Getting Ready

2010-04-07T09:56:00.004+08:00

For the big school that is! As of this very moment, the little girl is taking her entrance examination for grade 1 at St. Therese Educational Private School, just a stone's throw away from our house which is the main reason we chose it despite the high tuition fee, many have attesting to the good curriculum and way of teaching there. We noticed the good facilities of the school too as we went there to inquire. The husband is more than excited than the little girl as he is the one who process the requirements and other pertinent documents needed and since I cannot take a leave from work, he is the one with the little girl right now. Nicco on the other hand is already enrolled in Nursery since last year from her Ate's previous school. He is also excited in going to school, he even tells us that that the teacher" allowed him to bring his toys to school. Oh my! he's used to having his toys with him around that's why. But he'll enjoy school for sure :)

Unwanted Hair

2010-04-06T10:26:00.004+08:00

Us girls faces many physical changes as we grow up, during our teenage years is the most crucial stage as we get to experience the said transition during this time and we get to adapt with the necessary changes in order for us to understand ourselves more. From having your menstrual period to having that zits on your face plus added up is the unwanted hairs on our body, especially those armpit hairs which is very awful looking.

I remember stumbling upon this photo of the celebrity Jessica Alba few months ago while she was in Saturday's Art Of Elysium gala in Los Angeles with his hubby Cash Warren. Showing off her armpit being zoomed and few fine hairs seems to appear.

Being a celebrity, they should be wary enough to know and part of their everyday lives are the that cameras and paparazzi taking a snap on them. And I believe that part of our personal hygiene is to get rid of those unwanted hairs by plucking or even getting some permanent hair removal through laser if we have the budget which I think is more convenient and more neat as it won't re grow again having that smooth and hair free armpits. Saves you from embarrassment right?!

~Faith in God will always rule over conflict and harm.

Fleet Program

2010-04-05T21:11:00.004+08:00

Convenience at work environment is very essential in order to perform a certain task or operation smoothly and in a jiffy. There are many ways and means that a company may take to make things more beneficial not just on the company but to their employees as well. This is a good program that a lot of job seekers look for, having perks out of their hard work.

If a company engages in offering services and got some mobile employees, it is indeed a wise decision to get a Fleet Program that will be very helpful for both parties. Offering vehicle reimbursement for mobile employees helps out to properly allocate the necessary expenses through the accurate program. A lot of advantages comes through it and having it implemented will definitely improved not just your workforce sector but also the financial standing of your business as it deeply look into the matter of the beneficial factor that you will get as your company utilize the savings that you will get from it. During this economic condition of ours, we must be able to weigh things intelligently in order for us to make necessary decisions with this kind of programs that seems to be very more cost effective as to financial condition.

How do you feel about couples that share an email address?

~ Well, if it's both agreed upon I don't see anything wrong. For DH and I, we both have separate accounts.

How open about your life are you in the various online arenas?

~ I get to share happy and sad moments of my life, random thoughts, view and personal opinions about certain things, I don't want to be negative as much as possible.

On average, how many hours a week do you spend online? Do you think it's too much?

~ It depends, since I am almost online 8 hrs.a day @ work and at least 3-4 hours after at home. Just do the math. Lol!

How did you decide to live where you do?

~ DH and I talked about it. Since we used to live apart, I think it is impossible to build a strong family foundation with the kind of set up and glad we did as we are now on the way on making thing get realized.

Do you like risks, or do you avoid them? What major risks have you taken in your life?

Catching Up on Fave Celebs

2010-03-16T05:43:00.004+08:00

Working on 5 days a week, logging in on the net to check out and update with my bogging needs and tasks plus and two kids needing our full attention and endless household chores really keeps my hands full that whenever I get the chance to have a free time, I spend it all through sleeping!

Sometimes, I get the chance to kill time by browsing the net and read about my one favorite past time which is to get updates on celebrity news and entertainment.

Our kids are now growing really fast and it's time for us think of our future, we really can't tell what would happen but we can do something and be prepare for any possibilities that may arise, be it bad or good. We need to make sure that financially wise, we could get something out of our pocket when needed. And one sure way to attain such need. A proper investment is one factor to consider, sure enough working is probably the most used reasoning for us to get money and save. But we need to explore other possibilities in investment like the need buy gold bullion. As it has been known to be the greatest and most popular way. Gold prices now are benefiting from the weakness of the dollar. You check can check out the usgoldbureau.com to get a hang of how things work around when it comes to gold.

Blue Days

2010-03-09T11:25:00.003+08:00

once again just hit me now... I woke up with a terrible headache, wishing and wanting to just stay home and sleep around till noon but I just can't. Kids are up and Gabby have exams for today, Need to go to the office and my packed lunch isn't interesting to eat. I know things will be the same again at the office.. same old routine, tasks... computer... customers...suppliers... some things I no longer enjoy doing... I know I shouldn't be feeling this way, must be thankful and grateful and I honestly do BUT I just can't help it but feel this way... I wanted to see things in positive way but the wail of negativity is taking its toll on me today.... I feel low, so damn low.... But I am still hoping, I will be ok... everything will turn out fine... I hope it's just one of those blues that will soon go away...

