of kate and life

we were at the bowling lanes until midnight. we had fun!!!

that’s my hubby. strike yan! he also got the highest points tonight.

syempre pa my hubby and i can’t do without our crazy pose[s]

is he cute or what?!

our boys like to goof around at syempre ako ang director ng posing ever!

fun night talaga.

we did not even care that there were other people around. eh ano naman ha ha.

i got high scores too and a lot of strikes and spares but near the end of the game medyo nanghina na kase almost 3 hrs din kme naglaro.

bowling tonight badminton tomorrow!

i bought a new pair of eyeglasses last night and finally got the burberry pair that i wanted.

this means i am spending way too much time in front of the computer again.

well, i already have 2 pairs but was tired of those so i decided to get a new one. eh he he he.

an ex bf sent me a message yesterday.  just a one liner but it was nice.  my husband doesn’t know he he.

tomorrow is a day off and is the official start of my flower and cake decor class.  i am so excited!

driving lessons in 15 days.  i don’t know if i am excited about that.  well, i do know how to drive but i lack the confidence in driving in busy streets.  i hope that the driving class will give me what i need.

crazy weather, one day it’s scorching hot, next day it’s raining cats and dogs.

too random but at least i’m blogging.

so yeah, til the next post

it’s been ages since i last went to the kitchen to cook.  well, that has been changed!  i just finished cooking my ever famous and always coveted spaghetti.  hoorah!

i am such a pasta lover.  this may be because when i was young my mother always celebrated special occasions with bowls and bowls of spaghetti.  i know a lot of you can relate to this.

someone once told me that there are only 2 types of pinoys in this world.

1. the pancit eaters

2. the spaghetti eaters

ha ha.  also, they said that mature people tend to opt for pancit and the kids-at-heart go for spaghetti. ha ha!

so yeah, right now we are just waiting for the pasta to cook.

yum!

i had a bad week last week what with my stuffed nose and my hoarse voice. arghh. i am getting better now but am so busy. we are gradually selling our stuff in preparation for my departure in september. it is so difficult to let go of out stuff because we really worked hard to get them.

some of the things i would rather just give away like this huge thai painting and the other paintings that we have [like 8 total], the computer tables, the dining tables those things.

we are still looking for someone to buy our beloved charlie [ our honda jazz ]. i don’t want to wait til the last minute because the last time i left thailand, i was not able to sell a single thing and just ended up giving all of my things away. super sayang.

so we have to sell our car, 3 motorcyles named pip, suzie and yami. the fridge, the washing machine, 2 tv’s, 2 dvd players, tons and tons of dvd, lamps, bed, arghhh the list goes on and on.

i’m a little bit excited and scared. it’s scary to go back to square one. plus the fact that allan and i have gotten so used to living here in udon.

well there’s no saying that i am never coming back but i don’t want to entertain that thought right now. i just want to focus on the life that we will have there.

so, yeah.

anyways, thanks you guys for still visiting my blog. my hands are just really full right now so it’s less blogging more work.

so, yeah, til the next entry, ok?

right, i am back [somehow]. hey you guys, i finally bought the desktop. it’s more convenient this way. no regrets, truly happy with the purchase.

nothing much is new. yesterday my boss told me that i was already up for another salary increase. hmm, is it really june already? ang bilis talaga.

one more day and we get to have another day of rest. i was sick last monday so it was the bed and whiny me. i plan to fully enjoy this coming monday. maybe spend the afternoon at the park [ hope it doesn't rain hard ]

i might go to new zealand september or october this year. really can’t tell if i am excited or not.  so, the plan is, i go first and allan will follow. you see, that’s the part i am not excited about. last year, i went to australia without him and i really did not enjoy it that much. not because melbourne isn’t nice but because i didn’t get to share the whole experience with allan.

the french online esl company has been very patient with me but we are yet to talk for the interview. the problem seems to be coming from my end [ she can't reach me via landline] but the nice thing about her is that she told me that she won’t let that get in the way of getting to know me better. there’s always skype, thank god.

so, yeah. that’s it for now.

bye, you guys!

i’ve almost forgotten how love hurts….ouch.

i’m already on my 23rd episode (season 2) of boston public.  this i what keeps me awake til the wee hours.  i know it is bad to stay til 4-5 in the morning but when you live in a country where english tv shows are rare and english movies are dubbed in thai, then you grab your chance when a series you love is free for you to watch.

allan in in the den while i sit in front of the computer.  we need to buy a new computer soon.  allan needs it when he practices the guitar.  of course, i get the new one and he will get the hand-me-down.  he he.

with a bit of luck, allan and i don’t have to report to work until 10 am.  that buys me a couple of hours of extra sleep.

i bought new speakers for my laptop and it had made boston public - watching so much easier and enjoyable.  i realize it’s been ages since i last posted a photo so i’ll put that on my to-do list and post some pictures soon.

school is 3 days away.  i’m not excited.  thinking about it makes me tired.  hay.

i better get some shut-eye.

i finally got 6 hours of sleep!

thank you, Lord.

after almost five years working in the same school, the boss has finally given me my own assistant!  hoorah.  this should make things a little bit easier for me.  i’m really excited and happy.  nut [pronounced as noot] and i seem to be having good chemistry.  she’s nice and attentive.  i just have to watch out and observe if there are going to be fangs and horns in the next couple of months.  i really hope not.

allan and i went shopping, well, actually i did the shopping while allan was with me.  i bought 4 tops and 2 pairs of shoes.  at the end of that very enjoyable activity [at least for me ha ha] allan said:  “this is what a husband gets when she fights with his wife….”  see, my hubby is very loving and funny. he he.

school is bound to start next week,  i am dreading it because the number of students increased  more than 300 percent! nah, no need for eyeballs to bulge.  we only used to have 5 students for the entire school as we are fairly new. well, this school is not to be confused with the language school that i am working at right now.  the boss expanded last year hence the new school.  anyways, this increase in students can only mean more reports to do, more lesson plans and more admin work for me.  an assistant really comes in handy. he he.

i’m afraid i’m back to being an insomniac.  i hate it.  i hate myself in the mornings,  i could hardly function.  last night i slept at 5am.  i was in bed by 3am but i just could not bring myself to sleep.  the day before that i slept at 7 am and woke up at 8:30.  it was horrible,

so now at 1.44am i am vowing to try my hardest to get some much needed rest by 2:30.

allan and i have been watching boston legal over the internet.  it’s really fun. i so love allan shore and denny crane!  what a bunch of loonies!

i can’t believe how fast time flies.  one more month and it’s will have been half a year already.

what’s happened to you in the past four months?
