Blog Challenge: Do you have a hobby? Do I have a hobby? Hmmm. Is staring at the ceiling considered a hobby? LOL! I used to have several hobbies. Needleworks were one of the hobbies I’ve had when I was a lot younger. You name it: crocheting, knitting, cross stitch – I’ve done it before. I know I still have a folder stashed somewhere at home that contains my cross stitch patterns and a container for my threads. Another hobby that I’ve had a few years ago was pocketbook reading. Something with light plots that either dulls your brain or makes […]

Blog Challenge: What do you do when you’re home all alone? Well, I’ve never really been home alone ever since I gave birth. But before that, I used to be home all alone most of the time. If it is a weekday, what I normally do is sleep. Well, channel surf, check facebook, check emails, chat with a few friends who are still online during wee hours in the morning then sleep before the sun rises. During weekends, well, that depends on my mood. When I didn’t have any scheduled night out on that weekend, I usually sleep the day […]

Blog Challenge: What’s your biggest fear? We all have our own fears, I would think. Even the riskiest person would have his own fear, only he chooses to overcome the fear. Being the control freak that I am, I would say that my biggest fear would be the unknown. I don’t like not knowing what will happen. I don’t like not being prepared at some point. It’s not like I fear the unknown to the point of going paranoid. And thinking of the unknown would not really scare me to the point of freezing and not able to move. And […]

Blog Challenge: What do you collect? Over the years, I have collected several things. One of the earliest collections I’ve had was the stamps. I got interested in it when I was back in grade school, I think, because of a field trip that we went to. I cannot remember what the trip was all about. All I can remember was that I bought a couple of stamps. And that started my collection. I got all the mails that my Mom kept and cut out the stamps. I think I had about almost 200 stamps collected. Now that I think […]

Blog Challenge: 5 Blogs you read on a regular basis and why Nowadays, I don’t have that much time to really follow blogs on a regular basis given all the tasks that I need to do. But here are a few of the blogs that I read on every now and then: 1) http://mylittlepirate.wordpress.com I was searching for information about cataract glasses when I found this blog. I started following the blog because it is about an infant’s journey with congenital cataract. My son has the same condition so I found this blog full of insights of what I can […]

Blog Challenge: Where are you happiest? If you asked me this question about a year ago, I would probably say “anywhere but here”, where here is defined as the place where I am currently living for a period of time. I am a restless person and would rather be going places rather than staying in just one place. Once I get restless, I have to getaway. I have to go somewhere. If I have been cooped in at home for a few days, going to the mall is enough to make me happy. Anything that will change my current environment. […]

Blog Challenge: Why and When did you start blogging? Geez, I think I have been blogging for more than ten years now. I have had several blogs over the years. I cannot remember the very first one that I had though. Then there was one blog site that I had before (the site shut down early this year after trying to fully convert the site to an online shopping site). For the longest time, I maintained a blog with Multiply.com. If the site is still alive today, I would probably still use that. The very first one I created as […]

Blog Challenge: What’s your biggest accomplishment? I really don’t take note of the things that I accomplish. Well, not consciously, anyway. Especially for those “accomplishments” that really makes a difference. For me, to say that I have accomplished something would mean that I have made an impact in some sort of over-all scheme (Note as previously mentioned: high expectations of myself). I think I could say that my being able to be independent is my the biggest accomplishment, so far. When I moved out of the house and ventured on my own into the chaotic corporate world, I was living […]

Blog Challenge: What’s on your iPod? I barely have an hour and a half before this day ends this side of the world. I was planning on posting Day 14 around noon but then, I woke up after lunch. Then we went to the grocery to buy supplies and to get something for the relief operations we have at work. So, anyway, first thing: I don’t own an iPod and I have never had one. It’s not necessarily because I can’t afford to get one, I just never thought of buying one for myself. I guess it is because I […]

Blog Challenge: Do you have regret? This is a hard question to answer for me. And I have to be careful in how I answer this because I may say something that I would probably regret later on and it would add to the list of things that I regret. Not that the list is that long, anyway. I think. So, do I have regrets? I guess at some point in life, we all regret something. Could be something that we said, something that we did, something that we did not say or did not do. You wouldn’t really know […]
