Happy 2008!

Hi everyone! I haven't been blogging for a while.. feeling lazy as usual ehehehe. What I have been doing is play and watch Spiderman with my son...and draw some spider, apple, balloons etc with him. Right now, I am watching a marathon of Law & Order CI.. yesterday it was SVU. :) Hubby is still not here.. hopefully he will be able to make it home later (before new year comes). Hope we all have a fruitful and positive 2008! Have fun!

Fun Quizzes and More!

If we don’t have nothing to do nor can’t think of anything to write on our blog, we’d often posts pictures, tags, memes and sometimes we’d take fun quizzes and post the result on our blog. One site that has lots of fun quizzes, badges, widgets and gadgets that we can put on our blog is from Settlement Quotes. I took one of the quizzes and below is the result... Wohoo! I have at least 76 percent chance of living up to age 100 :D

Nasty Day

I thought it's gonna be a good day today, but it wasn't really. It's snowing outside...oh actually it's mixed of rain and snow... at least at this part of Chicagoland. It's wet outside... need extra care again in driving. Then I've been sneezing and got a headache.. arggghhh! I think I need a break :D

Computer Assisted Tutorials

Nowadays, one of the most essential thing in every houses is computer. Kids use it for school while others use it for business etc. But what if you don’t know how to use one? Computerbasedtraining.net or CBT can help you in that aspect. What is CBT? Their computer based training is also known as computer assisted tutorials where in the way of learning is not in a traditional manner. Instead of going to classrooms, students are trained by the computer. I think that this method of computer learning is much more effective than the traditional one as you can do it in your own pace. You can visit their website to also learn more about computer trainings for kids, e-learning and even Leadership skills.

Katam Hits Me

I don't know what's gotten into me... I guess "katam" (katamaran) really hits me so good! I didn't feel like doing anything (except for the "kodakan" moment with my little one here) up to this time but I have to get up and do one opp from SR that would expire today. Anyways, hopefully later today I will feel differently. Till next blog folks!

Inkjet Cartridges

Last Sunday, my husband and I had a petty quarrel about printer inks. Why? Because he asked me to print out a portion of an online receipt, which I did. However, even when I chose the “selection” option it still printed out the entire page. So hubby fuzzily commented… “Didn’t I tell you to just print out this part and not the entire page?” and so on. I told him not to fuss about it but then he said, he’s trying not to waste the ink for non-sense stuff. I said he didn’t have to worry about it coz I know a site that has lists of online stores that sell ink cartridges and laser toner that gives up to 80% discount of the retail price. Meaning it’s not gonna be a problem buying Hewlett Packard Printer Ink Cartridges for our HP PSC 750. He didn’t wanna believe how huge of a discount we can get, so I showed him the website. We even checked Inkjet coupons and so as the online store coupons for Carrot Ink and Inkgrabber. He couldn’t believe his eyes how much money we will be able to save using inkjetdeals.info.

Goofy Pics

I was pretty lazy today, didn't get much opps either. So I just laid down and watched t.v. most of the time and when I got up, Kuletz and I played with the webcam while waiting for my nanay to get online... here are some of our pics :) Wala lang kame magawang mag-ina! :D Walang tatawa.. ang tumawa panget!! hihihihi!

Don't Let The Bed Bugs Bite

Don’t let the bed bugs bite you, as we always hear. But what are bed bugs? They are teeny weeny insects that bite the heck out of warm-blooded being (human or animals). Their bites can cause a mild or intense allergic reaction which can be annoying cause you can’t resist the urge of scratching it. So how do these bed bugs invade our home and what can we do to manage bed bugs? The online guide to bed bugs can answer all our questions. Visit bedbugsguide.com now if you think your house is affected by bed bugs. Everything you need to know is there.

One Problem Solved

I am worried with my son not eating so much because he's become very picky. I don't know why, maybe it's just another stage of his life. I've been trying to give him vitamins like the chewables as his doctor recommended but he didn't want it. I guess the taste is awful (but I don't have problems giving him liquid medicines like cough or cold medicine... strange huh). So I just left it alone for a while. However, I get so worried everyday because he'd eat just a little bit here and there and it gets frustrating when I'm trying to feed him healthy foods and he didn't want it. Recently, my pharmacy tech friend suggested gummy bear vitamins, so when I went to Walmart I checked it out and got him one... woh! Surprisingly, he liked it! And he thought it's just a candy that he wants more than one :D I hope it will really suppliment the vitamins he needs while he's in this picky eating stage.

Online Dating

I just talked to my friend a few moments ago and she gets frustrated because she said she will never find the man of her life ever. I could understand that because she recently went out with a man that she met from one of the online Dating sites that she’s been a member for quite a while but the date didn’t turn out well. I consoled and told her that she just have to find the best online dating portal and not those wimpy ones. I suggested she check 5stardating.com. It is a site wherein you can compare internet dating sites like Match.com, Lavalife, Perfect Match and eHarmony. I even encouraged her to read 5stardating.com’s Dating Digest to learn more about dating tips and advice. Hopefully she’d check it out soon for her to meet more internet singles that may lead to a romantic and serious relationship for her.

