Self Made Swiss Miss

I was rummaging through my things but I think I already ran out of chocolate drinks since last week. I haven't been eating in the office and I drink a mug or two of these so I can get by. My stomach rumbles every time and I need to fill it up a bit each time I feel like it. I was looking for my favorite Swiss Miss which some of you might have had right?! and I couldn't find one at 7-11 so I went ahead and made my own version of Swiss Miss. I made one better! =)

I bought a couple of Ovaltine 3 in ones that I got for only 9 bucks for a single serving then bought a whole pack of MAX MALLOWS. I made the chocolate drink hot and then put in a couple of big mallows on it then POOF! I got my Swiss Miss substitute! Haha! To think about it, it was kinda better than swiss miss because the marshmallows were sweeter and bigger. It was kind of hard doing that in Swiss Miss because they had small ones that came in with your drink. This was indeed a treat and I'm sure if you had one yourself or for your kids they will enjoy it! I could have bought a lighter and made smores too to go with it! =)

Relaxing A Bit...

I took time to stop and do nothing this weekend to do one of the most luxurious things while most people suffer in the sweltering heat of the sun; I took a very long bath in the tub. I got those fancy salts commonly seen in spas and used them to exfoliate because I was turning a little tan even if I haven't seen the beach in a while. It was perfect because no one was at home and the silence was more like therapy in some way. It puts you into a Zen like ambiance and makes you enjoy the refreshing feeling a bath can do. The pretty bathroom vanity my Mom put up inside was perfect since it contained all the soaps or moisturizers I need to perk up a bad mood that day. I woke up in the wrong side of bed I guess but I was feeling a little better after that.

I know there are people already getting sick from the heat and I would not want to be the next casualty. I am so glad I tried it out and I'm planning to make it a regular thing if everything falls into plan soon. I have some products I could use from a contest I won a couple of weeks ago and I know it would make a better regimen if I had this done regularly. I love it!

Walking On Sunshine At Night

Well I think I'm a little happy today because I saw some friends again in Facebook. I like the things we did in college and it was again a time of nostalgia and reminiscing. It's pretty descent! i did not put any photos that would be detrimental to their professional careers LOL.

I was quite amused when I was scanning the old photos this morning. Some of them included me with long hair so imagine how funny that would look if I got it public haha.

I was asked by my peer to have something bought through Amazon this evening. I saw the chance to buy a 35mm lens for my cam and it would probably cost cheaper if I got it there. Actually seeing the checkout counter it is almost half. I just don't know the tax and the delivery cost but it seems it can qualify to be free since it is above 25 dollars. Hmmm... this is making me think about what to buy now heheh... will I buy the UV filter also? It says it costs around 10 dollars but I think filters cost cheaper here.

GAS... gadget acquisition syndrome I know! But hey if its going to cost smaller than what I can buy here in the Philippines it's a smart thing to do! =)

In the meantime to make you guys happy try and listen to the video I posted with this one and you'll remember some happy times even at night.... the time when you are just plainly happy and walking on sunshine! =)

Seal it up!

I am a self confessed gadget freak and just like the rest of my pals who are also photographers; this is the time where we need to be extra careful with our stuff. Digital cameras like my small IXUS are very hard to clean; and is very delicate as far as the weather is concerned. If you get it a little wet and it could get the circuits shorted in no time! That would really be expensive to get fixed and you are not even sure if they can because spare parts are scarce on this side of the globe. Good thing there are i-Seal Waterproof Pouches and other remedies that we can get to protect them from the harsh weather or elements that could easily damage our gear. Whoever invented it must have been thinking right because he knows how important weatherproofing and waterproofing is. I never thought that it was even possible to have my camera underwater but seeing the video makes me think otherwise. This is just awesome and I hope I could get this one here for my IPHONE!

I will continue to make videos of my journey soon since I plan to go all out on my vacations. I haven't tried it personally but it looks very promising for a concept I am planning to implement soon on my site (Underwater Video BLOGGING perhaps?!). If you are looking for a solution, you know what to get now!

JEJEMON

Okay. So here comes the JEJEMON. Filipinos have become so inventive with language that the normal textspeak now became an evolution of the jologs lifestyle, it has now become JEJEMON. There are a lot of legends how this all started but if you think about it its all just but a claim they know where it started... its all urban legend. Even the so called JEJEBUSTERS are in the news and do you even take time to understand how these guys work?! I thought so... its time consuming and it doesn't look that appealing. So why waste time?!

I'm really sorry I even made a post about this but with or without JEJEMON it still is the topic that people are looking for. According to the search terms in Yahoo this is number one so I'm not really going to even justify how it did capture all our attention at this particular time. Everyone is looking for its meaning and someway somehow we all waste our time on things that do not even count as real subjects such as these. I wouldn't blame you, you have to still go over these things in your lifetime. I mean hey, even a big network news channel did it so why don't we! =)

I can see its Hot!

I just heard over the news that we had the hottest day registered today in Manila. It is a whopping 38.7 degrees Celsius and there have been reports of people dying from sun stroke because of the heat. Unfortunately I do not have anything to protect my eyes from the bright blinding sun. It is also advisable to have sun glasses that deflect UV rays that damage delicate parts of the eye. I would really love to also avoid having cancer since there are studies that directly looking at the sun and the damages associate with it can also cause this. I have tried numerous times to get one myself but cheap ones here in Manila cost a lot and quality wise you would not really be impressed.



Good thing there are on line stores that sell cheaper ones like ZENNI Optical. The elimination of the middle man made everything more affordable and if you see how much that would benefit people who need prescription and fashionable eyeglasses, it wouldn't be as close as you may have estimated it would be. Have you seen designer grade ones for 8 dollars? How about high quality frames that would sell less than 10 dollars?! There are a lot of places where you can source this but only a few can match the prices these on line stores have. It's the best buy you can ever have for a pair of spectacles.
