Exploring Dublin

2012-02-03T09:08:00.000-08:00

Have you ever been to Dublin? The place is well known for it's very historical places. It is very notable for having some old structures who now served as the country's main attraction. To give you a short history about Dublin, it is actually being conquered by the Vikings in the 19th century. One of their main tourist destination is the Dublin Castle who still stood up beautifully. There's the historical Father Mathew bridge and the wonderful St Stephen's Green. There's also the Grafton Street which serves as the main and principal shopping street in Dublin. Dublin is indeed a lovely place and has many wonderful sites to visit and not to mention their native dishes and specialties. If i am to list down those countries that i am dying to visit someday, i might have to include Dublin in my list.

I really want to travel someday though i just don't know how and where to start. Traveling is simply so stressful because you have to think of everything , from booking your flights, from finding a nice hotel to stay in and even in finding a driver or a car to help you exploring the country much faster. Though i know that there are car hire dublin airport services being offered in the country so i don't have to worry that much about the car. But for the meantime, let me just satisfy myself by simple staring at some wonderful Dublin photos online hehehe.

Infrared Sauna To Ease Your Stress

2012-02-03T08:46:00.000-08:00

I was really upset last Monday because our superiors changed our schedule from the regular 9-5 to a 6 to 3 working shift which is kinda stressing to handle because I had to wake up around 2 am to prepare myself and my things. It is very stressing indeed and is very unbearable. Aside from the early schedule that we have, the shift covered the entire queuing hours in which most of the clients are irate who did nothing but to blame a call center agent like me on a problem that we didn't do or we are nothing related of . But then again, as a contractual employee and as someone who is willing to stay in this company for good, i have to bear with those irate customers and stressing working sched and deal with them as professional as I can and I guess that's really the way it should be.
After all, i just have to work 8 hours a day which is not that bad because i still have a chance to enjoy the rest of the day and the weekends as well. Well, speaking of weekends, i usually stay at home during my day offs but if there's a chance, i also hang out with my friends from time to time. This is actually my way to ease out all the stress brought to me by my work. I used to visit a sauna too to pamper myself. Since i do not have a car, i used to commute a few kilometers away to reach the nearest sauna spa here in my area. It is very interesting to know that we now have those infrared sauna(s) that are very portable and can be installed at home. We know how expensive it is when you hired a fitness instructor or pay for the premium sauna membership, that's why it is very ideal to have these commercial infrared sauna(s) at home. They are convenient, energy efficient and highly affordable as well.
You can check http://www.puritysaunas.com/ for more info about these infrared saunas.

Ceramic and Granite Tiles

2012-02-03T08:31:00.000-08:00

We used to have ceramic tiles for almost all finishing that we have in our house. From the bathroom, Kitchen floor, bathroom walls , and even the kitchen countertops and lavatory. Ceramic tiles are indeed very appealing and has a wide variety of designs and colors. The design that we have in our living room is different from what we have in the kitchen and same thing goes with our bathroom and terrace. Another thing that makes ceramic our main choice is the price. Ceramic is quite expensive than the laminated floors but way much cheaper than other materials. However, the durability of ceramic tiles are quite questionable and doubtful not unless that you are ensured that the tiles and properly installed by a highly professional worker. If you are looking for a good quality finishing and if you have good budget, then you should rather get a granite or a marble rather than ceramic. Granite, most especially, is highly durable and may last for a long time. It is resistant to scratch and stain though a proper maintenance should be regularly maintained. If you really want to maintain the beauty of the materials like granite Burlingame then you must exert a little effort to clean it using some special cleaning agents as often as you can for a better and more satisfying result. You may not have the same beauty for a lifetime but at least you can extend or expand the lifespan right?

I Always Admire Nurses

2012-02-03T01:18:00.000-08:00

Being in a graveyard is simply so tiring that's why i really admire those nurses , doctors and other healthcare professionals because they can manage to keep themselves up even in the sleepy hours. I have through that point when i was in an international call center and since we are an outsource company, most of our clients are from the US and we have to work in a graveyard shift to cater them. Anyway, what makes nurses so special is their dedication to serve those patients who needed their help.
Actually , i once dreamed to become a nurse but i failed to have that course because i decided to take Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education instead. I was greatly influenced by mu uncle to pursue a teaching career but my admiration to those in medical profession is still there. If i will be given another chance to get into college then i might take a nursing course an be in a good school like that nursing school san francisco in California which is well known for producing high quality nursing professionals.
Well, we can never tell what will happen to our future and who knows, i might succeed in this kind of profession and be nurse someday! That's pretty exciting huh!

Typical High School Life

2012-01-26T21:23:00.000-08:00

I remember myself when i was in high school. I was like a nerdy guy who used to stay in the corner of our library reading our academic books to review our lessons in advance. Well, that wasn't really cool and if i can turn back the time, then i will definitely change myself into something better. I will try my best to gain more friends and peers but maintaining my grades at the same time. I am not really sure what's the typical high school life for you guys but upon reading some foreign magazines , it seems that high school is where most curiosities occur. Teenagers became more and more curious about things that they haven't tried in their life. This is when they started to realized who they are and what life they will take in the future. Unfortunately, this is also the time they develop their bad personalities and vises. They learn how to drink, they learn how to smoke which are obviously not a good thing but we just can't deny the fact that these are all true.
Anyway, Cigarette Smoking even with the use of those Cannabis Seed i found online being sold by trusted UK Suppliers, is actually not bad as long as you will not be consuming them abusively and of course, you have to be on the right age if you chose to consume such things.
You have to be responsible in every action that you take. Keep in mind that you are the one who chooses your own path and you have to think of your move before you take your action.
I don't mind myself getting into smoking or drinking as long as i can handle myself well and as long as i can ensure myself that i will not be consuming them abusively.
Health should always be your top priority so if you guys chooses to have those vises then better take them as moderately as you can.

Ways To Kill Addiction

2012-01-26T01:47:00.000-08:00

Addiction has been one of the major problems that every country has facing today. We used to link addiction to drugs or alcohol but it really has many forms. It just so happened that Drugs and Alcohol addiction are the most common cases of Addiction. We may not realized it completely but a certain individual can actually be physically and psychologically addicted to specific substances and that include the pain killers , gamble, sex, or even playing video games. Addiction has many forms indeed but there's one thing for sure, it never bring any good thing to the person who experience it.
I myself can't live without seeing my blogs daily which became my daily habit or routine and with that fact, it can be considered as Addiction.
Discipline is the best way to kill addiction. You have to practice self control. But because of some environmental factors, an individual will find it so hard to overcome it completely. Let say the drug addiction for example, friends and peers can influence someone easily. Temptations are just too hard to resist and you really have to seek for guidance in order for you to recover.
This is the reason why we have rehabilitation centers to help these people to recover. It is not a matter of isolating yourself from the others but more of keeping yourself away from those possible temptation. There are dual diagnosis rehab center to help you recover completely. Through this dual diagnosis rehab programs, you might undergo a series of therapy and counseling which can be very useful to get rid of your addiction. Of course, aside from the rehab programs, you also have to discipline yourself. Your health is at risk if you drown yourself to drug or alcohol addiction so better do something before it's too late. Prayers can be a powerful tool as well. God will never bring you down.

New year, New Life

2012-01-12T19:21:00.000-08:00

It's new year and if you want to welcome this year with a blast, then better set things right and list everything down on your New Year's Resolution. You might find it funny but that's actually a great way to start a brand new year. It is time for us to make things right and put everything in order. We may not accomplish everything as we planned it but at least, we give ourselves a try. I also have to admit that I failed to accomplish most of my resolutions but at least, no matter how many times i tried , i still have my goals and i never let myself down simply because of my failures. According to Mr Earl Nigthingale , the author of the "Strangest Secret" , if you want to succeed in life, then you have to pay the price of the person you wanted to be. You cannot reach your goal without sacrificing or working hard for it not unless you were born millionaire or you instantly become one by winning a lottery but still, you cannot be so proud that way.
Sometimes we have to change and we have to change FOR GOOD.
I remember a column before about an addict who took the right path and completely left all his horrible memories and experiences from the past. The best way to start a new life is by leaving all the baggage behind. Addiction, at some point, will ruin someone's life and the life of people behind him because this will affect you not just physically but also mentally, emotionally, socially and spiritually. However, we have to keep in mind that we can still move ourselves up by changing our live and taking the right step towards a brand new day. If started feeling down and hopeless then better seek a guidance or an advise from a friend or someone close to you. You don't have to keep it alone or trap yourself on a state of solitude forever. After all, we now have different drug and alcohol rehab programs that are very effective to help someone recover from their nightmare. The drug rehab NC, for example is a very reliable center that you can surely trust on.
There's always a solution for every problems and we just have to seek for it.

Durability of Granite Countertops

2012-01-08T11:22:00.000-08:00

Granite and Marble have become one of the most competent finishing material around. They are indeed the best material you can choose from for your kitchen or bathroom. Both materials are known for being extremely durable compare to ceramic tiles, laminated flooring and glass. Ceramic tiles and Laminated flooring became popular too because of they ate extremely affordable and they are cheaper than granite and Marble, however the quality of ceramic tiles and laminated flooring are not so satisfying. However, compare to other materials, Granite can not be installed easily or Do It Yourself activity. It has to be installed properly in order to make it more durable. We know how expensive granite is compare to other materials and I am sure you do not want to waste that money by taking the risk of installing it by yourself. It is still best to let the professional do the jobs for you. They know what to do and they were trained for it. They also have the right materials and equipments to be used. Keep in mind that the durability of your granite countertops will depend on how well it is being installed and how good the quality of your material is . If you are in California, then i would prefer those countertops san jose offered by Marble City. The company itself is known for providing how quality kitchen countertops and has been in the industry for quite a lot time.

Perfect Stress Reliever

2011-12-11T06:46:00.000-08:00

Things are getting so busy to me these past few weeks not just because i already got a new job but also because I am also preparing for the upcoming Holiday celebrations which are nearly approaching now. Time is running so fast indeed and i just can't imagine that we only have 2 weeks left before the much awaited Holiday of the year.
I am crossing my fingers that our heads will keep the Saturday-Sunday rest days until the end of January so that i can spend my whole day with my family this coming Christmas and New Year. In addition to that, i am about to celebrate my 23rd birthday on the 27th of December. That's pretty exciting indeed but right now, i just need some more time to relax and to keep all these stress away.
I got so much busy last month because i had to adjust myself to a new working environment. Dealing with irate customers everyday has never been an easy tasks. Good thing, i can just rest myself at home or play my favorite games online to keep all the stress away. It is such a great relief in a point that I forget all the pain and stress inside of me. I used to play slots casinos online which happen to be one of my favorite games. It is not that hard and complicated as the other casino games and it doesn't require any skills or techniques for you to win. Everything is just a matter of luck here which make it even more interesting. But of course, if you want to get involved in such games, better choose the best online casinio to give you nothing but the best gaming experience as well. Online Casino Gator is probably one of the best casino game provider online. You guys should give it a try too.
But just remember that you should play such games moderately and play it all for fun. Playing casino games, knowing that you will be dealing with money, abusively is quite unhealthy.

