Wrong Info

It was a crazy day, my husband and I wake-up early today for another photo shoot. It is another tournament that held in a country club near in Dallas downtown. We are not taking our meal this morning because my husband is get hurried and not to be late for the set-up for his stuff, preparing things that he need for the group and individual shoot. I would say that setting this up require a lot of time, and patience. You have to make sure everything is ready and go especially preparing the meter, flashes, tripod, battery, filter lenses and the most important is camera. My husband is already prepared this last night, but setting-up in other places is different. We arrived at the place where the tournament was held, my husband was looking for the person who is in charge for photo shoot event. Few minutes later he come back and tell that the person he suppose to met is not around. The security guard help him to look for this person, but this guy can’t give him enough information since today is his first duty (new hired) So, my husband looking for this person for the entire place, whereas me waiting on the car, hungry and sleepy (lol).We stayed there for one hour hoping this person to come, unfortunately nothing. We finally got the information and my husband was surprise when she said that the photo shoot suppose to be schedule tomorrow (Good Lord) we got the wrong info from the person who contacted my hussband to do this job. Ay yay yay… We ended up looking cars instead, so we headed home exhausted and hungry.

My Big Sister's Advice

Cooking is not really my line ever since when I was a single. That’s the reason why my sister always telling me to look at her when she cook food for her family. Well, I am not living with my sister when I was in Manila, but my apartment is just few steps away she lives, so there no reason why I can’t join her cooking the food. Well, there some certain things that keeps us away for doing this, and for busy at work is the first reason why I never had a chance to cook even my own food. I just knew a very simple and quick process like fried fish, nilagang bangus, and fried rice (lol). Don’t blame me because this is the only way I could do better during my hectic life. Just Imagine I am working 8 hours a day and sometime 9 if its necessary. Excuses..excuses..excuses the bottom line is I have my sister to provide my food to eat and also fast food is quick to access (lol). I just give her money to buy the ingredients that we need for dinner. Anyway, this a constant battle when I move here in the United States. before I left the country, my sister always asked me “ What kind of food are you going to cook for your husband” The answer is, “ I don’t know”. The quickest answer to her question (Sigh). So, here I am alone no big sister to run to assist me when I need her. I miss my sister very much, she always give me a advice when it comes to this matter. She gave lots of recipe, I try to cook most of them , but only few of them are successful (lol) sometime its salty hehehe. Well, it’s necessary to listen your big sister all the time, that’s the only things that I can give for youngest child of the family (like mhe). Don’t ignore them because in the future, you will be benefited all the advice they give you.
