Listening to music

Listening to music is one of my favorite pastime activities, so I always make sure that I have my phone and MP3 with me wherever I go. So, one of the things that I wanted for this holiday is an iPod. Though I am thinking of buying it for myself, but it would be nicer if someone would give it to me as a gift (hehe).

Actually, I am looking at some ipods now and battling with myself whether I will buy it now or wait for someone to possibly give one to me. What do you think?

To readers that has eye problems

I am one of those who loves to read anytime, any day, and in position until I am suffering with my eye problem now and I blame my love for reading. Because I love reading so much that even when I am about to go to sleep and turn off all the lights, I would still want to read and would end up reading with a little bit of light. Then, while on my way to school, I would read in the vehicle where I can't read steadily.

I know they're not good but nothing can stop me from reading. Guess what? I still do it now as long as I can read.

If you are like me, you may like to read (or listen, rather) from an audio book. It is a book of your favorite best sellers but it comes in an audio. So instead of reading it, you can just play it and listen to it. You can even download free audio books now.

So. if you have an eye problem but still love to read, audio book is very good for you.

Jewelry(ies) for a gift

Thanksgiving had just passed and today is officially beginning of holiday season. So, it's time to shop for gifts, decorate your home, and be ready for the next New year.

If you're thinking of having jewelry(ies) as a gift, get them nice and cheap from wholesale fashion jewelry. Buy them in bulk and you'll get them cheaper. That's how wholesale buying works. But you can also buy them in single piece(or pair) if you want to.

Keep coming back here to get more ideas on buying gifts for this holiday season.

Paris Hilton's My New BFF Craze

Call me nuts but I really enjoy watching Paris Hilton's My New BFF TV show on MTV. I know that I am not alone for loving Paris but I like her, she's so cute.

Anyway, it's been awhile since I posted an about what happened lately on the show. Well, couple of weeks ago, they all went to vegas, Paris style, meaning really fabulous.

They went there in a private plane. Then they partied all night. One of their challenges was to perform in a bar and Kelley won that. Another one was to bring guys from there to their mansion in LA, and Vanessa won that challenge. In the long run, Kiki went home after the first challenge, then Kelley followed her a week after.

If you are interested with this show, just keeping coming back to this blog and I'll keep you updated.

Almost done cleaning the house

I am exhausted! But I am not done yet, almost done though.

There's not much cleaning we actually need to do at the house because it is just a small house. But what tire me up the most is picking each toys (Abi's and the cats') because they are scattered all over the house. Some are underneath the appliances. Imagine doing sit-ups and squats 300 times at the same time. Picking up those toys all over the house are like doing those exercises.

Now, I am really tired but still kept on blogging (lol).

Project for home

Me and my husband made a list of the projects that we wanted to do for our home before the year ends or early next year. Most of them are replacing the old things we have, just like our Couches. It doesn't stay on it's place anymore. Each time we sit down on it, the mattresses will move and we need to push it back all the time.

I wanted to buy Leather Couches from www.buycouchesonline.com. They have a wide selection of elegant and comfortable couches and Sofas. You can easily order online too. And it is best to order now because they have a FREE shipping promo on all couches until November 30, 2008.



You can always get a good deal with them because they have a nice quality and looking couches, plus the prices are less than what you expect them to be. They always have the lowest prices compared to their competitors because they always maintain a good relationship with their manufacturers whom they have worked with for the longest of time. So, why shop somewhere else when they can provide you everything that you're looking for. As for me, my next couch would be surely from them.

Lots of fishes to catch

No, I am not talking about real fishes here, I am talking about the opps at PPP.

It has been a while since I saw lots of available opps. Usually, they are all taken or I don't qualify for them. But I am still sad because I only have one blog registered to them, so I can only take 3 opps per day (sigh!).

But if you haven't visited PPP yet, go get those fishes now while they are still available. Remember, they don't stay that long. Good luck!

Helping all the singles out there

One of my friends told me about greatexpections4singles.com. It is an online dating website that doesn't just let you find someone online but in person too because they have a unique service. They hosts events for members in certain locations so that all singles can mingle around and help them find what they are looking for, chemistry. And it is not easy to find that online.

They also do background checks for each member because safety for each member is their main priority. In addition, they always see to it that the videos and photos posted for each member are recent ones.

Anyway, be inspired with the following video that is about a couple who found love from greatexpections4singles.com.


