A chance to have your dream house

Thursday, June 5th, 2008

Everyone knows that if you want to be a homeowner but your budget is limited, your best bet would be foreclosure properties. In fact, that's how my friend from Illinois acquired their three bedroom house. They checked tons of properties from various free foreclosure listings until they found something that ...

To get away everyday

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

There was a post in newlywedsatwork about a mom who's obviously at her wits end. She resigned from her high paying job so they can move to the province because of her husband's work. Now she's on limited allowance and had to take care of two kids alone. Not so ...

A Printing House

Monday, June 2nd, 2008

Talked to my brother last Saturday and he's thinking of pursuing his printing business. He initially planned to do the operation in our house in Sampaloc but decided to rent a smaller place instead. He still needs help with the capital and asked me if I want to partner with ...

A House in Hawaii

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

I'm positive that almost everyone has Hawaii on their list of dream travels. Not me, though. I prefer to have my own house there. Ever since I saw the houses from this Hawaii real estate website, I'm just hooked. Who wouldn't want to wake up to this everyday? According to the ...

Oh Paris

Monday, May 12th, 2008

My number one dream travel is to visit Paris. It probably started when I was young and all I did was watch these sappy, romantic movies where the heroes usually end up meeting at the Eiffel tower. As I get older, I kept on having new reasons why I want ...

Chic and Modern

Monday, May 5th, 2008

Now this is something I see myself living in if I'm single and childless. It's ultra chic, huge and very contemporary. I could see myself hanging tons of cheap but modern paintings and who knows, a couple of my old works as well. The white spaces are just too fabulous ...

Somewhere over the rainbow

Thursday, April 3rd, 2008

A chat with a friend of mine last week made me think about my long-term plans. I love the Philippines, I really do. But the economy is getting weaker, no matter what the government say in their press releases, that I don't see a future for my little girl anymore. ...

My very own happy place

Saturday, March 22nd, 2008

I was browsing this Virginia Home Improvement Company when I came across their sunrooms. Look at the photo below to see what I'm talking about. This room is a Four Season Sunroom. When I get rich, I'd definitely want to have something like this in my dream house. It will be ...

On Dating Again

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

I found a site today that lets you compare dating sites. It may not sound useful for married people like me but I have so many single friends who are willing to do anything to find their match. It used to be so simple before when we were *AHERM* so ...

Tomorrow

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

Sandy and I were hanging out yesterday downstairs when I realized how many engraved plaques my mother-in-law have. At 60, she has achieved so much as a lawyer and it made me wonder if I will ever be as successful as her when I reach that age. It also made ...
