I need a friend to talk to

30 Aug

Talk to me. I am a very talkative person before. I always tell stories. Lately, I tend to keep it to myself. But I think it is bad for my health and my mind.

Well, maybe one reason also is that I do not have a friend to talk to these days. Yes, a real friend who I know would listen to me. A friend who knows that I would obsessed about things until I get tired, then I would be able to finally stop and forget about it. You know, I observed that I have to talk about my problem to someone and gets his or her opinion about it. Yes, I am seeking comfort and once I am satisfied with what that person I am talking to will say, then I will have peace. Crazy, huh!

I have friends. They are just a few though. It is hard to trust anyone these days, you know. Your friend may be your friend but he or she could also be a friend to your enemy. Another thing, I really do not like to bother my friends because they also have their own problems that for all I know might just be bigger than what I am having right now.

Well, what is bothering me? I am just insecure about things. I fear that I might lose my job anytime or I might lose a lovedone anytime. I am also insecure about my position in the society. You know, all of my batch mates are doing well in life. Yeah, I saw in Facebook and Friendster. That makes me more depressed. Well, I am happy for them and sad for myself. Discontented? Oh, I hope my husband will not be able to read this. Yes, I am discontented. But not with him. I am discontented with myself. I feel that I could have done better in the past years. Now, I know, time is GOLD, eh.

Enough of my ranting. I should clear my mind of any worries. God actually gave me all the answers already. I have to TRUST him. Kayo na po ang bahala, Lord.

Unique experience

30 Aug

Vacation! That is what I really need right now. You know, to have a breath of fresh air from all of what is happening around me. People have been to usual destinations that is why I am thinking of romantic vacation riviera maya. I have not seen pictures of any of my friends in that place. Well, they are missing a lot. I read from karismahotels.com that there are different kinds of beach resorts there. Well, maybe I would like one that would be for couples. My husband and I should rekindle our bond and what a great way to that in a romantic vacation in Riviera Maya.

Number one spot

29 Aug

I would like to thank my friend for hosting this blog. Well, you know, it is really better if your site is under a paid host. You have more control and of course, you have the right to complain in cases of downtimes and other technical difficulties that you might encounter. Actually, I wanted before to do it on my own and search for the good web host for this blog. I read a lot about the top web host companies. Funny but one review is different from the other. Maybe because of different sources and different types of web hosts. To each his own as they say. For example, one web host is considered best in terms of its customer service and technical support. Moreover, it creates a balance on the money you are going to pay for it and the specifications that you require. I think before that it is complicated. I am glad that there are web sites like http://www.wpdesigner.com/ that could really help you with the decision.
Wow! Free domain and unlimited disk space? Usually, these web hosts just differ in price but in service, almost the same? Then better get the testimonials of your friends who already tried a particular web host and learn from it. As of me, I just let my friend host for me. It is a good thing that the web host where she enrolled this blog is at the number one spot!

The decision

29 Aug

It is my rest day once again. I got an offer from a financial institution for me to avail the money and its benefits early if I would like to. I am thinking about it deeply and asked my husband about it. Well, the second floor of the house is long overdue. We might just decide on it right now. I am excited! What tile would I use for the bathroom upstairs? I got a porcelain tile in mind that would really look nice. I just do not know if it could be used for floors or walls. I still have ample time to finally bite the offer. Deadline is on October 12.

Umbrella, umbrella

28 Aug

I spent my fifteen minute break looking for the perfect umbrella. Well, it is actually my friend who has fascination with umbrellas. Your guess is right, she was able to buy one. Me? None. I did not find the one for me. I have many umbrellas already. I just want another one that I could put inside my bag and bring all the time. Yes, three folds type and automatic. We saw another friend inside the store and she suggested that I just buy from the mall. So, I did not buy one.

Time to go home. Thank goodness it was not raining as I caught a jeepney ride. However, upon reaching Philcoa for my final ride,  it rained hard. The street was flooded ankle height. Uh,oh! I should have bought an umbrella. Moreover, I should have brought one of my big umbrellas!

When I got home, I immediately took a shower. I got flu last time that I got wet in the rain and did not take a bath.

Gold coins as investment

27 Aug

The last talk of the President of our company was really alarming. He said that the second half of the year is not that good and since we are on the second half already, he asked us if we think there would be enough time to reach our target. I was really afraid.

