drifting away

a time for us.........
thats the stake we have to give away......
for a better life.....?
or its the loss that we have to accept........
for a good life.......?
why do you have to go home...........?
if we don't even feel you around.....?
why do you have to try even we if we know you are just trying it hard .....?
a minute of laughter..........endless hour of silence.........?
quality time spent isnt enough to fill in lost chances...........
but do we have a choice.........?
they are taking you away from us..........
drifting away to your world......your lost world that you have been trying to find.........
your lost childhood dreams that you are trying to rebuild.............
your emptiness that you are trying to complete...........
but what about us?????
do you think we have to take it all? risk it all ? endure all?
are we losing you while you complete your self and whole soul?????/
we need you.............do you still need us?

go home with us,Dad....

A Life at the Rasa Sentosa Resort In Singapore

Last June 2 to 6, 2008, my husband had an opportunity to go to the wonderful country of Singapore. He was sent by his company for a training with his regional counterparts. His first trip to Singapore was made more memorable by his stay at one of premier resorts in Singapore which is the Rasa Sentosa Resort. The Rasa Sentosa Resort is situated within the Sentosa Island which is one of premier tourist spots in Singapore. Some of the popular tourists spots within the Rasa Sentosa Island is the world famous Underwater World, Palawan beach and the Dolphin Lagoon.

The Rasa Sentosa Resort has some amenities that would definitely make someone's stay indeed worthwhile. Some of these amenities include the beach and several swimming pools. They also provide function rooms, gym facilities and a relaxing spa. They also have several restaurants that would satisfy anyone's taste buds. They serve different types of food from Western to Oriental foods. A single day stay at the resort entitles the tourist for a free breakfast at their restaurant. A single day stay at the resort would cost you around SD 280. What makes the Rasa Sentosa Resort more attracting is that it is just situated beside the Underwaterworld. If you want to explore the beauty of Singapore

It is very easy to get to the Rasa Sentosa Resort. From the airport, you have several options to go to the resort. You can get there using a taxi cab that would cost you around SD25. You dont need to worry about the driver because majority of the drivers are very courteous and they speak in English. You dont need to worry about the taxi meter as well because they provide receipts. You could also use the MRT which would cost you around $5 using the green line and purple line to get to Harbour Front Center. From the Harbour Front Center, you have three options to go the resort. You can ride the cable car, the free shuttle service and the train. The train and the cable car is not advisable because it would cost you a some Singaporean Dollars (SD). It is good though to explore the beauty of Singapore from above (using the cable car). They provide free shuttle service from the Harbour Front Center up to 11:40 pm in the evening. This is advantageous to those who stay out late.

The resort aims to ensure that you would go back to Singapore and stay at their resort. I hope I would be able to join my husband on his next visit to Singapore. Based on his stories, indeed the Rasa Sentosa Resort is one of the best places to stay in Singapore.

Quality Time With My Family

Last July 2008, our family had a unique time at the zoo. Its our opportunity for us to spend quality time with my daughter and my husband. My husband has always been very busy with his present job and I myself had a very hectic week at my office. My daughter had always been inclined with elephants and monkeys so it is her opportunity to see them up close and personal.

Upon entering the zoo, we immediately took some pictures. First stop is the ever favorite elephant. Its time to bid farewell to my daughter's image of an elephant in Barney's CD. You can really see the delight and amazement on her eyes. The elephant was just a few meters away. The elephant was quite impatient because he is very hungry. My daughter even had the opportunity to ride on top of an elephant. With an elephant statue of course

Our next stop is the area of the very serious Iguana. It is quite hard to describe it to my daughter since she has not seen an iguana. I am not even sure if she can pronounce the word. As of now, she recognizes it as a big lizard. Makes sense to me.

We had an opportunity to see the other animals such as the monkeys, alligators, the very lazy hippo and tigers. It took us a while before we were able to see the tigers since they stay inside their cages. The hippopotamus stayed under the water the whole time we were at the zoo so we were not able take a picture. We were also able to see some eagles and ostrich

At the end of the day, we got tired walking around the zoo. We lost some weight and some body liquid but what we can never replace is the happiness we brought to our daughter. We are looking forward to the next trip that we will have.

renewing moments

i had a great weekend.tiring but fulfilling.last saturday my hubby and I had a date at moa for and advance bday gift for me.we set the date because we felt we are gradually losing each other for our job and marital obligations.we decided to talk it over dinner.
we met at the skating rink and to my surprise,there were a lot of people.it was a grand sale day at the mall.tons and tons of people rushed to the mall to avail at this rare chance for a cheap buy.neways,i promised not to get carried away by the sale because we were there for a dinner not for the sale!
well, we succeeded in our plan.we dined at sbarro with my fave stromboli and zitti.yummy but i was happier than the food because we talked our differences,faults and plans together.we laid out our plans and more plans.we realized it isnt really easy being parents and "strugglers".i thank the Lord coz the new job of my husband gives him a lot more confidence and drive for life coz, as we all know,life's not a box of chocolates,after all.we all have chances but few are given the privilege.
we finished relieved ,renewed and stronger.
we went around like newly weds and little did we realized ,we became one of those "rare opportunists".hehehe.
we found ourselves at the men's section looking for cheapest long sleeve polos for my hubby's new job.and voila! we were so lucky to have found the gems...hehe..dansen long sleeve polos at Ph150 each with all the sizes and colors,good quality and at 100% cotton material. because its a rare chance, we purchased 1 wine colored,pastel blue green,brown,pink,blue and white with blue stripes.imagine having 5 polos at less a thousand pesoses?!this is rare!
and to add more,we can reimburse our purchases from their clothing allowance.
well, nice night indeed.
we ended the night buying donuts(chelsea calls it danots) for my baby at 10 pesos each from go nuts donuts.
thats it.

for my baby

dear chelsea,

i may not be the best mom in the world but i am doing everything i can.
to make you happy...
to give you good life...
to fill your world with love...
to be not me....

i love you...

ma

burned out!

i am burned out.super stressed out.
i feel like a jello.gosh! i'm a battered earthling.
pressures too much to bear.
and worst..i am alone.
why cant people understand me?
why cant they pity me?
all i have is a speck of light losing its glow...
i love everyone in me.i dont want to hurt them in anyway.
i will do anything as long as i can.
i'll bear all the burdens for love.
silence is my remedy.but its hard and it hurts.
but in the end....it shall pass....

life sucks...anyway...
