Just Writing

Quilting yesterday was long. I got tired before lunch time. It made me want to go home but I couldn't since I always hitch a ride with my friend. It was a great time though being with the women from church.

I've been really lazy in blogging. There's not much to blog about anyway. I'm just here in our beautiful, cozy apartment trying to apply for job online. I'm not that fortunate yet although I do have plans to study. Hope my friend, Hazel will come back soon so we can go check out the local college.

I must do something productive today!

Playing The Piano

Piano is one of the instruments that I really wanted to learn since I was a child. No one taught me so I don't know anything about it. I know it may not be too late to learn but I think I can just listen to others play. One time in Malaysia, there was lightning and thunder so my friend and I could not go back to our dorm because we were scared. We stayed at the seminary chapel until the lightning and thunder goes away. Then a lady came and started playing the piano. We didn't know she was going to have a piano concert so she practice in the chapel. She is amazing! Our fear suddenly disappeared.
If you want to know about downloading piano sheet music, just check this website. It's really cool because you can download piano music sheets. I think anyone who wants to start learning or have been playing the piano would find this site useful.

Scenic Sunday

One of the parks here in Eugene, I like this place. Please join us in Scenic Sunday. Just post your scenic shots and link to the site.

Trying Times

I visited a debt consolidation website and read what it is about, I got a pretty good information on what it is all about. This website has articles about bankruptcy, credit cards, and all kinds of articles that you'll find helpful in this time of crisis. What caught my attention was the Debt Free Living. I totally believe this because that's how I lived in my country. If you can't afford it, why go through owing money just to get the thing you wanted then suffer later when it gets bigger. This website also offers debt counseling and debt solution. I highly recommend checking this site. 

This Is Funny

Talk About Dying

It's funny how Steven and I would talk about dying and if he started talking about what I should do when he dies, I would start crying. Sometimes he would would stop but other times he would tell me what I need to do. If I talk about me dying, it's fine with me. I just won't be able to take it if it's him. He took a life insurance for both of us. I'm glad that if I die first he gets something. It's amazing that people created companies like life insurance lead just to help those left behind by loved ones. I would be worried if it's my time and leave Steven and my family with nothing. If you are considering to look for insurance companies, just check on the link to this post.

Picnic

Yesterday, Steven and I went for picnic after church with friends who are also from church at Richardson Park. It was a beautiful day but hot! I am so dark now! :( I don't like being dark so much. I'm glad I didn't get burned a lot. It's painful and uncomfortable. Oh yeah! I should start aloe vera plant, that would be soothing for burns. 

It was fun! It was just nice to relax and talk with everyone. I'm just glad Steven's sister let us borrow her van. It was really nice of her. 

KettleWorx Works

The fitness exercise called KettleWorx is created by Ryan Shanahan who is a fitness expert. I got a chance to try KettleWorx for two weeks now and I can't tell you how much I appreciate this fitness exercise. It was just in time because my clothes from eight months ago don't fit me anymore. After just using this fitness exercise, I can fit on them now. I lose 4 lbs is just 2 weeks of using. I'm so happy!

KettleWorx comes with a 5 lbs. Kettlebell for women, 9 exercise dvds. 1 introduction dvd by Ryan Shanahan and 1 companion guide to the six week KettleWorx Body Transformation. It's a guide for you to use that will show what your diet will consist of, measuring your body and just about everything you need to be healthy and fit. I love it!

I had to show it to my husband who loves to exercise and he watched the exercise dvd with me. He also thinks it's a really good fitness exercise and not to scam people. He said someday he will stop going to the gym and will just order KettleWorx.

I am so glad I tried KettleWorx. I really, really recommend buying this fitness exercise. It will work even for those who are really busy with busy women and moms because it comes with a 10-minute Fast Fat Burn video. I know you'll love it as much as I did.

I have received this product for review and was paid for the amount of time to use it and give my honest opinion.

My New Hobby-Gardening

I have a new passion now, planting herbs! Fresh herbs are really expensive here. For a small amount of herbs in grocery stores, it cost way too much. I don't use herbs a lot because of the price. I can still cook without it but they add flavor to your cooking. 

I asked my mother-in-law for a small amount of dirt yesterday so I can replant my flower that was dying. She said she ran out already. Then when we drop her at a grocery store, she got me a big bag of soil for planting. That made me want to plant! She is really nice.

Today, I couldn't stop telling Steven that he needs to come with me to buy seeds for me to plant. He said he will do what his wife wants. Yesterday I went fishing with him so it's his turn :). I got basil seeds for now. I love fried basil with pork. I tried planting some of the seeds using pellets and some in egg carton, others in pot.

Natural Appetite Suppressant

My friend told me about a natural appetite suppressant that singer-actress Beyonce used for slimming. She said I need two tbsp of lime juice, 2 tbsp of honey, and 2 tbsp of cayenne pepper. Mix it with 8 oz of water an drink it. She said to be careful because it will make you go to the toilet a lot. If you want another method also, lipo-6 black is also one. I will try the Beyonce method soon. I want to see if it will work for me. I am hesitant with cayenne pepper but who knows, it might work.

Mother's Day

We made pizzas for Mother's Day celebration yesterday. We brought it to my mother-in-law's house and baked it there. I made a ranch pizza with bbq chicken and I ate 2 big pieces of it. Steven was really disappointed that the pizzas became soggy. It was still good and special. During lunch though before eating those pizza, Steven gave me a treat at a coffee shop. It was so good and really loaded with calories. Then I had rice when we got home and then the pizza and chocolate cake I made. I know I have gained and really trying to lose weight. Sometimes it makes me think of using diet pills with ephedra so I can lose easily someday. Now I must concentrate to really be disciplined with my eating.
