Our present technology makes everything accessible to anyone with a simple mouse click via the information superhighway. Anyone can now retrieve all the information they need without leaving the bedroom regardless of how young they are. The big question is; what are we going to do with all this freedom? The internet is basically a whole universe in itself; a universe of free flowing what’s what. It is so vast, anyone can get lost in the junk and the treasure it offers. It has enriched peoples’ lives and has caused destruction to some.  Today, I would like to focus on how the internet can save lives instead of destroy. I found a site that allows people to read the Bible online. Since my Bible is huge because it’s the Student Bible so it’s very comprehensive; I couldn’t be happier with it. My Bible is too heavy for me to carry around and that is the reason why I can’t always carry it anywhere I go. I do have a tiny one but it only has the New Testament and it’s just not the same. With the online Bible, I can read the scriptures while I’m finishing some work on the internet.

I couldn’t help but agree with Bill Crystal’s character in the movie, When Harry me Sally when he said, “when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible”.

We’ve carried, arranged, dismantled and replaced just to put everything into place. However there are certain issues that we would need to address, especially when it comes to durability and stability.

Sometimes it would take a lot of hours or even days of finding the right stands and mounts for your housing requirements. I had a problem particularly with a plasma mount as well as for LCD monitors. You also need to be very careful in picking out the proper support for your appliances as you don’t want to damage your precious investments.

If you want to place things in order, you better go and visit standsandmounts.com. They offer an immense number of products that go well with your home’s interior design so you won’t have to bother looking for that perfect match for your setting. It may seem great for those who are living alone, but I tell you, it get’s better once you are able to set up your own house! But don’t get me wrong, their products can also cover other aspects like office and other establishments. You can save more since this is less cost of those in stores.

When I visited their site, they have this cool offer which is a $10 off for a price-match guarantee! Definitely this isn’t the only promotions that they’re going to offer. Better visit and find what you need which is already what you’ll want for your shelter needs!

I lost my credit card!!!! Was in Starbucks Ayala earlier then was looking for a new phone (the one I bought last friday I sold to Ching, don’t like it anymore), now when my feet grew tired with all the walking and my arms numb with the paper bag am bringing, I went to Citibank to pay (Mitchy commented once why I pay them more than twice in a month) ’twas then I realized that I don’t have my card with me, I have my wallet which contains my money but I lost my card holder. Good thing I had my atm card for my pay and my two savings atm card in another wallet I left at home. So it’s my credit card, and my two debit cards. Grrrr … in the States they have this product called Walletlock from Lifelock wherein clients who are suffering from lost or stolen wallets can just make one single phone call to a Lifelock specialist who would do all the phone calls in having all the cards and other documents canceled and replaced. Ain’t that nice? With my case I had to call three banks, repeat the details three times which was draining and I dunno time consuming. So now I have to wait 7 to 10 working days for them to deliver my new cards. Comparing the , they seem to be running a variety of subscription, dunno if such a company exist in my location and I don’t think they are running this service worldwide. It’d be added security I think and a hassle saver. *sigh* We ought to have Lifelock Promo Codes available here in our country and offers ought to be sent via email. I’ve read so much Lifelock Review online and all of them were pretty much positive and that entices me more wishing its available here.

Alright, so I still have 6 days to look for a suitable dress, I’ll be a godmother in 6 days time and for the ceremony all of us (ladies I mean) are asked to wear a dress. Now where on earth am I gonna look for a dress? I’ve scanned my dresser already and all thats there are shirts and jeans … grrr … plus I don’t like dresses, feel stupid in them …

So am on leave till tomorrow and I think I’ll just have to spend the whole day from one mall to the other looking for a dress!!!!!!

If only not for the baby … *sigh*

Anyways … I’ll just pray I’ll look good on whatever it is I might find.

When mom was alive I’ve always wanted to get air cleaners, I want the air around her as clean and as purified as possible. She was already on oxygen to sustain her breathing and she needs the cleanest air possible. Scoured the malls in my area for any device that might suit our need but unfortunately its either they’re too costly for me or there wasn’t the perfect size, given that our house is not that big.

