The Pain of Losing Weight

My mother-in-law was telling me earlier that she lost 26 lbs. I should be jealous. I have been running, walking and jogging [not necessarily in that order] for 4 months now and all I lost was 15 lbs which sad to say, I gained back last month after my hubby and I came back from […]

The More the Merrier

I promised that I will not make another blog after Vienna helped me set up Ruthilicious. I promised I will not make another blog because the process that I went through with Ruthilicious was traumatic enough that made me sick of blogging for a day or two. I promised that I will not make another […]

My 3 Ps

Yesterday we went to the city. I drove the car. It was the first time I drove to the city. It was crazy. I was a bit nervous but I think I did a good job. I have to do a lot of driving practice because I really need to take that actual driving test […]

Got a Patient

We thought it was just the alcohol but it looks like Marcus might have caught something because he is still not feeling well until now.
Last Friday, we went out with some friends and watched the Olympics’ opening ceremonies in a bar. After watching, we decided to sit out and finish our drinks there to […]

The Unpredictable

The weather is really unpredictable. We cannot rely on the weather now if we are planning a cook-out, a garden wedding, an out-door birthday party, or simply… hanging out our laundry. It was indeed a crazy week. Just when you thought it will be a real nice day and have high hopes of planning to […]

The Olympics and All

For the first time since we got here, we had a difficulty hailing a taxi!
Last night we decided to eat out with some of Marcus’ colleagues. The initial time agreed upon was 7:00 pm but because it wasn’t easy to get a taxi, we called the other parties to let them know we’ll be late […]

New Flat’s Living Room

Initially, I wanted to take photos of every room of our new flat plus the surroundings because I wanted to upload it and show it here but I remember reading from the lessee’s guidelines that we are not supposed to take photos and videos of the property. So instead of taking pictures of every room […]

No Fleas! Promise!

A couple of months ago, my husband and I agreed to keep a pet once we are settled in our new flat. I wanted to keep a husky but my husband said that it would be more difficult to keep a big pet so in the end, we decided to keep a tinier dog like […]

My First Drive Thru

I went for my first ever Drive Thru at Wendy’s today. Yep, it was my first Drive Thru and as a first timer I was thrilled. I’m still on a permit and still contemplating if I am really ready to take the actual driving test to apply for a valid driver’s license.
Earlier, I went to […]
