school again?

Sometimes I'm thinking of going back to school and studying again. I surprisingly miss studying. I guess it's the constant search for more knowledge thing. Well, I know some peers who have gone back to school, either to pursue MBA or probably law school. Sometimes the thought excites me but sometimes I ask myself if I still want to put myself into that position of formally studying again. Well, there's really a lot of options available, like taking some short courses or probably applying to an online university like capella university. It offers graduate online degree programs. There are really numerous programs you can choose from: business, information technology, education, human services, public health, public safety, and psychology. Oh well. let's just see. I'll have to ponder on this more.

comfort first

I'm not much of a trendy person. I'm not good with fashion. I'm not experimental enough when it comes to designs and colors. I don't really put on much accessories. It's just usually a pearl earrings and probably a pearl necklace during more formal gatherings. I'm more into the classic look. Well, my style might be a little boring, but that's what I'm comfortable wearing. And I think that's what matters most, right?

rehab

Do you have friends and/ or relatives who are into drugs? I know this is one issue which is a little sensitive and hard to deal with. Sometimes we're even in denial that the problem exists. But I think if we really love them, we'll try as much as possible to send them to drug treatment centers where professionals can treat them and rehabilitate them. I know this process can be very emotionally draining but one must be strong enough to face it or it might be too late already.

moving

In just a few days my sweetie’s mom (whom I have never met) is finally going home from Canada. I’m actually a little scared. I don’t know why. Anyway, I’m just really happy that my sweetie’s family would be together again after how many years. I know it’s not easy for his mom to just give up their Canada immigration dream. Well, his mom has already started sending cargos of her stuff. She should’ve just gotten service from Long Distance Moving Companies so it wouldn’t hassle her too much. She has sent around 8 big boxes of all her things already and I think there’s more to come since she has packed all her stuff from her old apartment including the TV and other appliances. The really big stuff like some pieces of furniture, she just sold to friends there. Anyway, I hope things work out great when she arrives here.

eye problems?

Are you having eye problems? My sight is actually starting to look a little blurry and after a check-up, I was suggested to put on eyeglasses or contact lens so it would be corrected. At least my eye condition is not yet critical. That’s a relief. I know some people who need surgical procedures just so they can see clearly. I’ve even watched a show in TV where they performed lasik surgery. It was pretty amazing since it only took a couple of minutes and the lady who was initially legally blind instantly had her vision improved right after the surgery.

I have read about a certain doctor, Tom Tooma, who has actually done over 60,000 surgical procedures. With his extensive experiences in laser technology he was already able to train hundreds of doctors and has helped manufacturers get FDA approval . He was one of the first doctors who was able to use the Intralase laser. Surely if you’ve got eye problems, Thomas Tooma is one doctor you might want to see. You’ll be in good hands since you’re sure of his abilities in laser eye surgery. So don’t fret in case you have eye problems. There are technologies already invented which can help you out. And of course, we have very able doctors who can carry out the procedures safely.

tactical series

Do you need police gears? Or are you into tactical outdoor activities? You might be interested with the 5.11 Tactical website in case you want to know more about guns or if you want to purchase guns and accessories. They also sell footwear, bags, jumpsuits, gloves, and a lot more. I'm sure if you're into these kinds of things, this website would be such a haven for you.

educational tools

I believe that kids should be exposed to different multimedia educational tools for more effective learning process. This also makes it more fun for children to learn. It makes them look forward to learning since they enjoy it. There are a lot of kids educational games available which can be used as an alternative way of teaching kids. Studies show that this is actually more effective rather than just using straightforward teaching which can easily bore children. This method usually fails to catch the attention of children whose attention span is really short. One should really make use of creative means when teaching children. Computers can be used for this. There are a lot of educational software and math software that can be used wherein children will surely enjoy using. It builds confidence and enhances critical thinking skills. Using these helps achieve learning success! I remember my dad buying us all these different activity books when we were still kids for math and reading which we really enjoyed answering. Now these are even available as software where you can use in the computer which makes it even more interactive and more fun to use. These can be great gifts to give to children this coming Christmas season.

A few more days to go

My birthday is coming up soon! I'm really excited. I hope all my friends I invited can make it. I know some are going to the province since it's a long weekend.

