Valentines Day 2015!

Hi,

Many of the women yesterday celebrate their valentines day with their boyfriends and husband but I am not one of them!Rawr...haha...well I am a certified NBSB so I don't care not having a boyfriend to date with during Feb 14. I am single for 26 years already and I think God has the reason why :) , he haven't yet found the guy who deserves my love. I had some suitors before but it doesn't end up having a relationship with them. Well I don't want to elaborate more of why I am still single,hehe. Let's move up to what I did on Valentines Day.

I celebrated my Valentines Day with my Mother and Grandmother in the afternoon and with my friends in the evening. Yes it was a blast and a very happy V-Day! V-Day can be celebrated also with your loved ones and friends, it doesn't mean you will only celebrate it with a man or boyfriend. 

It was a busy day for me coz I brought my cat "Brix" to the vet because we noticed that he has a uncontrollable urination this past few days. He will urinate in different areas of the house and the odor is really bad, the whole house smells like urine. Brix has been with us for 6 years now and he's been my lovey dovey ;) well I do love cats a lot than dogs, but we do have two dogs in the house. Brix has been brought to a veterinarian thrice already in his 6 years with us, he's an indoor cat so I don't know why sometimes he easily got sick. I am glad the vet was kind and he attended to what Brix needs for him to get well, he was being injected with an antibiotic yesterday morning. The vet said that it is good for 2 days and it will fight the bacteria that has been causing his uncontrollable urination. But today the antibiotic show a side effect on Brix health, it affects his appetite, he didn't eat anything since this morning :( he only drink water the whole day but no solid food or anything, and when I search through online, the loss of appetite was one of the side effect of the antibiotic being injected to him. I do hope and pray that Brix will be ok soon and his normal appetite will come back in the next few days. Here is Brix, he's a big and handsome cat :)

After me and mom brought Brix to the vet, we then go to the city with my grandma to eat a delicious meal ;)

Then after I had a date with my mom and grandma, I met up with my friends , sisters and brothers in Singles for Christ community to have a group date :)

So over-all my Valentines Day was not sad, but it has a memorable day with my Mother and Grandma plus my friends,sisters and brothers in SFC :) I want to thank God for letting me feel that He does really loved me unconditionally more than I ever imagined, He is really an amazing God. 

Hope all of you had a blast Valentines Day also!

Till next tym.

PROBLEM Again With FAMI

Hi,

It's been 10 days or almost 1 week and 3 days now that my FAMI - SALEF additional investment for January 21, 2015 has not been resolve.

This is what happened why this problem again happen to me. I invested at 12: 35 AM on January 21, 2015 via my Unionbank account and the process was successful, meaning the money was successfully  been deducted to my account, there was a Cyber Receipt that I kept for reference. I thought it is all good and I will just wait 2-4 days for them to send me the confirmation receipt that will be directly send to my house via the Air 21 as courier. I've been doing additional investment every month since i am using the cost averaging method and my target for this is 5 years, I've started on March 2013 until now, so I am doing it regularly. But last month of January I never thought their would be a problem on that added investment I made. So days passed I check my FAMI Portal account if it was credited but ohlala it is not! Even a single peso, there was none that is visible on my account. Then I decided to email their customer service plus their Facebook account to know about my problem.

I got no reply from them, even a single reply there was none, so days passed I got a reply and they are asking me some information for their verification purposes and I give it to them. They said thank you for the verification purposes and they will get back to me after their operation team solve it. Then I got an email and it is said that "Please provide complete details of investment including  time of deposit and branch code po. kasi hindi po nag rereflect sa bank statement po namin . " So I provided them again the time of deposit that is reflected on my cyber receipt plus the bank code yesterday, I even attach again the cyber receipt. But until now I got no reply.