Our Future Nurse in the Family

2011-12-06T06:04:00.001-08:00

Time is really running so fast and it seems that it was just yesterday when I am playing with my younger sister. It was way back then when she keep on playing her lovely toys and inviting me for her own Tea set party. It was fun indeed however, things have changed a lot. She's not that kid anymore and she's not getting any younger either. She's currently on her 4th year high school and is graduating this coming March. Next year, she will be going to college and will take the path or career that she wants. She's acting more mature now and I know for sure that she now has a boyfriend though she weren't telling us yet hehehe. Anyway, She mentioned to us before that she is planning to take a nursing course which is really great because we never had a nursing graduate or any health care related professional in our family except for my cousin Abel who is now a certified nurse and is currently working abroad.
Her dream to become a nurse didn't came to us as a surprise because it has always been her passion. She used to pretend that she's our nurse and she keep on reminding us whenever we need to take our medicine. And now, she is about to take it for real, which i know her ultimate dream. I am not really sure what school are she gonna take but I am hoping that it is as great as the Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts in California. I have heard of their amazing nursing programs san jose in California and I am dying to know if there is such school in our place too. Anyway, I will offer my full support to my sister and I am wishing her the best of luck.

Responsible Parenting

2011-12-04T05:11:00.000-08:00

I just read a very interesting topis from a certain column of a magazine last night. It is all about proper parenting and the role of parents in guiding their teenager son when it comes to serious matters like vises , drugs and Sex. I am not a parent yet but I am done of becoming a teenager and I can say that i have been through a lot of curiosities during that era. Thanks God, I have been guided by my parents properly and I was able to find the right path towards a better career. Anyway, the article is all about "what are you going to do as a parent when some unexpected situation occurs?"
They said that there should be an open communication between the child and the parent. Let's say "Sex" for example. How are you going to explain it to your son? How long will you get deeper when you explain it to him? How will you tell him the consequences and the responsibilities that Sex can bring him into? How are you going to set limitations to him and how far these limitations could go?
Keep in mind that due to their curiosity , they are likely to be affected easily by the things that they see and they hear.
Let's take this first scenario. What are you going to do when you see your teenager son reading some pornography magazines or watching porn videos at http://pornxchange.com/ for example. How will you put yourself in such critical situation and how are you going to explain it to him? Just like what i have read in that column, it is very important to have a private conversation with your son regarding to this matter. It is okay to read such adult magazines or watch pornxchange videos or even reading some porn tube review as long as you keep yourself a limit. It is a part of being a teenager but then again, you have to know your own limitations and you have to set boundaries if necessary.
Second Scenario; How will you react when you found out that your teenager son's girlfriend is pregnant? Isn't too late for you to guide your son? Isn't too late to explain to him what he did? Of course, it has never been to late however, he cannot escape his responsibilities and whether he likes it or not, he has to bear all the obligation to that baby.
What I am trying to pin point here is the value of responsible parenting. Guide your kids before it's too late. Show them the right path towards a better future.

Paintball Games In Tagaytay

2011-11-20T00:27:00.001-08:00

A week from now, there will be another long weekend in celebration of Andres Bonifacio Day. That would be another thrilling weekend since my friends and I were planning to hit Tagaytay. It's been awhile since I last visited this place and it is pretty exciting that I will hit Tagaytay again with my friends. We have so much plans to do once we get there and that includes mountain climbing and sight seeing. It is very ideal to visit this place to keep all my stress away. With its cool climate and clean air, Tagaytay City is the perfect place for leisure activities like picnics, horseback riding, camping and sightseeing.
Taal Volcano is probably one of the highlights of this wonderful place. It's almost like a paradise for me and for most Filipino families. As what I have mentioned, there are so many activities can be done here and one of the most in demand today would be the Paintball games. Tagaytay offer wide fields for Paintball games. There are many fields here dedicated only for this kind of sports.
Paintball is a quite in demand today and as far as I know it is already considered as a sports. Here, you will be given some sort of an US army uniform, protecting gears and us army paintball gun. It is very exciting indeed and it feels like you are in a real war game. Just don't forget to bring paintball tank with you in case you are out of paint bullets.
Of course this is just a sport and this is just a game which means, it is not as fatal as what can you see in real war or even in those war video games. It's more of a recreational activity and is generally for fun.
Actually, during Fiesta (a town celebration to pay tribute to a patron), our City government is organizing paintball competition. It is very interesting to know that they are giving so much attention to this sport and it is very nice to see that most people are into it. I might try it too since i never had a chance to play paintball. I attended an event once but never tried it yet.
That would be fun right? Though I am not really sure if I will be the one to provide my own guns and uniform or I can just rent it somewhere. I'm so excited about this wooohoo!!

Thank You My Blogging Buddies

2011-11-19T22:34:00.000-08:00

Waaaah! Sorry guys for being so inactive lately. As you all know, i got my new job and things have changed ever since I started working. I thought I can manage my time well but things turned out the opposite way. I can hardly find time to blog and visit other bloggers too. Though I can still open my Facebook and my Emails from time to time. The only time I can open my blogs is during my Day offs. Thanks God, we have 2 rest days in a week which is good enough for me to accomplish all my pending assignments online. I am still working as a freelance writer that's why it's pretty hard for me to handle everything.
This is what i want, I want a stable job and now that i am working in a company, i will do my best to stay here for good. Even if it means that I have to sacrifice some of my personal hobbies. I am really thankful that most of my blogger friends understand my current situation and in fact, they showed me their support to my new job.
I was able to chat with them last night and I had so much fun. Most of them sent me "greetings", congratulating me for my new work.
They even sent me some cute emoticons during our chat conversation which made me, somehow, relieved. I promised them that I will try to fix my schedule so that I can visit them as often as i can.
Thank you for all your support guys! I really appreciate it! You don't have any idea how much you made my day! ^_^

The Wonders of Quartz

2011-10-22T09:59:00.000-07:00

Quartz has been a very versatile material. It can be used in so many ways. The most common use of quartz is probably as a finishing material for your house whether its a commercial building or residential house. In fact, Quartz flooring is pretty in demand in the market today. They are quite expensive indeed compare to other materials like ceramic, wood and laminated, but it's truly worth it knowing the quality that you are going to received in return. Quartz has this natural beauty and it comes up with so many colors and designs, giving the house owner a wide selection. Like Marble and Granite, Quartz is not so porous too, thus it is resistant to stain and heat. It is resistant to scratches too. But of course, you have to maintain it in a regular basis to retain its natural beauty. As far as I know, there are specialized cleaning agents or solutions for Quartz which are very affordable in the market.
It's pretty amazing to see that Quartz is being used for staircase as well just like what I've seen yesterday from a certain establishment somewhere near my working place. Isn't cool and very eye-cathing. Though, I don't think it is ideal to have this for your interior unless your house is very specious. Nevertheless, it is still immensely beautiful and simply incomparable to those typical staircases.
Quartz is a very effective material for countertops too. It has been lined up with Marble and Granite as one of the materials who has the so called, high standards. Of course, you also have to consider the workmanship because it will tell the life span of your countertop. If you choose to get the material with low quality and hire inexperienced worker, then chances are, you'll be replacing them over and over again which can be very costly.

Towards Healthy Pregnancy

2011-10-18T06:25:00.000-07:00

Pregnancy is probably the most rewarding yet hard and stressful day for woman especially for first timers. It can be quite risky too if you failed to take care of yourself responsibly. Please keep in mind that you have to be very responsible in everything. Discipline is the key towards healthy pregnancy or even during your fertility period. It may involve some sacrifices and you may have to restrict yourself from doing other activities for the sake of your baby.
You have to balanced your diet and choose the right food. Take note that every food you eat may affect the baby inside. Keep in mind the familiar adage saying "I'm eating for Two" because you're eating not just for yourself but also for the child in your womb. Maintaining a healthy diet with foods that provide key nutrients is important throughout pregnancy. Foods with Folic Acid, Calcium, Iron and Omega 3 fats are very essential for pregnant woman.
Of course, it differs a lot from woman who is trying to get pregnant. Some couple have some issues with their fertility and both of them are trying their best just to have a baby even if it means they have to take some of those desperate measures like going to Obando, Bulacan and dance to their miraculous Patron, believing that it will give them higher chance to get a baby. Of course it is just a myth but we have to respect them knowing that this is their way to, at least, overcome their frustrations.
There are many ways out there which are scientifically proven effective to increase fertility for both men and women. It might be in form of taking essential vitamins for fertility or taking the so called Fertility foods Diet plan. And of course, do not forget your prayers! It is the most powerful tool a couple can have. God has plans for and you have to remember that!

There are specific equipments that are being used for specific landscaping procedure such as the rototiller, trimmers, pruners, loppers and more. Of course, it is possible for you to have them all, however, you have to spend big time for them whether you are going to buy them in cash or you're going to rent them.
Now, if you do not have the right skills to perform such task, then I highly suggest that you hire someone from a reputable Landscaping Company.
For me it is more practical than doing the landscaping all by yourself. I listed down some of the reasons why it is much better to hire a landscaper.
►Lesser Risks of Damage - Exploring and experimenting in your garden or yard is pretty cool but if you do not know anything about proper landscaping, then you might put yourself into a big disaster that will definitely ruin not just your budget but also your time and your entire lawn as well. A professional landscaper, can do it very effectively with no ease. They sure know what is best for your front yard to make it more appealing than ever.
►Time Saving - Imagine the amount of time that you are going to spend in landscaping? Keep in mind that landscaping do not just deal with trimming of the grass, it requires other procedures too which may stress you out and will definitely kill your time. Expert landscaper can finish the job in no time.
►Money Saving - Compare the money that you are going to spend for the equipments or rentals and so as the amount that you are going to pay in case you ruined your lawn to the amount that you are going to pay for the Landscaping services? Which do you think will save you more? Needless to say, hiring a professional Landscaper has always been the best option.

Marble and Granite are The Best

2011-09-21T13:12:00.000-07:00

When it comes to Finishing material for your kitchen, it's pretty hard to choose which one will give you the best quality and which one will offer nothing but a mess. We have to choose carefully. Get recommendation from others and try to check some designs online or better yet hire an expert designer, they sure know what's the best for your house.
If I'm going to list down all the finishing materials most especially for your kitchen or your kitchen countertop in particular and rank them from greatest to least, then my top spotters would either be granite or marble.
Marble and granite might be quite expensive but the quality of them are simply incomparable to others. They both have this nice glossy effect that will definitely make your kitchen more appealing and eye catching than ever.
When it comes to the durability, both granite and marble counter tops will be depend on how well the workmanship is being applied to it. So better let the professionals do it for you. They might be an expensive material but the quality and the elegance they provide cannot be found to other materials like ceramic and glass. Well, ceramics are great but most of the tend to break easily whenever a strong force is applied. So i believed no matter how expensive the granite or marble is, it is still worth buying for and is a very practical choice that every homeowner can make.

