There’s this wonderful feeling that friends, in real life and online friends are feeling right now: joy and pride. No, these are not detergent brands, but “proud” feelings.

Why? Some of these friends have children who graduated wit honors. One friend even wrote in a chat room where we converge that is is so happy putting medals on her son who just graduated and has been accepted in all four top universities he applied to. One dear friend has also a graduating daughter given a distinction with the sport she excelled in. I know all those early and late hours they spent for practice has been forgotten.

Beyond the certificates of recognition, the trophies and medals and the gifts, children who worked hard to have grades better than their classmates should be given affirmation that they can do what they want, be what they want and achieve their goals and dreams because they give their best.

I hope I would feel the same when my children go up the stage for their graduation day 🙂

Below is an article that I -> Treasure Jar, wrote for the now offline internet magazine, WMP.ph and I am posting the commissioned and paid for Celebrating Wedding Anniversaries article here in it’s entirety because I am the author. Someone else copied the whole article and posted it in a site full of other articles copied from different sites. Just like the other article I wrote, Wedding Favor Ideas, this was copied without permission. No, I will not link the site that copied this one.

Sigh…

Celebrating wedding anniversaries has been somewhat predictable: a romantic dinner date at a new restaurant, a bouquet of flowers, the latest tech gadget, or a piece of jewelry are some of the common gifts couples have given each other for the longest time.

By JCF, Treasure Jar

But gifts should not always be expensive. A heartfelt letter or a card, a handmade project, or a homemade special recipe could be alternative options.

Below are several other wonderful things to do as a couple when celebrating wedding anniversaries:

Take a vacation together. It’s not a problem if the budget is tight; planning is the key to get the best travel deals. Escape for a few days from the hustle and bustle of your daily routine and rekindle that romance you shared on your first year together! For the busy couple, a romantic getaway can be an overnight stay at bed and breakfast places.

Have an adventure together that you will surely remember, like trekking on a nearby trail, or camping in the woods!

Instead of spending buying separate gifts for each other, why not make a purchase that you will both enjoy? How about that new exercise machine to keep you fit?

Share your blessings with others! Arrange a charity event and spend time with kids at a local hospital, or go green by organizing a tree planting activity.

There are no right or wrong ways to celebrate your wedding anniversary as long as you’re having fun. A nice way to cherish the memories is to build an anniversary scrapbook that you’ll update annually; by the time you reach your 50th year, imagine how nice it will be to reminisce together!

Google Goggles gets rid of your keyboard/keypad usage and uses your camera to search the internet.

Ohhh! That was what I saw while  researching for htc desire reviews. Google goggles got me excited and who wouldn’t be excited? No need to key-in specific keywords, just take a photo of something and Google Goggles the info for you.

Skeptical?

I’m sure a lot of guys out there would love to give this mean machine a try. The car? A Porsche 911.

Why, even our President got himself a pre-owned Porsche but that is a different story altogether.

A car is a car but a Porsche? Who would call a Porsche a car? It is a Porsche, whether it’s a 911, a GT3, Carrera GT or even the Cayenne.

It feels like it has testosterone supplements in the gasoline that keeps it revving. But nah, the machine is superb and the brand wouldn’t come a long way if that’s not the case. Even little guys who love fast cars love Porsche.

Walter Roehrl, a rally legend during the 70s and 80s and a senior test driver for Porsche said that the engine so so good and “That is the reason I like this car, because it’s not the power, it’s the response of this car.”

Showbizlandia had been abuzzed about that billboard that didn’t look right. This issue sparked a verbal spat and the said photo is seen in this magazine feature:

To those who saw this in a billboard along the metro’s busiest highway (that includes me, though I wasn’t able to take a photo because I was dumbfounded) were quite surprised and probably asked a lot of questions. Did she have a non-invasive procedure? Did she use a lipo 6? How rigid was the fitness program and diet, if there were any?

I see nothing wrong in the picture BUT as my children exclaimed, SC doesn’t look like that on television so why is she pictured as such? Uh-oh.

Is it really thank you MF or thank you Adobe?