Smiley

I thought I'd capture this sweet smile. I rarely seem him like that because everytime I want to take a picture of him, he's more busy wanting to grab the camera from me that smiling. I got lucky with this one. Actually, I used my webcam (hubby's gift) to capture this and he has a huge smile on his face because he's looking at himself on the computer monitor and trying to make faces :D

Diet Help

Since I gave birth I had a hard time maintaining my weight. It’s been up and down, up and down for quite a while now. I still remember when I was kid my mother used to get angry because I was skinny even if I always eat like there‘s no tomorrow. She said, I should eat a little bit more coz she didn’t want our neighbors to think that she’s not feeding me right. I don’t know why but during my teen days my friends teases me a lot and called me “kawayan” (bamboo) because they said I look like one as I was tall and so skinny.

Now, the eating like there’s no tomorrow started catching up with me. I can’t seem to lose the weight that I gained when I gave birth. I wanted to lose weight but don’t know where to start. It’s hard to decide which best weight loss program is right for me. Thankfully, one of my friends asked me to check out weight-loss-diet-help.com. I think this is a good starting ground for me as the site helps people like myself find the weight loss programs and diet plans that suit my needs. The site also give out tips on how to improve and achieve your weight loss permanently and so as give out coupons for Medifast, Nutrisystem and Weight Watchers to name a few. If you are interested you can check ‘em out too, it‘s gonna be worth your time.

Day After Christmas

So how's your day so far guys? I woke up kinda late, I'm tired from yesterday's happening even if we didn't have much action here. :) I just felt so sleep and so as the little boy here.

So far, everything is good. I cleaned up a little bit more and took out tons of garbage :D Checked out some pending opps and emails, friendster and more! There's not much to do and I guess I will be going back to bed in a few. Till next blog folks! Hope you had a great Christmas!

Picture Blankets

I’m sure most of us have taken tons of photos this past Christmas. The memories will surely last a lifetime but the picture itself wouldn’t. However, there are tons of ways to enjoy it while it last, traditionally, we’d put it on photo albums, share it with our family and friends through emails, social networks, put it in a digital frame and so on. Aside from what I have already mentioned, there’s this newest way of enjoying all your memorable photos brought to you by VisionBedding.com. They will turn your photos into a soft to the touch and comfy Picture Blanket. Yes they can! That means you get to see it every time you lay in your bed. Isn’t that neat? But you might wanna ask how they’d do it. Well, you need to visit their website to know more. Not only they offer picture blankets but also photo pillows, complete photo beddings for adults, teens and children with endless design possibilities. See it for yourself!

Christmas Day

Christmas morning came...I woke up at 6 a.m. to start preparing things and cooked early... After that hubby and Lionel got up started digging for the gifts under the tree.. so I put on my sweater and pants and joined them. It's pretty obvious on the picture that I haven't even washed my face hahahahah!

Lizard Lighting

In my previous posts, I’ve mentioned that we went to Rockford, IL to visit one of our friends. While cruising in their neighborhood, I’m a bit scared because it was very foggy. Thankfully the decorative lightings in every house we passed by uses tons of LED landscape lighting that illuminated the entire street which made it easier for us the see the right path. It didn’t just lighted up the street but it was so unbelievably beautiful! It isn’t a bad idea if they will leave it just like that all year round as I know that LED lightings can last up 50,000 hours or probably more and will cost about 90% less compared to any other lightings. LED landscape lighting can be used to illuminate your backyard or put it decoratively on your trees or pathways. If you want to know more about it and want to buy some for your own use, you can visit lizardlighting.com.

Maligayang Pasko!

Hey everyone! I might not be able to visit and greet you on your blogs, coz I will be very busy tomorrow preparing Christmas Dinner.. So before I run out of time, I'm wishing you all the best this Christmas. Enjoy!!!

Drug And Alcohol Rehab

We all know that addiction is one of the most popular problems that our society has been battling for a very long time. No matter what the government do to prevent it, it seems that nothing’s happening at all and it’s just getting worst and worst. It’s very disappointing and scary because this can happen to anyone we know or love.

When we hear or see the word addict, a lot of negative words comes to our minds. Like they are irresponsible, thieves, don’t care about their families, jobs or other things in their lives. All they care about is where to get the money to buy drugs to get high, or alcohol or whatever it is that they are addicted to. That’s why we can always hear the phrase, “once an addict, always an addict”. Do you believe in that? Because I don’t. I do believe that these people has the capability of recovering from whatever their addiction is. All they need is determination and someone that can help them.

There are a lot of drug rehab, alcohol rehab or drug treatment centers out there. But how do we determine the best one that would best fit you and meet your needs? One that I know of is called 1800nodrugs.com. They are a drug rehab referral service that helps drug addicts, alcoholics and victims of drug relapses to find a treatment center that suit an individual's need and will never cost a penny. It doesn’t matter if it’s your first time or have been to drug rehabs a lot of times already. They will be happy to give you a hand. So if you or someone you know has been struggling with some kind of addiction, and wants to take the first step to recovery, you can visit the website 1800nodrugs.com. Or you can simply call them at 1-800-NO-DRUGS, they are available 24/7.

