The Rugged Sport of Wrestling

I sometimes watch UFC Mixed Martial Arts and every time I do, I cringe at the violent matches. But a lot of people enjoy watching this and many have started taking on the sport. It is a must though that you are an expert in any type of martial arts and that you are very passionate about winning. Anyhow, the right equipment and gear are always needed in wrestling. There is an online store called Suplay.com that sells products like wrestling shoes, headgear, kneepads, T-shirts, accessories, wrestling singlets and many more. Also remember Suplay.com for wrestling mats and mat accessories that withstand wear and tear of everyday fighting.

Downloading New Music

When we decided that we will dance during the Family Day at Alex’s school, I was hesitant but deep inside, I was thinking, “This is it! This is my chance to dance again!”. I missed dancing. Now, I feel like dancing every time I hear certain songs.

We practiced our dance for four days, 3 hours per day. And yes, because we listen to music, the same music for three hours, I got this last song syndrome (LSS) when I got home. It is actually a good thing for me because somehow, I got updated with the kind of music and artists we have now. Sorry to say that I am still very stuck in the 90s. Hello Spice Girls, The Corrs, Savage Garden, Britney Spears, and all the boy bands you can think of. LOL.

Alex has her own LSS too! She kept on singing “Hey I just met you and this is crazy. But here’s my number, so call me maybe.”. So since early this evening, I have been downloading music online. And guess what, I have a new feel good song. It just makes my head and upper sway (I am sitting). I feel like doing pas de bourre and LA walk every time I hear it and I do not get tired listening to it. Check out One Direction’s What Makes You Beautiful and let me know what you think. 🙂

The Week That Was

It has been more than a week since this site was updated. Pardon me. The endless raining brought about by the monsoon left me with two very active girls for the whole day for the whole of last week due to suspended classes. This momma was dead tired by night and so she slept when they did. 😀

Alex enjoyed the whole week of no school, although there were times when she said she missed her school and her friends. She busied herself with art work, running, story-telling, art work, running and so on. And since she is not accustomed to sleeping in the afternoon as this is the time is is in school, it was very hard to make her rest. For the whole week, she will just sleep for an hour in the afternoon.

Maxyn, is still herself, nothing changed. Well, since her big sister is around, she sort of demanded more attention since she is not used to her having around in the afternoon.

Since I was busy keeping the kids busy, I forgot to check Alex’s notebooks. I found out that pointers for exams was already pasted in her ntbk #1 last Friday. It was weekend already and I did not want to alter our routine so we did not study. That means, to this date, this mom will be busy making reviewers and tutoring the preschooler.

Hope you all are safe and sound.
