Tropical Storm Ondoy

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

I know that almost everyone have seen the devastation left by Philippine Tropical Storm Ondoy. Floods everywhere. So many people were injured. A lot died while trying to save their lives and that of their families. Hundreds of families were left homeless. Some people have gone missing. You can feel the anguish felt by these [...]

Devastation left by Ondoy

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

Have you seen the devastation left by the tropical storm Ondoy? Well, this is the first time I’ve seen some places personally. I had to go out today to do some grocery shopping. And the places we’ve passed by… there were mattresses, pillows, boxes, dirty clothes, torn spoiler and different car parts, and so many [...]

New header

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

I was not able to save the header that I was using before. I am still searching for it in my archives because I know I was able to transfer to the external hard drive somehow. For the meantime, this will be my header. Still representative of a family (home) which is what this blog [...]

Practical gift

Monday, September 28th, 2009

My aunt gives practical gifts. I think I got the same attitude from her. She gave a cousin and his wife an rv towing plan. She knows that they can use it more than any other gift since the couple loves to go on rv parks every weekend. At least should anything happen to them [...]

Sign you need

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

Exit Sign. That’s the sign you need to look for and see when there’s an emergency. I always remind my sisters who are all working already to make sure that they know where the fire exits are. Just look for the exit signs even from afar and you would know right away where the emergency [...]

For the meantime…

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

Until I’ll be able to get back the theme that I lost, this will do. I like it but it’s too pink for me hehe Anyway, let me tell you about what happened to my blog yesterday… it got hacked! Either by someone or by a virus that I got while fixing a friend’s blog. [...]

Medical malpractice

Saturday, September 19th, 2009

We often hear of medical malpractice cases almost every day. Some are reported by the media, some are not. I’ve been witness to this in the past, when my brother had leukemia. Wrong medication, wrong diagnosis… there are so many malpractice cases out there that are unreported, believe me. Thank goodness there is a Bronx [...]

A solo getaway

Wednesday, September 16th, 2009

I’ve been looking up Cancun resorts right now. I need some time for myself. I would like to spend some time relaxing and not thinking of all the tasks I need to do, the errands I need to run, and the worries of tomorrow. I need to spend some time not thinking about the future [...]

Just around the corner

Wednesday, September 16th, 2009

The holiday season is around the corner. I am sure that in the country, people are already feeling it. We are a nation that has the longest holiday celebration. And we love our food! Even thinking about the food served during the holidays makes my mouth water. I have to stock up on the best [...]

Grieving family

Monday, September 14th, 2009

I saw an article about the Travolta family finally facing the cameras again after grieving over the loss of Jett Travolta, 16, due to a seizure. Nine months after their son Jett’s death, John Travolta and wife Kelly Preston took the stage with their daughter Ella Bleu, 9, to promote their new Disney film Old [...]

Cable offers you can't resist

Sunday, September 6th, 2009

I am currently gathering information about the comcast cable deals that a friend told me about. I am interested with their service. I think I have already written in the past here in this blog that my family and I love to watch tv shows and movies together. That’s why if you go to our [...]

Stuck

Sunday, September 6th, 2009

I hate that I am so much tied to my feelings. I cannot function properly when I am feeling down. And these days, I easily get sucked down to the pits of emotional garbage. And when I do, expect me to stay there until something becomes a pick-me-up tool for me. If I can help [...]

Need not be expensive

Sunday, September 6th, 2009

Not all things lovely should be expensive. There are simple yet elegant things one can have that cost low. This is a lesson I learned from one of my mentors. She is a very elegant woman whom you will respect at first glance. And more so when you get to talk to her and know [...]

Unnecessary problems

Sunday, September 6th, 2009

We saw D at the grocery store. She’s buying dog supplies. She told us she’s alone but when she thought our backs were already turned, we saw her with her boyfriend. She’s only 15. I have nothing against having a boyfriend. Even at an early age. There are teens who can handle it, especially with [...]
