Upset

It's very hard when you expect something to happen and then you will find out later that it went wrong. It's like your heart is being squeeze hard and ypu want to cry but there are no tears coming out. This feeling has always been in me for a long time now. I have been upset about everything. Seems like everything has been taken away from me. And I feel depressed sometimes. Good thing is that I have soemone who truly understands and cares me so well. At least, life is not that bad to me yet. I just hope that one day I could find my inner peace.

Going Home Tomorrow

Hello Guys, our holidays are over and we will go home tomorrow. We are so dark already by exposing in the sun everyday.... I had a brown skin and now I'm almost black...ouch!!!! I hate it but I had no choice...My companions love exposing themselves in the sun.

Anyways, I would like to thanks to all my fellow bloggers who regularly visit me in this site especially Sheng, who are always there to say HI and I'm so sorry to all of you that I couldn't visit you back. I really tried but my internet connection is so slow. I'm only using a dial-up connection, so please forgive me for not paying a visit to anyone. But tomorrow, I'll be home and I will really visit each and everyone of you. Again THANK YOU and GOD BLESS to everyone

Davide's Birthday

Friday, July 18 was Davide's birthday. We celebrated it here in Isola d'Elba with new friends that we met here. We just shared a chocolate cake and drinks with plastic plates and glasses and then chatting until midnight. :))

At the Park in the Evening

Two straight evening we went to the park where the 5th Anniversary of a Political Party held. The Mayor of Verona City Hon. Tossi delivered his speech when we arrived there the first evening. But actually it was only my mother in-law who is interested in listening to the mayor's speech :) Davide and I were more interested for Leo to enjoy at the park. There are a lot of kids playing around with their parents. And Leo played with us too. He had really a great time, it was the first time we went in that park and Leo like it so much there...he didn't even want to come home anymore. And for that we stayed at the park until 12:30 before we decided to go home. The second evening it was just Leo, Davide and I who went there cause my parents in-law were invited at a birthday party of their friends. We went to the park at around 10PM and stayed there for a couple of hours then Leo asked for a french fries but then the bar at the park finished their french fries already so we went outside and looked for an open bar which have french fries...luckily we found one and Leo was so glad and ate all his french fries...then we finally got home at 1 AM. I know it was late already but since it's summer we always go out in the evening and come home late also...almost everynight :)). Anyways, here are some of Leo's picture on that 2 evenings in the park.

These are some of the pictures of Leo on the 1st evening while he was playing with me :)

This is the Park

Sign Language

Yesterday evening after having dinner in a restaurant with my family as usual, Davide and I decided to take a walk. We left Leonardo with his Nonni's at the restaurant. While having our stroll we met 4 tourists. They are French and they are looking where the Arena is located. They were lost and they asked us where they have to go to arrive at the Arena. They don't speak Italian, so I asked them if they speak English but neither of them speak english too. They don't speak Italian and English and we don't speak French. So we used sign language to understand each other. They had difficulty explaining to us where they wanted to go and we had difficulty understanding them but at the end we got it. And we instructed them where to turn to arrive at the Arena. Wheeeww, it was hard but Davide and I enjoyed it. Hehehe...and we recieved "Merce" after we understood each other. :))

