girly fun

If you have been reading this blog, you’ll notice how I love Coach bags. I guess those are the bags that I can afford (read: on rare splurges) and styles of which fit my lifestyle. I don’t buy bags more expensive than the Coach price range. I tend NOT to use expensive things that I own (given to me as a gift, in short, kuripot ako) worrying I might damage it. So I only buy things that I won’t mind getting damaged provided I’ve used it often enough.

Anyway, earlier today, Peachy sent me a Coach Patchwork bag. No, not the real one. But to my Facebook account. In turn, I sent Coach Hamptons bags to several friends.

Fun!

I was about to go to the office. Then I thought of taking a picture. Why? Why not! Hehehe.

Now who looks 30-ish now? :P

using your DSLR to make HD movies

Hubby and I have agreed we could buy a new DSLR this December. So I was browsing for pictures of the model that we want. I wanted to know the appropriate prime lens so I texted my sister’s fiancee. He then replied with “Have you seen the new Nikon D90?” And so I googled and find out that you can make movies out of the D90, HD! WOW!!! Ultimate!

In simple English for everyone else, unlike camcorders, you can throw backgrounds way out of focus for movies shot on the D90.” - Ken Rockwell.

Definitely my kind of camera! I checked its price and showed hubby. He then teasingly sang “Pangarap ka na lang ba?” (Will you be just a dream?)

Ok, settled then. No D90 for us.

of gowns and dreams

Just today, I had a chat with a friend. She said that I look thinner on my pics. This made me happy, of course. At least I won’t have a hard time watching my diet for the next couple of months till my sister’s wedding. Haha.

My mom offered to pay for my gown on that event. I declined the offer simply because the schedule (this couturier hardly accepts appointments on a weekend) conflicts with Mikee’s playschool. Guess what? I dreamt of it last night. I was waiting for my turn and saw my mom wearing a very sexy lacy white dress. And in my dream, she was young and thin. Hmm, maybe a premonition of what I’ll see on my sister’s wedding. But instead of my mom, it’s my sister being sexy, which would be a surprise because she’s not. :)

purple-icious

Yes, this blog is sporting a new look. :) I’ve changed the theme of my main blog and I figured I’d do the same here and with berryscrappy. I know, I know. I should use shades of green instead to live up to this blog’s name, CHI. But I think this blog contains more purple-looking topics. (Merong ganun? purple-looking topics? Bwahaha)

is it full moon tonight?

As I have expected the training was so boring. But I was surprised to know that it is a two-day training. I had to check my calendar and lo, I have two other trainings tomorrow. Good thing I remember the organizer telling me I could just call in for those two.

Free snacks were served in the morning and in the afternoon. It used to be that this training was held externally (in a posh hotel) with free snacks AND LUNCH. Since the company I’m working with had just purchased another company (Ooops, Is that a clue already huh?), the employees could feel some cutbacks are done.

Annoying. I better buy some acne treatments or I’d start popping these with my own bare hands. Tsk, tsk.

Hey, I have an idea. Why don’t you let the employees work from home Tuesdays to Fridays saving Mondays for meetings like we used to? Then you can cut back on our humongous electric bill. Just a thought. ;)

early birds

It’s only 7am and I’m already here in the office. I have a 9am training and our car is banned today. Hence, hubby and I are both 2 hours early.

I am wondering how on earth I can concentrate on the training later. I’m too sleepy and I’m pretty sure it would be a “wordy” training. I don’t think my mind is ready to accept any additional information. Ho-hum. I better start researching on New York movers before my mind starts to wander again.

i am…

busy.
why? hubby’s birthday.
enough said.
