My friend from the workplace, Maria Margarita Jennifer Faicol (Mia for short), brought this cool website to my attention, www.dreamofdoll.com ,after she found out that I am an amateur doll collector. I am absolutely fascinated with dolls, I would definitely expand my doll collection and I would be posting pictures of course here in my blog once I have at least 50 in my possession.

Anyway, so she posted the web address at my facebook account (add me up by the way, you can search me by my e-mail add charmedwishes18@yahoo.com) and when I got into the sight, I was almost overwhelmed by the beauty of the dolls featured.

I wanted to buy a doll and have it shipped to me right then and there, however, when I looked at the price, I almost died! $69.00 was the cheapest pair not including the air freight and delivery charges. Sigh. Oh well, maybe I could save up and one day, I'll have even one doll in my hands.

Here's some pictures of the dolls I especially liked.

Hello guys! I am back! I am so sorry that I wasn't able to post anything for the last 2 days. Our computer had to be repaired (again) and I think we need a new hard disk. I am not sure how much a new one would cost though.

However, that's not all. When I went to sleep last Saturday, I was burning up with fever when I woke up. My fever was climbing up and down. It turns out that I had laryngitis. Pooh, I really dislike being sick! You feel so weak and the food you eat tastes like sawdust and your sense of smell is affected too, probably because of the medicine I was taking.

I have to keep this post short, my medicine is starting to make me drowsy again. I still have this dreadful cough, sigh. Take care and enjoy!

Thanks to those who left comments in my blog, I really appreciate it. Well, lots of things have been happening to me lately. So I guess I am kind of confused. Anyway, things will be better, I know and I would finally find the "meaning of my life" in Heaven's own time.

Something funny and kind of weird happened (again) to me yesterday, but this time it happned when I was on my way to work. I was walking towards our office and I was very sleepy, we were asked to render 1 hour pre-shift overtime and I didn't get enough sleep. And then suddenly I heard a voice at my side, asking me what time it was. I replied that it was almost 6pm.

I thought that was it, and I kept on walking. I noticed that he was walking in stride with me and suddenly he spoke again, asking me where I was going off to. I was suprised and I lokked at him carefully at that time and I noticed that he was a cute guy wearing a t-shirt and khaki shorts. I answered, just around the corner and then I walked a little faster, hoping to shake him off.

But he remained at my side and he asked me where I work. Of course, I was not born yesterday. I am not about to disclose personal information with someone off the street. So I just smiled politely and continued to walk. But the persistent boy followed me and finally he asked me if I wanted to get his number. The nerve! I almost ran, thankfully he got the hint and finally left my side.

I am of the opinion that he was a streetwalker. I mean, I don't think anyone would take notice of me like that. Besides, shouldn't he be asking for my number and not asking if I wanted to get his number? Hehehehe. Anyway, it kind of amused me at that time.

Anyway, that's all for now! I need to sleep already. Take care and enjoy!

Sometimes I can't help the feeling that
I'm
Living a life of illusion
And oh, why can't we let it be

And see thru the hole in this wall of confusion

I just can't help the feeling
I'm
Living a life of illusion

Sigh, sometimes I feel that my life is not real. I am still searching for the meaning of my life. Right now, I am living day to day: my life is one big routine. I eat, I sleep, I wake up, go to work, go home, and then repeat the whole process all over again. I get to thinking, is this all there is to my life? How monotonous!

However, there is still hope. I am always seeking ways to change my life, to make my life more happy and fruitful. I am sick of staying in my shell. I am willing to try new things. I want to break free, be more confident! I want to live!

Not making sense? Well, right now, I must admit I am still confused myself. I don't know where to start. But I will get there, nothing to worry about.

That's it for now, take care and enjoy!

Hello guys! I wasn't able to use the internet almost the whole day today. Its because today is my Daddy's 55th birthday. We had a small party here in our house and some of our relatives and close friends attended. Of course, we had to make preparations for the party (the food, cleaning the house, etc) and after all the guests left, we had to clean up afterwards. So I am one very fatigued person right now.

I will be posting more later when I wake up. Take care always and enjoy!

A long, long sleep, a famous sleep
That makes no show for dawn
By strech of limb or stir of lid, --
An independent one.

Was ever idleness like this?
Within a hut of stone
To bask the centuries away
Nor once look up for noon?

Well, time for me to sleep again. I hope you guys are doing all right. I am kind of saddened that one of the followers of my blog stopped following me. I don't know what happened, could it be because I posted something he/she didn't like? I am still glad though that I still have the remaining 25. I do hope someone will give me feedback.

Well, I will close this post here. I have been posting looooong posts recently, hehehehe, got a bit tired. take care and enjoy!

I once had a dream that seemed impossible
I kept on believing and hanging on
Waiting for it to come true
I was naive and childish
I didn't want to listen to the warning words
I didn't want to see the truth
I was selfish and wasted my tears for nothing
Sometimes, No...most of the times
We can't get everything we want
Dreams do come true
But not as we expected.

Hello guys! I found this site, www.freeflashtoys.com where you can make fun widgets like simpets, photo doll, etc. which you can use in your blog. I chose "Ask the Roses" which is like a guestbook where you can ask whomever who visits your blog any question answerable by "yes" or "no". I was amused by it because the default question was "Do you want to date me?". I just knew I would be able to put this widget to good use. I changed the question to "Do You Like My Blog?"



The fun thing is that if you answer "yes", I get a fresh rose and you can even leave a short message and url for me. If you answer "no", I still get a rose but it will be wilted. Whatever you decide to give me, please do leave me a rose. :-) I hope by the end of the month of September, I will have a vase full of roses! Please don't hesitate to leave whatever message you want.

