my BBB

I’m so happy with my BBB that Abie gave me, I’m blogging about it. Hahaha. Here it is.

Now I can’t take my mind off BBB’s wedge shoes.

But these are made-to-order. Hmmm, oh well. Let’s see. To my loving, handsome and smart husband, are you reading this? ;)

where are the wii’s?

Hubby and I are contemplating on getting the Nintendo Wii. Contemplating meaning we *might* want to buy but we are never really too eager to talk and compute if we can. But I started checking online for its price. Oh yeah, I now know the price but it looks like that the problem is more of the availability rather than its price.

I wonder why would Nintendo not produce more Wii when the demand is so high? Or are the wii’s being held up somewhere, a strategy as to pump up the price?

Tsk, tsk.

Coach Op Art Collection

You have been wanting to buy five nice toys for Christmas and for your birthday. You’ve been working hard. You clearly deserve them. Everyday, you have been on the same online store and you are just a click away from checking out that cart. The desire keeps growing every day until you become numb looking at your shopping cart, so numb that you started to ask yourself, “why don’t I just buy this instead?” :D

Kidding aside, I might consider this though. :)

modern furniture

When you think of a home, you think of harmony, peace and quiet. You’d want it to be relaxing and to have less clutter. Think green. Perfect, just like the modern contemporary furniture you’ll see at Spacify.com.

And the site is very easy to navigate, you can browse by category or by design.

i did a little shopping

I did some online shopping lately. Want to see some of them? Well, even if you don’t, I will still post because it will make me happy. Hehehe.

This is just one of the four nice dresses that we got on an in-store sale.

This one I had to choose 10 minutes before the sale ends. Imagine I had to find a nice toy that Mikee will like but should be very affordable (or else, it would defy my purpose of waiting for a sale) in just a matter of minutes. I must admit, it gave me such an adrenaline rush.

See, I told you I still can control myself. I still browse for insurance quotes and check how the stocks are doing more than I do window-shopping. Oh well, the boxes are now full, I guess I have to wait till next year to buy my toys. :cry:

early holiday window-shopping

It’s a national holiday today so I sort of just take a peek of my cyber world for just few minutes. Mikee and I took our 3-hour afternoon nap. It feels good to have uninterrupted rest in the middle of the day. :)

I must admit I took a peek at my work too. I know, I know, this is bad for my work-life balance. But I promise myself I’ll sleep early tonight.

Anyway, Mikee has this bulky Graco stroller and I find it quite awkward for Mikee now. We stopped using it months ago. So I browsed for umbrollers online and found this:

I also browsed for possible Christmas gifts for our friends and families. I saw nice pet beds, and some sweet-looking gift packs and affordable toys for the little kids. And let’s not forget the Christmas gifts (yes, with an ’s’) I’m getting for myself. ;)

wish list

I just received some good news from Peachy. Clue? 4 cute dresses ;)

One of the many reasons I wanted to cross some things off my wish list the soonest possible time is that it tends to go longer. I sort of browse this site (that accepts paypal) a couple of times a day and initially, I planned on buying just one item and now when I saw my cart, it says “9 items” :mrgreen:

I better get over this site soon. Tsk, tsk.

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.

brag happy

What’s this brouhaha about the LV bags that it drives people to brag? Hahaha. Kidding. I understand the passion for bags. Although I am not the LV-type. I’m more of a Coach or Kate Spade type. You see, I like leather and I like them plain. Although I fell in love with some Coach patchwork bags.

Isn’t she a beauty? Hep, I don’t own this. Just so you know. :mrgreen:

Coach Hamptons bag

Just saw this new Hamptons leather bag from Coach.

Even at first glance, I know that this is something my mom would buy. Yes, trust me on this. She has a bag, shoes and skirt with this exact color when she was younger and still single. She loved this color. In fact, I think my first swatch (remember that watch?) had a strap in this color.

Hmm, maybe I can convince my sister we could buy this for our mom’s birthday. :)

fast cash

Shopping can be very refreshing. Just hopping from one store to another with another purchase to add to your loot gives that adrenaline rush. Especially during season-end sales which usually falls few days before your scheduled payday. You’ve been wanting to buy that dress and now you see that it’s marked down half of its original price. But you know that if you wait any longer, somebody else might just buy it before you.

Good to know that there are payday loans. You can have the money fast. Now you can shop even before your payday, and never miss a great buy.

Sony M1: consumer’s review

We are owners of Sony-M1 for more than 3 years now. Although I’m not sure about the Sony-M2, let me share with you some of my frustrations. I will never recommend this to anyone, really.

  • It works well on well-lit places, but not on dark places. This was taken without any lights on and blinds closed but at noontime! Geez!
  • There’s no available flash that you can connect/add to it. So when out on a bar or bonfire, this digicam is hopeless.
  • If we set it to take brighter pictures (the candle icon), it will be all blurry. Unless, it is a non-moving object and you’re using a tripod.
  • Yes, tripod. We need a tripod to make use of the timer. ‘Coz unlike most digicams, you can not just put this on top of a flat surface. Although, sometimes, I appreciate it since it just looks like a mobile phone.
  • Oh, let me not start about that station as they call it (to charge it and connect with a PC or TV)
  • Too pricey for its quality (or lack of it).

But there is a reason I can not part with this digicam.

  • The videos (MPEG4 format) are just fantastic! Just like with photos, I take videos of Mikee too.

Because of this model alone, we won’t buy any Sony camera anymore. Point-and-shoot and DSLR alike.

Coach baby bags

I was looking for a nice laptop bag, instead I saw multi-function bags that can be used as a laptop bag or diaper bag. But Coach categorized them as baby bag anyway. I am a spendthrift which is why I love things that serve dual or multiple purposes.

COACH HERITAGE STRIPE MULTI-FUNCTION TOTE

HAMPTONS WEEKEND MULTI-FUNCTION TOTE

But what I love best is:
HAMPTONS WEEKEND STRIPE MULTI-FUNCTION TOTE
