I ♥ CA2020!

Oh I love this business community. Do you know that Roy and I met through CA? CA stands for Create Abundance. I was there when it was born and I always make it a point to be present in all its anniversary celebrations because being with CA marks the birth of some ordinary person finding an entrepreneurial home, a space for greatness, contribution and ultimately a space for love (for self, family, community and country.) I like seeing the Community grow, losing some members along the way and gaining better ones as it matures.

Last February 19, we celebrated our 4th anniversary with the kids from Nayon ng Kabataan in Mandaluyong. It was our 3rd time to celebrate through a feeding program and I must say that we are getting better at it with a structured program and more exciting activities.


my first time to play Hunter, Rabbit, Wall
pina-level up na bato-bato pik!
face painting, paint me a picture, action song led by Ritz

LSS from Jervis:  ♪ I love you forever... ♫
Story-telling with song number!
Meals prepared using Vitameal
It's a product developed by Pharmanex for its Nourish the Children initiative
In one of our feeding programs, we included Vitameal sa Spaghetti. Sarap!

making the kids' dreambooks!

Of course, bonding is always part of our activities. After spending time with the kids, we all went to Makati for dinner and more games. We even had to deliver pick up lines before we can pick up our food. Let me share my favorites for the night. 
Boy 1: Chicharon ka ba?
Boy 2: Bakit?
Boy 1: Ang ingay mo kasi pag kinakain kita.
Girl: Pearl Milk Tea ka ba?
Boy: Bakit?
Girl: Ang sarap kasi sipsipin ng balls mo e.
And we all went home with sweet and calorific treats, thanks to our gratitude tradition. We all said "Thank you" to each other while giving chocolates/ candies/ chichirya/ perfume samplers. I suggested that we give fruit next time para healthy. Tig-iisang ubas na ang ipapamigay 'pag ganon ang nangyari.


Cheers to more anniversaries and more success, CA2020!

Mommy Mondays: German Measles

Image
Motherhood isn't just about measles, you know. But hey, here I am with my second Mommy Mondays post talking about measles. Again. It was very challenging to supposedly be "running" a household and be sick at the same time. Our household is pretty much on auto-pilot mode so I have to thank Roy and Amymy (our yaya since October 26, 2010) for that. Back to my german measles. I think we got the virus at the FEU hospital when Momsy was confined last May 30. We pertaining to me and my ate who had it days before me. A run-through of events: May 30 - June 2: Momsy's confinement ergo, pagod, puyat and stress = mababang resistensya . June 3 - June 6 in the afternoon: Life goes on June 6 late afternoon: I started feeling the chills. My chest felt heavy and I just wanted to go home. June 7 - June 10: on and off fever, joint pains I was still able to accompany my mom for her check up last June 10 then I spoke with my sister over the phone and she told me to watch out for a

Mommy Mondays: Roseola aka Tigdas Hangin

Image
Here's more of a public service post. lol.  I realized that I should be sharing more mommy posts for future reference and of course to add value to fellow mommies out there. And what could be more fitting than to label it with "Mommy Mondays?" Nagpapaka-creative! For today, allow me to share my first encounter with Roseola or Tigdas Hangin . Last Wednesday, Isay had fever. As you may know, fever in itself is not an illness, it's a sign that our body is fighting some form of infection. So, Amymy (our kasambahay) thought that it's because of Isay's pagngingipin. We started to worry when the fever lasted for another 2 days na walang ubo or sipon (dito kami sanay e, hehe.) Isay was still very playful although she lost her appetite and was extra clingy. On the fourth day, wala nang lagnat then rashes started to appear on Isay's face then to her arms and back. As of press time, meron na rin sa hita. Yesterday, we took her to Medical City and she was diagn

How I Lost 30 pounds: My Spartan Transformation Experience

Image
My primary reason for enrolling in the Spartan Transformation Program was business but then I realized, who am I kidding? Wouldn't it be great to bring back the "glory days" when I could wear nice-fitting clothes and have the energy of a college student? I also thought that it would be exciting to conceive again with a healthier body so the next step was to get me that package. Initial Doubts 1. We didn't have the extra money for the package. 2. Will this work for ME?? The Kristine who loves to eat sweets and refined carbs + drink Kopiko with them each time?  No one really saves up for weight loss. Aminin, we always have that thinking that somehow, we can get away with leading an unhealthy lifestyle AND somehow lose weight when the time is right. So we work hard, "reward" ourselves with what we earn on unhealthy habits then when sickness happens, we use our hard-earned money to get better, only to return to our old ways. So for me, it was mo
