Along Came Tomy

I was in the middle of writing about my new-found hobby earlier last week when somebody interrupted my flow of thought. Oh, well.So what’s new? Well, I am now into collecting toy trucks. Whoa. (grin) But yes, aside from my other collections, namely: journals, notebooks, pens, elephant figurines, soda cans, shot glasses, and fast food toys, I am now into toy trucks. It all started when one of my officemates came to work one morning and brought along...

I Am Angry. Very.

Yes I am. Angry. Though my mother would say, when weren’t you? Yeah, right. But today, right now, I am just very, very angry.Someone has been stalking me for the last four or five days. No, not stalking, for that is only a mild description of what this person does. This is harassment in its purest form. It all started with cutesy text messages, inspirational quotes, and jokes, all of which I chose to ignore. I have never ever replied to those types of messages. I do not reply to people who have the habit of hiding their hideous plans behind the...

Glasses Help Me Read More... Books!

As part of my new list of 2008 ‘realistic’ resolutions, I have decided to strictly read a book a month. Yup, that’s the minimum. For such a busy person like I am, reading a book has become more tedious, if not dreaded task. With my eyes getting more and more strained during the day, the need for prescription glasses is more pressing. But whoa. I don’t want to wear those thick, ‘grannie’ glasses. (*wink*) Not yet. Naturally, I want something stylish...

The Lion Roars at The Archer!

I've been given an award! Neat!Aloi, my college blockmate (and my CommII seatmate) gave me this award late last year and I never had the chance to 'roar' back. (*grin*)This is my first online award, and I feel proud to know that my little blog is being mentioned in a popular blog, and that there is great possibility that more people will pass by to read what the Archer is ranting about, be it about my planners, my notebooks and pens, or my red Chucks....

My New Year Babies

I recently posted an entry showing photos of my new Starbucks 2008 planner. I actually did not write anything to describe the planner, except say “Here are some photos of my New Year baby...” Days after I posted that entry, a friend showed me her new Jollibee planner which prompted me to get one too. Well now, I got two planners that I oh-so love that I’d like to write about them as my first seriously written entry for 2008. (God, I’m really a sucker...

I'm A New Postie!

I started this blog in 2006, and I have always thought of finding ways to monetize it. I first considered placing ads, but earning through them is a little slow for me. Then I came across this blog advertising site through a friend's blog and found out that I will not only write on my preferred topics, I will also earn through my write-ups! And so without any more second thoughts, I signed up, wrote my first article and got my fee straight to my...

Sick at New Year's

I understand that this is a belated post, but what the heck. I just want to write about my sick New Year.It was a horrible New Year's eve for me. I was sick, weak, and unable to do anything for the New Year's eve celebration. I was so sad being sick at that time because it was my first New Year's eve at home after 7 long years... To think that I did most of the food preparations and cooking for our family's Noche Buena.It all started on Thursday, December 27 when I was out doing errands and I got soaked by the unexpected downpour. Heh. The following...
