Nice To Know You Wednesdays, online q + a

Before anything else can I just commend on last week’s participant’s Jenny and Jessie’s entry. I love all the photos she’s included, especially the mouth-watering pasta! If I had more time, I’d like to add photos in my posts, too! Thanks to the other participants as well ^_^

Okay then, here are the 5 questions of the week:

  1. What was the title of the last book you read?
  2. How do rainy days make you feel?
  3. What effect does music have on you?
  4. What were your best and worst subjects in school or college?
  5. If you were a star of a reality show, what would its title be: My Turn, My Time or Queen For The Day?

+ here are my answers:

  1. The last book I read was Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks + I cannot wait to share it here, if only I’ve got more time 😉
  2. Most of the time, the rain makes me feel lazy + lonely. Nowadays, they are a welcome break from the usual summer heat.
  3. I always say that music is much like saying a prayer for me, in whatever form, it taps into my deepest of emotions + soothes me like a dear old friend, whenever I needed it. Music also makes for one perfect workout buddy, it I have the time in the world to do it, that is! 🙂
  4. I must say English + Filipino are my best subjects, but I cannot say the same for Math + my Computer subjects back in College. I suck at Math, big time! 🙁
  5. If I were a star of my own reality show, I’m going to go for Queen for The Day. I am the queen of my home, after all + the queen of my kitchen, too! 😀

It is your turn now + I really cannot wait to read your interesting answers, do not forget to link up here + visit the other participants, too! Check here for our very simple rules + the badges, or you can also click on our badge 🙂

Happy Wednesday everyone. Be back later, this mum will be tackling the laundry + scrubbing the floor today, so I’ll be back later on for hopefully more interesting + thought-provoking posts 🙂

weekly meme, ntkwy, nice to know you wednesday, online q+a

Time again for another round of Nice To Know You Wednesday + before anything else, I would like to thank my 3 participants from last week: Mommy Gagay, Gaylee, + Fe. Much thanks! ^_^

With that out of the way, here are the 5 interesting questions {I hope they will be interesting enough for you to join in ;)} of the week:

  1. When did you last step outside? What were you doing?
  2. What is the last thing you downloaded onto your computer?
  3. What was the last thing you bought?
  4. Who sent the last text message you received?
  5. What did you do for your last birthday?
I don’t know what’s gotten into me, but questions about lasts seem like a great set of queries to answer this gloomy Wednesday morning, here are my answers:
  1. We managed to step outside yesterday + catch up with MV Logos Hope before it leaves for Subic yesterday. I shall post about it on my travel blog soon as I got the chance 🙂
  2. About a dozen Mickey Mouse Clubhouse episodes that my son is currently absolutely crazy about!
  3. I bought a book, stack of postcards + other souvenir items from MV Logos Hope yesterday.
  4. Jared’s dad
  5. For my last birthday, a Sunday, we had a late lunch at California Pizza Kitchen, our first time to eat there. I love the pizza + the pasta, most especially the pumpkin soup, which is also my little man’s favorite. 🙂
Check here for the simple rules of the game + for other badges, too! I look forward to reading your answers, I also hope you visit the other participants + don’t forget to drop your links here 🙂

nice to know you wednesday + leap years

Today is one of those days that happen only once in 4 years + I guess being that it is so rare, it is that much of a big deal, them leap years! The people born today are celebrating their rare birthdays, too, + to that I send my greetings! Cheers! 😀

Today is also that time of the week again for Nice To Know You Wednesday + before I go on to our 5 interesting questions of the day, here is the winner for last week’s little giveaway:

nice to know you wednesdays, nice to know you wednesday giveaways, announcement, online q + a
congratulations, sis Mys! 😀

I am glad that one of the NTKYW regulars won! Congratulations, sis! I will send you an e-mail for instructions. + thanks to all who participated!

Okay, on to our 5 questions, I would love to read your endearing answers to these queries:

  1. If you could go anywhere in the world on vacation where would you go?
  2. Where did you grow up?
  3. What is the last thing you watched on the tellie?
  4. What kind of car do you drive?
  5. Where would you retire?

My answers:

  1. There are just so many places I’d want to see if I have enough means + resources to travel, among them: Boracay, Puerto Princesa, Sagada, CamSur + a bunch of other beautiful destinations in our country, + Rome, to sample loads of pasta + pizza + visit the Pope, any island in the Carribean, England, to visit some of the interesting landmarks, including Westminster Abbey, The London Eye, London High Street + Princess Diana’s resting place. I would love to go to the US, too, to visit Disney World + the Harry Potter Theme Park. Oh, how I wish…:D
  2. I grew up in the same city, although in a different barrio here. It was a small barangay + all the people either know everyone else or are blood-related. It was a quiet place in the province, where we’d fly kites or ride our bikes with Papa on Sunday afternoons. I miss those laid back days + I sure miss being a kid!
  3. We were watching Pinoy Big Brother last night before we decided to call it a day. Although I enjoy the excitement that goes around the house, I especially love watching Tin, Biggle, Slater + Carlo, one character is actually getting into my nerves + I don’t think I can be as diplomatic as his housemates if I were there + he threw the antic at me! 🙂
  4. Fortunately I do not drive one {so why did I ask this question again? :)} but if I could, I’d go for one of those hybrid cars, like a Toyota Prius, perhaps.
  5. If I could, I would love to retire somewhere near the beach {so I can go swimming, jogging + do yoga by the shore!} with a little cottage and an organic garden patch on the side. Am not sure if I can afford to purchase a parcel of that land in this lifetime, though, so, I guess I can settle anywhere I can harness my budding green thumb {if I ever got one!} + grow my own tomatoes + stuff, with loads of greens in the horizon, a wide space where I can run + walk in the morning, + yep, don’t forget, a strong internet connection, so I can still update this mum blog, which is most probably a grandmum’s blog by then! 😉
I am looking forward to reading your answers, do link up here, right? + visit the other participants’ entries, too, to make it twice the fun 😉