Now that she’s gone though I’d still want one for myself given the fact that am asthmatic but so far this aint the top of my priority and getting this one would be a constant reminder of her and what I didn’t get to give her during her stay in this world.

Am basically on leave today, or I mean starting yesterday until Tuesday night. Am going back to work on Wednesday night and though the turn of events have been pretty disappointing but am glad I got this leave to work on the site. The many updates that needs to be installed.

This blog hasn’t been updated as frequently as it used to but hopefully I’d get a few things done.

One of the things I fancy is old and rare coins. I remember when I was a kid; I saw some really old coins inside my mother’s drawer. At that age I didn’t think those were of value so I took one and played with it. When this neighbor saw it, she offered to exchange it all with the candies I wanted and of course I agreed. If I were old enough to realize at that time that out neighbor was a coin dealer, maybe I would’ve demanded more candy but I didn’t.

Coins come in different shapes, sizes, age and composition so its value is not all the same. Each piece holds a story; could be that of romance, mystery or who knows what else. I am an enthusiast but not an expert in collecting coins, that is why I’m trying to learn everything a dealer or a collector must know about this subject. It’s a good thing that much has been written about how to start this hobby, be it on hardcopy or online. I certainly would want to be updated on how to find the best buys and where to get the best value for my assets.

I watched Planet Terror yesterday just out of curiosity and I was disappointed to the bones. I swear, if somebody makes another movie that evolves around the plot of some virus infecting people and turning them into sickeningly ugly creatures that feed on the uninfected; I’m going to throw up. The only consolation is Rose McGowen’s bed scene if you like that kind of stuff.

Will you count me in?

I’ve been awake for a while now.
You’ve got me feeling like a child now.
‘Cause every time I see your bubbly face,
I get the tingles in a silly place.

It starts in my toes,
And I crinkle my nose.
Wherever it goes I’ll always know,
That you make me smile.
Please stay for a while now.
Just take your time,
Wherever you go.

The rain is falling on my window pane,
But we are hiding in a safer place.
Under covers staying dry and warm.
You give me feelings that I adore.

They start in my toes,
Make me crinkle my nose.
Wherever it goes I’ll always know,
That you make me smile.
Please stay for a while now.
Just take your time,
Wherever you go.

What am I gonna say,
When you make me feel this way?
I just…mmm.

And it starts in my toes,
Makes me crinkle my nose.
Wherever it goes I’ll always know,
That you make me smile.
Please stay for a while now.
Just take your time,
Wherever you go.

Da-Da-Dum-da-da-da-da-da.

I’ve been asleep for a while now.
You tucked me in just like a child now.
‘Cause every time you hold me in your arms,
I’m comfortable enough to feel your warmth.

It starts in my soul,
And I lose all control.
When you kiss my nose,
The feeling shows.
‘Cause you make me smile.
Baby just take your time now,
Holding me tight.

Wherever, wherever, wherever you go.
Wherever, wherever, wherever you go.
Wherever you go,
Always know,
‘Cause you make me smile even just for a while.

You don’t even have to leave your house, just pick up your phone or order online.

My friends and I always wanted to start working out but we have never really put the whole plan into action. Right now I’m looking for something that lets me work out with all the  benefits of going to the gym without actually leaving my house. Everytime I see weight benches at the gym, it makes me want to purchase one for myself. Because there are several types to choose from within a reasonable price range, everyone can now work out in their very own gym at home.

Some people say, “it’s just a simple cold” but I don’t. I hate it when my nose is all clogged up and I can’t breathe. I don’t like the feeling of not being able to breathe. Sigh, I’m home but I doubt if I can even sleep. It’s a good thing I have my huge tumbler beside me so I can drink all the liquid I need.

When you buy a new car to replace your old one, how do you dispose the old one? I mean do you sell it, give it to your relatives or do you donate it? Should you choose the latter, there’s a ministry specializing in car donation wherein the donor can choose the charity organization you want to benefit from the donation. They also offer free vehicle pick-up and it doesn’t matter if your vehicle is running or not. Amongst the charity they cater to, to benefit from your donation are single mothers, orphans, homeless, teen and adult rehab as well as prison reform.

So if you’re thinking along those lines of donating your car, then might as well check them out, they’re honest and integrous and they handle the title work and repair negotiations.

