What Minerva means???

Minerva is the Roman virgin goddess of wisdom, war, art, schools and commerce. The counterpart of Greek goddess Athena.

And my Mama named me Minerva..

What Minerva Means

You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don’t have to work hard for what you want. You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you’ll knock down anyone who gets in your way!You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It’s easy to get you excited… which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don’t stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start.You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You’re always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can’t handle you. You’re very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you’re likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You are very hyper. You never slow down, even when it’s killing you. You’re the type of person who can be a workaholic during the day… and still have the energy to party all night. Your energy is definitely a magnet for those around you. People are addicted to your vibe. You are usually the best at everything … you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic “Type A” personality.

Weight of what was

The “weight of what was” is actually a Ghost Whiperer episode title. For me, somehing else haunts me..My weight!! Yup, tried to weigh myself the other day and I was shocked! Really shocked at what came out. I gained so much weight. I remember before I got pregnant I only weighed 85lbs. having such a petite frame and I weighed 125lbs. until I gave birth. I immediately lost that pounds and from then on I was 95lbs. until the day I weighed myself..102lbs..

Now, how can I lost that extra pounds since I really can’t last a day without rice and with my personal chef (aka Mi Amour) cooking I don’t think I can do it.  But I guess I’ll start eating healthy this time by:

-consume half a cup of rice only

-drink lots of water

-fruit juice instead of soda, tea and coffee

-cut down on meat opt for fish and veggies

-fruits for dessert instead of chocolates

-muesli instead of fudge brownies (Mi amour’s specialty, oh my gosh!)

And this weekend, I will check some running shoes. I’ll start by jogging my way to slimville again as the bulges are coming to get me..

‘Gotta run..

If the shoe fits…

I’m thinking of buying a new walking shoes, actually I need to buy one (mi amour might read this post, I might as well drop a hint) as my ballet flats now shows signs of too much wear. I leave my work shoes at the office so to speak and after that I change into something comfortable as I do a little walking.

My little footsies would like these treats:

1) Nine West Lovable

2) Perlina Nadine

3) Frye Kat Mary Jane

I hope I could find these beauties as my problem in shoe shopping is my size, size 35. I remember when i shopped at Charles & Keith Serendra – The Fort, it was size 34. ‘Can’t wait to try them all..

Not so fine day.

I chose to name this blog “One Fine Day” as I would like everything in my life to be on a positive note and shy away from anything negative..But today, is an exception. Boy, I’m so mad, irate & furious today..I wanted to scream and then have a quiet moment to myself and cave in..Not in the mood for work..

Grabbed my Ipod and got lost in tunes. I got Storm by Lifehouse playing. In some ways, the lyrics were heartfelt.

       ” I know you didn’t bring me out here to drown
         So why am I ten feet under and upside down
         Barely surviving has become my purpose
         Because I’m so used to living underneath the surface.”

       “And I will walk on water
        And you will catch me if I fall
        And I will get lost into your eyes
        And everything will be all right
        And everything will be all right.”

Time to ponder..Life sometimes ain’t fair.

The kind of shoes I am.

You Are Loafers

You are confident, powerful, and successful. Hard working and business like, you always dress and act appropriately.You are consistent and a bit conservative. You aren’t really susceptible to trends, although you always dress well. While you tend to be formal, you know how to adapt to your surroundings. So are professional at work… but more laid back when your with your friends. You should live: In a huge city You should work: In a competitive field where you can rise to the top

What Kind of Shoe Are You?

Actually, I’m not sure about loafers but i remember I  had one in Grade6, it was Hush Puppies and i paired it with checkered shorts and fitted shirt kind of preppy look.
