Fashion Statement

>> Tuesday, July 7, 2009

Who wouldn’t be attracted to beautiful jewelries? Many women at least possessed more than three in their wardrobe as it’s part of dressing up and also a fashionable statement. Style differs of course as it depends on the personality of the owner. I go for the simple ones not so glittery and designs are of the minimal value but I like those with high value.

Many of the young ladies now prefer their jewelries with more style than of value. It’s a form of fashionable statement that’s why they can’t go out of their homes without a single fashion jewelry on their body. Nowadays you can see beautiful silver jewelries with attractive designs but very low in value because it’s a safe adornment. Even if their jewelry will be snatched from them it will not be a great loss. Anyway it’s just very easy to buy jewelries because many stores love to sell this kind of adornment as it has a high selling capabilities. You can also buy online and have the convenience of searching, finding, choosing and buying your specific style and designs through online shopping.

My Things Are Packed

As I’ve only two weeks to go before I leave my work I started packing my things and sorted out my files. I’m a pioneer of this company which started in 1999 and officially came into operation selling prepaid cards in 2001 when minor telcos are just starting up some communications’ business. I was employed in another company of my boss and at the same time starting the prepaid card business of BT&T. As I’m the starter employee I have all the files since we started and now that I’m retiring I sorted out the very old documents and stored it in the boxes to file it in our storage room.

Actually I felt a little sadness that all my clients were gone now saved for the few big ones and I suddenly remembered the workloads that I used to have, sometimes missing my break time just to beat deadline. When my small corporate and few carrier clients diminished I felt inactive and wanted new things. As excitement in busy work inspires me I decided to move on to other things that will make my day challenging. Now I’m happy that I found what I want and so I’m leaving my work.

When It Rains…..

My Mom loves to quote most of the time and she carries it until now even if she’ has already retired from her teaching profession. She always has words of wisdom for little things that comes in our lives. Now that I’m having many works lined up for me in my sites and just grab numerous assignments she told that 'When it rains it pours'. And she’s right as I’m having a great time and at the same time a hard time too in finishing my works. My sleeping hours are limited to 4 hours or even less this week and I do work even on office break time. I keep telling myself that it’s ok because I only have less than 2 weeks remaining in my office job and I’m going to rest after I’ve finished with it.

It's Hard to Be Sick

It’s hard to get sick that’s why I’m thinking of ways to avoid it especially for my kids because children are susceptible to sickness especially if it’s airborne. I told them not to miss their vitamin so they can fight common sickness brought about by the changing weather. I always gave them Vitamin C as their resistance for common respiratory diseases that’s very common these days especially the current swine flu which can be transmitted easily.

My grandma used to tell me that an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure and I know she’s right in saying that. It’s tough to acquire heavy sickness that will require the patient to be hospitalized for days because it would be hard on the patient and also to your budget. The kids will not like it sometimes if they’re going to have food supplement through dextrose and sometimes if the patient can’t move they’ll put the catheter for convenience purposes though for some they’re not comfortable with it. Anyway I’ve experienced having catheter and was glad it helped me after my caesarean operation.

Phone Courtesy


I had a phone call from one of the collection agency from a credit card company asking for the whereabouts of our former employee who resigned from our company three years ago and being the HR officer I have to take the call even if the caller is somewhat rude.

Of course he’s wrong and I told my officemates to give the call straight to me if he called again. Good thing when he heard my tone of voice and formal confirmation as per my copy of the person’s quit and claim release he stopped being persistent and didn't call again.

For me handling a phone gives a responsibility on the user to handle it properly. I’ve attended a seminar few years back and it gave us some notes on how to act properly when you’re on the phone, here’s some reminders for everyone:

- Use variety in tone of voice
- Smile
- Answer in three rings
- Ask how you can help
- Be courteous

She's Very Fond of Josh

My Mom reminded me that Josh will have his monthly examination this coming Thursday and she asked for the pointers so she can go through it and review Josh verbally. She wants to practice her teaching profession on my children and even though she has retired from her teaching profession several years ago her teaching abilities has never faded in quality. She’s the only person who accompanies my little Josh in the house and maybe that’s the reason why Josh is showing so much interest in learning things. My Mom would always tell me when I came home from office that Josh never runs out of question and it gave her some laughing moments because some of Josh inquiries were out of his age. She’s very fond of Josh and they enjoy each other’s company.

