AHA Heart Walk 2012

My next blog entry was supposed to be a compilation of pictures and events that took place this past April. But since I still haven't gotten around to going through all the pictures, and picking out the ones I'd like to post, I'll just write about the Heart Walk.

Every year our team, RE:Joyce, which mostly consists of family and close friends, raise money and walk for the American Heart Association. We do this in memory of our cousin, Roxanne Joyce Solis, who passed away at age of 22 in 2003. This year's AHA Heart Walk took place at Lake Welch, NY on May 6, 2012. Our team raised over $2,000.  The place was beautiful, but the path was too narrow to do any power walking or running. The weather was okay... It was gloomy and cloudy... We walked around in fear of rain! LOL. But at least it  wasn't cold (or hot).  After the event, we went to my cousins' house to eat, chill, and ass out. LOL.

Oh... And please don't mind my eyes... They were all swollen from allergies. :(

Blast From the Past: Random Photos

Just for the sake of updating this blog, I am uploading random photos that were taken at various times in my life...

My love... my baby boy, Simba, playing in the snow...

There are more pictures, which I will post once I steal them from the sister.  In some of the pictures, the then boyfriend posed as if he were proposing to me... Who would have thought that he will actually be proposing to me less than a year later? :)

Me dressed up as Chun Li! My favorite costume ever!

 I'm almost caught up with my orders... Maybe I can properly update this thing before I take the next batch of orders. We'll see, I guess... :)

Blast From the Past: June 25, 2011

Since I am definitely behind in updating this blog, I have decided on writing a few entries here and there titled: Blast From the Past.  And each entry will feature an event or occasion that happened (in my life) that I feel like blogging about.  This "event" could have happened months ago, years, ago... whatever! :)

Honestly, these entries will probably be more of a photo dump than an actual entry itself.  LOL.

Today's Blast From the Past will be about the night of  June 25, 2011.  I chose to blog about this night first because it was the first outing where I actually used my then-brand-new Panasonic Lumix GF2 camera.  :)

The husband and I had a double date with my best friend, Carla, and her boyfriend, Lowell.  First, we went bowling at 34th Lane, then we went to Fayrooz Cafe and Lounge to do some hookah!  (This was my second time going to that hookah bar... The first time was on another double date with another couple.)  Anyway, they actually had a belly dancer! I wish I took a picture of her but I wasn't sure if I was allowed... Plus, I was too busy watching her dance! LOL.

Well, on to the photo dump... These are just some of the pictures we took.

Our colorful bowling balls... Mine was the pink one. Obviously. LOL.

I had a lot of fun that night... I can't wait to until we go to a hookah bar again. :)

Well, back to my knitting/crocheting.  I'm in the middle of developing an idea...

So... with my husband and family's insistence, I had relaunched my online store:

www.charmed.etsy.com

For the last couple of weeks, I've been busy filling orders, trying to get it to my customers in time for the holidays.  I would usually do this after I get home from my full time job, which means I am sleep deprived! I have averaged about 2 to 3 hours of sleep a night!  Thank God I have a very supportive husband. :)

Anyway, I should really get back to my orders... Maybe I'll take a break later and blog again. :)
