Yeheyyyyyyyyy, my fave day of the week is finally here,:) I truly heart Fridays coz it's the start of the weekend and it means relaxation! But before relaxing today, I worked for 6 hours first. 4hours in my "kuskos" every Friday and 2 hours in the other one. I should have done it last Tuesday, but C. (the name of my kuskos every Tuesday) was in the hospital giving birth to a baby girl. I saw the baby today and she's really cute. I finished the 4 hours cleaning at 1pm then I walked home for about 30 minutes and then checked my email and took a nap for about an hour and went to the other kuskos just next door.
I'm suppose to go to Ate Bren's place today and be with my friends, but I was already very tired to go. So, here I am enjoying the solitude. And I'm currently watching "Bee Movie" and I'm loving it.:) It's so funny. I'll tell you more about it when I'm done watching.
I have to continue watching the movie. Enjoying the weekend everyone!

Alone in here
Here I am in my apartment,alone yet happy.:) I was done with my general cleaning at 2pm and so happy coz my female employer told me that I don't have to make dinner coz they're going out tonight,:) I'm so lucky these days, 2 days without making dinner!Great!hehehe.
I already chatted with my bf in the net for about an hour. And here I am savouring the silence of my apartment. Enjoying the serenity.:) I'm also connecting with my virtual friends through my fave forum, Tubag Bohol. And I'm still thinking of something worthwhile to do aside from chatting, surfing and blogging of course,:)
I'm also checking the memory foam mattress at bedinabox.com and the idea of taking a nap is very tempting, after watching all the foam mattresses in the site. Hmmmm, if no post follows after this, it means that I'm already dozing off,hehehe.

No cooking today
I did a lot of cleaning in my employer's place today. I did a semi-general cleaning since the couple arrived from Austria today, so the house should be clean as usual. The grandparents also left the house today, so I had to change the beddings and vacuum the place. There were a lot of feathers in the mater's bedroom from the comforters that they used. They took their own comforters with them. I also opened al the windows to allow fresh air to circulate in the rooms. The oldies as are not organized and sanitary as my employers,:)
I also cleaned the glass windows today. And at about 12noon, I was already done with my work, so I went down to my apartment to relax for 3 hours. And before 3pm, I woke up from my nap coz my phone received a message. It was from my male employer telling me that I don't have to prepare dinner. Yeheyyyyyyyyy, what a lucky day! I'm always happy everytime they tell me not to prepare dinner,hehehe.
And so, I continued sleeping and afterwards, surfed and research about some business in the net. My eyes are already aching, but I'm still here in front of lappy coz I still wanna read more,:) But I have to stop soon coz it's almost 12 midnight and I still have to work tomorrow at 7am.
So bye for now friends, have a nice evening and goodnight! Sleep tight and don't let the bugs bite!:)

My eyes are aching once again
My semi-holiday is still on and it will end tomorrow,:( But it's ok though, atleast got some free time. Today, I did enjoy 6 hours of free time before I went back to work at 3pm to prepare dinner. I had a great time today. But the only bad news is that, my eyes are aching once again,huhuhu. Blame it to too much time looking at lappy's screen!:(
Despite the pain, but here I am, still surfing the net for different things. I already surfed about diseases and other health stuffs, Corpus Christi real estate and other related business, Google meaning of difficult words,and right now, I'm surfing for home-based jobs in the hope of looking for an extra job that I can just do here at the convenience of my apartment.
I have to sleep early tonight coz I'll go back to my normal work tomorrow. And I'll do a lot of cleaning tomorrow since my employers will be coming home from Austria.
Have a nice evening and goodnight everyone!