We Made It There And Back Part II

So we went on and we just left Lansing and got lost already hahahah! Geez! Che really needs a GPS :D She passed the wrong exit. Anyways, after trying to go back on track and got stucked in a terrible traffic for an hour, we finally made our way... It was a smooth trip till we are close to Rockford. It was soooooo foggy that it's like you are in a spooky ghost town or something... You can't see anything but the gloomy red tail lights of the car in front of you...To be continued

Blogoria.com

Have you ever heard about the new site wherein you can connect with other bloggers, readers and advertisers? A Blogger Search & networking service called Blogoria.com. This is probably a good way of having our blogs exposed to the world wide web. I checked it out already and have registered myself so check ‘em out and be one of the citizens of Blogoria too!

We Made It There And Back Part I

Yesterday, we didn't almost make it to Rockford, coz first off, my friend is so late that my hubby is changing his mind in letting us go. He said it's getting dark outside and he didn't want us to travel by ourselves with a little kid. Although he's willing to drive us to Rockford and he'll just stay in a hotel. I don't want him to do that because I know that he's very very tired. It's so inconsiderate of me to give him all that kind of hassle. So I just told him that if Che will not call me at 4:00 p.m. I will just cancel the trip and re-schedule it some other time. Fortunately, Che called at 3:37 so we went on. To be continued...

HolidayLEDs.com

We normally take down our Christmas lights just right after New Year. We are so used to that and sometimes my husband would shake his head if he sees that there are still Christmas lights hanging in some of our neighbors’ houses even if its in the mid-June already. He’d comment, “I think our neighbor forgot to take down their lights”. I said what’s wrong with that? It still looks nice even if its not Christmas, isn’t it?

If it’s just me I will leave it as it is and use it as my night light. They are decorative lights so it doesn’t have to be just Christmas. You can use it to spruce up your front yard, accent your deck, you can use it to almost any occasion like weddings, 4th of July etc. Holidayleds.com’s mini lights are my fave and I’m thinking of getting some to put it in the basement as our night light cause we’d use up less energy compared to a regular light bulb, plus safer as it is cool to the touch. If you’d like to see more of this pretty decorative lights, visit holidayleds.com.

I Think It's Final!

Yes, I think it is. Hopefully Kulet'z runny nose is gone by tomorrow so we can really go to Rockford to see my friend Sha. Hubby is here and so far he's not saying anything about postponing it, so we'll see later today. We will be spending the night there wohoo! I'm crossing my fingers though. Hope hubby wouldn't change his mind in letting us go right in the very last minute. We'll see!!! :D I'm excited already but haven't packed a thing :D

Baby Slings

Do you remember the time when baby slings were used by some of the most famous celebrities here in the states like Julia Roberts, Cindy Crawford, Madonna to name a few? The reason why it came accross my mind is because I was thinking of giving one to my friend Donna, who just gave birth to an 8.5 lbs cute baby girl earlier last week. I thought it was a great Christmas present to her. I have one baby sling before, when I had my baby but it wasn’t as stylish and fashionable as slinglings.com is offering. I was looking at their padded and unpadded baby slings and I cannot decide which to buy because the fabric and patterns are all beautiful. I guess all I have to do is to give her a gift certificate from slinglings.com and so she can choose whichever she wants and take the pressure off of me.

My Type Of Music

This was a tag from one of my newest blogmates Noel. Thanks Noel! I know it's supposed to be for my own domain, but I decided to post it here :D I like the result and the graphics ha. It's so pretty. I do enjoy any type of music except for heavy metal. Gives me terrible headaches ehehehe

Table Top Displays

It’s Friday once again and here I am blog hopping. I’ve been going through some of my friends’ blog posts when some photos caught my attention. I couldn’t make it up at first because I wasn’t wearing my eyeglasses. But when I took a closer look, they are Table Top Displays and I’m telling you they are pretty attractive. Seeing this, the one thing that came to my mind is to recommend it to my friend who’s in the business of selling different items to local events and markets here in the Chicagoland and sometimes to different states. I’m sure this Table Top Displays will come very handy for her as it is easy to transport and set-up plus the fact that it will attract more customers. I’ll give the website to her cause I’m sure she’ll be interested. If you are too, you can visit godfreygroup.com.

Pretty Excited

TGIF!!! Yesterday my friend Che brought an idea of visiting our friend Sha in Rockford (actually it's in Loves Park-2 hour drive) this weekend. I got so excited because I haven't seen her in years! The last time I saw her was on her baby shower. That was three years ago to be exact. I really like the idea but the problem is if hubby would let us go. So I told him about it last night and he said "Sure you could"... but there's a big BUT...he said, check the weather first...I did... tomorrow it's gonna be in the 40's with a bit rainshower, I guess that's not bad for a December. So will see how it goes, I hope Che won't change her mind coz she'll be the one driving :D

New Payday Loan Site

Last Monday we got the chance to finish up our Christmas shopping. I couldn’t believe how much we spent for toys alone. I’m not complaining though, its just that the prices nowadays are unbelievably high as a skyscraper in downtown Chicago. Christmas is truly fun but will damage your pocketbook. :) I’m sure I’m not alone in this situation. Some will probably be short in cash and in need of a little assistance to go through this holiday season. One answer will be payday loan. There’s a new website that will allow you to apply for a payday loan which you can complete in just minutes and processed immediately, so you will get your money within 24-48 hours. You can borrow from $100-$1000. If you are interested, check them out at their website paydayloan.com.au.

Ouch!