BIR Forms

2011-09-17T13:39:00.000-07:00

Okay here we go again, I have here 2 BIR (Bureau of Internal Revenue) forms that I have to process. God! I don't even know how to differentiate the two haha. Good thing a friend of mine explained it to me and why should I fill up them both.
►First is the BIR form 1902. This form is to be accomplished by an old or new employee whether resident citizen or non-resident alien earning purely compensation income. This should be filled up and submitted to the RDO or Revenue District Office. Mine is registered in Pasig City since my employer required me to do that and I tell you guys, I am so clueless about it at first. I just did what is being instructed to me, filled up the information and submitted it to them.
►BIR form 2305 on the other hand is a certificate to be accomplished and issued in case of increase or decreases in exemption, change of status, change in the person of employer, change in the type of employment, acquiring employment after having registered as engaged in business or exercise of profession, change in the working status of the spouse, execution of the "waiver to claim the Additional Exemption" by the husband, or revocation of the previously executed "waiver to claim the Additional Exemption" by the husband. And since I will be working in a new employer, i have to fill up this form too. (If ever I made it to their company LOL).
Okay, I am not a big time tax payer here but I know how important it is to pay your taxes. I know what are the benefits we can get from it in return. For Big time earners and tax parers (usually business man), they usually hire a tax preparer to handle their income tax return. This Tax preparation service will absolutely save their time in calculations and analyzing their tax returns. So for them, it is definitely a practical option to pay their tax on time without stressing themselves.

Why Should I have a Camcorder?

2011-09-17T12:38:00.000-07:00

Digital camcorders are pretty in demand today. It's almost for everyone already unlike before when camcorders can only be operated by professionals. Camcorders today are highly affordable and almost everyone now owns camcorder. But is it really necessary to have such device? Of course it is and here are my reason why.
► Having a camcorder will save your money because you do not have to hire expert videographer whenever there is a special event like wedding and birthdays. You can simply shoot those unforgettable scenes and upload them directly to your computer. As for the duplication, there aere so many software online that can be download to help you produce more copies of your video and by also saving them on a CD. The good thing about digital camcorders is that when you make duplicate copies, they will still have the same video quality.
►Some unexpected spectacular event may arise and I'm sure you don't want to share those moments with your friends by simply narrating them what happened right? With pocket camcorders, you can shoot any unexpected and surprising events in your life and share them to everyone with confidence.
►Camcorders can be very useful if you have science or school related projects where documentation is needed. Video is a great form of visual aids which will give you high marks.
See, now if you don't have camcorder yet, better consider buying one now! Malls and retails gadget or accessories shops are flooded with highly affordable camcorders but I suggest that you check some camcorder reviews before you buy. Check http://www.camcorderreviewsv.com/ and see which camcorders fit you well.

Romi Garduce's Journey and truth about Snow Blindness

2011-09-14T16:32:00.000-07:00

I am so proud of our very own Romi Garduce as he finished reaching the 6 out of the seven summits last July. Romi Garduce is considered the first ever Filipino to complete the Seven Summits of the World with “Vinson Massif” (the highest summit or peak in Antarctica) as his next and final target. Romi was able to reach the summit of Carstensz Pyramid (The highest Island Peak in the world) this July which has been documented and telecasted on local tv stations here. I remember his journey to Mount Everest last 2006 which was also being covered by media LIVE. From their journey to the Base camp up to the highest peak of Mount Everest where Romi planted our very own Filipino flag. They shared all their adventures and sacrifices while they’re on camp but of course, all those hard work paid off when he successfully reached the summit. Here are some pictures of Romi Garduce taken from the web.(Romi waving our Flag in the summit of Carstensz Pyramid)

Since we’re talking about Mountain Climbing here, I guess I can share you the topic about an eye condition that mostly experienced by mountain climbers. Photokeratitis or most commonly known as Snow blindness is a condition of eye discomfortness due to exposure to ultraviolet rays. It’s a temporary condition though but it doesn’t mean that you have to ignore it because it might also get worst and might give you pain, poor vision, and constricted pupil. It is also being experienced by most snowboarders. There’s actually one main reason why most climbers and snowboarders experience snow blindness and that’s no other than the failure to wear necessary protective eye gear s. Snowboard Goggles should always be worn to protect your eyes from any sudden and intense exposure to ultraviolet rays. We know how important our sight is so we have to do our best to protect our eyes from any harm.(Romi shown wearing the necessary protective gears including the protective sunglasses)

Of course aside from the snow goggles, climbers like our very own Romi Garduce or even snowboarders, skiers, and skaters, should wear all the necessary protective gears. You have to pay attention to any single details like checking if your boots are fitted well or if your belt is securely fastened because a single negligence may cause bigger disaster which may risk your life. Make sure that your gears are made out of high quality materials that can withstand strong and bad weather condition.

Effective Ways To Invest Your Money

2011-08-23T09:11:00.000-07:00

Instead of wasting your money in buying non sense items, why not make yourself more fruitful by investing them. Investing your money is such a clever and practical move to save yourself and your family from any financial problems which may arouse in the near future. Actually there are many ways to invest your money. Listed below are my personal list to help you.
►BANK - Bank is said to be the safest and the most secured way of investing and of course they are relying deeply on the economic status. Just make sure that you deal with a reputable one because if a bank experience a threat of Bankruptcy then your investment might be in danger.
►CAR- Buying a car is such a nice investment. Let say for example, you want to buy a newly launched model car, then all you have to do is to sell your current one to help you purchase the new car with no ease. However, the challenge here is how are you going to sell the car much faster? Of course, you have no choice but to sell your car in a much lower price since it's already used and the value of it is not that high anymore, unless you made some upgrades or unless we are talking about vintage cars here.
►HOUSE - One of the common form of investment is the house. You can increase its value by renovating it and by making it more appealing. Just make sure that you buy only high quality materials to it which will help you to sell the house much faster.
►GOLD or SILVER COINS/ BULLION - Buying gold is such a great investment because of its high value. It has always been the best form of investment because of its stability. You can keep the gold as long as you want and when then when you experience serious financial problems, you can simply sell them in a legal firm. Actually you can now sell gold online. Just make sure that you deal with a reputable and well trusted websites to avoid being scammed.
The Silver and Gold Exchange is probably one of the best and risk free online sites to sell gold. They have been in the industry for quite a long time and have proven the quality of their service.

Dealing With Rust

2011-08-19T20:06:00.000-07:00

Our car is mostly made out of metal so you really have to expect that when time goes by, you will eventually bring it to a repair shop for replacement. Steel car bodies are susceptible to rust because of being exposed to water and sun everyday. Especially now that the weather seems so weird because today the sun shines so bright and tomorrow the rain will fall heavily from the sky.
This weird weather condition can cause your car from getting rust easily.
Anyway, we have to be aware about this and we have to be responsible for it.
Keep in mind that rust is more like a virus because once a metal get infected by it, the rust will grow bigger and bigger which weakens the metal and to prevent this from happening, once you see the sign of rusting, better bring your car to an auto body repair shop as early as possible.
I'm not really sure what kind of solution they can give but if the condition is quite worst, I'm sure you'll end up replacing the whole body.
Keep in mind also that a rust spot increases and spreads with time, especially with each rain or snow storm so better not ignore it or else, it will cost you big time. Whether you plan on keeping it or selling it, your car will look cleaner without the rust.I’m sure you don’t want to be judge by the car you drive right?
Make sure that you bring your car to a reputable Auto Repair Company for a better and high quality service.

I have Sensitive Teeth

2011-08-19T00:52:00.000-07:00

I have a sensitive teeth and I've been complaining about this painful sensation every time i drink or eat something extremely cold and hot.
Just like last time when my mom bought us an ice cream. I just can't eat it because my teeth is reacting so fast and it's really painful. Actually even when i drink a cold water, sometimes, i have to take a straw to sip it just to avoid that painful teeth reaction.
The only way to keep myself away from that painful reaction is by using this special toothpaste made just for sensitive teeth. Right now, I'm using this Colgate Pro-Active which is quite expensive compare to the normal brands, (And i think Colgate should commend me for promoting them in this blog LOL)
Anyway, it is really effective though the result will not last for long and i have to brush my teeth again after it loses the effect.
Even though i prevent that painful reaction through this special tooth paste, i still need to consult a dentist and maybe he can provide a permanent solution for it.
I'm just hoping that i can find a service similar to that Dentist Portland, I'm sure they can do something for my sensitive teeth in no time.

Plumbing Issues

2011-08-13T02:42:00.000-07:00

There were times that when we need a plumbing repair, we just hire someone from the neighborhood or ask help from one of our relatives who somehow has the knowledge how to fix it. However we have to keep in mind that there is a consequence of hiring someone who is less experience. Hiring someone who do not have enough skills about plumbing repair will just cause more trouble and will definitely cost you big time.
The price of their services might be very attractive yet a very deceiving one. Price should not be our top priority, we should consider the quality of their work and that's what really matters most.
Well, let say you took the risk and you chose the cheaper service, well chances are you'll be experiencing the same plumbing issues over and over again so it is not practical option at all.
Hiring professional Plumber has always been the best option in any kind of plumbing repair issues.
Well, obviously because they are well trained for it and they can definitely fix the issue in no time.
Hiring experts and professional plumber is really advisable if you want to put an end to your plumbing issues. Take note that plumbing issues is something that you should not ignore because if you keep on ignoring it, you will just make the condition much worst.

Communicate with the Technician

2011-08-12T19:54:00.000-07:00

Planning to bring your car to an auto repair shop? Well, they said that every time you bring your car into a repair shop, make sure that you communicate with the technician. Why? Because the technician can easily identify or diagnose the real issue if you tell him the problem in detailed. Misunderstanding often occur due to poor communication between the customer and the shop.
The technician should do the same thing too and you have to ask what exactly the problem is and what specifically causing the trouble. This will help you to understand the issue much clearly and this will also prevent you from bring so shocked about the repair fee that they will be charging on you. (believe me it happens every time hahaha)
You have to know if the shop is charging you inappropriately or not. If it is, then better not bring your car there next time but if it's not and if you proven that they serve honestly and competently, then start establishing a long term relationship with them as if every time there's an issue, you bring it them.
We as a driver should now the real issue behind the trouble. Its easy to become intimidated when communicating with a car repair shop and you're hearing a lot of words and concepts you don't understand. If you are having a hard time understanding the issue then Ask and let them explain every details.
If you're looking for an honest and competent shop, then ICR is just right for you. They are located in Oregon and known for providing the best Auto Body Repair Portland service. Visit them at http://icrautobody.com/ and see what else they have to offer.