This kind of issue with FAMI is what I don't like. When you invest there was a delay or sort of this kind of problem that your investment could not be credited to your account. How come this is happening? My bank has no problem deducting the amount I invested since it was successfully been transferred to FAMI. I have high hopes on Mutual Funds like FAMI but this kind of problem is not really funny. I've been working hard almost 8-12 hours a day and investing on them is my retirement plan but they again fail my expectation :(

I do hope and pray this problem or issue will be resolve soon. I will not invest on them again this month if this issue will not be solve.

Till my next post.

Cheers,

Belle De Jour Power Planner 2015 Has Arrived!

Hi,

I should have written this post yesterday but I was too busy with work, I have sleepless nights this week :( .

I have received the Belle De Jour Power Planner 2015 yesterday at 9:00 am in the morning. The mail man buzz our doorbell and he handed me the package, yay the smile on my face was very wide when I received it. :) I consider this planner as a gift to myself this year since I really need to be organized. I've been very disorganized last year and this planner would be the answer for this attitude this year 2015.

When I open the package I was impress on the cover of the planner, it was hardbound, girly and classy, my type of planner. I've been eyeing on this planner for about a 2 or 3 year already and been wanting to have this very badly but i am not financially capable at those times, so this year is a blessing because I had it finally on my hand. I've also join the contest of Kristine on her Real Asian Beauty blog but I was not pick as the winner, so I've been a bit sad about that. But the hope I had to have this planner has not  banish so I did order on the I Love BDJ website via paypal payment. Actually I had joined the contest of Kristine for me not to be able to buy this anymore, the frugal lady attitude of mine strike me that is why I joined, hehe. But for this planner, I am willing to spent PHP 598 just to have it. I also want to reward myself this time around. I actually loved to write and read, I have my notebook which is given by a friend to me where I usually wrote my feelings if I am sad, happy or anything but that notebook has few pages left for me to write on so I decided to buy this planner.

At first glance on the pages, I am quiet confused on the pages, haha. I don't understand the MIT section of the planner at first but when I browse their FB Page, it was meant to be a "Most Important Task" haha now I know what it is. The planner has a section where you can write your goals for 2015, a Happiness List, the Dream Board, 2015 BDJ Checklist, and many more. For a PHP 598 Planner, this is really worth it :) and I love it very much!Yay I am soo happy :) I take some photos of it, see below:

The cover

First page

I started 4th week of Jan, I started Jan 22.

Then put my schedule for this month, this is not yet complete.

Thank you God for letting me having this power planner this year 2015 :) I am looking for a better Angelie this year. My motto this year is "Worry less = Happy Angelie" :)

Till my next post.

Cheers,

Late Christmas 2014 Update

Hi,

How are you? It is now January 2015 and this post was very late for me to do but I think it's better late than never, right? :)

My 2014 Christmas celebration was a blast!!!I cannot compare it to the other Christmas celebration I had because this Christmas was being spent with my entire Dag-uman family, my mother's maiden family name is Dag-uman so it was very rare for us to  be together especially during Christmas. Most of my cousins and aunt are already living far from us so it is very impossible that we can be together often but this time it became possible. I am very blessed and happy it happened last year. God is so amazing! :)

My mom's sister's and brother came into our house to celebrate Christmas with us, it was not actually planned but it happened, it does not only surprise me but it does surprised my mom a lot, seeing her happy make me a happy daughter too. I then immediately went to the city to buy gifts for them and I don't care how much I spent but as long as I can share to them the blessings I have in this precious moment of the year. We had a little games played during the evening and it was very fun. My Auncle, Cousins and Aunt's danced in our very small living room area. Below are some of the photo's I got during the Christmas evening.

Happy to receive their gifts :)

Dag-Uman Family (Sister and Bro of my Mom+Cousins)

The Gifts

My Mother and Grandma

Mother and Me

It was a very happy Christmas indeed! Jesus made it possible for my family to be together on his birthday. I love you Jesus :)

My next post is about my Christmas vacation, so watch out for it! Till my next post.

Cheers,

November Life Update

Hi Everyone,

Few more minutes to go and December is really here,yeah Christmas month is really here!!!I am super excited what will be December is for me and my family.

