Photo via Tumblr.com If the partial unofficial election results are to be believed, Jejomar Binay might just deliver the biggest upset in the May 10 2010 elections. Of course this is something which depresses some of my friends no end, especially those who were rooting for Mar Roxas, till the last minute the leading contender in the vice-presidential race, according to pre-election surveys. Yet, even if Roxas edges him out in the end, Binay's poll performance shows that he's made of sterner stuff and that we should not underestimate the dark horse candidate ( ... Continue Reading...

QUOTE OF THE DAY on how the automated elections turned out, with people waiting an average of four to five hours in order to vote: "In the past, voting was quick and counting was slow.

Baby Girl Z and our 4D ultrasound experience
I can't quite contain my excitement upon knowing that I was going to have a baby girl again. Maybe because am biased towards the fact that girls are generally easier to raise than boys? LOL. But hubby and I couldn't really care what gender the baby is for as long as it came out normal and healthy. It just turned out that a girl is what God gave us for this, my last baby (yes, am not having any more) We're counting the weeks when she appears ;) In the meantime, am coping with the occasional sluggishness, sleepiness and aches that a prego woman often encounters.
