1. When it's quiet at the office, I tend to become sleepy.
2. Busy days in what seems like a month.
3. My heart is healthy and hopes to stay this way for more years.
4. My birthmonth - July.
5. In the town where I was born electricity became available just two years ago.
6. Being patient more than I am is something I really love about my significant other / friend.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to having an undisturbed sleep which I haven’t had for the past days, tomorrow my plans include attending a Parent-Teacher orientation in AAM and reporting to work afterwards and Sunday, I want to take a rest, rest and rest!

My birth month

Cliché as it may sound, but really, time flies so fast. Half of 2010 has already passed and I haven’t accomplished any of my goals yet save to sending Joshua to a good school.

July is my birthday month. I know I should be happy, but deep inside me there is still something missing. It has been two years now since I last celebrated my birthday. I have already accepted the bitter fact that birthdays (or celebrating birthdays) are for kids. For me, the day just simply come and go like any ordinary days. If I won’t be able to attend church on that day, I’d simply say a simple prayer of thanks to the Man above for giving me another year to spend with my kids. We don’t go out. We simply hang out on our house or cuddle in our room. At the end of the day, amidst not being able to celebrate my birthday with a candle and foods, I am still at bliss. Nothing compares to the laughter and giggles I hear from my kids.

It’s a holiday, people!

Thursday Thunks: It's a holiday, people!

The TT questions are brought to you by Berleen, the color of Pacific Ocean and the number that comes after 393.

So yeah, it's a holiday weekend. 4th of July... Independence Day... whatever you want to call it. What are you doing on July 5th?

That’ll be a Monday here in this side of the world. My rest day. I’d be spending the mornings with my kid in school.

Have you ever known anyone who has been kidnapped?

Thankfully, none. And I’m hoping no one I personally knew would be kidnapped in the future.

Does wiping with newspaper make you a smartass?

Dunno.

If someone sends you - or you stumble upon a link that will show you celebrity death photos, do you click the link?

Probably yes, but I should have known the person who would send me the link otherwise I’d ignore. Must have been a virus or a malware.

Do you decorate your computer/laptop?

What do you mean with decorate? With skins for laptops? No, I prefer classic jet black color of it.

You see Bud and his lady out walking in a park... suddenly she stops and kicks him square in the ass. What did he say to her?

You’re one hot ass. Let’s go find a place to drive me crazy.

There is a cockroach, a tarantula and a mouse in the room - which one do you kill first?

It’ll be easier to kill the cockroach compared to the tarantula and a mouse. So I’ll go for it.

Did you know that a hay bale can start on fire by itself? Do you know how?

No.

Kimber calls you - what is her voice like?

Bedroom voice telemarketer.

Have you ever played Battleship?

I must admit, I’m a nerdy-nerd type of person so the answer is no.

Days of our Lives paid tribute to Francis Reid/Alice Horton this week (Francis,freid_240x320 the actress, died in February, Alice (the character) died last week). She was 91 years old  and was portrayed as a smart, witty, funny, loving, always gave the best advice type woman. Wonderful mother, grandmother, friend... many characters (and cast members) commented on how they strive to be the type of woman she was. Is there someone in your life that you strive to be like?

I don’t strive to be like someone else, rather I strive not be like anyone else.

Do you attend parades?

Way back in HS, yeah. Not now though.

If Berleen were to purchase three 10-gallon tubs of the peanut butter that they use at Dairy Queens, would you think any less of her?

I don’t know her yet.

If all the flowers but one kind withered and died, never to grow again, but that one kind of flower would grow worldwide forever, what would you want the surviving flower to be?

Err.. The most classic would be roses and tulips.
