a new superfood in town


I totally blush whenever the word DIET comes up. silly me, I am always guilty about it. okay, now who doesn't? believe me, dieting is hard to control especially when you're in no motivation, that will suck big time. I've done everything in the book and oh by golly I've never been succesful at all. I think I just need a lot of exercise and cut down on my food intake. I've done it before and I can do it again. I came across this new product called Leptovox, has anyone here know anything about this diet pill? Well, if you are struggling with weight loss you can always drop by getdietsolutions.com for great and trusting reviews on certain diet products. before you try anything, always be sure to check in with your doctor first to see if it's right for you.

house hunting


What a title, huh? Well, let's start with waking up early in the morning to drop off hubby at work. Came back home and fed Nate some breakfast, took him to school and just before I got home the hubbykins called and asked me to fetch him, he was still sick (almost a week now). my husband works so hard from 2am to 2:30 pm almost every single day. We do break down once in awhile. hubby was a tad bit irritable, I may say. I just tried my best to comfort and understand him, patience is a virture like they always say.

My mother-in-law was busy on the internet searching for foreclosure homes in our area this morning. We got so excited because she found a 2 bedroom, 2 bath that was around $200 something thousand and it was a good price, condo's 2 bedroom 2 baths here in Hawaii price ranges from 300,000 up. a one bedroom costs 200,000. When my MIL calculated how much the down payment would be we would end up paying $1,247 for mortgage. right now, we're paying $1,250 for a 1 bedroom 1 bath condo unit with one parking space. it includes all utilities like water and electricity, a/c, washer and dryer, basic cable, refrigerator, dishwasher, oven range, 3 pools, recreation area, and a trash chute. unfortunately, when she was talking to the realtor, they had informed her that there was already an offer. crap. :(

We love it here so much because it's so convenient, it's close to everything like the airport (where hubby works) which is just a 10 minute drive and my work - also a 10 minute drive... very convenient. We've lived here since 2004, we started out in a studio where we paid $750 a month. I am just praying so hard right now that hopefully we can find a 2 bedroom right here in our building. It's a secured place. We saw a few units before and it was pretty good. but back then the prices were pretty high. my MIL is just concerned with us because she's worried that rental prices might skyrocket and we'll have to deal with it. hubby's not ready to buy a house just yet. We'll keep on looking hoping we could score a jackpot someday while the prices are still low.

We went to see a condo unit just a mile from our home. me and my MIL left the car and walked instead so we can burn out the fried pork and tofu we had ate that afternoon. We met up with the realtor, she was filipina. she had a pleasant personality and she was very nice, too. She showed us the unit. the rooms are pretty small, the living room was also small, there was a lanai, a pool outside, too. The only thing I like about it is it's only on the 2nd floor, and plus I loved the granite kitchen countertop. the lowdown is... it doesn't have any washer or dryer! so, the realtor promises us she will give us listings based on our criteria. house hunting can be so tiring. :( we're hoping we could buy a starter home soon. I think it's way better than paying rent, at least the unit is yours, right? (sigh)

material handling


Before we run any business, we have to make sure we have the proper equipments available. Now, there are a lot of stores out there where you can get your supplies at like this online store called reidsupply.com, It's a successful supply company ever since 1948, They have been a global industrial parts supplier for over 60 years, can you imagine that? It's a pretty long time and I guess when you need supplies like for material handling you know where to go.

Kitty's in hybernation


Hello! I am still alive, people! I am blogging thru my phone at the moment. I just wanted to let you all know that I am still here. I felt guilty for neglecting my blog. For 3 whole weeks, yikes. My apologies. This blog does not have a life anymore! I am soooo drained from the online life. I needed to get away from it once in awhile. I twit sometimes, too but sometimes it can also be tiring updating all the time. I miss the days when I can just do my thing in one corner and be happy. Well, I blame my work for this. Everytime I come to work, I feel so crabby and exhausted. I am asleep most of the time. Luckily my MIL is always there to give a helping hand. She leaves on the 15th of feb. Our uncle isn't back yet from the mainland. Not sure if he'll ever come back though. Well, hope you guys have a great week ahead! Mahalo nui loa for all the visits you all know who you are. Thanks for sticking up with me at all times. Xoxo

a scent with bite


Okay, it's been a month or so after I've read the whole Twilight saga and I am proud to say that my obsessiveness towards it had gone down (thank God), it's really funny how you can call it the twilight fever :P so anyways, I came across a twilight inspired perfume at ET online. It looks lovely :) but I wonder if it smells nice though?



anyhoo, back to the movie and the book. I was searching for blogs who hated Twilight and I came across a lot, of course. They listed a lot of flaws that was in the movie and in the book (not surprised) there will always be flaws no matter what. and there will always be haters no matter what. I wanted to get rid of my obsessiveness to the book as well as the movie (I'll still buy the dvd though) I tried finding negative comments about it and it actually worked a lil bit, When I bought the DVD of Shia Labeouf's Eagle Eye my mind completely forgot Twilight for a few days. I'm proud to say I'm done with it. although I know when the next movie comes out I'll be sure as heck to be over ga-ga with it. depends though on how they make it. I'm a kid at heart and I love cheesy romantic movies, so sue me! I just like the feeling of falling in love, you know...

before I hit the sack I'd like to extend my greetings and my heartwarming thank you's to all the friends who never gets tired of reading my posts, you may not leave a tag or comment but base on mybloglog, I will know the people who dropped by for sure. I know inspite of my lack of presence in this blog world, I know my friends are still there. I'm kinda getting tired of blogging, too. sad, I know. I am thinking of quitting... but with the little extra bread coming in, I can't really give up now.

I guess I'm just tired. exhausted. burned. I am soooo out of shape, I need exercise. I need to get away from the net as much as possible, focus on myself for once. but before I do that - I need to revamp the site first, so I promise myself on my days off I need to focus on fixing some things around the site like delete broken links, give it a facial lift, the list goes on. organize my scrap gallery as well, I want to make a photobook that contains all my scrap LO's. It's now 1:12 am here and I need to get some sleep coz I have to get up at 7:30 am for work. goodnight to all!

video cards


I am not really good sharing my knowledge about electronics, seriously - I'm not the person for that, my husbands gets the award for tinkering most of our appliances here in our home. I think the last time I heard about video cards was around a few years ago when my husband and my brother were talking about the old playstation or something. do you need video cards? buy.com has it all, check it out yourself because they have the best selections with unbeatable prices if you may ask me. choose within their top brands and compare, but I guess you look no further because no one beats buy.com, that's for sure. maybe I'll tell my husband about this one, he'll probably enjoy browsing around this site.

being lost, not anymore


For your information, we don't have GPS in our van, I am hoping maybe someday we should I just don't think it's necessary for us to have one since Hawaii is not that big. We only rely on my phone's GPS, that's about it. When you live in the mainland for example, then I think it would be great to have one since you'll be doing a lot of road trips, I know I'd be so excited for long driving with family and friends, with your own little portable GPS, you won't get lost on the way and you will always make it on time with one of those business trips of yours. purchase one now at buy.com and look, it's free shipping!