So, if you are looking anywhere but couldn't find one, you may find him at greatexpections4singles.com. With them, you can be sure that you find a good man and not just someone who pretends to be good but could be serial killer. That's scary, right?!

What are you waiting for? Don't let yourself be single anymore, visit the website now and find your own love.

Thanksgiving Day Preparation

Tomorrow would be my first ever Thanksgiving Day celebration. We already made some preparations earlier. Since we are assigned to cook some of the foods, I helped my husband out with the apple pie earlier. Then, I will be doing a general in the house today after I blog to have it presentable tomorrow since my husband's will be coming over for Thanksgiving. I am planning on helping my sister-in-law with her broccoli and rice casserole later this evening coz I wanna learn how to make it.

Am I excited? Yes, I really am. This would be my first Thanksgiving and I have lots of things to Thank about so I know I need to celebrate.

Relatives are coming over for the holiday

I remember when I was in the Philippines, during holidays, some of our relatives would come over to our house because we love to have a big celebration especially during New Years. We always love it when there are lots of people in our house and we never worry about where they will be sleeping because we always have an inflatable air mattress reserved for them.

It is always good to have air mattress reserved whenever guests are coming over. So, if you want to have one, visit www.airmattressinfo.com.

Motorcycle parts

Cruisercustomizing.com is a best place online to shop for motorcycle accessories. You can find any accessories for any brand of motorcycle. Name it, they have it. So, if you are looking for any motorcycle parts and accessories, don't go anywhere else, go to cruisercustomizing.com.

In fact, I just bought saddlebags from them that my brother asked from me. And before I forgot, their products are affordable prices too.

Tuesday Toot: Will Start a Meme/Contest



While me and my husband were playing a game yesterday, we suddenly just came up a good MEME but it's not just an ordinary one, but we will give it a twist. It would be a meme and a contest in one. Click here to know more about it.

This would be my first to start a meme, so I don't know how it will turn out. I hope it would be positive.

Blessings are pouring over me



I am thankful for....

Helping your business

One of the main thing to consider when starting up a business is making sure that you have enough funds for it. You can't just start a business without investing some money and you need to make sure that you have enough investment as a head start. Usually, business would not grow if it is started with low funds. So, if you are planning to start a business or you already have one and just realized that you don't have enough funds, don't woryy, it's never too late because www.onlinecheck.com can help you with their Fast Business Loan program. They approve faster than any other traditional loans. Plus you can get lots of great deals such as the Credit card processing where you can earn with each credit card sales you get.

Ice Cream For Cold Weather

My husband works in Sonic, drive-in fast food restaurant here in the US, and he told me that they sell more ice cream now that the weather is cooler than what they usually sell. Sounds weird huh?!

We are not supposed to eat ice cream coz the weather is already cold but it's really weird how lots of people crave for ice cream in cold weather, even me is craving for ice cream now (hehe).

I remember my husband told me how he eats ice cream underneath his sheets during winter because he really likes to eat it during cold weather. I said to him then that I would never want ice cream in winter. But guess what?! When we went to the grocery store, I craved for ice cream (lol). So, yeah, we'll be having ice cream in a little bit.

Spoiled the whole thing

Have you ever experienced being in a perfect moment then all of a sudden a single thing came in the way and it spoiled everything? It sucks, right? Oh well, things happened and usually when you least expect it. But it really sucks how a simple comment or gesture can ruin everything.

Sometimes, it's really hard to think about all the things that you need to do before you do them, It doesn't always happen and it doesn't work out all the time. It is even common to happen that we may have said something that hurt someone without us being aware of it. We will just be surprise to know she already hate you for something that you don't know you did. Yeah, crazy, but it happens.

But if you have done something wrong, whether you did it intentionally to hurt somebody or not, there's only one word that should just fix everything, SORRY. For me it is magical but Dao Meng Zhi (from Meteor Garden) doesn't like saying sorry coz if we accept a simple apology as saying sorry, then police will be useless. That's his opinion though.

Anyway, I am just saying this because I just remembered something happened last night that is related to this but I will not go through it coz it's a personal matter. Thanks for reading! :-)

Lucky and Blessed

In love, always and forever.

Whenever I think about my husband, I always remember how lucky I am. No, he is not perfect. No one is. But for me, he is just next to perfect.

Sometimes, I would even ask myself why do I have to deserve a man like him. He is a really good man. Everyone can say that. Though sometimes he is a big smartass, but that is just part of him being a human (or is he? lol)

One of the things that I am lucky about for having him is his family. They are so dear to me. Eversince I met them, they always treated me as a part of their family. They loved my son like their own blood and I can always see it. No doubt about that.

