Watery Wednesday

I finally got to join Watery Wednesday again. I took this photo when the kids were out playing the slip and slide.

Breakfast

I had a great time celebrating thee 4th of July here. I've heard of it and always wondered what's it like or how people in America celebrate it.

Friday, July 3rd, it was a holiday for people here which I was really glad because I didn't have to wake up early. Steven went fishing with his brother and nephew while I cleaned the house. It's so different now because I feel bad leaving the house when the chores are not done. Before when I was still single I wouldn't care. In the afternoon, I went to see my friend and got some of her clothes that she won't be wearing. We both cleaned her place too since she and her family just moved in and there were still boxes everywhere. Then Steven and I went to the church group who gathers every Friday and had bbq.

Saturday morning, we went for a walk. It was such a beautiful morning, the air was cool and clean. We took our mail from the university post office and had a hard time deciding where to have breakfast. Finally, we decided to have french toast. We went to Studio One Cafe because they are known for their french toast here in Eugene. No wonder...

Supplies

Are you looking for cad drawing? You can get a free cad library on this site. I've heard about it but this is what engineers and builders know very well. This website also have products that you can browse on and shop online. It is made easier for those who are into this type of business or even just a hobby. Steven might need to check this one out. We need some fixing on our apartment before we move out in August. Hopefully, he'll get the assistant manager of an apartment job so we'll have free rent.

The Soloist

It's been a while since Steven and I watched a movie in a theater together. Today we decided to watch The Soloist. It's a really good film about this guys who is talented in cello and other instruments but he hears voices in his head. It made me cry every time I hear the music. It's beautiful! I love classical music a lot because it makes you appreciate God who created such talent in people who composed the music. The point of the movie though is having a good friend who will stick by you, for good or bad times. It is a movie worth watching.

Memory

I know a lot of people may be encountering a computer memory problem. I need to have my sister's computer memory changed also. She needs to have her own because internet cafes are expensive in her area.
I can't wait to see her and her baby. My niece, Thea, just got out of the hospital. I feel really bad when something happens to her. My nephew, Zach also was sick and was admitted to the hospital. My sister said that the nurses laughed in awe at Thea because she was the one holding her own oxygen. So cute!

Bible Reading

I just studied God's word today and starting on Ephesian chapter 1. I have never really tried an in-depth study of the bible because I don't know how but I tried doing what my husband is doing. I think it's really cool. The bible is a very interesting book. I've always loved reading bible stories but when it comes to the new testament, I read but never really studied. It's about time I do it. More than 20 years of being a believer I thought I know the bible well. There is so much to learn.

My Skin

I love skin care products. I hardly use ever since I moved here in US but I really do enjoy using them. I want to take good care of my skin as much as I can. Also, it is fun to take care of the skin. I really enjoy skin cleansing, applying toner, and then moisturizing. Moisturizers are so important because dry skin can cause wrinkles. I am not against wrinkles but if you to try to avoid it as much then it's good to moisturize the skin.

Shoes for Sale

My husband is selling this shoes. It's a size 19 Nike shoes that was a gift from his dad. Steven is size 18-17 so he can't wear it because it's too big. If you have a size 19 feet and you want to buy this shoes, just let me know :D

Home Fellowship

Last night, Steven and I joined the home fellowship group. There were two Filipinas also but I really regret not meeting them before. Today, they are on their way back to California. I had a great time with the other one but we didn't get to really talk until Steven and I had were almost going home. If only we have a car, I would ask to stay longer and talk to her. She and I just had a great time laughing and talking like we were old friends. I loved it! I also feel more comfortable being with the ladies from my church now. It feels good.

I did get to eat so much food last night though. I made blueberry cobbler and it wasn't as good as the apple cobbler. It really made me want to take a diet pill because I know I will be tempted to eat a lot.

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.