The month of November is not a soooo good month for me. I will tell you the details of why it is not.
In my last previous post to this blog, I have wrote about my November 2014 Budget and Plan. My Budget plan was a failure or I mean I failed doing it :( sad it is! no matter how I tried organizing and budgeting it does not succeed every time I do it, I even downloaded an app to my phone to track my expenses each day but it turned out bad, I had used it only for a few days and later on I stop using it. Arggg I don't know why I can't succeed in budgeting. But I am hoping that one day I can succeed doing it, it was really hard but I will really try again.

Despite the unsuccessful budgeting scenario, my November 2014 plan turned out well. Out of 5 plan I listed, I had successfully did the 1, 2 and 3, that plan is listed in my post here. I am happy that out of 5 I was able to do at least 3, I am building up again my emergency fund plus my FAMI-SALEF investment is growing, I mean I was not able to skip even a 1 month of adding an additional investment to it even at least at its minimum of PHP 1k.

Then the plan to enroll again in my Master's class continues for this 2nd semester, I was able to enroll 6 units, 3 units each for its subject. I enrolled 9 units last semester but this time around I cannot anymore manage to enroll 9 units because of my workload online plus the 6 units I enrolled this sem includes the Research Methodology subject which we will already start to write our own thesis, yeah thesis!This time around it is a Master's thesis so I did expect a difficulty on it , it is very different than the Undergraduate Thesis. My class is every Sunday only, I choose every Sunday because Monday to Saturday I am fully loaded with work to do. This afternoon when we had our 2nd class, my mind is full of questions like: Is this problem I choose for this thesis is really what I want? Can i do this? Do i have resources to do it? How will I do it? There are still a lot that is on my mind right now :( But I do hope I can really do it, please pray for me :)

Now, the worst part that I am gonna tell you on this post was the issue that happened to me this month. Well the issue has been settled already last few weeks of this month but still I want to write it here just to burst out what I feel. This is an issue with a guy in the community I am serving for almost 2 years, I had encountered many ups and downs while serving the community I belong but I endure all of those but I don't know that this time around I was really affected. Maybe because I have also some issues on myself that I don't know why until now it still existed. In this blog I have wrote about me being single, and until now I am, it's not that I am too picky, or no one dares to appreciate me but maybe the Lord has a better plan for my love life. I am now 26 years old but I was not able to experience yet being in a serious relationship, the word serious means really serious to me, meaning the guy will not only tell his intentions to me but also to my family, it has not happened so I guess it's not yet the right time. The issue that happened this month was, one member of the community who is a brother/male/guy posted something in our community page that affects me, he is posting it because he pity the guy who I did something wrong daw!That guy whom he said I did something wrong sent a group message to all citing that I did say bad to him when we meet at a mall here in my city. When I read the post and someone told me about that text message, my reaction was WHAT???WHAT IS HE TALKING ABOUT??? :( :( ...I got really mad an instant, yes instant!Why? How I can say something bad to him if I did approach him and offer my hand to shake with his but after that I said I must go now because I have also a friend who is waiting for me. That guy I approach misinterpreted my action. Then the member posted after a week or so onto our FB page about what happened. That is the last stroke that my patience has gone, I didn't even react about the text message and the false judgement about me. But that post is very rude, disappointing, and BIAS! Well this issue has been finished already now and I learned my lesson also. The lesson was, don't react to any bad comments, FB post, or any person who tells you that you did this or not if it is not true! If it is not true then don't ever react, really a lesson learned. We are only human, we commit mistakes and sometimes if other's say something bad about us we instantly react. Social media like FB, Twitter, Instagram has some disadvantages too, anyone can say something bad or good about you so it's up to us if we will entertain those or not. We should all be responsible on each of those social media we are using.

This post is a bit long, hehe but forgive me since I am not always posting on this blog. Till my next post :)

God Bless Everyone!Happy Sunday and Merry Christmas!!!Yehey!!!!

Cheers,
