catching up again!
Friday, April 14, 2006
I've been staring at my monitor for a good five minutes. I haven't written anything in here for such a long time that I think I've forgotten how to. LOL! Isn't that silly? I think I'm suffering from blogger's block.
Anyhoo, I'm home!!! Obviously. LOL!!! I got home Thursday night last week, then we had our company outing over the weekend, so I'm finally able to settle down this week. Whew.
Well, Malaysia and Indonesia was such an amazing experience! Hmmmm...actually, the training program was the amazing experience since I hardly saw the two countries. LOL!!! Yeah, it was one of those trips again where the only part of the country I see is the one from my hotel room window. Ok, so maybe not THAT bad, but I didn't really get a chance to go around. But professionally, WOW. It was the pilot rollout of the training we previously designed, and it was such a huge hit! I've met so many outstanding people, and working alongside country business managers and senior managers was such a high! I'm hoping that I can tag along when this program is rolled out in the other countries in Asia Pacific, because really, it's just so enriching.
On the homefront, Mr. S and I will be celebrating our first year anniversary end of this month. Woohoooo!!! I can't believe it's been a year already. I've been annoying Mr. S for pretty much an entire year now. LOL!!! And he lives! I married an amazing man, I tell ya. We were thinking of taking a trip, but we decided to push it back to maybe September so we can save up for it. Instead, Mr. S and I are checking in a hotel for a weekend extravaganza! hahahahahaha!!! We were talking about it a few nights ago, like how much we love hotels. The huge and fluffy pillows, the soft and fluffy sheets, the think and fluffy robes...lots of fluffy stuff...hahaha! Room service. Hot water 24 hours a day. The free toiletries. Ooooh ooooh! And the best part we love is that we can make an absolute mess, leave it, and by the time we're back, everything is spic and span again. Aaaaahh, I really love hotels. LOL!!!
I took a 2-day leave from the office, so I was out Tuesday and Wednesday. Thursday and Friday are holidays, so that gives us a looong weekend. Thank goodness, because I know I need the rest and the scrapping time! I haven't scrapped in 2 weeks, and I finally cranked out a page today. Woohoooo!!! Before I went on my trip, I finished most of my assignments so lemme show you my pre-trip stuff first.

Isn't Chloe just the cutest?!?! I took these photos when we celebrated her daddy's birthday and we all had dinner here at home. She's such a character! Totally love her to pieces!!! The page with the polaroids is a good friend of mine, Gian. I took those photos at work, and I just kept snapping while he made those goofy poses. Teehee!
And here's the page I finished today...

And that's not all because I also managed to finish a kit today!!!
This is Forest Nymph, and the kit will be a prize in one of the challenges or chats next month over at RAKScraps, so hop on over there and get in on all the fun! Remember my Tubby Hubby kit? It was used as a prize for the Easter egg hunt which Deb posted, and everyone had such a ball looking for those darn tokens! Some people even sent me private messages, saying how much fun they had and how much they love the kit. *sigh* Warm fuzzies galore!!!
Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh!!! If you've seen my past kits and missed out on getting them, you can actually head on over to Scrapdish to buy them! Nope, I'm not selling...YET!...but I donated them to the Day Old Donuts section of the store so that all the proceeds will be used to maintain RAKScraps. I have 2 kits in there so far, but I'll be sending over the rest this weekend, I hope. Hell, I'm not even really sure if people will actually buy my kits! LOL!!! But hey, it's the thought that counts, right? Teehee!
Ok, I think I gotta hit the sack soon. We're spending the day with Mr. S's folks tomorrow in Tagaytay (which is about an hour and a half drive), and we have to be there by breakfast. Yikes.
Take care, bellas!
