Check your road and the nature of your battle.
The world you desired can be won.
It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.

nap mat
August 14, 2009It’s time to go back to school for some kids. Vacation is almost over. I’m sure parents are busy buying their children new stuff for school like stephen joseph quilted backpack or stephen joseph backpack, uniforms, pens and notebooks. Schools are also preparing for the opening of classes. Preschools are readying the kids nap mat once again. Some are repainting the classroom walls and playground facilities. It’s almost like everything’s new. I’m sure students highly appreciate this and would be more excited to go back to school. I personally, would always enjoy the start of the classes. It’s like a brand new start, with the hopes that the new school year would be great and that I would have better grades. Of course it’s not always about studies. One extra reason why one looks forward to going to school is because of classmates and friends. It’s nice seeing them again. Usually the first days are all about catching up and telling stories how each spent their vacation.
texas salsa
August 13, 2009I love eating nachos. I love eating it with Texas Salsa and Jalapeno Olives or Jalapeno Relish. Sometimes I would do some home-made stuff when I don’t have time to buy or wouldn’t have much budget. I’d be happy with just fresh tomatoes, sliced in thin bits as well as onions. The bottled ones are really great as well. It’s still much cheaper to buy as compared to when you eat this in a restaurant. These snacks really go well with beer. It’s what we usually serve when we have parties at home. Everybody just loves digging in. It’s great with lots of cheese and ground beef too! Well, one just need to watch a bit how much he is eating since it’s just so tempting to just keep on digging in. One of our favorite restaurants serves unlimited nachos with salsa. We would end up asking for our 5th or 6th refill! I really enjoy eating there when we’re too lazy to prepare one at home.
not much progress
August 12, 2009We haven’t done much progress this month when it comes to wedding planning. My sweetie and I are just too busy lately. Well, I think everything is still on track though. Hopefully we won’t get any crucial delays. There are just a couple more suppliers we need to book by september. We’re planning to book them during the wedding expo at the PICC. Anyway, I just hope that we don’t get to miss out on any detail.
craving for a vacation
finally home
My brother had to undergo CTscan since the doctor is suspecting that something wrong with his adrenal gland. He already underwent ultrasound and CTscan. It’s great that the doctor cleared him already. At last, after over a week of being confined at the hospital, he is now able to go home already. We’re just really thankful that he has a health card which took away a great chunk from the hospital bill that reached around 64k!
confined
August 9, 2009My brother has been brought to the hospital because of his extreme asthma attack. He was sent to the ER and was given a nebulizer a couple of times, but his condition just won’t improve. He was initially given steroids so that the medicines would hopefully be easier to be absorbed by his body. He was given steroids 4 times a day, which was suspected to have caused his blood pressure to rise. I think the highest was around 185 over something. Oh well. After a few days, they decided to reduce the steroids to 3 times a day.
more resources please
August 1, 2009Our company is undertaking a couple of projects right now and is actually developing more project proposals which we hope we would win. With all these on-going projects and possible new ones, it is inevitable that we increase our manpower. We have a couple of research assistants already but the problem is the foundation doesn’t have enough computers yet for everybody so it’s really hard when they are all in the office. I hope by next week, there would be enough tables, Office Chairs, and computers for everybody. It would be so much easier for us if these research assistants can help us out.
Tita Cory will surely be missed
I woke up around 6 am today and learned about the saddening news that former President Cory Aquino just passed away. I was surprised at myself for shedding a couple of tears. Well, the whole nation is mourning the death of Tita Cory. She has indeed contributed a lot to the country. We owe her our country’s democracy (that most of us are just taking for granted). She has indeed touched a lot of people’s lives.