There is just one word that I can describe my marriage to Mr. Andrew Wayne Kuhn, BLESSED.

Getting sick again?

Oh I hate the change of climate. I hate it not because I am not used to it but because my body seemed to not liking it. I like cold weather, who doesn't? But not the cold-snow weather, just cold weather like what we have been having these past few days. But even though I love it, my body keeps telling me to hate it coz each time the weather changes like this, I will get sick. Or maybe the reason why is I am really used to it.

Like right now, I am not feeling very well. We went out yesterday and stayed outside with the cold weather for a few hours. Then when I woke up this morning, I felt like a total crap. Cough and colds has came back to me again. But I am so proud of my son though coz while I had been sick couple of times since we got here, my son, never. I hope he would stay that way coz I would never wanted him to be sick. It will drive me real nuts.

But, oh well, I am sick, but that would never stop me to blog. That is why I am making this post now. :D

Playground Fun

We just got home from the playground. Actually, we got home then had lunch and now I am blogging again while hubby is putting our son to bed for his nap time.

At least once a week, we'd see to it that we go somewhere to have fun and bond. Normally, we'd go to a playground just like what we did today. Though it is very cold outside, but we just had a couple of shirts on to keep ourself warm and comfy.

Originally, hubby planned on going to an animal shelter to play with some dogs and cats. We already did that once and we all had fun especially after seeing a german sheperd puppy who likes my hubby so much. But this time, we hoped to go to a different animal shelter but when we got there, there was a sign that said "Authorized Personnel Only", so we assumed that we can't get inside. We tried calling them but it will only send us to an answering machine. Good thing though there is a playground nearby that shelter, so we just end up going there. Then we did some hiking since there's a hiking trail along the river there.

Even if we didn't ended up doing the things that we planned but we still had a great time together.

Christmas is in the air

That is what people would say if it is starting to be cold. Right now, we have 45ºF temperature outside and according to the weather forecast yesterday, it is supposed to go down between 10ºF to 30ºF today. Ohhh...cold... I know this would not be the coldest yet coz in some part of US is much cooler than what we have right now here in Texas. But I am not used to cold weather like this coz I grew up in the Philippines where it is warm most of the time.

Asexuality, is it normal?

I was watching 20/20 on WeTV earlier and the topic is about weird marriage and relationship. Then they interviewed some people who are Asexual, someone who does not experience sexual attraction.

One of people that 20/20 had interviewed is the founder of Asexuality Organization on the web. He was 23 years but never had sec and never had a relationship. He said that he was never even attracted to anyone yet. The host asked him, "What if she will give a pill that would make him want sex, would he take it and have sex?". He said, "No coz I don't want to have sex.".

There was a couple who are planning to get married and they are one their guests said that they never had sex. But there was one time whne they were fooling around and suddenly felt the urge to have sex, but at that time, it never happened. Thet had sex though but only once and doesn't want to try it again. Though they quit from the asexuality organization but they still considered themselves asexual.

Asexuality is different from Celibacy. Celibacy is by choice while asexuality is something that just naturally grew in them.

I always like watching 20/20 but this topic really caught my attention. Honestly, this is the first time I've really understand asexuality. The first thing that came into my mind was "that's crap". Who would not want to have sex? Yes, sex may just be a humanly pleasure, but it's different feeling and it was clearly stated in the bible that we should engaged to it, so it is also God's commandment. Therefore, if you are married, it is a sin not to have sex with your partner. But that's my opinion and we are all entitled to it.

My Silly but Loving Husband

Enjoy the video!



Yes, he is husband. Though I have the right to deny it (lol! peace!), but I won't. He maybe as silly as what you saw on that video, but he is a very loving husband. Always more than what I can ask for a husband.

Anyway, I didn't post this video to embarrass him coz I had his permission and he intentionally did it so that I can have that video. He is always silly in real life and he is taking that as a compliment. Anyway, he is not alone, my son and me, myself are silly too. I'm sure you are too, right? :D

Guitar Hero

Finally, I was able to play the talk-of-the-town new game Guitar Hero. My sister-in-law had just bought another Guitar Hero guitar so she has two guitars now. She really wanted me and my husband to play with her but we just can;t find time. But last Sunday, my son had stayed asleep when we got home from visiting my hubby's parents, so I finally had the chance since I didn't start my blogging that day yet. My sister-in-law invited me again before I started the blogging too and I don't want to turn her down.

