Self Preparation for a Big Test

My cousin and some friends are busy preparing for a big test in their life.  Some are enrolled in a formal review class while other did self review only for financial reasons.  I told them about online review and some are skeptic about it.  So i shared this link about gmat prep for any big test they want to be prepared for. One friend decided to check more on it and inquire from her sponsor in the states if reviewing online review is reliable.  I will be waiting her reply on Wednesday.

I guess to enroll in an online review class, one must have a good internet connection speed because as of the moment am connect from the netbar and the connection sucks.  There’s no connection at work that is why i missed my turn in making a post for OWM.

Green Capsules

Last week a friend of mine came to visit to introduce me to her new-found business.  A networking of healthy green capsules.  She wanted to endorse the product to me.  Sounds interesting but I turned down the offer because am not in great financial situation.   But i told her not to get discourage because who knows in the coming months, my finances will get better.

Another friend also told me that she is taking phentermine and so i told her if she was able to read online more info about this pill that some women are crazy about. She said yeah she has read it and has answered some questions.  I can’t say yes or no in behalf of her because i haven’t tried Phentermine.  The only capsules i did try was Green capsules from Rejuvination.

Looking Back

This happened 12 years ago.  I was young, single, and in love.  I was working in a city in Visayas while he is based here in Mindanao.  It was not my first long distance relationship and my first was just broken.  That experience did not give me the lesson that maybe long distance relationship will not work.  For us, it worked sometime.

One of the unforgetable meetings we had was the Valentine s date in one of the paradise Island in this planet.  Though it took me a couple of months to save up for the trip, yet when the time came for the trip to happen, my money was not enough.  Enough to travel but there’s not enough for other expenses (the emergencies).  We did not anticipate emergencies yet we argue that we should have that budget.  We were reserved in a 4-star accommodation for 3 days and my salary was not enough.  So I was not prevented to apply for a cash advance.  I am a bit hesitant to do cash advance because at payday I would be receiving less, but for emergency cases like that, I really did thank for that cash advance.

The three days date was heavenly.  We spent long afternoon hours in the beach – relaxing, swimming, strolling, and watching the sun set.  The moment with each other was so blissful that i don’t want each day to end so that the three days won’t be over.  To cool our bodies on the third day (we were sun burned) we had coconut juice and orange juice by the pool.  We did not swim in the beach anymore.  Our body needed the cool water treatment.  We then took a nap by the pool side too.  Fall asleep while reading due to late nights going around the island and playing with the other guests.  Watching the star studded sky was also an unforgetable moment with him that time.

Valentine’s day is just around the corner.  It’s less than 30 days to go and am recollecting this experience.  How i wish it will happen again.  I can still do the cash advance but the problem is, with whom i can do the date.

Anyone wanna apply?

Happy Holidays!

To your home, from my home –

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Shopping Time

I am trying to count how many hours in a week do ladies go shopping.  Shopping as in shopping meaning excluding the food supplies and groceries.  Am talking about going to the mall, and visit your favorite botique to grab the latest fashion clothes.  I am sure any shopaholic woman can answer me this question.  Since I am not that modern shopaholic then i would wait for someone to really tell me how long does she spend shopping online or offline.  I am not a very fashionable woman but there are really those who can’t buy anything except those that are on trend.

In this country it is like summer whole year through but over in the states, it is now late summer time and almost to turn fall in just few weeks.  So many are now looking forward to shop for their fall clothings.   And then i know in a month or two, people will start to buy for their winter clothes.  I missed doing this.  Staying in a country where there is just wet and dry season so we don’t experience changing our wardrobe stuff four times a year.  I miss shopping for the cold days.

Some people also complain when shopping is a must.  Seasonal shopping is a must.  If there are those make shopping as their profession, well there are also those who do not have time to shop – time like going out to the stores to buy clothes for the season.  Now this is where shop wiki came in as an angel.  Because while these busy people are in the comforts of their offices or while on a run for a business meeting, they can click to shop.

Shopaholics told me that in order to buy the seasonal clothes at a cheaper price, buy them a season before.  So it is still summer time but it is now the best time to shop for winter clothes – they are now available online.  Just like this pantsuit shown.   It comes in a affordable price so you can grab it while supply lasts.

OWM – Renewal of Marriage Vows

It’s another weekend and am excited because it is another OWM time. As promised last week, i will be sharing the photos of the marriage encounter culmination program – the renewal of marriage vow.

A week ago today, was a busy crazy day for me. (oppssss) this post as continued today. I started this post Saturday afternoon but was not able to finish this. Now it’s Tuesday over here and i really have to finish this.

I will be showing off the photos one by one and will have a small description in each of them. Enjoy!

I got so much to share but i think this post is now too much loaded.  I wish i can share photos of the couples but they are too many.

This weekend was very unforgetable that even Pastor Teves himself was still having MSH/College hangover last week.

Dieting Partner

Someone told me that if i will really get focused in losing weight then i would lose weight.  But if my heart is not 100% in the goal then i would have a hard time hitting the mark.  One friend told is now back in the gym and she also control the quantity of her food plus the diet pill that works with her kind of work and acitivities, she has already lost 5 pounds after 2 months.  Maybe for some that 5 pounds sound so small but for someone who is really overweight, that is already a great news.  For me, am still going to start and it will be soon.  

All About This Photo {An Idea}

From now on, from time to time, i will be posting random photos entitled ALL ABOUT THIS PHOTO.  I will be posting a photo and share a thing or two about it.  These photos will be posting in all my blogs according to the theme of the blog.  ALL ABOUT THIS PHOTO – FOOD/RECIPE will be posted in my Health related blog. ALL ABOUT THIS PHOTO – PLACES/PEOPLE will be posted in my Dancing blog and here in this blog will be anything i care to share.

It was this morning while i was in the shower and changing my clothes for work that i thought of the idea.  As fillers!  Paid bloggers understand what i mean. hehehe  At times kasi i have to do blog hop to find grabbable QAs just for fillers.  At times i got no more time to blog hop for fillers – then a picture is my best option.

Am sure am gonna post one soon. I just need to make the badge.
