I will be out....

Bye for now! I'm quite worried that I will not be able to be in the blogosphere for 2 days and will be missing the opportunities being offered this time. (huhuhu) But I guess the joy that I will be experiencing this time is more than the opps that will be wasted. I'm so excited to spend our Halloween Weekends with my whole family in our hometown province to visit our dear loved ones who have gone ahead of us. Aside from that, we will be seeing our cousins and relatives as well. Bon Voyage to us!

Made to Measure Fashion Suits

I remember the time when I got married 3 years ago, my husband was wearing a black suit. It is a fact that it is not only the bride that will look so fabulous and beautiful that day but also the groom as well should look so handsome in their on style of suit. As to my case, I don’t want him to wear the traditional Barong Tagalog (Philippines National Costume) because I want him to have an identity between his groom’s men. I was planning to have him a made-to-measure suit for the wedding day. Unfortunately, there was a notion in mind that Made-To-Measure suits are so expensive indulgence reserved only for the wealthy. So I ended up renting his Black Suit for the wedding.

As I was browsing the net, I found out that a Made to measure suit from MySuit probably costs no more than any one of the "off the rack" suits you currently have in your closet. Oh my! How I wish I was able to know this custom suit site before so that I can make a Made-To-Measure Suit for my husband and for sure he would be definitely be looking great in our special day.

MySuit is a global company with over 40 years of manufacturing and retail experience. It is a new technology and fine craftsmanship that have come together creating an exciting new process that allows manufacturing truly made-to-measure suits at off-the-rack prices and turn-around times. One can have their own styles and fit in their favorite fabric! A Made-To-Measure suit is all about fit and fluidity of motion. It moves with you, enhancing your stance, your posture and even your gait. Additionally, because it is comfortable and conforms naturally to your shape, a Made-To-Measure suit offers its wearer a relaxed and confident appearance. You wear the suit, it never wears you.

I would highly recommend this site for my friends who are planning to get married early of year 2009. You can make an appointment right on the web to have measurements taken at their mid-town store…They will help you design your own suit…Two week turn-around time …It is very affordable and it cost only at a very low price of $495-$2,000.

3 Great Breakfast-Drink Choices

Need a little something to help that oatmeal slide down?

Try one of these morning favorites. They taste great and do stuff like relieve achy joints, fend off insulin problems, and boost your brainpower.

Orange juice: A study showed that joint inflammation may be less likely in middle-aged people whose diets are rich in beta-cryptoxanthin. And oranges are brimming with it -- as well as anti-inflammatory vitamin C.

Coffee: Researchers think the brew may improve insulin sensitivity. Men in a study who quaffed four 8-ounce cups a day had a whopping one-third reduction in type 2 diabetes risk.

Apple juice: This sweet drink is swimming with the brain-boosting chemical acetylcholine, which feeds memory and juices up learning skills.

iLASIK Info!

It runs in the blood as they said! Most of our family members may it be in the immediate family or even my relatives are wearing glasses and contact lenses. One has to wear it so that one can see and read clearly. Sad to say that it’s part of their daily lives, they can’t go out from the house without using it. I even have a grandmother who is in the Canada right now who is suffering from blindness due to diabetes. Oh my! She really missed the beauty of the world the place has to offer. I’m glad that I read from the LASIK information that there is an opportunity that their eyes can be corrected through this surgery and one thing’s for sure is that it is fast and virtually painless. I am so excited to tell them about this new technology that they will experience a 20/20 (or better) vision.

It is a permanent solution to reduce dependence on lenses and spectacles. It corrects the refractive imperfections in your eyes and is very much affordable. This LASIK technology is safe and proven already. Doctors have been performing LASIK for a decade and approximately 32 million LASIK procedures have been performed to date making it the most common elective vision procedure in the U.S. In fact, all branches of the U.S. military and NASA recently approved LASIK for their servicemen and women to improve the vision of these specialized personnel facing extreme physically demanding conditions. Around 95% of the 100 military achieved 20/20 vision through the use of modern LASIK.

According to Dr. Schallhorn, (a retired U.S. Navy captain) “technologically speaking, there is no better time than now to join the over 12 million Americans who have benefited from LASIK." This is highly recommended for those people out there, who are experiencing visual impairment that wants their lifestyle to be change totally.

God's Answer to the Looming Financial Crisis

I am not writing to remind us all of the frightening news that is bombarding to us every day. Nor do I want to go over what the world keeps talking about. I am writing this post to personally remind us what God has said to us all along. He wants to strengthen us in our faith.

Financial crises have come and gone, but God’s people who truly trust the Lord have prospered both in times of plenty and in times of lack! God Almighty wants to prosper and bless us. That is God’s plan for us. All He is looking for is our obedience.

Giving to the work of the Lord is the secret to abundance! When we join hands with Jesus Christ and give to His work—spreading His Gospel to the ends of the earth—He has guaranteed that we cannot and will not lack financially!

