Massage please...

After an all day's work, there's never been better than a full body massage. I'm really addicted to massages. Everytime I come home from work and lay in our bed, I would ask Randy to give me a soothing massage. And he never failed me in keeping my body relaxed while he do his massage techniques. But lately, I've been thinking of these massage chairs that we keep on seeing in the department stores. We even saw one in my uncle's house in Los Angeles.

So, I've been thinking of buying one of those massage chairs. Well, as one of our options, here's the Massage Chairs by Human Touch. Just looking at their chairs, I already feel the soothing relief that these chairs will give me and my husband. They have this capability to follow the contour of your body and hit the tight muscles and sore you've been wailing about.

I actually tried sitting on one of their chairs at the nearest "Sharper Image" shop 2 weeks ago. And wow, it indeed gave me that relaxing feeling. It just so happens that we still don't have our permanent house now. But once we got, maybe I should try and buy one. Let's see...

You can definitely see the world in $8!

Last year, I had my spectacles for almost 3 years replaced. Just for the frames, I had to pay almost $250 (with some amount slashed because of their pre-winter sale). Then for the lenses, I had to pay $80. In total? A whoooping $330 just for the spectacles. (If I would tell this to my father, he would kill me, for sure...that is if I would be begging him for the money to buy this, hehehe.) Well, thanks to my *then* company..they shouldered a part of the lump sum amount.

But now, I've been planning to buy my husband his new set of eyeglasses. Yes, we're both wearing artificial eyes (if you would call it that way). But then, I couldn't afford to spend that fortune at this time just for his specs. Not because it's not for me...but somehow, I came to realize that I could have bought a cheaper frame/lens.

Especially now that I heard about Zenni Optical: Sell Rx Glasses $8 with case!, maybe I would try to visit them one of these days! What's $8 compared to the hundred dollars people spend for their specs? It's quite unbelievable...but why not try it! The reason why they offer cheaper prices is because they're selling their own manufactured frames directly to the customers.

Are you a real estate agent?

When I was still young (and I'm not saying that I'm too old now in saying that) I can still remember my mother struggling hard in organizing her clients, meetings, trippings, commissions, contacts, etc when it comes to her real estate profession. Yes, my mother had been a real estate agent for at least 5 years. The industry was doing very well at that time (not sure if it's still booming now). When I was still a kid, I can remember that my mother kept on tagging us (with my siblings) along in her trippings. We would reach almost all towns in the southern luzon area. My mother was soo busy then.

She was soo busy dealing and organizing the needs of her clients. Too bad now that she's no longer in the real estate industry, a particular software has emerged to help these real estate agents to organize their itineraries. By using the real estate software in this link real estate software, the agent would be able to organize his contacts, trippings, and other related stuff. He can even create flyers and letters thru the software. And what's also good is that the purchase price of the software is just a one time fee of $149 -- so there's no need to worry about any monthly maintenance fee! What's $149 when you can keep a well-organized records of all your clients and would make your time be maximized by gaining more clients?!?

Being a neophyte in web hosting

By professional certification, I am not in anyway related to Information Technology. However, due to emerging financial issues and scandals (those who are also speaking the same language as mine would remember the Enron scandal revealed in late 2001), my profession has become more challenging and now encompass the IT aspect of every business process. This is where my current job comes in - being a Systems Validation Consultant/Auditor.

However, eventhough I am somehow engaged in some IT stuff, I can still say that I'm ZERO when it comes to network and web development. Last year, I started studying/learning some basic facts about web dev't. That is for the purpose of building our wedding website. However, it took me months before learning the full knowledge about these stuff -- so I just decided to build our wedding website using the wedding announcer where it's free and they already have templates. So I stopped learning the web hosting.

