Taking care of the finances

2011
09.12

If there is one thing that I want to take care of by next year, it is the state of the family’s finances. I am saving up. We are all saving up. We want to invest on real estate properties as well as some investment schemes that we are very much interested in due to positive feedback from family friends but we are only a bit familiar with.

I think I will talk to the Missoula, MT wealth management group about these plans that me and my family have in mind. We want to make sure that our finances are properly in place.

An online journal

E-Journal

My good friend Mika and I are convincing another good friend to start a blog of her own. An online journal where she can chronicle her daily activities. It will surely be fueled by funny experiences and anecdotes. That friend of ours is a funny girl! She is funny without her meaning to be one.

I think I’ve managed to convinced a lot of friends to try out blogging. My good friend Mika already has 3 blogs of different niches. She will be starting a new one on home improvements very soon. I am inspired by the enthusiasm she’s showing in her blogging life.

Blogging is already a way of life for majority of the bloggers I know, and that include yours truly. It is therapy for the battered soul and a diversion for the bored. Our good friend is always stressed at work and Mika and I want her to have a diversion, something to look forward to after a long day at work.

Training for new work

2011
09.03

Brian is training for his new job. He will be assigned to handle the machine for SMT Stencils. It is a new process for the new products the company will offer to the public and Brian is actually excited to be the first person to be handling the machine.

Brian is a banker but he shifted to another industry. He’s always more comfortable doing jobs using his hands and creativity. This is a good first job for him. He is thinking of using this as a stepping stone to a much better job as an artist in the future. And that will be five years from now.

Have I told you?

2011
09.03

… that I procrastinate a lot? I do! It is a bad habit that I wish to kick but it’s just so hard to do :(

So I’ve been asked to do this: List your favorite ways to procrastinate.

  1. I read other blogs. I find inspiration to write about. But I always end up using all the time I have for writing in reading other blogs.
  2. I read entertainment web sites. I go to pep.ph and omg! in Yahoo! :P
  3. I watch TV.

These are just the 3 most common ways of mine to procrastinate. Even if I know I have a deadline to meet, I still waste my time doing something else.

Raging storm

2011
08.31

If you experienced a raging storm like that of Ondoy, I am sure you will find having a steel storm shelter is the best option out there. We can’t do anything with a coming storm but prepare for it. Storms are acts of nature and out of our control. Best prepare for it than wait for it to happen before doing anything.

We are just lucky because our house is located at an elevated area so we are not prone to flooding. But not everyone has a place like ours. Whether you already have bad experience with storms or not, it is still best to prepare for it like it’s going to hit you anytime soon.

In other words, expect the worse. Better prepared for the worse than be complacent.

Water supply problem

2011
08.31

The condominium building where my cousin has a unit is having problems with water supply. My cousin comes over in the morning to use the bathroom at home. She told us that the building administration is doing something about it. My dad said that they just need to get WeGotPumps industrial pumps and it will help with getting a steady supply of water. If that does not help, then they need to call the water provider to have their pipes checked.

Water supply is very important. My cousin is now thinking of selling her unit and moving back home. The only thing stopping her from doing it is the traffic she has to tackle every day going to work.

Endangers than cures

2011
08.17

Instead of solving the problem of diabetes of Kyle, it endangered his life by giving him heart failure and increasing his risk to getting bladder cancer! There is really a need for him to file an Actos lawsuit as soon as possible! He cannot let this pass. A medicine for his diabetes, instead of curing him, endangered his life even more!

He will make sure that someone will pay for what happened to him. He will also make sure that nobody will be endangered like him anymore! If the medicine is causing so much damage in a patient’s body, more harm than good, then its distribution better be stopped!

Stay my heart..

2011

I know he misses me. He hasn’t realized it yet, but he does. His actions speak louder than his words. Hay…

Anyway, I watched a movie a while ago. And I somehow got jealous of those with someone. I have no problem being single. I enjoy it actually. But sometimes, when it is cold and lonely, you just want someone to hold your hand.

And it got me thinking of him again. I realized that no matter what, he’ll have this special place in my heart.

May he find true happiness. That wish is from the bottom of my heart.

Road to recovery

2011
08.17

Marco needs to recover from the accident he was in as soon as possible. He is needed at work. His neighbor accidentally threw a thick piece of log down the roof without looking if there’s a person who’d get hit. Luckily, Marco only suffered a broken arm. If not, Marco’s family shudders to think what would have happened if the log hit his head.

