It is quite challenging to look for costumes for school plays. As much as possible, I don’t want to spend so much on costumes because they could not be used again. It’s ridiculous that some schools really require their students to have their costumes sewn in specific shops! And to think there are so many activities/plays within a school year. I guess it’s one of the reasons why I like my kids to be enrolled in public schools. Sometimes there’s just to many unnecessary expenses in private schools. It’s ok to buy some inexpensive wigs if really necessary… anyway it’s not really cost that much and plus we could use it for family gatherings, just for fun.
While I was looking for postcards at a local bookstore, I saw a lot of scrapbooking materials on sale. They also have books which contained ideas for scrapbooking layouts. Since it was on sale, I was really tempted on buying it and plans to make a project for my children but then, I didn’t. I really wanted to make one but in reality, I don’t have the time.
But since I was so inspired with the scrapbooking layouts I saw, I asked my friend who knows digital scrapbooking to make a blog layout using digiscrap materials for my other blog. She agreed and I can’t wait for her to show me the finish product!
Have you ever wondered why some buildings are constructed easily? Why some buildings before takes years to finish while buildings right now only takes months? Well, the answer is simple – technological advancements!
Before, you do the old way of constructing things, tying up cables to make beams, columns and walls. Now, you can create a metal building so easily! Why metal buildings? They are called this way because they are constructed in a way that metal reinforced slabs are just welded together. Since they are just welded and later reinforced with cement, buildings are finished in months!
