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!

One of my most favorite pair of shoes are loafers. I love loafers because it never goes out of style and you can wear it with jeans, slacks, shorts, skirts and dresses. It’s a classic and very comfortable too! I remember my very pair of loafers, it’s Italian and the color is like  a brownish maroon. And I went online window shopping today for loafers at SHOEbuy and here are the pairs that I liked:

Bass Wayfarer

Rockport Cushner

Franco Sarto Cash

Gorgeous, aren’t they? I promise myself I’m going to buy me a pair next year! for the meantime, I have to fix my stuff first and put all the office supplies in one place so it’ll be easier when I’m looking for something when doing a project.

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?

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.

Have you seen these?

It’s a Mickey Mouse MP3 player by iRiver.It’s tiny and it’s cute! I’ve also read that it has good sound quality so considering the price, it is a good buy. It has a LED indicator and you can also use it as a flash storage. The ears are used to adjust the volume and to scroll through the song tracks. It comes with a high-speed USB 2.0 cable and battery life lasts for approximately 9 hours, just connect it to your computer for charging.

I’ve seen a lot of sellers in Multiply and the price ranges from P1200 to P3500, depending on the storage capacity. I’m itching to buy one, the pink one, but I’m thinking if I buy this then buy an ebook reader, then might as well just save up for a second hand iTouch right? My niece bought an 8GB second-hand iTouch in Greenhills for only P8000. And that was a couple of months ago, maybe it’ll be cheaper by the time I buy it. But I’ll still be saving up for these buy a couple for my niece and nephew.

Finally, I got hold of my own copy of the book! After days weeks of searching, National Bookstore in Trinoma finally released a few copies. Good thing I went there with my nephew. I was having thoughts when he asked me if I wanted to come because I was feeling lazy. Haha!

I also saw my friend from high school. We talked a little, more like gossiped, haha, about our batchmates. You know, like who recently got married and got separated, who’s dating who, who’s taking diet pills, etc. These gossips just don’t die, do they? I wonder what they say about me…

If somebody tells me to buy a handheld a couple of years ago, I would just laugh at him and tell him I didn’t need one. For me, that time, handhelds are for executives or someone who’s got a really busy schedule and I didn’t. My life before is just office, home and then Anilao on weekends. But now I want one! Take note… not need but want! Haha! I just realized I need it for reading purposes when traveling. Books are bulky and I need all the space I need when packing my stuff when I go on trips.

I got hold of a copy of Twilight Soundtrack and The Score albums and I listened to both already. The soundtrack was nice. It has a nice selection of songs, a couple were a little off the theme of Bella and Edward’s love story, but the others are good and I like most of it. My most favorite, well aside from Claire De Lune, is Never Think by Rob Pattinson. It sounded like Ben Harper’s style, another one of my favorites.

The Score is also nice, you’ll surely love it if you’re a fan of the movie. You’ll relive the scenes in your head while you’re listening to the album. I especially liked Phascination Phase, The Lion Fell in Love with the Lamb, and Bella’s Lullaby. The second one reminding me of the movie Interview with the Vampire, the scene where Lestat was playing the piano. I’m planning to read the book while listening to this. Haha!

You can read about the movie here.

Tell me what you think of this:

Cute isn’t it? It’s actually a USB flash drive. Now tell me it’s still cute when you see this:

Looks kinda tragic, doesn’t it? Makes me feel sad for the teddy.

A couple of bebot twitters, Ems and Peachy, were talking about boots and it got me curious so I asked which boots they were talking about. They gave me a link to the boots and I want my own pair! I’m gonna get me a pair no matter what, even if it takes 6 months or more before I get it. At least, I know I own it, I just don’t have it yet. Haha! Here’s how it looks like:

And it’s pink… just like my camera! Isn’t it pretty?

And did you see? Shoebuy.com has a promo right now… $20 off $50 or more when you pay with PayPal! Very tempting! But I can’t buy right now. I’m still waiting for something.