House Reflects Owner's Personality

2011-08-12T13:30:00.000-07:00

A house is a reflection of the owner's personality. If you're clean and you're organized and if you keep your house regularly maintained, then you might received a lot of compliments from your friends which is definitely a good thing.
Our kitchen specifically, even though most guess failed to reach this area of your house, is a great way to measure someone's orderliness. Kitchen is probably one of the dirtiest part of your house since you do all the stuffs here. You prepared foods, you cook, you wash, and all that stuffs which are all prone to germs and bacteria. That's why as much as possible we have to clean it everyday. After all, it's for your benefit too.
Germs are more dominant into wet or moist surfaces which could probably your kitchen countertops most especially if you're using tiles because germs can be trapped at every single corner of it especially if the grout was not properly placed. That makes so hard to be cleaned. Oh well, maybe you could choose a much better material. Something that can be cleaned with no ease like granite maybe. It is known for being the best material for both countertops and floors. Well, they're glossy and they look so great and they are very easy to clean as long as you have the right cleaner for it.
But then, that's your choice, it's your kitchen, just be responsible to it and always keep it clean.

What a Busy Man am I

2011-08-10T16:26:00.000-07:00

Sigh, what a stressing week that was. I've been very busy these past few weeks and there's just plenty of things that i have to prioritized. My work , my school , my blogs and my obligations to my family, gosh, i just can't handle them all and sometimes, i feel like i want to give up but i try to motivate myself to keep me going.
I'm working as an office staff right now and also as a freelance online writer; I have to attend a course in a technical training school every Saturday and Sunday and i have to tutor my brother and nieces everyday after school. Well, this might be the reason why I'm still single LOL.
My work and my school almost killed all my personal leisure. I remember those days when I still have ample of time to play Basketball with my friends. I used to hang out with them before and I wish i could bring those moments back.
If ever given a chance, i would like to grab that once in a lifetime opportunity to play golf. I'm really intrigued about this sport especially when i saw those Golf Courses Portland online. It makes me so eager to try it but never had enough time to do it. Actually, i find it quite complicated compare to other mental games like chess because there's just too many equipments needed to play this game. There are different kinds of golf clubs used for different kind of golf courses.
It's complicated indeed but I'm sure i can get used to it once i tried it. Have you tried playing golf? How was it? Don't forget to leave your comment here and share us your golf experience.

Training Courses

2011-08-05T20:35:00.000-07:00

Last 2007, i decided to take a technical training course since i can add that experience in my portfolio and i can also apply what i've learned there in real life situations. Oh well, the school have so many courses to offer and I chose the Computer Technician course simply because it is quite in demand and also to learn basic troubleshooting ideas that i can use if ever i encounter some hardware issues with my PC. Other courses were Automotive , Computer Science, computer secretarial and Electronics.
Electronics is a very interesting course though i can't take two courses at the same time so i prioritized the computer technician course first but when the time i finished the course, i already got a job so i failed to take the Electronics. I wasted such a great opportunity. I know i will learn a lot from that course and i can apply those knowledge if ever i encounter any home wiring problems in our house.
Well, it's not too late for me and besides I'm just 22 years old now so i still have a lot of time.
Being an Electrician is such a very interesting profession don't you think?
Anyway, since i don't know anything about electrical troubleshooting YET, we let the experts fix those home wiring problems. We have a family electrician and we used to contact him in case we need his service.
Don't have a family Electrician yet? Well, if you're in Oregon and looking for a Portland Electrician, Oakley Electric company has the best men to provide you the best service.
Don't hesitate to visit them at http://www.oakleyelec.com.

Moody Day

2011-08-05T13:22:00.000-07:00

I'm really not in the good mood yesterday. Look, i am trying my best to be productive on both house and work but it seems that all my efforts are not working effectively at all. Oh not to mention the stress brought to me by this silly weather. I was planning to go out with friends yesterday, hoping that it could help me to, somehow, forget my problems but here goes the stupid weather, leaving us no choice but to postponed our plan. Isn't just great!!! >.<
Oh here's one more thing, We found out that the water is leaking from the roof in our kitchen. There were some unwanted stain on the ceiling and I suspect that it's all because of the roof leak. How i wish there's someone in our house knows how to fix this thing. Well, i don't mind climbing the roof but I just don't know where to start and how to trace those leaks. As you all know, half of my dad's body were paralyzed after he got stroke last 2001, and so being the eldest, i know i am the one responsible for this but i just can't take the risk because i'm really not good when it comes to this household thing.
Well, we can hire someone from the neighborhood but i don't think it's a good idea as well. How if they will just make the condition much worst knowing that they do not have enough skills and experience in such matter. Perhaps, we can hire professional Roofers to fix the roof. At least we know that they can fix the job satisfactorily. I might consider replacing the roof as well. These galvanized iron roofs were already there since we transferred to this house so i guess it's just right for them to be replaced.
Well, i don't know what kind of mood will I have today. Sounds weird but my mood changes everyday. I just wish no one will ruin my day today or else ..... haha
Well maybe my mind is just like the weather after all ~ full of attitude.

Hitting Public Bathrooms

2011-08-03T17:08:00.000-07:00

Did i mentioned to you guys that i never go to any public bathroom? Yeah, i know it sounds weird but it's true. But of course i have my reason for it and it's all because of my horrible experiences with public bathrooms most especially when i hit one of the public bathrooms in our province in Ilocos. Oh God, i just can't take it. How i wish i can show you the pictures but i lost them all after reformatting my pc but let me describe you how horrible it was.
Well, I know it's a public CR and everyone is free to use the facility but it doesn't mean that the place don't need a regular maintenance. The bathroom is located near the wet market so once you step inside, you'll see how muddy the floor is. You can see those dark spots in their tiled walls and some molds growing on each corner. Disgusting right? Well here's more.
The bowl is like nightmare if you asked me. It was clogged and the flush is not working. And since the flush is not working, i have to pour water to submerge the waste (that's the only way you can do to get rid of the clogged toilet). And the smell, oh God, it's more like you'll be gasping for breath. There might be something wrong with their plumbing system and maybe we can submit a complain to the owner or caretaker of that place. They should fix this issue and hire a professional Plumbing service to get rid of the clogged toilet and the unwanted smell.
They really need to fix it before making the condition worst.
So there you go, that's the reason why i never hit any public bathroom. Yikes.

Fish Care

2011-07-27T08:37:00.000-07:00

When i was a kid, i remember we had a huge Asian Arowana in huge aquarium placed in our living room but it died for some unknown reason. As far as I know my mom is extremely taking care of that fish and feed the Arowana on time.
They said that Asian arowanas are paternal mouthbrooders. They are slow to reach sexual maturity and difficult to breed in captivity. Successful spawnings typically take place in large outdoor ponds rather than in aquarium and that might be the cause why the Arowana that we had died immediately. Oh well, since then, my mom decided not to have any fishes as her pet at home. She decided to pay more attention with her kitties and dogs.
Though, i'm still looking for opportunity to buy a new fish and to take care of it it. Instead of Arowana (which is quite expensive here), i am aiming more to have a Betta fish after reading some useful fish care tips from http://bettafishcare.us. Betta are just small fishes and they are not as expensive as the Arowanas especially when it comes to maintenance. They are not big eaters and you only have to fed them once a day or every other day.
I was amazed to see those amazing pictures of Siamese Fighting fish online. They are so gorgeous looking and now i am eager to have them as pet woohoo.. Wish me luck

Choosing the Right Mail Order Bride Agency

Internet has been a very powerful tool so it is impossible that you are not aware with it but the question here is, will you ever consider this kind of process? Yup, I know some of you might say that it is more of a desperate act of looking for someone to marry, but we're on digital age now so do not be surprised that this kind of International Marriage agencies do exist.
I actually prefer to use International Marriage agencies rather than "mail to order brides" companies because it sounds more decent to me.
So what's with these companies? How they can help those individuals? They are actually more of a dating site, a place where you can meet single women, however, these companies are aiming for deeper relationship.
Considering this kind of industry is not a bad idea at all as long as you are dealing with a reputable, honest and competent Mail order brides company. You really have to chose the right company because there are some agencies that force young women to be married to someone abroad which is definitely an evident sign of female trafficking... and that it something that we don't want to happen right? So just choose a reputable one.

Making your House More Appealing

2011-06-18T14:07:00.000-07:00

How can you make your house more appealing? For me, it's not just about how expensive your furniture are. Actually, those furniture are useless without proper maintenance right? As a house owner you have many responsibilities not just to make your house more appealing but also to keep your family safe and secure.
Providing regular maintenance is among the first things that you have to prioritize. You have to do this to preserve your furniture and to maintain their nice appearance. Your Windows for example should be cleaned on a daily basis. If you left it unmaintained and there are big tendencies that the window will break easily, leaving you no choice but to replace it.
If ever you ended up replacing the window, then just make sure that the person you hired is well trained for this kind of work. I understand that most of us are looking for cheaper ways even if it means that we just have to hire someone from the neighborhood regardless if he has an experience about this field or not. But we have to analyze everything. Take note that the lifespan of your window depends on how well the workmanship is so if you hired an inexperience one, then most likely you will end up replacing the windows again which only means that you have to pay for another service fee.
Lucky you if you are in Oregon and looking for a good and well trusted Windows Portland Replacement service because Four Seasons Company is ready to help you with your windows issue and can fix it in no time. I just wish i could find the same service here in my country.

Before and After You Buy A Car

2011-05-31T14:27:00.000-07:00

There are so many things that you have to consider before and after buying a car.

Of course, you have to choose first the right car and the right car dealer. You have to consider your budget as well. You have to choose a car that will suit your style and taste.
And now, once you have the car, it is now your turn to make it your own by personalizing it either by upgrading its parts or installing some cool gadgets inside. We all want the best for our car right? That's why we are trying to make it more appealing as much as we can. Though we have to remember that there are so many important things to consider first other than making it more eye-catching and appealing to your eyes.All those accessories will be useless if your car can't perform well. Better upgrade your engine and bring it on an auto repair shop for regular check ups. Remember that a smooth driving experience depends on how well your engine performs.
Aside from upgrading the engine, make sure that you get Car insurance for your car too to hedge the risk of any devastating loss. Though there is no assurance that all major expenses will be covered by your Insurance company.
You better get an Extended Auto Warranty too especially if the original warranty is about to end. This will help you to lessen those unexpected repair expenses since the warranty will cover them all. Good thing modern technology made it much easier for us to get auto warranty because you can now apply online in which you can save money too.

Smooth Driving Experience

2011-05-27T23:08:00.000-07:00

How do you define a smooth driving experience? Will you base it on how expensively-looking your car is? Will you base it on how many gadgets or high tech accessories installed inside your car? Well, as for me, a smooth driving experience depends on how well your engine performs. I'm sure you do not want to stress out yourself whenever your engine fails right?
So instead of focusing more on how to make your car more appealing, why don't you pay attention first on upgrading your engine.
But of course, it will not just end by simply upgrading your engine, as a car owner, you are responsible of maintaining your car in good condition in a regular basis.
It is also advisable that you bring your car to the nearest auto repair shop for the regular check ups. They can determine whether a spare part should be removed, repair or replace.

Lower back pain might be a sign of aging but we have to be aware that it can be a sign or symptoms of some serious illness too. We often ignore the back pain actually which is really not right. We should be very conscious with our health so every time that you feel the pain in your back, then you better seek for some medical advices rather than ignoring it because you might regret it later if the condition went worst.

