The Alternative Solution For Smokers

Last week, we were asked by our professor to report something about the latest trends in our technology today. Whether it is web-based, application, software or even gadgets.

I first thought of project management software as my topic. But then, when I found out that most of my classmates will report about technologies like this, I decided to look for another one.

Since it is also common to talk about the latest models of cell phones and laptops, I decided to report about the electronic cigarette or also known as e-cigarette.

It is considered as an alternative for cigars, pipes and other tobaccos. Some has nicotine content while you can also have it without nicotine at all but instead, it has a liquid flavor that will satisfy your vice.

This gadget is a battery operated device design to provide inhaled doses of nicotine through a vaporized solution.

For me, this will be a great alternative for some people who are starting to quit smoking. Since it can have a low content of nicotine or none at all, this can somehow be a substitute for the real cigarette.

This is the main reason why I’m planning to buy one for my boyfriend so he can stop himself from smoking.

You Don't Have The Right

I was supposed to be lying in the bed now, sleeping, since I still have to get up early for our meeting with our panelist at Ortigas tomorrow. But then again, I remembered that I still have to research about hemorrhoids treatment because my cousin asked me to help her with her assignment at school regarding some implications and other diseases.

But when I was about to start my research, one of my groupmates sent me a text message that I know has a different and harsh meaning. She was accusing me that I don’t contribute much in our group works, which I know in myself is indeed wrong.

I was just hurt by the way she approached me. Can’t she just say it in a nicer way without trying to impart something else? I am so pissed off because she’s trying to tell me that I am one big useless in our group.

I hate her for saying that. The mere fact that we were able to pass one of our major subjects because of all my hard works and efforts ALONE, only proves that I am not as useless as what she thinks.

Endless Possibilities

You Are Daring and Dazzling

You are funky, eccentric, and charming in unexpected ways. You are constantly inspired and inspiring. You throw caution to the wind and try to avoid the safe option. You love not knowing what's coming around the corner. You love that the world is full of infinite possibilities - and you'd like to try every combination of them that you can. You are always changing, growing, and expanding your horizons. You never suffer from stagnation or boredom.

I Need A Long Break

It’s almost the end of my busy days but I know that I still need to continue complying with the requirements this summer.

And since that I have enough time to relax and give myself a little break, I was able to have my best acne treatment session with my dermatologist two days ago. It was a great feeling for me since I was able to medicate the zits that came out because I don’t get enough sleep and rest for almost a month.

Furthermore, I was able to visit a spa and have a body massage, which I’ve been dying to do for the last couple of weeks because I feel so tired and I think that my body was already abused and stressed with too much work in school.

Well I think I deserve more than this since I’ve worked so hard for our thesis and I’ve given my full effort just to finish all the requirements. How I wish that time will allow me to do more enjoying things that will help me relax my whole body.

On A Diet

My friend has been bugging me with so many health issues that she’s encountering right now. She’s calling me for almost everyday just to ask for some favor for her routine. And since I’m a good friend, I never hesitate to help her.

She was actually advised to go on a diet. Her doctor recommended a best diet supplement for her so she can easily lose weight. She was asked to do this since she’s starting to experience mild complications and as we all know, it’s not good for a very young age.

It would be best for her to start controlling her eating habits and try practicing eating healthier foods like veggies and those with low cholesterols and sugars.

I just hope that she’ll be able to cope up with this. I know that it is a bit hard for her to lessen her food intake but I believe that she can do this as far as I can see.

My Secret Weapon

On this day of your life, Vien, we believe God wants you to know ... that life is not a distraction from, life is an occasion for prayer.

You don't need a special place or special time to pray. You don't need to be in a special mood to pray. Praying is like breathing, - continuous, essential, life-giving, - praying is the conversation with God you start with birth and continue into old age. Praying is your celebration of God, - everything you do, everything you think, everything you say is another word, another sentence of your prayer.

And I think, this is what I really need to do for now. I will just lift everything to God for I know that whatever failures I may have right now, eventually, I’ll be able to move forward with the help of HIM.

I know that God will never leave me and I trust HIM as what I always do.

Batch 2010

I have already confirmed that I will be marching for graduation this year. I think I have posted some details already in my previous posts and I’m not posting it for the sake of letting the whole world know. LOL!

For the past few days, I’ve been receiving photo graduation invitations from my dearest high school friends who will be graduating this March. I am so proud of them for making it to the end and I’m so happy that they are now done with their college days. Additionally, I’m very excited for them since they are now entering another milestone in their life, which is facing and being in the real world.

