Come join us in our nesting place.

S-A-L-E.

We are on sale.

What an attractive line that is. And me being a big discount shopper, I always find that difficult to ignore.

And today, our local mall screams that in big bold letters. And I wasn’t able to resist the temptation to buy something, though it’s not for me. But I certainly went home not empty-handed.

Meanwhile, in the worldwideweb, I found out earlier today a ladies’ clothing store that is on SALE. Oh yeah, and the name is Roman Originals. Established in 1957 and originally based in Birmingham, Roman Originals has presently grown to 150 outlets around United Kingdom that specialize in Ladies wear that ranges from Day wear to Evening wear to Special Occasion clothings.

Also now, they are working their ways to every lady’s heart with their very tempting discount online shopping offers. First, they’ve got lots of items that are on sale – from coats to blouses to dresses to suits and so much more. Second, Roman Originals offers 10% off on your next purchase if you subscribe to their Roman news. Then, they are holding a competition that enables one to win £250 or an entire wardrobe of clothes. Moreover, they offer to deliver orders that are over £75 worth. Interested? Have a look at their lovely collection and also check the size guide they provided for everyone’s convenience. Enjoy shopping!

For what seemed like ages, my mother’s been bugging telling me to check  January 2009 Architecture Board Exam result online. Of course, I complied everytime. But everytime, I found nothing. No result - to which my mother said that I must not be checking EVERYTHING. *sigh*

Then I found out that PRC offered to release the result by February 17. So yesterday, maybe I must be the first  to check the results online. Still nothing. Again, mother said I must have missed something. Why the interest? It’s because my cousin took the exam last January and we’ve been waiting for a month already, that’s why.

Anyway, today…finally I saw the result. And. I. am.so.happy -ecstatic, really.

Congratulations to the new architects of this country.

Says it all, huh? Sigh.

On the second thought, the to-do list is not updated. I did a good deal of  house cleaning today.

But today really is just like any ordinary day for me -except that I needed to work 4 hours earlier. *wry smile*

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY to ALL!

Chipped nails. Chipped paint. Chipped wood. Chipped, chipped, chipped. I couldn’t find chipped something anywhere in my photo archive. Or maybe I didn’t try so hard. *smiles*

But I wanted to participate to PH so I’ll just show you a definitely NOT chipped bridal car.

A friend and officemate finally tied the knot last week. Best Wishes!

Hunger is an issue worldwide -be it in developing countries or otherwise – with poverty being cited as cause. A source stated that as of 2008 (2004 statistics), the World Bank has estimated that there were an estimated 982 million poor people in developing countries who live on $1 a day or less (World Bank, Understanding Poverty, Chen 2004).

A worldwide concern. Asia. Africa. Even in America. In fact, there are 35 million Americans who are hungry or living on the brink of hunger.

That is why the Stamp Out Hunger! drive is launched. Already in its 16th year, the Stamp Out Hunger! drive is the America’s largest single-day food drive, having collected more than 836 million pounds of food since 1993. And on Saturday, May 10, Campbell Soup Company and the United Postal Service will again join forces with the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) to help Stamp Out Hunger! across America .

For those of you in the US and who wants to participate in this noble drive, here’s what you have to do: Prepare a bag containing non-perishable foods, like canned or boxed goods before the postman drops by with the regular mail delivery on May 10. There will be about 230,000 postal carriers in more than 10,000 communities who will collect donations from homes across the country and deliver them to food bank members of America’s Second Harvest – The Nation’s Food Bank Network and other hunger relief organizations.

Again the big day is on May 10, Saturday. Mark it in your calendars, please. And remember you can help end hunger with just a bag of food - a simple effort that will go a long way.

For more details about the annual Stamp Out Hunger! drive, you may ask your local postal personnel, contact your local post office or visit http://www.helpstampouthunger.com.

As a last note, wherever we may be, we can help. We can help in little ways. We can participate in the Feeding Projects of our local community or of our local organizations. In any way we can, let’s all help. Let’s share our blessings to the less fortunate.