Weekends - Dining-Out Time

Every weekends, on Saturdays or Sunday we always go out to have dinner outside either with friends or just the family. Yesterday evening, there were just the family, Leonardo, Davide's parents Lina and Umberto, Davide and I. We went out earlier yesterday 'coz we wanted to do another shopping for the new house before having dinner. We bought a new carpet for Leo's room, some toys again for Leo of course :), vases, some flowers and some accessories for the bathrooms. Then after that, we went to La Corte in Bussolengo, a famous restaurant especially for their pizzas. We were lucky that we arrived earlier at about 7:30 PM because if you'll arrive later than thatlike at around 8:00 PM, there will be a very long wait. Anyways, we had seated at a table with a good view to the garden. It would have been nice if there was a good weather 'coz you could eat outside at the garden but the weather this past week is not good...it continue raining and it's cool outside. After we seated, I asked the waitress if she could take a picture of us. And yes, she did take a picture. She is so nice and she likes Leo so much. So continue coming to our table to caress Leo's hair :)). Anyways, we ordered pizzas, and then some desserts after then coffee. And then after, we befriended a couple with a 4 yr. old son who were seated near us. They are so nice and Leo played with the boy named Filippo. Then at about 9:30 we decided to go home and on our way out we saw these groups of people in the lounge waiting for their turned to have an available table for them. Hhhmm...I wanted to tell them that next time come early so you could take a table a soon as you arrive but of course I couldn't do that...hehehe. Anyways, it's there problem not mine:))

Finally - I got DSL

Finally, I got my DSL internet connection. Yesterday, while doing the tagged from Janese the telephone company arrived to connect our line. Now, I could update my blog as often as I can. And you know what, before I would like to request other bloggers to exchange their links with me but I didn't do that because my connection was really slow. I was scared that they will add my links to their sites but I couldn't add theirs to mine and they might think that I don't want to do it. But now, since I have a fast connection please other bloggers I am asking you to exchange links with me. I really will add your links to my sites if you'll do the same favor for me. :)) I hope someone will reply me on this request. Thanks and Happy bloggings everyone.

Chasing the Rabbits

Saturday lastweek, Leonardo, Davide and I went to the park to let Leo play with other kids. But the weather was not that good and we didn't find any other kids around but instead we found rabbits. They are so cute and Leo wanted to touch them. So he started to slowly came near the rabbits but they ran away. So he started chasing them. He was enjoying to chased the rabbits and then he asked his father to get the rabbits for him and his father told him to be so slow and quite to be able for him to touch the rabbits. And so Leo tried it and he really was able to touched the rabbit and giggled a lot for his accomplishment. He was having a lot of fun that he asked us to come again the next day. Of course we can't say NO. Anyways, the park is just near where we are living now. We can go anytime we want and meet some new friends too.

Lake Garda

Lake Garda is one of the major tourists distination here in Italy, including a number of exclusive hotels and resorts along its shore. It is located in Northern Italy, about half-way between Venice and Milan. The lake and its shoreline are divided between the provinces of Verona (south-east),Brescia (sout-west) and Trento (north).

This is the sky-view of the lake (photo from Wikipedia)

The previous photos I've shared in my entry "Cruisin' Around Around Lake Garda" was taken at Malcesine which is part of Verona the south-east of the lake. Now I will share photos of the south-west part of the lake particularly in Desenzano del Garda in Brescia. This is a much bigger town than Malcesine and much more tourists and locals come here. There are a lot of fun things to do here too. Like:

You could just take a walk at its shoreline with your friends, your sweetheart or even just with your dog.

Or enjoy a ride with the Pedal Boats.

Or have a picnic at the shoreline and enjoy the scenery

or rent a motor boat and make a tour around the lake

And also, take a shopping for branded clothes at the shopping area at the center of the town. Or just take some coffe or icecreams at the bars located around the lake. See, that's why I like this place so much. You could just enjoy whatever you want to do and of course, it's near where I live. So, it's really an advantage for me :))

Piazza delle Erbe in the night

Piazza delle Erbe of Verona is the center of city life during Roman times. And now it continues its rules as a meeting place, home to the market and home of city's administrations.

It's where bars and pubs are located. Young and old people come here to meet old or new friends and have some drinks and a chat.

MY 10

I was tagged by my friend on multiply.com Richette to write my Top 1o priorities. And I told her that I'll do this, so I better start thinking the 10 important person, things and etc. that I have :))

First and foremost :) my SON

He is my life, my everything. The reason why I continue moving on. I'll do everything for him to have a happy and comfortable life and for him to have a good future, with the help of his dear father of course :) He is such an intelligent, sweet and loving child and I love him sooooo much!!!

