Different types of people # 1 "the perfect one"


Sometimes I wonder how some people destroy other people's lives and make it a living hell in their own mediocre way. Right sis?!!! Come on! The world we live in is far from perfection but why some people born to be so Freakin' perfect?! So scary?!!.......... NOT!! I just felt bad for the little ones that they think they can play and bullied. Well, Guess what? For those all of you unkind-perfect-self centered bastards. You're just doing this because you have your own insecurities hiding under your skin and tried to just let people show that your far better from the others.

Go ahead ask your parents? Why were you like that? or maybe go back in time, check how you were brought in this world, Are your parents too good too be true? or maybe they were just like the ordinary parents who love their children so much, It's just that you've placed yourself in the box thinking that it would be better if you will just follow your own rules, in your own smart-ass world. I'm sorry. I'm not perfect. excuse me for my words. Ok here's the thing. You are human, unless you were from planet-X trying to pretend that you are one of us. GotchA! LOL!

This is just my opinion alright, I got bunch of semi-perfect, crazy, mute, lazy-asses, too much too handle, normal, abnormal friends as well. We all have that, right? These kind of people were all both acceptable and unacceptable in this world. And we still love them for that. Now those people who find this post like a bullet that went straight right into your head, or you just want to correct my poor English and make this article a "mistake-free" Then you are probably Sheldon of the big bang theory. But even Sheldon is loved by his wonderful geeky friends. Why? because everyone has a soft side. So yes there is still hope.
Hey you!! you got served!

I miss my baby


It's been two weeks since I last posted. My nanny quit last week and I have to work and take care of my kids more than everb. It was really tiring but It was all worth it. The only problem was that every night I have to leave them to my parent's house and then pick them up in the morning. It was kind of hard to do this everyday. But this is for my kids sake.

My husband decided to ask my mother-in-law to take care of our youngest, It was ok, I have nothing against it. We used to do that with my eldest before, when she was younger. It's just that this would be the first time for my youngest to be away with me for a very long time. So I felt very sad and I missed him already. Sometimes I wish I'm not working. or I will just stay at home. But that wouldn't be helpful to us financially. SO yes, I'll just pray to GOd that he would take care of us. I miss Eouri so much WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH~~!

Just asking.

DALLAS - JUNE 17:  Julie Morris holds her daug...Image by Getty Images via Daylife

I was hoping this would be a weekend to relax, but, i was wrong. I'm still busy. My baby never gave me a chance to sleep last night and to just even let me nap for few minutes. Oh well, I still enjoy taking care of him although there are just times that I'm really just tired.

There are times that i had to leave my kids to my mom. And i know most of moms did or still doing it to their mother's now. I'm not very proud of it because i was supposed to be the one to take care of my children and not anyone else. My mom loves my children but she kind of, i mean she can't stand taking care of them for just 30 minutes. She can take care of my kids if there is no choice, or no one else was around to take care of them. Don't get me wrong, I'm not angry with my mother. I love her. It's just that ever since i was young, My parents has no choice but to leave me to my grandparents because they need to work. I uses to think why they didn't really tried to get me to my grandparents and they just let me grew up with them,. My feelings weren't very close to my mom and dad because of this. But i swear to GOd, I tried my best to get close to them since I returned to them in high school.

Up to know i still feel there's a wall between me and my mom, a wall that i keep trying to reach the top so i can cross over, but my mother doesn't tried hard to let me cross. She;s very generous, but to express her love to me, maybe not very well. Well, did i say i'm not angry? Well, yes, i'm not. I just want to let my feelings out because, We're OK but i don't know. Maybe it's just me. or maybe i'm right. (sigh)Why is she like that?

Pretty scary month of June!

OMG! it's been a long time since i last posted something!!! I have been busy and my kids are so handful, The school just started and my daughter was so excited but, i guess most schools are not excited to open for this school year, because of the A( H1N1) virus spreading so fast.

I'm not really scared at first but it was when the number of people who was positive in this flu increases rapidly, that was the point that I'm a bit afraid to bring my family somewhere, like a mall or something, a lot of schools canceled their classes for the whole month of June and will resume by July, Almost all of the Universities in the metro are closed temporarily but my daughter's school is still on going. Because i guess it's not a very big school. But i hope if the virus still spreads continuously i hope they'll let the kids just stay at home for a while.