2011-05-23T15:04:00.000-07:00

Are you familiar with the game called "FlyFF", a shortened name for Fly For Fun, a successful and popular Multi-Media Online Role Playing game.

High Tuition Fees?

2011-05-14T12:42:00.000-07:00

Just like what i said from my previous entries, Milzon and Mirasol are both preparing for their upcoming School Enrollment. We are set to buy the school supplies that they need including the notebooks, bags and uniform this coming May 21. That's the most convenient time i have and then after that, i will join my mom in paying their tuition fees. Well, Mirasol do not need any tuition fees since she is studying now in a Public High School but I'm sure the school will ask for some miscellaneous fees like PTA , Medical or whatsoever.
We decided to enroll Milzon in a private school so that they can teach him in advance and then he can go to public once he reached High school just like what Mirasol did. However, i think i have to cut down my budget this month knowing that Milzon's tuition fee went high this year. I got the form already and I found out that they will be having additional books and academic activities which is good. The school is known for providing high quality education and most of their students are competing internationally and i am confident that these additional fees are for Milzon's own good as well.
But since i am not expecting this, i think i have to apply for another Quick Cash Loan to help me with my other expenses. I really don't mind applying for payday loans if ever my budget is short. Besides, they are just short term loans and paying them is not that hard since you will be dealing for small amounts only. It is really advisable for some who is in need for a fast cash. If you are interested, you may want to visit Capital Finance Web, one of the top leading service providers for online payday loans today on their official webpage at http://www.capitalfinanceweb.com/. They are also offering other types of loans including Auto loans and Personal loans. Fell free to check their site and see how Payday loans can help you with your monthly budget too!

Summer Plan

2011-05-10T00:03:00.000-07:00

Summer is here and I'm sure most of you are planning now to hit the beach or spend time with your family and do an out of town trip. Well, that sounds great but we have to consider the budget as well. Your budget will tell what kind of location or what type of summer activities you can try without ruining your preferred budget.

Planning summer vacation is such a great idea since it is the perfect time to relax, unwind and to keep all the stress away brought to you by your work. Most people grab this opportunity as well to spend quality time for their family, something that they can't do because of the busy schedule that they have. However, we have to keep in mind that this vacation will cut down your budget as well especially if you are aiming to spend it in a very special or luxurious place.
But of course, we do not want to ruin our plans just because of the limited budget that we have right? If this is the case, then why not apply for a Payday Loan Online! It is very in demand today and most people used this loan to cover the rest of their expenses for the month. It has a fast approval process and you'll get the cash in no time.
Well, it is true that we can find so many alternative plans that will not cost us a lot but if you insist to have that very special summer outing, then why not start applying for a payday loan and make those plans possible.
Happy Summer everyone!

Hiring a Landscape Designer

2011-05-06T20:45:00.000-07:00

It is nice to experiment and explore some cool new ideas for your lawn but doing it alone knowing the fact that you do not have enough skills and experience, well these ideas may just ruin your lawn and you will just end up spending most of your money to fix it.
It's true that landscaping can be a "Do it Yourself" activity but it can only be possible if you have the right materials to be used for such a heavy duty job. There are specific equipments that are being used for specific landscaping procedure and only Landscaping companies like the Landscaping Phoenix in Arizona can provide them all to you. Well you can purchase the item or equipments individually but you have to spend a lot of money for that.
Landscaping consume a lot of time too since you have to pay attention to every single details if you want to make your landscape more appealing. So letting the experts do this job will definitely save your time, giving you opportunities to spend quality time with your family.
Yup, you can illustrate your desired landscape to your mind but making it possible is such a big challenge too. You cannot execute all your plans effectively so i suggest that you hire an expert landscape designer to make all these things possible. They can even give you or suggest you some great ideas or designs which can be very appropriate for the style and size of your lawn.

Essential Oils

2011-04-30T05:02:00.000-07:00

Have you ever tried using essential body oils? My mom used to buy essential oils and apply it on her skin almost after every bath. She said that she feel very warm and comfortable whenever she apply it on her and it feels like all her stress were washed away in an instant. I tried it once and i feel the same way too.

Yes it's true that these so called essential oils has therapeutic effect that no other oils can offer. You can try Fragrance Oil or Perfume Oils but you can never feel the effect that an essential oil can offer. Both Fragrance and Perfume Oils are artificially made and contain artificial substances unlike essential oils that are made naturally from plants.
I remember my friend Foongpc sent me a gift after his trip to Indonesia. It was a soap made from Sandalwood, a fragrant wood and one of a great source of essential oils.

It includes a mini bottle of Essential oil too which is made from Frangipani. Here in our province we called it "Kalachuchi"

Well, i haven't tried both of them because i decided to keep them as one of my blogging memorabilia but i wonder how it feels when you used them. Anyway, i can always buy essential oils either online or in some drug stores near my place. Errr... my skin gets dry easily lately and i suspect that it is because of the weather here. I bet i need a moisturizer now so i better use essential oil rather than those commercially and artificially produced.

Win Or Lose Game

2011-04-30T04:35:00.000-07:00

Establishing a business is like playing a Win or Lose Strategy. You do not know if the business will be successful or will turn out as a big Failure. But if you are a professional one, you should know how to play this game wisely whether you win it or lose it, you should stay strong and never be discouraged about failures. Just think of it as a "Trial and Error" game. You should keep on trying until you found the perfect recipe towards a successful business.
If ever you faced Bankruptcy , do not feel down and treat it more as a challenge more than as a failure. This will teach you a good lesson whether what step should you take or what step should not to avoid the possible bankruptcy in the near future.
Again, you have to play this game wisely and I'm sure you do not want to shoulder everything after the devastating loss of your business right? This is the reason why all business owners file a Bankruptcy report to save them from paying all these debts. Bankruptcy follows certain responsibility and you are obliged to solve them all but if you file bankruptcy report, it will save you from drowning into so many debts and will help you to stand again and start your new business life once again.
Bankruptcy is not an end point, it is just a start and a stepping stone towards a successful business.

Cleaning Windows in a regular Basis

2011-04-30T04:12:00.000-07:00

Windows are like Clothes. You should clean them in a regular basis and make them more appealing once again after every wash. The lifespan of your windows depends on you. You have to maintain them regularly to keep them in a good condition. If you failed to do so, then the windows might get brittle and will get damage easily.
Dust particles or the what so called Pollutants are the worst enemy of your windows. Too much exposure to them will cause etching which weakens your window. Water from rain or too much moisture will also cause severe damage to your window which can result to unwanted stain which is hard or almost impossible to be removed and which will leave you no choice but to replace the window entirely. We all know how expensive the cost of window replacement right? So i suggest that you keep an eye on it and make sure that you included this task on your house chore lists. Or it is much better to hire experts and let them do the rest of the window cleaning job for you. You're lucky if you find a company that offers a high quality service like that Window Cleaning Portland being offered in Oregon.
Hiring Window Cleaning Services is also advisable because they can tell you if you really need a replacement or if there's something wrong with the installation and other faulty stuffs on it. It can save your time too allow you to spend more time with your family.

Knowing More about Option Trading

2011-04-23T23:51:00.000-07:00

They said that one of the effective way of making good profits with small risk is through the nature of option trading. I'm not really sure how the exact process goes but i am really curious and intrigued how much will it help me to become a successful man.
Option trading is something that requires a lot of understanding. They said that option trading is a kind of risk management that really works. Option trading is different from Stock trading. Well, I never experience any of these stock trading stuffs but i heard how risky it could be to some Stock traders. It is like a win or lose game. Some might end up losing their shares or will end up exiting his trade while others are very fortunate to get more profit from it. This only shows that stock trading simply can't guarantee you since Stock market fluctuations will destroy your trade unlike the what so-called option trading which can protect you from any losses and will guarantee you a huge percentage of success rate.
Option strategy provides a limited risk so i am not wondering why most investors are more into option trading because they can earn more profit from it. There are two types of option trading, Put Option and Call option.
Put Options give the option buyer the right the sell the underlying asset while Call Options give the option buyer the right to buy the underlying asset. I'm kind confused with these two but they said that when you buy put option it enables you to profit when the markets fall without having to sell short stock.
How about you guys? What do yah think about Option Trading? Feel free to share your thoughts and let us know. Have a great day and happy blogging!

The Use of Power Generators

2011-04-23T23:11:00.000-07:00

Do you have a Generator at home? Well, lucky you, because we do not have that kind of expensive equipment but we are aware how important a power generator could be especially in case of emergency like wide black outs and other similar scenarios.
Our neighbor have this portable power generator and every time there is a huge brown out or black out in our area, they use the generator to supply sufficient amount of electricity on their house.
I remember during the Typhoon Ondoy, they let most of our neighbors including me to charge the battery of our phones. We all know how important the communication is during that time especially if you want to contact someone from your relatives and ask them if they are doing okay and if their area is safe from the typhoon.
Well, that made me realized how important this equipment is. How i wish we could have one but the price of it is pretty expensive though i have heard that an equipment like this can be rented from something like Rental Equipment Portland in Oregon.
Aside from providing extra power source during the black outs, generators are widely use too in some outdoor activities that is beyond the reach of any cable extension.

2011-04-23T16:40:00.000-07:00

Summer vacation

2011-04-20T19:05:00.000-07:00

I'm sure you guys are planning to spend your Summer Vacation somewhere else right? We used to hit the beach every summer and doing this yearly routine is kinda boring already. Right now, we're planning of something more adventurous. It's been a tradition for us to visit our relatives every Summer and it seems that we will be doing it again this year, however, instead of staying there at my grandma's house and instead of hitting the beach nearby, we are planning to explore other places that we've never been in that province.
It would be great to go mountain climbing or camping near that venue. Though i am not sure if we are allowed to enter that location or if the mountain is open for public. If that's the case, then better think of another plan. I think we better start looking for some bike racks for cars so that we can all bring our bikes and do some cycling to at least keep ourselves away from getting too bored. We do not have bike racks installed yet in my dad's car and i'm sure there are bike racks for suvs available out there. I guess we should check it online too.
How i wish we can come up with a nice plan for this upcoming summer trip in Pangasinan or else we will end up hitting the beach again. Sobs.

Poor ChiChi

2011-04-14T17:32:00.000-07:00

Remember Chi Chi? If you are my follower on Twitter since March 2010, then you know how hard we've been through when our beloved Chi chi suffered from severe pain and passed away. Too bad we failed to bond with Chi chi since she passed away too soon.
I know it's our fault and we failed to fulfill our duty as a pet owner. It is our responsibility to take care of her and provide her all that she needs.
We noticed some weird to her a week before she passed away but we just ignored it knowing that she used to be like that ever since she was given to us. We were just so surprised when she started to act so differently and she don't even move into another place where she stay. Then she started to be so weak and we were all bothered by that. We should have bought her to a Vet and provide her medical assistance. We should have avoided any worst scenario if we brought her to a Vet as early as she started to act differently. We are so irresponsible and there's no one to be blame than us.
I hope this serves a lesson to you guys too. Make sure you bring your pet to a well trusted Vet like that Vet Tacoma in Washington in a regular basis to keep their health on tract.