On the other side, there were times that I can’t help but feel so envious with them. The mere fact that they are graduating this year, makes me want to cry because I was supposed to be like them, sadly though, I failed.

But I should not blame myself for this because I know that I did a great job and I gave my very best especially during the last year in college. It’s just that, I’m studying in a prestigious university that requires a very high standard and that’s why it’s not that easy to aim for our diploma.

We undergo a lot of hard works that needs to have the best effort. This is the main reason why all students in our school are very well trained and really has the edge among the others.

I know everything happens for a reason. Though I will not be graduating this year, I still thank God and I know that He has a better plan for me.

Baby Boy, Soon!

Four months from now, my sister will give birth to her second baby. She’s pretty much excited and as well as her hubby.

She’s undergoing a monthly check up so that they can monitor the baby. As of now, the findings are okay. The baby is healthy and as well as my sister and those were good news to us.

My sister continues with her diet now as required by her doctor. But then, she also continues to gain weight as the baby grows though it’s normal to pregnant women.

Actually, this is what my sister hates most when she gets pregnant. It’s hard for her to lose weight and it takes her a very long time to be on her original weight. And that’s why she’s now starting to look for diets that work so she can lose fats easily and faster.

I know that my sister will easily cope up with this dilemma as long as she has a healthy baby. So good luck to my sister and may God bless them always.

Summer Outfits

Summer is here again. A time to spend for travels and getaways with friends or family. Most people spend time going to the beach to get tanned skin, enjoy the sand and swim in the ocean. They go island hopping and try different water sports and adventures.

Well as for me, of course I would prefer the beach because I love lying in the sand while getting a nice tanned skin. My summer won’t be complete if I don’t get myself tanned. LOL!

But before hitting the beach, I still need to go shopping. Being a fashionable person like me, I won’t allow myself to spend my summer without shopping for new outfits and other fashion stuffs that will go with the season.

Actually, I already started doing some rounds. I dropped by in my favorite online shop, which is the oldnavy.com and found these items.





I really like the swimwear and the tube dress. I guess it will be perfect to wear at the beach.

Bad News

It’s graduation month for most graduating students nowadays. In our school, the graduation is scheduled on April 16, 2010.

Most of my batchmates are now looking for jobs since they are done with their school days and they want to work immediately. Well, how I wish that I am one of them.

It is always my dream to work in the industry for I know that I’ve worked so much just to reach the end of my college life. But unfortunately, I still have to complete my thesis, which is the main reason why I am not graduating this year. So instead of looking for jobs, I still have to study my thesis and defend it to the panelist.

I know it’s sad but I don’t have a choice. I messed up and I accept it. I believe that this happens in God’s will that’s why it was not that hard for me to cope with it.

I’ve already moved on and instead of blaming myself, I will just try my best to finish my thesis.

Dilemma

My friend asked me to research for an effective diet pill that will let her loss weight easily. Actually, I don’t have any idea about this since I am not using any kind.

So when I went online last night, I tried to look for a weight loss pill for my friend since she’s been very problematic with her weight for years now. I found Stimerex ES and read some articles and I discovered that it is proven effective by many users.

I sent an email to my friend regarding this including some links wherein she can read further information about this. I didn’t go through with the other subtopics and articles about this since I will not be the one who will use it.

But then again, I reminded her that she must consult her doctor first before taking any kind of weight loss pills for safety precautions. It will always be better to do that to avoid implications or diseases.

One More To Go

March 12, 2010, Friday, our class conducted a seminar at Araullo High School here in Manila. This seminar is a partial fulfillment of our requirements in our subject Computer Issues and Seminars.

Our main goal is of course to impart knowledge about the latest trends in technology including the uses and importance of it. Our target attendees are fourth year students of public high school.

We’ve done so many preparations for this including the processing of permit papers for the school, invitations, tarpaulin and catalog printing, souvenirs, certificates, token of appreciation, the program flow itself and lots more.

The seminar that we had yesterday was indeed a success and that’s all because of the help and cooperation of everyone in our class including our adviser.

We are very much thankful for the students and faculties of Araullo High School who participated in our event and most especially to our professors specially our adviser who supported us from the start and up to the last minute of our seminar.

We still have to conduct one more seminar on Monday. I wish that it will be as successful as this one.

Shopping On Sale

I was out at the mall earlier today with my mom. There is a summer sale and we both want to check it out. Actually, the mall is open today until midnight but of course we choose to go home early because I need to take a rest because I still have a morning class tomorrow.

