One fine Saturday afternoon at Lake Eola

We went to Lake Eola today and here are some of the pictures from our afternoon relaxation.

Have a happy weekend everyone!

Their tacos were GREAT! I highly recommend their $2 fish tacos.

I love how they take care of animals here. Lagi ko nakikita yung mga swan eggs by the lake na naka-screened off para hindi matapakan or nakawin ng mga tao.

Crafts for less

I don't really know what it is with the holiday season, but my "craftiness" usually kicks in whenever Christmas is fast approaching. It all started about a year ago when I decided to make personalized cards and gifts for my friends, family members, and colleagues. My Mom is really crafty, but I wasn't really interested in making projects when I was a lot younger, 'coz I'm just too lazy to even think about a concept. Our house in the Philippines will always be festive by October 'coz my Mom will decorate the entire place with so much attention to every detail, so that her holiday theme will flow all throughout our house. Meanwhile, I will just sit on the couch and watch TV and lounge like there's no tomorrow. I showed no interest at all, as everything was just too much for my brain cells to handle.

Medical Examination at SLMCEC

November 9-10, 2009 This will be a blow by blow account of my medical exam that took place last week. If you want to be first in line, you can be there as early as 3am, but I went there at 5am because I wanted to make sure that I am safe while taking the exam and I don't want to wait in line for 2-3 hours. It was a good move, since they were already accepting applicants at 5am and I got in around 5:20am and I was the 54th applicant of the day. Make sure to have the following ready: 1. Passport 2. 4 2x2 visa pictures (they will only take 3 though, but I brought 4 since that's their requirement) 3. Original and photocopy of approval letter from the embassy 4. Print out of your interview schedule 5. Black ballpoint pen 6. Payment (213.35 - exchange rate is at 48) Flow chart: 1. At 5:30 I already got in and filled out the Patient Data Sheet form. Memorize your fiance's address and phone number or at least have a copy of it. 2. The guard called us up for the digital picture taki...

Happy thanksgiving!

This is my first thanksgiving in the US and I really insisted that we have a thanksgiving dinner with the traditional turkey. My husband was kind enough to give in to my demand and helped me get all the stuff we need for dinner. We invited 3 of his friends over, since both of us don't have families here (I have relatives in Clermont, but they had plans for thanksgiving too). We had this huge turkey, cornbread dressing, mashed potatoes, apple-cranberry cobbler, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie (the last 3 sides were still in the oven, that's why I wasn't able to include it in this photo). We just watched football after dinner and I'm glad that my husband's friends were happy about their meal. They all said I did a good job in preparing it and hearing that made me very happy because that means I am successful on my first ever hosting experience. Yeah, this was also my first time to host a dinner gathering without my mom around to tell me what to do. Today, I am...
