Blue Sky.

24 vs 26.

Sometimes, I wish that I have more hours added in my day. I say this because no matter how long a 24-hour day is, I always ended up missing out a lot of things and several tasks undone. Makes me realize how extremely busy my life is.

Looking at this blog now saddens me that I’m no longer able to serve the purpose and reason why I had this in the first place. That is to explore further and broaden my creative side through photography. It really is saddening to see the home page now only having one photo and to make it worse, it’s not even me who captured it. The directory submission efforts I did for this site long time ago in every weekly photo meme I joined have now also become useless.

It’s a shame that this is a photo blog without photos. Tsk tsk.

I know, my reason of being so busy with my online writing gig is not an excuse.

But then again, I’m no superwoman. I don’t have the super powers to think and write faster than the ray of light.

So I guess, just a wild, random thinking..perhaps if I’m given let’s say 26 hours in a day, I’d be able to accomplish more.

Fit and Muscle Toned.

It’s Friday once again and for the husband, it’ll be another basketball weekend. Aside from signing up to a workout session in their office’s gym, he’s also playing in a sponsored basketball league here in our place. Yes, he’s that determined to bring back the glorious days of his youth when his body was well fit and muscle toned. In fact, he’s also thinking about hgh supplements but we’re not that familiar yet so we have to research further about it first. He has heard positive feedback though from a few friends so it must be really good and effective.

Butete.

Just one of the husband’s magnificent shots when we went to Manila Ocean Park for the little one’s birthday trip. I find this fish really enchanting. I’m amused by his round, huge belly and keeps me in wonder if it’s needing some hemorrhoid pain relief when expelling the contents and wastes. By the way, this fish is called a fish puffer which belongs to the Tetraodontidae family that includes its big-bellied cousins: the balloonfish, blowfish, bubblefish, globefish, swellfish, toadfish, toadies, honey toads, and sea squab. They’re pretty dangerous and usually poisonous so eating them can really be harmful and for some, even deadly.

Just an extra trivia, too, this is more commonly known in Tagalog as Butete. So now you know where the word you usually describe a big bellied man originates, huh?

No Time For Sickness.

And there goes the “scrollable” load of work again. I stayed up late last night to finish a huge number of them and cut the initial roster by 50% but my boss just probably trust (and love) me that much that’s why he’s giving me more this morning. I’m not complaining though, in fact, I appreciate and love the tremendous workload. I’ll just make sure to take the new vitamins for women that my doctor newly prescribed me so I can cope up with my work stress. And if I may add, stress brought about by my small brat’s tantrums. Sometimes, I can really feel the burden and I just hope that my body will not take its toll on me and make me sick.

“If I Were A Boy”.

I noticed this morning that I’m starting to have zits all over my forehead. Then when I scratched my back, I felt little bumps over there, too. But I’m not worried and it’s not something that’s needing the best acne treatment just yet. My calendar says that it’s the time of the month and Aunt Flo is about to come. So that explains why. It’s further characterized by my voracious appetite for three days now and rapid mood swings. Oh well, I just hope that she passes by gently because I have so much to do in the next coming days. I’ve got no time to entertain discomforts. These are the times when I feel like singing Beyonce’s If I Were A Boy song. :p

Waiting For “The Expert”.

I can’t wait for the husband to get home because there seems to be a problem with our internet connection that has been intermittent since 12 noon. The server (to which my laptop and all other computers in the pre-school’s room) is seemingly working fine. So I guess the problem has to do with either the hub, the KVM switch, the router or any other connecting and cabling device. The husband’s the sole expert when it comes to these things so I wish that he gets home real soon. Just using my Globe Tattoo for now and it’s kinda slow for surfing.

Fulfilling One’s Passion

I was supposed to start working on a big online project but I had to set aside it for the mean time to help a dear friend fulfill her passion. She’s into hairstyling and has the hand for prettifying people through makeups. However, she feels that her knowledge and skills aren’t competent enough yet to venture on her own salon business. That’s why she’s asking me to help her find an accredited cosmetology school within the metropolis. She’s still working full time so she’s preferring for a school that’s flexible in terms of schedules. I found one option just near our village however, I don’t think that it’s as advanced as the Regency Beauty Institute in the US. But nevertheless, any training will be very much appreciated by my friend who’s so desperate to start in this career.

Manny Did It Again.

Manny Pacquiao did it again. I find his match against Joshua Clottey boring though because the latter did nothing but cover his face throughout the game and very seldom that he threw punches. It’s as if the Pacman was just on a sparring training with someone else. How I wish Clottey gave it a challenge to make the match worthwhile to watch. Even his coach instructed him to take risks, or else, they will go home lost which exactly what happened. As for Manny, well, his pride wasn’t tainted as he’s still the champion. Actually, whatever the outcome would be, both boxers are winners in terms of riches. They totally do not need to seek employment in the corporate world because their winnings are enough to buy thousands of mansions and businesses and make them rich for a lifetime. So to the ladies out there who wants easy access to millions, go and find a boxer to marry. LOL.

Curtailing The Dangerous

Any kind of addiction is dangerous whether it be drug, alcohol, sex, gambling and even shopping (Yes! my dear shopaholic girlfriends). The detrimental effects of these are very damaging and can be life threatening even as with the case of drug and alcohol addiction. One’s reputation is at stake and may even result to loss of honor and even riches like in the case of Tiger Woods when companies cut sponsorship ties with him following his illicit affair scandal. Now his shady sports career entails uncertainty to his future.

There will always be hope in such instances. Time is of the essence so appropriate corrective actions must be taken upon immediately.

If you know of someone who needs assistance in undergoing an addiction treatment, refer them to Passages Malibu. See how can this Malibu, CA based rehabilitation facility be instrumental in combating any addiction through their effective holistic approach. Each of their rehab program is tailored with effective techniques to suit the varying needs of every individual and achieve maximum results. The Passages Malibu Pictures on their flickr account will show how the treatment is more of like a pampering therapy rather than a stiff and strict medication (such as in hospitals). Their facilities are breathtaking and it’s as if just a vacation haven. One wouldn’t think that he’s a prisoner of some sort. Perusing the Passages Malibu blog will yield more helpful information and reference about their holistic services. Curtailing dangerous habits must be addressed the soonest while there is still time.

Gold Coins Buying Tips

There has been a remarkable gain of Euro over the US Dollar so this means that gold is on the rise and it’s not impossible that it will duplicate its January 11 high record of $1,151.40 closing value or even greater in the days to come. So if you’re getting enticed to try out precious metals trading, here are some useful information I got from the web while researching about gold coins.

1. buy gold coins depending on your needs. A premium mix variety of pre-1933 European and American coins is a good choice if you are interested in a long-term asset preservation.
2. buy gold anytime you feel the need.
3. notwithstanding the world economy status, the gold remains valuable in itself. That is why it is considered a bedrock.