A Practical Option

2011-04-13T11:30:00.000-07:00

Have you ever tried renting or leasing an equipment? I know it's common to hear such words when you are referring to ab boarding space or a house or a lot but how about equipments? Have you ever tried leasing for them? Is there really such thing as Equipment Leasing. Yup! There are companies that offer such kind of service. Equipment leasing is where a company allows a borrower to rent or lease their equipments (either used or new) whether for personal or business purposes.
Don't you think it is a very practical option especially for those who can't afford to buy or for those who can't pay it for cash immediately? I have heard that most businesses today are making use of such service to save more money and to earn more profit. With all that, i can certainly say that this kind of service is a practical option not just for those who wanted to run a business but also for those individuals who are looking for some great alternatives to save more money.
We are all experiencing a what so called Global financial crisis and we should all be wise in spending our money and this equipment leasing is one of the most effective solution to make all that savings possible. How about you? Will you consider leasing for an equipment to save money too?

Spring Has Arrived! Time For Doing the Landscape

2011-04-05T13:13:00.000-07:00

Spring is the perfect time for bird watching. It is also a great time to see all those colorful flowers blooming around your garden. And I'm sure most of you are on vacation this month, so why not spend your time in your garden right? Gardening is a great hobby and in fact, my mom is so hooked to it. Aside from the enjoyment that it gives, it will also keep you away from getting too bored. Seeing your garden blossoming with so many beautiful ornaments and flowers, is like a big achievement already.
However, no matter how many flowers blooming in your garden and no matter how much they add color into it, they will be useless if there are so many grasses growing around the area. Grasses are nothing but distractions in any garden unless we are referring to those expensive landscape grasses like Bermuda grass.
This is the reason why landscape maintenance should be applied in a regular basis. Removing or mowing grasses would be very stressing for sure but again, if you want to make your garden more appealing, you have to bear with all those stress. Or maybe, you can simply hire something like Landscape Vancouver Wa Maintenance services. These guys know what to do and will ensure you to get a very satisfying landscape. They sure have the right equipments for all your landscaping needs.

Cigarette Smoking

2011-04-05T07:18:00.000-07:00

Do you smoke? How much or how many packs of cigarettes do you consume everyday? My dad is such a smoker and believe it or not he can consume 4 - 6 packs of cigarettes daily. I know that it is very unhealthy for him that's why we try to convince him to stop or at least lessen his consumption of cigarette. Nicotine is the major substance that can be found in the cigarette which makes a smoker addicted to it. It is an addictive substance that can bring several harmful effects to our body. Smoking increases the risk of developing lung cancer. Aside from the risk of developing lung cancer, smoking can also cause other cancers including pharynx, esophagus, larynx, pancreas, cervix, bladder, and even kidney. It can also cause other respiratory-related diseases like emphysema, heart attack, cataracts and impotence. My grandpa died because of severe emphysema in which he got from tobacco smoking.
These harmful effects of cigarette smoking has been taught to us even when we are in grade school. Even the cigarette manufacturers are giving awareness about it by showing warning signs on their cigarette packets. But how come it is so hard for a smoker to give up this unhealthy habit?
Actually, it is very easy for a smoker to give up this habit. With proper counseling and by encouraging him to have a healthy lifestyle, I'm sure you can do it with no ease. However, they said that it is also unhealthy for an individual to stop cigarette smoking as easy as like that. They said that once smokers become dependent on nicotine, they may experience strong physical and emotional withdrawal symptoms if they try to give up. These symptoms may include irritability, dizziness, anxiety, headaches, lack of concentration, disturbed sleeping patterns, feelings of anger and depression. If a smoker is willing to give up this habit, it will take a very long process for him. He may start this process by minimizing his daily consumption. You can also use other alternatives for cigarettes like the use of electronic cigarette which is very in demand today. Electronic cigarette is said to be healthier way of smoking. They said that these new way of cigarette smoking can help smokers to stop or reduce their addiction to those conventional cigarettes or tobacco.
Ecigarettes are smokeless cigarettes. They are safe, non polluting, non flammable and most of all, they are healthy knowing that the ingredients of the electronic cigarettes are not cancer-causing agents. Well, I better buy e cigarette starter kits for my dad and let him try this new, healthy and great alternative for his cigarettes. Though i do not have any idea what brand should i buy for him. Of course, i do not want to disappoint my dad about this so i better look the best ecigar for him. A friend of mine suggested me to try Smoketip for my dad. He have read several smoketip reviews online already and he saw a lot of positive feedback about it. Maybe i should try this one.
How about you guys? What do yah think about E-cigarettes? Great Idea right?

Granite Installation

2011-04-04T12:52:00.000-07:00

Compare to Ceramic tiles or vinyl tiles, granite installation is not a project for a Do it Yourself homeowner. Yes I know you are trying to seek ways to save money from the installation cost but installing it all by yourself will be very risky especially if you do not have the right knowledge and equipments for it. We know how expensive granite is compare to other materials and I am sure you do not want to waste that money by taking the risk of installing it by yourself. It is still best to let the professional do the jobs for you. They know what to do and they were trained for it. They also have the right materials and equipment to be used.
The durability and the quality of your granite counter top will be depend on how well the workmanship is being applied to it. So better let the professionals do it for you. Granite might be an expensive material but the quality and the elegance it provides cannot be found to other materials like ceramic and glass.
Granite is much better to marble too.
If you are interested to know more about granite, you can visit http://www.marblecityca.com/ and see what else the site has to offer.

House Renovation Photos

2011-03-25T02:40:00.001-07:00

The Photos above are taken last year as were having a major renovation in our house.
In Photo A: We decided to extend the wall, separating our area from the neighbor. We are also planning to renovate the terrace and covered it with roof.
In Photo B: The man the we hired is working on with the Post. I think he is pouring the cement onto it.
In Photo C: Shows the big mess brought by the on going construction. I think the renovation took almost 3 months. And i can tell you how messy and irritating that was.
In Photo D: In comparison with the Photo A, as you can see, they began putting floor tiles and they also applied the finishing touches and coated the wall.
In Photo E: Here, we actually decided to take the transparent roof away. I just don't have a closer photo but the roof was just nothing but messy. I think that's a common problem in all fiber and synthetic roof.
In Photo F: That's the time when they install the roof for our terrace. Though we encountered some issues here because a month after the construction, we found some stain forming in the ceiling which is obviously a sign of roof leeks. Well, we should have hire someone like those Roofers Portland has. We ended up hiring roofers again to fix it. Well we take that as a lesson.
How about you how's your experiences during the renovation in your house? Care to Share?

Look for a Competent and Honest Repair Shop

2011-03-23T22:40:00.000-07:00

We had so many horrible auto repair experiences and a one whole sheet of paper would not be enough to tell you all the details. Well, most of them are some issues regarding about the poor quality of their repair while others are about the unfair pricing of their shop for the service they have done for my car.
I'm sure you feel so upset too whenever someone taking advantage of you right? Over Pricing is really a big no no for me. That is why i keep on advising my friends to be very observant and wise. If you went to some other shops before then you can keep them as your reference whether the shop is taking advantage of you by charging you so high or not.
You can also ask your friends too to help you finding out a competent and honest repair shop like what that Auto Body Repair Portland Shop does.
Because of those unwanted auto repair experiences, i started to became a bit choosy on what and where repair shop should i bring my car. I don't care how far would it be as long as i will received a very satisfying, competent and honest service from them. How about you guys? Will you do the same thing too? I'm sure we all want the best for our cars right?

Let's Pray and Help Japan

2011-03-22T20:55:00.000-07:00

I am just a simple student who also work to survive. Prayer is my only tool to help this people. Prayer is a very powerful tool that each of us can offer to help the victims of Japan. I know everything happens for a reason and God has plans for them. Let's all offer our prayers to help them recover from this nightmare.
I just saw this wonderful offer from PostNJoy, a blog advertising company. This post is actually a sponsored post but we are doing this for a good cause. WE WILL NOT BE PAID for this opportunity and instead, the prize fund WILL BE DONATED for Japan.

Right now the people of Japan are in crisis, their resources are stretched thin, and they need our help.

Advantage of Having A Brief Knowledge About Auto Repair

2011-03-17T17:07:00.000-07:00

Auto repair is an activity that can be done at home. It can be a "Do it Yourself" activity but even though you can do it yourself, you have to make sure that you do it right or else, you will just make the condition even worst.
It is necessary for every car owner to have at least a brief knowledge about troubleshooting so that in case a technical issue occurred while you're on the road, you can do something to remedy the situation but of course, all that you can provide are the basic troubleshooting and if it failed to work out, then better call a technician or bring your car to a auto repair shop near you.
The other reason why you should have at least a brief technical knowledge about car and some basic troubleshooting is to prevent those unprofessional technician to take advantage of you.
Yup, we can't deny the fact that there are some repair shop that do take advantage of their customer. They will give you wrong issues and false results and they will charge you more than the actual price. Well, if you let them know that you know what they are doing, at least they will be afraid to trick you or take advantage of you.
I also suggest that if ever you are planning to bring your car into an auto repair shop, make sure you bring it to a shop that is already known for providing high quality service like the Auto Repair Federal Way in Washington has. All their technician are well trained and professional and your car will surely be in good hands.

The Acacia Tree

2011-03-17T15:58:00.000-07:00

We have this huge Acacia tree near our house and it is kinda tiring because we have to sweep all those leaves that fell from that tree. Actually it is like a daily routine already. Every morning mom will wake up so early to clean the yard and the garden as well. We have a mini garden outside which is being handled by my mom. However, this Acacia tree is always messing it up because of the non stop falling of leaves from it. As if every time the wind blows, a bunch of leaves will fall from it and it is kinda irritating to clean them every now and then.
I don't have a picture with me now so i just grab a picture online.
Here's how an Acacia Tree looks like. See? It has tiny leaves and a bunch of them are falling from that tree every time the wind blows. What's more if there is a strong typhoon that hits our country right?
Actually i really don't mind how tiring this daily routine could be, what makes me worry a lot are the leaves and branches that are being stocked on our roof and gutters. I think it is about time for us to hire a service like that Gutter Cleaning Portland Services. Removing those leaves fro the gutters could be a little risky for us so it is much better to avail such service to help us out.

Is it Practical to Get Janitorial Service?

2011-03-10T10:58:00.000-08:00

Is it really practical to get a Janitorial Service at home? Well, it is really a case to case basis and it depends how badly you need an assistance in cleaning your house. Nowadays, janitors are being hired not just for the commercial and industrial establishments, you can now get a janitorial services for your house too! Well the question is,is it really practical to get one?
Well, getting a janitorial services is like getting a housemaid too though in a different way. Housemaid is more of a stay-in helper while Janitors have their own schedules when to drop by at your house. Housemaid is more likely to be an all around helper at home while Janitors have limited scope. I think it is practical to get a janitorial service especially if you are a busy guy who can't handle all the pressure from work and other business related stuffs. Not to mention if you are a working mom and has children to take care about.
It is also practical if you're place is too big and it is pretty stressing to clean it all by yourself. Janitors are commonly being hired by some commercial establishment owners but actually they are also open for residential services. But if you are planning to get such service, make sure it is as high quality as what Janitorial Services Seattle Washington has.
Over all, hiring janitors isn't bad idea at all!

