My watch....
Guess What????!!!!

Hubby bought me the AquaRacer I've been dreaming about...

Earlier we went to Trinoma, bought some really fabulous tops (without having to fit them since I can't move my left shoulder) then the wifey in me went home with 5 new throw pillow cases and new placemats. I'm so happy that I get to enjoy the outside world, but mine you, I easily get tired merely walking a few stores, I didn't imagine that the accident has affected me that much.


As hubby and I were enjoying the best ensaymada in town at Mary Grace Cafe, I mentioned to him that I like those diamond earrings we saw at MyDiamond, he told me, let's go, let's buy it. We went straight to Gateway, at MyDiamond, I tried on again the diamond earrings - hmnnnnn I'm having second thoughts, I told him if I can have the Aqua Racer watch instead from Tag Heuer, although it costs twice as the diamond earrings - he said YES!

OmiGod! I will post the pix later as well and the shoe cabinet we bought.

Diamonds are forever...
Hubby and I went to catch Beowulf yesterday, it was a nice movie. Finally!, we found the shoe cabinet we were looking for, of course, we didn't have the heart to let go of it so it was sitting in our car on our way home, although it cost twice as what we have budgeted. Hubby insisted on setting it up all by himself - I hope he will be able to finish it tomorrow as he promised...


I had a meeting with a client earlier, then hubby and I had dinner at Burgoo's Gateway...then we met with a dear friend for another business ops. Before dinner, we passed by MyDiamond and I saw a fabulous diamond earrings, the tag - 33,500! I controlled myself and slowly walked away, never to return again...hehe.

They say that diamond is a girl's best friend and I say otherwise...

To be on a house-arrest
I have first-hand experience on how it feels to be on a "house-arrest". Since the accident, I never get the chance to go outside "alone". My days will go by: waking, eating, watching, reading, surfing,watching,eating,blogging,taking a bath, watching,sleeping...

Now, I'm really catching up on those TV series that I've missed, my playlist includes Alias, Prison Break, Gray's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives (I know...I know, they have to pay for condemning doctors in our country, but I'm desperate also you see....I needed to kill the time), Dr.House and also watch over and over again: Cake, A lot ike Love, The Devil Wears Prada, and other movies in my laptop.

But the thing is, I have to make most of my situation so I try to enjoy each day. Yesterday, I managed to sort out papers, bills, bank statements, etc. Don't be sorry for me, I get a chance to go to the mall, after my PT session, I'm a certified mall rat, you know that by now. What's sooooo frustrating is that I cannot shop for tops since I can't leap my shoulder, I can only fit shoes. Hay.

On my own...
Once again, I'm home alone, my hubby went to office since I cannot report for work 'til first week of December, I spent my day in front of my laptop, browsing 'til my eyes popped. Yesterday, hubby dropped me off at Robinson while he went back to office after my physical therapy at Medical City. Since I cannot shopped for clothes obviously, I decided to have a foot massage. I missed pampering my self, then I went to McDonalds for snack while waiting for hubby to pick me up. At 7PM still no hubby, I went to grocery...walking...walking, I need to exercise you know!

At long last, we managed to get ourselves a threadmill. We decided to get our own threadmill than to enroll at a gym which will cost us no less than 4K a month for gym membership, not to mention the gas, food, parking fee and attire. Atleast we don't have to worry about time and whether we look good in our nike apparel hehe. Needless to say, we badly need a 15-minute run, especially hubby, he's getting bigger! For me, scrimping on health is definitely a no-no.

It's been 3 months now that I've been contemplating to buy a Tag Heuer AquaRacer, I just don't have the heart to buy one, although hubby already gave me the green light to do so, I will have to give in sometime...I know it because I want it so badly, anyway, I'm just letting time tick so I could think clearly hehe.

I feel happier...
Two weeks after the accident that changed how I view life - I began to smile a lot, I even heard myself laughing, how I missed the old me.

My hubby went back to work, my family made sure that I have internet connection so I'll not die of boredom. Actually, I wasn't bored at all, I felt that I have so many things to do, read, plan, organize, etc. My list is really swarming with things I needed to do. Unfortunately, I can't still use both hands, my shoulder hurts. I have to endure another week of physical therapy.

This is the first time that I don't have to work for a month. I don't have to think about the problems, the projects, and the whole office scene.

I'm planning to start a new business venture with my friends, and to take our wedding coordination seriously. I'm starting the business plan now in between me browsing and chatting with friends.

A second life...
So many things happened last month...I was so busy with work, yes, work takes so much of my time. I work for 5 days - minimum of 12 hours a day and during weekends I'm out of town, conducting briefing. We were gone to General Santos City last October 23, I'm not feeling well enough to travel but I insisted, come Saturday morning when we were on our way to Koronadal, we met a vehicular accident. The van that we rented swerved several times after hitting a road sign which caused it rear tire to expload, the van rolled twice then skid off the main road. I just froze.

I prayed to God not to let any harm come to us while the van was making it turns. Fortunately, we survived the accident, with bone fractures and mild bruises, one of the passenger who happens to be our field personnel was in critical condition.

I felt so alone when I was confined in the provincial hospital, my hubby cannot go to GenSan right away since the flight is fully-booked. Our office managed to coordinate things for us while we were there. We were brought to Medical City straight from the airport.

I was happy that we were finally in Manila. Last Tuesday, I was confined again because of pneumonia and asthma. By Friday, I was allowed to go home to rest for the next two weeks while undergoing physical therapy.

My hubby never left my side, he takes care of me like a baby.

Yes, this is my second life...and I intend to make it the best I could have.
