What I Get Out of Online Shopping

noreply@blogger.com (Theresa) — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 13:39:00 +0000

It's not all the time that I do online shopping.I only do it when I see something nice and affordable that I really like and only if the shipping cost is reasonable. These days it's more convenient for me to do shopping online than to go take a long walk in the city center or the nearby shopping...

Yes,boys and girls,I've decided to breastfeed my baby once he's there.I always believe that breastfeeding is still the best food for the babies...especially the newborn ones.Colostrum gives the baby the best protection against diseases by supplying the needed immunities acquired by the mother...

The amazement and joy I got from feeling the baby inside my womb while watching this fragile creature on-screen during the echography is so intense that any other things that brings me similar feeling is just a tiny speck compared to it.

When I heard the news about another Filipina raped by a U.S. soldier ( this time it happened in Japan) and the case was dropped due to "insufficient evidence", I couldn't believe why her hospitalization for a few days due to serious bleeding and her medical findings are still not enough evidences...

Consumerism and Economic Enslavery

noreply@blogger.com (Theresa) — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 15:42:00 +0000

Since money was invented, people's way of thinking have changed. They have shifted from being productive into being money dependents.And that causes consumerism to explode. Consumerism has always been exploited by money-- and even farmers or producers have been selling their lands for more profits...

Age Is Just A Number

noreply@blogger.com (Theresa) — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 16:25:00 +0000

For me, counting birthdays and determining how "old" you are can indeed affect your way of thinking and behaving... it's like a mind programming that tells you " you are one year older so you should act older"... like when somebody tells you,"you're already too old to play with toys" or you're too...

Nowadays, TV commercials are emphasizing too much on selling anti-age creams as if it's really unacceptable to see wrinkles on a human face. "Anti-age", as it denotes, suggests that these brands of facial creams can fight the age-ing process and that they can manage to stop the body's natural...

Money Is Just A Piece of Paper

Money is just a piece of paper...a piece assigned to create the illusion of belonging something. Richness nowadays is being measured according to how much money a person has in his bank account... if we truly believe that... then we believe in a lie... and we are doomed for believing it. Pure...
