Explore Manila, the Philippines and the World!

Now is the time to venture into business especially since the year, 2013 has just started. But it’s no feat in putting up one with all the details that need to be done. From planning to making it happen, everything has to be in order. But now that business supplies are all over the internet, shopping for these are easier. Just like the printing business cards supplier that I found online which is called Printing America. They have different types of business cards to choose which means you can choose according to the type of business that you are planning to put up. Will browse more in their website and see if there’s a business card I can recommend to the company that I’m working for right now.

I know its crazy to look for outdoor propane fire pit in this crazy HOT weather in my side of the world, but I also know that my Mom is staying in the US needs one because weather is freezing there! So, I’m going to recommend this fire pit table I came across Firepits.com…

Isn’t it lovely? My Mom said the weather is crazy cold in her side of the world so she would love this fire pit in her house. The handcrafted tile gave this away. Well, since it’s gas infused this is only allowed outdoors! Will have to remind my Mom about this though. It has a hidden control panel with electronic ignition and an 11-inch tile surface area for drinks, etc. I really, really like it. I hope my Mom likes it too.

There are MORE ways to help here! I sure hope we can help in our own way. Let us continue to pray for the typhoon victims.

Nowadays, since it’s tough to deal with our daily expenses and bills, I’m thinking of putting up a business. There are a lot of options but it’s hard to think which one would last. Especially in Manila where people would love to try new things everyday.

It has to be something that people will like for years. If it is retail, which I’ve tried in the province, I’m sure I will get the point of purchase display I saw online. It looks durable and of good quality. I sold small items for tweens and teens. And these store fixtures would have been nice in our store.

But it didn’t work out in the province unfortunately. Now I wonder if it will work out here in the city. Will have to do research about it, make a business proposal and see if it will. Well, I hope so!

Well, that’s my current motto now. After hearing sad news about people getting cancer or terminal illness, it made me realized that life indeed is short. So I thought, what would be the best thing to do to make the most out of our lives? Let’s travel and explore the world more! So I’m planning a couple of trips next year which I will share if these plans will push through (I hope so!).

As for our health, it’s best to take care of it as much as we can. There is a type of cancer called cancer from actos that I’ve read that you get from drinking a diabetes pill. Who would have thought that a pill which would supposed to heal you will caused you a bladder cancer. If you think you are getting symptoms such as frequent urination, pain during urination, and heart attack, it’s best to call the lawyers who are attending to these type of cases. Actos Cancer Lawyers will be of big help for you and your family.

That’s what I wanted to do since last week – to send get well soon gifts to my friends who are sick and some of my kids’ friends who are sick too. I know the feeling when you are sick and don’t know how to make yourself feel better. No matter what you eat you still feel bad. Medicines and “tender loving care” are the only way. And of course, these get well soon gifts are so cute, your sick friend would definitely feel better. The Get Back on Your Feet Cookie Bouquet – 5 Piece is so nice, and so are those Full Dozen Gourmet Dipped Fancy Berries. Oh wow! Perfect for the chocolate lovers out there! I would want one myself if I get sick!

I’m not part of the network group but I’ve always wanted to suggest hiding those cable wires in the office. It looks messy, in my opinion, so I looked for a way to hide those and I came across flex tubing. This is a way to protect your cables and hide it through the use of tubes. There are Colored Split Wire Looms or Flex Tubes in different colors. I like those! These Wire looms are an effective and inexpensive way to provide order and protection to cables around any home and office. You can use this whether it is under a workstation or integrated in a home theater set-up. The nice thing about it is that it is highly flexible and can be use anywhere! With this I can get a sleek, finished appearance in my office by concealing unsightly wires. I’m definitely getting those soon!

When traveling, I always make it a point to update my social network sites. I know some people think it’s a waste of time but my loved ones would like to get an update from me, from time to time. They would know what I’m doing, how am I doing while I’m out of the country and would love to check out my photos too!

There are social networking sites now that focus mainly on your profession. One is Doximity.com that focuses on Doctors. Just like Kristin Markell MD who joined Doximity.com and enjoyed the perks and benefits of being part of this social network. This site allow Physicians to share their experiences so that the other members will learn from them. What a perfect way to spend your free time, enlisting in a social network that will improve your skill as a Doctor.

I had a wonderful weekend! I didn’t have internet connection though but I was able to bond with Hubby and the kids. I guess I appreciated the “life without internet”. Now, I’m excited to work again. I was assigned a task to look for Inviting Company Invitations for our Christmas party this year. I used to make my own invites but since this one is for the company, I would probably buy from InvitationBox.com. They have a lot of options to choose from so I’m going to spend the whole morning checking out which one to get.

That’s my frustration actually. When I travel, I find it hard to control my blood sugar. I always tend to eat MORE when I’m out of town or out of the country. Who can blame me? The food is just great! I couldn’t just pass the opportunity of trying out new food especially when it’s from a different country. So now, I’m looking for a diabetes medicine and came across Actos. I wanted to try it badly but the thing is, I also came across Actos lawsuit. Yes, there is such a thing. When you drink Actos, an oral diabetes medicine, it can lead to serious injuries such as heart attacks, heart failure, and an increased risk of bladder cancer. This can then result in an Actos Lawsuit. So if you think you have these symptoms after drinking Actos, better get a lawyer now.
