Shopping

Published by B under Sari-sari

I love shopping! And you know what I love more than shopping? Online shopping, in the comfort of my own home! And I can do it impromptu with my other online friends from other parts of the world. It’s a really nice experience. I can go shopping while doing some work. I can easily do a search for coupons and buying guides before I do some major shopping. In my opinion it’s more practical. I don’t even have too worry about too much crowd or losing my cellphone or wallet to pickpockets.

Anyway, speaking of shopping… are you ready for the Black Friday sales? I’m not going on a shopping spree. But I’ll be looking for some jewelries and watches. I feel I deserve a treat for all the work I’ve done. And I don’t have a watch, would you believe that? I mean, I do have a couple but they’re old already and I haven’t used them for years. Of course, I’ll be on the lookout for really great deals, nobody can resist them. :)

Happy thanksgiving everyone and happy shopping!!!

Belated Christmas Gift

Published by B under Sari-sari

I’m thinking of what to give my cousin as a belated Christmas gift. She is in the US that’s why I haven’t given her a gift yet. Better late than never, right? Anyway, I’m thinking I’d let her choose from Zenni Optical’s huge selection of Holiday frames and surprise her with what she’ll choose. They have a huge wonderful variety to choose from and I’m sure she’d love at least one from their selection. I love this one in particular and I’m pretty sure she’d love this too, we have almost the same style:

I remember on her last visit here in the Philippines about a couple of years ago, she ordered her prescription glasses here because she thought it was much cheaper here. Well, she actually bought the frame from the US and then brought it here and ordered her lenses here. Looks like she’s not familiar with Zenni Optical or else she would have ordered her glasses from there. And I’m going to tell her about it, I’m sure she’ll be glad to hear about it for they have high quality eyeglasses with very reasonable prices.

Twilight Saga

Published by B under Sari-sari

I finally finished listening to the Twilight Saga’s audiobooks and I loved it! I am actually glad I watched the movie first before reading the books because if not, then the movie would have been a huge disappointment. As always, the books are better than the movie but I’ll still be waiting for the release of the movies to complete the saga.

Watching the movie actually helped my imagination while I listened to the audiobooks. I had to watch the movie again because it kinda confused me which parts were actually in the movie. Haha! And it made me love audiobooks so I’m now looking forward for more.

So Much

Published by B under Sari-sari

I have so much to blog but don’t know exactly where to start. I’m still on holiday mode. Haha! All I can say right now is December 2008 was a very expensive month for me… that is why I don’t like going to malls. But it’s okay, it was worth it. I enjoyed it. Just bear with me, I would post about stuff in the next few days. TTFN!

Firecrackers

Published by B under Sari-sari

My BIL, nephew and I went to Bocaue the other day to buy firecrackers. My sister and the kids were also with us. It was my BIL and my nephew who went from store to store to check out what’s new and to compare prices. My sister and I just stayed in the car with the kids. They bought a lot already but they still went back there yesterday to buy some more, this time with my mom and my aunt and uncle. We will all be spending new year’s eve at my aunt’s house together with my cousins and I don’t know how they’re gonna light up all those firecrackers. All I’m absolutely sure of is I’m not gonna help. Haha!

Here’s what they bought:

Firecrackers

Firecrackers

There’s still one more set but my BIL arranged them in a box already and I was too lazy to put them out again just to take some photos. And I don’t know what the names of these firecrackers are and what exactly they do or look like. Haha!

Hot Air Popcorn Maker

Published by B under Sari-sari

Yesterday, my nephew and I practiced cooking for Christmas day. We’ll help prepare our Christmas day food by making Char Kway Teow and Cheesecake. Anyway, while I was browsing the net for recipes, I came across this no-knead bread recipe and it reminded me that we have a bread maker. I told my nephew about it and he didn’t believe me. So, we asked my mom she asked ask to help look for it. While searching, we found our hot air popcorn machine! I missed that one! I think I asked before where it was and they didn’t know. Now we can make popcorn anytime we want without any hassle! And it’ll be perfect this Christmas vacation since my nephew and I are planning to watch a LOT of movies on my dad’s new home theater furniture and TV! Yay!

Junk Art

Published by B under Sari-sari

Have you ever dreamed of becoming a junk art artist? I’ve always been fascinated by those who could create something that’s three-dimensional, and those who could create something who could create something from junk or objects that’s just lying around, from nuts and bolts to ball lock pins. Take a look at this one for example:

It’s a junk yard fish created by Joe Pogan using various found metal objects. Amazing isn’t it?

Faucet

Published by B under Sari-sari

I was browsing Etsy earlier today, looking for wedding gift ideas for my friends and lookie at what I saw:

Haha! I mean, who would want a faucet on their jewelries? No offense, I’m sure there are others out there who might like it but not me. Not that I think it looks silly but I just don’t know what it is for. I always think of those charms as something that you really, really like or something that you can relate to or something that symbolizes something.