Earlier this afternoon, I wasn't feeling well, my head is pounding a bit. So I stopped doing everything... from data entry to blogging. I sat on the bed, watched t.v. and fell asleep yey! I just woke up and still have a headache, I guess I really need to take aspirin, which, I'm trying to avoid as much as I can because it sure will take away my headache but will keep me up all night and eventually give me an upset stomach.. sigh... Well, I guess I have no choice for right now.

Health Insurance Portal

Finally our health insurance cards arrived earlier this week after they sent the first set to the wrong address. It’s good to know that we have it in case we need to go to the doctor for check-ups and things like that. What about you? Do you have a health insurance? If you don’t have it yet and planning to get one, you might consider getting a health insurance quote at the website called bupa.co.uk. They offer a wide range of services that can be tailored to your needs. Aside from health insurance and other health care services, they also offer financial protection, cash plans, travel insurance, childcare and more. Helpful health and other medical condition information are also available in their site. Check it out now, it‘s worth your time!

Where Will You Be On Christmas/New Year?

I asked that because every year we just celebrate Christmas and New Year at home. Just the three of us, sometimes we'd invite my MIL but most of the time she's out-of-the-state.

I miss celebrating these holidays just like we do in the Philippines. Every year, Christmas eve is celebrated at home with the family, then on the 25th we'd have dinner at my uncle's house (my mother's sibling). The whole clan is there. Chit-chat, food, videoke, jokes everywhere! While on New Year's eve, same.. it's celebrated at home (my mother didn't want us to leave the house at this time coz she said, we'll be out of the house for the whole year haahahah!) But on the 1st of Jan. we can go wherever we want, so we'd go out with friends.

While here, it's totally different. So quiet.. maybe because I don't have a lot of friends nor my husband doesn't have a big family either. What about you?

Wednesday

It's Wednesday folks! How are you all doing? I had the chance to sleep good last night. No data entry work, no opps to do. Set the alarm at 6 a.m. and as usual just turned it off then went back to bed. Woke op at 10 p.m. and all opps are gone! I want to go out today to do a little more shopping but unfortunately, MIL is busy and so as my friend. I don't wanna take a cab coz it's too much of a hassle for me and the little boy. Will just wait whenever there's a chance. I'll just probably sleep some more or do some online shopping :D

Take care all!

Aka la nila mayaman ka na kase may

bumili ng kotse sa America maglalakad
ka ng milya-milya sa ilalim ng init ng
araw o kaya sa snow. Walang jeepney,
tricycle o padyak sa America.

Akal a nila masarap ang buhay dito sa
America. Ang totoo、puro ka trabaho
kase pag di ka nagtrabaho、wala kang
pangbayad ng bills mo kotse、credit

Akala nila masaya ka kase nagpadala ka

Flowers For Christmas

Why do we like to give flowers? Because flowers is our way of expressing our emotions whether its in time of sorrow or sympathy, when someone is sick or happy occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and such. It brings a smile and lights up anyone’s face who happens to receive one.

As for me, I love getting flowers from my husband. He’d normally give me white and pink flowers on my birthday or on our anniversary and sometimes even if there’s no occasion at all. One flower that I miss the most is our national flower in the Philippines called Sampaguita. It’s a tiny little flower that smells so great! If I could, I would like to grow some here in the states.

Anyways, Christmas is just around the corner and I’m thinking of sending flowers and Christmas cards to my husband’s mother and aunts. Cause they are some of the people that I think has every material thing you could imagine. So sending flowers isn’t a bad idea. I’m on the lookout for some sites as of the moment. Oh by the way if you are thinking of sending flowers to your loved ones too this Christmas and in Oklahoma looking for Tulsa Flower Shop, check out flowersbysallyanne.com. You will love their Sleigh Ride and Gingerbread House bouquet. The pictures are shown below.

I'm planning to enroll in a gym but a bit hesitant because no one will watch my little boy and I'm scared to live him to a babysitter. I wonder how can I stop this late night munchies... Are you guys experiencing the same thing, or I am just the only one?

Skateboard 101

I have seen my stepson skateboard when we were still at the old house. He used to do it in our basement that sometimes it made his daddy a little pissed. Anyways, this Christmas he was asking his daddy to buy him skateboard wheels from warehouseskateboards.com But you all know that my husband doesn’t have the time as he‘s always out-of-town, so as usual, he asked me to do it for him. He gave me all the specifications that his son wants. I went to the site and so overwhelmed because there are tons of brands to choose from. I don’t know nothing much about skateboards but thankfully the site has a skateboard buying 101, a guide for a person like me. I didn’t even know till now that you can build a skateboard of your own. Other than skateboard wheels (which by the way has hundreds of brands and sizes-from 49mm-85mm) they also offer skateboard bearing, griptape, tools, risers, pads and even skateboard clothing. If you are interested to know more, visit them at warehouseskateboards.com. Oh I‘d also like to mention that they offer free shipping for all orders over $150!

Anyways, I'm trying do to as much opps as I can coz I might go out with my friend later today when she get off from work. We'll do some more Christmas shopping. So I gotta go for now. I'll see yah all later! Enjoy your Wednesday.

Skinny Santa?

