My Pink Shoelace

Got this from Rai … thanks sis and Happy Valentines to all.

A friend of mine plans to purchase a notebook pc but the thing is its too much if you pay it in cash, told him it’d be better if he pays through credit card. Problem is he doesn’t have one, he’s been working for more than 2 years and still has not applied for one. Credit cards are advantageous for emergency and big purchases, I mean lets face it not all of us are lucky enough to incur a big amount then and there. Got one credit card of my own and just the other day was informed that my application for a loan which includes a credit card from the bank has been approved and that we’ll have our orientation this 19th. Am excited, not that am gonna use it to swipe on my next shopping escapade (am not like Becky on Shopaholics) but am excited coz I think I’ll be using that in my next laag which is gonna be out of the country, hope they’ll incur miles and such … hehehehe … oh well I better check their website and see what I can find.

Was browsing online for books, April mentioned that there’s a book she found online but couldn’t find it in local bookshops here. I offered to order the book for her and she’ll just pay me the moment the book arrives, ran into shelfari, a site showcasing various books of multiple genres. One of the members, Neil, had quite a taste of books on his profile’s bookshelf. He seems to be a fan of Grisham and Rowling and Michaels. Of the books he has on his shelf I’ve read all expect one, a romance I think from Fern Michaels, am such a sucker for Harry Potter so I’ve read all the books released, the last I’ve read from Grisham was The Partner and I haven’t touched anything from him in the last couple of months.

I like this site I found and am thinking of joining, it definitely is a hub for book lovers like me, the good thing about it is that registration is for free.

Many people who want to undergo cosmetic surgery would want to have the best surgeons in the trade after all they’re gonna spend loads of money to undergo such a risky operation. Well known for the craft are these Los Angeles plastic surgeons, Hollywood personalities are what comprises their client base.  With operations like these, trust to the surgeons is a must, after all without trusting the competence of your surgeon could lead to tremendous unease during the whole process.

The result of the operation lies not only in the hands of the surgeons but also with the patient, on how he or she is coping up with the whole thing. Plastic surgeons are rampant nowadays and its mandatory to do some research first before deciding which surgeon you’d get to perform the surgery.

Our face is our most noticeable asset; it is what we use to be directly in contact with everyone in the world around us. This is the reason why we always do our best to make it look as pleasing and as warm as possible. More often than not though, something out of place like a nose that is too large can be impossible to correct with cosmetics alone.  Every nose is shaped differently and some gets deformed due to unfortunate accidents or simply because age can do funny things to out looks.

A good nose job is what it takes to correct whatever it is that does not feel and look right with our nose. The surgery is but a small price to pay for the benefits earned after; such as, increased self esteem that comes from knowing you look better. Since this procedure can change your life, it is best to take time and nut rush into a decision. Find a trusted plastic surgeon that you’re comfortable with to discuss the matter thoroughly. After your expectation has been and both the benefits as well as risks involved have been laid out to you; you should be able to decide whether you take the leap or not.

Cosmetic surgery in Beverly Hills is common, I mean most of the social elites would want to have this type of beautification surgery done with the best and among the best. The doctors or shall I say the surgeons here are well known amongst their colleagues to be among the best, so you can rest assure that you’re in good hands. Not only do they perform cosmetic surgery, amongst their other services are the nose jobs, and liposuction and the brow lift. What amazes me most is the testimonials given by their many a patients, these doctors even helped a valley crash victim, helped restore her face after the damage. Amazing how these doctors can restore and change the features of a human being without noticeable superficiality in the result.

After all the alteration of one’s face no matter what the reason is should be placed in the hands of someone you trust. Someone told me once if only they have a surgeon who happen to be their family friend she’d gladly spend all that money to have her face done cause she knows she’s in safe hands.

