Science Lab!

As I said on my latest post that we have to do a graded laboratory on our Science subject. I was so thankful because it really went well. We were paired two by two (my partner took the picture:) and I was lucky because she's swedish and young. I mean it helps me a lot in the sense that my partner understood clearly all instructions which I'm not good at..heheh, I mean scientific terms in swedish are quite hard. Anyway, we were second to finish all the requirements and with a job well done comments from our teacher:)

Actually, this subject is the hardest and the most boring for me. But then during laboratory, I had fun! Specially when you will found out something strange from one experiment to another! So exciting, finding out different cell type on every thing living or non-living!

Have a great weekend guys!!!

Problem in my pregnancy!

I'm lack of iron:(

This is always been my problem even from my childhood. And iron is very important when pregnant. It craves more iron than normal when you are bearing a child. So, during our check-up, I was already expecting it. The same way when I was pregnant with Laikka. So as usual the doctor gave me the iron tablet that I used to take during laikka's time! I thought, we thought it will work good for me in the same way too, but we are wrong! This time I got some problem. It causes me constipation and weee..I don't like it! Specially when it attacks during my working time or at school where I had a problem using public toilets.

So, I went back to my doctor and she explained that it can really happen. Every pregnancy are not the same and the same way with its needs. So, she just let me try to take the medicine every other day this time instead of daily BUT... I have to eat foods everyday that has rich iron in it which I hate most of them..heheh. But I need to do it, even the fresh salad should have like persilla, and liver pastel as my sandwich spread! uuh! but its for my own good and for my baby:)

Hubby's newbie:)

My husband wished to have this road navigation gadget on our car because we both likes to travel by car. We are fond of going to places which we think is interesting. We also likes to visit friends on travel distance.

And this summer vacation, because we were planning trips around Europe by car, he really wanted to have this gadget in preparation for our different trips. This is very important specially to places you are not familiar of driving.

Then finally, last friday he got it! And I can see the gladnesss on his face and satisfaction. Now, we are ready to ramble..hehhe! One of the places we plan to go is Paris, France and visit the Euro Disney and to this place I am excited the most:) It's now 90% sure, just my condition we are a little worried but I know everything will be fine in God's will. Little by little, every need already provided:)

God is good, all the time!!!:)

CRUISIN'...Wonderful TIME!

Sometimes, I ponder... " who am I to deserve this kind of life I have:)" In everything I have now and I had before, Everytime I think about it, I always ended up thanking God for everything! I feel so lucky and blessed!

As I said that last week was a very busy week for me specially last friday:) But then, times like that makes me feel good:) Why, because my mind will be active and my life will become more alive! And much more happy when the one you love see your effort and in so many simple ways do things that somehow makes you feel special. And thats what my husband did for me! We took a short cruise to Denmark yesterday..just relaxing, eating, playing,taking pictures, roaming around and do some shopping and watching few entertainment in the boat!:) lyx!

Its good to have time with our darlings! Free from hazzles and pressures, just enjoying the moment with quality time together! To have time together with our love ones like these is worth keeping! A time, family should have from time to time!

Godbless us all! Have a wonderful time always! A quality time is a precious time no money can buy:)

Eewww! it was not easy!

Finally my National Exam is over. It took me six long hours answering that one and only question! huh! ONLY ONE? for six hours.., yap, it sounds like its so easy but it was not! In all exams I've taken from the past here in Sweden, It was the exam that I really felt the pressure, I really felt that I am in the act of proving my self. hahhaha! Anyway I did my best! I've done my part! so I'll leave to God the rest!

All my classmates seemed so ready how it will be because they have lots of foods and drinks with them! I only had an empty table! I thought they were acting so over..heheh but then as the exam goes on I understand! The exam makes us hungry and gives headaches!lol! But so late, I had nothing!

So after the exam my husband pick me up from school and I told him everything and how it was and how I feel. (drama) So kind of him that he brought me to Bamboo Restaurant and we eat mongolian food! Here you can have what you want! A little expensive here (for me) but it's our favorite place when we got much blessings! hahahah!

The dessert angelikka most awaited part..ice cream with fruits! and the bald boys give aways as their trademark always an excitement for me! They have different styles and positions and this time are boys in blue:) nice! I already have few and these two be an additional:)

Oh! we went home with stomach full that made me sleep right after my back touches the bed! heheh! Have a nice weekend!

