My first order of business as Dr. Dispo :
Give to the poor.
This is GOD ‘s callingHoly Father , Pope Francis spiritual mentor , Bishop Mike through Him , to the people .
How will you help ?
For the past few CHRISTmas es, to follow in the example of the blessed birthday celebrant , JESUS Angel Tree children and am donating more to the Salvation Army today after my Holy Hour .

And if we really are poor ~ in health, spirit, or otherwise ~ let us seek the LORD for strength to overcome.

Two-Day Game Warning: Almost the End of Regulation !
As I approach my Big Day (Public Dissertation Defense ) to complete my Doctor of Philosophy , my journey toward this ultimate goal may be drawing to a close while my next one toward my career advancement will begin.
However, my Ph.D. pursuit has helped me grow, not just professionally , but also personally , and most of all: spiritually . Furthermore, this undertaking couldn’t have been accomplished single-handedly: GOD’s grace provided, JESUS’ example was all-sided, and the HOLY SPIRIT’s light guided, in addition to Team Dr. D, who had my back. I forever will be grateful to the †Heavenly HOLY TRINITY† and my positive supporters here on Earth , who’ve rooted me on all the way , leading up to this Tuesday, December 8 ~ save-the-date
My next anticipated title this Advent : Tita Elaine .
We expect my future niece or nephew to arrive around CHRISTmas time ~ the very 1st grandchild of my parents , who recently celebrated their ♥wedding♥ anniversary . Yes, my family is very blessed . Regardless of these joyous times, I pray that we’ll always turn to the LORD , as we lead our lives here while preparing our eternal home in Heaven .
Sending peace and goodwill to San Bernadino, CA, in the wake of this terrorist tragedy. ✌

Double D is for …
D issertation D efenseD r. D ispoBiG D ay : D ecember 8 ~ Save the D ate!
After I passed my presentation with full faculty on Veterans’ Day , I followed my Bestie Evie
Take a Me QT Day.
While I still worked on revising my paper , I also set aside Spa Time this past weekend!
Facial Mask
Based on Fleur De Force ‘s The Glam Guide acne and **dark spots :
Manicure
Then I treated myself to an at-home mani with the following gift sets:
and polished my finger nails with my own lacquers:
O•P•I Got the Blues for Red & Sally Hansen 18K Gold Hardener + Revlon Orchid & Silver Screen + Sally Hansen i ♥ Nail Art Striper in black
My top tip to achieving a lasting nail paint job:
Run freshly coated nails in cold water and dodge hot water!
Cold water seals in moisture, while hot water repels and drys it out
If I hand wash dishes, I wear special gloves
I also wear gloves during hands-on activity
Massage
My good †Christian† friend and fellow prayer warrior, Lisa
Thank GOD for these special gifts of blessings and wonderful company!

If you’ve ever watched Funny Face Audrey Hepburn Quality magazine’s editor, Ms. Prescott made time to rhyme :
Think pink [especially for Breast Cancer Awareness]
Red is dead
Perfect for the approaching Advent /CHRISTmas season: Pine cones outside my school ‘s gazebo that I picked up after I taught speech today! (Fun fact: Last time I scored some was when I went snowboarding with my cousins at Lake Tahoe while I still lived in the Bay Area!)
Blue is through [including for my *Dallas Cowboys* denim tops]
I beg to differ, Ms. Prescott, because I don’t discriminate against any color … Bring on ALL of the above this season , everyday and always, please!
Bottom line: Fashion rules don’t dictate our lives + we may have pieces in our collection that’ll stay timeless.

‘Cause I have your back!
This Back-to-School season , check out my super saver tips for time, money and the Earth plus even your sanity …
Set out:
weekly wardrobe ~ clothes, jewelry , hair accessories, handbags, etc. (hang on a rolling rack or dedicated space to designate) #OOTDforDays
anything else that you need to get ready ~ especially your keys, in the same spot, and also specific hair tools & products, makeup , nail colors
Always check the weather forecast and have a back-up plan if an unexpected natural circumstance arises
Sleep in:
This has worked for me on a couple of different situations:
when I had my fitness classes 1st thing in the AM in college
when I worked at my hometown gym and exercised before work
Speaking of ♫working on my fitness, he’s my witness♪ {Fergie ‘s Fergalicious} …
Be Prepared {Boy Scout motto}
stash sneakers in your vehicle ~ so you have no excuse for a fun run on-the-go
pack change clothes ~ from working out to reporting to work or vice versa
This has worked for me on a few different situations:
when I hit the base gym before and after work after I graduated from college (YES, 2-a-days)
when I hit the university gym during lunch with my boss during graduate school
when I hit the college gym between classes that I taught
when I had my photography gig at the hospitals (during which I’d sometimes fit in a work workout ) before teaching at the College or ministering at Church
Bearing this in mind, make sure to pack
hygiene products (i.e., dry shampoo , deodorant ) ~ do your best to fit in a quick shower if there’s a locker room
dental hygiene products (i.e., floss picks , gum, mints) ~ so your breath doesn’t kick
I actually store deodorant and mini perfume bottles plus packs of gum in most of my purses plus my compact bag that I transport when I switch handbags
DON’T forget to eat! ~ Mami Aya Pinay & caring moms everywhere
double-duty edibles ~ such as coconut oil to substitute fatty oils in recipes plus is my favorite hair conditioner and also moisturizes skin, as well as removes makeup (according to The Sweet Life handy healthy snacks (not fast food) ~ such as apples, grapes (I dig mine fresh or frozen), pears ~ the pear or apple crisp can trigger brain juice flow, don’t ya know #DISPObustAFlow
chill your coffee ~ since I don’t drink as much for heartburn prevention, I store the rest in the fridge until the next day
Transitioning between seasons from cold cups to hot tumblers …
1-Stop Shop
☼Sunshine☼ Time
Get a daily dose of Vitamin D (as weather permits) ~ for health & happiness
Just make YOU Time
More than Scrub in the Tub
♪sing♫ in the shower ~ so cliché, but as someone who needs a nice-sounding voice for teaching , defending my dissertation , and most of all: ministering (leading in readings , prayers and song ) at Mass, I must warm up my ♫melody♪
stay fit as you suds up ~ stretch (with caution) as you reach for body parts to clean, and if you’re seated during a bath , I strongly suggest doing water pilates (think table top position with head and feet raised for resistance as you move)
†Pray† at Any Time of the Day
* Rewards = another way to $ave (discount$ & FREEbie$)
These guidelines will save you in the long one ~ not only for the aforementioned reasons, but also from embarrassment (i.e., killer breath, B.O.) if you run into someone later… We don’t want to be Finch from the American Pie movies who had to go home from school every time he had to release his macchiato! You’re welcome. ✌
Happy ☼Birthday☼ to my ♥Tita Fe♥ , a.k.a. Dr. Reyes-Dollete , & HBD to my BFF Bestie SSG Melody