My uncle and my cousin have not always seen eye to eye. Maybe it’s because my brother is in his teen years and we all know that’s a difficult stage. This is the age when we get rebellious and do the exact opposite of what our parents tell us, for the purpose of riling them. However, if you put those two together inside a billiard hall and watch them play snooker, you won’t see a father and son but two buddies of the same age instead. I have seen how they bonded and how close they have gotten because of their mutual love for the game. They go to billiard tournaments together and when my brother won his first championship at the district playoffs; my dad’s face shone with so much pride and joy as if he won the match himself. Those were really good times.

When I get homesick and I miss them, I play the online pool. I’m not very good at the online snooker  but I can give anyone a run for their money with the online version. As a matter of fact, I have beaten my brother twice already.

Ever considered getting a cash advance? Especially when pay day is still far off and you end up finding yourself in an unexpected turn of events?

But then how fast is the approval? The thought of going to a lending firm at times waiting on queue, wondering when will your turn come, the hassle of physically showing up personally is one of the many things that would stop a prospective borrower.

Well, with the advent of technology especially the fast growing awareness of the people of what the internet can do, companies are constantly planning and implementing strategies of putting businesses online. So now who says you have to go to a lending firm to apply for a cash advance?

With Trust Source not only does a prospective lender get a heads up on the do’s and dont’s of online payday loan but he’d also get a list of economical cash advance marketing sites. Tested and proven sites, reviewed by other borrowers and editors alike.

With Perfect Cash Advance, payday loans are safely and securely deposited to the borrowers bank account. Cash advance can be applied and processed for online, anonymously from the public and in the comforts of ones home where every documentation you might need can easily be found.

When pay checks don’t meet halfway, number one solution to people is a cash advance, offered from various websites and lenders. But the question is which ones offer the “best” solution to your financing needs, are the terms acceptable or are they flexible? How much time are you gonna spend for the application process? What papers / documents do you need to apply for these so called loans? The thought of going through the process can be tiresome for some people, waiting in line at the physical offices of these lenders can be a turn off for prospective clients. The nice thing about applying online is the anonymity and the hassle free transaction. So for those who’d like to avail of these loans better check out various sites first so as to compare on their terms and conditions.

Was looking at the overall layout of the site and though this is just a two column layout, I love it and would definitely keep it as it is. On the sidebar though am thinking of placing opinion polls or a quick kind of survey. Haven’t found any specific poll to place though I’ve found the site with the tools to assist me. The site that offers free web Polls for webmasters and online services and one of them is the free counters to track the number of visitors on the site. Most likely I’ll add one come this February, I still have to think of the theme for the poll though.

With the onslaught of instant messaging services online, some of the pioneer in instant messaging rooms become so flooded with bots and spammers that its hard to know if these people listed are real or just plain bots. Run across a site that offers free personals, free chat rooms of various user groups, interest levels and countries of origin, every thing is for free and users get to create their own blog to share their thoughts and what nots.  Free, simple, user friendly and definitely spam free, might as well register here and start meeting new friends.

Was checking through my emails earlier and was getting a bunch of junk mails as usual. But one email caught my eye, free online casino. A bunch of online casino sites for various games, online slots, blackjacks, roullete, video poker and a lot more. I’ve heard of poker but didnt know such a thing as video poker exists.

Sorting through my other junk mails, found out that mail adverts for casino sites are a bit unreal. What I mean is the adverts they placed on the email is not as real as it is once you get to the site. Good thing there’s a site that provides full review, editor and user ratings among various online casino. It also delayed as it categorizes the sites according to games they’re most well known for.

Lets say for Online Slots, the top one site per editor and player rating is Vegas Red Casino, prospective players are given an overview on max bonus etc and has the option to read the full review provided by users and editors. Same goes with other games such as Bingo, Carribean Stud, Backgammon, Online Poker, Craps, Roulette and etc.

So if you’re one of those online players seeking the best casino sites out there on the web then do check out Pro360.com; they;ve been reviewing casino online since 1997.

