If schedule permits, we might be able to drop by in our future little mansion's location tomorrow morning and meet our Ninong (the developer). We'll sort out and finalize a few stuffs regarding the financing part. We might also be able to discuss the final design layout specifically the floor plan on the ground floor since ours will slightly be deviated from the other houses' layouts. Well, I leave that task to the husband he's more knowledgeable about those stuffs than me. I will just meddle come designing time..err not actually meddle because I also know less about interior designing but more of giving out suggestions on minor things like the bathroom lighting for example. Can you already sense how excited we are? This is it! The future little mansion is inch by inch becoming a reality.

I have mentioned earlier that we're attending a wedding tomorrow. It's our first time to set foot in that particular venue so I asked a while ago the driver husband if he knows already how to get there. His answer: "I have a gps-like mind so don't you worry and we'll get there". Yeah right, there goes the confidence again. I just hope that we won't get lost on our way and we'll really get there in time.

Our youngest sibling will be graduating from college in less than four months. Finally, my Dad can now truly relax and just enjoy his retiring years after painstakingly working abroad just to send us to good schools. I'm not sure though if my brother will find right away a job or will take a few months of rest. In my opinion, it would be better if he'll try to find a job right away. Seeking a job right now is kinda tough so he should grab all bright chances that he can get. Besides, should he wish to study further, he can enroll himself in online colleges like Capella University while working. Capella is an accredited, fully online university and one of the best online graduate schools for working adults. They offer various graduate degree programs one of which is business and just the perfect masteral course for my brother. He really should check out this school soon and I bet that he'll more likely agree with my suggestion.

A former colleague of mine is currently working for Conti's, a pastry shop and restaurant well known for its luscious dishes liked Baked Salmon and cakes like Mango Bravo. Be sure to sign up for austin weight loss programs after gobbling at their resto. She announces in her facebook wall that the Conti's Christmas Goodies are now available: fruit cake, special ham, cakes, pastries, sweets like polvoron, pastillas, mango empanaditas, cashew empanaditas, special breads in boxes and a lot more. These are perfect for all those who have sweet tooth and these also serve as magnificent Christmas gifts to friends and loved ones. But if I were to ask, I'd prefer to receive a whole (not just a single slice) Mango Bravo cake for Christmas and I'm more than contented with that.

I bet shopaholics in the US are now trying to hit the sack as early as they could to store enough energy in time for the Black Friday Sales shopping in stores a few hours from now. Or perhaps, some of them have already set up tents and are camping out outside their favorite malls so they'd be first in the line. For some most probably, they have already taken advantage the Thanksgiving deals in online shops like Buy.com (their thanksgiving sale is up to 70% off). Do check out their great deals now specifically their iphone accessories. From $39.99, these Maximo iM-390 iMetal™ Isolation Earphones' price is now just $25.79. Great savings, indeed.

Tomorrow's the wedding day of a dear friend of mine. I have already prepared the dress and thought of my getup for tomorrow. Unfortunately, I left my iron hair straightener at my folks' place in Makati so I'll just go to a salon after lunch for hair services. I might as well hire help to have my make up done since I'm no expert with it. These are the times when I wish that I can pursue a degree in any cosmetology schools in kansas so I can expertly do all these by myself. I learned from FindABeautySchool through their beauty school directory about the various top notch beauty schools in that area as well in other states. Its services are really convenient for beauty student hopefuls through their comprehensive directory listings searchable either by zip or state.

As the year comes to an end and we're about to welcome a new year, it's never too early to start planning and writing down our goals/plans for 2010. I could say that our year will be mainly focused building and "beautifying" our little mansion. By the way, just heard another positive news about it last night *wink wink*.

Hubby's offshore work assignment next year is still obscure so we'll focus on among other things like domestic travel plans. I want my son to visit his great grandma in our hometown in Isabela where I know he'll appreciate the green fields, the farm scenery complete with animals and even farm automobiles and cattle supplies, the nearby irrigation to which I'm sure he'll drag us because he'd want to swim. Just by thinking about this trip makes me giddily excited. It's been a while since I visited the grannies so this homecoming will be great.

Yeah..right. That's the major reason why I've been slacking these past few days letting all my online assignments just pile up and end up cramming come deadline time. Not even my favorite past time of window shopping online for clothes and Naot shoes can perk me up. Geez, hormones! Why do they have to get out of whack every now and then?

We just received the wedding invitation from one among our many friends who are getting married before the year ends. Looking at their entourage names, I could say that they are one "professional-studded" cast because mostly are doctors, engineers and architects! Lacking is a representative from the lawyer's group. I wonder too if the group of CPAs is represented.

Speaking of Certified Public Accountants, I've heard one particular Las Vegas accounting firm that my batchmates in college are raving about. A lot of them are wanting to fly to Nevada and be part of KondlerCPA's group of elite accountants who are very well commended for their brilliance in providing accounting services and financial business solutions. Having a vast experience in industries like petroleum distribution, auto dealerships, retail/convenience stores, etc, it's no doubt how many businesses in the area are contracting and commending their services very much.

I'm feeling a little crafty this afternoon as I am about to gift wrap a present I'll be giving a friend on her birthday soon. Look what I chanced upon on the web while researching for some creative and unique ways of giftwrapping. Using a brooch as a gift topper definitely adds a personality to a gift no matter how small the parcel is. You can also adapt this idea when wrapping wedding or birthday giveaways.
