Highlights of 2013

Part 2 of my last post. 

Adopted a dog & started this blog---

My best friend Meryl asked me if I want to adopt a mini pinscher. At that time, I haven't recovered from my lost when Ungga bear and Nikki died but I said yes right away coz I know that it will help me move on. They said replacement is the key for you to move on, but that doesn't apply in my case coz no dog can ever replace the love and loyalty Nikki and Ungga gave me. All dogs are unique, just like humans.

Anyhoo, when I took the mini pinscher home, he didn't walk. He jumped and hopped like a baby kangaroo. That's why I named him Hopper, he's a jumper. You can find the rest of the story here. 

Few days after I adopted baby Hopper, I got inspired & started this blog. I will be celebrating my blog's first anniversary in 3 months! :-)

Quit my job and went to a special wedding---

After staying with the company for a while, I got a home-based job offer and quit my day job. I made a stupid decision coz after a month, the SEO company shut down and they gave all their employees a big amount of money as separation pay. Son of bee! Hahaha!

The day after I resigned, I went straight to Batangas and attended my best friend's wedding. The entourage danced "Gentleman" by Psy when we were ushered to the reception. The flower girls danced like no one was watching them, it was funny and cute! After dinner I was called to give an impromptu speech and as usual, I stuttered a lot coz I'm not used to public speaking. I could say that it's one of the best weddings I attended coz I witnessed their love story from the very beginning. (courtship to wedding day) ^_^

2013 Recap

Hola Amigas!

Uh-oh! It's been 2 months since my last post, sorry KTlifestyle blog. I was kinda busy and my life was kinda messed up 2 months ago but I was able to get up so I'm back on track now. (OMG what happened?!) You don't wanna know, it's freaking boring. If I tell you, I'm sure you would close this window right away and you would continue reading Fifty Shades. (I knew it!) Drop it girl! It would turn you into a nymphomaniac. LOL just kidding! I haven't even started reading it so no judgement. But one thing's for sure, if I read it, it would make me go ohh-lala just like my girl friends said. Bad influence amigas! Tsk Tsk Tsk... :)

Anyhoo, since it's already 2014, I wanna do a quick recap on what happened last year. Whether good or bad, I'm gonna share it since it's my personal blog and most people who read this are my family, close friends and virtual friends. (virtual hugs to you guys!) Thank you!

  

Ungga bear and Nikki died ---

It was a sad New Year's day for us. Here's what happened... We went to the province for Christmas celebration and left our 3 pets in Divine Life Pet Clinic in P.Tuazon. We left them coz there's no more space in the car, my 2 cousins and I were sitting on the back seat and we can barely move so the best thing to do is to get a hotel for dogs. My best friend Michelle recommended that clinic since she knows the owner.

2 days later, I went back to pick them up and when we got home, 2 of my dogs look sick and they no longer want to eat... I called the clinic and asked them what happened coz they were healthy when I left them & now they're freaking sick. I'm like, "Did they get a parvo virus or something?" They told me to bring them back for check up. The veterinarian did a fecalysis and told me that there's a lot of worm in Nikki's poop. She told me that we need to deworm so she can be healthy again. I agreed to do it since she suggested it and I have zero knowledge about dogs since Ungga bear is my 1st pet ever.

Few days later, she became ill. Not only her but also Ungga. I got really worried so I brought them to another Veterinarian (this time, an older, more experience vet) He told me that they shouldn't deworm a puppy if it's weak coz it will only get weaker. Nikki was confined at the clinic while Ungga stayed home with prescriptions. 

2 days later(January 1st), they both died. I saw Ungga bear catch his last breath... I broke down and sobbed like a child beside him. (damn I'm teary-eyed now) I called my vet and he said bad news, "Nikki just died few minutes ago." I shed tears, it was so heart-breaking. 

I tried to gather myself up and called Divine Life Pet Clinic. I told the lady vet about what happened. Instead of making me calm down, she yelled at me and told me not to blame the clinic for my pets' death. F*ing bitch! I cursed in tagalog and hung up when the owner picked the phone. I'm sorry but she doesn't have any customer service skill. Anyhoo, that's about it. It was a nightmare. It took me 4 months before I was able to move on. I'm sure Ungga and Nikki are in dogs heaven now. RIP.

Bike Riding

Dear KT's blog, 

It's been a while since I wrote, I said before that I will blog like twice a week, but now it's been almost 10 days. LOL! Anyways, been busy lately. What do you expect, I work too hard! Prrrrt! You know I'm kidding right? It's not in my vocabulary to work HARD. Maybe just a little but not too much. I have to save moneyyyy! Anyhow, I've been away lately, I went to the beach and snorkel w/ mom. Ya that's why I'm so tanned now. I love brown skin like Rihanna! :p If I can only stay in the sun for long hours without damaging my skin, I would. Anyways, I want to share my tiny eetsy bike experience. 

Election 2013

We just voted. As always, Hopper the photobomber! ;)

Amazing Grace

It's been a week since I was in the province for my grandpa's wake. I'd like to share a video of my second cousin, Ingrid, playing a recorder. On top of that, I also want to share a poem that changed my outlook in life. I found this amazing poem in my grandparent's restroom door, it's called "WHAT WILL MATTER" by Michael Josephson". 

Hopper -the hyper dog

Hi I'm Hopper! I'm 2 months old mini pinscher. I like to hop like a baby kangaroo. The first time I entered mommy KT's house, I hopped crazily instead of walking. I did this to impress her, Meryl(my 1st mom) and Shalom (her sister). They all laughed when I did that, so that's how I got my name, "Hopper". I think it fits me well because if you look closely, my face is really like a baby kangaroo. But of course, I'm more handsome than them. Teeeeheee!!! 

Here are some of my photos taken by mom:

I'm a big dog in a small dog's body.

Hello cyber buddies!

New blog at last! I've been blogging since 2011 but I deleted it because it's like an online diary that is too personal. Yeah like top secret! Bwahaha! Anyhow, on this blog I will write about art crafts, food, travel, fitness, and fashion. Basically anything that interest me. This blog is will be updated once or twice a week (okay! Maybe daily if I'm inspired enough to write stuff).

Today is Sunday so I'm going to share something about my favorite bible verse. Jeremiah 29:11