The nature of our work makes us more prone to wearing glasses. When I started getting headaches and my sight started to blur I went to see my doctor right away. I didn’t like it at first because I thought it wasn’t cool but I made a Great Discovery: Zenni Optical offers a wide selection of prescription glasses. I’m not surprised that a number of shops are offering the Zenni Optical: Sell Rx Glasses $8 with case! at all. Best Thing Found: Zenni Optical; I’m wearing mine now.

One of the things I wanted to do online is setup an online store, I mean its what Wafa and I used to talk about. Initially what we wanna start doing. But when we got started to blogging we got hooked and now we’re stuck, not that we’re complaining mind you, we still talk about setting up our own online shop one of these days. Now that we both have our own lil corners in cyberpace, we barely have time to sort out our plans for the online store. We got one important detail settled though, the shopping cart software we’re gonna use, that’s the toughest aspect of the plan. Selecting the software you’re gonna use for your store is very crucial as this would be the tool used in processing the charges. It has to be secure and safe enough against the renegade hackers scouring the net. We’d be using ashop should we decide to setup our own online shop coz of the positive clients review we’ve read.

Was just doing my usual scouring on the net when I came across this site or more like a blog about the body mind spirit coexisting in harmony with one and nature. One of the posts that caught my eye was entitled how to think more positively especially since the image on the post was that of an iced tea. Read through the steps provided and simple as they seem but somehow people like me who’s on the verge of a “depression storm” havent had the time to notice. The author of the post said “Think about a positive attitude as much as you can, if not all the time.” Hmmm … tough!!! Just what like Eds said, its almost always difficult to write about positive thoughts or events coz somehow even you (the writer) would not be contented with what you’ve written and that it would appear to be so simple and shallow. Dark has always been what this blog contains … from the homepage itself all the way to the 3 months old posts, reading what I run into online somehow kinda steered me away from what I have been doing the past 3 heavily depressing months of my life.

Various categories are on the left side of this blog am reading, clicked under Personal Development and just like the homepage it has various posts that caught my eye too, Personal Transformation and Suffering Go Hand-in-Hand, how rational. The author said, Usually when I’m suffering, I’m so not happy about it. Same here, I mean who gets happy when suffering? But then again these sufferings are given to you for you to mature and grow as a person not only mentally but in all facets of your development.

Enlightening to know that these dilemmas am in, these depression am in, are just normal and though I think they’re graver than what most people suffer but hey who am I to know? Just as our mantra in my Philo class, even the dumb people have stories to tell. Would place this blog on my bookmarks, it definitely is a must read for people like me … who’se just going through the motions, looking for an escape in the hopes of find a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Damn! Maybe … just maybe if I can steer myself away from these dark clouds I’d be able concentrate on self improvement schemes to make me better and …. sober (emotionally).

To keep my mind off from unpleasant things I signed up this blog with PPP now that its 3 months old I was hoping they’d accept it. Thank goodness they did, it’s a nice feeling to be earning a bit from one’s blog just so to cover for the monthly hosting payments and all. So though this blog is my personal space on the web I might be diverting from my usual dark rantings every now and then. Joining payperpost is one of the nice things that happen this year, at the start of the year matter of fact, and every blogger should sign up with them too. Coz though money is not the primary reason why I blog but then again it wouldn’t hurt to have extra income on the side.

Am glad this blog gets accepted and I look forward to doing reviews every now and then, my usual rantings would still be on here though of course. This has been my outlet through the rough times and hopefully through the good times as well.

A friend of mine is already approved for PPP and she has been telling me nice things about it and how she has been generating income from it for quite some time. It’d be nice to try and I look forward to earning not just from my regular job but from doing what I love most. Blogging.

