My Prerogative

More Projects

wtad — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 02:07:50 +0000

Now that Spring is coming soon, I am preparing for the home projects that are needed to be done this year! I promised to paint the living room and my child’s room before Summer comes. I do need to get some materials like protective clothing, paint brushes, spray, mask and I need to know the exact colors that they want and hopefully this time they will decide to st5ick with the color for at least a couple of years! I am not very fond of changing colors every year! It is costly but I have to admit it is kinda nice when you see something new every year. We are planning to change the roof this year too and probably I will also paint the garage door trim since the paint started to crack and it sounds that I will have plenty of things to do this year. I just hope that it’s going to be finish at the time frame that we all want!

Sunshine

Happy! Yes I was so happy seeing the sun shine and actually the snow are melting! I can see the grass in my yard again. I was inside most of the day working, searching online for life insurance quote, bought books, talked with friends and I had to go run to the post office to return the package and then I saw how wonderful the day looked and it really felt like Spring already! It’s still a little cold outside but, I changed from thick coat to a thick sweater! I heard that it’s going to be above 50 degrees at the end of the week so we are very excited about that! I do hope to see some buds peeking pretty soon

Cold Tuesday

It’s a cold Tuesday here, I am glad it didn’t snow just like they predicted that it would be. I have been running around doing some errands and had enough time to pay my bills, searched for the cheapest car insurance I can get and watched a movie during lunch time. We will go for skating tonight with my kids and I’m sure they will have fun skating with their friends and classmates.

Have you watched any of the Winter Olympics? I have and I am glad that the US has 7 Gold, 9 silver and 10 bronze medals! We are on top with 26 medals! Germany came next with 23 medals I do hope USA will get more coz I want to see us gather the most medals hehe. Of course Shaun White made the US proud again when he won the Men’s halfpipe last Wednesday . Yes I am in White’s bandwagon but can you blame me? Even my 8 yr. old son thinks Shaun White Rocks! Go Team USA!

Weigh Less

wtad — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 19:40:23 +0000

I decided not to weigh myself everyday, instead I just kept doing what I am doing. I will eventually know if I am loosing weight if my clothes feels a little loose. I cut my portions like instead of a lot of rice I only eat 1/2 cup , ate half of the salmon fillet, avoided soda and I do more chores that requires physical activities like shoveling snow. Since its still cold outside, I use my exercise bike and I try to use it for 30 minutes each day. I went online to research about which vitamins to take and you won’t believe how many sites that has a lot of information about vitamins, diet pills and I even came across youthology reviews. I just can’t wait for Spring to come so I can go run around the block!

Unfaithful

wtad — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 19:15:19 +0000

Many people tuned in for Tiger’s apology for what he did. I don’t understand why does he have to ask an apology to everybody because technically he only cheated on his wife during their marriage! He didn’t cheat in his sport, granted he is a public figure that everyone looked up to but, he is only human too who makes mistakes. I just don’t get why people has to expect someone famous to be perfect and I always think that if he makes amend and ask forgiveness that is only to his wife and family. Obviously he made a lot of people upset and in some he did but still he is not perfect and he is entitled to make mistakes.

Anyway, my dad heard about my diet changed and of course sine I followed his diet he gave me a big approval. My dad rarely eat meat and he is more into vegetables and fish but he also takes vitamins for men for supplement. He advised me to take some vitamins too if I don’t get enough iron and protein in my diet since I get rid of chicken too. I have been doing good avoiding pork , beef and chicken and I also doing good in keeping my right portions. I thought its going to be too hard but it’s easier than you think especially if you want change.

Eating Fish

wtad — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 16:35:43 +0000

Lucky for porky I am now eating more fish! Seriously when i talked about that how much I wanted to change my diet I really am starting and I think I did pretty good even though it’s only been 4 days. I avoided beef and pork even french fires and chips. I have been eating oatmeal for breakfast, 3 oz. of fish fillets and 1/2 c. white rice with 1/2 cup veggies with it. I also avoided Soda and I only drink green tea, juice or water. I am not exaggerating here but I feel that I have more energy, in fact I even shoveled the snow with no complains but did it even my neighbors sidewalk. I was considering taking ephedra diet pills but I think I am doing a very good job in avoiding red meat. I don’t want to cut it totally but I will try my best to only eat steak during special occasion. hey for the past 4 days my family ate meaty burgers, steak and even delicious Mexican foods but I was never tempted! I even chose Fish taco for Mexican night! yes I am proud of myself taking little step at a time~

Back on 18

Oh it’s snowing here today and I am telling you it’s not very pretty! I woke up very early today to prep my car and I was driving slowly to reach to my destination safely. Always remember to always slow down on bad weather! I always find an idiot driving fast and eventually they costs other people’s lives too. Gotta think before acting. Anyway, yesterday I talked to my friend about one of our favorite athlete and with all that steroids scandal they really killed their persona. As for me, I don’t have any knowledge when it comes to stuff like this but sometimes you will hear people talking about hgh supplements in addition of working out hard. For me, these people has natural talent and I don’t know why they have to do something to tweak it and of all the years they worked hard for their name to be on top now they ruined it their selves! I was e-tagged and you supposed to search the hits when u turned 18 . It looks fun and here are the rules:
- Start Copy -
1. Go to popculturemadness
2. Pick the year you turned 18
3. Get yourself nostalgic over the song’s of the year
4. Write something about how the song affected you

So here are mine:

MmmBop- Hanson everywhere I go this song was sung by many lips and sometimes it stuck in my head all day long.. very much annoying but catchy!
I’ll be missing you – P. Diddy & Faith Evans- I always like the tune especially from the original songs but I also like the way they did it as a tribute to biggie.
Quit Playing Games with my heart- Backstreet boys —- oh the life of a teenager when it comes to broken heart!
Semi-Charmed Life-3rd eye blind- 3 days of straight party in the beach with my friends!!
wannabe- Spice girls . Imagine my answer above with 3 days partying… this song was also sung by many annoying girls!

peace~

Better Eat

wtad — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 22:38:00 +0000

In getting back to shape I think I need to cut down foods that are packed in calories. I will have to switch from white to wheat bread, slow down on butter, cut back on burgers and Mexican foods. I cannot give up my steaks though because aside from the benefit of CLA, Steaks are delicious! If I can have steaks everyday I woulds but good steaks costs too much so I will have it occasionally when I feel like going to the Steakhouse or grill my own in moderation of course! I cannot change my 2% to nonfat milk I just can’t so nobody can force me to do that! But I will cut down on the sweets and other things but not my Steaks and 2% milk!

Complaining Love

wtad — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 04:11:02 +0000

Have you ever heard your partner talking about how much they sacrificed just for them to be with you? I have probably a million times already! I know how much trouble we’ve been through just to start our own family and you won’t believed how many miles we traveled just to get situated, we looked and rented at least 5 different apartments for rent and finally have our own house to call our home and have been a nest to our expanding family. Anyway, I was just thinking on what kind of gift I should give to my partner in life and I wonder will it be enough to show how big is my love and how grateful I am with all the sacrifices we both gave just to be with each other!