The "Vase of Roses" is at the bottom of my page. This is only for fun! I hope you will participate. Well, that's all for now. Take care and enjoy!

P.S. You guys probably noticed that I changed my blog layout. :-) Hehehehe, in keeping with the blog name, "If Wishes Were Wings!"

Before I go to sleep, let me take this opportunity to thank my 23 followers. That's right, I now have 23 followers, I am so thrilled. Thanks and I hope you will continue to watch our blog (its not just mine now, its also yours) grow. Please don't hesitate to leave comments, positive or negative. I really want to hear from you guys.

I also want to say thanks to Lisa of Little Lovables for her very kind and generous offer. I joined Margaret's giveaway (see post for Teddy Bear Giveaway here) and sweet Lisa said that if ever I don't win the book to drop by her blog and she will give me something to compensate for it. Lisa, if you are reading this, I will definitely drop by your blog. Hehehehe. Please visit her blog too as well as Margaret's blog, their blogs are so cute.

When I was on my way home from work earlier, my officemate (her name is Marielle) and I noticed this bright lights near our office. I thought those lights were just placed there to attract customers but Marielle said that there must be a shooting nearby. It turns out that she was right, there was a film crew nearby shooting a scene in one of the bars there.

Of course, Marielle's curiosity was very piqued and I must admit that mine was too, however if I wasn't with her at that time, I wouldn't have gone there my myself. I would have been embarassed if I was turned away but luckily Marielle was there with me so even if that happens, at least I won't have to suffer the embrassment alone, hehehehe.

So there we were, I think the crew was playing back the scene they just shot coz the people there were just sitting around, tiredly watching and listening to this monitor (it was around 5am by the way, almost dawnbreak). I didn't see anyone famous there so I thought that it was probable just a commercial shoot or something. But Marielle quickly approached one of the bystanders there, I lagged behind, my interest just about dwindling. Then I saw Marielle light up like a neon sign and then excitedly getsured for me to come near. I approached her and she gushed out that they were filming "Lovers in Paris" (to those who are not familiar, its a Korean soap opera remake that is going to be shown here in the Philippines) and the actors filming were Assunta da Rossi, KC Concepcion, and Piolo Pascual!

Now, if it were just Assunta and KC (again, both are Filipina actresses), I wouldn't have cared so much and I probably would have watched with just casual interest, but Piolo Pascual! Gosh, he is my ultimate crush! When I finally saw him, I had to stifle my scream and I felt all shivery and weak inside. I was so upset I didn't bring my camera phone with me, I would have taken shotsa of Piolo. Then when he came so close to where I was standing, Like 7 feet away, I felt like I was going to faint! He was so cute and hunky! I swear, I was swooning.

Then it was over, they shot the scene and they went back inside the bar, probably to rest since I said they were working during that early hour, poor Piolo was probably tired to death. Anyway, I will definitely be bringing my camera phone with me later, just in case they will be shooting again in that place tomorrow!

Okay, that's all for now folks! Take care and enjoy!

In just a few more hours, we will be crowning the new Miss Universe for 2009. I am so excited to watch this, not because I am in anyway related to the Philippine delegate, its just that it will be another feather in our country's cap if she does win. I haven't had the chance to watch this girl's progress closely, but based on what I heard, she truly has a chance to bag the crown.

We only had 2 Miss Universe in the Philippines, Gloria Diaz (1969) and Margarita Moran (1973) and hopefully (keeping my fingers crossed), Bianca Manalo will be the 3rd Miss Universe. I love watching beauty pageants, probably because I love looking at beauty and enriching my life with it.

Which brings me to the subject of beauty. I have to admit, dear readers, that I am suffering from what is commonly known as "inferiority complex". If you have known me in person, you will know how shy and introverted I really am. I was never the life of the party, I never greet people first, afraid that they will ignore me. This started when I had the WORST case of acne when I was merely 13 years old. I was just about to start high school then and I had to transfer to another school, it was really difficult for me to make friends. I felt I lacked "beauty", physical beauty that is. I felt I was the most unfortunate person in the world. To add insult to the injury, my younger sister was starting to bloom at that time, so imagine how I felt when people say how pretty she is and then there I was, looking absolutely miserable.

But looking back on it, it was difficult for me to make friends that time not because the people around me alienated me, it was because of my very low self-esteem. As I said, I was painfully shy and I seldom talked. Some people actually thought I was mute, it was that horrible. But as time passed by, I slowly began to realize that its okay, even though I will never be voted as the cutest guy in school, what's important is how you project yourself. I felt that instead of being so down because I think I am ugly, why not bring emphasis on the things about me that people will like. I was a voracious reader and even back then I could speak English very well, that what set me apart from the others. I gained the reputation of being a very serious person, in my yearbook the comment underneath my picture was "Russel was neither popular nor outgoing but he is amiable".

The yearbook comment made me sad at first, I mean why do they have to point out me not being popular nor outgoing? Amiable, hmmmm. It makes me sound like I am so dull. Anyway, after graduating from high school, I tried to reinvent myself. I didn't turn into a wild person but I did my best to reach out. It worked, I think. Hehehehe. Until now I am still trying to resolve the issues I have within myself. Its not easy but hey, nothing worth having is ever easy.

Well, I am not sure if I am still making sense here, so I better go to sleep now, I still have to watch Miss Universe later. Let me close this with this lovely poem:

The beauty of a person
isn't in the clothes he wears,
The figure that he carries,
or the way he combs his hair.

The beauty of a person
must be seen from in his eyes;
Because that's the doorway to his heart,
the place where love resides.

The beauty of a person
isn't in a facial mole;
But true beauty in a person,
is reflected by his soul.

It's the caring that he cares to give,
the passion that he shows;
And the beauty of a person
with passing years only grows.


Take care and enjoy life!
