New Year, New Goals....

It was a busy, tiring, and fun holiday for me thus the long silence in my blog. I'll share what has happened the past two weeks in my succeeding posts.

Since its the start of the year and its my first post for 2008, what better way to start it is by setting my goals for the year.

1. Quit Smoking
2. Cook more often (started it right by cooking for hubby yesterday :))
3. Exercise at least 3 times a week
4. Fix the House
5. Set-up a new business
6. Eat sweets at most twice a week - major good luck to me :(
   
7. Eat more veggies
8. Stop drinking coffee and soft drinks
9. Supervise my household helpers regularly
10. Shop only twice a month - hmmm, why did I include this????

On hindsight, I think I've set up a tall order for me. Well, I have this blog to keep me in check.

I do hope that I'll be able to achieve my 10 goals for the year. Its a rough start but I think I'll be able to achieve it :)

Greetings!!!

Merry Christmas to you all!!!!

Have a pleasant time with your love ones this Christmas :)

I Hate Traffic

I know, traffic really worsens during the Holidays but it really becomes more unbearable every year. Trying to analyze what's causing it is a futile effort.

Coming from the house, I decided to drop by my store at Shaw before proceeding to Rockwell to meet up with my friend. Lo and behold or I was just unusually unlucky, it took me almost 2 hours to reach my store. Imagine that!!!! Normally, it would only take me 15 minutes or at most 30 minutes to reach my store not 2 hours!!!

I am just thankful that I have a driver and I didn't have to endure that. Nevertheless, I was in a bad mood and I didn't want to go to Rockwell anymore because it might take me another 2 hours to get there.

So my friend and I decided to meet up at Serendra instead. Due to the horrible traffic I encountered, I was no longer in the mood to shop. I was actually dreading my travel time from Serendra to my house.

I was right, my normal travel time of 20 minutes was prolonged to an hour. Imagine, I spent more time in the car than making chika with my friend!!!!

Attention MMDA, will we ever resolve our traffic problems????

Oh So Yummy......

I have a new friend who I met through my other blog. She dropped by the house early this morning to give me the cupcakes that she baked herself.

My diet for today went berserk because it was just so yummy.

Even if its straight from the ref would you believe that it's still moist!!!! Unlike the regular cupcakes that you buy around wherein you need to thaw it a bit to make sure that its a bit moist when you bite into it. And the chocolate is so heavenly, its not too sweet at all even if its double chocolate (icing and cake). She gave me 8 cupcakes and as of 11 pm, only 3 cupcakes are left. Yes, I consumed 5 of it starting at 2 pm.

Thanks a lot Emily :)

I'm just crazy over anything chocolate.

Diet, diet, diet its just impossible during the holidays....
