Majestic Beauty

This is our majestic beauty tree. I posted a close-up of its flowers last week and today, I took this picture of it with some of its flowers in bloom. From what I have been reading, at its peak, this tree will be covered in flowers that you could barely see its leaves. Aside from being pretty, the flowers also have this nice mild smell.

Anyway, I took a few pictures of the tree alone and some pictures where the little one and I posed beside it [feeling tourist...LOL]. I would have posted my picture with tree here but when I saw how big I am, I decided not to. Yep, I think I'm obsessing about my weight already. I'm afraid that this obsession might even lead me to try a weight loss diet in the near future. But then again, I don't really believe I need to do that...yet. Okay..back to the treadmill I go!

Unused Keyboard

When the little one was about 8 she asked 'Santa' for a keyboard for Christmas. It was one of the many items in her list and she knew that not all in her list will be fulfilled. Still, we, I mean Santa brought her a keyboard. Since I'm usually the one in-charge of looking for the items in her list, I started by checking out http://www.musiciansfriend.com/ since they have anything and everything music related. I'm not sure where we got the keyboard from but she was ecstatic and was excited to play it for a good couple of days. Fast forward to present time, the keyboard is still practically brand new. It's stashed in the corner of her closet for the last 6 years. But it seems it's not forgotten yet because she just brought it up in one of our conversations over the weekend. So who knows? Maybe she's dust it off and start learning on how to play it. I hope....

S--L--O--W!!!

I'm talking about our little one! She moves sooooo sllllooooowwww in the morning. I get tired just waiting for her to finish her morning rituals. Right now she's there and she's been there for ages.

Believe it or not, it takes her approximately 30 minutes to finish her business in the bathroom. She only does 3 things there - pee, brush her teeth and change her clothes! Just three! I still do the combing of her hair because it's really long. She can't manage it yet. Here's a shot of her hair from the back...see how long it is?? I can only imagine if she has to comb it herself. She'll probably be in the bathroom the whole day.

Drafts, Etc....

It's been a while since I last posted. I must say it's not because of the lack in attempts because I have several drafts in my folder to dispute that. The drafts though are all unfinished. Why? It's either I got disrupted by work or I just couldn't finish it one way or another. But I'm here now.

So what had happened since my last post? Not much actually. I've been trying to keep myself occupied with work mostly but I still get a bit bored most days. It used to be that surfing online would keep my entertained I don't know why but I feel like I need to go on a vacation...even if we just came back from a month-long vacation a couple months ago. I guess stress is getting into me somehow that's why I want to have a get-away. I actually miss home. I don't know what triggered it but it started a couple of weeks ago. The hundreds [maybe a thousand plus] pictures we took when we were there a few months ago are still sitting in my picture folder and I have j…
