Viewsonic Monitor

I noticed that my PC is getting slow. It’s a couple of years old already perhaps more. I can see that the monitor has some sort of line like a thin strip from the left corner. I see this often on a broken cell phone LCD after an accidental fall. If ever this gets worst, I would like to get a viewsonic monitor for replacement.

Career: Sales Jobs

Since graduating from college, I have always wanted to get my first job. Until I got married my chances are getting thinner. LOL! I really wanted to try working as if motherhood isn’t enough work. Well, I want to see life in a different perspective other than taking care of family. Time comes; I would love to venture in to the world of getting a career, perhaps checking in particular on sales jobs if I don’t really get one in line with my degree. Oh well.

Medicare Supplement

After hubby got sick of pneumonia, he decided it’s about time to apply for Medicare. He chose not to get a health insurance due to his age which can cost us a lot of money. I and my son have health insurance which he thinks is better for us. With that alone, we have to pay every month and could become a burden if it were the 3 of us somehow. He thinks taking advantage of this privilege is just right so he can get a medicare supplement as well.

Fire Engine Toddler Bed

I had setup a fire engine bed yesterday after taking a crib apart for my son. It was rather time-consuming but worth all the time. We are lucky that in my hubby’s family, we get hand me downs when it comes to our son’s clothing and baby stuff even before he was born. Until now, we get new bags of used clothes and toys. The fire engine bed is the biggest so far second to the crib but the crib was harder to setup since I had to do it by myself. I tend not to wait for any help. That’s me. I get too anxious when it comes to putting things together. Anyway, this fire engine bed sure saves us a lot of money. And for the price, I am thankful enough we didn’t have to buy it ourselves.

Product Features

* Molded plastic fire engine toddler bed
* Holds standard crib mattress (sold separately)
* Working night-light
* Includes mattress support
* Minimal adult assembly required

Price: $599.99 at Amazon

Meet Her Victory Hair

Are you a certified flirt? A normal person does flirt. In one way or another, someone takes a simple if not desperate measure to get noticed by the person they love or like. I have a story to share. Not mine, but of someone I know. This girl is working in an internet café and on her free time she goes online on a dating site checking if she got contacts from her dream guy. She met someone from the US. Not in person just yet and perhaps never will.

She fell in love with him. Little does she know another guy from Canada she met in person is eyeing on her exotic beauty. She has this long black shiny hair that captivated him. Instead of waiting for this online date to see her in person, this other guy present at the moment changed her mind and everything that goes around it. She decided he is the one. This caring, generous soul in the person of this stranger won her heart swiftly.

And now they’re engaged. Well, this is a story of my own cousin. She definitely achieved Victory Hair. She used to say it’s taking so long to find the right guy she had to look through the internet wishing for someone from thousands of miles away to notice her. And there comes his prince charming, which was pursuing a neighbor and noticed her instead. Oh well, sad for the other characters of the story (the neighbor who apparently has a local boyfriend and the other guy with whom she really loves) but something’s telling her she has to seize the ‘now’ for some personal reasons. I just hope and wish for the best of them.

What could be in her that made her mama proud? Is it the hair? Probably it is. I would guess it’s the Extreme Style by VO5. She had been using this hair care product for quite sometime already. Since learning the use of the Internet, she learned that there is this game online in which you can play called Ultimate Flirting Championship. It’s an interactive game where you will be judged on how flirtatious you are. You could chat with the other person too that is taking the challenge. Would you try it? I suggest you better do in order to achieve the Victory Hair you’ve been dreaming of. She just did.

Material World

I was just ranting and raving on my other blog how people in this country acquire stuff and even want more when most of the time they find it hard to get rid of them sometime in their life. I can see why my husband doesn’t appreciate those who are very materialistic. Some of the rich people in this country do have too much of everything they can afford. In reality, it takes a toll on them. They can become slaves to their own possessions. They sure do have to work even harder just to keep up with their lifestyles. Oh well.

Worst Pick-up Line

Sometime in a woman’s life, a man will try to pursue her with pick-up lines that suck. Not just from strangers or someone they personally know. How about a friend? When it’s your good old friend? The worst pick-up line I have heard from this person was, “I know you love me. I can tell by the way you wave your hands at me when you say, hi. Will you say it to me?” What!? So I answered, “I know you’re a friend. A good one indeed but waving at you doesn’t mean anything than just plain ‘hello’ and ‘how are you’. I love my friends but you sound really strange right now.

That was definitely a hair-raising moment! Thank goodness he’s happily married right now and has two kids. That experience deprived me from achieving a “Victory Hair” for a bit. Well, what does that mean anyway? Victory Hair is when you really worked hard on keeping your hair fresh looking and sexy in style, and then someone you like or have a big crush on notices you and the rest of the mystery is history. BAMMM! You’re crowning glory needs the brush once again. If you want to get tips on flirting with the help of your beautiful hair, you should play the Ultimate Flirting Championship game at Extreme Style by VO5.

Digital Macro Photography by Ross Hoddinott


Since buying the macro lens, before I even got it I really wanted to learn more by reading. I found this book for digital macro photography that I think will help me. I have so many things to learn and reading is just one of the things that will guise me somehow besides practice of course. This book has a pretty decent review so might as well take it from the people who got this already. I have it up on my wish list at Amazon. I will definitely be checking it out.


Product Description

With a close-up camera lens, shutterbugs can capture a landscape in a water droplet, a dragon’s face in a dragonfly, an alien planet in a backyard fungus, or a futuristic civilization in a computer circuit board. The magic field of macro photography comes alive through digital cameras and Photoshop programs, as simple instructions combine with jargon-busting tips to demonstrate each essential technique. More than 200 full-color photos and 750 illustrations showcase the possibilities for making spectacular images with ordinary equipment. Besides ideas for making framed photos, special sections show how to create greeting cards, stationery, and other practical items and gifts.
Price: $12.21
