Double Check Please

This morning I got a hard time recovering my password. It happened that I had already taken the opportunity so I had to double time to submit my post before it expires. I almost wasted more than an hour to fix everything. After submitting my post I tried to know my error. And I discovered it. I misspelled something. A single letter that I missed wasted my time so much. A lesson learned that double checking on what you are doing sometimes is very important.

Oh no, you're kidding!

Sometime with in this year, I'm not pretty sure if I heard the news right that there was a proposal that would allow all Barangay Brigades and Traffic Enforcers to carry firearms on their duty. Is it a joke? Many reacted about the news and I'm one of them. I'm not underestimating their capacity and ability to help maintain peace and order in the community. But I really disagree, because these people were only been appointed by the elected Barangay officials and some were only referred to by friends to the on going administration. Most of them, but not all had not gone to proper military and firearms training to carry one. It's not that easy to carry a firearm. An obligation and the national security is always a responsibility. Unlike our military, I know that before they got hold of their service firearm, they sacrifice leaving their love ones, to under go thorough training. And for this, I salute them of taking care of the national security doing their task to the best of their ability to maintain peace and order of the country. It is also an open book that some private individuals are also allowed to carry firearms for personal reasons but they should secure license for their guns and consider the limitations and to abide by the law for some aspects. And who ever proposed the said news, we may advise him to visit an agency to let him know the guidelines and training to under go before acquiring a gun.

My Perfume

I'm using locally made cologne branded " Babyflo" in the local market. My youngest daughter
is also using it. I usually use it outdoor. It's cheaper than perfumes. The scent is refreshing just like taking a bath the whole day. But I noticed that although you smell fresh the whole day you have to spray or use it several times because the scent Scent stays only an hour . So even it's cheaper in price it comes out that it also costly on my pocket. It was Christmas time when my sister gave me a Bvlgari. I really love the scent. It stays longer than our cologne . My kids love it, too. But I occasionally use it because it's expensive. It's unisex I think, because my son and my daughter uses it. I'm not label minded as long as I love the scent I don't care about the price and where the product came from. Any way I don't buy Bvlgari. It's my sister who buys it in Japan and send it to us here in the Philippines.

Bothered Mom

I'm almost half day getting mad at Kathy's 5 day out of town trip. She was supposedly coming home last Thursday but she preferred to stay there for another three days more for a reason she can't explain to me. I keep calling her and texting on her cellphone but there's no reply coming from her. Her auntie Donna sent her Php 1000 to buy flowers and instructed her to bring it to the cemetery where her grandmother and grandfather was buried. She must have done this task this morning as scheduled. But where is she? Ah hope she's doing well and nothing happen to her right now.

Ondoy and Pepeng ; a Warning

Oh my, where are the trees?

After Ondoy, when will we stop abusing Mother Nature?
Filipinos are characterized as patient and strong whatever calamity visits our nation. We have this “Bayanihan " attitude where everyone is doing each share to lend a helping hand in whatever means or simply sympathized to the situation. And I'm proud of it, being a Filipino. September 26, 2009 the most unforgettable day, when the National Capital Region was flooded due to typhoon " Ondoy ". It was indeed horrible to see the cities all over Metro Manila under water. People were crying and screaming everywhere begging for help. Even the government agencies did not know where to start the retrieval operation to help the flood victims, because in just a matter of two hours the water came like a flash. The moment Ondoy pours its rain that morning people just think that it was just an ordinary rain that will stop a short while. But it's not, because it ruins lives and properties unexpectedly. As if like a warrior raging with so much anger and nobody moves to stop it. People watched of what is next. Everyone was running for his own life and some given a chance try to survive others out of danger. Thank God, because in the late afternoon the rain stops. Then after the flood you'll see the raven that Ondoy left. Damage cars, appliances, muddy buildings, everything a garbage to look at. And the most devastating view was dead bodies scattered around, young and old. Then there was a call for donations and relief operations for the survivors. All TV stations did their parts to reach out by all means. But after a week that Ondoy was about to left the country, another typhoon named Pepeng entered the Philippines area of responsibility. This time heating the upper portion of the country. Unlike Ondoy, Pepeng hits the country with less rain but brought a very strong wind. Like Ondoy, Pepeng also caused floods that also damaged lives and livelihoods of the region. Such as rice fields and vegetable plantation. And there's also death recorded after the flood. So many stories, causes of why the country suffers these kinds of calamity. May be we have no one to blame but our selves. May be some cares but there's a lot more who didn't care at all. Philippines is a beautiful place to live with. We were abundantly provided of all natural resources and the greenest forest ever. But where are the trees of our lovely forest? The trees that supposedly preventing the water to run down to the lower portion of our land and that caused flood. Added to what causes the flood are the displaced residents living in the riverside. Building their homes on where makes it hard for the water to flow freely in times heavy rain comes. Clogged drainage might also be sighted. May be these are just few reasons why were flooded like a water world caused by this two typhoons. Ondoy and Pepeng had left the country but the lessons they left on us was very transparent. To take good care of what mother earth had given and provided for us, Filipinos. And as of now there's still flooded areas still need relief. May Ondoy and Pepeng, a warning and be aware not to let this famine happened again.