Anyway, I'm excited to cook for my friends. I'm still brewing up the menu for my birthday. I hope everybody likes it.

It would be really nice to do some catching up with my friends. Some I haven't seen for months already. It would be a really great treat to see them again on my birthday.

money! money! money!

I'm in constant search of other ways how to earn money. I would love to invest as much as I can in mutual funds and let the power of cumulative interest works its way. It's just really great that there are a lot of online opportunities that can be taken advantage of in terms of earning extra income. I have signed up to some sites which offers blog monetizing schemes. I hope I can earn a lot from this since cash really comes in handy. I guess I'm just preparing myself to becoming a stay-at-home-mom. I know it's a little to advance to think about it since I'm not yet married (and I'm not yet having a baby). Well, I just love that I don't have regular work hours. I only stay at home and still earn decent money (actually, even more than what I was earning before!) Cool!

my new camera!

I'll be getting my new camera by December!!! I can't wait! My dad has brought me an Olympus Stylus 770! SW Well, 'll actually be paying for it but I just requested him to buy it for me since it's cheaper to buy abroad. Here's the write-up made about the new camera that I'll be getting:

Introducing the world's most durable digital camera — the Olympus Stylus 770 SW. You can drop it (from 5ft), dunk it (to 33ft), freeze it (-10°C/14°F) or even try to crush it (up to 220lbf), and it will still take amazing photos. But the 770 SW isn't all brawn and no brains. It features a bright 2.5" Hypercrystal LCD so you can easily compose, view and share your images underwater or in direct sunlight. Digital Image Stabilization (DIS) creates sharp, blur-free pictures, even if your subject is moving. And the 27 Shooting Modes, including movie with sound, allow you to master any shooting situation.

chocolates

I’ve been getting some inquiries about my chocolates lately, which is really good since its extra income. I do love making chocolates and it’s just a bonus that I earn from it. I’m thinking of making a separate website for it. Hopefully I’ll have time to arrange that just in time for Christmas season. Chocolates are great gifts to give during Christmas. Who doesn’t love chocolates, right?

10th year already!!!

Reposting from the Pisay 98 blog, written by dacs:

Hey folks! Next year is our 10th year out of high school (really?!). This is the time we usually start giving back to Pisay, and the time when we are already expected to make a sizeable contribution for the success of Homecoming 2008.

Let's get together to talk things over regarding our funds (or LACK thereof, actually) and what activities we could have for our 10th year. Doesn't really have to be bongga, but definitely we should celebrate somehow.

Please reply to this post with your suggestion for the DATE AND VENUE of our batch get-together (a lunch or dinner, perhaps?), where we can talk about our plans for Year 10. From your suggestions, we could probably make a poll and let folks vote to settle the details. Let our goal be to have this meeting before 2007 ends :D

Salamat! :)

online casino

Want to play some poker? I’m all in! I really do miss playing poker lately. The last time I think was around a month ago already. I had so much fun then. I didn’t win much but seeing my friends again was all worth it. It was nice hanging around with them again. I know we all are busy and schedules are a bit hectic.

Oh well, I’ll probably invite them for a poker session on my birthday. That would be really nice. I hope I win good money that day. Hahaha! Well, I just want to see them again and see how they’ve been doing. I hope they would all be available on that day.

Well, I have to practice on those poker skills again. I got to sharpen my strategies. It’s not all about luck! There’s a bit of thought process in it. I’ll probably practice on some online casino. You can either play for real or for play money. Which ever the case, it would be a nice brush up on how to play poker.

got bad credit?

Getting a new credit card? Well, don’t just get the first one you see. Try comparing different ones and determine which one would be the best to suit your needs. There are a lot out there offering credit cards even to those with bad credit. Take advantage of their good deals! These can really be helpful with your finances. Learn to search for those who give such great opportunities that will benefit you.

options

Me and my sweetie have been talking about our future lately and what our options are when we get to settle down. Like, where do we live? Do we rent an apartment? Do we stay at their house? Do we buy a condominium? Do we look for a : land for sale and build our own house there? There's really a lot of options but of course each option has a cost connected to it. We're still not yet sure which ones we could afford. Oh well. I hope we get to save enough!
