lasik

i had my Lasik done in 2002. i never liked wearing contacts or eyeglasses so lasik was the perfect solution to my very bad eye sight. it was great to be able to see clearly again without eyeglasses. i felt really happy i didn't have to go through the process of wearing contacts. the procedure was fast and in one day i was good already. i'm sure glad i decided on it.

online friends

i have met a lot of friends through the blogging community. in the process of reading their blogs, i do not only get to know them more but i also get to learn a lot from them. for the past 4 years that i have been blogging, it has been fun especially during the past year (blogger friends, you know what i mean here).

blogging is only one of the many ways where one could meet new friends. a good friend in highschool has been a member of the 3gb community for quite some time now and it was through here that she met his husband. they have been married now for more than a year and all good as she said. apart from the chance of meeting a life time partner http://www.3gb.biz is also an avenue to meet new friends,old friends, upload your photos albums, join groups,blogs chat with other members,and hear the latest mp3 hits.

for the fun of it, i tried looking for a childhood friend through the website and luckily i found her. she is now lives in the province with her parents. through the website i was reunited with a friend i have not seen nor heard from in years. it was so good to be catching up with her and to be able to know she is doing really well. we agreed we should see each other soon. either i visit her province or she comes to manila. now let me try to search for a church mate we have not seen.

qc to makati and back in an hour. nice!

wii or/and ps3

this was a discussion i had with my cousin the other day. he bought a wii 2 months ago and just the other day he was telling me he wanted to buy a PS3 also. i asked if he was to sell his wii but he said he won't. i asked then on why he was going to buy a PS3 since he had a wii already. and he answered "because". i told him to just be satisfied with his wii (since i like it too) and don't buy a PS3 anymore. he said he can't sleep anymore for the past week but he'll think about it. this morning i saw him and asked him if he has decided on what to do. he had a smile on his face and told me he bought a PS3 already yesterday. if girls are in to bags and shoes, boys are into wii or/and PS3.

what to do...

i have been thinking of upgrading the laptop memory instead of buying a new one. it's cheaper that way i think and the laptop i currently have is not really that old yet. oh, well. i don't really know what to do. i want to be reasonable and i don't want to just buy a laptop since the one i have is something that i could still use. what am i to do also with the laptop i have now if i do decide to but a new one. i can't sell it since it was given by my dad. sheesh!

greys 4x12

now downloading the new episode of grey's anatomy. eeek! excited!

friday

suppose to be a happy day because it's the last working day of the week. but it has not been. i woke up this morning not feeling well. major headache and a slight fever. but i had to get out of bed and make sure everybody (remote staff) is to login for work. i thought it was going to be an easy day but since this morning i have already received 9 emails from my boss of things he wants me to do and supervise. i had no choice but to drink medicine because i will have to work. feeling much better right now and hoping that after i finish what i have to do by 1PM.

i need a glass of coke zero!

no!

carly was today voted out of american idol.

syesha should have gone home. all the girls are going...my top three are the 2 david's and jason. the two other girls are to gome home in the next 2 weeks. they should.

best friends in school

my best friends in nursing school were my nurses pocket guide and my drug guide. i don't know how i would have survived clinical rotations with out this best friends of mine. it helped me through doing my case studies and my nursing care plans. life without them would have been a total disaster. i remember going through my drug guide even during past time. i think every household should have a drug guide. it's important to know more information regarding the medicine we drink even if it was prescribed by your doctor. it's a must to know what the medicine's possible side effect. reading a drug guide doesn't make one nerd. it makes one informed.

and tonight, Grey's anatomy is back! LOVE IT!

stag party

with my cousin getting married and with us (the girls) preparing the bridal shower, our male cousins are all preparing for the groom's stag party. i told my cousins we want to attend their stag party. he says they will let us attend if they get to attend ours too. he said they promise to make our bridal party exciting and funny as they are thinking of arriving in sexy costumes. turns out the stag party they are preparing is to gate crash our bridal party. ending, we have one party for the bride and the groom. this is going to be super fun!

i hate it

i hate it that i am sick again. i was just sick with cough and flu last month! it must be the weather, nothing else to blame but the weather. for the past 2 days my throat hurts like hell. i had a hard time sleeping last night because of my stuffy nose. add a major headache to that. was in bed by 10PM but got to sleep past 1 in the morning.

i don't want to do this but i will....WISH FOR SUMMER TO END. used to love summer but not anymore. it gets hotter and hotter every year. bring in the snow! oppps...no snow pala for the philippines. teehee.

drink lot's of water everyone and vitamins (i don't kasi) for you guys not to get sick like me.

web hosting

we need to put another website for our company and i am now reading Web Hosting Reviews, Web Hosting Guide to help me decide on who is to host our new website. the 3 websites we currently have, 2 of which are for our clients are all being hosted by one company. we are happy with them but we just want to explore the market and see what else our options are. i have received a lot of proposals but with like all the other things i buy and subscribe in, i am so used to reading reviews and guides to help me decide. i like and enjoy reading what other people have to say. it is very helpful especially since they have first hand experience. just reading through the companies website or proposal submitted always would just try to impress the consumer. reading through reviews or guides gives you a better idea of the service and the after sales service they provide which is very important for me.

this is going to be a really long weekend for me. happy weekend all!

gps tracking

my friend who is in the trucking business is thinking of investing on a gps tracking system to make monitoring easier for him. in the past months, he has been having problems with his drivers and have been encountering a lot of delays. he has been receiving a lot of complaints also from his clients of late delivery. with the gps system, he'll be able to trace where his trucks and drivers are. it is going to be a very expensive investment but will be worth it in the end. technology really makes a big difference in the world of business.

budgeting

Since we don't really have an accountant working with us we 100% rely on a budget software to keep us on track with our daily operating expenses. The software is easy to use and since i do have accounting background, i am able to do this without a problem. This is outside my scope of work already but since it does not really take up much of my time i don't have any problems of doing this. We do see a need to hire an accountant once we open our office here in the Philippines, but we have decided that we are still to use the same software. That's how effective it has been for us.

sassy is 30

i remember summer vacations in victorias had been fun because of you. we would always fight when we were kids but that was of course because batang isip pa tayo. i remember nagsusulatan pa tayo dati. teehee. that was super cool! we turned out to be really close especially during the years you were living with us here in manila. you were more than a cousin, you were a friend and a sister. with mimi and bheng, we have shared a lot of unforgetable memories. our midnight trips to malate, our videoke sessions, our jogging sessions, atbp. when you left for dumaguete, i lost my partner in crime.

thank you for all the times you have been there for me. thank you for always making me laugh at times when i don't feel good. thank your for your encouragement and for being a great cousin.

you know that you are missed here in manila and your last visit was super short but i was glad we got to spend some time. you better come back soon though.

enjoy your being 30 and tell us (mica and me) all about it as we are soon to follow. and don't worry cuz, even if you turn 30 today, you don't look your age at all. like what you said you are 30 but isip 3. happy birhthday cuz!

bongo board

when one of the cousins told me she bought us a bongo board i thought it was a game board. but it is not. Bongo Board Balance Board is the hottest balance board on the market today. it is a great fitness workout that is fun and challenging. it develops balance and coordination skills essential to almost all sports and activities by toning core muscles used to maintain balance and stability. the Bongo Board teaches each user the proper distribution of body weight to achieve a consistent equilibrium balance which doesn't hurt for sports performance either. i tried it and it was really cool. it was difficult to use at first but once you find your body balance, you'll get the hang of it.