I can't believe that they are trying to make Santa skinny? I just read about it in some forum. It seems like their blaming Santa for the recent rise of obesity in kids. Duh!!! Santa has been "chubby" for the longest. Can you imagine a skinny Santa? Can you picture our kids sitting on skinny Santa's lap? Does that mean we can't give him a cookie anymore, instead a stick of carrot or celery? Geez ! They taking it too far if you ask me.

Your Online Pharmacy

Last month, I was talking to my pharmacy technician friend on how to transfer prescription from pharmacy to another. As our old pharmacy is located kinda far from where we moved. She told me that I need to call this and that and let them know that you want to do this and that. I can’t remember all the instructions that she told me so I just left it alone for right now. But of course, I have to deal with it sooner or later. So I thought, why shouldn’t I try to look for an online pharmacy? I think it isn’t not much of a hassle as I can order my prescription at the comfort of my home and will be delivered in my front door. Like for example, if you’d like to buy Tramadol, Viagra, Levitra or any kind of medicines, 5mg.net is probably your best source. You can order in your own time, no waiting for doctors and its completely private. Your orders are reviewed by U.S. Licensed Physicians. They have a live help button so you can chat with their customer service staff in case you have questions. So check it out folks, they are looking forward to serving you with all your medical needs.

What Do You Want For Christmas?

what do you want for Christmas? We'd probably say, good health for me and the family, world peace (we all want that, don't we :D)etc. But I would like to know what material things do you want for Christmas. As for me, I'm torn between a new digital video camera (coz my old one is kinda big and heavy and it isn't the one that I can hook up on my PC) or I want a new Magic Mic, because my son just broke my Leadsinger mic arggggh!! What about you? Tell me about it please!!! :) Who knows Santa might be reading our blogs ehhehehe

Online Slots from Sloterix

Yey! Another online slot machine site that I can recommend to my mom-in-law. I was talking about sloterix.com. I’m always on the lookout for sites like this because of my mom.

Their website is simply designed but all the information needed is right there. From types of slots to chances of success can be found on their site.

What's For Christmas Dinner?

I was wondering guys, what food do you always prepare on Christmas dinner? I wanna have an idea because this year I want to make it a little different. Turkey is still gonna be there...I don't wanna make the usual thing that I cook for dinner like mashed potatos, flavored rice, veggies, pies etc. Any suggestions?

Tech Stuff

Last Sunday, while I was having a conversation with my husband, he all of sudden asked me a question about what camera I want. I guess he is still feeling guilty of taking my laptop and gave me a desktop wherein my webcam isn’t compatible. So I told him that I wanted a video camera that’s also capable of taking still pictures and as a webcam. I think he’s planning to surprise me with a videocam this Christmas. But I don’t want surprises like that. If he asked me about something that I like, I want to make sure that I will get exactly what I want. I told him that if he’s planning to buy me videocam for Christmas, I wanted to just buy it myself.

Techbargains.com is probably one of the sites that I am considering of looking at because they can help me save money and time in looking for a cheap digital video camera or a cheap digital camera so I can replace the one that I have right now that keep on saying card cover is open even if it’s not. Their site is user friendly and offers coupon codes, coupons and rebates from different stores. Also they update it 24/7 for great deals even on the weekends and holidays. I even subscribed to their free newsletter so I can get an up-to-the minute deal information. So, if you are looking for an access to the best tech deals even to your wireless device, subscribe to their RSS feeds now!

Arithmetic Lesson

This is quite a long post but I think its worth reading. This is a forwarded email from my friend Cel S. I'm not sure of the source of this post but I would like to share it with you. This is one of the reasons why our country, The Philippines, is considered as one of the countries in the third world. Not sure if this allegation is true though. But we all know how politicians in our country are.

A LESSON IN ARITHMETIC

Subject: Fr. Ed Panlilio - Gov. Of Pampanga

I'm 100% sure this income disparity is replicated in all the provinces of the
Philippines . If we had more Ed Panlilios in our government, we would be
just like Singapore in a short time. Read on...... We hope we are witnessing
what will be a sustained revolution in good governance in the
Province of Pampanga , under its newly elected governor, Fr. Ed Panlilio.
According to the Philippine Daily Inquirer of August 26, only one month
after Fr. Panlilio assumed his gubernatorial duties, the province's income
from the quarrying of volcanic ash from Mount Pinatubo had reached P29.4
million. (Haulers pay a fee of P300 per truck of volcanic ash that they haul
from the quarry.) By contrast, during his predecessor Mark Lapid's
term as governor, the province's income from the same quarrying operations
amounted to only P29 million a year. This gaping variation in official incomes
from the same activity should inspire a new set of textbooks in Arithmetic,
especially for the school children of Pampanga. There is nothing like local
color and local
situations to cultivate comprehension in young minds.

Sample problems: If Fr. Ed's provincial government can collect P29.4 million
in 26 days (we assume no quarrying on Sundays), how much does it
collect in one day?

Answer: An average of P1.130 million.

If Fr. Ed's provincial government collects an average of P1.130 million a day
from quarrying operations, how much can it collect in one year of 313
days (365 days less 52 Sundays)? Answer: P353, 690,000, or P354 million.

If Fr. Ed's provincial government can collect P354 million a year, and Mark
Lapid's provincial government collected only P29 million a year, what
is the difference in their official yearly collections?

Answer: P325 million a year.

If Mark Lapid was governor for four years and his provincial government's
annual collections from quarrying amounted to an average of P29 million,
how much did his provincial govt. officially collect in four years?