Marco is currently looking for an Austin personal injury lawyer who can help him settle his claims against his neighbor. The latter refuses to acknowledge his fault and Marco is not having any of that. He wants his neighbor to pay for the medical bills he incurred due to the latter’s fault.

Thank goodness Marco is now on the road to recovery. If not, he will also be asking his neighbor to compensate for the days he missed work!

Couples getting married

2011
08.13

Three couples in the area where I live are getting married before the year ends. It’s big news here in our place because it’s been years since someone got married. The couples will be tying the knot in successive weeks so we are all excited about the big events that will happen by then.

As a gift to the marrying couples, the local community leaders offered to give them triton wedding bands. It’s a gift from the community they’ve lived in since they were very young. Most of my neighbors have been here in the area since their grandparents were little kids. That includes our family. No wonder families here are valued just as if we founded this area.

Getting a dozen insurance plans

2011
08.12

Oh yes, there’s another errand I have to do for my Mom. We will be getting a dozen insurance plans for her part-time employees! Wholesale Insurance is what I will be looking into while I am also doing other things at home. I know how important an insurance plan is. I know that should something happen, there is always a Plan B on standby for each person in my Mom’s payroll. That is an important thing for her.

It’s errands weekend for me. I’m off to start ticking off one item after another on the list!

Happy weekend!

Stay at home this weekend

I have to stay at home this weekend. My friends are asking me to join them in a weekend getaway but since my mom asked me to stay, I had to decline their invitation. Mom asked me to help her with the water softener and we will also be doing some general cleaning. We are also going to do some grocery shopping since this Sunday we will be entertaining guests at home.

Maybe next weekend I can go on a getaway. But for now, it’s stay at home and helping the Mom.

The right path

2011
08.05

Pia is enrolling in a medical assistant school. She is on the right path to becoming a medical professional. She actually wanted to become a doctor but as her parents could not afford it, she opted to enroll in a medical assistant school. Anyway, later on when she already has enough money, she can continue studying to become a doctor.

Truth is, that’s what Pia has in mind. Medical assistant for now, a medical doctor in the near future. She is hoping to finish school as soon as possible to start working to save up for medical school for doctors.

Guest room

2011
08.03

Janis is setting up her two-bedroom condo unit. One bedroom will be hers and the other will become a guest room. She always has someone over, a cousin or a friend or an older relative, so she thought she might as well make use of the spare room for just that purpose. She is ordering bunk beds free shipping. Two bunk beds will fit into that guest room and since she knows that three cousins will be staying with her for a spell, she is happy she found a good deal online. Imagine… free shipping! That saved her a good amount of cash.

She is expecting her cousins’ arrival this coming weekend. And she is working hard to get her condo in place by Friday, day before her cousins will arrive.

Graduating this October

2011
07.16

Cousin Ana will be graduating this October. She was not able to graduate last March due to incomplete requirements for one of her subjects. It’s unusual for a high school student like her to be graduating in October but her school is different from others. She is not the only one graduating in college but also a few others who, like her, also lacked some requirements their teachers asked of them. Ana was actually sad that she wasn’t able to graduate last March. Good thing there’s the high school grad presents that she can look forward to. Her parents and her uncles and aunts promised her a grad party and lots of presents from each of them.

Study of beauty

2011
06.30

I know someone who is very much interested in getting into Regency Beauty Institute, a Chattanooga beauty school. She knows the quality of education from the said school wherein their campus mirrors that of an upscale salon. Graduates from the said school actually have an edge over others because when they go out of the school, they are already well-trained to do the work they’re supposed to do.

Students from the Regency Beauty Institute give discounted salon services. These are high-quality salon services that are done under the supervision of the expert faculty. Imagine what an edge Regency students gave over others!

You are perfect to me.

2011
06.29

I really, really love Perfect by Pink! It’s so heartwarming and a perfect song for women who are feeling down and insecure. I am feeling a little bit of the latter so I thought why not share the lyrics of the song here?

Here goes…

Made a wrong turn, once or twice
Dug my way out, blood and fire
Bad decisions, that’s alright
Welcome to my silly life
Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood
Miss ‘No way, it’s all good’, it didn’t slow me down
Mistaken, always second guessing, underestimated
Look, I’m still around

Pretty pretty please, don’t you ever ever feel
Like you’re less than f*ckin’ perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you’re nothing
You’re f*ckin’ perfect to me!

