Personalized Wedding Favors

>> Monday, July 6, 2009

It’s always nice to hear that couples will go to tie the knot or get married. It means the starting phase of their lives where they will dream for a home and for their kids. I’ve always love to remember my own wedding several years back. Hubby and I were really excited and at the same a bit exhausted at the preparations we have to do before the big wedding day. Starting with the gowns, guests list, invitation, flower arrangement down to reception, menu selection, cake design and everything that goes with wedding preparation I can say are all tiring but since we want a nice wedding we did all we can to make it a memorable one.

We were just so happy that my sister, cousins and bestfriend helped me with making unique personalized wedding favors because if I will just do it solely maybe I’ll only buy ready-made giveaways. I had three or four unique designs for different group of guests. When my kids saw some that were left in my cabinet they find it very unique and pretty. Actually we saw some of personalized wedding favors online at The Knot Wedding Shop and were excited to find wide variety of wedding supplies and novelty items there. It will be of great ease to those planning to get married. They can shop online, less stress and saves time too.

My Ice Cream Personality

>> Sunday, July 5, 2009


Your Ice Cream Personality:



You like to think of yourself as a fairly modest person. And it's true that you don't talk yourself up... but you're also pretty happy with who you are.

You are a pretty cautious person. You look before you leap, and you don't leap often. There's a bit of a wild child within you, but it doesn't get out often.

You are a fairly open minded person with a wide range of tastes. You are quite accepting of unusual ideas and people.

You are a natural multitasker. You feel alive when you're doing more than one thing at a time.

You are a serious and contemplative person. You definitely do your own thing in life.

The Ice Cream Personality Test

Oh I really ice cream and so I took this test and was quite happy with the result because it says a lot similar to myself. Funny that it's just a simple funny personality test but it's 90% true!

:Photohunt 168: Pink (Flowers)

>> Saturday, July 4, 2009


I've chosen these beautiful flowers for my entry this week. These are two flowers with different shades of pink but both are equally pretty. I've always loved pink flowers ever since I was a kid because it's so feminine and it exudes an air of innocence just like white ones. The first photo was taken in the garden of St. Audry Learning Center where Josh is studying and the second photo is just over the fence, from my cousin's pots of flowers, nice resources :-) I have another entry at my Beyond Horizons

The Car Connection

I’ve known some friends whose hobby is to collect cars, improve it and when he has used it for some time he sells it. He just has some fascination over cars and he feels good every time he turns a simple car into a fashionable and sleek car. Actually it doesn’t only feel good but it pays as well. As for his own personal car he prefers those seen on car pictures online. He’s always into finding and searching updates on styles and designs for his buy and sell car business.

Just recently he’s been browsing the Car Connection site and he found information and reviews about this super cute 2 door mini cooper with convertible top, the smallest in the US. It’s still the same Mini car as the previous ones but there’s a bit change in roofline and side windows. Now you can have it and choose among some variety of interior design. Anyway he’s just curious but this mini cooper may not be of much usage to him. He just wants it for display and short travel. As I’m very interested by his browsing I tried the site myself and found for myself various reviews on many sleek and beautiful cars. You can read what the buyers have something to say for their cars.

As I browsed more I’ve noticed this best selling Chrysler pride the dodge ram 1500 I know this car because my sister works for a company that distributes Chrysler products in the Philippines. Even if the country is suffering a major economy crisis some individuals can afford to have many vehicles as they wish and this one is great as many people wanted pickups for their field jobs. It’s more applicable than using a car especially on non-urban places. With this one you can be assured of a smooth ride and great help to tow vehicles on the road.

For car enthusiasts this site has a lot to offer in terms of showcasing your favorite models of cars and in bringing awareness to public and would be buyers what the car has in store for the buyer. It provides tips, photos and full reviews on style, performance and quotes. All reviews on each and every car featured in their site will be of great help to the consumers. The last I read a review on is the ford f 150 which is also familiar to me as I like pickups though I’m just a novice when in terms to cars. Well there’s no doubt about the selling capability of this pickup especially now that it has been improved. So with the current update on this pickup with an improved box frame and superior performance in towing and hauling you can be sure you’re in safe travel. For those interested in cars and seeing reviews on their most wanted models you can visit their site and see for yourselves.

Beautiful Lights to Brighten Up Your Homes

We took after our father’s love for designing houses. I think it runs in the family although it’s just my brother who pursued the field of civil engineering. My sister and I entered the world of computer courses. I remember when we were younger we used to spend our summer vacation designing and planning our dream house and we used to supplement our design with floor plans just like the real engineers. Well as my brother is into construction business now doing design and supervision on residential houses and buildings his talent and skills were directed properly into a lucrative source of income.

When we get to talk about his projects I asked him the latest trends in construction and designing and I usually delve further into his style in home lighting because I’m really interested in these things. I’ve always loved looking at beautiful houses with nice lighting because it exudes a warm ambiance and even on the outside houses looks noticeable. Lights make a lot of difference when it comes to the aura of the house be it in the dining, living room or kitchen area. It reflects the personality of the owner of the house if they’re conservative, modern or simple family. Actually if I see the ceiling light fixtures of the house I visit I can tell some characteristics of the people living in the house. It really reflects some of the owner’s personality.

Choosing the perfect lighting for your house can be tasking though as you’ll need to visit various shops to compare designs, stocks and prices. To help you with it you can go to Farreys which offers various choices of the finest light fixtures and products for your specific requirements and needs. They have what you want when it comes to lights like chandeliers, lamps, pendant lights, accent lighting, home lighting, outdoor lighting and many other lights particularly made to brighten up your home. You can be assured of their products’ quality, good craftsmanship and beautiful designs. Visit their site and transform your homes now.

Xbox 360

>> Monday, June 29, 2009


I’m not so keen on playing online games because I spent my time reading books and online studying. I prefer surfing different sites than spending my time gaming. But with my kids of course they love games so much even if I only allow them only on weekends because I can monitor them what kind of games they played. They’re contented enough to surf games over the net because they’re still young but when I asked my teenager nephew he wants XBox because he can play games, compete with other players online and enjoy multi-media.

I browsed through sites which offered Xbox 360 and found out that there are consoles and accessories aside from the games that they sell. Now upon checking available games my nephew decided on racing games just like my choice. Anyway there’s a lot to choose from and you can pick by piece or buy a bundle which for me is a good deal. One good thing is it’s not just games and songs but you can also watch HD TV shows and movies. That’s a lot for a good deal price.