A semi holiday
My monday is soo relaxed and I'm having my semi holiday starting today til Wednesday,:) Well, I decided to call it a semi holiday coz I still have to work in my employer's place for about 3 hours every morning, just tidying up. As I've said before, my employers went to Austria for a vacation and the children are left home with the grandparents. But I'm not totally free though coz I have to go to the house every morning, same time (7am) to prepare the lunch box of the kids and then clean after their mess.:) But luckily, the grandparents told me this morning that I don't have to prepare dinner though coz they're going to take care of it! Hayyyyyy, I was really relieved coz that's what I'm hoping and praying for,:) I also need to have my winter vacation. I used to have a week of winter vacation in Denmark,:)
And so here I am, so relaxed here in my apartment. I was done cleaning in the house about 10am this morning and been surfing and watching movies. And at around 1 or 2pm, I dozed off and woke up at around 4pm. And I was just done cleaning my apartment and I like the aura in here so much coz it's so clean and fresh,:) I opened the door for about 20 minutes for the fresh air to circulate inside. I also put some laundry in the machine and here I am sitting in front of lappy and listening to Bob Marley's music.
I can't complain. Life is really beautiful and I'm always thankful to God for it! May God be praised at all times!

The weekend that was
I had a great weekend and I hope that you had a great one too. My Saturday and Sunday were spent most in Mariagården listening to the talks in the CLS and I really love it coz it refreshes my soul and the activity made me knew my brothers and sisters more. We really had fun bonding with one another.
And after the activities, I spent the nights at Nanay D. and Tatay T.'s place together with my sisters S. and J. We really felt like princesses there coz Nanay and Tatay really took good care of us and Nanay cooked good foods. We were amazed that when we woke up,she was already done with the cooking and everything. She's really a Super Nanay.:)I just hope that I'll be like Nanay, very energetic and kind. I told my friends that Nanay and Tatay's place really shows that they always welcome visitors coz they have a lot of spare mattresses and Nanay always shop for foods to stock in the freezer. They have 2 children but all are already living on their own. So it's just the 2 of them in their place most of the time and a lot of adopted sons and daughters visiting,:) And it would be more fun if they'll have home theater popcorn machines, so it will be more easy and fun for us watching TV. We'll be very spoiled if that happens.:)
Yesterday, we woke up late, around 11am since the activity resumes at 3pm. And we watched "baby's day out" in the TV, but then we went to the venue already before the movie was finished. We wanted to watch it til the end coz we had so much fun, but we just can't coz we'll be late if we did. We also attended the 6pm Mass and afterwards, I went home directly. I was tired, so I dozed off directly after making some order with my things.

My Thursday and Friday
As usual, I had my general cleaning last Thursday and I did put oil unto the floor of my employer's place. I woke up late and started working late though since my host family was away.:) I was done at around 3pm and I went down to my apartment to relaxed. I did surf, chat with friends and did some other things, but too bad and I didn't find a way to blog in here,:( And this is my very first post since Thursday morning,:(
I also woke up late on Friday and I went to my "kuskos" for 4 hours. Afterwards, I went to the City for the CLS. But because the activity was still at 5pm, so I went to my fave shop to window shop. But when I came there, there was a sale going on (several items were already 29 NOK; a very good sale indeed) and bought 3 items,:)
Bunso found me in the store and so we went together to Mariagården for the CLS. We were so glad coz there were 8 new participants for the SFC in the CFC-FFL CLS. Yeheyyyyyyyyy, more SFC which means more fun and more friends,hehe.

A relaxed wednesday
Nahhh, I lost track of time lastnight, so I wasn't able to blog in here. I was about to post my day yesterday here, but then I was so busy chatting with my CWL family that I completely forgot about it.
Anyways, my Wednesday was very relaxing. No need to hurry and do all things at one time. My hostfamily left for a skii vacation yesterday. I did mopped the floor and I'm going to apply oil on it today. And after mopping, I went back to my apartment and started sitting infront of lappy until 12:30am,:( Ohh, I forgot, I went to the store to buy some foods (fruits, milk and oatmeal) for me and I walked for around 50 minutes. That was really good coz I need some exercise too,:)
And today, I woke up late, around 8:30am. I set the alarm at 7am but I just ignored the alarm and continued sleeping. And then at around 8:30am, one of my friends, Ate Diza, called me. And we talked for about 30 minutes. And after that, I prepared myself and ate breakfast. And then opened lappy,hehehe.
I'm going to my employer's house in a while for the general cleaning. See you later friends!