God's Purpose

Sometimes I'm so tired of questioning, why people exist in this world and to what's the purpose of their existence? To enjoy , to suffer or just to exist and die. May be
I'm not alone asking this questions. And this afternoon I found the answer to my question. Just believe that God do exist and everything he did and created has a purpose. As I viewed the video of the blog I'm following " ISLAND THOUGHTS " The encouraging testimony, I felt that God is in control of everything if you believe in yourself and to listen what God had promised!

The lump loves the worry inside the resident food.

Stomach ache

October 10, 7:30am Korina knocked at my room asking me to bring her to a doctor due to a stomach ache. I told her to go back to bed so she can sleep again and it might that the pain will be gone. But the pain stayed almost half day and this time she's vomiting. I decided now to brought her to a doctor and after explaining the cause of the pain the doctor injected her and let her sleep for a moment. The doctor advised me to admit Korina for farther observation but my girl refused to it, so we go home but I was given a doctor's prescription and advised to brought back Korina whenever the pain never stops. So the night came and I observe what Korina felt. The next day the stomach ache and the vomiting were gone but this time she's having a lose bowel movement hour after hour so I maintained her by giving her hydryte, skyflakes a biscuit brand and a soup from a steam rice to avoid dehydration. After going to the comfort room for eleven times, I gave her a medicine to control her bowel movement. So that night she sleeps okay but the next morning here comes the stomach ache again. So no choice, I had to bring her back to the doctor again for admission. I think this is not a simple stomach ache. So we were admitted but the doctor told me that again it is not proper to give a patient an instant medicine to stop the lose bowel movement because what if the pain was cause by a bacteria? Just give the patient an intake that will not make her dehydrated and as much as possible visit a doctor for some laboratory test. I really agree to what the doctor had said
and the next day we were discharge from the hospital.

A Visit to My Sister In-law

That same day after Kathy left for her trip, I started preparing things for an another trip. It was me, my husband and Korina leaving for my husband's hometown. We will visit one of my sisters-in-law. It was a 42 km. drive away from our home and it will take us two hours to be there. We left at exactly ten in the morning from home but we arrived late for lunch time, due to super road traffic. We rested for a while and ate our lunch. My sister-in law prepared special variety of foods that day because it was her and her husband's wedding anniversary. After several hours I decided to take pictures of her beautiful orchid garden. And look how colorful the flowers are. This is the hobby of Josie, my sister-in-law. And look again that's one of the fruit bearing tree on their spacious yard. We picked the ripe ones and brought it home as gifts for some of my neighbors and relatives. We left at around five in the afternoon and arrived home so tired almost past eight in the evening.

A Hometown Trip

Two important things that a traveler must secure for a trip.
Bags enough to carry a five day out of town trip.

We went to a department store near us to buy a new traveling bag for my daughter, Kathy. She's leaving tomorrow morning for an out of town destination. She will be with her classmates and some of her professor. They're the first batch of three groups to be there, to organize an event as part of their school activity. They will stay there for five days.The contribution paid was so high but it's okay for me because it happened that their school chooses my childhood hometown and it happened that the town is preparing for the " Maskarra Festival" starting today, for one week. I also secured a cash card for her so it will be easy for me to send her money if ever she run out of cash. I hope that the group will enjoy the trip.

Used Cars

i visit wwww.buy your car.com, i found used cars
That was 1997, I have my first car assembled by a friend whom I think had a lot of experienced to do so. I really trust my friend because experienced wise , he had so much of it. It took him almost two weeks to finished the job and I payed him Php10,000 for the service he rendered without a contract signed for both of us. So after that I registered my first car under my name. And now comes the road test. I asked a friend to do the road test because I don't know how to drive a car and at the same time my husband had just enrolled to a driving school to review how to drive because he somehow knows how to, but just forgotten some techniques in driving. I asked my friend to schedule the road test during my husband's free time to allow my husband to go with him. So they both tested the car. During one time of the test my husband noticed of noises in the lower portion of the car but he ignored it. And the next day they drove it again but suddenly it stops running. So the problem arises. I went back to my friend to tell him the problem but he didn't want do his back job. I can't forced him to do it because we have no contract signing before he accepted the job. I just looked for somebody to repair the damaged part and the problem was fixed but another cash out on my pocket. It was indeed an avoidable experience if I only consulted anyone who knows about the dealings of assembled cars. But I was happy then because until now the car is in our position and it helps me a lot of my buy and sell business anytime. In the year 2005, with God's blessings we were able to buy another car. This time a used car. You know what made us decided to buy a used car? Our budget was only good enough for a used one and we bought it from a well to do family and I'm sure it was well maintained by the owner. And besides I loved the color, white. We were the third owner of the car. The seller told me that they sold the white car to us because they want to replace it to a more spacious vehicle. And she told me that she's also buying a used car again instead of a brand new one. Used cars are cheaper than brand new and it's lesser on it's maintenance, she said. But make sure to bring an experienced mechanic to test the engine and other body parts of it to make sure your money's worth.And thanks we never encounter so much trouble with our used car but after two years we decided to sold it because we lost a parking space for it.