Insight's Story!

One year ago, April 23, we hanged out together with shy and and jenny at my crib. They talked to me about blogging and that they're earning money from it! That time, we shared about how swedish grammar made our english grammar confusing! That time I noticed that my english became so bad! So, I showed interest in blogging for the hope that I can somehow make used of my english again and become better through writing english articles everyday:)

Right then and there, Sarah showed me how and helped me compose this site INSIGHTS. This title was not well-planned, it was like just for a try-out. But as you can see, it became permanent! The first 3 months became my learning process..and when I found out that there are already so many bloggers and different title going on in the blogsphere! So, I suppose to change my title but it will be complicated! So I stayed that way!

Now, in it's one year, I can't ask for more! Did my english improved.., I think so:) Did I earned from it too? Yes, more than I've expected, Friends??? absolutely! and a lot more!

In celebration on its blogversary, I want to give this two words as a sort of gratitude to all who's been with me, following my posts and those kind commentators and everyone who spared their time to visit!

See you around:) As I continue enjoying this thing called blogging:) Godbless!

Can't believe it! ONE YEAR!?

Hurrah! tomorrow will be my National Exam on Swedish Language and I thank you all for the wishes and prayers for me. But aside from it, tomorrow also will be my one year in the blogging world:) Tomorrow will I celebrate the birth day of my "Insights" blog. I cant' believe it! I'm already one year in this business?

I've learned a lot from here. I've met new friends, I learned how to work online, and even managing my time and also, I can see lots of improvements in me when it comes to writing! I found heathy way in releasing my stress and pressures! I learned many facts and interesting write ups, like Home Improvements, Self Encouragement, Business Articles , Family or Couple's topic and lot more by reading other sites! Those are food of the brain and healthy! I even met christians here. So, I'm so proud and thankful having this oppurtunity to be "in" in this blogging world!

I want to express my gratitude to all who become a part of my life here. Thanks to all of you for being a friend and mentors! I hope that in some way I also took a special part here. Thanks to all my sponsors who believes in me. And as I continue writing different articles here, I just hope you will stay and continue to walk with me. God bless us all!!!

Last weekend, we had really fun putting up my MILs house wagon, together with the whole family! This camp site really is wonderful. The people are so friendly and always happy! Thats why its been always exciting everytime!

Saturday, they started putting up the tent..it was not easy and took time. Only my husband, his sister with her hubby and my MiL did most of the things. I was just there watching the children and enjoying the gentle breeze around the site! I love the sorroundings..so cool and calm!

A place for Moms and Kids!

As I ponder after reading the post. I looked back on my childhood years! My cousins had a twin bunk bed and I felt jealous wanting to have like that too. But sad to say my parents cannot afford to buy one for us. Now that I become a mom and have a sweet lovely girl and soon another one is coming by september, all I wanted is the best for my children. And I'm so happy to know about what Grace reviewed about Mom's Bunk House where bunk beds are so great for kids! The post is so informative and personal. It touches mother's hearts and she's right, ay Moms Bunk House theres always best place for Moms! I haven't heard it before but I'm fully get into it now! Thanks for sharing and I'm sure, many Moms still out there who are like me and will be happy to know about this! Good job!

Clowns!!!

As I said, we had a chance to watch a circus last friday! It was mixed with fun and excitement! There were many tricks shown and breathtaking shows but there were also clowns who entertains. He just play simple tricks but he gave us a good laugh!

As I was watching him.. he 's already old with a funny face drawn! As the typical clown with the big mouth like always smiling! Yes! he maybe made us happy but we don't know the reality inside him. Their work is not that easy. They have their own real life but when they have to work to make people laugh, they have to set aside their real world, even if when they are in sad or bad times maybe! All we can see on them is that they are always funny:)

Yes! sometimes, we need to have a clown attitude, hiding our real feelings just to let others to be happy and even our selves. Have a nice day!