Treasure Hunting is Fun

2011-03-08T13:51:00.000-08:00

Doing you're regular routine could be a bit boring and don't you think it's nice to do something else just for a change. Well i don't mind doing some other activities as long as it could be fun and entertaining. What do you think about mountain climbing? Sounds fun right? I guess it would be great if you'll take your family with yours and have some cool games and activities like treasure hunting for example.

Yup! We commonly see this kind of fun activity on tv but actually, treasure hunting can happen in real life and in fact, you can have this as a hobby and you can even take it seriously. But of course, it would not be that easy and is definitely a big challenge especially for beginners. Well i have heard that there are some sites that offer training courses for this. This will give you an idea how the real treasure hunting is done. Of course, just like any other course, you'll start with the basics.
And if you really want to become a professional treasure hunter, then better buy a tool like that XJ9-3050 metal detector i saw online yesterday. XJ9-3050 is dubbed as one of the world's most astonishing metal detectors. It is being used by many professional treasure hunters today because of its high quality.
Well, i guess doing something like treasure hunting isn't bad at all don't yah think?

Public Bathroom Experience

2011-03-02T13:10:00.000-08:00

Sounds weird but i never really go to any public bathroom. I had so many unwanted experiences in public bathrooms which made me decide not to go there anymore. I remember when i went to my mom's province to visit my cousins, I had the most horrible bathroom experience. Well, we went to a market that time when i decided to go to one of the market's cubicles. I must say that it was the most horrifying bathroom i have ever seen in my life. Too bad i don't have any picture here but i can tell you how disgusting it was.
The floor tiles have so many dark spots and some moss in the corners of the wall. The bowl is like a nightmare. The bathroom is nothing but sickening and disgusting. Not to mentioned the clogged toilet bowl. Good thing they have lots of water stored there. The flush is not working so i have to pour water to submerge the waste. Errrr. They should have contacted a plumber to fix all those issue. I'm sure a lot of people are complaining about it too.
Anyway, that situation taught me a lesson that i should hire a plumber from time to time to avoid any plumbing issues. I just wish we have something like plumbing services in singapore . I have heard that they are offering a 24/7 plumbing services there.

The Mystical World of Warcraft

2011-03-02T10:56:00.000-08:00

World of Warcraft is probably one of the most in demand MMORPG today. It is one of my favorite PC games along with Fly For Fun (FlyFF), Ragnarok and Diablo. However, WoW has something more interesting to offer that any other MMORPG can bring. In the mystical universe of Warcraft, it takes a lot of strategy and preparation to succeed in epic battles between humans, arcs, night elves, and the undead.Well, first you have to choose whether you are on the Alliance or Horde side and then after that, you can choose from any different races that belongs to the faction you have chosen. Because of the game's popularity, some spin off or custom games have been developed like DOTA or Defense of the Ancient where heroes are buffed up to destroy other heroes. However, I still prefer the original game because it has a storyline and stick only into one central theme.Aside from the battles, you will also be dealing with other activities like chopping trees, mining for gold, or building farms for food.These activities will help boosts your character's stamina, strength and more. Another interesting part of the gameplay are the quests that you have to complete to raise your level.
Right now, the version of warcraft that i have is the WotLK or World of Warcraft: Warth of the Lich King but i have heard that there is a new version known as Cataclysm which was released last December. I have heard that it has so many new features including the two new races, Goblins and Worgen.
Warcraft is such a very interesting game though you may find it quite complicated at first especially if it's your first time to play the game. So to avoid any confusions i suggest that you take some time on reading world of warcraft guides. This will help you not just to easily understand that entire gameplay but also to become more effective on the game.

Defeated the Master

2011-02-25T13:23:00.000-08:00

Finally, i was able to beat the Master! I told you about this game before and i have mentioned how difficult it was to beat Maven (the computer generated opponent), in the Master Round. It took me ages to beat this guy and my brain was completely drained after beating him. And guess what? I managed to beat Maven on the champion round too. And take note! I never use the dictionary to help me out constructing long words. (defensive? hahaha). Anyway, i am now on it's last round and i feel like I am a prodigy already. Reaching the last round is such a big achievement already and defeating Maven for this round is highly impossible so I better give up now.
Maven can take up to 90 seconds thinking during a move and how the hell can i beat him? He can manage to use all the 7 tiles in almost every turn. What the?
Well, Maybe this is the end of the line now between me and Maven and I better look for some other browsergames. I just heard about the game known as Goodfellas 1930. It is a free browser game that is somehow similar to the Mafia Wars being played in Facebook but it offers more thrills and excitement compare to other Mafia Games.
The good thing about browser game is that, you do not have to download anything just to play it. You simply have to access the site and that's it, you're ready to play!
Okay, that's all for now guys, need to sleep now! Will talk more about games in my next entries so keep an eye on it.

Sentinel or Scourge?

2011-02-25T12:55:00.000-08:00

Are you a Sentinel or a Scourge? If you know the game Warcraft, then you must be familiar with these two terms. Sentinels are the good guys while Scourge are those on the dark side of the team. Actually, i used to play DOTA instead of the Warcraft game. DOTA or Defense of the Ancient is like a spin off game from the Original World of WarCraft game. Here, your goals is to defeat your enemy which controlled by the other player. DOTA is a LAN game so you can play it with your friends as long as you have multiple computers at home.
The game is solely derived from the orginal Warcraft. The characters or better known as Heroes are the also the characters you can find in Warcraft game.
It doesn't really matter if you're on the good or bad side as long as you have the right strategy to defeat your opponent.
You will have to choose your Hero here as your main character. If you are a Sentinel, i suggest that you use Rhasta of the Tavern Clan. He is a hero with a powerful range magic abilities. His skills include Forked Lightning, Mass Serpant Ward, and Voodoo. Zeus and Azwraith are great heroes too.
If you chose the Scourge tribe, then better use Banehallow. He is great in tearing enemies to bits. This tough guy uses spells like Summon Wolves, Shapeshifter, and Feral Heart. Viper is a good one too as he is genius in wearing enemies down in his talent in archery. He uses skills like Frenzy, Poison Attack, and Vipe Strike.
DOTA is a game that you will enjoy playing with your friends but of course, there's nothing could be more exciting than the original Warcraft game. This game will measure how creative you are in making decisions and will test how far your strategic skills can go. But if this is your first time to play this game, better search for some world of warcraft guides to help you out in accomplishing your mission.
Happy gaming guys!

Time To Upgrade Your Tv!

2011-02-16T23:03:00.000-08:00

Are you sick of using your old 21 inch colored TV? Well i guess it's time for you to think of upgrading your TV into something better and more entertaining. I'm sure all of us are looking forward to a great TV experience right and the way to have that great watching experience is not just about the program that we are watching but also the TV that we are using.
We are in the digital world now and there are so many high tech models of tv being released in the market today. One of the latest model would be the LCD TV and LED TV. But why should we really have to upgrade your tv? If you spend a lot of time watching television, then it really make sense to me that you deserve something better to satisfy your watching right?
LCD TV are usually wired to "High Definition". I'm sure you have seen some advertisements about this kind of tv right? They used to provide graphics that are high in definition as if you can view every single details on your screen clearly. They are in wider screen too!
They are also offering great audio system and they are not space consuming as the normal sized televisions.
With all of these , i'm sure you have no reason to say "No" to upgrade your tv into something better like LCD!

Helping Him To get a Job!

2011-02-04T11:54:00.000-08:00

Sorry guys if i failed to update my blogs recently. It's just that i am so busy with my work and i will be busier these following days because i have to help my cousin to get a job. Auntie Mary is requesting me to help his son Aaron to get a job. Well, i really don't know when and how to start helping my cousin. I am not a part of an HR department and i do not have that power to hire someone in our company since i am just a regular employee there. However, i can give him some tips on how to be employed in our company since i have been through all their application process. From the exam up to the final interview. I can definitely guide him there.
But of course, it will still depend on his performance and how well he answered the questions on both written exam and interviews.
Interview is probably the hardest part of all the application process. Here, you will be tested if you are really qualified for the position. Acing the job interview will be very easy if you prepared yourself for it. Groom properly as it plays a very important role in creating good impression. Promote your self and prove them that you have what it takes to become a part of their company but do not over do it as it will disappoint the interviewer.
But of course, before paying more attention to the interview, you should have to check first if you are physically fit to work by undergoing some medical exam and drug testing. You have to pass a drug test if you want the company to hire you. It is very important for a company to know that you are fit to work so that they will not have any troubles in the near future about your health.
Most companies have their own clinic for these medical exams but it would be better to take it in advance to ensure if you will pass the exam or not.

Our Guess

2011-02-02T16:11:00.000-08:00

We just got a call yesterday from Aunt Ruby saying that she'll be hitting Manila this coming February. We're all very excited because it's been decade since we last saw her in person. Aunt Ruby is my father's only sister and is now residing at Oklahoma. Since she do not have a house here, she'll be staying with us for about 2 months that's why my mom is starting to prepare for it. We want Aunt Ruby to enjoy our stay with us and i will be offering my room for her. I started to clear up those mess in my room. However, we've been having some trouble with our bathroom because the shower is not working and the water from our faucet drains very slow. We do not want to disappoint our Aunt just because of these plumbing issues so i asked my mom that it's better to hire a plumber like the Plumber Portland Or has to put an end with this Plumbing system malfunctions. It has to be fixed as early as this week because Aunt Ruby will be here anytime this month.

Very Stressing Day

2011-01-16T08:24:00.000-08:00

What a very stressing day! Finally the issue about my domains has been resolved! I'd been out from the blogosphere for almost a week just to fix this issue with my Web hosting provider. Well, i just transferred 4 of my domains to a new web hosting service provider! It was really a complicated thing and i faced a lot of technical issues about my sites. In fact, one of them was accidentally became a subdomain of the other one. But thanks God i was able to fix this issue with the help of my very close blogger friend.
She manage her own hosting site so she was able to fix my issue with no ease at no time! Anyway, i think i have to get back on sleep now. Tomorrow will be another stressing day specially now that we were scheduled to have a major general cleaning in our house. I hate doing house chores, to be honest! And i hate sweeping out the bath room floor tiles the most!
And since i will be attending a very important meeting with my client , i think that will be a great excuse! haha! And maybe that will be a great opportunity to convince mom to avail something like House Cleaning Vancouver WA Services! I have heard that this company is offering organic materials for your house which is so environmental friendly and is good to our health. I just wish we have that kind of service here.

How Much a Limo is?

