For Vanity Sake

Who does not want to look beautiful and young all their life? Vanity is inevitable in people’s life. All of us, irregardless of gender, social status and faith are all looking forward for a more beautiful us. Being vain now a day is easy, if you wish to enhance something you can easily have it done. Consultations with cosmetic surgeons are accessible. It is too accessible that you can consult with the best Washington DC Plastic Surgeon with just a click of the mouse or just pick up the phone and dial their number. How convenient it is. Feel free to ask about any enhancement that you want to undergo like breast augmentation, facial enhancements, botox and more. Now we can say that satisfying one’s vanity has never been this easy.

MJ's final bow

Michael Jackson is dead, it was the news that reached my ears as soon as I went out of the bathroom last June 25. At first, I hardly believe my Granny's story because I know that he have an upcoming series of concerts and his life was full of intrigues and controversies and I thought this one was just one of those. But a sms and the TV news confirmed it, he's gone. I was not that huge MJ fan, but I sing some of his songs and I admire his music prowess. Definitely the International Music Scene has lost a gem, but his music and his legacy will remain. Goodbye Mr. Jackson, may you rest in eternal peace!

My Birthday Post

It was my birthday last Saturday! (Happy Birthday to me!) It was so far the quietest birthday that I had. I actually celebrated it in the hospital because I have to look after my grandmother who broke her right hip ball extending to her femur last Monday. But anyways it was still a Happy Birthday for me.

Greetings flooded my phone and my FS and FB accounts. My friend Arjay was the first one to greet me on the day of my birthday. As soon as the clock hits twelve midnight I got his message, thanks friend. A former office mate called me. I was surprised he still remembers my birthday! My blogger friend Rose has something posted in her blog for my birthday. Thanks sis for the post, I really appreciate it! I am grateful for all the heartfelt greetings that came from all the people that touched my life. It was more than enough to make my birthday a quiet but memorable one.

Another year has added to my age. I wish that the good Lord would continue to bless me, my family and friends. I am aging I can now feel it, but I love every minute of my life because I have a loving family, heaven-sent friends and supportive officemates. They are more than enough to make my life happy and meaningful.

Why I was out for a while

My blogger friends are worried about my absence in the blogging scene for the past weeks. I am sorry for making them worry. Thank you so much friends for your concerns. I was just very busy in fixing things connected to my work. I have to finish the entire pending task before I leave at the end of the month. After more than three years, I decided to leave my work for a much better opportunity overseas. I would not yet reveal the details about it, since I am still fixing the visa, papers and others. But I would tell you the whole story soon. As for now, I am back again in the scene. I hope to do more post. I would to thank all my friends and readers who still drop by my page even if I have not updated it. I promise to tell you more stories, share you more of my dreams. I missed you all.

Pressured

Today is supposed to be my rest day. I should not be going to the office but because of the deadline for tax payments I have to spare my rest day and be a slave again of my reports. I never imagine that I could finish the reports to think that I am functioning as two staff since Criz left. She resigned from work to review for her licensure exams. So I’m doing multi tasking for almost a week now. I don’t complain about the work load, but spare me the pressure. I know my deadlines, but the pressure coming from my loving boss is definitely not helping me to become more efficient. But I am just an ordinary employee, so I have no choice but to deal with it! To hell with it! I am not a magician, nor wonder woman! How I wish that I could freeze the time. And now I just receive a message from my cousin, he is asking me to look for Blackhawk Holsters that he needs for his new "baby".

Pau's Random Thoughts

As I was making this post there are a lot of things that race inside my head. Would Ate Del and I meet the deadline on Monday to think that we only have two days left to finish the reports that normally takes us a couple of weeks to complete. What the hell is the reason behind the decision of absorbing the guard? First time in the company’s history that a guard under agency is absorbed by the company just to prevent a guard from resigning! What if Ate Del and I would boycott the reports? Would I survive the floods and hurricanes there? I wonder where I could get links of the talk of the town Hayden-Katrina brouhaha! Am I really prepared for this? Am I ready to leave my family and my friends? Am I sure that this would help me to move on? I wonder if Kathy is ok now! What would be the nice color for the luggage? Too many thoughts, too many to think about.

Romantic Destination Weddings

If I would to list the romantic places in the world, I am pretty sure that the beach would be on the top of the list. The clear blue waters that touch the fine white sand with the sunset as the backdrop would definitely take the breath away of hopeless romantics. No wonder Karisma Hotel and Resort in the Maya Riviera is the best for weddings. Their five signature resorts promise a romantic wedding ambiance. Couples can tie the knot on the beach front bare foot or they could have a much formal wedding ceremony on the gazebos of the resorts. Which ever they choose one thing is for sure, it would be very romantic. It is also great for destination weddings since they include wedding planning and coordination in their wedding packages. Very hassle free for non-local couples because the resort has very well experienced and best wedding and events planner. The couples and their guest are assured to experience great food and hospitality of the Maya Riviera.

The New Boys in my life!

Finally I'm hooked! Yes Indeed, the new drama series Boys over Flowers captured my attention. It is dubbed and currently being aired on a local channel.

