Moving on

Passages Malibu helps pinpoint what the cause of a person’s dependence on drugs or alcohol. Because you know there’s something behind that dependence. Something that made the person turn to addiction. Depression. It was the root cause of all the bad things that happened to Larry’s life. And the depression was brought on by the [...]

Ah, yes!

Just what my aching body needs right now… Water, sun. Fluffy pillows. Peace and quiet.

Flowers for you… just because.

I received flowers from someone I haven’t seen in a while. I met him from a common friend. He’s a funny guy who made me laugh when I was so tired from work. He’s a good guy with whom I could talk to about the quirks of being the eldest. We talked almost daily. He [...]

Two savings account

I am thinking of opening two savings accounts under my name. One will be for my grandma, the other one for my dad. I won’t tell them about it. I just want something I can tap on should there be an emergency or an important expense for them comes up. I am just a bit [...]

Budgeting the important expenses

There are important expenses that come right after the basic ones. One of them is insurance. There’s life, home, and car insurance. These are important expenses that we should provide for. Of course, I understand the fact that some of us barely make both ends meet. In this case, most people opt to forgo something [...]

Angered easily

I get angry so easily these days. Sometimes, it borders on being violent. No, I don’t hit anybody but the urge to do so is overwhelming. And I raise my voice. I can’t help it. Afterwards, when I have spent myself, I would start feeling guilty. But then little things trigger my anger and it [...]

Time to act on it

Get an insurance quote now. You never know when you’re going to need it. We realized it in time… My brother just passed away that time. Our family would go to my brother’s grave every Sunday. One Sunday, my dad was driving a bit faster than he used to because we were all hungry already. [...]

House for sale

We are selling our house. We really want to transfer to a quiet neighborhood. So we, my siblings, my dad and I, decided to sell our house and use the proceeds to get another one elsewhere. The thing is, now that there’s a definite buyer already, the hesitation to move starts settling in. I hate [...]

Car enthusiasts in the family

My Uncle Eddie, his son, Deejay, and my brother, James are all fans of BMW cars. They know everything about each new model and even the older ones. Ask any one of them about the bmw x5 specs and they will recite it to you without missing a beat. You know how boys are when [...]

Jaded on friendship

My friends and I were saddened when we heard first-hand how bitter about life a former teacher is. He narrated how he used to go out with so many friends. The number slowly dwindled when one by one his friends got married, migrated to another country, worked abroad, etc. He was bitter about it. He [...]

Study while working

For working students who are about to step into college, you now have the solution on how to stay working while studying. You can opt to take up online college programs instead. After work, go online and study. Now, you can continue earning a living in the day and study at night. No need to [...]

Scared of getting sick

I fear I have diabetes. My grandma has it. Our family is known to have had cases of health problems even when the person is still young. So I won’t be surprised anymore if I am sick. With whatever it is, I don’t know. I don’t want to know because, obviously, I am scared. My [...]

Learning toys for kids

I am a practical person. The things I buy will be used and not just stored or displayed somewhere. The Award Winning Toys I give my godchildren are actually toys that they can benefit from. You know, learn about different things, improve their motor skills, stimulate their minds. It won’t be just another toy to [...]

Road trip, savings, priorities

I want to go on a road trip but I can’t do it right now. I am saving up to buy two new laptops. I am also depositing money for my grandma’s expenses. I don’t know where to get funds should there be an emergency regarding my grandma and I want to be prepared for [...]

Desire to acquire a new house

Home Loans. I am considering this option as of this moment. I don’t have enough funds, obviously, to get a new home. That’s why a loan is a big consideration for me now. If you are regularly reading this blog of mine, you know that for the past few months, I have this burning desire [...]

A simple message to all…

Happy Valentine’s Day to all! Happy Sunday as well

Opt for the next best thing

There are many beautiful watches out there. Branded ones. Not everyone can afford it, though. There are those who need to really prioritize something else so they forego buying the watch they really like. If you are one of those people who can’t afford to buy original branded watches, why not consider selecting one from [...]

No sleep

I have a friend who is an insomniac. She literally cries herself to sleep each and every night. She would cry from being too tired and her body won’t respond to her order to sleep. Someone suggested she get the best over the counter sleep aid for those days that she really can’t afford to [...]

Losing hair

My friend’s dad is slowly losing his hair. Hair loss is something serious that we should all address. Men are more prone to this than women, in my opinion. That’s because I’ve seen more men with bald or balding head while women still hold on to their crowning glory longer. Thank goodness the best hair [...]

Spinster

We have quite a few spinsters in the family. On both sides, paternal and maternal. I don’t see anything wrong with growing old alone and without a husband and kids. But I do acknowledge the fact that it can be lonely. A cat or any pet can keep them company but up to when? Pets [...]
