Simple Thoughts of Mine

Archive for March, 2010

Summer is already here and it will last for 2 months.  Philippines will be having long summer for we have El Niño Phenomena (long dry season) which already damaged billion of pesos in agriculture and livestock.  Too bad huh?   When summer season comes, illnesses and deseased comes along too.  What are these?  And what are the cures, remedies and prevention? Mmmmm….

1.  Hypertension -  don’t ever forget to take your medication.  Reduce sodium (salt) in your diet, limit alcohol consumption, and refrain from eating foods which contain high cholesterol and fats.  And don’t forget to exercise.

2.  Dengue – mosquitos with dengue comes out every summer.  Clean the area, remove all stagnant water, and use mosquito repellent on skin.

3.  Skin disease – avoid skin contact with a person with skin blisters and avoid sharing of towels.  Must know eczema treatment and other skin ointments.  And use sunblock especially if exposed long under the sun.

4.  Chickenpox and measles – must have some vaccine shots to prevent these illnesses.

5.  Sore eyes – avoid touching your eyes with dirty hands.  Use eye drops to refresh your eyes.

These pics were taken last January of 2009 during the seminar/orientation as we are new in our careers as disbursing officers and bookkeepers in our respective schools.  The venue was in Graceland Estates and Country Club in Tayabas, Quezon, Philippines.  I was mesmerized by the beautiful scenery (be at night or day) of the place.  The climate was soothing cold especially at night, the rooms are very cozy and comfy, the foods are great, and of course the seminar itself was very informative as we were being prepared to enter in our own battlefield. 

Mabuhay ka Manny “Pacman” Paquiao!!!  You made us Filipinos proud again!

This used to be one of my hobby which turned-out to be a small biz sometimes few years back. I made Sean Kirk’s first birthday invitation cards and give-aways.  I also made debut invitations as well as wedding invitations.

I did some personalized stuffs like mugs, plates, clocks, candles, t-shirts which serves as give-aways in some occassions.  It only stopped when we had a problem in one step of the processing.  We can’t find other company to do the stuff.  I missed doing this thing.  It was so fulfilling and not to mentioned that I earned a lot from this.  If I have the chance to put up a business, this is the one I like.  Doing recurrent activity is so tiring and boring, so it’s important that you’re enjoying what u’re doing.

It’s been over a month now that I am on a diet.  Well just trying to trim down some stubborn fats of mine.  Hahahaha…  I already lost 5 lbs. from my body weight and an inch from my measurement.  Not bad huh…  I guess I have to know the best fitness equipment for me to trim down faster, because what I am only doing right now is just refraining from eating rice.  I don’t even do exercise which I know will help a lot.  What can I do, I find it so tiring.   Haayyyy….