Gold in Investment

Just this afternoon, I was waiting for our warehouse clerk; I have some clarifications and inquiries to make regarding the movement of one of our products. While waiting for her (she is busy with the documentations for the delivery), I was looking at the stacks of Tin Ingot in the warehouse. I was thinking, what if those ingots are turned in to gold ingots? It was such a nice view since the tin Ingots looked like silver ingots, but I bet it would be better if those were Gold. Gold has been a standard in determining wealth and purchasing power. It was even used as money in early times. Gold is a very good investment. If given a chance I would invest in gold bullion because it would never loose its value, in fact it appreciates rather than it depreciates. I pray that I may win the jackpot for the lottery on Thursday! The jackpot price could mean too many Gold Bullion investments. Truly men would never loose interest in Gold in fact it is very influential in the life of people even before the ancient times. So what are we waiting for, let us consider investing on gold bullions.

Interesting Blog from Amy

When I was still new in the blogging world, I still have some reservations in my mind if ever I could survive it. I am afraid that my post would not even be interesting for some readers. I was afraid that I might not get something out of it. And now after being in the so called Blogging World for more than a year, I think I have proven to myself that there is still something interesting in what is inside my head. And I have gained friends that never forget to tell me that my works are appreciated.

Thank you so much Amy for tagging me with this. Thank you for finding my blog interesting. I really appreciate it. Mwah!

Now I am passing this to all my friends! Love you all!

Investment Yields

I am handling our company’s Short Term Investments. Last Friday I got a call from one of the banks where we have a time deposit. The manager informed me of the maturity of the time deposit and asked me whether we would roll over the investment like we usually do. When I asked about the rate she told me the bad news, the rate went down one fourth of a percent from the previous rate. I was a bit upset but I understand that it is the trend that they are following. Good thing I find a site that helps me find the best bank rates so I was able to bargain for the rate. I got information regarding the prevailing Bank CD Rates so I was able to get a great deal for our bank. Hmm that is what I call good banking :)

Stubborness in me

I was confined in my bed during the weekend I was inflicted with on and off fever again for the nth time. I wonder what’s wrong with me. Good thing we had our annual medical check-up last Friday. Now I’m just waiting for the results of my Laboratory test so I would know if there’s something wrong with me. I haven’t touched the computer or the laptop, I just asked my nephew to take care of my crops in Farm Town and my pet Dame in Pet Society. I also asked him to check my email because I’m waiting for an important one. I am a very tolerant to pain. Although my threshold for pain is high, even if I’m feeling something painful in my body, I seldom go to the doctor. I’m finding relief within my means. I know it is not good, but I grew up with that thinking. I know that there are things that I cannot go through alone and I need help from others. I know there are things that I should not keep to myself and bear the pain alone and pretend that everything is fine.

Better VoIP System

It’s difficult to be apart with family. Until now my Kuya Greg would still sometimes cry like a baby when he misses the family. Good thing that technology has bridged the physical gaps between families in the world. With the help of new technologies like the emails, real time chat and VoIP, they seems to be near yet so far. But these technologies are not just for family that misses their family member. It is also a great tool for doing business. And the number one in the VOIP Phone Systems is Xpander Communications. Just recently they launched a new VoIP soft ware that is an improved version of what they have previously launched. It was built in the goal of satisfying the customers’ needs. It would save money and time for the companies as well as it provide better mobility and availability. As they say, it is not just a phone system but it is indeed a very useful tool that will help the business.

Mother's Day Token

Since It was Mother's Day, my mom and my grandmom requested me to make some banana crumb muffins. I thought it would be nice if I would give them as token to the special moms in my life. I gave each to my Auntie Jen and Auntie Nene (my father's sisters). I also gave each to my Uncles' wives. Of course I did not forgot "Nanny" and Nanay Josie who are like family to us. I aslo brought one for Ate Cons and Ate Dhel in the office. I haven't delivered Kathy's and Mommy Chi's. And of course my Grannies. My mom? well she got the huge portion, she even got one big chocolate that I baked last night!

TV fanatics say Direct TV vs. Dish

I warn you I can watch the television continuously! I love the episode marathons! I always look forward for it. I am a self confessed couch potato. Television is very essential to my everyday living. I admit that I can’t live without it. I always make sure that my television reception is clear especially when I have to catch up with my favorite television programs. Now days the debate on whether to use Direct TV over Dish Networks is an issue among fellow couch potatoes. It is I important to know the pros and cons of having Directv and having Dish Networks. I believe that they both have digital or advance features but still it is important to compare and settle for the best option they could offer. I guess every one of us has the couch potato inside of us. That is why we are very particular in Satellite Network Providers and Television Networks and we always look for the best in Direct TV Deals and Satellite TV Deals. So come on, lets unleash that couch potato in us

It is Mom's Day!

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.

~Washington Irving

I want to greet the all the mothers in the world a Happy Mother's Day. I was once said that the essence of being a woman is being a mother. True to the word, Our moms has given us all the unconditional love that she can give. She radiates love that is felt in every corner of our house. My mom is the source of my strength, the wind beneath my wings. I love you mom yesterday, today, tomorrow and for the rest of my life.

