sandals or shoes please

October 29, 2009 By

Naot KaraokeI remember that I mentioned I bought a pair of beautiful red shoes. I’m just not sure if I write it down here in my blog or in my other blogs. Well, it is not my point anyway. The thing is, I am in the mood to go on shopping these past few days. It seems like I have no control over buying things. I’m asking myself, could it be due to the Christmas fever we felt in here. Whatever the reason is, I still want a new sandal like that of Naot sandals.

Here in our hometown, there is not much stores to choose several brands. Unlike in the capital city where there are lots and lots of shoe brands both local and international, I only have three as the most that I fairly like. In some way that is good because that situation control me in overspending. Yet, it makes me feel bad not to get the shoes I love.

website directory submission

October 29, 2009 By

I’m not a newbie in the world of blogging. If I’m not mistaken, I think I have spent at least two years going three this December of my precious time in blogging. I’m not so sure, but I’ve heard that directory submission is the key to website popularity.

Basically, directory submission help the site get indexed to get its way through search engines. It’s a step closer to generative massive flow of traffic to the site. We all know that getting enough traffic is difficult and time-consuming. It takes a lot of effort and like I said time or even expensive. But, submitting the site to directories is a simple way to get noticed by search engines like google, yahoo and MSN.

Hmmm, it sounds interesting. Actually, I’ve heard it before. But, I let hubby deal with all the technical terms the first time I encounter it. That is the reason I still feel I’m new to some blogging terms.

Life is what we Live for Today

October 25, 2009 By

Life is what we Live for TodayJohn is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, “If I were any better, I would be twins!”

He was a natural motivator. If an employee was having a bad day, John was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation. Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up and asked him, “I don’t get it! You can’t be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?” He replied, “Each morning I wake up and say to myself, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood, I choose to be in a good mood.”

Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life. “Yeah, right, it’s not that easy,” I protested. “Yes, it is,” he said. “Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood. The bottom line: It’s your choice how you live your life.”

what men worry most

October 25, 2009 By

Hair loss is the problem of most men. It is usually the worries of most adult, but may sometimes few cases of teens losing their hair have been recorded. There are several reasons as to the cause of hair loss like sickness, poor nutrition, chemical treatments, styles, hereditary, medical treatments and much more. Whatever the reason is, losing hair can be very stressful especially during times when a person is concerned about appearance.

This is the same problem my second sibling has been fighting for years. He started losing his hair when he was 19 years old. And it made him felt very bad. He feels like his world has fallen because it happened during the time where he must look good to attract women. From that moment he started using hair grower treatments and shampoos, which doesn’t have any effects at all. But it never occurred to him to undergo hair transplant. Probably one of the reasons is that he has no money since he is still a student at that time. Or it could be he is just afraid.

Whatever his reason is, I think hair transplant is the answer to his problem. And he no longer has to go abroad. I found a clinic called Nu/Hart that have an office in Manila. Their hair transplant physicians have performed over 30,000 hair restoration procedures with great results around the world. This is great news actually. But, first I have to learn more about their pricing before even suggesting it to my bro. All I know is that he has a number of payment options such as cash, check, credit card or patient financing plans including zero interest programs.

I will just wait until he returns from a month long out of town duty. It’s not good to talk about the idea in the phone, plus it is too costly. Hehehe! I am very conscious with my phone usage although I am using prepaid. Well, that’s it. I still have to do a lot of things.

simple explanation

October 25, 2009 By

Why do we need exit signs? That is the question that struck me when my eight year old brother asked. It was one Sunday afternoon at the mall when he saw and inquires its purpose. I do know the answer, but sometimes it is difficult to answer that kid because of his follow-up questions. He is irritating sometimes. Of course as his big sister, I am compelled to respond to his queries.

I have to keep my explanation simple and I said that EXIT SIGNS are guide toward emergency exit. It leads people out of the building during the event of fire, earthquake or accidents. I think he gets the idea? But he has a follow-up question, which is what emergency exits are? Okay one question is enough. In my mind, this kid will not stop asking questions while we are busy roaming around the mall.

It should not annoy me, but it does. Like I said he has too many questions in just one hour. I’m not a very talkative person and it’s difficult for me to make the explanation simple yet understandable for him. That is one of my weaknesses. Sigh! But, I guess I still have to answer him. Anyway he is still my brother.

In just a single Exit Sign he saw, he was able to ask me at least 10 questions that I can’t refuse to answer. After the 10th question, I surrender. I felt exhausted and I can no longer concentrate on looking around. I asked mom to bail me out, which she did. She then asked my brother to stop asking. And still his answer is “why? I am just asking.” As you can see that is still a question.

Well, at least he stopped. He knows that I am already mad and irritated. But, he is still sweet and he can’t resist asking of anything new to his eyes whenever he sees a chance.

stay healthy through oral chelation

October 24, 2009 By

I think nobody in this world would want to suffer from any kind of diseases. That is why most people are now turning their heads to a healthy lifestyle. But, there are still people who don’t seem to care and only act when they feel there is something wrong in their body. Well, I don’t want that to happen to me.

There are preemptive measures to stay healthy in our lifetimes. One of that is to have a proper diet. A balance diet a meal enables a person to get the nutrients needed to function accordingly. Another one is to do an exercise. A 30 minute exercise a day is sufficient to keep a good blood circulation that carries the needed oxygen and nutrients throughout the entire body. Let’s also include a good rest to the list.

However, even if we do all of those things mentioned above, there are still microscopic pieces of heavy metal that stays in our body. These tiny pieces that came from our environment, our fillings, and our diet are easily embedded inside our body that causes trouble in the long run. The thought of it freaks me out actually because these might be the cause of most health conditions including heart disease and cancer.

To remove these pieces, is the task of oral chelation. It is vitamin formula you take through the mouth that bind molecules, such as metals or minerals, and “chelate”, or remove them from the body. It is then absorbed into the bloodstream and begins to chelate toxic and heavy metals along with excessive mineral deposits. It then cleanses the body’s arteries and veins that increase the blood flow to supply nutrients and oxygen to all critical body areas. That’s it! The process is like that.