Go For It

2010-03-09T11:17:00.003+08:00

Twenty years from now
you will be disappointed
by the things you didn't do than
by the ones you did do,
so throw off the bowlines
sail away from the safe harbor
catch the trade winds in your sails
EXPLORE...DREAM... DISCOVER

Now that summer is officially here, summer activity officially starts to kick in too. By this time I know that a lot of you have the plans already to keep your kids busy either by enrolling them into summer classes or activity workshops, some on sports play.

Modernized Treatment for Eyesight

2010-03-07T06:25:00.004+08:00

One of the many perks technology has to offer is the the breakthrough of modernized equipments in terms with the medical industry, thank goodness that during this time things can be done in very convenient ways, here goes the digital age as they say. Before at about ten year ago I think, a simple surgery would take about long hours of performance done in clinics and hospitals. Leaving a patient with worries and prayers that it would turn out to be a successful one. Nowadays, there are surgeries that won't require a patient to undergo a knife anymore, just a few hours and to some lucky ones, a few minutes is enough and off you go as if nothing terribly happened to you.

Just like undergoing in a Laser Eye Surgery Boston wherein it would only take a few minutes of your time and you don't need to be confined in the hospital anymore for recuperation. All that inconvenience of you wearing that eyeglasses for years will be erased at an instant with the breakthrough of iLasik for those have blurry vision and needs to be corrected and off you go with a 20/20 vision that you have long been dreaming to restore for years now.

Auto Allowance

2010-03-06T23:02:00.005+08:00

Since some changes took place at the office last month, I have done updating all my lists of to do's at my workplace. I always try to keep myself busy as I am again starting to feel/ get bored with the monotony of work I do. Part of the changes that took place is our company incurring an Auto Allowance program for the mobile employees, like the ones being offered by CRS, which offers favorable results for the employers and employees too. We now have two motorized technicians that usually goes out everyday to do some errands like pull-out of defective unit for repair, doing the collections to our customers and picking up orders from the suppliers. One of them had already been given a motor vehicle as his service unit, the other one is as bout to be given to in a few weeks time.

having a mobile employee is one way for the company to have a fast pace turn around that gives a more better and fast results and positive customer satisfaction feedback. Things are now more easy to do and a better communication is build up as work itself is concerned. By giving the employees such allowance program, they are in return inspired to work as ease and comfort has taken on their work.

Debt Matters

2010-03-05T23:29:00.005+08:00

One of the many important factor to consider when handling financial issues to always keep a good record track of your deal towards financial activities. Always bear in mind to keep yourself from making unnecessary expense that will in the end create a big problem on your part. Discipline and goal focus must be clearly set to attain that financial freedom you wanted to experience. Live within your means is somewhat a great and proven way to at least keep yourself off from dealing with a Collection Agency once you start to experience financial woes and can no longer deal with your potential business partners.

Many people has this negative connotation when dealing with debts, they tend to keep it off to themselves and won't seek professional help as they think it is very embarrassing situation. I guess, an important thing to do once you suffer from financial woes is to get to the root of the problem and resolve it by intelligently arriving at wise decision no mater what it takes and even seeking professional help like of those with the American Profit Recovery is a part of that wise decision as they provide you with the necessary solutions with debt problem, they are fully equipped with some necessary program that enhances how you could recover from bad debts.

Hoarse Voice

2010-03-05T21:59:00.003+08:00

I remember I just did went out the office and the temperature is at the highest point. Later had I known that I no longer have voice coming out when I speak and open my mouth.

PREVENT AND TREAT HOARSENESS

If you smoke, quit
Avoid agents which dehydrate the body, such as alcohol and caffeine
Avoid secondhand smoke
Drink plenty of water
Humidify your home
Watch your diet - avoid spicy foods and alcohol
Try not to use your voice too long or too loudly
Seek professional voice training
Avoid speaking or singing when your voice is injured or hoarse (this is similar to not walking on a sprained ankle)

Hoarseness due to a cold or flu may be evaluated by family physicians, pediatricians and internists (who have learned how to examine the larynx). When hoarseness lasts longer than two weeks or has no obvious cause, it should be evaluated by an otolaryngologist-head and neck surgeon (ear, nose and throat doctor). Problems with the voice are best managed by a team of professionals who know and understand how the voice functions. These professionals are otolaryngology-head and neck surgeons, speech/ language pathologists, and teachers of singing, acting, or public speaking. Voice disorders have many different characteristics which may give professionals a clue to the cause.

From here
