Music Monday: The Climb

Miley Cyrus may be a lot of things for a teen but this song of hers is undoubtedly a really good one. I love the melody, the lyrics and the feel of this song. The Climb by Miley Cyrus everyone.


Lyrics | Miley Cyrus lyricsThe Climb lyrics

But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high

There’s always gonna be another mountain
I’m always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I’m gonna have to lose

Ain’t about how fast I get there
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

Love this song! Happy Monday!

Unwell but feeling better now

I’ve been unwell for the past few days. I don’t like this feeling and to banish it, I am doing little things that I know will motivate me and make me feel better. Like tinkering with this blog’s stylesheet. I changed the background and some link colors here. I want a brighter layout thus the changes. I hope you like it, too.

I am thinking of ways on how to get back my ranking here. Probably tinker with the meta tags or something. I am not really knowledgeable when it comes to seo but hopefully, I can ask around from well-meaning friends and get some insights to how my pr will be back. And hopefully, Mr. G will be good enough to give it back.

See, I am feeling much better now! ;)

Unique Baby Announcements

Babies are precious. They can turn even the most gloomy day into a bright one when we see a baby, especially a newborn. And when they smile at us, our hearts just melt like butter. Admit it, you are as vulnerable to them as I am. When I get a birth announcement, I can’t help but set aside worries and feel nothing else but happiness. Babies have that effect on me.

A specially designed Baby Announcement can be ordered at CardsShoppe. Add a photo to any card design on their site to personalize it. They will modify any card design or color as requested. Modifications won’t cost you additional fee. I am sure that photo birth announcements will bring more joy to your love ones when they receive one, don’t you think?

Doll's room

Haze bought a little doll. She’s asking her dad to make a room for her doll so at night, she has a room of her own. Her dad is obviously putty in her hands so he acquiesced and made a little room for the doll. The room is quite the little girl’s dream room complete with porcelain tile for her wall! It’s so cute!

I played dolls when I was a kid. My sisters and I had Barbie dolls and we would play, making the dolls act like best friends instead of sisters. It was so much fun because all we talked about that time was going to the office, shopping and traveling!

Feisty and rude

There’s nothing wrong with being feisty. As long as you are not stepping on someone’s dignity. We have a neighbor who’s rude and feisty and doesn’t care who she steps on as long as she can express herself. She walks all over her husband even in public. She would raise her voice to him, sometimes ridicule him in front of other her friends, and is doing all these things in front of their two kids! Do you know that their youngest, a girl, takes after her mom? She also raises her voice to her dad!

I think the guy is putting up with her foul-mouthed wife because he does not want to ruin his family. But at some point, he has to put his foot down and tell his wife to shut the hell up! And he needs to demand respect from the women in his life.

My mentor

I kept remembering her, my mentor. Whenever there are special occasions, her kind face and voice would always resurface from the deep recesses of my mind. She’s one of the few bosses I know who are truly kind to her staff. Plus, she will let you do things your own way. She won’t force her methods to you but would rather welcome whatever you can contribute to the group. I remember we were reviewing a financial report and I was changing Excel sheets back and forth using ctrl-page-down and ctrl-page-up. She told me she didn’t know that and was amazed by it. Other bosses would pretend to know it by observing what you’re doing and will keep quiet. Not her. She is a very generous, very gracious person. A true kindhearted one that is rare these days.

I had trouble before. I asked a loan from the company that would be deducted from my paycheck for six months. She called me up (she’s at the headquarters while I was at a branch office) and offered to loan me the exact same amount I need (out of her own pocket) without any interest and I can pay it for a year.

Tell me, how can I forget a person like my mentor? Too bad I lost my communication with her. Last I heard, she’s already working abroad for a well-known telecoms company.

Back in fighting form

I saw her looking bulkier than usual. I thought she was pregnant. When I got near her, I saw that she gained weight. And it didn’t do her good at all. She was really skinny back in college, always been saying how she didn’t want to be one of those who don’t look after their weight. It really came as a surprise to see her not skinny. I was tempted to tell her to take the best weight loss supplements so she could be back in fighting form. She can be a pain in the neck but she can be a caring friend, especially during that tough time in my life back in sophomore year in college.

Get ready with your birth announcements!

Birth Announcement

Birth Announcement

Shout to the world about the birth of your baby! Or better yet, give a shoutout to everyone via Photo Birth Announcements!

I love the idea of photo birth announcements, to tell the truth. Imagine capturing the image of your newborn baby, putting it on the announcement cards and showing it to your family, friends and other love ones. I say, that’s priceless! I am sure that you are excited to tell everyone about the newest addition to the family.

Order a bunch of birth photo announcements at http://www.express-invitations.com, where you can personalize the announcements to include the details you want your love ones to know. Choose a colorful and cute design of the announcements birth cards. After personalizing it, expect to receive the proof within an hour wherein you can see it through their patented instant preview features. Order the minimum they require and they will toss in an additional 10 free thank you cards.

I truly love this idea! I will tell my pregnant friend about this so she and her husband can prepare for the announcement as early as now!

Rest in peace, Tita Cory.

coryaquino

She was fondly called Tita Cory (Aunt Cory) here in the country. She was actually former president Corazon Cojuangco-Aquino, the 11th president of the Philippine Republic and the first woman president of the Philippines and the Southeast Asia. A one-time Time’s Woman of the Year. And the face behind the Edsa Revolution that freed the country from a 20-year reign of the Marcoses. She was considered the Mother of Democracy here in the country.

Tita Cory succumbed to cardiac arrest, as a complication of her colon cancer, at 3:18AM today, August 1, 2009 at the Makati Medical Center.

May her soul rest in peace.
