The bidding war

It was a really busy Sunday night for me. I was window shopping online when I saw this irresistable toy in Ebay. The starting bid was low so I placed my bid and nonchantly continued surfing the net.

I checked out the Cloud B's Twilight Turtle specs in Google and I was truly amazed with its features. Even if it's in preloved state, I still consider the deal a steal. The brand new would cost around Php2,650 in Multiply and I only initially made a bid of Php409.00.

As the night progresses, somebody placed a bid and I later found myself fighting for this piece of toy for hours... For the three longest hours of my life, I was constantly reloading my Ebay page, on constant vigilance...

The bid ended at Php555.00 and of course, I won the the item!!! I've never been so ecstatic in my life!!! =)

I wanna share with you guys its features so you'd know why I was determine to get the Twilight Turtle by inch or by crook. Hehehe.

On a rainy thursday...

Woke up rather early from a very haunting nightmare I chose to forget. Sat on the porch with Yab while he drank his milk away... He immediately sensed I woke up on the wrong side of the bed... Familiarity breeds contempt indeed.

I started the morning with a scrambled egg for breakfast and chose to flick the tv on. Ellen was on, celebrating her 900th episode. I randomly opened my multiply, yahoo and ebay account for updates...

After a few laughs from the show, my eyes began to droop. Guess my body's not up for such an early rise. I take a look at the clock and it said 9am. I still have at least an hour to take a nap before Yab comes over to take me to my OB appointment.

When I opened my eyes again, my clock said 11am and quickly shot out from bed and accidentally bumped my toes to the door. God that hurt! I barely made it out to the living room when Yab came in and was totally surprised to see me still undressed. I got at least 15mins to get ready or I'll my miss my OB appointment.

A quick shower and voila! I was done... I had to settle with a damp hair, eyeliner-less lids and hurriedly done make-up.

We made it to the appointment on time and to our discovery, we realized we didn't have to wait for long for my name to be called next. Being in the nick of time surely have its perks. No long wait in the reception area. ;)

Right after lunch, I had to go back to Yab's office for the whole afternoon. I had to stay away from home til night time to give way to the disinfectation of our house.

I finally saw Pogi in his bald state and was glad to find out that his skin rashes are getting better. Can't wait for him to get home soon. Too bad, I'm not allowed to touch or play with him... I really miss the guy....

Just as I was getting bored in a confined space, I decided to ramble away in my blog.

Yeah, I'm really that bored.... really that bad on a rainy thursday.

Diego Thomas' first smile

Among baby Diego's 4d pics, this is the most priceless photo I have. Throughout the procedure, he refused to give us a full view of his face so we had to go back in the afternoon to have it redone.


The attempt was futile but nonetheless, he gave us one smile that took our breath away. =)

72 more days to go before the big day!!! ;)

MY NEW FREE PHONE FROM GLOBE

At last!!! After two years of "loyalty" and sky-rocket high bills (hehehe), I got my new free phone from Globe. =)

I was expecting to receive this on Mon (Dec. 8) yet but to my surprise, it arrived today!!! Yipee!

This phone totally exceeded my expectation. The sleek metallic look gives this phone a classy feel. Very lightweight and truly unique. I've given up Nokia phones a long time ago. I find Nokia handsets very common-looking and people would immediately know how much your phone costs with just one look. =(

This one's already 3G capable with 2MP camera... there's truly nothing I could ask for more.

This one's one hell of a freebie!!!! ;)

A heart-breaking day... =(

How can I begin to explain on how I really feel today?

Pogi has been having this skin disease for the longest time. I thought it would just go away but it only got worse.

We don't have any choice but to have them checked with a vet and have him quarantined at Yab's fabrication shop. =(

I'm gonna miss my Pogi badly....

Finally!!!!

After two years of failed attempts, I finally scored myself the most sought after Starbucks 2009 Planner. =)

I don't really find it as gorgeous as the previous planners. This edition's much more plain but nonetheless, such an achievement for my part. Hehe.

We're going for the second attempt, para kay Yab naman. He wants the black one for himself. Goodluck to us! ;)
