.

"Iam doin okey my Love, coz i have you" are always the great words i hear from you whenever i ask "How are you?" over the phone. And even before i ask you on that, there's always a big smile that i feel from you over that long distance call i always made for you, that giggles me at all times coz i know ur happy when i called. The feeling of knowing that you are happy whenever we talked, really made me feel so special coz it shows how much i mean to you.

I always believe that communication is one best thing to make both lovers stay stronger. And without sharing it with you about that, you communicate with me even without asking you to do it with me. Did you know that, in that little way you made me love you more and more each day? Why? coz that just simply means you love to talk with me, you look forward everyday to talk with me & lastly you made it feel for me that you love me. I felt so warmed that i have someone in this world who feels the same as i felt for him. That someone in the other side of the world makes me believe that his real.

Real? did you remember my dear ipo, on how many times i always asked you the time we both discovered how both our love has developed for the two of us? yeah i know i was totally annoying kept on asking you, but you didnt made me feel that you were annoyed but you just simply say that "im real, and i swear it to you".. Those promises made me trust and believe you even more, coz i have felt that from the time we started talking. And i love you even more now for you are just not real, you are as well genuine.

The Start.. hmmm.. how did we end up us couples? funny it is that we met over yahoo messenger, both strangers, both dont have any ideas with whats with it, but we exactly both love and enjoying every minute of it. I remember it was mid of December in the year 2002, that i was curious with your yahoo id, where at that time i was so damn bored exchanging notes and messages to those boring peeps online. You, yes YOU! made me feel that people online are not boring.. hahahhaha.. but you are just the only person that i known online who is not boring... why? coz u are smarter than anybody else. you talked a lot.... you said a lot... you whispered a lot... in those times that we both didnt agreed but only in our minds that we are goin to get online and talked during weekends, sunday here, saturday evening there... hmmmm.. wasnt it great that the Lord Above made ways for us to talk? and yet suddenly after few months of talking as "close-online-friends", the time has changed. You were deployed to Iraq and Our conversation had suddenly gone.

I was not happy with that situation coz i have loved talking with you even if we didnt hear each other's voice, even if you treated me as just a friend online.. I thought by then, sad to say, you are dead and now in God's hands due to the deadliest war you have been.

I never had forgotten you, coz you were in my mind, i prayed for you to the Lord above that he will forever guide you with him.

Months after that, i was attached with somebody special to my heart, and my thoughts of you have vanished. I was inlove, young at heart at that time, inlove to the point that i lost love to myself which lead me to lost everything, my family, my wonderful career & myself. I was all by myself then, searching for my own soul to heal everything and repair what has to be repair. But after that stupid love i had with that man, i was depressed. But with that depression, God is the only person that im so attached with, to give me strenght, to give me someone who would love me unconditionally and willing to accept me as WHO IAM.

After years or months, I never thought that God seriously took my request. He gave me YOU. Its so amazing that i saw you online and was so shocked that you were online on that Saturday afternoon while i was overtime at work. For all ive known, you were already dead. I didnt expect that to happened. Without second thoughts, i send message to you with a simple "Hi". Minutes after that, you replied, and you amazed me with your response, a long message telling me everything and anything to let me know that you still remember me... I never expect that kind of message coz with just my simple 'Hi', you remembered a lot, and you were happy i finally contacted you...

Every first greetings i have with you, every single word i sent you, you amazed me with your wonderful responses. I know by then, that God made ways for us to be happy and finally will say what has to say and felt for each other.

My dear ipo, the love we have is so amazing, you were the least person i expected to be my husband. The person i never expect who will love me unconditionally. But God works for us. God is so good for giving me the perfect Man i ever wanted. And that im proud that YOU repaired my life, let me search my soul, give me freedom, understands me even in my stupidiest thoughts & actions, you made me get back to whom i am coz of the precious Love you gave me.

I love you my Charles, and always remember, i will be forever a proud Mrs Ferna Mae Scarce.

Your undying love, your hope and your faith for us made me feel stronger everyday without you by my side. You made long distance relationship works for us, with God to guide to make this all happen.