Cabinet pulls
The doorknobs at home are not that elegant, but they're atleast presentable. But maybe, we can change them someday. Our cabinets are not done yet. We havn't put permanent cabinet pulls coz the kitchen is not yet done and my Mama's cabinet in the dining area is still under construction. And my brother told me that he'll be the one to take care about the house construction from now on. He don't want me to share anymore,:)He want me to save already and prepare for the future family.:) But of course, he'll still listen to my advices. So I'll advice him about the style of the cabinet pulls, something elegant and nice and I hope that he'll like my suggestion too.
My Tuesday and The Green Mile
My day yesterday was just fine. I was not busy at all and had a lot fo free time,:) I didn't walk the child to school coz she's too lazy to do it. And they're not in a hurry to deliver the kids on time coz this week is vacation week for the children and they don't have regular classes, they only go to SFO. A program where parents can leave their children to play and do some other fun stuffs.
Been reading the novel "The Green Mile" by Stephen King months ago, but I only speed up my reading lately until I can no longer put it down. So I continued reading the novel til the end after my hostfamily left.:) The short summary of the story, you can read in my other blog, Around d' World. It's really a good novel and I recommend it to you too.:)
I went to my "kuskos" and worked there for 2 hours. And then I relaxed for about an hour in my apartment. But too bad and I quarreled with my bf and until now we ate still having the "cold treatment",:(
I prepared shrimps with vegetables for dinner, but the children hated it as usual. So my female employer asked me not to make shrimps anymore coz the children don't like it. Though they she and her hubby liked it much, but we have to stop preparing it coz the children are not eating. So I told the children to eat what I made coz it will be my last time to prepare it. Good thing and the eldest child listened to me and ate a little portion,:) She ate a lot of rice though.
I also chatted with my friends and joined the CWL conference. We had fun and I learned a lot of new terminology made by the CWLians,hehehe. But I only stayed for 2 hours coz I went back to blogging and dozed off at around quarter to 1am.
Let's talk about wires
As I saw CAT6 and all the other wirings at blackbox.com, I suddenly remember all the wire connections in the office of my employers, as well as in the office of my extra. The offices have a lot of wires and it makes the rooms look messy,:( Wires for the telephone connection, the internet and some other connections. Though I wanted to arrange them and try to make it less messy, but I'm scared coz I might ruin one of the connections and I don't want that to happen.
My hostfamily is away today coz their going to the mountain to skii and they'll stay there until Saturday. So I don't have to be in a hurry in doing things. I'll just take it easy and nice,hehehe. I suddenly remember Tina Turner's intro to the song "Proud Mary".:)

