My Favorite Product

Allen and Toshi (the laptop)

Toshi is the name of my favorite product. It's a Toshiba laptop that my brother bought in Thailand and gave me last April 2011 during his vacation here in the Philippines. My life changed in many ways when Toshi came. I bid farewell to my trips to computer shops. I could compose essays and novels in the comfort of our home. Believe me, concentration is a challenging task when you write articles in computer shops full of students playing DOTA and other online games. A few weeks after I received Toshi, my hubby and I bought a Sunbroadband Kit

This gadget is fast and easy to use... I just have to plug it into the USB port of my laptop. Still using prepaid but I'm considering of switching to a monthly plan. Going back to Toshi, updating my twitter, facebook, and blog is more convenient. Plus my cute son Allen can play with it (while Mommy's at home) and practice typing names and lots of different words.

What’s a Healthy Deal?

Being healthy is not about having good looks or a great figure. Being healthy involves the condition of the individual’s mind, body and spirit. Health issues do not revolve around a person’s physical state alone; these also concern the mental and social well-being.   

Life is getting more challenging. Problems occurring in human’s daily activities affect their health condition. It’s time to know about what’s a healthy deal. Living a healthy lifestyle involves a combination of proper diet, exercise and adequate rest. This gave way to the birth of wellness programs. However, many are having second thoughts of availing them due to issues on high cost and out of way location.

Good thing, HealthyDeals.ph, a.k.a. Healthy Deals Philippines the newest and only group-buying site in the Philippines offers health and wellness deals. Visit the site check out ongoing promos, get coupons and discounts. Avail of one of the active deals: 2 Sessions of Pole Dancing at Noemi Pitargue’s Wellness in Life. Hurry avail of this treat and get a 25% discount. Have a pole dancing experience for only Php 750 instead of the original price of Php 1000. Get Php 250 savings and all the health benefits pole dancing will give you. Feel healthy and have a sexier body; it also improves body systems and overall wellness.  Not only beautiful celebrities can dot it, you too!

Another treat is… HealthyDeals.ph is having a raffle contest.  Write and join  "What's a Healthy Deal?" Bloggers' Raffle Contest where bloggers who qualify get a chance to win an Apple iPad 2! Bloggers who are 18 years old and above who have at least a 3-month old blog with atleast 10 posts are qualified to join. Check out the complete contest mechanics.   

Joi now! Promo runs from September 20 to October 20, 2011.

Crossroad

Courtesy of:
at_the_Crossroad_by_Hermanne_Allan_Poe

This is what I feel right now…being in a crossroad.  A crossroad they say is when two or more roads meet. I know the road I am in and I know the road that I frequently visit everyday but wherein I can’t stay for long. I have been working for the food industry as a simple R&D Specialist. I handle different kinds of projects, whatever is assigned to me…burger patties, sauces, vegetable fillings, et cetera. No matter how simple I would like to consider things at work there are always scenarios that are blown out of proportion. Take it easy, what most of us say. Yet there are those who want it the hard way. The tougher they treat people, the louder they laugh at them.

Now, let me talk about the other road. The road that I said I frequently visit…it’s my life as a writer (somewhat) I have always wanted to be one. Something happens for a reason as what we always say. I was not fortunate to fulfill my dream of being a writer by profession. Lucky for me there is a lot of online writing jobs like essays.ph, odesk, elance, and reviewstream. Being a reader of romance novels has given me the idea of writing my own novel, sending it out to a publishing company and seeing where that takes me.

Though I am in a crossroad right now I don’t accept defeat. I continuously fight the temptation of drifting down the flood of confusion. I don’t want to drown; I want to swim (though, I literally don’t know how) until I reach the right place for me. Mothers are supposed to be fighters. That is what I am.
