Christmas is the most exciting Holiday for me. As soon as the year hits on the "ber" months, I really get excited. My heart leaps with joy whenever I hear Christmas songs and see Christmas lights and decors.
For Christmas 2010, I promised my little girl that I would set up a Christmas Tree for her since I was not able to do so the previous year. Early November, we started hunting for the perfect tree. I wanted it to be around 6 ft. tall but I wanted it to be a little compact since there is not much space around the house. Mid-November, we already found our tree! We got it from Metro Market Market. It was just what I was hoping to have.
We decorated the tree with small bulbed lights, silver ribbons and red balls - nothing too grand. Whenever we turn on the lights at night, Cherienne would get excited to the point that she would try hard to steal a ball or grab a light bulb. After several days of educating her of the danger, she gave up and just appreciated the sight with her little cute eyes.

If there will be people who will never ever leave your side no matter what you have done, whatever situation you are in, whatever circumstances you are facing, whatever mistakes you have made, through richness or hardships, through prettiness or ugliness, etc etc, they will be your family.
I am proud to say that I have the best family in the world! They may not be perfect but they have been there for me in every single battle that I've had since I was a little child. My mama, papa, my siblings - Crissy, Darryl, Dominique, Camille and Desmond - have been and continue to be very loving and supportive. We've been through all sorts of mishaps but at the end of each one, family bonds prevail.
Another family that welcomed me most warmly just when I needed it is my husband's family. They are a bunch of people with good heart. They never hesitated to treat me as their own. It will not be smooth sailing all through out I know as we settle our differences but it feels good to know that they are there for me and for my little girl Cherienne.
God has blessed me with so much. I can never stop thanking God for the greatest gifts he has bestowed upon me - Raymond and Cherienne. I've learned a whole lot from the 2 and a half years of everyday life with my hubby and I'm excited to learn more! I cannot live my life without him. Cherienne is the joy of my life. She has taught me to be strong and to keep on fighting. But with this, she also taught me how to slow down and appreciate life as it is. it's always amazing and refreshing to see life through the eyes of a child.
With them by my side, I know I can do anything and everything! 
The Corporate World tends to be stressful especially when things are just so crazy with rules not being followed and demotivation is everywhere. You can rant about everything but you certainly know that this will not change anything. You try to take a step forward but you are blocked by those who think they have the solution and will do everything to get what they want. It is tiring and draining. Work load is no problem but when the environment where you perform your tasks is all crap, stress will creep into you whether you like it or not.
Recently, I've been feeling all stressed out. First from the change in my schedule - from day shift to night shift - which I don't have a control of due to the nature of my work. Second is from the change in role - from a QAS to a QA Supervisor - which is really challenging and quite confusing due to the number of bosses that I need to deal with. Third is from the work environment I am in - just full of crap.
For the longest time in my life, I am breaking out with stubborn pimples all over my face. It's frustrating and sad. Good thing God gave me a very loving husband who cares so much on how I feel about everything and anything at all. He treated me to several sessions of Diamond Peel at Clarity Aesthetic Center in Market Market. I had my first session yesterday morning, Dec.02, 2010. The procedure lasted about 30-40 minutes, including the facial cleansing. After the session, my face felt so smooth though some pimples and marks were still there. According to the doctor, a continuous treatment is needed to achieve the desired result. So, I promise to distance myself, as much as possible, from all the negative vibes and just stay focused on what I have to do. And of course, I promise not to miss any of my Diamond Peel sessions!