I had a great fun only that since it was my first time, I couldn't get through most pf the songs that we played. I don't think it's hard though, it's only a matter of getting used to the guitar and familiarizing the buttons. But I guess I did pretty well and my sister-in-law said that I was improving based on the stats (hope so..lol).

Laughter Time: Call Center Jokes

Addicted to online games

If you have noticed, I don't make as much post as what I usually do these past few days. The main reason is I don't wanna be rich (jk)(lol). Seriously, because I am addicted to a couple of online games now, as what the title of this post says. My hubby has been a little bit addicted too, but I am not letting him because we only have one computer that is working properly (not really) right now (lol).

What I like most about it is I am earning money while I am having fun, just like blogging. Signing up is free and you can enjoy unlimited games.

If you are an online gamer like me and wants to earn while playing games, check out my post on my Money Maker blog.

Planning for Thanksgiving Day

I am excited for Thanksgiving! We don't have Thanksgiving in the Philippines. But now that we are here in the US with my husband, we will have our very first Thanksgiving Day. And we will have it here in our own humble home with my husband's family: his parents and his sister. Unfortunately, his brother would be celebrating it with his wife's family so he won't be with us during that day.

Anyway, me, my husband, and his sister will be fixing the turkey and the dressing, apple pie, cheesy corn, and other stuffs that I can't recall at the top of my head right now. I may don't know how to do them but I am always willing to learn and taste (lol).

What Flower Am I?




You Are a Tulip



You have a wild, experimental side that craves change.

You often switch jobs and lovers, always looking for something better.

But deep down, you're also very well grounded and content.

And you will come to know that the life you live is already ideal.



I took another cute test from Blogthings.com. I just had nothing to do today other than the usual. So, here I am in front of the computer, trying to figure out the things that I needed to do online.

Nov 14, 2008

Playground

We just got home from the playground. At least once a week, on my hubby's day off, we would go to the playground nearby for my son to be able to run around have fun. That would a way for me and my son to get outside the house. Also, it is another way for us the whole family to bond.

Nov 13, 2008

Waffles for dinner

Who says that waffles are only for breakfast? Well, not for me. Waffles can be eaten anytime. Just like me and my son's dinner yesterday. We are both alone together, so there's no sense for me to prepare a typical meal coz it takes a while and I don't want to prepare that much coz we already have lots of leftovers in our fridge. Though one cooking of waffle is more than enough for us and we eventually have leftover, but that is always my husband's share and he already ate it for breakfast earlier.

My Birth Date Mean For My Love Life

I found a quiz from Blogthings.com, called What Does Your Birth Date Mean For Your Love Life? This is very easy, just put your birthdate and they will give you the result. My result is below with the reason why I consider them true or false.

You may watch someone from afar before you finally decide to make your move. FALSE
Normally, if I like someone, I would just go dirctly to him and ask him out. I am aggressive in comes to that.

It takes a long time for you to develop an attraction to someone.FALSE
As what my husband would always say, I am gullible, which is true in most aspect of my life, especially in love. It doesn't take much for someone to make me like him (ask my husband), but ... read the next phrase ...

Generally, you prefer to pick who you love. Anyone who tries to rush you is in for some heartache.TRUE
I may be easily attracted to someone but that doesn't mean that I love him.. Of course, I like good-looking guys! (who doesn't?). Attraction takes a millisecond, but love always takes much more than that.

Number of True Loves You'll Have: 1 TRUE
Yes, of course, my husband is my only One True Love

Number of Times You'll Have Your Heart Broken: 1 FALSE
You don't have any idea how many frog princes I've met and they all broke my heart. Sad but true.

You are most compatible with people born on the 2nd, 11th, 20th, and 29th of the month. VERY TRUE
2nd is my Mom's birthday, 11th is mine, 20th is my husband's, and 29th is my bestfriend's. (weirh huh?!)

Hubby's embarrassing moment

This is not about embarrassing my hubby coz I would never do that, even if he'd ask me to do so. But this is about of those embarrassing and funny experiences he had when he was just a kid. If I remember it right, he was around 7 years old when this happened.

He went with his father, one day, to hunt deer and to train him on hunting deers as well. His father showed him the differences between a male and a female deer. Then, when they got home, his Mom asked him what's the differences he saw between the male and female deer, and he said "male deer is HORNY" (lol).

