The Ocean is my bestfriend. back in high school, after classes me and my friends would run off to the former military base back in our hometown and we would walk about a few miles just to get to the beachside where we sit down and relax and just stare at the beautiful sunset, The beach releases our stress from school. I do miss those days, I live in Hawaii and we're very close to the ocean, just minutes away but since we're always at work I don't get to do what I always loved. Someday I'd like for me and my family to try this Outer Banks rental from Carolinadesigns.com, it's absolutely wonderful. I browsed their vacation rentals and I am so in love with the ocean side properties, that's definitely going to go on my wishlist. I just hope someday we'll get to try it, you know choose the right place to just kick your shoes, sit back and relax and enjoy the breeze, perfect for releasing tension and just have a stress-free vacation with your family.

dreams are weird
I'm pretty sure you're thinking the same way about it. When I wake up after a dream, I try to jot everything down as soon as possible while it's still fresh, I usually have a pen and paper handy close to my bed. most dreams are really something else. sometimes it tells you the future, hints on what is expected the next few days or so.
like a few months ago I had a dream that my van broke down so I had to walk to get to work, but there was a few obstacles in the way like a lot of these construction workers were digging up lots of holes and a lot of dirt occupied the road so it was harder for me to walk. I kept on looking at my time, I was almost late but got to work just in the nick of time. My supervisor was there and she was pretty upset with me and told me "KIT, YOU'RE LATE!" and I couldn't remember anything after that.
When I went to work that very day I just found out some bad news... We counted the safe wrong that other night! so anyways, I told my friend about my dream and her eyes grew wider, she too HAD a dream (wow) and it went like this:
She came to work but there wasn't any lights on and nobody was there. It was pretty dark, she came in the counting room, to her surprise - there were lots of water inside the room. not only that, there were lots of bundles of bills scattered everywhere in the room, she tried to carry everything but she couldn't handle all of it, so what she did was she had put some bundles under her underwear (we cracked up from hearing this). And after telling each other's dreams and concluding how our dreams gave us a hint our other officemate was amazed with us, she commented on how both of us seems to have a strong ESP (extrasensory perception).
There were lots of other dreams that I have that was work related, most are based on our emotions. I love checking out dream dictionaries, I think I got this from my parents since they used to have a book and they would always talk about their dreams every morning. I just go to the internet :).
Now, around the evening of March 16, 2009 I had this really weird dream. Having this dream reminded me of my own version of an armageddon movie. I was somewhere downtown, I wasn't sure what I was doing at that time. Then I heard some news that there will be a meteor attack on earth. everybody panicked including me. I wanted to get my son from school and I also want to be with my husband. My car wouldn't start so I had to wait in line for a jeepney (jeepneys in hawaii? LOL) so anyways, the line was snake like so I had to think of some way to get to my family, the line was pretty long and I refused to stay in line. I tried my cellphone and I managed to talk to my husband but I got disconnected. from a distance, a first blast of fire went to the ground. then another. and another. I was so scared. I didn't know what to do. I knew I was about to die any minute, experiencing the end of day was pretty scary. Seeing the balls of fire falling down from the sky was really something else. I prayed for all of my loved ones, hoping they would all survive. after that I faced the sky, I could just feel the heat coming inside my skin. very painful, I could feel the skin from my neck moving, thinking I might just explode anytime. I closed my eyes. This is it, I thought. but as soon as I opened my eyes, The balls of fire falling down to earth was done. But the sky showed the outer space and I could see the moon now. the stars and all the planets were so near to each other and to earth as well, it was an amazing sight. but then earth started to move around so fast, and we could all feel that we were moving! staring up the sky with all the stars and planets earth was out of control and later it would stop. then it would go in circular motion once again, then it would stop. Then I heard the alarm clock, I was so thankful to be awake and ALIVE. then I prayed to God, and said thank you to him and it was just all a dream.
The next day, I think it was giving me a hint that I will be having an argument with a filipina at work who works in the admin. I don't know what hit her button that she was so mad at me. I won't elaborate on the details anymore since it's very personal. I was so angry at her but my co-worker told me to just pray for people like that, so I calmed down and cried a bit. I was so emotional, I had to get it out. the next day, my period came (oh goodness).
Sometimes I get the same dream all over again. do you guys have that, too? :)

for the love of scrapbooking...
Ohhh-kay! I did it again! and when I said "again", that means I went shopping for Scrapbooking goodies at Ben Franklin's. I don't know, all of a sudden my scrap mojo just came back, It's amazing. I am concentrating on making some more scrap projects for the home of course as well as buying fabric to make pillow cases for the throw pillows in the living room to beautify the sofa bed. So far this one is the first one I did in a long time.
I've always loved Scrapbooking eversince I was a young kid. I grew even fonder of scrapbooking when I had my first child. When I was pregnant back in 2002 I was always inspired to do stuff that involves crafty stuff from sewing, to cross stitching and putting together artsy stuff. :) right now, I'm still into scrapbooking, mainly digital since it's so easy to make. but in order to make one, you need to be inspired - because if you're not in the mood, most likely your layout will end up looking like crap. Everyday from doing housework to going to work, every moment is an inspiration. I scout for colorful and creative designs from just about anything, from fabrics and magazines to t shirts and shoes, just about anything. My family is the number one motivator to get the scrap mojo going. I'm planning on making a photobook of all the digital scraps that I've made (crosses fingers), so hoping that will pull through.
And last, but not the least...
It is a bit too short, but hey- I get haircuts once a year, so that's not a problem for me. besides, It feels great! It's so light I've managed to cut my time and get to work earlier than when I had long hair.
If you're looking for the comment button, I've decided to disable it since I rarely return comments anyway. read at your own risk, as I may say. :D the blogging world has changed a lot since I started. nowadays, people don't care much for the contents of the blog but mainly for the sake of having people visit and comment on their entries, It's like there's this competition going on. Sometimes when a person leaves a comment, it doesn't really mean anything. I ONLY return visits to people who give the time to comment on something purely relevant to my blog.
I'll blog whenever I want to blog and I'll return visits when I have the time. I Will be deleting links soon and start out fresh once again. hmmm, what else? Oh yeah, nowadays You will find me at my Flickr, Facebook and Twitter
feel free to add me! mahalo!
a professional clog
I'm a shoe buff, for real. but I'm not really a fan of clogs, well - actually it depends on the clogs, right. Like what you see at Footwearetc.com Some of the Clogs you see like the Dansko professional clog in black oiled leather, I think it's kind of similar with the shoes that I wore back in high school, I don't really wear these kind anymore, I'm more of a rubbershoes and strappy flat sandal kind of girl. Especially for work I usually run around pretty much so I guess professional type of people who work in offices are great in these. Check it out and see for yourself.
ceiling fan galore
I went to a friend's house a few weeks ago and I just adore her home, seriously It was just way too organized! Everytime I get a chance to visit a friend or a relative's home I just idolize their homes especially the fixtures around the house like for example the ceiling fans in one's home just create a great design and adds interest and elegance in a home. I was browsing this store called Lightingshowplace.com which was so wonderful because they have a lot of ceiling fans in variety of colors and styles where you can choose from. SO if you are renovating your home and maybe you are just planning to get rid of that boring old ceiling fan in your living room, kitchen or bedroom, you now know where to go.