Car Angel, the company specializing in car donation, is a non-profit organization and uses the donations for kids and teens, provide these kids and teenagers with videos and as to date they have given away 2.4 million videos. A sample of this video can be found here: http://youtube.com/user/boatangel; check it out.

Have been terribly busy lately that am not able to update this blog as often as I used to even the blogging platform were using is already outdated. *sigh* Now we’re back to basics, with the theme I mean, I want it clean and simple and hopefully with the many leaves I have I’ll have the time to work on this blog … it looks so dead to me.

In the US and Canada most if not all of the houses there have heaters in preparation for the Winter when snow comes in. Most of the old fashioned houses and families must still be using the traditional heaters with huge tanks stationed somewhere. Why replace your old heaters with these tankless ones? Simple, first these tankless water heater you would have endless supply of hot water unlike the traditional ones where in once the supply of hot water is consumed it’d take ample time to wait for the next supply of water to be heated. Second, you get to conserve energy given that with these tankless heater only takes energy when you need hot water unlike the traditional ones which has to operate 24 hours a day 365 days a week.

It has a bunch others advantages but those two are like the most primary ones, so go ahead switch to these new innovation.

Its the 7th of the month and pay is on the 15th …grrr …. though I just got my bonus
which was cool by the way but it ain’t enough to buy me the pink pair of chucks and
skateboards I want. Heheehehe … (the bratilda speaking!).
Some people do have trouble making both ends meet, can’t blame them. At least
their reasons are more real compared to my whims and caprices. Do know of a few
no not a few but quite a lot of people inside and outside of my workplace that
experiences problems making both ends meet. (The 15th and the 30th).
Sucks to be one they’re gonna turn to for help, good thing there’s this payday loans quotes.
A quick and easy way to bridge cash need between pay days without the need for a credit check.
Payday Cash Loans can range from like a hundred to a thousand dollars and are pretty much approved quickly as soon as you
submit the requirement your application will be passed on to pay day lenders who will then evaluate your application.
Applications can be done online without the hassle of waiting for your turns in lending offices, can be done anonymously in the comforts of your home
with a few mouse clicks. As long as your requirements are complete approval would be fast enough within the day of application usually, but there are times when the lender might request a few other documentation and that would cause a bit of a daily.

With technology almost everything is just a matter of a few clicks, accessing bank accounts, shopping, food order, work, school. Almost everything can be accessed through online, good thing these pay lenders such as Payday Loan Quotes exists making financial matters a bit easy to deal with till the next payday.

Setting up an internet cafe is one of my plans ever since I started getting hooked online, lets face it not all of us can afford a pc and get it hooked online. Now with establishing our very own internet cafe (Wafa and I with the help of bukie) we need knowledge on how routers work (am sure D can help us out on that) and on how many units we’re gonna put up, maybe just around 10 or 15 as we are starting and we might need CAT6 Patch Panels and Cables Shielded, or Keystone Jacks in the process of connecting all computers together to the network. She mentioned we might to hire a system administrator with the task at hand she said both of us are just plain stupid with computers. *sigh* So much for business planning.

Kiev Russia, the women from this place is known for their beauty coupled with intelligence and are very cosmopolitan and open-minded. Ran into many dating sites online and seems to me that many men from all over the world seem to have a high preference or high regard with women from Kiev. As there are women from these area who are open-minded enough to engage in online dating a site such as Kiev dating service exist to make both worlds meet halfway. An American guy meets a stunning Russian gal, ain’t that fantastic? The blending of culture, the interchange of ideas is just amazing, so for those men who are fascinated with these elegant women, its a must that you visit the Kiev dating site not only to meet these gorgeous gals and hopefully fall in love with one but also to get a glimpse of the city’s history and to get tips on how to date these women. You know how it is, the first meeting knowing of the difference in culture could a bit of awkward, but then again so long as you can carry on a conversation as am sure she’ll be able to do so too then there shouldn’t be any problem. I think a romantic dinner by any of the restaurants the city boasts of would be superb.

Casino games have long been in the hot stuff list. It is not a great wonder that it has invaded the internet as well. Virtual casino is a favorite of many home buddies for the reason that they don’t have to go out and dress up; they can take advantage of the joys offered on internet casino gambling online right in the comfort of their couch.

