>Right now I am chatting with my mom, I am so happy because i am able to see my grandparents again, they are now in our house in cebu. Its really a wonderful feeling seeing them on the webcam and talking to them at the YM. I really miss my family back home, its been 2 years and 1 month now that i havent seen them in person. How I wish that me and my husband can visit them soon, but i know that wont happen now because we have a lot of problems right now especially with our financial.
Hahay life I know its not easy to be away from our family but this is the life i chose so I have to get use to it, beside my husband is always with me. But tell you what there is no place like home gyud.

>I said to my self last week that after the holidays I am going to start my exercise again because I have really gotten fat and sassy over the holidays, ***wink*** actually that was my husband says. I have been gaining weight since Thanksgiving. All my clothes have gotten too small for me that decided me to buy a new one with extra size. I was used to being thin and only weighing 95 pounds, but now I know I am over 100 pounds, thanks to the delicious food that I ate over the holidays. Plus I have not gotten any exercise because of the weather is too cold for me to do my walking. I really don’t mind gaining weight but my problem is every part of my body is getting bigger especially my belly and I can no longer wear my hanging blouse because I am to shy of my belly that will looks like I’m 3 months pregnant.

>My husband and I went to visit my parents in-law, we stayed there for an hour then hubby asked me if I was ready to go home, because he wanted to be home early because he doesn’t like to miss his football. I said yes too because i have to do some of my pending tasked online, and also i wanted to prepare our dinner early tonight because my sister and I will be going to bring Charles to the park and we are going to meet Edna the Filipina woman who lives in Shreveport , we meet her on friendster and we didn’t know that she used to go to the park that is only a few blocks away from our place.

>My sister went for a walk this morning and she also visited the filipina woman which I never knew that we have a filipina neighbor just a few blacks away from our house. My sister met her last halloween when they went trick or treating. My sister brought her here to our house and introduced me to her, it seems the lady is so nice and very talkative too. She has been here in the US for 30 years already. she told us that we can visit her anytime we want to. I feel so happy coz i never thought before that only Me and my sister is the only filipino here in our place. But i was wrong because the lady also told us that she also meet another pinay close to their place. This is really great because were not alone on this place and we find some pinay friends already. Hmmm my sister is really good because she meets a lot of pinay friends anywhere here in bossier city even though shes been here for a few months, unlike me never meet anyone.

>Hi guy! How are you all doing today? Im a bit emotional here right now, i couldnt understand myself while listening to music im crying at the same time thingking of my mom. I miss her terribly but before when i was with her i always want to be away from her and i always take her for granted. And now here i am missing her so much. I chatted with her this morning but not too much it was very late there in PI when i talked to her. i was not able to go online early coz sis and i went out to have walk. I am glad to know that my mom fiancee petitions are been approved so hoping by october or november she will recieve the k packet…. and soon if GOD’S will she will be here with us.

>My music type is a classical, yup that is me i love this type of music because it is really romantic and it makes sooths you and relaxes you so much, if you just sit back and listen to every note that is played. actually i like most types of music especially the music with good lyrics that really mean something in your life and makes you cry.

>Today my sister cooked budbod I am really glad because it has been a while since i have eaten budbod, Imagine i have been here in the US for for 2 years now and I really miss a lot of the Filipino foods especially budbod and utan bisaya. I am thankful that my sister decided to make budbod because i don’t know how to cook it. I really like it so much but it wasn’t sweet enough for me but i can’t complain because i didn’t have to prepare it. So guys i will give you a share of the budbod. So enjoy ahehehee

>Your Stress Level is: 43%
You are somewhat prone to stress, especially when life gets hard. When things are good, you resist stressing over little problems. But when things are difficult, you tend to freak out and find it hard to calm down.

I am here again in my daily routine, waking up so early this morning, wanted to sleep longer but i kept on thinking that there might be opps in ppp alreadym so i decided to get up and went to my computer. Anyway i visited reticheilas bravejournal earlier i found this blogthing i decided to grab it, Coz i am curios about how stressed i am. I cant believe that my stress level is 43%, Well yea i guess its true because i worry to much just about everything even though there is nothing to worry about. My husband said i am in too much of a hurrry for no reason