AC Compressors Dilema

It would be a nightmare if you are stuck in a heavy traffic along the highway, in the middle of summer at around 1-3 pm aboard your car with a broken AC compressor. For people who are allergic to heat like me, it would be one of the last things that I would like to experience. To avoid being in that situation, it would be the best to always make sure that your car’s air conditioning compressor is always in good condition. And if ever you would be having problems with you’re a/c compressors I would recommend to check out discountacparts.com. They have a complete line of ac compressors for all brands of cars, even Volkswagen ac compressor is included. They offer free shipping, and they guarantee that delivery would be very fast. They usually shipped the item the same day you ordered it to them as long as the item is available in their warehouse.So don't wait to be roasted because of malfunctioning ac compressors, have it replaced!

What the stars are telling

My Horoscope for today says:

If you are involved in any type of legal negotiations, get prepared for things to move to the next stage today. It's time to deal with paperwork and make that final commitment. You need to stay on top of all details right now and take no shortcuts, but you can do it -- in fact, you've been waiting for this for a long time. Just remember not to accept any grey areas or vague terms. Your life is all about black and white facts right now -- you need to know exactly what you're getting into.

I really do hope that what I'm currently working out would lead into something good. It was something I did not planned, it came to me and I responded on it spontaneously. I'm praying hard for it. I know that its about time to explore new grounds for me. I think I need this one.

Summer wear

I always loved the water. It calms me, it relaxes me, and it releases my tensions. I love the beach. Although I seldom take a dip in the water the mere sound of the waves and the water gives me a relaxing atmosphere. Last summer my friends and I went on a beach tripping. We visited two beaches on the same day. As early as five in the morning we are up and start traveling with just a bag of chips and instant noodles. We drove almost two hours only to find out that the first beach that we are eyeing is closed. That leaves us to settle on the next beach. I stayed on a big rock and watch the sun shine up. At noon we’re back on the road and headed home. Late in the afternoon we drove south to another beach. I let them explore the stretch of the coastline while I again stayed on the set of rocks and watched the sun go down. The scene was very dramatic, and I really loved it. I also happened to meet new friends, a couple of girls in their bathing suits watching the sunset with me. Speaking of swim suits, I found a site that sells swimsuits. I like this one piece swimsuit, because of the color and it is not showing too much skin and not too skimpy (the manang in me is showing !) Amiclubwear.com has a wide range of swimsuits that every summer fanatic would love. They offer free shipping if you reached their required amount. I call it a good deal for summer fanatics especially now a days. They even have swimsuits for as low as $20. Less hassle for those who are busy and don’t have enough time to go to the mall for their summer getaways.

Nice Wedding Rings

A good friend of mine is planning to marry his boyfriend of more than five years next year (hopefully it will really push through next year). I saw her doing some budget computations one time. And of course if we speak of wedding, the ring is one of the essential things to give attention to. She and her fiancé have been wearing several identical rings. The first one is a silver ring which I believe they have purchased on the early years of their relationship. Then they had a gold ring in which I was the one who provided the design. And lastly, a two tone gold ring that her fiancé gave her as a surprise last year. I kidded her and asked her where they would put their wedding ring, since they already have three rings. She laughed and told me she would be having another finger to be added to accommodate the Wedding Ring. She is kidding of course. I told her to consider titanium rings. Titanium is known for its very durable quality. In fact it is used for aircrafts and military vehicles. No wonder Titanium rings are guaranteed to never tarnish and would withstand the time. And Titanium Rings are not only made from the regular titanium but the high titanium grades are used in making those. One thing more they are not harmful to the human skin, in fact it can be worn by those who have sensitive skins. The wedding ring symbolizes the union of two persons, so just like the union. It must be very strong and durable and will last a lifetime. For single ladies like me a nice selection of black tungsten rings would do.

Inflicted with cough

I am sick, I have a very bad cough. I have been nursing a bedroom voice and an itchy throat for a couple of days now. I want to see a doctor but I opted to wait for the Annual Medical Check up. I just hope I'm still okay on the scheduled date of the check up. I wonder why it took so long to have it scheduled. I still have the difficulty in sleeping. I'm still looking at the window. Hmmm I think it would be better if we get window shutters.I would tell mom as soon as I get up from the bed.

Free Will

Every morning I used to watch a local morning show. There is segment there that discusses the daily horoscope for each Zodiac Signs. It is done by a very good astrologer. She would always say that horoscopes are just guide, and we are given free will and we should be using it. Free will is a very powerful word. It is defined philosophically according to a website as an ability or capacity to choose a course of action from among various alternatives. And in relation to this, a person is responsible for the effect of the course of action that he or she has chosen.

As a person we are all given the gift of free will. We have the freedom to choose but we also have the responsibility to what ever result our choices would breed. In this life we would make too many hard decisions. We would choose from a wide ray of options that would affect our lives. Picking the right decision could be very tricky. But we have family, we have friends, we have experiences that would help us and teach us or provides us with a clear view. But at the end of the day, the decision would still come from you and there is no one accountable for the decision that you’ve made except for you.
