Down Memory Lane: Drum and Lyre Corps We Are!

Image
When I was still young and in primary school, I was a member of a drum and lyre group of our school. We usually were present in every feasts, city activities, schools inter-city sports activities. We joined competition, that allowed me to travel from one city to another municipality at the very young age. I loved it every time we're performing then, I love playing xylophone while parading over the city with those high boots and short polka-dotted skirts representing our school. While my younger brother is holding a cymbals the one like that of hi hat cymbals at Musicians Friend. But later on he's into snare drum. We we're having fun all those times. The prime moment was when we won the grand champion of the Drum and Lyre Corps competition all over Palawan. It was such a great honor to be a member of the group. The first and last time of that kind of competition.

My 24-Weeks Money Challenge

Image
A few weeks ago, 52-weeks Money Challenge has become a trend and most of my blogger friends joined the fun. But unfortunately, that 52-weeks is not possible for me, for I am not being paid weekly, but bi-monthly. So, when I saw Mommy Pehpot's blog post , having a 24-weeks on the challenge, it made me push through with the challenge. A bit hard on my end, but will definitely try to finish this for 2014! Nothing is really impossible if we just try. Below is the my "coin-bank".  Glued the lid to the plastic can, so that it can't be easily opened. With a hole on top of it. :)       Below is the list of the amount that I am going to put every after 15 days. This is going to be a tough challenge for me. For I tend to forget things at times. But let's see how it goes after the 12month period!

What to Expect When You're "Expecting"

Image
When I had my first born, I was in a pretty tough situation. My mom wasn't with me that time, but I had with me my aunt.  Good thing I was able to prepare myself for the big day. I have read and researched a lot of things about what to expect when expecting to have a baby. Bought a lot of pregnancy books and magazines.  Reading and researching helped me big time. Learned things that I didn't know prior to reading books and mags about pregnancy. Moms-to-be today are so lucky that there are events/workshops that will help them understand and prepare themselves for giving birth. Manila Workshops and Medela Moms, Inc. will be having the first workshop for 2014 under the First Time Parents Series on January 25, 2014. This workshop is also Co-presented by Stemcord Philippines, Inc. This workshop series aims to help first time parents or even the “experienced-yet-need-refreshers” parents to help them to go through topics on pre-birth, delivery and new born care an...

Of Music and Parties!

Image
Just a few weeks ago when I was caught with so much work. Arranging things for my little girl's party and working all at the same time. Joggling mommy duties with work and with photo sessions with clients. Then came this weekend, my bestfriend-Denmay asked me to go out with her as she was just having her short vacation here in Palawan. I gladly said yes! For I am missing going out with friends, seriously. We had our dinner at this local Vietnamese Noodle House. Then decided to go to out friend's house to have some Tequila session. On the way, we were talking about out younger years, having so much fun, attending parties, night outs, clubbing and a lot more. Enjoying music with this behringer effect that really sounds so nice to the ears..  Love it when I get to spend some time with friend from the past.. Happy life it is!
