I’d always find it hard looking for gifts to be given to certain persons on special occasions. I don’t know but they seem to have everything already and that anything you can think of they already have it. I’m always in this kind of situation because I have friends who are really materially [...]
Movies - that is the perfect bonding time for the family. We see to it that at least once a week we do watch a film. We would normally come in early so we can watch the sneak preview of upcoming movies. Dear John is definitely on our list. We love [...]
I have quite a number of friends who stay in Texas. But this post is not just for them but for all who plan to move to Austin and is looking for a place to stay for good. I hope you thank me later since I was the one who paved the way [...]
Yahoo! I am so happy today. Normally I’m frustrated every MWF around 6 pm. Well, not today! Finally I was able to catch up with my aerobics class. I was able to do hi lo with them, I can now memorize the steps! I almost gave up on my [...]
Did you know that I want to move to the US? It’s been a long time dream of mine. I remember putting that in my wish list and it never gets ticked. I don’t know what’s my love affair with the US that I wanted so much to live there. Probably [...]
Let’s face it, times are hard nowadays. Many of us complain that what we earn is not enough. Salary increase does not come by as fast as price hike. We are left no choice but to squeeze whatever is there. Do you think that happens every month? What about those unexpected expenses, where do we [...]
I thought we didn’t have internet connection. It was still working when I turned the modem off the other day. But when I turned the modem, there was no connection. I gave up after trying to figure out what was wrong. It was night time so I couldn’t call our service [...]
Weddings get really really elegant nowadays. During my time it wasn’t as beautiful. This is just my opinion. Wait I was talking the invitations, giveaways, programs, etc. The ceremony will always be beautiful, let us make that clear. What I like about today’s weddings is that you get a lot [...]
Nowadays we need to be wise on how we invest our money. Times are hard so as much as possible we want to maximize everything our investments included. Have you heard about CDs? These are Certificates of Deposit. It’s like works like a savings account but there is a difference. [...]
Used it today for the first time. I’m not supposed to be doing Mondays but then I missed Friday. It was fun today. I didn’t quite catch the steps today because of a new instructor. Nobody really taught me the basic so I need a lot of catching up to [...]
New Year! I read a lot of New Year’s resolution! Getting out of debt is always on top of the list. But how? That is exactly what most of us need to know. It’s hard when you’re in debt. It’s like there is no peace at all. You [...]
I know I have 2 fridges at home. I am content having it. Why 2 you ask? I don’t want to overload my fridge because it will destroy the motor. I buy food enough for a week and it does not fit in one regular sized fridge. What if I [...]
Weeeee! I’m back to dancing, but a different one. It’s aerobics dancing. We do hi lo, latin, jam, hiphop and we even did a little of yin yoga for cool down. My first day was really off since aerobics is new to me. I couldn’t catch up in class. [...]
All of us in the family wear glasses. Ish and Mr. N both use contact lenses and eyeglasses. That leaves me and Josh still wearing eyeglasses. I think I already posted my collection of eyeglasses in one of my blogs and remembered getting a lot of comments. Comments were mostly [...]
Times are hard. Sometimes I don’t want to watch the telly anymore because of numerous news about bad elements doing their thing again. Honestly I am a bit scared to the point of being paranoid already. I hate the feeling! I’ve been thinking of applying for a prepaid visa card so [...]
Remember this entry? I was talking about my progress there with my knitting project, a slouchy beret requested by my daughter. Well just to let you know, I was able to finish it right in time for Christmas. Christmas eve to be exact, sweet isn’t it? Of course my darling [...]
Pregnant Moms or Moms for that matter are really lucky nowadays. I wish I had internet connection during those times I was pregnant with my two kids. Sadly, internet was not even introduced to us. Anyway the reason why I mentioned that pregnant Moms are lucky nowadays is because of certain websites [...]
I read somewhere that companies have started investing in Costa Rica. This is now considered as an attractive location to invest. Tourism is also highly noticeable now with thousands of visitors each year. I have heard about this first hand from a missionary couple assigned to that country years back. [...]
Finally went to the dermatologist yesterday for treatment. The treatment is actually for Josh only and both me and Ish had facials. What I want in this clinic is that only the doctor does the pricking. It’s about 300 pesos dearer than going to an ordinary facial center but I don’t really [...]
I heard that most insurance today does not really cover everything. If you fall under such insurance, I suggest you look into getting medicare supplement plans. In my opinion it’s kinda useless having an insurance which you can’t use because what happened to you is not covered. It would also be [...]
