Finally met my cousin Tinay’s newest baby boy, Simon. I was so excited to meet him because, well for one, she gave birth after I just recently found out that she was pregnant. So there was no time to chikka the hows, whys, whens. Anyway, check him out. He’s such a cutie-patootie.

I’m getting my feet wet with photoshop.  Part of the reason why I’m addicted to scrapping is because of the time I spent editing.  The original was this pic, and although it was cool as it was, I wanted to show that my focus was really on the reflection.

I wasn’t supposed to create a separate post for this anymore, since this pic is already in my gallery.  But it’s just nicer when it’s bigger. Hehe.  Besides, sayang naman ang days of editing and enhancing kung small version lang ang pinapakita ko.  Hindi maappreciate diba?  Hehehe!

My colleague sent us these pictures and we’re like, okay… we’re property consultants. We should be able to have a clue what this is.

Boy were we mistaken.

kaya pala. hmmm. I still think it’s rated a bit too low.

Your Mind is 47% Cluttered

Your mind is starting to get cluttered, and as a result, it’s a little harder for you to keep focused.Try to let go of your pettiest worries and concerns. The worrying is worse than the actual problems!

How Cluttered is Your Mind?

No wonder my surroundings are a mess! It’s a manifestation of what goes on in my head!

Another tag I snagged from someone I accidentally bloghopped. This one, just asks you to talk of 5 of the best nights of your life. I thought this was a bit difficult. I’m still waiting to add my wedding, baby births to this list. But since none of that yet … eto muna.

At no particular order:

1. January 23, 1979. Okay this is a default answer. How could it not be? I mean, I’ve just been given a gift. What more could I have asked for?
2. Birthday of 2004 - I was 25 and I promised to myself that after that party, I will *grow up*. Went on to have the one of the most memorable party ever with most of my friends present. (Invite the world, kse ang drama).

I discovered digi-scrapping when I chanced upon my friend, Lex’s blog. So when I caught her online one time, I bombarded her with questions, which she happily answered being a scrapping addict. It looked like so much fun that the next time I was able to download, I went through most of her scrap blog links and hopped like crazy.

I created my pamangkins scrap page the other day, but that was nothing. Nothing to the possibility of scrapping.

I have accomplished my very first real scrap page. This was literally an all-nighter including major downloading galore. It was hard to get things started and once I’ve finished with something, I keep trying to change it! But after hours and hours, I’ve finally finished.

The other day, I said that I was working on two I ams. The first was changing I am unclear to I am a work in progress. Thanks Chie and Russ for your change comments, and I totally agree with you. Right now, I’m doing exactly what you’ve advised – be open to opportunities. Chie, so you think my confusion is part of my roadmap? That’s actually a relief to hear!

Anyway, here’s my second I am that makes me feel albeit unhappy when I hear it. Whenever I’m asked “do you have a boyfriend / how’s your love life / any plans for marriage?” and I reply, “I am single”, again I feel the big Loser instinct. Especially, most especially, when the follow up question is “bakit?”.

The World’s Greatest is the theme of Leap 34. Last weekend was their third and final intensive. I chanced upon the leader of the pack over after-dinner last Friday and he asked me, “do you remember what our final rating was for Leap 21?”. Siyempre, hindi na. That was more than 3 years ago. “Guess what our team rating is?”. 100%? “Yep!” Wow! World’s Greatest nga!
