Quick Update #6

The past months seem to have passed me by so quickly that I barely can remember how I was able to accomplish a ton of my responsibilities. I feel like I'm too occupied now that I'm starting to feel numb of anything stressful... not in a good way.

However, looking back, I am thankful and honored to be given so much opportunities that I am ashamed to admit that there were days I'm complaining about how busy I am. I am well aware now that I should be grateful that I'm able to do what I love, learn and make money out of my passions in life. How lucky and blessed can one get? :)

With that said, I feel like I needed to give a quick rundown of what has happened to me or any important update in my life that is worth mentioning here.

Here we go...

• Our food blog Certified Foodies celebrated its second anniversary last month. Now, we're running a series of giveaways featuring our top favorite products and restaurants from the past year. So, make sure you join if you fancy any of the prizes we're giving away. :)
  
  I'm also very touched by the amount of generosity we got from the sponsors of our giveaways. I hope next year will be the same. :)
  
  
• I finally bought the elliptical bike trainer I've been mentioning here like a gazillion times already. My parents are using them religiously (I think), and I'll be starting my workouts next week after I've cleared my long to-do list.
  
  
• I have done a couple of improvements in my room, including buying a new mattress to address my back pains. I also bought a new dresser, which I'll be blogging about on Pinay Reviewer so stay tuned! :)
  
  
• Sad news that our pet kitten Heidi passed away. Good news is in a few weeks, we'll be welcoming new puppies AND kittens into our lives. Again, I'll blog about that next time.
  
  
• My nanay and I agreed to join forces financially to complete the renovations here at home. It's rainy season again and we're desperate to get our ceiling fixed right away. Hopefully, we can get this done by July.
  
  Also, we gave away our old sofa. We're hoping to replace them with new living room solo sofas or chairs very soon. I mentioned to them that I'm hoping to see if we can maybe apply for the TV show Extreme Makeover. Is that still on? I would love indoor fountains, new lamps, and exquisite lighting fixtures to beautify and brighten up our home.
  
  
• We're booked on a Bohol trip in October to celebrate my brother's birthday and mine. I can't wait! It'll be my first time to see the Chocolate Hills.. and tarsiers! :D
  

There are a lot more I wanted to share, but this space is not enough to list them all down. All I can say is I am happy with where I am now, and I look forward to what's in store for me in the future. :)
