Searching for a House for Rent




The whole day was spent searching for a house for rent. Yea I know, I know, public transportation is on strike today and will end til midnight. But the eagerness to find a new haven for us makes me hard-headed again. Well, we've been searching for a studio-type to rent for almost 2 days already. A studio-type home because it'll only be Bendyk, hubby and me who will be staying there. We're not that big to occupy the entire space at home so it'll be more practical to choose a not-so-big home.

But we didn't find any at Barriada so even if it's raining, hubby and I walked straight to Our Lady's Village, wishing to finally find a studio-type home. You see, we have to leave this house even though it's so big and fully furnished for us. There are just some people who are so "makakapal" to stay here even if they are not welcome anymore. These two people do wear thick faces to stick and stay here despite the fact that I am sending them away of this house since they aren't actually renting here and the fact that the woman is supposed to be with her kids whom she left at her mom's custody which I just knew days ago. And worst, mom is the one feeding them since the man has no more job. D'oh! Well, mom can't send them away 'cause she's always the hospitable woman I know. Arrrggghhh! It's a different story! So better get out of this house before I blow fire again! I am trying to hold my temper, but staying here for a few more days would certainly provoke me to give them a new set of hit! Darn! Uber sa kapal!

How I wish we could have our home which we can call our own. Sigh! When will riches knock on us? I just wish hubby can already have his promised house and lot from her aunt. Well, it'll take two more years I guess and it'll be in a faraway land, right within the vicinity of their farm-resort in Silang, Cavite. Waaah! Super layo naman nun sa kabihasnan. ==> : (

But we need a home now. And I mean it ASAP. Luckily, as we walked through Our Lady's Village today, we found that "House 4 Rent" posted on the tree. And good thing, the landlord as well as his family is hospitable to let us rent the house. It wasn't actually a big one as compared to this house we currently stay in. I guess it's only half of the size of this house. But it's already good for us. It has 1 bedroom, living room, kitchen, dining space, and comfort room. We also have our own small gate and the windows have screens and grills. And the monthly rent, which is 2,500php is not that expensive so it'll be easy on our pocket. Practicality has to be with us these days especially that the prices of products and even services are gradually increasing to our dismay.


So tomorrow will be another "lipat-bahay" scene. Hayyyzz!

A Wifey Momma Wannabee...

It's the 15th of April, the effectivity date of my resignation from my previous work. Yea, I decided to leave my job and in the meantime would try my best to be a "wifey momma". It's so strange that for over 2 years of becoming a mom, I never been an ideal mom to my kiddo and a good wife to my hubby. I'm not so sure of this, but I guess it's quite true.

Anyhoo, I started the day cleaning the house, rearranging stuffs from one corner to another and so far it feels good to touch them once again. You see, I've always been a frustrated interior designer so expect everything inside the house to be rearranged once a week or at least twice a month. It makes me feel oh so damn goood!

Done with the general cleaning and assisted my prince bendyk in his milky bubble bath. My prince looks fresh again so I turned on the TV so he could watch his anticipated fave show, wowowee. While the wifey momma went to the kitchen to cook for our lunch. Hubby is at work so no one would cook for Bendyk and me. (sigh!) I found fresh longaniza and was confused on how to cook it the right way. I forgot to ask hubby about it before he left.

Well, I imagined how it looks like when cooked so I figured out the procedures. I washed the longaniza first before putting them on the pan. And then I half-filled the pan with water, and put it in the stove, covered them and waited for a few minutes until the water boiled. I picked every piece of longanizas and sliced each into thin pieces. After that, I put a little cooking oil in an empty pan, put the longanizas on it, sprinkled a pint of sugar to caramelize and put them on the stove. I tossed and turned them on the pan so they won't get burned.

And after a few minutes...



My specialty for today...taraaan!

When you try to look at it closely, you'll notice that some part are a 'lil burned. I found out that cooking this kind of dish sticks on the pan so I had to gather extra effort just to toss and turn them. About the taste, well...I must admit that it doesn't taste good. It's some kinda sour and a bit sweet. I dunno if the problem is with my cooking or the mixture of the one who made it. Sigh! Better luck next time christelle, hehehe!

After lunch, cleaned the table and washed the dirty dishes on the sink, I took a bath and interact once again with my techie-buddy. I have a lot of online work to do. You see, I resigned from my job, but it doesn't mean that I don't work anymore. I deal with data entry, social marketing, and monetized blogging so expect me to be busy everyday like when I was still working in a real office.

Show Your Love for Oldies

I felt pity for the oldies, especially those who sit on the sidewalk to ask for alms. Deep inside me, I feel like crying for them. I hate seeing them who at that age is still suffering from poverty. It made me wonder how their families feel towards them. Do they care for them? Perhaps, their families are also in poverty so they can’t find means to care for these oldies. Only if I have the richness, I would not hesitate to help them and provide them with nursing homes.

How about me? That question bothers me sometime. What will happen to me when I get old like them? Will my loved ones shower me with care which I will surely need at that age. Although we still adapt that close-family-tie, I still worry a lot thinking of the possibility of being neglected when you are already old.

As I visit this site, all my worries faded as I was able to learn more about caring for loved ones. This site provides a dedicated service that taught me things regarding the issue. In the next few years, some of my loved ones will get their white hair on their head. Should that time come, I am pretty sure that they will get the love and care from their dearest young, like me.

How about you? Do you also wish to have an easy flowing life even at old age? Well, that could always be possible. Learn more about caring for old ones as you visit the site. It has great news for you and to many others.

Insurance You Never Want to Miss

I’ve got so many plans ever since and I fervently wish to fulfill them soon. Owning a car so we can go many miles away from home will always be possible, a house to shelter us all throughout since we have been moving from one roof to another, and many others. But come to think of it, achieving all these would be impossible in just one click of my fingers. They seem so far from what I have been thinking at this time.

The Best Dishwasher

It’s been awhile since I’ve gotten my hands on dishwashing. The busy me would often walk out of the house without washing the dishes, and would come home with still the same routine. Dishwashing is not a tough one though, but my hectic schedule doesn’t permit me to do some of the household chores. And since I took a leave for 3 days plus 2 days off from work, I told myself that it’s about time to try my hands on these stuffs once again.

Yesterday was really a tiring day for me. After cleaning the bedroom up to the living room, I then began clearing all the mess in the sink. I made sure that every detail was mess-free. And I felt so proud that after thirty minutes of dealing with all these tiresome mess, I can now say that I am a real best dishwasher. It really feels great to see that everything in your home is at its best.

If dishwashing isn't your cup of tea, well you better think again. With wize.com, dishwashing doesn't have to be a tough chore, it will actually make you wiser when you decided to grab on one of their dishwashers. Sounds confusing? Check out the site to see it for yourself.