All we have to do is to secure our present and future, and give to the Lord’s work and let our faith be established in God’s Word. The Lord even promises to bless and prosper and protect our children and our children’s children.

God has an answer to the looming financial crisis. Give today to the Lord, for surely He will fulfill His Word! Honor Him today with your substance. Honor Him with the firstfruits of all your increase. And He promises in His eternal Word that your barns will be filled with plenty and your presses will burst out with new wine!

Love Never Fails!

I remember of a story about a couple who's been married for about 50 years, but still they are very much in love. Both of them are dying, but still they manage to kiss and whisper "I love you to each other and say how beautiful her wife is.

I'm saddened for those couples who have given up their marriages, who are unwilling to endure through better or worse, sickness or health, poverty or wealth. They will miss the kind of love that everyone is enjoying in their latter years.But as for me and my husband, we are always praying for our lifelong commitment, our deep faith in God, our loyalty and our self-denying love which is the most important theme of our marriage.

True love never gives up, it never fails!

Chocolate: Great for your Skin

Don't you think chocolate is one of the worst things for your skin? Nah! Think again because there is a recipe for hot chocolate that can make your skin glow.

In one study, just 6 weeks of a daily dose of cocoa made skin smoother, better hydrated, and less sun sensitive. And 12 weeks did even more. All thanks to the skin-boosting antioxidants in cocoa, called flavonols. But it’s got to be dark chocolate. "Skip cocoa mixes, which don't have the same flavonol levels, and go for the real thing: dark, unadulterated cacao powder that contains 70 percent or more cacao.

The secret to this easy recipe? Heat it slowly. Slow heat helps release the antioxidants.

The Ingredients
1 1/2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder with 70% or more cacao (such as Scharffen Berger natural cocoa powder or Ghirardelli unsweetened cocoa)
2 teaspoons sugar
Pinch of salt
1 cup skim or low-fat milk

Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and heat gently (do not let it boil), stirring frequently, until cocoa is just beginning to steam. Pour into a mug and enjoy.

Personalized Flash Drives: A Perfect Gift

It's good to know that USB ( Universal Serial Bus) Flash Drives offer potential advantages over other portable storage devices, particularly the floppy disk. They are more compact, generally faster, hold more data, and are more reliable (due to both their lack of moving parts, and their more durable design) than floppy disks. These types of drives use the USB mass storage standard, supported natively by modern operating systems such as Linux, Mac OS X, Unix, Windows and Windows Vista.

Don't you know that it is also a perfect gift for someone since it is very helpful to once life as a student, as a worker and even our own lifestyle needs it. Another thing that makes it more exciting is, it can be made personalized whatever you wanted.

Fun fun fun with RD

A childhood memories will be incomplete if there were no enjoyments. Not just them who will enjoy such but even as adult as we are we'd love to do some fun too. I remember my childhood days playing board games with my cousins and siblings as one way of distressing from school. I was more on an academe person- I did not really enjoy those days having fun with those friends of mine from the outside. Most of my days were spent on my academics, church, and then home. But then, I enjoyed playing those board games that we had, it helped me a lot to increase my word vocabulary at a very young age. I'd love to play the crossword puzzle, boggle games, scrabble, millionaire’s games and other more.

Three Years!

It's been a week already since we've celebrated our 3rd year wedding anniversary and our daughter's 2nd birthday at the same time. I just realized how time flies so fast and truly I said to myself that I am really enjoying my life now as a mom and as a wife of course. With so much experience I encountered I thanked the Lord for all those things which made me more mature and be more closer to God. I can say that God has truly blessed our marital life so much and am thankful enough for the things He has given and the blessings that are yet to come.

"Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds" which means love does not change with circumstances in which I truly believes. As a couple, we live this verse in us that "Every good and perfect gift is from above, and comes from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation of shifting shadows". God never changes, and neither does His love for us. We are the recipients of a perfect love from our Heavenly Father, who has loved us "with an everlasting love". Thank God for your goodness and faithfulness in our lives.

Theatre Church Experience

To be raised by a family that was all God fearing, going to church is a must in our lives. There is an excitement in us whenever Sunday is coming up, in which it’s another opportunity to meet our God and worship him.

I am proud to say that I am a province girl who grew up in a born-again Christian family and I am really an avid church goer. Ever since I was a kid I joined Children’s Sunday’s School and even until my Christ Ambassadors days. When the time we move to the city, that’s the time I experience to attend services in a big/huge church. There was really a big difference between a province and a city church. The congregation itself are so many as well as the instruments are all complete. The time we had our church thanksgiving we held it in a movie theatre and it was so amazing, it was a great experience that I had. I remember that this was the time we had our Kids Praise presentation. It was so fun, the all the comfy cushioned seats were all taken, the room was so cold and everybody was there so focused on us as we performed. By the time we had our praise and worship, Oh God! It was another great experience; it was so nice to hear the complete seats of instruments that are so soothing to the ears. It is also nice to listen as the Pastor is delivering his words with the excellent sound system that was so different from the service in a traditional church.