Answer: P116 million.

If Fr. Ed manages to remain as provincial governor for four years, and his
provincial government's annual collection from quarrying were to
average P354 million, how much will his provincial government collect in four
years?

Answer: P1.416 billion.

What is the difference between P1.416 billion and P116 million?

Answer: P1.3 billion.

Where did this P1.3 billion go?

Answer: Only God and the Lapids know. ('Lapids' is in plural because Mark, as
a second generation political dynast, succeeded his own father,
now Sen. Lito Lapid.

We don't know how much Lito's provincial government officially collected from
quarrying operations during his watch. Should be a good investigative
project for media.) If Gawad Kalinga spends an average of P75,000 per low cost
house, how many low-cost houses can P1.3 billion build?

Answer: 17,333 low-cost houses.

If the average Pampanga family were to consist of five persons (father,
mother, three children), how many people would be benefited by 17,333
low-cost houses?

Answer: 86,665 persons.

End of Arithmetic lesson.

Fr. Ed is to be congratulated for setting a high benchmark for collection from
quarrying operations against which his predecessors have a moral
obligation to explain why their collections were so low, and against which
future governors will be judged by the people of Pampanga.

Volcanic ash, by the way, is a superior building material. Many of the
buildings, aqueducts & monuments of the Roman Empire that have survived for
almost 2,000 years are known to have been built w/ volcanic ash, quarried from
the environs of Mount Vesuvius after it erupted in 79 AD.

We don't expect Fr.Ed's moral victory in Pampanga to be remembered for the
next 2,000 yrs. We would be happy with five, ten or 20 years, enough, we>
hope, to spawn a moral-revolution- by- example to save the Filipinos from
their worst enemies - themselves. GOOD LUCK Philippines !

"Therefore, the primary cause of poverty is not overpopulation of the Phil!
It's because our country is overpopulated with corrupt officials"!

Border Billiards

When I was younger I used to love watching my uncles play billiards. Some of them encouraged me to play, but I said no. To me, it looks like it’s tough so I said I just want to watch them. Back then I don’t even understand what’s the object of the game, I just want to see them sink the ball to the pockets.

Anyways, one time when me and my friends went out, we went to a bowling alley in Megamall to play bowling. When we got tired, their boyfriends encouraged us to play pool with them. I said no because I don’t know how to play, but they forced me and said they will teach me. So in other words they persuaded me into playing. Believe it or not it’s not as hard as I thought it was, I actually had a great time. I may not be good at it but I enjoyed it very much.

And so now, when I got here in the States, I had a chance to play with my new found friends too. I’m still not good but I don’t care I just like to play. I even encouraged my husband to buy Pool Table and Pool Table Accessories for our house so we don’t have to go somewhere if we ever want to play. I could even invite my friends here and have a little competition and party. He said he’ll consider it so he asked me to shop around. While browsing, I found a website that offers everything from pool table covers, to pool balls, pool ball racks, pool cue chalks, pool cues, pool cues racks and more! So if you are planning to buy too, visit borderbilliards.com. They offer a fast and free shipping in 48 states and has a 30 day product return policy too.

Tuesday

I woke up kinda late today. I set the alarm at 6 o'clock in the morning because I reserved an opp from PPP. 6 a.m. came and alarm went off, hit the snooze button and ended waking up at 11 in the morning. Darn! I missed my opp.

Anyways, my kuletz and I just had our breakfast (geez! breakfast at past 2 p.m.). Started doing some household chores and now I'm getting ready to sit down here in front of my PC and do some data entry and if lucky, I'll probably be able to grab some opps. :) So how about you? How's your Tuesday so far?

The Voice Of The Web

Have you ever heard of Ifbyphone - "The Voice of the Web"? Because I was checking their site out and just put my phone number to learn more of it, and I was so surprised when they called me within half a second! That fast I’m telling you. I have learned that most online businesses are using ifbyphone now to increase lead generations, improve sales and enhance customer experience. I guess this is the system that one of the shopping sites used when I wanted to ask about the product that I ordered. I just entered my contact number and they called me automatically. I’d would probably use this if I happen to put up an online store as customers will be pleased with it because they can talk to a person right away that can answer or deal with their concerns.

Anyway, if you want to know more information about it please keep reading.

Press Release:

Ifbyphone Releases revolutionary Phone-Me-Now: the world’s first Zero Configuration Click to Call
With 100 free minutes per month Phone-Me-Now

Promises to be biggest Killer App of 2008

Chicago, IL: December, 2007 - Ifbyphone, a voice infrastructure and applications development company providing enterprise class services to Small and Medium sized Businesses (SMB’s), has just released a solution destined to revolutionize the web to voice space: Phone-Me-Now, a zero configuration click to call application. To introduce Phone-Me-Now to hundreds of thousands of businesses that will be able to use it as a sales tool, Ifbyphone is making it available free of charge for 6 months and providing the first 100 minutes per month of usage for free as well.

This patent pending solution can be integrated in less then 60 seconds into any website, email or hyperlinked document and requires no experience to configure. It’s literally the Internet’s first instant voice mash up tool.
"While many companies provide click to call services we were troubled by how complex they are to use. Users had to cut and paste HTML or javascript, rendering these services outside of the technical reach of thousands of businesses. Once we designed this patent pending solution we configured our existing smart click to call services to work with the Phone-Me-Now interface." says Irv Shapiro, Founder and CEO of Ifbyphone. The zero configuration Phone-Me-Now service is literally the Holy Grail of web to telephone integration and ease of use.

