Big Changes

>> Friday, September 17, 2010

I was having a chat with my former classmate yesterday and we realized that all those years without communications are really bad because we missed updates on our lives. From the looks of it we really have a lot of catching up to do. When we were in college we’re as thin as sticks but now we both grown bigger. We’re both workaholic that’s why we always missed keeping our body fit. We neglect to do our exercise regimen so my friend likes to try those Diet pills that work without exercise because she’s getting so conscious of her big frame. Anyway she has reasons to be because she’s single and has to look slimmer I suppose. Well I also want to be fit and slimmer but my diet plan has to wait until my work relaxes a bit. I can’t eat light meals when I’m working hard.

Following Dad’s Footsteps

My nephew has started to pursue a career in engineering field and because his school is a four-semester college he will be able to graduate in college younger than others. His five-year course taking up Civil Engineering will be finished in four years’ time thus a strict study schedule is a must. As of my last conversation to him he told me that he’s fairly coping up with the pressure of studies and he has his Dad to teach him whatever he ask because he’s taking up the same career of his father. 

My brother was actually very happy on their enrolment that his eldest son wants to follow his steps even if taking up engineering course is not that easy. Anyway the pressures are not visible in my nephew’s face and I know he will not have a need for the products I read on proactive reviews. Although I don’t regret reading some acne-treatment solutions on the review I’m glad that my nephew has taken care of his skin well. I can just relate what I learned from the review to anyone who needs it. That way I can help them in avoiding some skin diseases.

Some Probable Investments

The country is undergoing major changes now with the new President and the people are hopeful again after some decades have passed. Meanwhile to help the country to improve we must do our own share of good citizenship by paying the right taxes and following mandatory rules from the government. With the kind of economy we now have it’s better to be wise in spending your money as every cents count. It’s better if we can save some money to put on bankable investment. I’m thinking of probable investments that can give us high returns of capital. 

I’ve been hearing about this investment offered by United States Gold Bureau where you can buy silver, gold and other precious metals and have them delivered to you. It can also be safely stored to a bank or you can keep them and wait until it appreciates its value over the years. It can also be a good collection as well because collecting gold coins proved to be a good hobby and tangible investment too.

Abnormal Working Schedule

When I was working for a consultancy firm we had the worst working schedule because we used to work for two or three consecutive days without normal sleep. We usually take a nap for about two hours and then we’ll go back again to work. We’re working on bidding proposals and we worked continuously until submission date. I just can’t figure out why some employers wanted to work on rush days near the due dates. We’re given three weeks allowance to do proposals but until the last week we keep on repeating the work and finalizing only on the last days. 

Because of our abnormal or no sleeping hours our body got accustomed to working overnight and when our schedule went back to normal hours we became insomniac. I was actually finding ways on getting back to normal sleeping habit without using the best sleep aid I found online while browsing through the net. I might have a use for it in the coming days as my sleeping hours now are quite abnormal and shortened.

Some Safety Tips on Driving

>> Thursday, September 16, 2010

My college friend is driving her own car to work when her husband have travels or meetings that will extend up to late nights. She knows how to drive for years now but still not very comfortable on the wheels especially if she met traffic on the road. She only wants to drive on a worry-free road with smooth traffic and nice drivers around. She made me laugh on her story about driving on heavy traffic highway where she thought of leaving the car in the middle because of too much frustration on the way traffic goes. She’s a very peaceful and calm person as I’ve known her for five long years on an everyday basis but sometimes traffic brings out the worst in many people. 

She’s luckier though that in her driving she never encountered gusty winds and heavy rains because it will be tough driving if ever. I remember how drivers struggle through thunder storms when they want to earn during bad weather. The roads are slippery and when the rains get heavy the road seems blurry. Well for problems like that you should have rain guards installed in your car because it cut down the airstreams and raindrops that hamper your travel. For accessories like this you can get it at CARiD.com where you can get all automotive products you want both exterior and interior for a complete styling, performance and comfort.

Anyway driving can be fun too as it has many advantages like the freedom you get on driving your own car instead of getting a cab which is also hard these days. It’s also very useful when you are shopping, visiting relatives living far, vacationing in the rural areas or faraway provinces and sending your kids to school. There are more good things you can get from driving but you should know some important things you should know to avoid accidents on the road.

New Member of the Family

>> Wednesday, September 15, 2010

Now that we have a car again I’m back financing for another member of the family. Yes I include the car when I do our family budget. They say that owning a car is like having another baby in the house. You have to take care of its maintenance so you can use it without trouble especially when you’re travelling through faraway places where houses are at a large distance phasing. Well I also have to ask my brother about our vehicle’s car insurance quote, registration and other important things in the car. We really want everything organized and prepared. We’re just very happy that brother lends his other car to us, the kids were equally happy about this. DH is again back to driving and he’s happy about it.

Remembering Life in the Province

>> Monday, September 13, 2010

I’m not much educated or experienced about riding horses even if I used to ride on it with my brother and uncle. My uncle used to put soft baskets on each side of the horse and tucked my brother and me on each basket so we can go with him on the foot of the mountain near our town. We know if we’re heading on far distance because he would wear his riding breeches and put on his boots before riding.

When I think of my memorable childhood I wish that my kids would also have a vacation in our hometown province so they will experience living in the rural areas. They will surely have some fun swimming in the cold waters of the real rivers and not that of the man-made swimming pools in the resorts. Well my Mom and DH were talking about it last week and maybe we could fit a week’s vacation in our schedule on semestral break.

Looking Forward to Sundays

I’m working a bit faster as I don’t want to sleep late. Tomorrow is our fellowship day and I want to sleep for long hours so I’ll be refreshed and full of life tomorrow. I want to offer thanks to God for giving me bountiful blessings these past few days. I’m always looking forward to Sundays because aside from being our church service day I get to be with the whole of my family with my kids, hubby, sister and MIL.

Lessons Learned

I learned from my friend that she’s taking care of her Uncle that’s suffering from Emphysema. Two of our Engineers in my previous work died from that disease so I know how hard it is to have that kind of disease. Those Engineers that I’ve talked about were both heavy smoker and doctor confirmed that they got if from smoking. Their relatives attested that they can’t be stopped from smoking especially if they have Dutch Master cigars with them. They continued with their habits until the day that they found out that it’s too late to live a normal life with their sickness. Now its lessons learned for all of us there.