Anyone of you experience attending a Church Service in a movie theatre? Am sure you too had a great experience with this. This conference that is coming up in MD is specifically for church Pastors who want to learn about starting a theatre church. For those Pastors out there who are living near in Maryland, I am inviting you to attend the first-ever inaugural Theatre Church Conference in Silver Spring, MD on October 22 & 23 of 2008. If you are interested, Find out more on www.ncm.com. For sure you too will be blessed and had another great experience in your life and you will Find out more.

Vows to Cherish!

Three years from now to be exact, I've still remember how we made our vows to each other!

Phebie, my honey, my love...as we stand before both God and man making public our commitment to one another, I wish to make it known that I recognize God’s authority over my life which is exercised from His loving heart. He has chosen me to be one of His own, and has since been my life. I recognize also that He has blessed me, and entrusted to me your life as an unearned gift. In recognition of these things, I, Neil, take you, Phebie, to be my wife. I purpose to love you with His love, to provide for your needs through His enablement, and to lead you as He leads me, as long as He gives me life, regardless of circumstances. Phebie, I look forward to establishing a home where Christ is glorified. Toward that end I promise to allow God to use you in my life as He sees best in building me into His person. I thank Him for your love and friendship.

I, Phebie, take you, Neil, my honey and my love to be my husband. With the greatest joy I come into my new life with you. Today I am reminded of James 1:17 which says “Every good thing bestowed and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.” Besides the gift of salvation, you are the most precious gift God has given me. I know that along with the new joys God has given me, I face new responsibilities that I cannot fulfill in my own strength. But by God’s grace and power working within me, I desire to be trustworthy as your wife, to serve and love you in all circumstances, to obey you, to allow God to use you to build His qualities in me, as long as God give us life on this earth. I praise God continually for you, Neil, and for your love and friendship.

Media Influence!

I've noticed my 2 year old daughter this past month that she loves to watch movies a lot. I was quiet worried since too much exposure to media especially if still a kid is not good for them. I was thinking that her world will just turn around about what she saw. So shocked that she even memorized different spiels of the advertisements at a very young age. Oh my! She loves to watch telerserye- namely Dyosa,Varga,Goin Bulilit, Iisa Pa Lamang and a lot more (LOL)!

Before I used to let her see her brainy babies and other educational CDs & DVDs every morning. But now she even loves to watch fiction movies , just imagine she still wakes late at night just to watch her fave shows. She will even shed a tears if we will not let her see. It was so alarming for me as a mother!

Last week I was so shocked as in again, why? she was watching the movie Terminator III from the beginning till end together with his dad. I was put into sleep while both of them enjoyed the movie. I can't imagine how young is my daughter to be addicted with movies like this. Seldom you can see a 2 year old kid who who can finish a whole movie (a science fiction) without being disturbed. Oh no! this is not good anymore! What should I do especially that I can't be with her all the time since I am a working mom?

Don't disturbed her she's watching a movie...

1st Mindanao Bloggers Summit!

As I was taking my breakfast just this morning, I saw from the television an advertisement about Mindanao Bloggers Summit. I haven't seen about the details of the said event. I thought it would be held here in Cagayan de Oro. As I surf the net, oh my it's true but sad to know that it they will hold it on Davao. I'm quite interested to join since I haven't stepped on that beautiful place of Mindanao and the most exciting is of course to meet my new blogger friends. I don't have any assurance since next week will be my daughter's 2nd birthday and you know "financial crises" though the registration is free but then we have to spend more for our fare and accommodation. (huhuhu!)

Spotlight Mindanao:Blogging for Culture, Identity & Understanding
Date: 27 October 2007 (Saturday)
Time: 9:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M.
Venue: 4th Floor, NCCC Mall, Ma-a, Davao City
Registration Fee: FREE!(Instead, you’re required to post on your blog that you intend to join the Summit. Instructions are emailed after registration.)
Organized by The Usual Suspects

So to all Mindanaoans out there feel free to visit the Mindanao Bloggers.

PMC's Week 16 Photo Post: Then and Now!

The Ugly Duckling

Ever since I was a kid, I always heard from someone else telling me that I look very different from my siblings. Maybe I have a low bridged nose and not that pleasing physical attributes to their standards comparing to my sisters and brother. Deep inside I was really hurt, got a low self esteem, to the point that I would question myself If am I really their sister. (LOL!) One thing's for sure that God made me perfectly and wonderfully. As I grow maturely I know God has blessed me that much, among the four I was the only one with a good scholastic record till my graduate years. Glory to God! NOW? I gain my self confidence a lot, have a blissful marriage with a beautiful and a lovely daughter. As the story told: "the ugly duckling turn to be the a beautiful swan".

1. Momma Wannabe
