McDonalds wedding in Manila

I saw this article last night from the W@W website and I tell you I was like..is this for real? and yes it was.

The couple apparently loved the said fastfood and decided to treat their wedding guests there. It was nice and very unique!! They even have their wedding cake shaped in a big hamburger :)

"With “I do’s” already exchanged, the newly-married couple treated their guests to the brand of fast food that they both love. Yes, the wedding reception – or “recess,” as the couple likes to call it – took place at a McDonald’s branch along Alabang-Zapote road."

pearls for your wedding!!

Diamond as we all know is a girl’s best friend but I think pearls can be the second girls’ best friend. I wore pearls on my wedding day but of course because I am not rich and that I can not afford to buy expensive pearl necklace and earrings.. I settled for something cheaper but mind you it looks good on my wedding gown and I absolutely loved it!!

If I have the money I will definitely invest in jewelries and in pearls, knowing I will pass them on to my daughter and to my daughter’s daughter. It would be a family legacy.

Pearlsonly.com has wide arrays of pearls, they are all beautiful!! I tell you my eyes are wide open as I look at them one by one. They have great collection for weddings and you can never go wrong with their bridal pearl set. Stunning!! When I look at it I wanted to get married again!! And if you are a frugal girl like me, don’t worry they do always have SALE and the collection in the red tag sale are all so nice too. You’ve got so many choices there and when you buy you get a free decorative gift box!

How I wish the hubby will order one for me for my birthday next year!! I really would love to have one :D

Bacolod Trip

Guess what? I was able to book us a flight to Bacolod for only P209.40 and that is for me and my husband already. Cebu Pacific is on sale so if you want to get cheap airfare tickets for January to March next year, go and book it now. Good thing I stayed up late to discuss with Gigi her wedding plans and to finish the custom cardboard boxes.

Now, I have to search for places to stay and sights to see in Bacolod. You can say I am excited!!

HE cares

Even a cheap insurance can be a big help in time of needs. I mentioned before that we lost a co-employee due to stroke. We went there last night and it was sad to hear the stories regarding his hospitalization. Because they are thinking of money to use at that time, they settled for a government hospital which is quite far from their home. Everyone thought that if he’s been brought to a good hospital and he was brought there immediately, he might have survived. But then at the end of the day it’s only God who knows when our life is gonna end. My only regret is for all the years that he was with us in the office, I never had the chance to tell him that god loves him.

I should start doing that now. Telling people that God loves them and that God do cares. I do not know how it would change their life or their thoughts about God but as a Christian, I should do that often.

And so I am telling you guys now, The Lord loves you!! and whatever situation you are I right now, he still cares for you.

Plans and dreams

A repeat order for a t-shirt we printed last month came in the other day. And I am thankful. I hope there is more to come. And I am still thinking of what else can we do with the printing? Should we print bags (you know those eco shopping bags that are so in today)? Should we print pillow cases? I love the idea of the couple’s pillows I saw at the internet and I am thinking, we can make also personalized pillow cases using silk screen printing.

I will definitely let you know all the new stuff we will come up to if ever. I hope this business flourished into something big and I hope that our future will be as bright as the sunshine. I wish to see hubby wearing tuxedos someday, attending conferences, conventions and checking in to five start hotels with me in tow of course.

Electronic what?

Do you know what is it? Look like some kind of doorbells no? but it is not. It is an electronic pest control, one that you plug into an electrical outlet and then presto! mice and cockroaches will leave your house, that is according to the salesman last night from Ace Hardware, although the one he's selling is not exactly the same like that. The boy said it was on sale, original price is 2,400.00 and now they are selling it for only 1,500.00!!! I so wanted to buy it because I want to get rid of rats and cockroach at home but I don't have enough cash in my wallet last night which is good. I don't need any extra expenses now and besides we just bought one mouse trap from the supermarket the other night.

How about you guys? what do you use in your home? Do you sue this electronic pest control? if you do, where do you think the pests are going? hehe! because the salesman said they will leave your house...I just thought poor neigh boors if they don't have it.

Empty house and school

This week I found my self and hubby with so much obligations to handle. Although most of them are family related. Enrolling the brother, getting their papers, registering the two nephew for ALS and at the same time have to fix empty house at San Mateo.

Last night we bought new locks and new door knobs to replace the old ones, we still have yet to schedule a day to clean and put everything in order. We might buy also big boxes or shipping boxes for the stuff we are putting aside. It's a major clean up there.

As usual, office work has to come to second because of the many obligations I committed my self to.

BASYA @ LJBC Anniversary!

Na miss namin ang mga wala sa picture!!! Chel and Dax, Jerlyn & Teng, Grace & Freddy :) Next anniversary sana present na kayo!

I want a new cell phone

I know I do not need a new cell phone or a cell phone booster because mine is still working fine except for few times that it hanged on me but over all it is still working. But looking at the trendy cell phones out there, you know those mobile phones where you can update and see facebook and twitter status, play games you play in FB, some even watch TV in their phones, and most of all take pictures using their phones. You see, mine is the very basic one, I use it for three MAJOR things I need.

1. TEXT
2. CALL
3. ALARM CLOCK

and that's it. Now, I know I can not afford a very expensive one but don't you think I deserve a much better one than my present phone?

My eyes

I think I need to have my eyes checked again, it has been three years since I have them checked. And maybe part of my dizziness was because of it. Being in front of the computer for almost 16 hours a day can damage the eye. I hope though that mine will still be good because I don’t have budget to even cheap prescription glasses available in any optical shop.

I still have my old glasses that I have barely use. Maybe I should start using it now.

DTI BUSINESS REGISTRATION

Our next move is to register our printing business to DTI or Department of Trade and Industry. This where you register a business if it sole proprietorship. I searched the website and the internet on how to register and here's what I found.

1. Go to nearest DTI office near you
2. Fill up application form
3. Pay the registration fee

You will need your TIN Number, 2x2 picture and prepare at least 3 to 5 choices for your business name.
Good thing there is only minimal requirements and that they don't require bpi certification so I guess hubby can do it in a day.

After the DTI registration, we will then apply a Mayors Permit and then the BIR so we can have the Official receipts printed.

Now, we are talking serious business. I'm quite afraid but I am excited.

T-shirt and Money matters

We sold plenty of shirts yesterday at the church. Mostly are the ones we designed especially for the church anniversary. And we also got a lot of positive response regarding hubby’s design. I couldn’t be more thankful. I am really praying that this business will flourish and that the income we get from it will suffice for our daily needs. If that happens then I would have peace leaving this day job of mine.

Although I still need more income to be able to help our families. A brother in law is asking for a support for his studies and I have old parents whom we are supporting too.

With all that expenses, I don’t think we can buy ourselves life insurance policy which I have been aiming since the day I started working. And I don't think we can travel for leisure for the next few years.

Well, if God will make our tshirt printing business a success, i don't see any reason for us not to travel. :)
