Nemo’s world

Last time when we visited Disneyland, we didn’t go to this one because we thought it’s not interesting but after I learned from the Disney commercial about this place, I thought we should go to this one on our next visit. It’s very exciting because my children loves nemo and I’m sure they will enjoy this ride. We can’t wait. We will be getting our Disneyland annual pass in a few days and we can go back to the Disneyland whenever we want to. This time we can also visit the California adventure which is across the Disneyland. I was told that California adventure is really fun for they have water show, we haven’t been there yet. We all can’t wait, it’s just a matter of days and our Disney adventure will begin once again.

Gadget freak

We are anxiously waiting for our tax refund and hopefully it’ll be here before the week is over. I can’t want to shop for my DSLR at the local electronic store and my husband mentioned that he’ll go and check the store’s refurbished netbooks as well and if he sees something he likes, he said he might purchase it. My husband loves gadgets and electronics, that’s just the way he is. He already owned my Sony VAIO laptop because I’m not using it. He told me though that I have to take it with me whenever I go back to the Philippines for a vacation so we can communicate with each other. However, he told me upfront earlier today that he wants an iPad 2. I told him that he can get what he wants because he’s the one who brings home the bacons anyway. We’ll see!

Newlyweds

Authored by Leandro Delgado

My brother is getting married next month. I love his fiancé and could not be happier to have her join our family. They bought a house pretty close to us, so I cannot wait to hang out with them after they are married and get to know her even better. My brother asked me last week if I had one piece of advice to offer him about home ownership. I told him that if I could go back and change anything, I would have gotten a home security system in our first home. When we were newlyweds, our home was broken into when my wife was home alone. Thankfully the robbers took a few things and fled without harming my wife, but I always felt so guilty for not being there and not having a security system. I told my brother that I would be happy to help him find one for his new house and suggested he do an online search for home security systems Georgia. He agreed that a security system is something that he is willing to pay for, especially since he will be away from home a lot for work.

Deformed fish

I took this photo at the Nature Center in Chula Vista last year when we visited the center. This fish caught my attention because the mouth was distorted. I felt bad for the fish but I’m sure just like any other crippled human beings, they get used to it. I wonder if this fish is bullied by other fishes in the aquarium because of his physical appearance. Poor fishy!

She has all the guts

I have to admit that I am not blessed with a golden voice but I love to sing. It would be nice to have a blue yeti usb microphone so I can record my music and listen to it. This is really cool because it does recording directly to my computer. I thought about the popular actress in the Philippines who is just like me. She is not blessed with a good voice but she has all the courage to sing in front of everybody and guess what? She has an upcoming concert entitled “No Other Concert”. She even labeled herself as "Annebisyosa", which means Anne (her name) so ambitious. LOL! She also boldly said that this will be her first and last concert.

Well, as far as the Filipinos are concerned, her tickets were almost sold-out and she is excited and nervous at the same time. I salute her for having such courage and guts to sing in front of many people despite of her not having a "singing talent" so to speak. That means I can also become one in my own little way. LOL!

First-come, First-serve

Whenever I go shopping online for just about anything I feel like purchasing on that day, I always make sure that I get the best deals out of it. The last item I bought online was the black tote handbag and it was 60% off, I bought it from nomorerack website. When I first saw the website, I couldn’t believe how unbeatable prices their products were. I had to make sure that the website is legitimate before making any purchase by reading some of the nomorerack reviews and testimonials from their customers. Well, majority of their customers were happy and satisfied with their purchase and transactions with them, so I pretty much went ahead and bought something from their website.

When I saw the black tote handbag, one of their 8 items deals-per-day, I fell in love with it and I purchased it without any hesitation. I am now waiting for the delivery and I was told that international delivery would normally takes 3 to 4 weeks upon arrival, until then I’ll be in my waiting mode. I am hopeful that it’ll be here before the month of January is over. I always check for their everyday deals because I want to make sure I’ll get the item(s) I love before someone else’s steals it from me. It’s first-come, first-serve kind of thing, you know what I mean?

In the mail today

My husband handed me a letter that was addressed to me and as I opened it and read the first paragraph, I first noticed the $5 amount in the letter and as I checked inside the enveloped, "wala" I saw a $5 bill. I was happy of course because this is free money. Well it’s not really free because they had me do something and that is to answer some of their survey questionnaires that they sent me a couple of months ago. They were the one who sent me the rare $2 dollar bill anyways. This is not the first time I received cash in the mail, I think this is my fifth times. The biggest amount I received was almost $40 for doing a TV show survey for the entire week. Cool huh?
