Have you signed up for any of these online discount sites? I did with two or three though I haven’t got a major buy yet like some of my friends did.
I would love to but if I do, I’d probably end up broke. Good thing I can still manage to keep control since I use a debit card and not a credit card, I have to be practical and realistic about these things.
How does one weigh the options when buying discount vouchers?
- Buy what is needed. For example a buffet offering is nice if there is a birthday celebration within the months you can use the vouchers. If you are allowed to get as many as 5 vouchers, then go for it.
- An out of town hotel stay is great but make sure you get the plane tickets before the offer expire or else you wasted your money with it.
- Which one do you really need a spa appointment or acne scar treatments? If you can afford both, then go for it but if you can afford only one, then get the deal that you like better.
In the end, you get the best deals for the deals you really need and not because the deal was a good buy.

Are you a directionally challenged navigator? Do you point to the left and say right? Do you point to the right and say left? Do get “lost” when looking at a street map so you want to get that latest gps map installed in your car?
Thank God for visual signs like a McDonald’s or a convenience store at the corner street where you’re supposed to turn left. Or was it right?
Rotundas or roundabouts feel like that spinning wheel the gerbils are playing on, it goes round and round to you and it feels like you can’t find the street where you are supposed to have exited after going around 4 times. or was it six?
Don’t worry, it is not bad to stop and ask for directions.
If in doubt, ask.
Left or right? Don’t ask me, I’m lost too 😉

When my son had his turn to report in front of his class last year, he wanted to bring a laptop with him for presentation. I had to say “NO” because I wanted him to do “manual preparations”. I helped him prepare by choosing pictures to print for a mini-album.
We didn’t have enough time to have poster printing so he had to write the important concepts in his report in several big brown papers called “Manila papers” which his classmates taped on the writing boards. See a blog post about the report here.
Hubby helped by buying souvenir items as well as food samplers for the classmates to have. These items were a big hit!
Much as I wanted the children to use technology in their studies, doing the low tech and manual labor way would not make them none the wiser.

I’m ready for summer with my new pair of Dupé flipflops! The pair below is Dupé Chique. Woot!
I love the way this pair feels on my feet. The Dupe slippers has fish scale pattern on the sole for better flexibility. The new logo is on the sole and strap of each of the pair. It is 100% rubber.
The heel massager is pure bliss because it gives me a feeling of cushion.
This particular Dupé has Gel XHP which means H = high comfort, X = expanded fully sealed coating for better flexibility and the use of P = Penta polymer material for durability.
Why should you get a pair of Dupé slippers? Continue Reading »

I’ve noticed my feet are a bit swollen after I sit for a few hours while online. I feel bad about it. Yesterday though, because I was out half the day, my feet weren’t as swollen as these were the other day.
Hmmm… weight loss pills that work to the rescue for me? Yes, apparently, if one has weight issues, the feet get swollen.
Perhaps I need to do more of my Zumba and Hoopnotica hula-hooping routines whether I stay at home the whole day or I go out to work. As for the Zumba, nah, I don’t go to a class because the “official” class is held a bit far from where I live, I just improvise and dance move to the beat. Super fun!

I’m not saying I have a perfect syntax. I don’t.
BUT!!!
For example, I will probably not write like “I will read about slow cooking online last night when the electricity was stopped” when I could write “Last night, I was reading about slow cooking when the electric power was cut off”
Before I click the “Publish” button I read my entries first to see what could be wrong. I may feel what I wrote was ok but sometimes I see mistakes that has not been edited and so I go back and edit.
If in case one is concerned about sentence construction, there are several ways to check through the grammar police: Continue Reading »