Yesterday was Papa's birthday
Yes, it's Papa's 49th Birthday yesterday, February 18. He was born on February 18, 1959, but too sad ahd he was not able to celebrate his 49th birthday with us. But nevertheless, we did celebrate yesterday. My family back home prepared some food (spaghetti, chicken joy, bread, softdrinks) for Papa's birthday yesterday. Mama also prayed the Novena for him.
I really missed Papa soo much, but I'm always comforted in my belief that he's only physically absent from us. But spritually and emotionally, he is always with us, still caring, protecting and loving us as always. I always pray to God to give Papa an eternal life and please also include him in your prayers.
Papa, wherever you are, I want you to know that we love you very very much and we missed you too. You are always in our hearts and minds. May your soul rest in peace Pa.
And my Monday went just fine. A little bit busy cleaning, but I still had the time to relax in the afternoon. Don't have the time to blog though coz I was so hooked with Stephen King's "The Green Mile",hehehe. I devoted my free time reading the book, I just can't put it down anymore. And after my duty, I was still very tired from the weekend, so I decided to sleep early, around 9:30pm.
Men's jewelry
I stumbled into a jewelry site with a men's jewelry section and I suddenly remember my brother and his love for jewelries. Since we were still kids, he already liked wearing jewelry. I remember that she would always borrow my Mama's necklace and wear it as if it's his own. and until we became grown-ups, his lvoe for jewelries never fades. When we went to Manila to look for jobs, the first thing he bought with his money was a gold ring with an anchor in it,:) He's really into jewelries and for sure, he will be inlove with the site www.jewelelegance.com. But I'm not going to tell him about this site now coz he might be tempted to buy. But it's not yet a good time to buy coz he's still paying some debts back home. So for now, jewelry sites are off-limits for him,hehehe.
The weekend that was
Hi everyone! I finally got the time to blog here after the weekend! I had a busy weekend, that's why I havn't make updates here.
Friday, I went to my "kuskos" for 4 hours, but I worked there for 5 hours instead coz of my dysmenorrhea.:( I'm supposed to go to the presentation practice for the wedding anniversary of our SFC coordinator the following day, but the schedule was changed to 7:30pm, so I decided to go home to my apartment and make some rest. I was very tired when I arrived. And then at around 6:30pm, I started walking for the bus stop and arrived at the meeting place at exactly 7:30pm. We waited and only 2 of us showed for the practice, so we're no longer sure if we can still present the play,:( I went to Ate Brenda's place and slept there. I finally dozed off at around 1am and woke up around 10am.
Saturday, I went to the Church to attend the wedding of Tatay Tito and Nanay Diding, one of the couple coordinators of SFC. I'm supposed to take the bus with my other sisters, but one of the Handmaids offered us a lift. Good thing coz it's my first time to go to the location, so atleast, we don't have to worry on how to get there anymore. I wore my black velvet dress for the first time with yellow accessories (yellow earrings, headband and shoes,:)) We were not able to present the play coz we were not able to have a real practice,:( But the wedding anniversary was successful. The food was great and we had fun dancing and participating in the "bouquet catching". But it was done differently. Each single lady got a balloon with a note inside and the bride had a magic wand with a sharp end and she has to pop the balloon with her wand. The lucky girl who will get the bouquet is the one with the note "congratulations, you will be the next bride". And unfortunately, my note says " If he's going to see you barefoot in the snow, he'll tell you "why are you here? you should be in the M----- hospital!", susss ko nakakaloka talaga, ginawa pa akong baliw.ahehhe.Sabi nga ng mga tita and tito, baka nga raw doctor ng mga baliw or nurse ang partner ko kaya ako mapupunta sa Mental hospital,hehehe. I went home early to Ate Bren's place coz my friend, Tonet, is having a little celebration. She celebrated the fiesta in her place and prepared some food for us. And we had fun dancing after eating.:)
Sunday, we attended the 9:30am Mass at St. Joseph and had a bonding time with Melvie and Jhouy at the Kirkekafe while eating some food. And afterwards, Melvie and I went to Nanay Amy and Tatay Boy's place for the Household. We went there early coz my dagskort will expire in an hour. We watched the MMK episode with KC there while waiting for the others to come. It was really a nice and touching episode. The HH was also some sort of farewell gathering for Leefel who will be going to Italy for a new adventure. She's one of the HH leaders in the community and I really admire her for her service and dedication to God through the community. I knew her since my Denmark days coz she also worked there for 2 years. Nanay Amy's teacing was really good. It was all about obedience to God and how obedient we are to HIM. Everyone shared and we ate afterwards.
We took the train at 5:16pm. Most of our ocmpanions went to Church to attend the 6pm Mass. Melvie and I went home directly and as I arrived in my apartment, I just put my bog and other stuff in the sala and went directly to bed. I wanted to blog but don't have the energy to. I was really drained, but I didn't complain coz the weekend was really a fruitful and uplifting one,:) Thanks God.
I hope you had a nice weekend too.