 

Falling In LoveFrom the book “Letters to my Son”by Kent Nerburn It is a mystery why we fall in love. It is a mystery how it happens. It is a mystery when it comes. It is a mystery why some love grows and it is a mystery why some love fails. You can analyze this mystery and look for reasons and causes, but you will never do anymore than take the life out of the experience. Just as life itself is more than the sum of the bones and muscles and electrical impulses in the body, love is more than the sum of the interests and attractions and commonalties that two people share. And just as life itself is a gift that comes and goes in its own time, so too, the coming of love must be taken as an unfathomable gift that cannot be questioned in its ways. Sometimes, hopefully at least once in your life - the gift of love will come to you in full flower, and you will take hold of it and celebrate it in all inexpressible beauty. This is the dream we all share. More often, it will come and take hold of you, celebrate you for a brief moment, then move on. When this happens to young people, they too often try to grasp the love and hold it to them, refusing to see that it is a gift that is freely given and a gift that just as freely, moves away. When they fall out of love, or the person they love feels the spirit of love leaving, they try desperately to reclaim the love that is lost rather than accepting the gift for what it was, then moving on. They want answers where there are no answers. They want to know what is wrong in them that make the other person no longer love them, or they try to get their lover to change, thinking that if some small things were different, love would bloom again. They blame their circumstances and say that if they go far away and start a new life together, their love will grow. They try anything to give meaning to what has happened. But there is no meaning beyond the love itself, and until they accept its own mysterious ways, they live in a sea of misery. You need to know this about love, and to accept it. You need to treat what it brings you with kindness. If you find yourself in love with someone who does not love you, be gentle with yourself. There is nothing wrong with you. Love just didn’t choose to rest in the other person’s heart. If you find someone else in love with you and you don’t love him, feel honored that love came and called at your door, but gently refuse the gift you cannot return. Do not take advantage; do not cause pain. How you deal with love is how you deal with you, and all our hearts feel the same pains and joys, even if our lives and ways are different. If you fall in love with another, and he falls in love with you, and then love chooses to leave, do not try to reclaim it or to assess blame. Let it go. There is a reason and there is a meaning. You will know in time. Remember that you don’t choose love. Love chooses you. All you can really do is accept it for all its mystery when it comes into your life. Feel the way it fills you to overflowing, then reach out and give it away. Give it back to the person who brought it alive in you. Give it to others who deem it poor in spirit. Give it to the world around you in anyway you can. There is where many lovers go wrong. Having been so long without love, they understand love only as a need. They see their hearts as empty places that will be filled by love, and they begin to look at love as something that flows to them rather than from them. The first blush of new love is filled to overflowing, but as their love cools, they revert to seeing their love as a need. They cease to be someone who generates love and instead become someone who seeks love. They forget that the secret of love is that it is a gift, and that it can be made to grow only by giving it away. Remember this, and keep it to your heart. Love has its own time, its own seasons, and its own reason for coming and going. You cannot bribe it or coerce it, or reason it into staying. You can only embrace it when it arrives and give it away when it comes to you. But if it chooses to leave from your heart or from the heart of your lover, there is nothing you can do and there is nothing you should do. Love always has been and always will be a mystery. Be glad that it came to live for a moment in your life. IF YOU KEEP YOUR HEART OPEN IT WILL COME AGAIN.

 

I saw this episode on Oprah where they gave some home a much deserve make-over. One make-over really struck me; it was the backyard turned into cool kitchen. Inspired with that, I searched on other lovely home ideas. Turns out there are more and more home owners embracing the outdoor kitchen idea. Good thing there is directbuy that makes the process less painful and more convenient.

 

Yahoo! I already have my outfit for tomorrow..Wondering what the outfir is for?? well wonder away coz I can’t tell you just yet hehehe

When I’m not blogging, I usually am looking for cool sites that offer a whole lot of games and bonuses. My recent bag is playing internet casino gambling online so when I chanced upon a virtual casino, I stayed. I love how easy to navigate the site is and the assortment of games to choose from. Casino games are perfect for people who value their time even when they play.

