you're officially a girl!!!

Usually, parents have their baby girl immediately after they are born.

I don't exactly know when I had my ears got pierced. 

My parents told me that it was when I was still a baby but I seriously have a hazy memory of me being excessively wild while people around are trying to do something with my ears. 

I have such a weird brain.

For my baby Winter though, her pediatrician/my tita Mel told me to wait until she's a few months old to prevent the hole from widening over time. 

Cause babies have really soft skin and tissues, right?

So.

The glorious, glorious day for the right of passage came. 

I decided that it was time for her to officially become a girl!

First day of September, I asked my mom to bring her to the pediatrician for her immunization and ear piercing. 

before all the pain

for those needing hope... don't quit!!

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
when the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit-
Rest if you must but don't you quit.

Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are, 
It may be near when it seems afar.
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit.
It's when things go wrong that you must not quit.

thank God for technology!!

Since I am so lucky to have work even on weekends, I kind of misses the chance the go to church on Sundays!

Good news to everyone who shares the same sentiment!!!!

Minor Basilica of the Black Nazarene or Quiapo Church offers LIVE streaming of their masses..

there's always a first time

 I was never into online shopping.. The first and probably last thing I bought from the internet is a pair of hazel brown contact lenses from some multiply shop. I don't even remember when that was.. I never really liked wearing contact lenses.. I think I just look good with hazel brown eyes... lololololol. Tiis GANDA!!!

Anyway, my story is my first try at buying in ensogo. Ensogo is a social commerce site that offers deals on products, food, hotel accommodations and many more!! There are a lot of websites like this but why ensogo??

seven is lucky, right?

(prepare for a photoheavy entry)

I somehow felt obliged to write a blog right now just cause it is the 7th day of August and the seventh month day of Winter. Though my shoulders really hurt, I wouldn't want to miss this eventful day.

I planned on really having cupcakes and cakes for today cause I thought that it's lucky for her to celebrate her seventh month since she was born on the 7th day of January and 7 is a lucky number. Get it? Okay, now my mind is just full of the number 7 so I'm gonna stop. lol.

But.. it has been raining like mad for the last couple of days and since last night, the panic has been raised. Floods here and everywhere and the rain just wouldn't stop. So instead of buying a whole bunch of cupcakes by Sonja and a cake from Red Ribbon, we settled for.. whattatops! hahaha.

So here are the photos of today....

she's feeling so winter-y