Happy Heart's Day!
I hope you are all celebrating this day full of love with your family anf friends. And hope that love will not only fill our hearts today, but as always,:) I did send a text message to my beloved mother, informing her how lucky I am to have her and Papa as my parents,:) and I also sent messages to the rest of my loved ones.
I had a nice day today. I had my general cleaning in my employer's place and I was done at around 1pm. I used to clean slowly, but today, I didn't waste time coz I had an online date with my bf,hehehe. The least that we could do since we're far from each other. After cleaning, I went down to my apartment and chatted with my bf. Glad that we didn't argue about something,:) I always find ways to argue with him, but this time, I choosed not to. It's Valentine's day after all,hehehe. We chatted for more than an hour.
I made fried fish with sauce for dinner, but the preparation was a little bit of a disaster. I took out the "laks fisk" (laks fish, don't know what's laks in english,:)) from the freezer before I went down to my apartment. But when I came back, the fish was still a little bit frozen, so I soaked it in water and strained the water. The frying was really a disaster. Oil was flying all over the oven and the fish turned into small pieces as I turned it. And I was also keeping an eye outside coz scared that my hostfamily will come already and I'm not yet done with the cooking. Finally, I did manage to fry all the fish and really praying that they'll come late and that they'll like the food.
I was really multi-tasking that time. Frying, making the sauce, cooking the rice and calling my friend, Ate Eves, for help on what to do to save the fish.hehehe
Indeed, God heard my little request coz they came home late, around 5pm coz they went shopping on the way home. Lucky me! And the female employer was not eating with us coz she has to make an over-time. And the moment they came, I had already prepared everything. The rice, the sidedish-vegetables and the fried fish with sauce.
And 2nd prayer was also granted coz my male employer liked the fish and keeps on saying that it was really good,:) I was really relieved! Though the children didn't eat the fish at all, but it's okey coz they're always picky and can't really understand them at time. When I'll make pansit, they'll say that they like it, then the next time I make it, they'll say that they don't like it at all,:) But it's the approval of my employers that matters, so I'm pretty happy that he liked the food I prepared. It was my first time to make that dish, that's why I'm worried about the result. I bought that fish weeks ago, but didn't really cook it until today coz not sure if they'll like it. And so I finally made the risk and glad that they liked the result,:)
sorry for the long rant,hehehe.
a great wednesday and a CWL session
I had a great day yesterday. I'm about to blog about it lastnight, but I lost track og my blogs as I joined the CWL conference. I'm just so happy to be reunited with my CWL family,hehehe. CWL is composed of my online bol-anon online friends all over the globe. We already knew one another for I think more than a year now. Due to our busy schedules, we seldom have our conference na, not like before that we were doing it almost every night. And yesterday was like a reunion of some sort. It was really a very lively conference.I had a great time,:)
I was not so busy at my employer's place yesterday coz I only tidy up a bit. And then I went to my "kuskos" for 2 hours. And then relax for about 2 hours and started preparing dinner. I made pansit yesterday and afterwards, I went to school and picked up the eldest child. And I was off at around 5:30pm coz we ate dinner early.

I slept early yesterday and I only worked for 3 hours today
I had a nice day yesterday and a little bit busy. Monday is always a little bit busy ay for me coz there's a lot of clutter in the house after the weekend,:) But I still had plenty of time to blog yesterday, but I choosed not to blog and instead decided to doze off early,:) Smart move,:)
I attended the 9:30am Mass on Sunday together with my friends and we went to Ate Bren's place afterwards. And there, we went crazy,hehehe. We had a videoke session and we were really very noisy,:) We went home at around 7pm and I came here in my apartment around 8:30pm. But I went to bed late (around 12:30 am) coz I had fun reading different blogs.
So yesterday, I really decided to sleep early pra makabawi..heheh.And true enough, I hit the bed at around 9:40pm and woke up at 6 in the morning, feeling fresh:)
And today, I only worked for 3 hours coz my female employer is working at home. She walked the eldest child to school and I started cleaning the house and doing the laundry. And at around 10am, I was already off duty. Lucy me!!:) I really have a lot of time to blog and do other things, but this is really the very first entry I made for today in all my 4,aww 5 blogs,hehehehe. I didn't feel like writing really. I just surfed for different things and did my favorite past time, dozing off!!hehehe.
And now, I'm chatting with one of my classmates in high school (1st year). She's also working as an au pair in Denmark and she's also living in Randers, where my brother is right now.
So got go for now and I'll keep you posted tomorrow. Have a nice evening everyone!

