This picture (which is pixelated, I know, sorry about that) was taken more than five years ago. I was just few months after I arrived here in United States of A. I was there together with my friend Au & her hubby. That was in Our Lady of Angels here in Los Angeles, California. It is quiet famous as many tourists went there. Though, it is just 15 minutes away from where my little family live, still it is quite far as it will be crossed in a freeway. It really needs time to go there unlike a chapel here near us (three minutes drive or seven minutes walk *walking is a good exercise*). I can always look at it when passed-by going to my daughter's appointment in Vermont Ave, Los Angeles (plus the Jollibee food chain) once a day, every week, though. Anyway, this picture doesn't do justice, this church is beautiful in actual much more nowadays.
 
I plan to go back and spend time there one day soon. Can't you guess, I also miss by slim bod here. Ha! Reminiscing. Now I'm already 120-124 lbs. Whew!

People create handicrafts for various reasons. As much as Americans and other people around the globe, Filipinos love and enjoy expressing themselves artistically as they create objects like wood carvings, woven baskets, lampshades, trays, home décor and many others. And one quality of the Filipinos have, is that Filipinos love to make and do things with their bare hands. They learn the craft as a challenging and entertaining hobby at the start. They do it during their free time and/or during weekends.

Engaging in handicraft is a very interesting passion. But what usually starts as a hobby can be a good source of livelihood, too. Some Philippine handicrafts are exported to the United States, Australia, some part in Europe, and co-Asian countries. In the Philippines, tourists crowd handicrafts stores to buy souvenirs items to bring home. By the way, just a short note, Miss Philippines has been crowned as Miss World 2013 which was held yesterday in Jakarta, Indonesia. Congratulations to Megan Lynne Young. She makes Filipino proud.

Time check ---> 12:57 A.M. (Pacific Daylight Time or as commonly seen "PDT") as of September 29, 2013. One day to go before the September end day. So how's everyone, what's up?

Me? I have been caught up with a lot of things especially with a two-year old toddler. You know, it is really had being a mom juggling being a home-maker, as a mom and as a wife with no assistant or a help. I have to focus on my child but I also have to cook, clean and everything associated with that house work as well as being myself and keep my sanity intact all the time. I guess, that's all we are all working on, especially the latter, isn't it? Ooh well, you can't relate if you're not a mom yet.

Anyway, have a great Sunday everyone! Spread the positive vibes. By the way positive vibes doesn't mean it doesn't have negative aspects but rather, being positive means overcoming the negative/s! Be optimistic.

Once again, happy Sunday!

 A toothbrush is important to our health, specifically to our mouth part, the gums --- otherwise, we could have a gum disease due to our teeth/gum problem. And that will happen when no proper care or toothbrush to our teeth. As much as we love foods and chocolates as well as other stuffs that we put in our mouth, proper and consistent  toothbrush is what we basically need in order to keep it clean and healthy.


I assume (to which it is basically what everyone does) that we do brush our teeth regularly or at least three times a day (or even once a day), but, isn't it that the only thing we are concerned of? Way back years, I was not really particular of what kind of toothbrush did I use in brushing my teeth. Then one day, I came to my dentist and she told me that it has to be soft so it won't damage my gums. And I thought it won't clean that best because of such softness but then I still use it though I have other a little hard one in alternate or whenever I need to have it, so all in all I have two at a time. Then came this SlimSoft Toothbrush of Colgate which is said to be 17x Slimmer Tip Bristles for a Deep Clean complimentary from Influenster for me to review. And yes, it does did its job! As in I really like it because of the softness and like it says slimmer tip bristles! So I don't need to use two toothbrush at a time. Now, I switch to this toothbrush! The best so far, for me. I can guarantee its quality!