Our Shadow:)

One of our family bonding is taking a walk around specially when the weather is nice . And it's so heartwarming when finally we saw our shadow as we walked along the plain narrow road:)
Our shadows portrays something, and I'm so happy and satisfied seeing our shadow as a family holding hands, walking side by side:) My girl first noticed it. She tried to walked over the shadow but she can't:) So she have many questions about it and we also tried our best to answer! I know she still don't understand what I was trying to explain but when I told her that its you, it's us, so you must be careful on it, just enjoy watching them:) heheh.. she just simply said; "aha! okey då!" heheh!

Trade Show Exibits!!!

Are you fond of having trade show exibits???

I'm always captivated every time I passed by on a certain place where there's a trade show. I will be entertained by the different unique exibits, and displays. As we can see, Trade show exibits are used at a variety of events to present products, ideas, build awareness and the like. Most likely, its on print or graphics idea that reflects what ever they are trying to portray or sell! This is one best way to captivate people, to check what they have and can make them interested and even buy the product!

Now here's a company that can help you beautify your display and make it presentable! For example on events table covers. Events like conventions, job fairs or any people oriented events. They can be in a variety of shapes and colors,even printed with your own logo. This one stop supplier of affordable table covers and skirts will help you out on it! They have variety of styles and colors that fits your desired exibits table.

Not only they have tables covers, but also for top displays. Table top displays are just like exibits, except they fit on top of the table. Like pop ups, banners stands and more. You can also check their Directors chairs. All these are extremely portable and utilize a shipping case that can be checked in as luggage and converted to a podium.

If you look on something that can meet exactly what you wanted, delivery on time or shall I say, they can ship the same day, a reasonable prices, you can check them out! a company that always want a perfect result for the good of their costumers!

Its gonna be fun!

Next week my days will be hard:) Every single day has its own important schedules. As in my planner has no vacant page next week! But before that happens, we have to enjoy first ourselves to watch a circus this friday;) My husband got these treat/tickets from his extra work and so lucky because its for the whole family! He recieved 3 tickets for entrance, 3 tickets for a meal and 3tickets for a snacks! Oh love it!

This will be my first time to watch their circus here..heheh I'm so curious what its gonna be:) As far as I remember, I saw a circus in Philippines when I was age 7 or 8 and all I can remember is that a beautiful sexy woman walking in the rope with a stick with fire on her mouth and hands..hahahah! Weee..its gonna be fun!

This is the day that the Lord hath made!

It's really good to have a walk in the morning specially when the sun is shining:) It's like its so dum to just stay inside the house while the sun who's not always there, now shining beautifully and almost every one is out to enjoy. Eveyone we met were smiling as the sun smiles:) Thanks to my daughter who really wants to go out and I'm glad I had a chance to take a few rounds walking around, watching the birds so happy and children running, playing, biking and happy!

After we went few rounds, and my daughter already tired and am sure hungry because we went out with out her taking her breakfast yet. I felt hungry too, so I cooked an easy to do food and guess what, I did a 'tortang talong' again since there's still two eggplants left from our girl's bonding! And it turn out to be so good and yummy that even Laikka eats plenty..hehe! Oh! beautiful day indeed!

Thank you Lord for everyday:)

Our first grill this season:)

Since we had a long winter this year, almost all people here are so excited waiting for the summer to come. Which of course to do the things that portrays summer time! Number one is having picnic barbecue grilling outside!

Today, we had a wonderful weather. The sun was shining the whole day! It already smells summer actually hehe:) While I was at work, my husband called me that his sister inviting us a dinner. They have to grill pork outside since the weather is s

o perfect! Without their knowledge, I was really wishing and imagining about it that day. I suppose will suggest my husband to do so at home but then here comes the perfect invitation..hhehe!

Oh, it was really so good. I felt so satisfied. It feels like I haven't eaten like that in already one decade! lolzzz. The combination was so perfect -fresh salad, potato fries with yummy sauce! Oh the best!!! Plus, the nice time bonding as a family..We chat, we laugh and shared funny experiences and even summer vacation plans:) Thanks Mia and Patrick..you're the best!!!

What a wonderful day!

Weee... finally got a chance to hang-out with friends again today and this time at our pad:) When you are away from home, studying the language not your own, trying to adjust the lifestyle you are not used to, fighting to understand the society far different from yours, carrying the responsibilities on us back home...if you think about all these things, a big tendency to collapse.

