Everything Great and Grand.

I still can remember that experience. My first (and hopefully not the last) Bali Massage was at Bali Mandira Hotel Resort and Spa. It was the best massage I had so far! Just check this out.

Look at those massage tables! Yes these were very comfy and for the first time, I was able to take a nap while having the massage. It was so refreshing and the ambiance added to the fun. The Bali Massage is really popular around the world. It is somehow Bali’s pride. You should never leave Bali without experiencing the best massage in the world. That’s what we did and we will forever remember that experience. An experience that hopefully will happen again in the next few years.

If you could only see black and white except for one color, what color would you choose to see?

- GREEN!

If you could have a room full of any one thing, what would it be?

- Bags! I typed books first then realized, oooppps I’d rather have bags then second choice would be books.

Imagine you could go back to the age of five and relive the rest of your life, knowing everything that you know now. You will reexperience your entire adolescence with both the cognitive ability of an adult and the memories of everything you’ve learned form having lived your life previously.

Would you lose your virginity earlier or later than you did the first time around (and by how many years)?

- HA! Still the same, at the same year and with the same person. (*wink*)

That is my sort of dillema right now. I heard that there will be a HUGE sale tomorrow in my country. This is something that I’ve been waiting for! But when I was browsing for something about investments, I saw this article that the good time to invest and buy gold coins is NOW! Today is the best day to invest since gold has been in the market for several years already. And it has been years since the interest has peaked. Which is a very good reason to buy. It can be of course in a form of a coin or ingot. But you also have to be on alert since gold has been getting popular media-wise. That’s the advise that I got from US Gold Bureau. It is a good advise considering that they have serving a lot of people already. So the question is, should I invest now and forget about shopping? We’ll see!

I was supposed to do some research on e cigarette for the FIL. He is very curious as to what this can offer. I heard it’s premium and you can purchase it online so I volunteered to look it up for him. But I came across Cebu Pacific’s Fun Tours Sale!

And I’m eyeing Kota Kinabalu.

For Philippine Peso (PHP) 13,533.37, per person includes airfare and hotel. Not bad for an international flight! Now I need to check out my budget and see if this would fit!

As for the e cigarette, I know I’ve read about it somewhere I just couldn’t find it. The only thing I remember about it is that it is a premium cigarette that would protect your health. And not to mention you can smoke in style! Love that! I remember there are PR110 Starter Kits available to purchase which is perfect for the FIL. There is also the Heavy Smoker Kits for the Uncles who might be interested also. I will see what I can find and share it with them soon.

I last saw this during a Disney parade at Hongkong Disneyland. Chip and Dale! Definitely grand for kids and young at heart. Chip and Dale are the two animated chipmunks created by The Walt Disney Company. They started in the early ’50’s. Yes they are THAT old! But the kids STILL love them. And they were one of the “Stars” in the Disney parade. These are definitely GRAND!

The first day of school of each kid is usually the grandest! I don’t know why but it reflects the entire school year. It’s like it is important to have them appreciate the first day to be able to appreciate the rest of the school year. The most exciting part there (as far as I can remember) is having the new set of stuff for school, knowing where your locker is located, having to know who your new classmates and teachers and more. As per my daughter, she was very excited being in the new level – Senior Nursery. This is so much of a big deal for her because she feels like she is already a big girl.

I know the feeling. When I was in my first day of my first year in College, I was so excited I almost went into the wrong Gym lockers. That was so embarrassing! I almost went into the men’s! That was one thing I would never forget about my first day in College. Speaking of lockers, there are actually a company that sells different types of lockers and you can order online. Lockers for sale in their website are in good quality. From school lockers to employee lockers, they cater all kinds. And I love their site because you can just browse in your own free time, click what you want to order and viola! You can have your own locker deliver at your own door step.

Pork Souvlakia Souvlaki (Greek Shish-Kabobs)

This food is definitely grand. CYMA is a a popular restaurant in Manila that I recently tried and just can’t get enough. Served with warm pita bread and yogurt garlic sauce is the Pork Souvlakia Souvlaki or Greek Shish-Kabobs in CYMA. This is very filling but still I finished all of it in no time! At least they didn’t have to produce printed boxes to pack the food because all of our plates were empty. Love, love the food in CYMA. I even ate twice there in a week! Will I ever eat again there soon? Yes, definitely and hopefully very, very soon. (*wink*)