My Forever Pillow, you are my special someone just for me.

ill be missin the corporate world


its not the end, but a wonderful beginning for me (hopefully)... today, i bid bye bye to p&g... after more than a month of tendering my resignation, my PMs had finally signed my papers (all is cleared now, yahoo!)

i felt bad for ill be missing everybody there, (esp. that invader in my candid pic, my co-rockstar Sands) for all them have brought meaning to my life in different aspects. Ive known different people in just one floor, there's a rockstar, there's a sentimental, a very-sensitive dork (guess who am talkin to?), a very patient one, ah basta iba iba ugali nila, but in spite of the differences we all have, we still remain as friends & support each other, though lots of problem occurred, especially in our job that is all the time "on-the'go!" & a little bit like a doctor who is "on-call", i cannot share what kind of work we all have, but i surely will say, i have a wonderful experience in p&g not just in my field but coordinating with people too. I've learned a lot, to be inititiave, to be energetic, get motivated & to dream high.

I will miss the corporate world, but i know this aint gonna be the last, but just a beginning for me to climb the highest mountain. (tama kaya ang pinagsasabi ko? bobo pa naman ako sa english, hahahahah)

day-off


its my day-off both from work & school, isnt it cool? yeah, for me it is dear... after having a wonderful conversation online with my dearest husband, my sister & few of our housemates decided to go to Trinoma, and since our ref is almost empty, we thought of its time for us to do grocery..

its my first menstrual day, and i felt bad for when we got to Trinoma, dysmenorrhea striked me (grrrrrrrrrr!) good thing there's mercury around so i grabbed ponstan to heal the pain.... & Thank God it healed..

my day-off went well, only that i got a bit pissed off at the grocery, the long queu over the counter really sucks! though yeah all of the stuff that i wanted to buy are already in the basket, so i couldnt just left there & back out... that surely made me mad... i will never-ever do grocery during weekends!

here's by the way, a pic of nanny's day off! wooohhoooooo!

and ops! flip flops (havaianas) are already open in Trinoma! go grab havaianas na!

acidic vs. alkaline foods

okey i just found out why sometimes i experienced back pains, stomach pains, headaches & etc these days, its merely due to my non-stop acidic foods! yeah, i got more acidic foods than that alkaline foods.. arg! its killin me sometimes for i easily got mad and nervous, & it feels like im agitated with no reason... i find it weird and thought of searching over the net on what the heck are these symptoms im experiencing now..

right after i read that stuff, i hurriedly went to convenient store and grab some alkaline foods.. hahahah! i should have known this thing before it made me sick.. whew!

i found out that we should take a ratio between alkaline and acidic foods, it should be 4:1, or 80% of alkaline & 20% of acidic foods, more acids in our body will cause us a lot pains, if you by the way experienced these pains:

* Lack of energy; constant fatigue, loss of physical tone and psychic drive, sensation of heaviness in the limbs, feelings of inability to cope.
* Lower body temperature; frequently feels cold.
* Tendency to get infections.
* Loss of drive, joy, and enthusiasm.
* Depressive tendencies.
* Nervousness: agitation without cause, hyperactivity, sensitivity to high-pitched noises and easily stressed.
* Very pale face.
* Headaches.
* Eyes tear easily.
* Conjunctivitis.
* Inflammation of the corneas and eyelids.
* Acidic saliva.
* Loose teeth.
* Inflamed, sensitive gums.
* Mouth ulcers.
* Cracks at the corners of the lips.
* Recurring infections of throat and tonsils.
* Teeth are sensitive to hot, cold, or acidic foods.
* Teeth have a tendency to crack or chip.
* Pain in the nerves of the teeth.
* Excess stomach acid.
* Acid regurgitation.
* Gastritis.
* Ulcers.
* Nails are thin and split and break easily.
* Hair looks dull, has split ends, and falls out.
* Dry skin.
* Skin tends to be irritated in regions where there are heavy concentrations of sweat.
* Hives.
* Leg cramps and spasms.

