My Bedroom Plan

Posted by Boffill Thursday, August 19, 2010
I and my girlfriend are now planning the design of the house that we will build together. The plan is I'll be the one who's assigned for the structure and she'll be assigned for the displays and the interior design of the house. I know it is too early for us to plan the house design but I think it’d be better to do have a long term plan than having a short term plan of the house.


This morning, I was reading my girlfriend’s scrap book and there she wrote her dream house. She wants a two storey house. All the rooms are upstairs and the master’s bedroom should have a comfort room inside. I was actually impressed by her because she doesn’t want to have a very fancy house, she just want it simple. I liked it simple too. If that’s what my girlfriend want, then that’s the house that I’ll be constructing. The very important part of the house for me is the master’s bedroom, our bedroom. We haven’t talked about the bedroom yet but I already have a plan about it. The bedroom should have a comfort room of itself as what my girlfriend want it to be. There should be a very big mirror and a big cabinet for our clothes and personal stuff. With regard to the flooring, I want a wooden floor inside our room or yeah, all of the rooms in the house. Aside from that, I want a rug too beneath the bed. A cheap rug would do and I know a website that offers cheap area rugs, SuperiorRugs.com. I’d like to put a rug too in the living room. A fine soft rug that is made from pure wool is the ideal rug for the house that I and my girlfriend are planning to build. I think I already know what’s the reliable store to buy a cheap but quality rug, SuperiorRugs.

Being apart from the family is a bit hard for me but I was able to manage it when I grew up. I can still remember when I was at my elementary days when I was left by my parents to my Aunt in Cotabato City for a vacation, I never enjoyed it a lot and all I did was to cry in every single day of my vacation (kid stuff). When I grew up, I was able to control my emotions everytime there's someone from the family who's gonna leave and go to a different place. I am already used to it. But this afternoon, my father had a trip for Manila for his medication, I felt a bit sadness inside me. I know there are times that me and my father had arguements but it is really different when I'm with him. I felt proud with heads up everytime I'm with my father. I don't really know why. When we dropped him to the port of Cebu, all I did was to "mano" to him and then he checked in inside the terminal. well, I know my father would be back maybe after a few months but I hope he'll be back the soonest time as possible. All I can say now is, "Ingat Tay".

A Child's Ten Commandments to Parents

Posted by Boffill Monday, July 21, 2008
1. My hands are small. Please don't expect perfection whenever I make a bed, draw a picture or throw a ball. My legs are short. Please slow down so that I can keep up with you.

2. My eyes have not seen the world as yours have. Please let me explore safely. Don't restrict me unnecessarily.

3. Housework will always be there. I'm only little for such a short time. Please take time to explain things to me about this wonderful world, and do so willingly.

4. My feelings are tender. Please be sensitive to my needs. Don't nag me all day long. (You wouldn't want to be nagged for your inquisitiveness.) Treat me as you would like to be treated.

5. I am a special gift from God. Please treasure me, holding me accountable for my actions, giving me guidelines to live by and disciplining me in a loving manner.

6. I need your encouragement and your praise to grow. Please go easy on the criticism. Remember, you can criticize the things I do without criticizing me.

7. Please give me the freedom to make decisions concerning myself. Permit me to fail so that I can learn from my mistakes. Then someday, I'll be prepared to make the kind of decisions life requires of me.

8. Please don't do things over for me. Somehow that makes me feel that my efforts didn't quite measure up to your expectations. I know it's hard, but please don't try to compare me with my brother or my sister.

9. Please don't be afraid to leave for a weekend together. Kids need vacations from parents, just as parents need vacations from kids. Besides, it's a great way to show us kids that your marriage is very special.

10. Please take me to worship regularly, setting a good example for me to follow.