You’re so mean, when you talk about yourself, you were wrong
Change the voices in your head, make them like you instead
So complicated, look happy, you’ll make it!
Filled with so much hatred… such a tired game
It’s enough! I’ve done all I can think of
Chased down all my demons, I’ve seen you do the same

Oh, pretty pretty please, don’t you ever ever feel
Pink Perfect lyrics found on http://www.lyricsty.com/pink-perfect-lyrics.html
Like you’re less than f*ckin’ perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you’re nothing

You’re f*ckin’ perfect to me

The whole world’s scared so I swallow the fear
The only thing I should be drinking is an ice cold beer
So cool in line, and we try try try, but we try too hard and it’s a waste of my time
Done looking for the critics, cause they’re everywhere
They don’t like my jeans, they don’t get my hair
Exchange ourselves, and we do it all the time
Why do we do that? Why do I do that?

Why do I do that… ?

Yeah, oh, oh baby, pretty baby… !

Pretty pretty please, don’t you ever ever feel
Like you’re less than f*ckin’ perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel
Like you’re nothing, you’re f*cking perfect to me
You’re perfect, you’re perfect!
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you’re nothing
You’re f*ckin’ perfect to me…

Love it!

Don’t you?

Send abroad

My friend was corresponding with me regarding some documents that she and her kids needed to process the latter’s residence visa abroad. Since we were going back and forth to complete the documents they need, I told my friend to check out the Royal Imaging document scanning services and use it. She did and just recently, we finished everything before she came here to fetch her kids.

Two are already with my friend and her husband abroad. Two more will follow suit. I am helping my friend out so that very soon she and her whole family will be living together finally!

Wet surroundings

2011
06.24

It’s a very wet weekend wherever you go in the country. The rain won’t let up and it’s still pouring down harder than ever! The sky is gloomy and even the reflections off the steel buildings can’t give the surroundings a better look.

I do wish the weather will improve today. I am not sure if it will but I am hoping. I don’t like this kind of weather simply because it causes floods everywhere! I may be safe, warm and dry at home but what about those families who needed to evacuate the safety of their homes to avoid being submerged in flood waters?

Work is coming in sporadically. I must admit that I am getting scared but I also remind myself that I need to keep my faith that there will be more coming in.

I will just to hold on tightly, budget my funds accordingly, and I just know everything will fall into place sooner than later. Time for some truly positive thinking…

Happy Friday!

My cousin just loves to post stuff like this in Facebook. I think these stuff comes from a tumblr account of hers. I thought I’d post one here for all of you to see…

It’s a funny interpretation of a 3-way love affair. Wherein two people are in love with each other while someone else is suffering in a corner. Love! It’s not all as it seems. There is always someone who ends up getting hurt.

Jaded am I? A bit I admit. But let’s face the truth, I am also right am I?

A normal life

Craniosynostosis. I have only just heard of it but what I do know is that someone I personally know has suffered from it when she was very young. The wonders of Science gave her a semblance of an ordinary normal life. If not for that, she’s long gone.

Had it happen today, her parents would have surely filed a Zoloft Lawsuit against the medical product company that gave her that defect. Her parents would have battled the company and will surely ask the help of a legal expert from the O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath – Personal Injury Lawyers – 808 West Avenue, Austin, TX. 78701 – 512-494-9949.

That’s for sure!

Diary

I bought a new diary again. Hehe! I just felt like buying and this one caught my attention. The cover is soft and the pages inside look great! Paper’s thick and I can already see myself writing down stuff in it.

Or I just might keep this for a while and not write anything in it yet.

Painful to see

2011
06.24

A Topamax Lawsuit was filed against the medicine company because of a birth defect that a child suffered due to the intake of the medicine itself. The child’s parents contacted the O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath law office and they are experts in handling cases involving Topamax.

It is painful to see one’s child suffering. Can you imagine how literally painful it is for the child with a cleft palate? I’ve seen one personally and it isn’t a sight for the weak. It is heart-wrenching and nobody wants that for his/her child. Can you blame the parents for suing? I don’t think so!

Flowers for a friend

2011

Patty is not feeling well. Her friends know about it so they are going to order flowers for her. Flowers cheer her up! Most especially a bunch of colorful flowers. It’s also something that she makes sure her house always has.

Maddie, one of Patty’s friends, is the one ordering the flowers for the group. She will send it to Patty’s house and after office hours, Maddie and the rest of their friends will troop to Patty’s house with food and some entertainment. They want to make sure Patty’s already fine when they go home after.