Using Phone-Me-Now is as simple as typing:

www.phone-me-now/your-business-number

into any web site, Word Document, Powerpoint Presentation, Spreadsheet, PDF or email. When a reader clicks on the link they are prompted for their telephone number and the Ifbyphone systems call your business, calls the reader and conferences the call. Phone-Me-Now works with any telephone number you register on your Ifbyphone account.

"We wanted to eliminate any barriers to basic click to call, and know that Phone-Me-Now will immediately set an industry standard for rapid deployment. If the Internet is all about speed and response, what could be a more appropriate Killer App for 2008 than Phone-Me-Now, which puts a business owner in instant voice communication with their customers," adds Shapiro.

Free Phone-Me-Now accounts can be updated to additional Ifbyphone packages that include:

- Click to Call with Custom Dialog Forms
- Integrated Call Routing and Reporting
- Find Me
- Virtual Voice Mail
- Virtual Receptionist
- Outbound Voice Broadcast
- Web Configured Voice Dialogs (Hosted IVR)
- Call Recording
- Backend Database Integration
- A Complete Call Management API

All Ifbyphone solutions work with any telephone system and are fully portable if a company moves from one telephone transport vendor to another.

At this time we have all the insurance that we need and afford. We have car insurance, health insurance and life insurance. And I think we even have a house insurance now.

Snagged From Aling Tikya!

Aling Tikya, I snatched this one from your Gags, Chuckles and Giggles blog :) I know you know the reason why eheheheh Thanks very much... Anyways, It turned out that my beauty (meron ba?) element is earth too... Maybe because I don't like make-up too much.. my skin isn't that sensitive but when I put make-up on it feels itchy and heavy.. it doesn't matter what brand. So I'm good with a bit of lipstick or gloss and baby powder :D

Your Beauty Element is Earth

You are the epitome of a natural beauty. Your look is definitely effortless. And while you shy away from a lot of make-up and accessories, you're no granola girl either!

What's Your Beauty Element?

Mommy Makeover?

Having a child/children is one of the great accomplishments for a woman like me. But we all know that when you give birth, it has an effect to a woman’s body. We tend to get stretch marks, we lose elasticity around our stomach and most of all we gain too much weight even though we exercise, sometimes we can’t just control it cause for others, it is just genetics. These are some factors that probably affect a woman’s behavior. Some get depressed and everything, but some seek one of the popular surgical procedures which they call Mommy Makeover.

As I have read from articles, usually a Mommy Makeover consists of a tummy tuck, breast lift and I think liposuction too. It can be done during one surgery or sometimes they break the procedure to more than one day. Rodeo Drive Plastic Surgery is one of the centers that specializes in doing that procedure from patients of 20-40 years old. They determine the best approach from their patients’ body type and overall health. They take extra steps in making sure that there’s minimal pain and maximum safety in every procedures. They provide exceptional surgical care at a very reasonable price. They don’t just do Mommy Makeover, they also have one of the Beverly Hills rhinoplasty experts. This Los Angeles plastic surgeon/s also conduct facelift, brow lift, eyelift, Botox, and so as breast augmentation to name a few.

Most of their patients come from different parts of the States, which probably means that they are one of the best. If you are considering at least one of the above mentioned procedures, just visit Rodeo Drive Plastic Surgery’s website to learn more. Read their patients’ testimonials and see the before and after photos too. As they said, they treat everybody like a celebrity!

Sighhhhhhh

I feel so tired. I went to bed last night err.. i meant, earlier... around 4 a.m., I wasn't able to finish the last opp though, coz I am so sleepy already, plus I needed to wake up early so I can clean-up the house so it will be pleasing to the eyes when hubby comes. I know he's tired from working too so the least I could offer him is a neat house where he can relax and rest, worry free.

Anyways, I am done with the chores so I'm back to work..ehheheh hope there's some more left for me :) Laterz!

Haggerston Castle

Are you familiar with Haggerston castle caravan park? I am not familiar with the said park myself so I checked their website and was impressed with what they have to offer. They have an amazing view such as landscaped gardens and a boating lake. They have a 9 hole golf course and outdoor multi sports action like archery and fencing. You can also swim in their indoor or outdoor pools. And the latest feature that they added in their holiday park is the professional spa that offers manicures and massages that would pamper you. At this time they are offering half price on summer holidays for the year 2008. Check it out and plan your trip now!

Reading Level

I came across this test at Ms.Juliana's bravejournal. I just did it to my other blog and the result was surprising to me and so as this one :d How about you? Have you tried checking your blog's reading level?

Dyson Products

I bought a vacuum cleaner a couple of months ago and so disappointed because it is not working well as when I first got it. I thought I should have followed my first instinct which is to buy Dyson vacuum cleaner. Dyson is one of the most popular models in the market and heard that it is so durable because they were developed and built to last. Buying Dyson parts is probably the least thing you would do. But, if for some reasons you need to buy one, all you need to do now is to get online and visit their newly designed site. You will easily find the Dyson parts that you need and also different Dyson products from upright, cylinder to handheld models.

