Mylot: Getting Paid

My search for online earning started a year ago. It all started out of curiousity that ended up with much desire to earn more. It was a bit difficult for me at first how to go through with it. I had no idea how where to start as I didn't know what site really pays. It also took me longer to learn how to register with those paying sites as the process seem complicated to me. I was not even aware of what "http://" or "url" meant. After "experimenting" on the different paid blogging sites and PTCs, I came to realize that not all those who claim to be paying sites do pay. I just finally settled with MYLOT. For those who wish to join MYLOT, just click THIS. Once you have registered or signed up for MYLOT, send me a private message or leave a comment here for I will be guiding you how to earn fast. I will guarantee to help you make your earnings increase faster.

Yummy Lechon

Note: I don't know who put that knife and fork on the lechon, I wasn't aware of it when I took the photo. LOL
Lechon is an all-time Pinoy favorite. It always takes the "centerstage" in any banquet. A gathering is not complete without lechon. Once the lechon is served on the table, the cholesterol, LDL, HDL, highblood, diabetes, arthritis, and all other illnesses are forgotten. This is the most-tempting food that even those who are prohibited (by their doctors ) from eating anything oily or fatty always get a bite. Yummy. . . . Yummmyyyyyyyyyy lechon!

Wildflower: My Favorite Song

I always loved this song since the day I heard it and I don't understand why I really love this song. When me and my husband were just in our dating stage, I once asked him to sing this song and I came to appreciate it more. It's his rendition that makes my heart ______________ (indescribable feeling!). Since then, I always ask my husband to sing this song for me and it brings me back good old memories (especially the days when we not yet married. Here's the lyrics of that song.

WILDFLOWER

She's faced the hardest times you could imagine

And many times her eyes fought back the tears

And when her youthful world was about to fall in

Each time her slender shoulders

Bore the weight of all her fears

And a sorrow no one hears

Still rings in midnight silence in her ears

~ * ~ * ~

Let her cry, for she's a ladyLet her dream, for she's a child

Let the rain fall down upon her

She's a free and gentle flower growing wild

~ * ~ * ~

And if by chance I should hold her

Let me hold her for the time

But if allowed just one possession

I would pick her from the garden to be mine

~ * ~ * ~

Be careful how you touch her, for she'll awaken

And sleep's the only freedom that she knows

And when you walk into her eyes you won't believe

The way she's always payingFor a debt she never owes

And a silent wind still blows

That only she can hear and so she goes

~ * ~ * ~

Let her cry, for she's a lady

Let her dream, for she's a child

Let the rain fall down upon her

She's a free and gentle flower growing wild

~ * ~ * ~

Let her cry, for she's a lady

Let her dream, for she's a child

Let the rain fall down upon her

She's a free and gentle flower growing wild

She's a flower growing wild ...

Valentine's Day is also the birthday of my dear father. Today is his 70th birthday and it's quite a celebration. For a long time, my father never had big celebrations for his birthday. His past birthdays were mostly spent with the family. This year's birthday celebration is different and special. It's a thanksgiving for his his dear life since my father has been in bed (bedridden) for more than two years now. My siblings and I are thankful to our Almighty that he is given another year of his life. Happy birthday Tatay.

It's cool. . . it's fun . . it's informative. . . I love being asked and I love to ask. . .

New Year, New Look

New year, new look. That's what I did at the very start of 2009. I bought some new things for my personal necessities like toothbrush, towel, bag, wallet, cellphone holder. I also changed my hairstyle - from long hair to short hair. I also did re-arranged the furnitures at home and changed our curtains and pillow cases which I personally have sewn. it took me a week to finish the curtains.

It's my birthday today

It's my 38th birthday today. The cake in the picture isn't my birthday cake. It was the birthday cake of my daughter who had her 3th birthday last December 11, 2008. For the past many years, I always had parties ( small or big depending on who came)during my birthday but this year is quite different. I just had a lunch date with my husband and will have a simple dinner with my family at home. Happy birthday to me!