If you didn't get that, let me explain it to you further. The most obvious distinction of a male deer is has horns while female deer hasn't. So, that is what he saw, that's why he said Horny. Makes sense?! :-)

Another way of reducing body fats

I am still continuously searching for more effective ways of reducing body fat aka weight loss. This time, I found Lipovox, the original so-called "Super Foods" supplement that doesn't just burn fats quicker than dieting and exercise but also reduces the possible existence of acne and wrinkles. It contains 10 Super Foods:
Brazilian Acai, Cayenne Pepper Fruit, Garlic, Soybeans Isoflavones, Barley, Wheatgrass, Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Alfalfa Sprouts, Flaxseed and Buckwheat; and

2 Super Antioxidants:
Green Tea Extract and Salmon Oil Powder.

Thos Super-ingredients will definitely help your body burn fats quickly, being healthy, and having a healthy and young-looking skin at the same time.

Sheet hog

When I woke up this morning, my husband greeted me with something really amusing that I did last night. He said that I was a sheet hog coz I didn't share the sheet with him while we're sleeping. Actually, he said it happened early this morning before he got up from bed. I grabbed the whole sheet and I had my body wrapped around the whole sheet. He didn't got mad or upset about it though coz he knew that I did it unconciously (lol!) but if it was the other way around, he will be in great trouble. Not fair, right? But that's who it is supposed to be (lol! luv u hon... :-P).

Getting fussy

My son is getting fussy now. I feel about it coz I think he needs my attention pretty bad. I am giving him attention though but I am doing my assignment at the same time and he doesn't like it. He wants a 100% attention from. So' I'd better finish this all stuff right away before my son would beat me (lol .. jk)

Tired and restless

Today, I am so tired and seems like restless. I may have rest but it can never be enough. This all started since my husband had been going home late from work regularly coz he is always assigned for closing shift. I am blaming it to him coz he doesn't have a choice about it. I just can't go to sleep when he's not home yet coz I worry a lot. So, it's somehow my fault.

Now, I feel like I am about to be sick. Most part of my body is aching. It could be because of lack of rest or I don't move a lot. But I really don't know. I'm just not feeling well. (*sigh*)

What hairstyle is best for you?

It is never easy to determine what hairstyle works the best for you. Well, it may be easy by knowing the shape of your face, your complexion, etc. but it would be best to see yourself with the hairstyle that you wanted. Good thing there is TheHairstyler.com to where you can see yourself with over 8,000 hairstyles.


Just simply upload your photo and watch yourself virtually having different hairstyle and compare which hairstyle really suits you. It would be really easier to decide which hairstyle you wanted if you will know how would you look with it first. So, before you head your way to your hairstylist, check out first the hairstyle that looks best on you.

I think I love my hair now (lol!)

I have always been pissed about my hair coz for me it is the worst hair in the entire world. It is so dry and frizzy. Well, I somehow blame myself why my hair has become like what it is now because I haven't been taking care of it before and now I know I need to suffer and pay for it.

But, this post is not about that because I think I love my hair now. Right at this moment, my hair is not as coarse as what it is used to be. Maybe because I got the right product.

I bought new brand of shampoo and conditioner couple of weeks ago and I got a smoothing cream for curly hair and it is also for anti-frizz which what I really needed. I have been using them for couple of days already and I guess it worked this time. This what I did:

-> Shampoo my hair every other day but wash hair and put conditioner on it everyday.
-> Put the hair creme for curly hair that has anti-frizz.
-> Comb hair right after I put the cream and let it dry.
=> Don't comb hair right after it is dried coz it would cause frizziness


That's it. You can try it if you have the same problem that I had with my hair. It wasn't that hard but based on my own experience, it works great.

What's Up?!?

(Asking myself)

Nothing much. I'm disappointed coz I there's no opps that I like available for me. My hubby is cutting a deer meat with his Dad. His Dad did deer hunting the other day with his brother and he gave us a whole deer meat that would probably last for couple of months or more than that. While their processing the meat, I am trying to get Abi away from them coz raw meat has a lot of bacteria that is bad for anyone especially kids.

That would be it for now. I hope that I can make more post later.

Cold Out Here

OMG! This morning is the coldest I ever had here. Right now, the temperature is 48F. Though we already turned our heater on, my feet are still cold. I know it is much cooler in most part of the US and I am lucky to be here in Texas coz there's not really a much difference with the weather in the Philippines.

In pain

Yes, I am in pain right now. There is something near my throat that's bothering me. It hurts when I talk and eat. I know it's not in my throat but it's inside my mouth.

