Almost 30 and I am Ashamed
Yes indeed I am my mother’s daughter but unlike her I am no expert in cooking or running an entire household!
When I was a child, I was very sickly. I was always absent from school and visited the clinic almost every month. And because of that, my old brother and sisters are tasked to do all the household chores and even take care of me.
Well, many think it was definitely a great excuse for me not to do home chores. I did so too when I was still a child. I thought it was a privilege beyond my imagination. When I started to gain maturity and especially I got married, I wished a different scene had happened. How I wished my mom have taught me how to cook and efficiently run the house from top to bottom. I have realized that those kinds of trainings are the one I should have not missed. I should have “ACED IT” like my brother and my sisters.
Since I can’t bring back the time, I am now stuck here with limited cooking and cleaning abilities. I am almost 30 and I am ashamed that I could not cook for my loved ones when they have special occasions. I can cook basic viand like anything fried, grilled and some simple Filipino dishes but I couldn’t do more. As for cleaning, I can do basic things but as for techniques in making everything slate clean I am a failure.
Anyway, though I am entering the world of the 30’s, I am still in the process of learning. I hope it’s not too late to become the best mom and wife my children and my hubby could have. And I hope, I can teach my children how to do these things too so that someday they wouldn’t regret like me.
Where o Where?
Got a new domain, and now missing in action? Oh no no no! I am just around. Actually I left my hometown Cagayan de Oro last Wednesday, March 25, and arrived at my second home Bacolod City around late evening of March 26, Thursday. I was pretty exhausted with the travel because of the delay the passenger vessel has caused us, so I opted to rest from my other blogs for awhile until I was able to get a grip with reality at hand.
Anyway, my children, my nephew and I arrived safely. We are all just fine and now I am back blogging! So, what did I miss?
Sweet Flowery Scent
When I was a child vacationing at my cousin’s house in Manila, I came across a sweet smelling perfume. It was the first time I admire such scent. I could not forget the name; it was Anais Anais by Cacharel. The scent was flowery and sweet. It was like depicting a scent of an innocent and beautiful princess. Since then, I always wished that someday I could afford to buy one.
Now, I am still admiring the sweet flowery scent. Though I am not sure I could afford to buy one as of now. Anyway, I am hoping Scent.net will be offering Anais Anais by Cacharel at special discounts when they open. I am excited!
Finally A Domain!
Yes guys! I have finally bought a domain and migrated to WordPress. So, you can head and visit my old-new blog at www.lourdesmia.com.
And hey, guess what! I am planning to maintain this blog. Maybe I could not update as always like before but still I like keeping this…of course until I like keep it. LOL!!
Tips Before Applying for a Credit Card
I have four credit cards. I am not really proud of it because I am not a master of personal finance management. To be honest, I maybe one of the worst case there is! Anyway, I don’t have anyone to blame except my dear self. If I have just given time to study and learn the ropes of credit card usage, I might have not been in this financial trouble.
Well, I am not saying credit card is bad but what I am trying to say that if you lack knowledge on the terms and conditions of the credit card being offered, you might end up in the wrong place. Aside from that, if you don’t use credit wisely, you might end paying more than what you can spend.
So, if you are planning to get a credit card, you must know certain facts about it. You must have full knowledge of the terms and conditions and the benefits it has to offer. Take a closer look if that credit card is what you need or it fits your lifestyle before applying for one.
To help you understand about credit cards and the features it has to offer, visit www.dealsforcreditcards.com. They have a wide array of credit card lists. Not only that but they also feature the benefits of each credit card. They also have articles available that can help you understand how to use credit cards wisely and searching for the best credit card. So I suggest, check there site first before applying for one.