Anyhow, in these past few days. my daughter has been accompanying my brother and his wife to be. They have been busy preparing things for their wedding next year, I'm actually very excited for them, because i will be their wedding singer and the make-up artist at the same time, So cool! anyways i had to go back to work

Do you cry in front of your kids?


Today is one of the days that i really don't like, Today i kind of felt pretty sad about certain things that was happening in the past few weeks, and i can't tell my loved ones about it. I know that every once in a while they read my blog, so sorry sister and brothers, I'm not going into details.

I always show to my family how happy i am for all the blessings that God has given me and My family. Which is very true I'm so blessed. But there are people that are trying to pull me down and make my days so bad. I'm always trying my very best to help my family, my kids and my husband,and i know that I'm not perfect. but i never stop trying to work hard and even harder than i thought. I usually get affected or be emotional by negative things that people say but i never show it. I just keep it to myself and then i know it will pass and then i forget about it. but there are just people who never get's tired to bring me down.

The hardest part? is i don't want my kids to see me crying, I don't want them to see that I'm weak too. It's not always that i can smile with grace.I'm human too. I just hope this feeling subside very very soon,

Troubled kid.


I have this new student, and i think that she has no or just a little interest in learning. She is still in high school. She seems very smart and kind, but that problem maybe is not in her or me. It's about her interests. This is the very first time i encountered a student like her.

I have various types of students ages 10 until 50+. Most of my students are willing to learn and only a few looked like they were just forced to take the class. But i never had a student like her before. I'm Kinda' having some difficulties explaining things to a mind that is never open. She seems like something is bothering her. I wanted to ask her but we've just started our classes, so i think it's too early to ask private matters.

I' m just worried that her family or even the school might think that she is not learning at all. I know that i got all the patience in the world, but she just doesn't want to cooperate. Whenever i asked her questions, she just say "i don't know." or "I'm not sure" She always say that. I just after the Chinese new year i would be able to persuade her to focus on her lessons and study. Wish me luck guys (cross fingers)

Super mom again!

Having a family is really fun and exciting, You get to be with your special love one, plus little blessings from above. But of course there are times that it's not always sunny. if you know what i mean. These past few weeks was a very very hectic week. I have been doing a lot of chores all by myself.

Well, It's not new but this time i don't have a housemaid to help me. My maid went home and already quit because she said that her husband wanted her to just stay at home because nobody is going to take care of her baby, oh well, I gotta let her go, She's been with us for two years now. It's going to be hard for me. But i guess i can do it. I've done this before I'll just have to do it again and get used to it.

This week my in-laws visited us, and that include my sister-in-laws,cousins, nieces,0 nephews etc. It was fun having them at home but also tiring. Kids just don't want to stop. Weather is really cold and windy so the kids just stayed inside. I had fun i just hope, i had more chance to cook. I love cooking but because I'm too busy. I didn't cook some of the dishes that i'm planning to cook. That's life!

Happy new year to all! Cheers!

Quick cash that is safe and easy.

As a working mother, I know how hard it is to get through our daily finances. How hard it is to stretch our money to reach the next payday. Most of us would try to do anything just to make sure that our family survive. Especially, nowadays that the whole world is not doing well.

At this point in time we all need a helping hand, A trustworthy partner that will help us to get through. There are times that we urgently need money in between paydays, and I think here's something that may help all of us in need.

At Yellow Leaf Financial, getting payday loans is as easy as 1, 2, 3. Cash advance application is very easy. It's fast and simple, it will only take around 5 minutes or even less. And you can get approved for a Payday Loan in just minutes. Another best part is it's OK if you have poor or bad credit. So in any emergency cases that you need some quick cash? You could easily check out www.yellowleafianancial.com at the comfort of your own home. And apply online.

So worry no more, getting cash advance and payday loans has never been this fast, safe and easy. Better safe than sorry.

Last day of crying.

Today is the last day of my son's Daily shots. It was really hard for me every time i bring my son to the hospital, It's like He cries for help. Almost all of the nurses are telling me not to bring my baby back because it just breaks their hearts everytime he cries.

I felt relieved when the doctor finally said that Today will be his final shot and he will be OK, I just need to continue and religiously give him his medicine on time for 7 more days. I knew God is always listening to all of our prayers. And my husband is also happy for what happened. It costs us a lot, i mean everyday in the hospital? The bills, the medicine everything.

But nothing is more important than to see my kids up and well.

