Connection Resumed

I’ve been lagging behind some meme or at least if I had posted them sometimes I was late in submitting them because of the limited power we have here in our place. This is due to the recent power plant fire which affected not only us in Rizal but also in some Metro Manila cities and towns. I’ve been laughing with my Mom because last week I’ve been running after due tasks and when I was on a relaxed mode and quite finished with my tasks here comes connection and power interruption again.

Today my internet connectivity was resumed which gave me a happy smile as I don’t have to go to other place or rent on internet café. It’s dangerous for me to use other PC especially public PC as there’s always the possibility of exposing my sites and passwords to hackers. So when I rent PC I only open sites that I need most to be safe. Now I only have to monitor the power interruption schedule as it was scheduled on a 4-hour rotation among affected areas. Good luck to me as power I think will be out anytime now!

Understanding Other Languages and Cultures

In this present economic crisis where companies suddenly closes out and regular jobs becomes unstable. Even large companies declare financial losses and multinational corporations look for cheaper labor elsewhere. Most stay at home mothers started to look for jobs that will give them extra income to help their husbands in bringing food to their family’s table. As they need to stay at home to look for kids it’s very appropriate to find online jobs like that of a bilingual and professional translator, you just have to visit Translia and sign up for the job. It would certainly help in augmenting the family’s income.

Language is a very important means of making communications better and without communication the world will not be a better place to live because there will be misunderstanding and confusion. We all know that each country has its own language and even though we uses English as the international language not all people know how to speak and write English. It’s good if you know two or three languages but there’s nothing to worry about if you don’t because there’s a website for translation services.

Translia brings together translators and clients needing translation. It helps those who know different languages to enter a job in the field of online translation services and it also bridges the gap of miscommunications between two people speaking different languages. It will be easier now to understand books in foreign language and to learn the different cultures of many countries. It’s going to be an exciting time to learn and educate ourselves as the site offers free translation. This special site will surely assist and help you in translating needed materials.

Power Plant Fire

I was on a chance blogging this time as there has been a power plant fire in the town next to us in Taytay, Rizal. This happened last Wednesday late night while I was on our bible study in Kamias. Brownouts were experienced in almost whole Metro Manila and Rizal and I also had problem with my internet connection as some SmartBro base stations were affected including the station where I and my friend JennyL were connected. I had to go over to my brother and cousin’s house to use other internet provider but that failed also. Internet café on next town solved my problem. Anyway as I’m working on limited time and connection I wasn’t able to return the visits of my ec droppers and visitors. I’ll visit you again guys when things normalized again. Thanks for the visit anyway!

Shedding Some Pounds

I’ve been sorting my things and clothes and found an old one which used to be my favorite but have been stored in the cabinet because I’ve grown so big. Now after the pressures and tight schedules we’ve gone through I think I lose some pounds because the blouse suddenly fits. It used to be so tight on me so I guess I was able to shed some pounds for the last few weeks. I planned to start my diet plan a month ago and thought also of using fat burner also. But now that I learned how to lose pounds by having fruits on dinner I think I’ll pass that of. Anyway If I should use fat burner I still have to consult and seek my doctor’s advice.

Get the Most Cash from Your Gold Coins

I collect old coins since I was in primary grade and now that I have kids of my own I let them see the coins that we used when we were young. It helped them to imagine the younger days we had then. Actually the hobby started when my Mom gave me a coin that’s dated way back before I was born and I got excited about owning an old coin. Since then every time a coin was replaced by the government by a new one I keep some for myself to add to my collection.

One of my officemate once told me that one of my silver coin collections was being bought at a very high price and she asked me if I want to sell mine. I’m not ready to part with my collections so I didn’t take the money but I was glad to know that my collection was appreciating its value. Now my collection hobby became a little investment too. It’s a small reassurance that if thing get tough and I’ll be needing money I’ll have something that I can fall back on.

For those who want to make money out of their long time collections now is the time as you can sell gold coins to Refinity.com By selling your old gold coins you will not only have money but you can also help protect our planet because Refinity.com is an eco-friendly company that buy old coins and refine it for other usage. It was known to help minimize mining thus reducing the risk of environment hazard. By the way they also buy precious metal and jewelries so if you have collections of those things too you can visit their site and get the most cash out of your collections.

Heads or Tails : Build

It's Tuesday once again it's time for our Heads Or Tails again.... The theme/prompt for THIS week, October 6, is: HEADS - "Build"

As I mentioned in my ten on tuesday in my other blog I want to BUILD a vacation house in my hometown in Laguna (Philippines) where the whole family could spend lazy weekends and at the same time visit our close relatives there, side of my Mom. I can still remember our happy childhood there in the province running in the fields surrounded by fruit bearing trees, playing in the small river and enjoying the day with picnic basket. I want my children to experience life in the province with fresh air and simple life even on weekends only.

Mesothelioma Doctors

Sometimes your work which is the source of income to sustain your family’s need can be a hazard to health. If you’ve worked for a company that doesn’t think of employees’ welfare you may be subjected or exposed to sickness that can take your life. This is true for those workers who worked and have been exposed to asbestos in their working environment. The manufacturer of asbestos was very much aware of the health hazard of asbestos but they didn’t protect their workers thus it led them to mesothelioma, a rare cancer which is acquired from exposure to asbestos. I just hope that these owners have the ability to find good Mesothelioma doctors to guide, care and treat Mesothelioma patients. Patients should get the best experienced Mesothelioma physician in order to give the proper treatment to those victims of asbestos.

:PH 181 : Words

These words say a lot about the kid wearing this shirt. He's very fond of this shirt because as he told me it includes me. The shirt was one of Josh' favorite as he believe it's true :-) because some people told him he looks like me. Here he posed for me last year when I'm testing the shots from my new point and shoot camera

Back to Normal

At last we were able to bring back our appliances, sofas and kitchen back to its usual order, I’ve been very tired with sorting, cleaning and tidying things up. I’m just glad that our house looks like a home now when we finally set things up. There’s just one advantage and lesson that the storm has left us, we should not have so many unnecessary clutter in the house. We just have to let go of old things so we’ll be free from too much house accessories that hinders our movement when bad situation comes. Now that we have cleaned the house upside down we discarded our old sofas and some other things that others can put to good use. It’s a nice feeling when everything has been arranged and I just have to check this Rocky Patel that my friend is asking me. He asked me to help him check the promotions attached with it, it's just part of his assignment with his boss.
