Yesterday, I attended an event for parent bloggers where we were presented 2 of the most creative toys that were recently introduced in the market – ZipBin and RainbowBrush. Just to give you an idea what RainbowBrush is. Here is a video clip of how to get started with these creative pens.

A month from now the hubby will  watch UFC 111 live stream online. I am married to a very sport minded man, that’s for sure. UFC might not be my favorite thing. In fact, when were still dating, I used to cringe whenever he watches these types of shows. But after of being together for more than a decade, these are just one of the things I would have to live with and accept.

So, I did not choose to brave the Bungee Fun attraction at Eastwood. I am too much of a coward like that. But what I was able to  do was cover comprehensively, each and every blogger participant’s bungee experience. Seeing all these shots just makes me want to consider trying it out. But from how my stomach churned just watching them last Friday, I am pretty sure I will still be all good at taking pictures next time. Unlike the hubby, I am not very adventurous.

Here are some pictures the hubby and I took from the Bungee Fun date in Eastwood.  First, the guidelines:

Who would have thought an attraction such as this will fit in what might as well be a packed place, Eastwood City already is.  It is located right smack across Pho Hoa, near Jack’s Loft and Dulcinea, which I think is very strategic.  People will just have to stop and watch such bungee fun.  This is exactly what happened when one girl went flipping and flopping in the air, with her crazy somersaults and fun air dancing.

Who would have known that after so many months (probably a year) of not being able to play basketball, he still has it? Well, I am just so proud and I just have to say it out loud that the hubby is the top scorer of last Saturday’s game of MaristAlumniBasketball.com. Go check the page and his name is right there. :-)

Airsoft Green Gas for Airsoft Gas Guns

When you look at the most popular options on the market, airsoft gas guns are some of the biggest sellers. And that makes good sense because the guns have plenty of benefits, including being affordable and fairly powerful. As you might imagine, they also need to have their gas containers replaced after you expend a specific number of shots. Most use a gas known as HFC134a, but you could sometimes opt for airsoft green gas instead.

Details of the UHC Green Gas

The best explanation is that the green gas airsoft gun is more powerful than the more traditional type of gas that is used. Usually, the gas is made from propane with silicone included and this combination can provide a boost to many of the guns on the market. Of course, you’ll have to pay a little extra for that boost but the cost may be worth the results. One point that is important to remember is that this type of gas is not more environmentally friendly than the other options. Some consumers make that mistake because of the “green” in its name.

marikina united football

After a couple of months of not being able to play soccer because of so many things on his plate, the hubby was able to join his team, Marikina United last night as they played against Lourdes highschool’s varsity team during a tune up game. Marikina United won: 5-4. Yey!

The hubby and I were married three years before we were blessed with a son. During those first years of married bliss one of the favorite things we enjoyed doing together is going to the spa. We hope to be able to try out the Spa Couples package from BlueWater Day Spa. It has been a while since we indulged in this type of royalty treatment. After having heard of countless BlueWater Day Spa recommendations, I just know it’s on top of our to have list.

Truth be told, working from home can be the most stressful of all jobs. First, I cannot really shut my child out, in the middle of work, when he asks for attention. I try my best to have him understand that mama is working, but it can be a challenge. I have learned to device ways to juggle the things I do from my work as a web content writer, to the toddler I have to take care of and teach, things that I do in between and back again to the endless cycle. One thing for sure, one has got to have strong intrinsic motivators to be able to do what I do.

This is why a spa will be a treat I would like to have every so often. A Vitalift (Flash Beauty Treatment) will also be a sweet indulgence. I am not much of a fan of invasive procedures, so this the one that I will ever go through when it comes to facials. I’m sure that will be review worthy that I will post live via my beauty blog – KikayCorner.net

Now that BlueWater Day Spa Capitol Hills branch is open, I will be the most thrilled to drag the hubs with me one of these days and just soak ourselves in treatments fit for a queen and her king.

The hubby is the most athletic 33 year old that I have ever come across with. He always feels sluggish and gets tired easily whenever he misses his workouts at Marikina Sports Park. There is just this need for him to go run miles. He comes back refreshed and energized. For that I admire him more.

Remember my quest to being healthier this 2009, which defines that I do my part of working out even via my ever reliable game console? I have quit for a month now. I just cannot get myself to go back to the exercising routine. With the schedule crammed up, there is just no way I could squeeze it in. I know it is so easy to find all the excuses in the world. Maybe I really have got to do some soul searching especially about this matter. I remember feeling so much better, physically, whenever I do my workouts. My back is starting to hurt again like before.

shoebaccaBut before that, I think I have got to pull the hubby again to get me a pair of running shoes. For some reason, whenever we go to sports depot, I just won’t find the pair that suits me, or atleast the one that I would really like to wear for some time. I think my tiny feet look awful when I try on bulky shoes. Read the rest of this entry »

“What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul?Ô

This is the message I sent to the universe at OperationImmortality.com which, according to the site will be archived in the Immortality Drive being sent into space in October, together with all other messages posted before the end of August this year.

I chose this motto, which you can check using my message ID which is 471, because this is the truth, uttered by a great man named Jesus, who claimed, both directly and indirectly, claimed to be immortal and to be God. He was tortured and killed for these claims but His resurrection backed His claims and the world was never the same again.

By His grace I try my best for this truth to be witnessed in my life. Having chosen a profession based on a calling and not on any other temporal reason I try to live this truth and encourage others to take a step back and look at their lives in light of this truth.

 

I encourage you to use the message ID above to check this motto out at OperationImmortality.com special campaign Operation Immortality: Leave your mark. Save Humanity.You can also try to leave your own message to the universe.

Yay! The hubby recently got a new domain for his football blog- http://www.footballvideosandpictures.com. This blog is his favorite among the handful of others that he maintains. He has around seven blogs, most of which utilize wordpress themes. Jeff is so much into the sport, that during the Euro2008, I would even catch him watching live stream via the net in the wee hours of the morning. He is so passionate about it, he blogs about it effortlessly. We recently just found out that even the Reuters republishes some of his posts with a link back to his site. We’re not really sure if that’s okay, but figured since they provided a backlink, then that was fine. He may have actually generated traffic from it. Check out his new domain and drop him a line or two if you may. ;-)

A number of our family members are certified tennis fans. The hubby also likes tennis, although soccer tops his list. If I got it right their all time favorites are the sisters Serena and Venus Williams. Whenever tournaments are scheduled to go live, the boob tube will never cease playing games after games from Wimbledon. The thing is they cannot do that anymore with the cable subscription terminated last month, we just have had enough of their lousy service. Anyway, I think it will delight my folks to know that they can continue to watch Wimbledon LIVE via MediaZone. What’s more is they even get to pick which of the matches they want to watch and even back track to previous matches of years before. Awesome, huh?