Tomorrow, my daughter and my husband will go to his Christmas Party and even though the party was supposed to be for the whole family. I guess it would be better if i will stay with my baby.

Happy holidays to everyone!

If you're feeling blue. Count your blessings!


When i was young and feeling blue. I always watch TV and look for comedy shows and or watch comedy movies, and the worst.... i visit the fridge. And look for a friend there! hahaha! what i meant is that i love eating when I'm depressed. Because I'm one of those people who don't get fat easily. But now things changed.

Whenever i feel lonely.. I count my blessings and end up smiling after counting.

So I'm a little down today (just a little) so here's my list to be grateful for:

1. I found out that my husband will receive his 13th month this week! yahoo!!

2. My 8 month old son's teeth is finally showing up! He's a kid now.

3. My 5-year old daughter learned how to pray on her own.

4. Our neighbor's stubborn dog (who always pee and leave a huge poop in front of our gate) was caught by the dog pound yesterday!

5. My sister bought a nice coffee crumble ice cream today! It's been a long time since i last ate one. yum yum!

6. My Taiwanese students who always make me happy every class.


Ok, so i don't feel sad anymore, really! i was thinking of just watching survivor on you tube later and or watch happy slip videos just before i sleep.Have a wonderful day everyone!

An ocean park adventure.



Last Sunday We(the whole family) went out to celebrate my parents 30th Anniversary. Remember last time i posted about asking for all of your help? because i ran out of new ideas to celebrate my parents anniversary.

I want to thank everyone who gave their ideas. I really really appreciate it. By the way, We ended up to Ocean Park.

Yes, you heard it right. My father would like to visit something new to him. So , Me and my brothers and sister have decided that it would be nice, if we will treat them to An Ocean Adventure and eat out at the same time.

Although my father thinks it was a little late to go out because it was almost 7pm. We insisted to go out and bring them to the par.

It was first time for my parents to visit it. It was really fun. My children had so much fun looking at different fishes and underwater creatures. My parents had a great time too.

But it was me and my brothers and sisters who had fun taking pictures, click here! click there! click everywhere. The digital camera went off fast because we took so many pictures, funny, serious, silly! everything!

And of course my husband and my children had a great time too, My hubby had a chance to touch one of the shark's back, it was prohibited but he didn't see the sign on the wall. Oh well. My son's eyes were always big. I think he thought that he was in front of a big TV. My daughter already been there so she was like our tour guide. It wasn't really the Ocean Park that made my parents really happy, It was the thought that counts.

By the way, that's my son "Yuri" crawling

Still renting but happy.


We just moved to our new house last Friday, That's why ive' been busy these past few days of packing and then unpacking. The house has it's own beauty, it's really nice and i like it. But the downside of this is.. we're still renting, My husband and i are still saving more to get our own house.

I felt bad because our main goal for this year is to finally have our own house, but because i just gave birth to my baby boy last March. It was hard for us to purchase our dream house. So again i have to wait for next year. and again i hope that it will really be next year and not the next year, the following year, or after two years.

I can really feel how hard it is to live nowadays, raise two kids and be the best mom at the same time. but no matter how hard it is. I will still do my best for my family's happiness. And i know that a lot of parents nowadays are feeling the same way as i do. I still considered myself very lucky to have my children, my very loving husband and our cozy house.

When was the last time you visit your grandma?

When was the last time you visit your grandma? oh, yes i just visited my grandma last weekend. It was very fun weekend, i went home in my province to visit my grandmother. It was just like reminiscing the old town, because it's very very different now.

I went there with my whole family, even my parents and my sister and brothers went there too. My cousins, uncles. aunties were all there too. It was just like a family reunion. Although were missing some of my uncles and aunties who were all livin in the states, I missed them so much.

It was so fun, My grandma cooked the most delicious recipes she had been passing for us for so many years now, but nobody cooks like my grandma, the smell, the taste.... just so different , It's really true that when you cook with your heart nothing seems to go wrong. So the lunch and dinner were just oh so delicious.

At the end of the day, We had spent all night exchanging Corny jokes but still laughing the hell out of us. Maybe because whenever you give a good deliver to a bad joke, it seems to be funny. And whenever my cousins deliver some jokes with funny actions and gestures , It just turned out to be hilarious. I was just listening to them because I'm not good in making jokes. I might be better in retelling them, but not making one. Anyway, I was just so happy to be with them and my grandma of course.

