My Dad gave me an 8-inch portable DVD player. Its one of the coolest gadgets I have so far. Batteries can last up to three hours and can be charged for only an hour. Included in the pack are headphones which have impressive sound quality, an ac adapter and an adapter for cars. Also there's a remote control. Coolness!!!

I'm now in the middle of  Lost Season 2. I missed this whole season on TV last year. Im a beach bum and miss the beach very much. So aside from the fact that watching the characters stranded on a beautiful beach makes me weirdly happy, this series is totally addictive. My Gadd! Sometimes I stay up to 3 a.m. because I can't stop watching. Now I find myself sleepy in the afternoon during work hours. That would be now. *yawn*

Anyway, thanks Fatherhood! I really like it! Now can I ask for a coffee maker  :-)

Cleaning the Christmas Clutter…and the Virtual Tsunami

Posted by Must Be That Girl! on Thursday, January 4th, 2007 @ 2:31 am in Personal - Philippines.

I have taken down the Christmas lanterns from my site now that Christmas season is officially over. At home, the task was more backbreaking (okay its exaggerated, but partly true). I don't know why when the decorations were set-up, I haven't noticed that it was a tiresome task. In fact, it was even enjoyable. But the cleaning-up after is another matter. It took twice as long to get the decorations and the lights back to their boxes than to put them up the tree. I can not understand why I seem to put items in the wrong boxes. Its frustrating actually. Okay, maybe in truth I am just lazy. hehehe... But my mother has this knack of not only matching items to their boxes, but she can even return them properly as if they have never been taken off from their individual boxes. Yeah, thats right. Much as I admire her for that, no please, I am happy being myself.
The year 2006 was good for me, but the opening salvo of 2007 was not quite welcoming. An earthquake in Taiwan brought havoc to internet connections, and our connections went dead. As of writing, although there have been sporadic connections and seeming normalcy, connecting to sites is still much slower than the usual normal speed. I have called Globelines probably a million times to air my frustrations, and switched back and forth from being glumly despondent to being a raving lunatic. I realized, Ahaa! these reactions clearly pointed out that my addiction for internet surfing and blogging is probably deeper than I thought. Got me into thinking that maybe it is time to re-evaluate my fondness for the wide world web. It is not my intention to go overboard. Therefore I decided to include in my new year's resolutions (there are none actually) to go easy on surfing and blogging. Thats all that I can say for now.

Elevators -- I'm claustrophobic.

I have difficulty breathing when I get on elevators specially when I'm alone. Humming a favorite tune helps.
The scariest is getting trapped in one during a power interruption. O gosh!