We need friends who have the same shoes as ours. Friends whom even just laughing with them, chatting the same story or repeated topics but we still enjoy to talk about them. Friends whom we can share nonsense things actually with them but it releases the heaviness we might have within. Today, as we usually do, we cooked foods that somehow we missed eating it for so long like the "tortang talong":) oh it was so good. Plus, Jenny did the yummy steamed fish and the smell itself made us hungry. We had bean soap(moggo), plain rice and friend rice:) We ended up with full stomach and happy:)

Thanks dear friends! Today, it was a wonderful day!

Basement attack!

Oh! I really find it hard nowadays to find a comfortable clothes for me everyday when I go to school and work. I used to have small and so fitted jeans, so, its easy for those to become so small already in just a little growth of my tummy:)

So, we did raid our basement to look for my pregnant clothes during Laikka's time. Hoping I'll find something that I can reuse since pregnant clothes are bit expensive:) I was looking for my two favorite preggy pants but I could not find it! We found few of my dasters and homey blouses but not which can be use when we go out:I Then my husband reminded me of someone that borrowed my preggythinge if she had returned it:) hahhah ..I don't remember and she also forget maybe! wahahahahh! Oh, well, any donors there!!! lol!

Birds Sanctuary!

We traveled 2 hours from home yesterday to the place where different birds stayed nowadays. I was so amazed seeing the countless birds, big and small. Some of these birds already came home since winter is over now here, but some of those also are from other land where still so cold and time comes that they also will go home!




It was a good family bonding watching the wonderful nature with all these wonderful creatures! When they're there up high they seems so small but they're actually so big down there:)

It was great! Today is another day and we are still free from work and all. Still thinking what and where we will go to enjoy this day:) Godbless everyone!!!

One fine sunny day!

It feels like everyone I met already smiling and has gladness on their faces nowadays when the sun starts shining again and the snow were gone. Yesterday, was really one fine sunny day the whole day and it feels so good! My daughter, took out her bike again from the garage and weeee... she was so happy driving his bike again.

After few turns my aunt called us and informed us that we are welcome to visit them if we want. So, we had lunch together at their house and went outside enjoying the good weather while our husbands starts opening up again their swimming pool!

Oh! how good it is to have just simple shirts and soft pants on us once again. And free from those heavy jackets and all those winter gears;) Well, looking forward for the real summer now:) A bright new day ahead!Godspeed!

My little one on first trimester:)

Yesterday, was my first ultra sound, checking the possibilities and situation of the baby inside my body. Since I'm already in a 'good age', there are many risks and possibilities about the fetus. And therefore it is important to be check up every now and then.

I was a little worried when we were still going to the hospital. My mind was working so much. I got trauma after the last time I got an ultra sound and the doctor found the baby no longer there. That was horrible!

We arrived yesterday 15minutes before our time schedule but we were attained 15minutes late:) Between those 30 minutes waiting was full of fear and prayer:I Beside me was my husband and in some extent I also felt his tension! We just hold hands gesturing that everything gonna be alright!The time I laid down and the doctor starts the machine and all... Directly we saw my little one on the screen so active and moving so much! And when I talk and laugh, the baby also jumps, moving hands and feet. So amazing to see. Again, we had a teary eyed.

After examining everything, measuring every part... the doctor explained to us the results and the details. And we were so happy knowing that everything is alright with the baby and me. My heart rejoice in the LOrd!!!

CC- sweet gestures!

This week's Couple's Corner is about sweet gestures! So am thinking of just sharing this time some of our pictures that shows our sweetness to each other heheh. My husband originally don't like pictures of him. But when I came into his life who love so much of doing so..he became used to it. I find it very sweet of him letting me to have pictures together anytime. Thats why we have lots but just want to share few:)


Leaning unto him, as if throwing my whole body into his famn is my one best way to show my sweetness and he likes it too.
LOL... is the closed eyes because of the sweet feelings? or because of the heat of the sun...hahah!

Harboring me is his way of showing sweetness in return and I love this gesture of him towards me...soooo much!

Hahah..this looks like I want to carry him...waaahhh! how could it be possible..this is sweet I think!

Happy CC everyone! Keep the sweetness continue..kahit maputi na ang buhok natin..lol!
