Sleep Over


Today Kuletz and I are spending the night at my friend's house... My son loves it when we spend soooo much time in their house. Ash is 8 already but they like playing together. They'd have little fights here and there but they don't wanna stop playing once they get along again. Nobody wants to leave whether we are at their house or in our house :)

Friendship - None Of Those Sissy Crap

I got this email from a good friend of mine and I say this is probably the truth about friendship :) Not those typical stuff we get on our email that always sound good and not even close to reality.

Here it goes:


1. When you are sad - I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad.


2. When you are blue - I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.


3. When you smile - I will know you are thinking of something that I would probably want to be involved in.

4. When you are scared - I will rag you about it every chance I get until you're NOT.


5. When you are worried - I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be until you quit whining.


6. When you are confused - I will try to use only little words.

7. When you are sick - Stay the hell away from me until you are well again. I don't want whatever you have.

8. When you fall - I will laugh at your clumsy ass, but I'll help you up.

9. This is my oath.... I pledge it to the end. 'Why?' you may ask; because you are my friend.

You can snatch and re-post this if you want and tag 10 of your closest friends and you'd get depressed because you can only think of 4 :P

Haunted Trails

Our plan today was to go to Chuck E. Cheese's so our kiddo here can play some of his favorite arcade games, but unfortunately, the place was so crowded because there are some kids who are celebrating their birthdays there. So as usual, we ended up going somewhere else. It was a good decision though, because the place is better than Chuck E. Cheese's. It's called Haunted Trails. It's like CC too because it has a restaurant inside and a lot of arcade games but outside they also have a tornado ride, mini golf, a separate go carts for adults and kids, batting cage, and a mini roller coaster (which was under repair). He enjoyed it specially the go cart ride with his daddy. :) I didn't get a good picture in the go car.. they all came out dark.

New Pet

Since we were not able to go to the Shedd aquarium, my son has been telling his daddy about wanting to see some fish. So, the dad decided to take him to the pet store. He checked out all the fishes but ended up buying a bird. I don't know why. :) So here is his new pet bird. This is just like his last parakeet, the only difference is that the last one that died is blue and this one is yellow green. He chose this one by the way.

Adler's Planetarium (Chicago)

We are supposed to go to the Shedd Aquarium again, but the line is soooooooooo long and we found out that the whales, dolphins and penguins are on vacation because their area are being renovated. Since Adler's Planetarium is right next to The Shedd Aquarium, we went there instead.

Here are some of the photos:


he commented on this photo when we reviewed it, he said, "mommy look, i'm sleeping" :D


Kuletz took this photo


this is supposed to look like an article in a newspaper :D

Colon Cleansing


I am a little bit tired tonight, but unfortunately, I still can’t go to sleep. I feel bloated, so I just sat on the bed and started flipping channels. Incidentally, one show that caught my attention was talking about feeling bloated and so as fatigue, gaining weight, skin problems and low energy. They are linking these symptoms to our colon being, as I understand, intoxicated. By the way, one of the functions of our colon is to digest and absorb nutrients from food. Therefore, if we are not in the habit of eating healthy foods, the possibility of building up mucus in the colon is an absolute. Hence, buildups produce toxins that can poison our body. To prevent this, some suggest colon cleansing. I have never heard of many Colon Cleanse products, so I searched the Internet. Dr. Natura.com is one of the sites that I have seen and visited. They are the most popular resource of body cleansing and detox programs and products. If you are interested, you can check their website as well to learn everything about colon cleansing and detoxification. Read the stories of their satisfied customers too. As they say, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

The Man From Manila

My friend Che and Aling Tess sent a text message today telling me that Francis Magalona, The Master Rapper and the Man From Manila, who was also an actor and host, has passed away. He lost his battle to the dreaded Leukemia. I know that it was a great loss to the Philippines' showbiz industry. Some of his songs that I love the most are Mga Kababayan, Cold Summer Nights and Kaleidoscope World.


Francis "Kiko" Magalona
May you rest in peace

That's a million dollar question... eheheehe...

Lingerie Party

I have never attended a party in a while and this one is a blast! I had fun. It was my friend's 30th birthday. She invited me as early as December so she said I don't have a reason not to attend since she told me about it waaay early. It was Lingerie Themed Party and no men was allowed to attend ehehehehe. It was exclusively for girls and girls only. :D

Here's one of the many photos:
