Fave Thing: Chicken Pad Thai Noodles

Last night, I cooked Pad Thai Noodles, a recipe given to me by my sister which became ONE OF MY FAVORITE DINNER MEALS. My sister and I always share recipes with each other, therefore, we can able to share it to our own family as well and enjoy more of cooking different meals every week.

Anyway, I forgot to take a video of myself when I cooked Pad Thai dinner last night. First, I boiled water for rice stick noodles then, soak it for 10 minutes.

Then, for Pad Thai Sauce, all I did was saute the meat first where I had chicken, then, put the scallion, granulated peanuts, and bean sprouts. Then, after 5 minutes, I mixed with the rice sticks noodles and done!

Moving Out Again...

On this coming weekend is our moving out day from our old apartment home. So, by then I am busy again packing and loading all our stuff and unloading them again. We don’t really wanted to move out, but since this apartment is old and really disgusting, we have to. Why? Well, if only this apartment have a proper maintenance of cleanliness, I would definitely stay here for more than years. But, then, this place is gross, roaches is crawling in the middle of the night, red ants are everywhere, spiders are on the ceiling, even house centipede and millipede are here. I would never hesitate to move out especially when I have a toddler in the house.

Anyway, we already called them about it, but seem like they don’t even care. Also, when we told them that there are roaches and ants, they just came in with their own bugs spray and will just asked us, where the heck did we find the ants. So, I just told them, on the spot where I usually saw those ants, and that’s where they only spray it. I was like what the heck; I thought they are going to spray the whole house to totally get rid of those ants. So, by the next time I told them about the ants, I just told them we saw those ants at the whole house. so they spray all the corners of the house. Since then, I never had seen any red ants anymore, except with roaches and huge black ants. I could not take it anymore. Also, their kitchen is so disgusting and it smells, even though I sprayed them with an odor eliminator, still does not work. I can’t really wait to move out so soon.

Now, I am starting to pack some stuff we don’t often use, then, I already started to clean some of the area, so we can get our deposit, of course. Good thing, I don’t have classes anymore because now I have time to take good care of it and do everything done before our vacation on this coming last weekend of July.

Classes are Over!

Finally, the nightmare is over! No just kidding, going to school is the best thing that ever happened to me so far, especially when taking college courses in a foreign country. We all know that a lot of people actually find it very challenging and hard because of speaking English every minute of the day is unusual as more than those who are not native English speakers.

Anyway, my spring classes that I took last May is over! It was a relief for me because since January of this year, I had been to school until yesterday. I have been ranting and rambling about it because I was so hesitated about the idea of going to school on spring time but I guess it’s all worth it and now I am quite happy that it is all over (for now)! Well, yes for now because today is the beginning of a fall semester registration, so obviously, I have to register new classes again which will start this coming August 28.

Well, I still have a month of vacation and I am looking forward to it that it would run slow because I am not ready yet to be in school so soon again. As of now, I am just so excited for our upcoming vacation; it is an out of state vacation which is pretty exciting for me!

Benefit of Healthy Coffee

When it comes to drinking coffee, I am not a heavy drinker. I only drink when it is necessary like when I needed to study for my exam or when it’s cold and I feel like drinking it because hubby was drinking too. I never drink any hot coffee, though. It could ice cold coffee or flavored ones. I know that coffee is necessary as well because it will help us energize. But, we all know that some coffee is not really safe to drink or to be overuse, therefore, choosing a healthy coffee is necessary. I have found a healthy coffee online called gano coffee. Gano coffee is a healthy coffee because of its 150 different antioxidants and 200 total active nutrients which are best alternative for regular coffees. It is also helps to balance the PH in our body. So, if you want to be healthy, just drink a healthy kind of coffee.

Back from Vacation

Actually, we came home last Sunday night at around 11 pm from our 4th of July vacation. It was a long trip for us because the traffic is too heavy and we could not able to arrive on time as what the GPS told us. Anyhow, we left last Friday at around 11 am, then we arrived at Rogers City like about 6pm which supposedly an only 4-hour trip, but due to heavy traffic, we arrived after 7 hours of trip plus we have to stop once in a while for my son to stretch out and just to avoid crabbiness and crankiness.
Anyway, we should left the house around Thursday night to avoid the traffic because it seem like all the people were heading up north which was eventually the cause of heavy traffic at the express way. Good thing we have a GPS that enable us to do routing.
Anyway, finally we came home, although hubby and I does not want to yet because we only stayed there for two days and two nights then we have to go back on Sunday because hubby has to go to work by Monday and I have an exam as well on the same day. So, I guess we have to just deal with and better luck next year. It was so nice up north, I can able to see deer again, and they were so beautiful especially if they were not on captivity.

Anyhow, I never had seen a coyote or a bear, but my mother in law saw a black bear when she arrived Friday morning. I wish I could see one too the whole time I was there but I guess they don’t want to be seen by me.
So bad, I don’t have the mood as well to take pictures while we were up there, so I don’t have that much photos of us. Good thing my mother in law took some and maybe will just ask some of the photos from her.
Well, I am back on track and of course, get back to school for two weeks until it’s over. I am so busy this week and next week due to my tests and final exams. Well, I am crossing finger here and I can’t wait for our next vacation but before that we have to move out again to a new home before the end of July. Well, absolutely, a lot of work for me after school.

Pinay on 4th of July

This is my fourth times to enjoy the 4th of July holiday whereas all of the US residents were celebrating, whether they went up north for camping, beach getaway, or just stay at home and relax or watch their favorite movies, then on the end of the day, all the people will enjoy a firework show. I have been to a couple of firework show since I came here in US, I remember the first one was at Rochester Hills here in Michigan, then at Saint Clair, then, twice up north by Lake Huron at Rogers City, Michigan and it is going to be my third time to see Rogers City firework show again since we will be going up north today for the weekend and we will be back on Sunday, hopefully.

Anyway, to learn more about United States’ Independence Day, it was all started on July 4, 1776, therefore, they always celebrated it every 4th of July and do so called. When US claimed their independence from Britain and so democracy was born. Every day thousands leave their homeland to come to the "land of the free and the home of the brave", that was (one of the sentence from the US national anthem) so they can begin their American Dream.


The United States is truly a diverse nation made up of dynamic people. Each year on July 4, Americans celebrate that freedom and independence with barbecues, picnics, and family gatherings. Through the Internet we are learning about and communicating with people of different nations, with different languages and different races throughout the world. Bringing the world closer with understanding and knowledge can only benefit all nations.



Well, hope everyone will enjoy the fourth of July, especially to the US residents. Hope you all have a good and fun weekend ahead!

Fragrance Allergy

Since I came here in US, suddenly, I have been experiencing an allergy that I never had most of the time in my life. Every time I smell a strong scent of perfume or cologne, I started noticed ticklish feeling in my nose and then I started to sneeze and then again, even catching a whiff of one of my husband’s body cologne. There are also some scent of perfume that will definitely made me sneezed uncontrollably and by the time I was done sneezing and I started feeling dizzy and just wanted to lay down. It was so awful to experience such an allergy; therefore, every time I gave my husband a perfume or cologne, I always have to make sure it is mild and not heavy like the Giorgio Armani's Acqua Di Gio. I have some couple colognes too that I ended up giving away to my sister because it really triggers my allergy and it really annoys me all the time. Therefore, when shopping for cologne, I always go to a new perfume store so I can able to just choose what is best for me. Well, I guess this is a good idea until I could find the perfect cologne that would comfort me at the same time.