A weekend spent in solitude
Yes, I did spend the weekend in solitude here in my apartment and I'm loving it,:) I'm supposed to go out yesterdat to attend the SFC GA, but because of the babysit, so I want not able to attend. The couple came home from the party at 3am. I went down to my apartment afterwards and dozed off til 9:30am. And I decided not to go out anymore and just stay here and enjoy the weekend all by myself once again,:)
I'm going out early tomorrow though coz I'm going to attend the english Mass at 9:30am. The Church has been planning to have 2 english Masses on Sundays to divide the churchgoers coz the Church is not that big and there's a lot of people. And finally the early english Mass will start tomorrow and it would be every Sunday already. We are so happy about this coz we've been hoping for an early Mass every Sunday coz 6pm is already very dark expecially during winter.
So I have to doze off early coz I have to wake up early tomorrow. But before finally going to bed, I have to visit the site that features "patch panel" and see what is it. It just appear as an advertisement in the site that I surfed.
Goodnight everyone!

Babysitting once again
I'm here in my hostfamily's place, looking after the children coz the couple went to a party. And guess what? O flared up as usual. The youngest child started crying as the parents left and she wants me to ring her mother. So I did, but she kept on crying. I left her in her room and once again she shouted at me and told to call her mother. Maybe the mother was already irritated and so put the phone down.
I did a lot of techniques just to stop the girl from crying. I raised my voice, bribe her for a bottle of milk, but still she continues crying...and it really annoys me. And so I ignored her and started opening my lappy. And she came near me and so an idea came to mind. I bribed her to allow her to watch cartoons in my lappy of she'll go to her room and then I'll bring the lappy there and we'll watch cartoons together. At first, she refused. She insisted to watch downstairs, but I insisted too. This time I have to win and put the child to bed. And so, she went upstairs and I followed with my lappy. I searched "cinderella" in Youtube and choose an english episode that lasts for 4 minutes. She didn't understand the language, but she enjoyed watching it. She started to lie down and as the episode ends, she said she watch more. And in my staggering norwegian, I told her that the next episode will be uploaded tomorrow and she can watch it tomorrow at her mother's lappy. And with that, she said ok and lie down peacefully..without any crying. Hayyyy, atlast, I was relieved from the anger and the burden.
And I suddenly realized that I should always control my anger especially in handling children. Just can't solve the situation if I flare up. I really have to work on my patience. It's getting shorter really,:(

A busy thursday for me
I really had a busy, but successful Thurday. I did the usual general cleaning and I started early since I didn't walk the eldest child to school. Her mother did. I was done at around 12:30 and chatted with my bf afterwards. He said that I looked tired. Indeed, I was! We ended our conversation at around 2:40pm and I went back to work. I prepared spring rolls and set the table.
We had 3 visitors for dinner. Our preggy neighbor and her 2 sons. Good thing and my male employer and the hubby of our preggy neighbor were not there to dine with us. If it happened, don't know where to get 2 extra chairs for them,:) My female employer was so happy coz I already prepared everything, including the seat arrangement and all.
Though busy and tired, but I'm happy coz the visitors liked my dish. The preggy neighbor even joked that she wants to order some and my female employer answered that it's a nice idea and that we can start a business,:)
I'm going to my kuskos tomorrow, so I have to go to bed early. At least before 12, that's my definition if early anyway,:)
The only sad thing about today is that, my female employer asked me to babysit tomorrow at around 7pm. So it means that I can't attend the SFC's GA tomorrow. The SFC activity of the week that I'm really looking forward to,:( Too bad. This is really what irritates me, coz they're not telling in advance about their scheds. They usually asked me to babysit, one day or 2 days before. :( Maybe, I should tell them about my sched, so they won't ask me anymore if I'm available or not. :)

