Looking Down from the Sky

How high can one go when looking down? This high?

Flying High

Though of course I’m not so sure if local flights fly as high as international flights, still, it’s a long way from where I am to where I’m looking down 🙂

To The Beach

When we had our day tour at the beach last week, I felt happy and at the same time sad. Happy because I am spending a relaxing day with my hubby and sad that I can’t wear any swim wear to spend this day. Ugh, I’d be an unsightly person had I done that.

I remember a running joke a SIL made of herself, “whale watching”. That could be me alright and I’m not laughing at the joke anymore.

Been on the look out for something that will make me lose some of those unsightly pounds. A friend suggested I try herbal supplements while another one said to try myoripped and still another said I better make serious commitment to run more and eat less.

I know these suggestions are good but everything else is up to me.

Baby Alive Doll

Baby Alive dolls are cute. They cry. They laugh. You can feed them. You can also change their (very expensive) nappies. They look real, hair and skin tone and all. Depending on the children’s “color” orientation of course.

But my children don’t like ’em because for them, these dolls are scary. Tried to discourage them otherwise, especially the younger daughter but “No can do” for these dolls for her.

Oh well…*shrugs shoulders*

Porsche 911

I’m sure a lot of guys out there would love to give this mean machine a try. The car? A Porsche 911.

Why, even our President got himself a pre-owned Porsche but that is a different story altogether.

A car is a car but a Porsche? Who would call a Porsche a car? It is a Porsche, whether it’s a 911, a GT3, Carrera GT or even the Cayenne.

It feels like it has testosterone supplements in the gasoline that keeps it revving. But nah, the machine is superb and the brand wouldn’t come a long way if that’s not the case. Even little guys who love fast cars love Porsche.

Walter Roehrl, a rally legend during the 70s and 80s and a senior test driver for Porsche said that the engine so so good and “That is the reason I like this car, because it’s not the power, it’s the response of this car.”