I bought a nice board shorts at one of my favorite stores that sells summer outfits. It’s a lot cheaper than the original price that’s why I didn’t hesitate to buy it. Good thing that this was the first day of their sale and there are still lots of stocks and sizes available.

While on the other hand, my mom bought a kymaro body shaper and she got a cocktail dress that she’s planning to wear on Sunday for the graduation of my niece.

Everything we bought was e good buy since prices were depreciated for 50%. And that is the reason why we always love SALE!

Oh Yes! I Am!

You are a naturally outgoing and friendly person. People interest you, and you love making new friends. You are a very open minded and enthusiastic person.

What Kind of 'Er' Are You?

Work is Hard. Time for Blogthings!

I'll Be Like You Someday

I know how excited my sister is for her second baby. This time, it’s a boy that’s why she and her hubby are very much happy and grateful for their blessings.

I admire my sister when it comes to raising her kids. Well of course, she definitely learned it from my mom. What I like most about them is they really set goals for the future of their kids unlike for some who doesn’t have any priorities or plans.

Like for instance, though my sister is not yet giving birth to her second baby, she’s now preparing for the baby’s future. She’s starting to get free online life insurance quotes for the security of her baby and she did exactly the same with Bela, their first child.

My sister only wants her family to be secured in case anything happens in the future. Of course, like any other moms, she always wants the best for her family especially to her children.

Restaurant City

This is my restaurant city. I am now in level 42 and until now I still manage to play with it. But honestly, it is actually my boyfriend who plays this more than I do.

I helped him update my restaurant but it is always him who decorates the place. I only give suggestions on what to put and upgrade and he is the one who approves for everything that you see in my restaurant.

Like for instance, I was the one who asked him to have a separate place for the comfort room and the sinks. Before the sinks are beside the toilet bowl and I observed that it’s a bit crowded so I suggested putting it to another place.

I am not really good in decorating and arranging the furniture that’s why I badly need some help when it comes to this. I do trust my boyfriend about this because I know how creative and artistic he is.

Election 2010

In just a few months, 2010 election will happen. And so, in preparation, the political candidates are starting to campaign for their position.

Honestly, I really hate election period. I really hate seeing the various advertisements of each candidate proclaiming their vows to all Filipinos and flaunting their agendas, which I’m sure, is very far from reality.

I mean, come on, and let’s face it. Most of the political candidates are good in words but never in actions. They are the type of leaders who are the so-called starters, meaning they are just great in starting a project but never had a chance to have a beneficial ending.

I must admit, I am very much annoyed with Manny Villar. I can’t get his point of broadcasting how poor he was before. Does it mean that if you came from a poor family, you will become a good leader? Hell NO! I am really irritated whenever I see his face in the tv with his different commercials. I swear, I will not vote for him. LOL!

I just wish that people will think of their votes. Every single vote can change our country. If I were you, I will give extra effort in dealing this matter. Make a research. So that you will have an idea on what kind of a leader they are.

Sunday Agenda

I got home around 8pm a while ago. I went to school in a Sunday at 8am since we were supposed to take our defense but unfortunately we were not qualified but our professor required us to come to school as runners (or helpers, meaning the one who will buy food for the panels, the assistants of the students who took their defense and the like).

After lunch, our shift ended so we were allowed to go home. But instead of going home, I met up with my boyfriend and we visited our friend who was hospitalized due to drinking of too much adipex without prescription. Good thing she’s doing so well now.

After visiting our friend, we decided to go to the mall to eat. We then agreed to watch a movie, and then went straight home after we’ve finished watching.

I am a bit sleepy now since I woke up early this morning so I think I better go.

A Very Special Day

Last December 30, 2008 was our first anniversary of my boyfriend. In fact I’ve already posted a glimpse of our simple celebration in my previous post.

Though this was a very important event for us, we still chose to celebrate it in a very simple way. We just met up, eat our dinner and then that was it. For us, the way we celebrate it was not a really big deal. For as long as we’re together, we are definitely happy and contented about that.

But one thing that made our anniversary truly special was his surprise for me. As I’ve said in my previous post, he gave me a ring but that was just a simple anniversary gift and not an engagement ring, so please, don’t think such things like that! Maybe in the next 5 years or so, I might receive a ring with loose diamonds while he’s kneeling in front of me and asking me to marry him. LOL!

Well, let’s just see what will happen. After all, we are still young to plan things like these. For now, we just want to enjoy each moment that we have and we both know that we still have a long way to prove our love for each other.
