Time after Time

My schedule is full. Believe me, I don't even have my personal time nowadays because of my daughter, Chloe. So when it comes to blogging, I always have this desire to write and update my blog often, which were best done than said.

So, my daily routine is like this: wake up early at 6 am, play with Chloe and watch DVDs with her, prepare her breakfast at around 8, feed her at 9, put her to bed before 10 which I should take a shower right after she sleeps, prepare our lunch... (at that time she'll be awake), eat lunch with her, make up, dress up for work... then bring Chloe to my in-laws house before 12:30 nn. Take the subway for 40 minutes, work.... arrive at my in-laws house at 8 pm, take Chloe home, feed her milk, give her a bath and send her to sleep... (massage...massage) prepare dinner and eat dinner with Tommy... that would be at least around past 10 (it depends if Chloe would sleep sooner) and after, wash the dishes, wash Chloe's bottles, pick up some of her mess around the house and then long before I check my mail and do some of my readings. I feel very exhausted and sleepy.... (These were the reasons why there is Mother' s Day I guess)

My whole week is like that. Honestly, I hate it. I don't hate the idea of having time with my daughter, but what I hate is when I'm always running out of time to do something. I'm always in a hurry or worst I'm in haste every time. I can't even say that I'm having a quality time with my husband lately, or with my self unlike before. There are millions of things I want to do but I couldn't find the time to do all those stuffs. Poor me~ poor myself.

I watched the video of Charrise Pempengco at Youtube and admire her for her talent. Filipinos are truly natural born talents. I hope I would have also the talent next time not to be able to sing like her, but to manage my time wisely and make a zero backlog of my personal projects.

Keeping Right

Have you ever experienced walking on the right side of a sidewalk when suddenly a rushing Korean run into your direction, literally? If you won't give way, you'll just hear that someone muttering something under his breath. Or have you ever had these cases like you were doing " patintero "(pah-tin-teh-roh) with the other person when you are walking? I find this behavior very bothering (sometimes odd and funny) especially when I use the stairways in the subway. Some subway stations have escalors going up installed at the left (e.g. Deokcheon Station). What is surprising is that they even have this sign: I told this to Tommy a few days ago and I just found out from him that they learn walking at the left side of the road in their elementary days. They even have this song that goes lilke this: "People keep to the left and cars to the right. Let's cross the street after looking right and left." So, it must be because of an old convention of walking on the le...

Samsung's AMOLED

Yup. I have a new phone and this is because of Chloe. She knocked out my phone so hard on the bathroom floor that made the monitor useless for two whole days! I went to a near Anycall service center and actually planned to repair it but they said that I had to pay for around 25,000won for a part replacement, I just thought of buying a new one since there are a lot of free phones nowadays and I had used my phone for more than two years. To pay 25k for an old, really full of scratches phone (because of Chloe) is too much for me since sooner or later I also need to replace it. In the end, it turned out not to be a free phone(850,000 won / $690). Tommy bought this phone for me saying that I need a "much, much better phone" because of his daughter...hahaha! and because I've been always using free phones since I came here in Korea (which are NOT really FREE PHONES because of the additional services included in the phone bill for the first few months). So, I resulted picking thi...
