We just missed the Pacquiao-Marquez event. Instead of staying glued in front of the TV we went to the playground with the kids. We were glad the outdoor playground at the mall was finally opened. We brought along my son’s cousin for our trip. We thought we could leave them alone to play there and just pick them up later but the guard said they must be accompanied at all times. So we had no choice but stay there with them. They had fun going inside tunnels that look like stainless steel drum and climbing obstacle courses, and sliding down the slides.
Little Zack also played there. Hubby was tired at the end of the day because he was carrying him all day. One thing we learned was it was tiring to have many kids. We had three that day – cousin included – and we really had no time to shop for ourselves. I wonder how other families with three or more kids manage. The parents must be tired all the time. We’re glad we just have two as of the moment. We want another one but he/she have to wait. LOL!

My helper, Bam, is nearing the end of her studies. She was supposed to graduate last March but she flunked two of her subjects and that’s what she is completing this semester. I’m glad that she has learned her lesson and is doing her best in her schoolwork. I’m confident that she will finally get her diploma this March.
Meanwhile, we are also looking for Host/Hostess Jobs online in preparation for her future. She is good around the house and I know she will be a blessing to her employer. We have been living with her for three years and we know for a fact that she is hardworking, patient, and most of all, trustworthy. If only I can afford to keep her here forever I will but she must spread her wings and find her calling so although I’m sad we will be saying goodbye to her maybe next year.
Last few months, I have been sleeping very late – as late as 3am. Eversince my youngest started crawling I had to devote most of my time taking care of him. I can hardly turn on my laptop or do any kind of work. This led me to sleep longer during the nights. I found that it was the only time I can be productive without being bothered. Unfortunately, I can’t recommend this habit of sleeping late because as I was to find out months later it can wreak havoc to my hormones. Pimples started appearing leaving unsightly blemishes behind. I immediately regretted staying up late nights and vowed not to do it again.
Sometimes, people develop habits that are hard to break. Some of these habits are dangerous like the habit of taking painkillers, for example. You can feel immediate relief from pain at first but in the long run it will do more harm than good. If you find yourself in this situation and can’t stop go to a opiate detox treatment immediately. These facilities can help you stop these deadly cycle of addiction.

We went out last week to attend a birthday party of a 7-year old girl. I had no idea what to give her so we dropped by at the mall first to take a look. I wanted to give her something useful like a citizen watch but wanted something not as expensive because she is only 7 after all. Good thing I found an offer at Tomato They are selling inexpensive but cool looking watches for P350 each if you buy two. I immediately bought two – one for her and the other one for me.

One of the newest and most remarkable things to happen to automobile lighting in the past few years has been two new technologies, LED and Honda HID lights. HIDs are high-intensity discharge headlights that are brighter then traditional halogen lights and are designed to be wider and stretch farther. This gives the driver a better view during night driving and this effect is achieved by heating up a special inert gas called xenon.
Even though the Honda is an amazing car, and Honda HID lights have been progressively becoming more and more popular, the technology has actually been around for quite some time. In fact, BMW released the first HID in its 7 Series back in 1991, and this product has not slowed down since. Now you are able to find vehicles of all kinds, ranging from classic cars, to big work vehicles that have been equipped with these valuable lights. This not only increases the awesome look and feel of your automobile, but it also gives the driver an important edge against the threats imposed by the limitations of darkness.
In addition to the look of Honda HID lights, another aspect that had been attractive to car owners is the product’s ease of installation. The only additional requirement has been the mounting of a ballast. This special attachment is designed to help heat up the gas that
makes the lights so effective.
Not only have the HIDs by them selves been an asset to the Honda and other cars, but so too has the LED. This is an additional lighting system that is surprisingly energy efficient, extremely durable, and now that there have been reductions in production costs it is also very inexpensive. When you combine these two lights you produce an effective and beautiful glow that is both simultaneously blue and white.

If you are thinking about buying Honda HID lighting, think about not just what it is going to look like, but also how it can potentially do to positively impact you and your family’s lives. There are countless people who understand that as much as 90% of what we base our driving on comes from what we see of the world around us. If we are limiting that view because we are using an inefficient traditional halogen lighting system then we are not just putting ourselves and others at risk, we are doing so unnecessarily. It’s easy to think that accidents don’t happen to you, but even at night, when there is 60% less people driving, 40% of those involved in accidents will die from their injuries.
Remember that these lights can add a whole new amazing dimension to your vehicle, but they are also designed in such a way that they can assist you in your safety awareness, making them a valuable asset as well.

When I was still in college, laptops were not a staple in every classroom. We had to take copious notes in our notebooks if we want to pass our exams. There was no internet either and we had to go to the library to research for information.
Students today have it easy. Laptops and internet have since become more affordable and now it is a must for every serious student to have one. I am even thinking of giving my 6 year old his own laptop to use since there are many great resource for students online. Many websites like the source sells laptops for students and offer great deals that are hard to refuse. I am still thinking about it but I know when they go on sale it would be hard for me not to click the buy button.
Giving gifts is one of the best thing we can do to our loved ones. I know they say material things should not be of importance but an unexpected surprise can make the other person feel loved.
I am a woman and I know how other women feel about giving their boyfriends or husbands gifs. It is just so hard to find gifts for them, wouldn’t you agree? Men are known to be gadget freaks but sometimes we don’t have a budget big enough for those spanking new gadgets. What we want to give them is not something that’s expensive but something that’s romantic and shows our love for them. A nice romantic gift for boyfriend could be a love letter or poem you wrote yourself, a scrapbook you spent hours working on, or some heart shaped chocolates that could make him smile. Just be creative and you would surely find more gift ideas that your man would love.
We are pretty excited this coming Christmas season. It will be the first time we have our little Zack with us – actually, it is the second time already but last year doesn’t count because he was only three weeks old. We kind of missed last year’s Christmas because of our newborn but now that he’ll be a year old this December I am positive we’ll have a blast! We have lots of activities to attend and lots of parties too. I can’t wait to send out of Christmas photo cards which I have neglected during the past years. We might have our own DSLR before Christmas so we can shoot our own photo but we can also take advantage of the photo booth discounts at the mall.
After Christmas we would then start preparing for my beloved husband’s birthday. This time I will have to overcome my fear of cooking and try to cook a small feast for our friends so wish me luck! A few weeks after that would be my first born son’s birthday and we’ll be off to Bohol for that. We are so excited because this is our first family vacation and the first time our children will see the beach and ride a plane.

Our family loves barbecue. What I don’t love about it is the cooking aspect. In order to cook we need to use charcoal and fan until the flames are good. Soon we would end up smelling like the barbecue we are cooking. That’s why I want to buy an electric grill one of these days. Electric grills are so convenient. We can use it indoors so we can still have our barbecue even when it’s raining. I believe this is a good investment because it will reduce our cooking time and we would be smelling much better come dinner time.

We’ll be having a garage sale this week. Now that all of us are at home all the time we need more space for me and my hubby to work and our son to study at. That’s why we have decided to sell some of our bulky furniture and also those that we are not using. Aside from that we will also clean our closets and sell old clothes. Whatever money we gather will be used in the construction of our office space and study area so that we can work comfortably. We might not have prestigious jobs like Veterinary Technician Jobs but I’m glad in our field of work we don’t have to go out to be able to provide for our family’s needs.
