tagged =)

been rather off the blogging world as of late. not because of work or anything but due to plain laziness. haha anyway, my blog assignments have piled up and i think i ought to start accomplishing them before i get tagged again. as of the moment, i've already been tagged twice. well make it three, the first one, i actually requested. hehe so to annamanila, here are my answers to your questions. 

1. Your beautiful baby boy has just been placed on your throbbing bosom. What will be the first thing you will tell him (as you know he would surely understand, the newborn that he is). 

- I really do not how its going to be when i first hold him in my arms. I guess I'd be kissing his chubby cheeks while I utter a prayer of thanksgiving because the Lord entrusted me with something so precious.

2. There is time for everything and for everything there's a season. How would you call or name or describe this very season you ae exeriencing right now.

- Right now my husband and I are experiencing a season of waiting. Everything seems to be on hold. We're waiting for God's word on a lot of things. It seems that God will reveal his will to us, (career wise, financial and spiritual) all together once the baby comes out. 

3. As you choose your baby's name, you also decide to choose a second name for yourself — what will these two names be?

- The baby's first name is Paul, we wanted to pick a name that's biblical. My husband wanted to go for the name Peter but Peter has been rebuked by Jesus several times and I feel that Paul's testimony is more inspiring. Thus the name Paul. I'm not quite sure about picking a second name for myself so I guess I wont be able to answer that. hehe

4. Summer is scorching for all of us here in Pinas. How much more was it for a lady 6-7 months preggie. How did you cope?

- There is only one way we know how. hehe My husband has no choice but to spoil me and keep the air-conditioner day in and day out. The only down side to it is the sky-rocketing electric bill monthly. hehe 

5. The grass is greener at the other side of the fence. By same token, the fish that got away also seem fatter. Myth/illusion both — don't you think?

- I used to believe that, and sometimes I'm still tempted to think of it that way. But carrying this child in my womb, I'm actually glad that some people got away.

Well  that is the first tag i will answer, it sure is fun since the questions were very personalized. I will give you guys a chance to be interviewed as well..

When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

7 Random Things about me

I was tagged by ate marie yesterday. When I read through her list and that of ate girlie, it seems easy. However now that I'm thinking about it, I couldn't even come up with one. hmmm… esep esep… okay so here goes…. Sorry I can't seem to upload pics here from our desktop at home.

1. I'm a blog nomad. Couldn't remember exactly how many blogs I've had, I had several at blogspot, one at blogdrive, two at tblog, and somewhere else. I certainly hope to stay here though.

2. I'm absolutely clueless about make up. I have a couple of high end make ups sent to me by relatives in the states but I almost always end up giving it as gifts to other people. One time I bought a blush on at body shop but its still stuck somewhere in my drawer, unopened.

3. I once wanted to have a second name. When I was back in pre-school, I noticed that majority of my classmates has 2 or 3 names. hehe inggitera.

4. Last year I've read 25 books - a variety of novels and self help books even childrens books. I have this pact with myself that I should be able to finish one book per month. This year though, I've only managed to read 3 books to date. So lazy! Could it be that I'm having a baby boy? hehe

5. I dont follow trends, I'm actually a trend snob. Back in high school, I'm so into the Corrs band right before they became really famous. I wanted to buy a copy of their cd but wasn't able to do so right away. When I found out that one of my friends bought a copy of their cd, i decided i dont want it anymore. Same thing happened with freestyle. Then when I was much younger, I noticed that everyone who eats at fastfoods would go for choco fudge sundae, so I decided that even if I like chocolate, I'd go for strawberry sundae. Made me furious when Mcdonalds decided to phase it out.

6. I'm a net addict. I could stay in front of the monitor the whole day and still be very contented. I'd rather stay at home and read through peoples blogs, browse through different websites than to hang out in the mall. But if it's going out of town, I'd happily forget about the net. Well, wi-fi is available in a lot of places now so that will work for me since I could bring my laptop.

7. I've long decided not to use Nokia for my handphone. I guess this is in line with number 5. Mostly because everyone is using Nokia and another thing is that if you're using one, everyone has a pretty good idea of how much your phone costs.

Well that's it folks. Thanks ate marie for tagging me. Now it's my turn to tag people.

I'm tagging…