Father and son. A touching story


I got this mail from ella. and it is really worth reading.


A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.

SON: 'Daddy, may I ask you a question?'

DAD: 'Yeah sure, what it is?' replied the man.

SON: 'Daddy, how much do you make an hour?'

DAD: 'That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?' the man said angrily.

SON: 'I just want to know.. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?'

DAD: 'If you must know, I make $20.00 an hour.'

SON: 'Oh,' the little boy replied, with his head down.

SON: 'Daddy, may I please borrow $10.00 ?'

The father was furious, 'If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard everyday for such this childish behavior.'

The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.
The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?

After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think:
Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10.00 and he really didn't ask for money very often.

The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door.
'Are you asleep, son?' He asked.
'No daddy, I'm awake,' replied the boy.
'I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier' said the man.
'It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you.
Here's the $10.00 you asked for.'

The little boy sat straight up, smiling. 'Oh, thank you daddy!' He yelled.

Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father.

'Why do you want more money if you already have some?' the father grumbled.
'Because I didn't have enough, but now I do,' the little boy replied.



'Daddy, I have $20.00 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?



Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.'
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he begged for his forgiveness.

It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts.

Do remember to share that $20.00 worth of your time with someone you love.

If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days.But the family & friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives.

And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than to our family.

I need some help!!


I really need some help here. I hope you would take some time and give some comments on this post. I have two things on my mind right now.

1st:On November 18, My parents will be celebrating their 30th Wedding Anniversary and Me and my sister and brothers has still no ideas what to do.

We don't want to give common gifts, because that's what we do every year. My father doesn't like romantic dates because he's not that type, My mother do want to go out but both of them have hectic schedules. Their both very active at church, at home and at work especially my dad.

I'm very tired of going out and eating with the whole family every year, because that's what we do every single year. We want to do something unforgettable for them, something both of them will enjoy and remember. It's their 30th year Anniversary. It has to be different.

2nd: On November 30 will be my 6th year wedding anniversary. Like my parents do, Me and my hubby just go out and eat with the kids. yup that's all. We're both very busy. And i just want it to be special.Please! please I need your help and advices!!

Thanks to our weird neighbors!


It's beginning to rain now and I'm still packing our things . I just finished 3 boxes already, but I'm pretty happy because were moving to a beautiful house, It's small but i like it, The first time i saw our new house i already fell in love with it. And i can now call it our own. Have you ever had this kind of feeling that you can't explain? But that is not my actual story, Its just part of it

We've been renting this very nice house for like 4 years now. I love my house as much as i love my family. I have no problems when it comes to neighbors and there are all my friends, though sometimes its hard to say no when there are all so nice to you. Two months ago our landlady approached and told me that somebody wants to buy the house. So in short she told us that we need to find a new place within a month or two. I felt bad because we need to leave. like what I've mentioned earlier i like our house, but i know this day will come. i really felt bad about it.


But things changed when a new family moved right next to our house, just few days after our landlady talked to me. The new neighbors seemed to be nice at first but just after 2 weeks they revealed their true colors. Our neighborhood is known for being peaceful and quiet. But that's what i loved about it. I mean we make some noise too but you will never hear or see any fighting, nagging wives or even flying pots and pans. You can hear different music and a little chat from time to time, crying children and stuff like that. just a typical peaceful neighborhood.
Our new neighbors is so loud in everything they do. When they play music (which is a little ok with me because i love rock). Whenever they talk it's like a surround sound. Just imagine this, One time the wife came out of the house and was standing in front of their door talking on a phone. everybody heard every word she said and the bad thing about this is she is talking about their personal lives. well, i understand that they are just loud people. But because of this, we can hear if the parents are having a fight, you can hear flying pots, spoons whatever. And their children just can't stop crying daily and i mean everyday, i don't know why. One time my husband caught the guy snooping around our house, that's so weird! And one of our old neighbors complained because the new ones always parked their stinky car in front of their house. (if you could only smell it! so foul and smells like spoiled food and dog poop. I like karaoke. But our new neighbors are obsessed with it. They sing every night until midnight sometimes till 2 am. Some of the neighbors already reported them, but nothing happens. They maybe not the worst neighbors at all. But now i don't felt too bad or sentimental because we're moving. They actually helped me to feel extremely happy about moving to our new place. thanks!
