I finished my last slimming session this morning and I was lighter by 5 lbs!  I should say it is a good achievement already.  Thank goodness it was working so I don’t need to take some diet pills anymore like Phentermine. I hope it won’t go back soon so I enrolled again for another 15 sessions.  For those of you are curious, hot wrap is being used in the salon.  It is Vigen Slimming Salon along Wilson St., Greenhills.  Ok, so I divulged already my secret.  I’m targetting to lose 15 more pounds cause I want to go back to my pre-wedding figure!  Now, that’s a big wish.   

Yes, I think we are 100% sure already to spend the holidays in the US this year so I’m overly excited.  Ok, let’s pray I won’t get pregnant this year!   Please spare me from the baby dust so we can push through with the trip.  And since the brother of hubby is also moving from Alabama to Reno, we are also considering to check some reno hotels.  We also plan to drop by Sanfo again to visit some friends.  Ah, 3 weeks will be too short!

Got this tag from Thea. This is interesting.

I’m a slug:

Always up to some sort of a mischief! The mischievous gleam in your eyes is what mak e s you so cute and attractive to everyone. You are an extremely fun-to-be-with kind of person. No wonder people seek your company and look forward to include you for all get-together’s. However, you are sensitive which is a drawback. People need to select their words while talking to you. If someone tries to fiddle around and play with words while dealing with you, it is enough to invite your wrath. God bless the person then!

If you are an Ass : A very loyal and sweet person. Your loyalty can never be doubted. You are quite honest and sincere when it comes to your attitude towards working. You are a very simple person, indeed. Absolutely hassle free, humble, and down-to-earth!! That explains the reason why your friends cling on to you! You have a good taste for clothes. If your wardrobe is not updated with what is trendy, you sure are depressed. Popular and easy-going. You have a little gr! oup of dignified friends, all of them being quality-personified.
If you are a Slug : Always up to some sort of a mischief! The mischievous gleam in your eyes is what mak e s you so cute and attractive to everyone. You are an extremely fun-to-be-with kind of person. No wonder people seek your company and look forward to include you for all get-together’s. However, you are sensitive which is a drawback. People need to select their words while talking to you. If someone tries to fiddle around and play with words while dealing with you, it is enough to invite your wrath. God bless the person then!
If you are a Cockroach : Quite contradictory to your name, you are a peace loving person. You best try to avoid a situation wherein you are required to fight. An outdoor person, you dislike sitting at one place for a long duration. You are a born leader, and have it in you how to tactfull! y deriv e work from people. You love being loved and when you receive your share of limelight from s omeone, you are all theirs!!!! Well, well… Hence some people could even take an advantage, flatter you to the maximum and get their work done. So be careful…..
If you are a Parasite : An extremely lovable, adorable person, sometimes shy, with a passion for quick wit. At times, you prefer quietness. You love exploring various things and going into depth of each thing. Under normal circumstances you’re cool but when given a reason to, you are like a volcano waiting to erupt. You’re a fashion bird. People look forward to you as an icon associated with fashion. Basically, you mingle along freely but don’t like talking much to strangers. People feel very easy in your company. You observe care in choosing your friends.
If you are a Skunk : You are near to perfect and nice at heart! . The e xamples of your kindness are always circulated in groups of people. You, too, love peace. You wouldn’t like to retaliate even to a person who is in the wrong. You are loved due to this. You do not wish to talk behind one’s back. People love the way you always treat them. You can give, give, and give love, and the best part is that you do not expect it back in return. You are generous enough. Seeing things in a practical light is what remains the best trait of you guys.
If you are a Bullfrog : You symbolize a very happy-go-lucky approach in life. Whatever the surroundings may be, grim or cheerful, you remain unaffected. In fact, you spread cheer wherever you go. You are the leader of your group of fri ends! and go od at consoling pe ople in their times of need. You dislike hypocrisy and tend to shirk away from hypocrites. They can never be in your good books, no matter what. You are very methodical and organized in your work. No amount of mess, hence, can ever encompass you. Beware, it is easy for you to fall in love….
If you are a Snake : You are mysterious. You are someone who can handle pressure with ease, and can handle any atmosphere without going berserk. You can be mean at times, and love to gossip with your selected group. Very prim and proper. You like all situations and things to be in the w! ay you desire, which, sometimes is not possible. As a result, you may lose out in some relationships. But otherwise, you love to help people out from difficult and tight spots when they really need you.
If you are an Ape : Very impatient and hyper!!! You want things to be done as quick as possible. At heart, you are quite simple and love if you are the center of attraction. That way, you people are unique. You would like to keep yourself safe from all the angles. Shall your name be dragged or featured in any sort of a controversy, you then go all panicky. Therefore, you take your precautions from the very beginning. When you foresee anything wrong, your sixth sense is what saves you from falling in traps. Quite a money minded bunch you people are.

Tell me what you are Jacqui and Jane and Nol.  

Thanks to Kelly for this tag. Really need such things like this to sustain the rating! Hehehe

Rule #1: Copy all the links below and replace a single link under the appropriate letter of the alphabet. If your domain name, or even the title of your blog, starts with an “A,” you’d replace the link under that letter and put the replaced link at the bottom. Also, don’t forget to credit the tagger, or where you got the list from, at the end of the list with a full URL of the post so that a pingback gets generated.

Rule #2: You now have to “tag” at least five people and encourage them to participate. Remember, though, that not everyone is into these kinds of things, so don’t be upset if they don’t participate. Just simply replace your tag. Remember to tag blogs only and no pornographic ones as we do want to keep the integrity as a blogging community.

Passing this to Chat, Eds, Mich, Nyree and Pheng.  Thanks girls!

What would you do with your life if you had the luxury of no longer working for a living?  This is a big question which I wish to encounter in some years from now.  Don’t you think it is a promising question which we all like to consider?  I guess investing properly is the key and making sure that you have a retirement plan that can work out for you and your whole family.  It is important to plan ahead and that is what my husband and I have been doing.  We make sure that we go by our excel files everytime.  It was a thought also why we didn’t want to push ourselves in constructing the house this year if we are not totally ready.  We are confident risk-takers so we should know our contigencies.  In few years from now, we would consider to get a financial advisor who is willing to give us personal financial planning services.  There are organizations which I believe we can trust on this matter like for example The Northen Trust, which is a global leader in investment management, asset and fund administration.  I believe entrusting all assests would be very essential in achieving our life-long dream to retire early and just enjoy life at its best.  

What do they say again about using a toothpaste without flouride?  I just came from the groceries and in the list given by the maid it says:  toothpaste for the kids.  When I went to the toothpaste section, I came to realize that I have been buying sansflo for the longest time.  I saw other toothpaste there for kids and I cannot decide which one to buy.   What are you using for your kids mommies?  The kids are due to see a dentist soon.  I should ask as well. 

My friend who recently resigned from work would like to check health insurance options as a voluntary member since she won’t have that employee benefit anymore starting next month.  She has been asking me for recommendations and to help her out in choosing the right company.  She would like to consider a family insurance.  I wish there’s like a Kaiser Permanente California site in the country where I can just refer my friend to easily help her in deciding among the different policies available.  With Kaiserquotes.com, one can have the advantage of  getting online health insurance quotes in the privacy of your own home.  Kaiser Permanente has been in business for 40 years so anyone who is based in California can be assured of getting the most competitive pricing available in their area. Such site is a good help for someone like my friend.

Thanks to Thea for this.