I always hate it when I am feeling something like this. But still blogging though. I think even if I am dying, I would still blog. I can never live a day without blogging.

Good morning sunshine!

It seems that a miracle happened today. I woke up earlier than usual (LOL!). I know it's not quite a big deal but it is for me, and I guess for my husband too. He has been good enough to let me sleep in each time it's his off or he goes to work late afternoon, like today.

But anyway, the very first thing I saw in the web this morning is a military gear website. I just got interested in it because of all the stuffs they have just like the Galco holsters. Well, if you know a military or if you are a military, you can find lots of military gears available online at www.lapolicegear.com.

Still feeling miserable

I already took a nap but it wasn't as long as what I needed. My son had a bad dream and his crying woke me up. After that, I just can't go back to sleep again. So, I went back blogging and updating our website. Since I didn't have enough sleep and wasn't able to take my regular nap, I'm still feeling miserable right at this moment. (*sigh*)

Toss and Turn

Last night, I didn't have enough sleep. Actually, for the past few nights already coz of hubby's work schedule. Each time he works, he gets to close the store which makes him home around 12:00MN-2:00AM. Then I'm having hard time going to sleep until he's home coz I can think of lots of things coz of my pessimism.

Yesterday was actually my hubby's off. We went to the Outlet mall in the afternoon to do some window shopping which made us all so tired. We went to bed early, around 9:00PM and I was dozing off but can't quite go to sleep coz my son was in his sleepy-but-don't-want-to-go-to-sleep activity again. And that made me lose the need for sleep. I toss and turn, did everything I could to go to sleep to no avail. But hubby, even though so tired and sleepy, stayed up all night with me until I finally went to sleep which i think around 3:00AM.

Right, I'm still feeling miserable but need to do some blogging before I'll take my nap. I need to take the chance while my son is taking his nap too.

My Monthly Target

As you all know, I am making money online. I don't make that much though but I am setting a monthly target for whatever purpose it may serve. Right now, my goal is $200 per month. So far so good. I have calculated my earnings and for the past 3 months, I made above my target. If only I can maintain a good PR on my blog, I would increase my earning goal.

How about you? How much do you earn? ;-)

Island Garden City Of Samal (IGaCoS)

Island Garden City of Samal (IGaCoS) is a group of island in the heart of Davao Gulf. Mostly known as the Samal Island is one of the newest cities in the country, physically unattached to mainland Mindanao.

A great place to those who are seeking solace in an unspoiled but natural ambiance. But you can also find great adventures and extreme challenges and still be close to nature. Blessed with beautiful coast having white sand beaches, abundant marine life, magnificent rock formations, and flourishing flora and fauna. It is home to the famous Pearl Farm Beach Resort, which was once literally a pearl farm.

But the beauty of the island is not just with its white and unspoiled beaches or its diverse natural attractions but to its warm and lovely people as well. All these make this island a potential world-class eco tourism destination in this part of the Philippines.

The name speaks for itself and for what a place is destined to become – an island cluster emerging to become the international center and financial district for the BIMP-EAGA (Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines – East ASEAN Growth Area) as laid out in the Davao Integrated Development Program (DIDP).

It would take around 10-15 minutes to get to Samal with motorboat, ferry boat, and Island Bus that are all based in Davao City. A guided tour of the island will let you discover its inland treasures - the rivers, waterfalls, antique mansions and ancestral houses, and the world renowned cave that hosts the world’s biggest colony of fruit bats. Local and foreign scientists say that the cave (one of the 70 caves in the island) is home to 1.8 million Geoffrey’s Rousette Fruit Bat.

There are lots of beach resorts where you can stay over night. The most popular ones are Pearl Farm Beach Resort, Paradise Island, Kaputian Beach, Talikud Beach, Isla Reta, Blue Waters, Palm Hill, and Costa Marina.

You can never get enough stay in Samal because because of all the things that you can do there such as swimming, beach and island hopping, camping, hiking, exploring caves and falls, snorkeling, scuba diving, and relax as you observe it's natural beauty.

5 hour sleep

I felt so miserable right now because I only have 5 hour sleep. Probably less than that. Why? My husband went home late from work. He works at Sonic and since yesterday was last day of the month of October, they need to do the inventory. He got home about 4:00AM. Actually, he is still asleep right now and he needs to be at work in 12:00NN.

Anyway, though I felt miserable, it can't stop me to blog. (lol)