Where could I go if ever? If only I could find rare gold coins on my way home then everything would be alright. I read from the web that rare gold coins are valuable especially if the source is Monaco Rare Coin company where the rarest of gold coins could be found. Now, I have an idea! Whatever money I could get from the force retirement, I shall invest in gold coins.

It is in the performance

25 Aug

The performance of a car is very important. How to maintain a good performance? That is through car maintenance. One thing that I am very particular of is the temperature inside the car. Of course, I would like a cold air intake. Make sure that the Air Filters, Air Cleaners & Intake System of the car are perfect in shape.

Speaking of car parts, how often do you check them? well, if you buy your automobile from an authorized dealer, sometimes, it comes with a free service for a certain period of time. What if it had lapsed already and you really have to pay for it? Sometimes, we would just like to buy the car parts on our own and hire the service of a trusted mechanic, right?

We do not have our own car yet, as it is obvious, I am just a commuter, huh! But, I am starting to read about some car information for future use. Who knows? I might just win the lottery!

The old car

23 Aug

My friend applied for car owners’ association membership. No offense meant but his car is old. i thought that only new cars or slightly used cars would qualify for such membership. Oh, my discriminatory mind. Anyways, since his car is old, he is being able to get the most of the services being provided by the club. Oh, how many times that his car had to be towed because of machine problem or flat tires and all kinds of problems an old car has. The premium that he is paying is all worth it.

How about motorhome towing? I searched for it in the internet and found Good Sam RV. What I like most about the service they provide is the roadside assistance. They have mechanics that could go right where you are and you do not have to go to a repair shop anymore. Now, that is what you call a premium service!

Getting the feel of social networks

23 Aug

Okay. Did I waste almost two and a half hours browsing thru social networks? Well, I am a member of Friendster and got some friends there. I tried Facebook a while ago. Actually, after reading a post from Sasha-says, I was just curious of what Facebook could offer. I have been a member of facebook a long time ago but I just tried it to be “in”. Ha,ha,ha,ha! Well, we all have to be updated.

So, I was able to upload more pictures in my Facebook account. I was able to find more friends too like friends way back during Elementary days and relatives abroad. Then, I realized, I am not a friendly person after all. Well, I got only few friends in my list comparing it to others who have more than 50 or even a hundred. The thing is, I could not add a friend who is not really my friend or who I think might really view my profile. You know, having friends in the real sense of the word. But, I am very open to have new friends. Yes, I would like to have many friends. I think that I am in a very limited space in this part of the globe. I would like to widen my horizons and meet many people and learn things.

Anyways, I did not see much difference with Friendster and Facebook.

Smart is Simply Amazing

22 Aug

For me, Smart is Simply Amazing. It is the best provider of mobile services and internet connection. Recently, I just got a very nice HP printer at a discounted price through its SmartBro retention promo. Moreover, payment mode is installment. I could pay it in a period of twelve months. I really love the printer. Thank you, Smart.

I also applied for Smart’s Gold Lite Plan last June. Imagine, you could have a postpaid plan by just presenting your ID. Simply amazing. Moreover, the rates are really affordable. Smart to Smart calls are only P2 per minute. Plan 300 even comes with free SMS thus you really get your money’s worth.

What is making me stay with Smart is really its service. I am sure that I would be connected anytime anywhere in the real sense of the word.

I also believe that Smart has the best people. And they listen… As consumers, we just have to tell what we want and if it is workable, then Smart would surely do something about it.

Smart has a long list of promos that every subscriber could enjoy. There is the unlimited call for only P100 for 5 days and only 500 for one month! It is available for both prepaid and postpaid subscribers.

Smart is really the best.
Smart means service.

Let us all remember that if not for Smart, then there would be no mobile phone at your hands.
Smart started it all.

There is more to come, I believe.
Smart is innovative and the other companies only follow. So why go for copycats?

As of Smart’s customer service, I think that Smart provides the best service compared with any other company. It has a dedicated 24/7 Hotline, *888. All of the people there are polite and knowledgeable. There are also other mediums where you could get in touch with Smart. You could also send an e-mail to them.

And… of course, the billing department, the ones that would call you when you have a dispute, rest assured that they are there to help and to educate so that whatever it is that you could be disputing would be resolved and would not happen again.

Smart, simply amazing. For the service of all!