Hotel Paris, City of Light, World’s Romance Capital, ad so much more, the city has been booming ever since time immemorial what with being the center of the Erik and Christine’s romantic tragedy, many a tourist visit this beloved city day in and day out. The typical tourist would most probably book with one of the many a 5 star hotels in the area, that’d mean setting aside a large budget on the accommodation. Good thing there’s another accommodations setup called the Paris Bed and Breakfast which gives the traveler an option aside from the typical and a bit expensive hotels. With B&B Paris, not only do travelers get a cheaper accommodation they also get breakfast alongside it and a closer interaction with the native Parisians operating the B&B (Bed and Breakfast). Not only would you be able to observe in close quarters their way of living they can even give you insight tips on where to visit and what to do during your stay in the city.

Have you always wanted to learn more but feel that at this point of time in your life, a classroom environment is not something that your comfortable with? Let’s say you want to earn another degree but you have a full time job that makes the conventional classroom training really difficult. Another scenario is that you find classroom classes slow you down, you would rather learn at your own pace. We each have our own reasons and because there is a steady growth in the number of people who prefers computer learning, the courses that are being offered are directly increasing as well. It used to be just computer courses but now it extends all the way to programs in excel training and pmp training as well. This system basically makes learning convenient for everyone to take advantage of!

**You Are A Romantic Realist***

You tend to be grounded when it comes to romance.
Sure, you can fall hard… but only for someone you’ve gotten to know.
And once you’re in love, you can be a total romantic goofball…
But you’d never admit it to your friends!

Are You Romantic or Realistic?

http://www.blogthings.com/areyouromanticorrealisticquiz/

Traditional
Sagittarius Traits

Optimistic and freedom-loving
Jovial and good-humored
Honest and straightforward
Intellectual and philosophical

On the dark side….

Blindly optimistic and careless
Irresponsible and superficial
Tactless and restless

Sagittarians are incurable and lovable optimists, and tend to inject all those around them with their infectious enthusiasm. He/ she is ideal company when you’re down and will bring back positivity and joy in your life.

Sagittarians are also blessed with the gift of the gab and can talk the hind leg off a donkey. They’re usually full of philosophy and worldly wisdom, searching for the true meaning of life, and will ponder on problems all through their existence. Faith and belief is all important to these Archers. Sagittarians are ruled by Jupiter and because it’s the largest planet in the heavens, it gives some of these people ideas. This can be a terrific trait, because it simply means that the Sagittarian is always striving for better things.

This is the universal sign, and all Archers are tantalised by travel and the thought of far flung corners of the globe. This desire to get out and see the world for themselves can be the making of positive Sagittarians. They tend to make the most of every opportunity that arises, and their brilliant perception and vision can often spot a chance when others don’t think it’s there.

All Sagittarians need challenges, so don’t expect life to be one long lullaby if you fall head-over-heels with these romantic and expressive individuals. Love may mean never having to say you’re sorry to some folk, but to an Archer it means: “You go your way, and I’ll go mine.” Sagittarians hate to be tied down, either by people or places. They need to feel they’re free, though they demonstrate their caring streak by lending you their favourite books on planning an adventurous trip with you. Because Sagittarians have many friends, they’re always out and about and have different mates to do different things with.

Travel, is most definitely, the perfect profession for them, as Archers have to be active and roam about the globe meeting new people and experiencing various things. Books is another one of their obsessions and that can mean reading about far flung places or becoming immersed in something philosophical or literary. Astrology is one subject which can really get them going and they have to delve deeply into it.

This is an intellectual sign and Sagittarians can be real clever dogs, blessed with plenty of brain-power. Their 9-to-5 jobs are the happiest when they don’t know what the next hour will bring. They are very hot tempered at times and hurt many a people.

- It made me smile reading through this article coz it basically is true … as if reading my personality from the lines of my palm or something like that. -

Is not an understatement but its a miracle. After all that I’ve been through with mom, work and all that. Talking to Lex and D, writing or shall I say blogging, is definitely making me content for what I have. It somehow lessened the burden I have to bear.

My very first post on this site … the name was suggested by Lex. So emo so cute.