It’s a monday and I have work later tonight hehe nothing to do since we already went shopping yesterday so dada and I are just movie hopping (tama ba na) hehehe from Resident Evil 1-3, Pirates of the Carribean 1-3, American Gangster and Rush Hour 1-3 hehehe

I got drowned when I was 5 years old, to the point where I turned blue and they have to apply mouth to mouth resuscitation to revive me. This is the reason why am scared of the sea or any major bodies of water and of swimming in general, that’s why up till now I never learned how to swim. Don’t get me wrong but I love the beach, the view and all especially the sunset and sunrise, I love taking photos of the views here and there with or without me, but it’s the thought of swimming, of drowning that scares the hell outta me. When I was with Vic in Bantayan, he knew am scared of the waters but still we went island hopping … now … I still feel like am floating, guess this is what people call sea sickness … the four of us (Diva, Penni, Vince and Moi) still feels that way as if we’re still on the boat in the middle of the sea with the big waves crashing … hanging on to dear life. I’ve never been that scared my entire life, the transfer to the second boat was already a tremendous thing for me, I knew I was scared with the act because I did something I don’t normally do … and that’s bit on the edges of my thumb. We were s’pose to go island hopping, but due to who knows what, the pump belt (dunno what that is) got ripped/broken that we were literally floating in the middle of the sea … stranded … no panic whatsoever as everyone was having fun and there were  still food and drinks in the boat. When the rescue came after a good deal of waiting (the second boat) arrived we have to transfer, I had to summon the nerve to “climb” to the next boat, grasp one of the proffered hands and settle safely on to the second boat.  What was my reason for joining this island hopping when I don’t know how to swim, when I’ve promised myself that I won’t ever ever drink alcohol again, when I’ve just been to the beach and has grown terribly dark …. Simple … the people, my team or should I say my previous team, I fell in love with the team, and am sure gonna miss it, but just as my team lead said, I’ll always be his agent … he’s definitely one of the reasons why am staying. Now I sidetracked, when we transferred to the second boat I thought we’ll be visiting at least one of the many islands around us but I was disappointed, never did we land on an island and all I saw was the sea, the waves, and other boats. Since I don’t know how to swim I was amongst the people who stayed in the boat, photo sessions were rampant here and there, talk, talk and all talk were scattered from one small group to another.  At one point I was talking to Eds and then tried to get some sleep, next I was off to talk to Mitchy … then later on the narcissistic in me took over and I was busy taking pictures with my cam. When we started to head home the sea was okay but when the moon takes over that’s when the waves started getting bigger and the sea was not as calm as before. Everytime a big wave comes up, the people sitting at the front got wet and I was one of ‘em … I didn’t intend to get wet but there I was, wet and shivering and scared. When those waves crashed in, and you can hear shrieks and curses from all side there was only one thing on my mind; “Ma, mag-uban na jud ta ani” …. It was a possibility I willingly accepted, after all it wouldn’t be so bad, miserable as I am now, what could be worst? Penni was starting the headcount to make sure no one’s missing, people were cursing and others must have been crying, I hugged Mitchy and like a lil child said, “Mitchy, am scared”; it took her a couple of seconds to finally respond, “don’t be” … I know she was scared to some degree but she summon the nerve to reassure me that things are gonna be okay. Am not sure what effect it has on me but when D said he felt genuine fear, I was struck …  When we knew we were “officially safe” and was about to dock at the back of Hilton hotel my next problem was crossing to the other side. I mean it was dark, and one misstep could mean falling down to the sea, not to mention it was slippery. Was able to cross successfully but darn I hate the feeling, tears of relief did fall down …. The next thing I had to think of would be our shift at 9PM, it was close to 8PM already and this would be our first time to go “Live Via Satellite w/ No Commercial Break” for TR … Diva, Moi and Penni resolved that no matter what happens we’ll never go absent (though the thought crossed my mind millions of times); went home to shower and change clothes then head straight back to work … and begin one working shift without any sleep.

It sounds cliché but a diamond is a girl’s bestfriend indeed. People come and go but a diamond stays and won’t leave. This makes it an ideal present for anyone. Choose from the wide array of the latest diamond pendants, rings and more collection. Not like the medieval times, today a girl no longer have to be a princess to own one.