2011-01-14T03:54:00.000-08:00

Do you have any idea how much a brand new limousine is? I went to search about limo online and i found out that you can avail buying a limo for the price ranging from the minimum amount of $165,000 or almost over 7 million pesos! And i repeat! That is just the minimum price, what's more with the higher and latest models? Buying Used Limo on the other hands will cut down the price into half as you can avail the car for as low as $32,ooo or almost 1,400,000 million peso! Obviously, a luxury car like this is not for everyone!
It might be impossible for us to buy an expensive limousine but it could be possible to rent them. There are rent-a-car companies like the Limo Portland Rental services in Oregon that allows you to rent such a stylish and elegant looking cars. this is very ideal especially if you are about to attend a very special social parties like wedding or other related events.
How about you? have you ever rent a limo? I wonder how great it would be if you're going to ride on such an expensive luxurious car.

Not Enough Space

2011-01-09T11:51:00.000-08:00

As you can see, my room is not that big. In fact, the size of it measures exactly for single bed. The space is not enough to accommodate more furniture inside. So funny but my dressing cabinet is in the other vacant room of hours. This is actually a twin rooms which only means that my sister who is in the next room is also facing the same condition.
The Orange is my room while the sky blue painted room belongs to me sister. As you can see, both room has the same size which makes us realized that it would be great to replace the bulky beds to a small yet stylish one.
I actually did some research online and i was able to find some cool and stylish Contemporary bedroom furniture.

What can you say about the style? It is indeed very stylish and modern. It is not so bulky too compare to the beds that we're using right now which makes it perfect for both me and my sister's room.
What yah think?

As the Breadwinner

2011-01-08T10:46:00.000-08:00

Ever since my dad stopped working, we started to experience some financial problems. Or maybe we already have financial difficulties before but i wasn't that aware since i am too young to understand such matters. Well, i cannot blame my dad for this because the situation is simply uncontrollable. He suffered from mild stroke which forced him to give up his work. In exchange, i am the one who took all the responsibilities and became the bread winner of the family. Good thing my father receives monthly disability benefits from both the Government and his previous employer. Being the eldest is really hard. You need to sacrifice a lot for your family. It's hard, Yes but i do not have any regrets. I am doing everything for them wholeheartedly. My parents help me a lot to become a strong person and i would love to bring that courtesy back by simply helping them as much as i can. Hopefully, this year will give me so much blessings. Right now, i am able to manage both of my school and work. I am earning quite good from my freelance web writing job and hopefully this year, i will receive more offers and opportunities especially now that i am planning to buy something for my self. I know it's kinda selfish but I guess sometimes i have to treat my self to motivate me and help me keep going. And if ever i got a chance, i will be joining some cash gifting programs to earn more this year. Well, wish me luck guys!

Royalty Experience

(Golden plated Coach)

(Limousine)

(Vintage Cars)

We absolutely had a chance to experience the royalty as we visited a car exhibit at Alabang. It was actually a one month Car expo, showcasing expensive limousines and vintage cars. If I am not mistaken there were 12 cars being showcased at the exhibit and my Auntie Thess and I were very lucky to be one of the invited guests in the expo. I wasn’t that so sure what was the exhibit all about but I know that Mr. Chung, a business man, owned all these expensive cars. I love the limousine and the classic Bugatti the most. Mr Chung is a very successful businessman and I am not wondering why he has the guts to buy such expensive and vintage cars like this. I wonder how expensive it was in managing such an expensive car like this. For sure it is very hard to find a spare part of it. Well, if ever I have this kind of car, I will immediately get an insurance for it. Well, we all know how expensive these cars are. Some of them can be more than expensive than a house or a condo unit! These cars must be very expensive but insurance are not. In fact, there are sites that give you a chance to compare auto insurance quotes online. Some give you chance to compare auto quotes usa leading insurance companies has. Applying for an insurance is definitely not a waste of time especially if you own such an expensive car like the cars I have shown above.

Bruno Mars in Manila?

2011-01-05T11:46:00.001-08:00

Finally, Bruno Mars will be hitting Manila this coming April. It is a dream come true for a fan like me to see him performing live! I will definitely not miss this very special event and will buy tickets as early as possible.
I'm not really into modern music, i prefer listening to old school but after i found out that our dear Bruno Mars is a half American Half Filipino, i started to listen to his song.
Bruno Mars has an amazing powerful vocals which is rare to find nowadays. He is known for collaborating with rapper Travis Mccoy from their hit song "Billionaire". Then he first made his solo album with the carrying single "Just the way you are" and now one of his latest songs, "Grenade".
I really enjoy listening to his hits and i can't stop my self downloading his songs to my music player. Most of his songs are also available for digital downloads most especially on iTunes. As we know, iTunes is not accessible in countries outside the US but if you have an iTunes Gift Card, you can access the site with no ease.
If you are interested about these iTunes Gift Card, you can visit http://www.zhljerry.com to get legitimate GC's online!

We should never be proud and so foolish to refuse advices. We should want to live an intelligent life.

Gift For my Dad

2010-12-20T05:01:00.000-08:00

I was with my sister Last Tuesday when we decided to stop by at the nearest Jewelry shop. We are actually looking for something to give for my dad. He will turn 41 next month and we want to make his birthday extra special by buying him a very special gift. We noticed that he’s been wearing his old watch for almost years now and I guess it is the right time to buy him a brand new watch.

I guess a Blancpain Men’s “Le Brassus” model watch will suit my dad well. He used to buy us gifts every time we celebrate our birthdays so this is the right time for me to bring the courtesy back to him. How about you guys, do you have any suggestion what gift will suit my dad well? Feel free to share your thoughts.

Better To Give than To Receive

2010-12-20T04:56:00.000-08:00

There is a saying that it is better to give than to receive! And it is very applicable especially this coming Christmas Day. Well, Christmas is more than just buying and exchanging gifts! We celebrate this very important occasion to pay tribute to the day when the Christ the child was born. But of course, receiving a gift from someone will definitely make you feel the true meaning of Christmas right. Well, we are just humans and we want something to make our Christmas special right. For sure, you have something on your mind, an item or something that you want to received from a special someone. How about a pearl necklace from your hubby? Or an Authentic Rolex watch from your wife. They might be material things but the fact that they thought of giving you a gift for this very special occasion is something very treasure-able. Actually, even the simplest greeting card will make you feel the same way! Happy holidays everyone!

Okay Pine!

2010-12-19T01:40:00.001-08:00

Philippines is a tropical country that’s why a tropical fruit like Pineapple is very common to find. Pineapple is eaten fresh and perfect for desserts, salads, and of cource Fruit Cocktails. It can also serve as a complement for meat dishes. Here in the Philippines, one of my mom’s specialty is a chicken dish called “Pininyahang Manok”. It is a Chicken dish cooked with pineapple juice and coconut milk. My mom even add some pineapple chunks into it.
However, for an acidic person like me, i should have control my self in eating too much pineapple as it’s known for having a high acid content which is quite harmful for me.
oh did i mentioned desserts a while ago? Have you tried Pineapple tarts? My Auntie is good in making tarts…oh my and now i’m craving for them! I better go and visit my Auntie and ask her to bake some tarts for me! Yum Yum

One day Care taker

(Ichan and Tita Thess)

I am still waiting for my cousin Ichan! I am currently here in their house to be his guardian for almost a week. Tita Thess will be gone for about a week and she asked me if I could take care of hi one and only son Ichan for awhile. Well, I just can’t refuse and I just can’t say no to my tita (Tita is a Filipino term for Auntie), so here I am now planning to stay here for a week. I am just so thankful that they have Internet here. You know me guys!! You know that I cannot live a day without peaking any of my blogs! Hahaha! That’s how passionate I am when it comes to blogging and I should be commended for it. Anyway, Ichan attended his school Christmas party and he’s not yet here until now. I texted him several times but received no response from him. He might be very busy. Well, I will definitely grab this opportunity to check some cool microgaming casinos online. In fact, I found one last night while I was surfing the net. The game is called mega moolah. It is a five reel slot machine game. The game has this jungle theme which makes it more attractive and more appealing to play. I just love slot machines as it requires no skills or techniques in order for you to win. However, you can still maximize your chances of winning by following certain strategy and effective jackpot guide! So long guys! It’s time to make some moolahs!

Fluffy Rice Cake

2010-12-11T07:48:00.000-08:00

I love Rice Cake or in Philppines, it is commonly called as “Puto.” Traditionally, this Filipino native delicasy is cooked by steaming method. Since Rice is an important staple food for Filipino people, Rice is the main ingredient in this dish.
Puto is usually eaten as a dessert, but can also be eaten for breakfast dipped into or paired with a cup of hot coffee or hot chocolate. It tastes mostly like rice but slightly sweeter.

Puto is very easy to cook. Just prepare 2 cups of rice soaked in water over night. Place the puree soaked rice inside a heavy duty blender until it becomes fine. There are ready made rice powder in the market too! Pour the fine blended rice in a bowl then add sugar and 2 tsp of baking powder. Just mix it well and set aside.
Beat egg whites until stiff. Add 2 tablespoons sugar to keep the air in the beaten egg whites. Fold the egg whites into the beaten rice batter and pour into muffin pans. Steam for about 20 minutes or until done.
Spread butter on the top of your steamed rice cake until it melts. You can serve this dish with grated coconut or with a filipino dish called “Dinuguan”( if you are familiar with it!

No More a Victim

2010-12-11T07:45:00.000-08:00

Have you ever been involved in a car accident? Have you once become a victim by those reckless drivers? Well, if you did, then we are definitely on the same boat, i remember last 2007, I was riding on the motorcycle with my Uncle when all of a sudden a car bumps out. We know that we are on the right lane and it’s the car owners fault. He is trying to overtake and he went on a wrong way. Thanks God, the injuries we got wasn’t that bad but it was just so upsetting to receive no apology from the car owner. I just wish we were able to hire a personal injury lawyer and help us to fight for our right. We are the victims and we deserve justice. The driver of the car deserves a lesson. But then it’s too late for us to sue that guy , hire a personal injury attorney and file a lawsuit against him. Well, Just let the karma punish him.

My Dream Car

2010-12-11T07:44:00.000-08:00

I’m really not into driving but if there’s one car that i would really like to drive, that would be a recreational vehicle or simply RV. The vehicle is equipped with living space and amenities that you commonly found in home. It’s like a moving house actually. You can even customize it based on your own preferences. You can set up your own theme and design it the way you want it to be. You can put some electronic appliances, furniture and more. You can also have a mini bathroom inside; place lavatory in your dining area and match it with a very stylish and elegant-looking RV Faucet. If the space is quite bigger, you can even place single bed on it! Over all, having an RV is such a dream come true to me!

My Kiss tastes like Orange

2010-12-10T08:59:00.000-08:00

My Kisses taste like Orange.

Your Kisses Taste Like Oranges

You are cool headed in all aspects of your life, including kissing. You don't rush into things.

You make sure to put others before yourself. You're an excellent kisser, and you don't kiss and tell.

You are always smiling. You're optimistic and cheerful, even when your kisses are rebuffed.

You and a raspberry kisser will experience true romantic bliss, but a peach kisser will be too much drama for your taste!
