My Mini-Vacay
Posted Under Ramblings

I just got back from my mini vacation with my bf and kiddies a few hours ago. We had a blast and a major tan… LOL. My bf is trying to catch up to me in the tanning department, so he’s got alot of catching up to do :P I LOVE my tan, unfortunately I didn’t spend enough time to do my back so I’ll focus on that the next time I go to the beach. And I made a mistake of wearing my shades while I was oudoors so you’ll see a tanline around my eye area, very minor though, but still looks kinda funny… lol.

We spent our 4th of July week at Seaside Heights, NJ. Did you know that New Jersey-ians call there beach the shore, not the beach? Don’t say you never learned anything from my site :) We spent most of our time around the Casino Piers, where they have lots of vendors, arcades, foods and an amusment park (just like any other beaches, huh? Oh, my bad… the SHORE) We only spent about 2 hours at the beach the whole time we were there. Other times, we played mini golf, go karts, took the kids to the water park while we spent hours in the Lazy River, the bf and I tanned while the kids were in the pool, we rented a bus/bike thingamajig for an hour (a great cardio for me… haha), watched the fireworks at the beach. Thanks to my bf for planning the trip. We definitely need to do this again! Pictures will be posted soon in my flickr account, it will be updated on the right side of my site ——>

Graduation
Posted Under Ramblings

This morning was my son’s graduation ceremony. The last time when I was this excited was when he graduated from Pre-K. Now that he’s becoming a young man, he’s moving on to bigger and more responsible things. It is very rewarding to know the accomplishments that my son has gone through for over the past 6 years. And this morning shows the hard work we all put into it and I’m very thankful for all the people that are involved in our lives. Below are a few snapshots I took. Sorry for the quality, I was using my Dad’s camera and wasn’t sure how to work the settings :(


The Graduation Walk


With his teacher, she’s an amazing woman


His father attended the ceremony as well


His proud mama :)

I remember a certain SOMEONE told me and everyone else what a bad mother I was to my kids. Maybe in her eyes, but if I can feed my kids, clothed them, spoil them with expensive games and toys, raise them to be well behaved, take them to school and both my kids are in the Honor Roll, then I know I’m doing something right. Oh, and did I mention that he received a President’s Education Award for Outstanding Academic Excellence honored in his name? Yeeeah, I’m REEEEAAALLY bad. So this one goes out to her… neener neener NEEEEENER!!! :P That’s a different story. Thanks for reading.

My Son’s First Prom
Posted Under Ramblings

I didn’t know kids have a prom in elementary school these days. When I was my son’s age, we never had a prom. If they did, I didn’t even know about it. Anyway, the whole thing was sort of bad planning on my part. I had 2 months in advance to have him get fitted for a tux and order a corsage for his date but I did everything at the last minute.

I had placed an order for a corsage the night before the prom, hoping it’ll be available the next day for pickup. I got a call from the florist the following morning telling me that it’s not available *gasp* I swear I thought I was gonna die. My son is gonna hate me for this. Then the florist told me he could make something similar to it, and I told him as long as it looks similar and pink, anything is good, the sooner the better, then he said great, it’ll be ready by 12. What a relief.

This week he got a tux given to him from school. Don’t ask me why or how but I feel lucky that they did. If it wasn’t for them, I’m screwed! I wanted to smack myself in the head for not having him try it on the day he got it, cuz the night of the prom we found out that the tux was big. So he ended up wearing one of his own black pants. I totally forgot to buy him a white shirt so he borrowed my dad’s, luckily it fits. And I couldn’t find my dad’s suit jacket, so he wore the one from school. It’s a tad big but it’s hardly noticable.

It was so rushed that he had to leave to meet up with his date. I didn’t get a chance to meet with them, it would’ve been nice to take a few pictures before they went in. I bet they look so cute together. I did manage to take a couple of shots of him before he left. Isn’t he handsome?


He’s really excited, can’t you tell?


It’s very pretty and glittery in person

He also received his cap and gown this week. I can’t believe how big he’s gotten. Felt like only yesterday when he was in diapers and learning how to walk with a pacifier in his mouth, running about. And when I give him a hug, it puts a big smile on his face. Nowadays, he gets embarassed and wants to hang with his friends. Oh God, I’m gonna cry :(

So for anyone who has little ones, enjoy them while you can cuz they’re not gonna be babies for long. Before you know it, their voice is gonna change and start growing hair all over the place and they’re not gonna want to hang with you anymore.

Alot of things had happened that I don’t have time to take care of my site :( I got my job back as customer service *YAY!* and I’ll be doing some smut webdesigning in addition to making banners so I’ll be making extra money, so I’m excited about that. Oh, and about a week ago, I finally got my judgement in the mail after waiting for 3 months. Now I’m officially divorced :) The heat is KILLING me!!! I hope you’re staying cool.

GRRRRR!!!!!
Posted Under Ramblings

You don’t know how embarrassing this is! All my recent post is GONE!!! And I was on a roll too, gettin’ the hang of blogging, posting about my eBay experience, my 101 in 1001 project and all that other good stuff. All the hard work I put into it is gone! I hate that, and as a webdeveloper, this is like my worse nightmare. So, I’m on a different webhost so hopfully I won’t get into trouble again. If it happens again, I might consider giving blogspot a try.

p.s: I hate this look btw. I’m gonna redesign my old layout somehow.
