SubscribeIm such a loser, I know. I havent watched any movie in a theater since 2005. 
LOL. For real! I dont watch that much DVD movies either. However, Id encourage the husband to buy a plasma TV for the house complete with home theater carpet if we get to have a family room. The kids love watching movies on DVD and the husband and I can just engage ourselves with catching up season per season of our favorite series.

Im one of the hundreds of people having problems with PayPal. I withdrew a substantial amount to my EON card on January 24 and February 1 respectively and my PayPal Account Withdrawal Status is still “Pending”. It usually changes to “Completed” within 24 hrs. At first, I thought it was just taking so long, however, I was so disheartened to read these threads:
E-bay Forum – PayPal Pending Withdrawal Problems
And furthermore, it seems to be spread world wide:
Digital Point 1
Digital Point 2
It is not as if I use the money for my luho, if you know what I mean. This seriously helps pay our bills. And what scares me the most is that based on threads, it takes a month before it gets credited back. (Still with withdrawal charges) – Daig pa nila ang Blogitive, LOL.
Im so freaking mad.

I have been googling, reading up ALL articles, downloaded the better episodes with subtitling and the soundstrack. Gawddamit. I even listed to the OST while cleaning. The husband laughs at my current obsession. I cannot stop watching episodes 10-17. Gawddamit.
Just an FYI, I havent been receiving comments to my e-mail lately, so Im late in approving and responding even. Do you guys have a quick fix to this problem? And it seems Akismet has been lax in protecting my blog from spam. I had to weed through a lot of spam comments to read the real ones (which were still many, thanks to you guys!).
Let me just get to my assigned tasks and reply to e-mails. I was without internet and well, just spent three days reliving Coffee Prince. Hhahahaha. And to keep myself accountable, here is what you can expect from me in the following days:
1. January Round Up
2. An ultra-mega resourceful post about Coffee Prince (and Gong Yoo), LOL. Im obssessed!
3. Some pictures.
4. A Bloggie Carnival.
5. And a nice little contest for my birthday month! I turn 2-7 in 12 days 
Do you have them? The proofs or what they call the badge of motherhood? Im talking about stretchmarks here!
Unfortunately, I have them in abundance. Blame it on genetics, because my Mom has them and blame it on weight gain. If you knew and saw me before I got pregnant with Matthew, you will really wonder how come I ever got this big!
You need to give me credit for trying to prevent stretch marks though. I have looked and read everywhere on where to find the best and most effective stretch mark cream and while there were many claims, they didnt carry proof that their stuff worked.
It was too late that I stumbled upon the Diva’s Blog (www.divas-blog.com). She had a post that had a test run on all popular stretch mark creams with before and after shots of it. She said that the revitol stretch mark cream is the most effective, thereby most recommended. She even goes to say that the cream needs to work on repairing collagen and improving the elasticity of the skin – which is why we mommies get stretch marks in the first place. She sure knows what to look for in the product so Im really intrigued with the product she recommended.
Let’s talk do some grocery talk here. How do you budget your grocery lists? Do you shop for groceries weekly or on a monthly basis? Food eats up a huge chunk of our monthly budget and if we bring the kids along to the grocery, it can easily shoot over the designated budget for groceries! Sometimes when I get to have time, I stick to my list (if I can make one) and literally peruse every aisle to look for better deals, coupons and savings. One thing I like about grocery shopping in the US though is the abundance of grocery coupons or even coupons for better (and bigger) savings in general. When you shop online, you can google for coupons to have discounts and you can easily find them. I stick to tried and proven free coupon sites though. One of them is MySavings.com.
Free Online Coupons is of abundance in this web site.
Free Stuff is even given away weekly. You are also guaranteed that coupons or discounts are always valid and updated. They have hundreds of links to real brand name free samples, free stuff, printable coupons, deals and savings. Enjoy premier free stuff in many different product categories; with great new free samples added weekly, including health and beauty products, food, make up, cosmetics, perfume, baby products and many more free samples.
Printable Grocery Coupons is one of the great amenities you can save with. You just need to sign up with them for FREE and they will give you free access to printable coupons, coupon codes, grocery coupons, online coupons, restaurant coupon vouchers, and even free samples!
Back to grocery talk. I really need advice here. I want to be able to efficiently grocery shop for the family. Do you do grocery shopping in bulk – meaning, you buy food, personal items (like toiletries) and household items in one go? Do you sign up with wholesale grocery shops (like Makro, S&R, Puregold)? What about food for menus? Do you buy them there or do a separate trip to the market? I need help and tips people!
Aside from endless house chores, I also am so hooked in watching Coffee Prince. So hooked, in fact, that I will troop to Quiapo without Edil so I can finally watch it on DVD. I cannot stand being “bitin” everynight. It has been doing some damages to my dreams. LOL.
What’s keeping you busy?