2nd is my loving companion "Davide"

The father of my son and our provider. A person who will do everything as long as his son and I will have a good and comfortable life. He is very understanding, so caring and gives me everything I want as much as he can even though i'm so bad with him sometimes. We are so lucky to have him. :)

3rd is my Family in Philippines.

Yes, it's true that they are always there when we are down and no one else to turn to. They are always ready to accept you even if you made mistakes. Miss them so much.

4th is my Friends.

A faithful friend is a sure shelter and whoever finds one has found a rare treasure. I treasure these 2, they are always there to listen and give advices and always ready to give you comfort. Thank you Lenie and Charissa for always being there for me.

5th is my computer.

Eversince I've been here in Italy. I become addicted to it. My life will be boring without it. I talk to my family and friends from Philippines and around the world with it. It helps ease the sadness of being away from them especially when I see them on webcam.

6th is my Cellphone

I use it to communicate with family and friends, of course. Chatting on messenger is not enough for me. I call my family in the Philippines with it once a week and my friends every now and then. And use it everyday to call Davide and of course, I used it in taking pictures :)) It has an HD Camera in it so the it takes good pictures.

7th is my Clothes and accessories

These are just some of my collections. I'm a fashionista :)) and I always make sure that I look good everytime I go out of the house. I like to mix and match the accessories that I have with my clothes.

8th is Picture Taking

I like taking pictures not only of myself ;) but most of all is of my son. I would like to capture everything with what's new with him. And also, I enjoy taking pictures of nature and beautiful views. I just like it. It's one of my hobbies.

9th is my Car.

Can't go anywhere without it. I never ever ride a bus eversince i was here in Italy and i don't know how to ride one. What a shame!!! :( I got used of riding jeepneys and tricycles in the Philippines but I don't know how to ride a bus here in Italy. :)

10th is I'm saving for my future pet :)

Would love to have a small, cute, little dog hehehe... I am still continue bugging Davide to buy me one and he said that he is still looking since it's hard to find a small dog here and it costs a lot too. Hopefully it will be sooner.

So, those are my 10 and now I'm tagging Janese, Stella, Leizl, Camela, and Doreen

Leo's New Friend

Tuesday afternoon, when Leonardo arrived from school we saw this kid with his bike. His name is Giuseppe, an Italian-German kid and Leonardo makes friend with him right away. They are here for a week vacation and they live in the 5th house from ours :) Well, Leonardo and him got along well and they decided to go on a bike together. They even made a race many times and had a lot of fun. When they got tired, they decided to go home and promised each other that they will do it again the next day :)) or that they will play football. I was hoping that there will be a good weather the next day so that they could do what they wanted to do but sad to say it was raining. So, they were not able to play outside yesterday.

Today the weather is not that good but it's not raining either, so maybe we will go to his new friend later and will ask him if he want to play. Leonardo likes playing with him. He is a very nice kid and very charming too. :)

Here are their pictures on their first meeting. They are so cute. :))

Just an ordinary Saturday

Today is just like any saturday I have. My son go to his grandparents house and stay there for the whole weekend and I come with my husband to the store to help him. After closing the store my husband and I will have a dinner outside and then we will either go watch a movie or go to the bar and listen some music after dinner. But just a while ago, my mother in-law called and asked us if we would like to have dinner with them in their house. Of course we said yes, we will. So, after closing later on we will go directly to their house and join them for dinner. Then after dinner maybe we will go to disco or watch a movie. Hhmmm, we're not sure yet what we would like to do later. But whatever it is, I'm sure we will be having fun. So, 'til next time folks and Have A Great Weekend to all of you.

Leonardo's Field Trip

Last week, my son Leonardo went to a school field trip in "Vecchia Fattoria (Old Barnyard) in Bonavicina" with his classmates and teachers. They were having a lot of fun and my son couldn't wait to tell me what they were doing when he went home that day. Here are some of the pictures on thier field trip.

In the bus going to the Bonavicina

They were having a snack when they arrived.