Ash Wednesday
Today is Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent and I'm so happy coz I was able to attend the Ash Wednesday Mass at Saint Joseph Church in Oslo. There were actually a lot of Mass schedules in the Church today, but the one I attended together with my friends, was the 8pm English Mass.
The homily was very inspiring and informative. The Church calls all of us to make penance for our sins during the Lenten season. And we are also called to give up something like watching TV a lot, alcohol, entertainment,etc. and make a difference. The Church is encouraging all of us to devote more time for the Lord and try our best to be closer to Him. We are also called to fast for 40 days, just like what Jesus did in the dessert. Though if you will count the days starting today until the Holy Week, it's more than 40 days. But it's because Sundays are not included in the counting. The priest says that Sundays should not be a fasting day, but a feast day in honor of God's resurrection. Hmmm, I learned something today. Though I'm sure that it has been explained by the priests in our place and in my religion classes before, but the information sounds new to me. For sure, I didn't pay attention before, that's why I missed this explanation.
I will really try my best to make this Lenten season a very meaningful one for God's greater glory and for my own good. I hope that you'll have a meaningful Lenten too.:)

Car spoilers
Been hearing and encountering the term "car spoilers" many times, but I don't exactly know what it is. All I know is that it's a name of a car's body part, but just can't figure out what it is. How about you, can you identify a car spoiler? Or is it just me who don't know about it? Ohhh my, what a shame in my part,:(
So, I googled the term and found the answer been looking for. It's better late than never knowing about it at all. And here it comes.:) A spoiler is a kind of wing that is mounted on the rear of the car in a parallel position. Its purpose is to provide high speed stability. And car spoilers come in several kind such as a front spoiler, or air dam, which is positioned under the front bumper. A rear spoiler, sometimes called a wing, mounts on top of a car's trunklid and is used in racing to create downforce. For pickups, there are also cab spoilers, tailgate spoilers, truck cap spoilers and tonneau cover spoilers. There are also rear window spoilers for SUVs, minivans and even cars.
Thanks Google for this information and I can now identify a car spoiler if someone asks me about it.:)

Chatting at YM
I started making a post lastnight for this blog about my day and some opps, but the one I started was not done with my online friend who is a priest invited me to the conference. The YM confe that we used to call CWL. And so I joined right away, though there were just 5 of us chatting, but it was a lot of fun. I already enjoyed it and downside? I just completely forgot about the post that I started to write until I went to bed,:(.
I had a nice day yesterday. I was not that busy coz I already changed all the bed linens during the weekend. But I did a lot of laundry though coz my hostfamily went to the mountains to ski and they always bring their own linens with them. And then, I made pansit for dinner,but there was a lot of leftover since it was only me, my male employer and the youngest child who ate dinner at home coz my female employer worked late and the eldest child visited her classmate.
Today, mopped the wooden floor in the upper part of the house and I'm going to apply a special oil to the floor tomorrow. I made chicken with vegetables for dinner. And I also went to my "kuskos" in the morning for 2 hours. All in all, I had a nice day today and hope you had a nice Tuesday too. :)

As I visited www.reserveatlakota.com, I suddenly wished that I'm extremely rich. Rich enough to invest with Winter Park real estate and live a luxurious life at Winter Park, Colorado.

And the good thing about it is that, the beautiful enclave of 14 mountain residences is being sold via a unique fractional ownership model and the starting amount is really affordable to those who have extra savings outthere. It's an innovative twist on vacation homes that merges the ultimate Colorado mountain getaway with the perks of luxury home ownership.

Just got back from the weekend
Hi everyone! I hope you had a nice weekend and a blessed sunday, just like mine.:)I just arrived from my short weekend. I just stayed here last Friday all by myself and went out on Saturday afternoon to attend the SFC gathering at 5pm. But once again, I would like to ask sorry because I havn't blog though I just stayed here in my apartment coz I still felt so lazy and decided to watch movies and doze off instead,:)
I had a relaxed time here in my apartment on Friday and yesterday. And I also had a great time during the SFC teaching. I really learned a lot of things and the teaching really helped me a lot to realized on things. It has awaken me and from now on, I'll try my best to change what has to be changed in me. I'll elaborate about the teaching on another post, to make emphasis about it.
Basta right now, I feel so happy and so relieved to let go of all the worries that I have and just completely trust the LORD in everything. Thanks God for making me see the things that I still have to change for the better. I love you so much!