I am considering of buying one of their upright vacuum cleaner to replace the one that I have right now. And my eyes are all on their Dyson Slim which is for all floor types, lightweight, has a root cyclone technology plus you can get a free party clean-up kit. I think that is a pretty good deal.

Link Tag

A tag from Ms. Juliana...Thank you very, very much! You know pretty well that I need stuff like this one eheheheh Now, I am passing this to my blogmates namely Aling Tikya, Redlan, Losel, Diane, Eds, JazeVox and Francine. If you have done this guys just skip it once again :D TY!

The rule:

Holiday Cards

It is 5th of December already but up to this time I haven’t had any Christmas cards sent out yet. Yesterday I was in Walmart browsing their stack of greeting cards but I didn’t like any of it as I have seen and bought some of those last year. I want something new and more personal. So what I did is to get online and check out for some custom holiday cards and boy was there a lot of site that offers it. I started visiting each one that caught my attention and decided that VistaPrint.com is the winner. Not only its affordable but they have tons of designs and images to choose from. And to make your holiday cards much more personalized, you can upload your own photos to complete the design. It would only take a few minutes and receive the finished products in as few as 3 days. Meaning, I still have plenty of time to order mine.

Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow

It is 1:13 in the morning now and it is still snowing outside. I'm telling you it is so pretty when the snow is not disturbed by snow plows nor shovels... It looks like I have a sugary front lawn and backyard. Our neighbors roof looks nice too eheehhehe.. And believe it or not it looks like 6 a.m. already because it's so bright out. We probably have 4-5 inches already :)

HDTVs From Second Act

Before I got so busy blogging, the main thing that I do online is GPT or Get Paid To sign up for freebies or to try products etc. Some pays cash, some pays items like camera, gift cards and the recent one that I did is giving HDTV television. Unfortunately, I ran out of time in completing the requirements to receive the television. I am so disappointed because I like to have that HDTV. I have been wanting that for the longest. I have been telling my husband about it and he said that I should go ahead and check out online which offers a great deal on the t.v. that I want.

Second Act, offers product that’s factory refurbished, overstocks and close-outs, is one of the sites that I’ve been looking because I have read about it from one of my friends’ blog so I decided to take a peek. Surprisingly, they don’t just offer televisions but complete video, audio and home theaters, plus other appliances and electronic items too. You can shop by brand, prices and sizes. Check it out now! Their deal of the day, which is a refurbished Sharp LC37SH20U 37 inch Flat Panel LCD HDTV, might interest you. Also, you might wanna sign up for their newsletter to receive their deal of the day on your email.

It is so pretty outside because it's snowing!!! It's a lot of snow tonight compared to the last snow fall. My son and I sat by the window for a moment to just watch it :) But for you who's gonna be driving, please be very careful.. I know it is slippery out there. I took some pictures of the snow outside earlier but it isn't much at that time.. we'll see how it goes later.. might take a few more :D Later all!

Sign-up And Win!

It’s getting cold here in Chicagoland everyday and I’m loving it. But my husband is not a huge fan of cold weather. If you are to ask him where he wants to be at this point, he’d say he want to go somewhere warm like Florida. He’s been wanting to go explore the clear waters of the Key West. Do some snorkeling and sailing. He also wants his son to experience the Wild Dolphin adventures there. So he’s been looking for a site that offers a discounted tickets to the best sightseeing tours in Key West and he found Trusted Tours and Attractions which offers easy and safe online ticketing for various sightseeing tours, attractions and museums. They will give you great customer service, outstanding hospitality and exceptional value. That is why my husband even signed up for the Trusted Travel E-News for a chance to win 4 free tickets to attractions and tours in one of the 21 different cities such as San Diego, Savannah and Charleston to name a few. So what are you waiting for? Sign-up for the Trusted Tours and Attractions newsletter and win! Their promotion will end Friday, December 14th 2007.

Be Extra Careful

As I posted earlier, it snowed today... just right before hubby went to bed he called me and said, take a look how slippery the street was coz the snow turned into ice as it rained too. So for you who are gonna be driving tomorrow, please take extra care. Slow down a little bit. Drive carefully!

Hotels In England

Last night my hubby and I had a talk about him being tired because since he got his new job, he never had a chance to take a break that he used to have. Before, we have a once a year big vacation. It stopped when I gave birth to my little one because he’s to young to be traveling. Now that he’s a little older we can probably start doing it again. The question is where? Cause we have too many great vacation spots on our list. Plus we need to plan it well. One important part is finding a great hotel to stay in.

Among our choices are France, England or New Zealand. But most probably end up going to London as my aunt has been bugging us to visit her, which I’ve probably mentioned in my previous posts already. So we need to be looking for Hotels in London. We’d love to see Sherlock Holmes Museum, the Millennium Bridge and the London Planetarium. Aunt Nelly said that while there in England, we should also visit Birmingham to see their Botanical Gardens and Glasshouses and Manchester too. Cheap Hotels in Manchester and Hotels in Birmingham is one of the things that I should be looking for because I don’t think my husband would like to stay in my Aunt’s place even if she insisted. Anyway, comparing prices from site to site, I ended up choosing cheaperthanhotels.co.uk, so when we are ready for our big vacation, I know where to go for great deals.