you should lessen eating acidic foods... and yeah yeah yeah! im experiencing most of it right now, so i should for a while avoid eating acidic foods..

just google in the net acidic & alkaline foods to have some infos on what are the right foods to eat.


stay safe! happy eating!

the coolest suggestion

my dear ipo was insisting me today to have a night out just to released stress, but nah! i kinda dont like to go out clubbing nor bar hopping, i find it boring these days and its not one of my list. He said why dont i try to watch movie? and then i realized, gosh! its been a loooooonnnnnngggggg time that i havent watched movie well for a month i think (before, one month for me of not watching any movie was damn pathetic) tsk tsk, what a change of life i have right now huh? but well, i dont think i got bored this time, only that when Charles told me that i need to go out for a while, i then thought of it...

well, while we were talking on some other stuff online, my mind was busy thinking of places to go.. and i remember Singapore! we plan to go there with my dear Khrysta, but since Khyrsta is not available not until next year, i will visit Maki (our main plan) & oh have to tell him that he should make his condo available.. heheheheh.. hmmmm... so i told Charles about it, and My dear Ipo, said yes without second thought.. and now im so very excited! yahoo!

Im searching for that Promo of Cebu Pacific & PAL....

wish me luck!

paintjam dan dunn



thy policemen

(before you read, i would say sorry for cussing so badly, coz i really got mad about what i have witnessed)


as i was on my way to school today, the FX that i rode in got caught by the police without violating anything... that thing really pissed me off, i know im not that familiar with all the rules & regulations that MMDA implemented but im somewhat aware naman kahit papano...

the driver dropped the passenger infront of the loading/unloading area but how come just seconds or minutes i think right after he dropped that passenger in that area, we were being followed by this bullshit police & let the driver stopped the vehicle on the other side of the road, right there & then, they pulled out the plates of the vehicle, the driver repeatedly asked them whats his violation at putanginang mga police yan, sinabihan ba lang naman ang driver na "EH NAG UNLOAD KA SA MALING LUGAR EH!" in a very loud sympathetic voice, jos ko naman kitang kita kaya ng dalawang mata ang sign where the vehicle stopped nung bumaba ang ali, i was in front seat by the way, and guess whats the worst thing that the policemen did? they wanted the driver to pay them 150pesos just because of that, para lang daw maibalik yung kinuhang nilang plate.. punyeta naman oh! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... ano ba namang klaseng police meron tau??!!! bigla kaming nagreact na mga pasahero kasi alam namin na tama naman yung ginawa ng driver & aside from they made us wait pa ng matagalan.. fuckshit! at parang walang mga tenga ang mga hinayupak! at ayaw kami pakinggan kelangan dawng magbayad nung driver bago kami makaalis... kainis!!!! so, maybe just to avoid whatever arguments, the driver paid them na lang.. tsk tsk tsk...

those policemen were the ones who violate their own rules... they just want money! grabe na talaga! i got mad of this coz its not only the first time that i experienced this with policemen, kaya inis na inis ako kanina...

Hope GMA will take actions for all the unworthy policemen in our country...

i was just curious

due to my curiosity on whats this all about... & well, yeah to know myself as well (accdg to that survey) while having a chit-chat with a dear friend, she sent this one to me... i find it interesting..

What Your Hands Say About You

You are logical, analytical, and rational. You have good verbal skills.

Bold and daring, you're not afraid to change your life if you think it needs an overhaul.

Consistent and reliable, you like to count on structure and routine in your life.

Your emotions tend to be nervous and potent. Your energy - both positive and negative - deeply impacts your life.


You Are 63% Independent

You've cultivated your own indepedent interests and personal style.
But you're open minded enough to also embrace anything trendy that strikes you.


How You Life Your Life

You seem to be straight forward, but you keep a lot inside.
You are always tactful and diplomatic. You let people down gently.
You tend to have one best friend you hang with, as opposed to many aquaintences.
You tend to always dream of things within reach - and you usually get them.



when u get damn bored, i suggest u try this one.. the blogthings...