However, now, my desire to learn more about web dev't suddenly came back. And I no longer want those "built-in templates" to have. I want to design my own habitat in the cyberspace. I'm planning now to have my own website -- built and designed by me. But for this to come to reality, I need a host to publish my site. For that, I'm currently using web hosting choice to help me choose for the right and affordable host. They have fields available in their site where you can key in your specifics to find the right host for you -- considering your bandwidth and disk space requirements. This function I think would be very helpful for me since I can be flexible on my requirements.

Vengeance is now finally yours!


Almost all of my "friends" have known me as a "fighter". I usually fight against anyone who's depriving me of my rights. But there are times that I can do nothing...especially when she/he has all the control of the situation. Sometimes, I plan to have revenge... bwahahaha...

Okay...it's getting scary now...but what I'm trying to say here is that we have our own moments of revenge. Sometimes we are guilty of hurting others primarily because they also have injured us in one way or another. Yes, it's a sin. But everybody's guilty of that. But we cannot deny the fact that the world is filled with nasty, obnoxious, and repugnant individuals... and of course, you won't just sit in one corner and let them destroy you. You're extremely hopeless in that case!

As I was browsing the net to look for the next movie to watch (since we're having another Pex EB...yahooo), I chanced upon this movie, "Sweeney Todd".

Visit Sweeney Todd in Myspace

The movie is about a barber, Benjamin Barker (played by JOHNNY DEPP) who had been separated from his family for a very long time just because of the lust of a certain judge. After several years, he was able to return to his home in England with a revenge in his heart under the pseudonym, Sweeney Todd. He wishes to regain his family together and penalize the judge who brought chaos to his life and to the society who made their lives miserable. He has been killing people and his accomplice, a pie shop owner Mrs. Lovett, uses the corpse of his victims in making pies... ewwww!

Related to the movie, there's this link where you can confess the revenges you have made in your entire life. It really feels good to confess your dirty deeds...no more guilts, hahaha!

As my share, here's my confession:
I once worked in a company where I have this girl officemate who had been very good in making excuses to be absent whenever we have deadlines. She's usually absent on the day itself of our deadline which is month-end! My revenge was... I resigned on the day itself of the quarter-end, which is more dreadful than the month-end! hahaha... I really made it a point to resign on exact quarter-end because of her! Grrr.... and when she knew about it, she was really mad and overly disturbed! Yesss!

I still have lots of confessions to make...but due to its volume, I can hardly remember all of them!

How about you? Would you like to make a confession? This is your chance to vent out and release all your guilts ....

Payperpost -- up and running!

I started blogging when I started our wedding preparations last year. I'm a type of person that usually say in front of your face what I usually don't like or like about you. My blog usually serves as my outlet of how I feel for each day that passes. Also, since I'm working abroad and I left a lot of friends and family in my home country, they usually ask me to blog about anything related to my current situation. So, I really made it a habit to blog to keep my friends and family updated with what's in and out of my life.

But then...I never thought that this blog would somehow become an extra source of income. I never had an inkling that I can somehow earn money from just sitting in front of my laptop and just writing about how I feel or think about a particular subject. Isn't that amazing? You can earn money in the comfort of your home and doing what you really like....which is blogging.

Before, I was really unaware that there's this certain opportunity to earn extra money thru blogging...until all my blogger friends started posting some sponsored posts in their blogs. At first, I thought that they need to apply personally to the company for you to be able to blog about their product. And I thought..."I won't do anything like that...It would be a great hassle for my schedule!" And besides, I'm not even sure if there's an existing facility like that in UAE since I was in UAE then. So I just kept on reading their posts. Then, at one time, I just saw this post of one of my friends that she earns money thru blogging and that's where I got the full information about payperpost! I clicked on the link on her post and I applied...then got approved!

This facility offers good opportunity to let the people earn money without having the hassle of personally applying or something like that. It just requires some clicking here and there in your laptop! That's just easy! Who would not want to apply for this kind of money earning facility? See!

Now, I need to think of the things I can buy for these extra earnings...hmmmm...and hmmmm again. Let me do the counting...shoes, bags, clothes, gadgets ... oh, I lost count...let me do it once again...

I'll better start making a list now...