Personalized Wedding Favors

>> Monday, July 6, 2009

It’s always nice to hear that couples will go to tie the knot or get married. It means the starting phase of their lives where they will dream for a home and for their kids. I’ve always love to remember my own wedding several years back. Hubby and I were really excited and at the same a bit exhausted at the preparations we have to do before the big wedding day. Starting with the gowns, guests list, invitation, flower arrangement down to reception, menu selection, cake design and everything that goes with wedding preparation I can say are all tiring but since we want a nice wedding we did all we can to make it a memorable one.

We were just so happy that my sister, cousins and bestfriend helped me with making unique personalized wedding favors because if I will just do it solely maybe I’ll only buy ready-made giveaways. I had three or four unique designs for different group of guests. When my kids saw some that were left in my cabinet they find it very unique and pretty. Actually we saw some of personalized wedding favors online at The Knot Wedding Shop and were excited to find wide variety of wedding supplies and novelty items there. It will be of great ease to those planning to get married. They can shop online, less stress and saves time too.

My Ice Cream Personality

>> Sunday, July 5, 2009


Your Ice Cream Personality:



You like to think of yourself as a fairly modest person. And it's true that you don't talk yourself up... but you're also pretty happy with who you are.

You are a pretty cautious person. You look before you leap, and you don't leap often. There's a bit of a wild child within you, but it doesn't get out often.

You are a fairly open minded person with a wide range of tastes. You are quite accepting of unusual ideas and people.

You are a natural multitasker. You feel alive when you're doing more than one thing at a time.

You are a serious and contemplative person. You definitely do your own thing in life.

The Ice Cream Personality Test

Oh I really ice cream and so I took this test and was quite happy with the result because it says a lot similar to myself. Funny that it's just a simple funny personality test but it's 90% true!

:Photohunt 168: Pink (Flowers)

>> Saturday, July 4, 2009


I've chosen these beautiful flowers for my entry this week. These are two flowers with different shades of pink but both are equally pretty. I've always loved pink flowers ever since I was a kid because it's so feminine and it exudes an air of innocence just like white ones. The first photo was taken in the garden of St. Audry Learning Center where Josh is studying and the second photo is just over the fence, from my cousin's pots of flowers, nice resources :-) I have another entry at my Beyond Horizons

The Car Connection

I’ve known some friends whose hobby is to collect cars, improve it and when he has used it for some time he sells it. He just has some fascination over cars and he feels good every time he turns a simple car into a fashionable and sleek car. Actually it doesn’t only feel good but it pays as well. As for his own personal car he prefers those seen on car pictures online. He’s always into finding and searching updates on styles and designs for his buy and sell car business.

Just recently he’s been browsing the Car Connection site and he found information and reviews about this super cute 2 door mini cooper with convertible top, the smallest in the US. It’s still the same Mini car as the previous ones but there’s a bit change in roofline and side windows. Now you can have it and choose among some variety of interior design. Anyway he’s just curious but this mini cooper may not be of much usage to him. He just wants it for display and short travel. As I’m very interested by his browsing I tried the site myself and found for myself various reviews on many sleek and beautiful cars. You can read what the buyers have something to say for their cars.

As I browsed more I’ve noticed this best selling Chrysler pride the dodge ram 1500 I know this car because my sister works for a company that distributes Chrysler products in the Philippines. Even if the country is suffering a major economy crisis some individuals can afford to have many vehicles as they wish and this one is great as many people wanted pickups for their field jobs. It’s more applicable than using a car especially on non-urban places. With this one you can be assured of a smooth ride and great help to tow vehicles on the road.

For car enthusiasts this site has a lot to offer in terms of showcasing your favorite models of cars and in bringing awareness to public and would be buyers what the car has in store for the buyer. It provides tips, photos and full reviews on style, performance and quotes. All reviews on each and every car featured in their site will be of great help to the consumers. The last I read a review on is the ford f 150 which is also familiar to me as I like pickups though I’m just a novice when in terms to cars. Well there’s no doubt about the selling capability of this pickup especially now that it has been improved. So with the current update on this pickup with an improved box frame and superior performance in towing and hauling you can be sure you’re in safe travel. For those interested in cars and seeing reviews on their most wanted models you can visit their site and see for yourselves.
