what T/B means?

July 18, 2010

I was scanning houses for sale on the internet, and i came across the description ‘T/B’. I was like— stuck, analyzing… eyebrows met. WHAT?

OH yeah, one description said —’toilet and bath’… well, duh?! I know what THAT is, just forgot to cross my mind. pfff! ehehehe.

TOILET AND BATH: thats the usual bathroom setup we have here in the philippines. 

I remembered lolo (grandpa) told us on his first visit in Zamboanga, that he rarely bathe cause it was cold where he lives(alaska),  and that they need heater to warm the water.

We dont warm our water here… well some part of the country need to warm their water during cold days. and yes, almost all the hotels here have water heater system installed in every room, how did I know this? ahahaha. done some research LOL) 

So I was thinking- maybe, if youre not from here, you might be wondering what our bathroom setup is? well its usually like this

toilet and bath… what you see here is the the room where you take your dump and the one where you take a bath. the lighted room over there is the latter.

 

usually we install shower on wall in the bathroom, but we dont use it often… what we use is a pail and a dipper. 

 

    

 we also install toilet bowl that has flush system, but again we just use a pail and a dipper with that.

Some of the homes, like the old master’s bathroom we have, however are like this>> (google images)

 

 

 

 

  *we just install this shower heater near the bathtub, then take shower on the bathtub rightaway, just hard to clean bathtub afterwards, the soap suds and ringful of hair and dirt on the drain. ew.. our home is on top of the hill, and we have cold mornings… so we have to have this.

 

how to deal?

July 11, 2010

“….. Life is so stressful sometimes, i wish i could just leave everything behind and live the dreams i always wish i had.”

I remember my lola said to~ say ‘thank you’ for something I have received, no matter how small it is.

I became a poet that day… I go out and say thank you to all that I see and like. its a wonderful feeling.

Now — I am losing it. I am becoming the ungrateful bitch that I hated. ehehehe.

I hate complaining… I hear that on my husband all the time. especially hating it when he blasted it before going to sleep and / or during cuddle time! grrrr. it makes my day –BLAHHHHND. He’s not the only one. I can be guilty with this too. sometimes. LOL (deny effect)

He does the complaining for me… even when hes not there. weird huh??? right! for example, one time, I accidentally ruined my oh so white, oh so clean rubber shoes with mud stains (courtesy of typhoon basyang), then i hear his nagging voice inside my head– disgusted and with disbelief. well, you try to be with the guy for almost 7 years.

and Im usually the one wholl try to look for a solution. or~ill just ask him to ignore whatever that may be and just- deal with it. period. hmppffs…. so he’ll stop for a while. then back with it again. haays.

Those who complain a lot- i would advise them that…. WE- should be grateful… grateful in what we HAVE right now….and that- we don’t live on streets, that we eat three times a day,… and to my husband: that we have internet connection (for our bisyo).. and that we have still have enough money for desserts. I mean! please! stop complaining! I am beginning to feel every possible stress that comes my way when I shouldnt be. (one one thousand, two one thousand…)…. whew!

Money is to be blame…. and people who invented things that we dont need. Unlike before, we just deal with ‘the three basic needs’ of men. Now, we have to have cellphones, laptops, pc,cars… all those luxuries that you can think of. whew! money.. money… money…

SAYING THANK YOU: I am grateful to have a family and friends who say thank you when theyre given. because of that, i think, we are easily entertained/amused, and by that-  we keep relationships in a positive way. and we know the value of saying thank you to people and to GOD. It can do a lot, just by saying thank you. Some people here dont know how to say it, or what it can do to the one who gives or receives it, or why they have to say it.

but– I admit, I failed to send some “Thank you cards” to those I owe it with. SORRY! weheheheh

Hypocrisy? To you. I prefer to think of it as a ‘good upbringing’.

to call my own

I would love to design my own house and perhaps I will when we get one.  But for now, all I can do is to imagine and dream it up in my head. Yesterday afternoon, we went to Glorietta mall in the HOME ZONE area… I was inspired by their wood design. Some showcase look better because of their lighting effect. Lights can really do good in a room. I poined it out to my husband (who is forced to listened to everything that I have to say on that time cause hed rahter be in the entertaiment system area). I tend to lean towards the minimalistic contemporary asian design. I like it clean and easy to clean set of furnitures and linens.

I wouldnt like furnitures that occupy the room much. It’ll not be called a room if it doenst have a room, just bunch of old junks that you dont need, gifts from your mother, friends, birthday, wedding, etc.. and I guess they would understand why. and besides, Im still clumsy and big space for me is a big thing. 

next big thing for me is contemporary asian. i like the wood/hemp work of the furniture and its practicality. I like to put some bonsai it more asian 

 

in this picture, its a classic example of contemporary asian. the divider looks like a japanese wall right? and the furniture here is modern but it looks a bit uncomfy.   i like the open space however, I also like the idea of light coming from the outside making the room looks spacious and sleek. these pictures are taken from google by the way. 

  i also love the combination of indoor and outdoor, i may need to do some research though if i m planning to have this design, cause i have to consider storms and thieves. LOL

  i would like to paint the walls darker then put some light treatment on it. then voila! 

 

hmmm. i just wish i have lots and lots of money. hmmm. TTFN!

my day… close to its end

Is it sunday already?  It doesn’t seem like— time has flown by– so fast when you dont have a job. Everybody else else is working. this is not good! ahahah. just woke up early this noon, and probably end my usual sunday in the middle of the night, wasting my time waiting for GG host to start the game.

UGH!  I know its bad to waste time, cause time is gold. have to pay the bills and rent, shit! if i still have discipline in me, i shouldve study my ass off. to tell you the truth, I got a little jealous when I see people from my college on fb enjoying their life working and living abroad. I just dont have the chance and luck- i guess, because Ive been a very bad girl. hmmmp! (up until now)

Manny’s birthday is almost here, I ran out of ideas for his gift. any suggestions? i wanted it to be special and unique. I was thinking chocolate cakes, cause he loooves chocolates and —chocnut. maybe a chocolate cake with nuts.

Well, I am off to bed now.  I have started my day in fb just a couple of hours ago. Im kinda tired from our date yesterday at the mall. my feet still sore and back pain still there. So, I am off to bed now! attempting to get a power nap until manny comes home. maybe he’ll ask me to go window shopping again later. so ciao!

TTFN (tah-tah-for- now)
