she adds my jelousy over high speed internet

As a blogger, I put great emphasis on speedy internet. For me, it is a vital requirement not just to update my blog, but to increase productivity. And, one key to achieve blogging success is through having audience. But, it is only attainable by becoming an audience to other bloggers. With that, it is a pain to wait for ages to load websites of other blogger. That is why it is significant to subscribe to a fast and reliable ISP provider.

For now, I can’t help myself from feeling jealous over other bloggers that has speedy internet connection. I’m actually struggling with my slow ISP, but it seems I can’t do anything about it for the moment as I have a contract to complete.

To add to my jealousy, one of my blogger friends mentioned that she really like her Cox internet subscription. Basically, she is subscribed to Cox bundle where she gets cable, internet, and telephone services that way she gets savings from the combining the three products in one bill. Other than that, she also gets the convenience of onetime payment.

Cox cable is also an interesting product. The company offers up to 240 channels, whereas my subscription is only limited to 30 unstable channels. I say unstable for the fact that some of our channels change without prior notice from the cable company. Aside from the 240 channels, Cox cable deals also offer free HD Programming, Premium Movie Channels and Specialized Programming Tiers and so much more.

Well, those are just few of the things my friend disclosed in our four hour chat. There are more to that, but I prefer to make my story short. I think I won’t have to visit the site as my friend already enumerates the facts to me. The only thing left for me to do is order a package. However, I can’t do that now as I am continents away from them. I’ll just keep that information in mind. It might come in handy the next few years.

my unique Vday and birthday gift for mom

I never thought I’ll be very tired for the last few months. Trying to fit everything in my schedule makes me go gaga. All my energy is exhausted and all I want to do at home is to sleep. Weekends are not an excuse for me to relax.

Yesterday, I was able talked to my mom. I think it’s been two months since the last time I hear her voice. Well, she called not only for Valentine’s Day celebration, but for her 50th birthday and my birthday celebration in just one month. She is asking me to go home even for a day. She planned to host a party on the 24th. For those who doesn’t know my big day is on the 24th, mom’s b-day is on the 23rd. That’s just a day and we could celebrate it in one day.

Sadly, I can’t because I still don’t qualify for a vacation leave. In that sense, I have to give her a good and unique gift that she hasn’t received yet. I remember that she is keeping an old 8mm film of their marriage, her first and second childbirth and so on. I want to convert that 8mm film to DVD.

I know that she will love the idea as she keeps on watching video clips stored in DVD of my younger siblings. Formatting their marriage FILM TO DVD will enable her to watch the moments of how her married life started. For sure she’s not the only one who will enjoy my gift, but my father as well.

Before, I could order a film to DVD transfer; I must first secure the film from the house without them knowing it. Going back home is not an option because that would be too obvious. All I could do is to make arrangement with my siblings next to me. I hope they will not notice that I took their film away from them or else they will surely freak out. And if caught, then that would not be a surprise.

easier ways to get out of bed in the morning

We all know that there are people who have difficulties getting out of the bed in the morning. But, there are ways to combat this problem.

Make sure to wake up the same hour every day including weekends. It only means no sleeping in late on Saturdays and Sundays because that messes up our energy levels. Instead of waking up at noon on weekends, we should stick to the same hour as the rest of the week and then make up for lost sleep with a nap.

Forget that the snooze button exists. The extra nine, 18, or 27 minutes snooze won’t offer deep, restful sleep. You’re better off setting your alarm for the time you want to wake up. Allowing yourself to sleep until then will help you feel less tired once you do step out of bed. In fact, studies have shown in the past that the few minutes of sleep we get in between the first time the alarm rings and the time we actually get out of bed do nothing in terms of making us feel more rested.

Try to drink a glass of water first things first. This will help stay hydrated and boost metabolism, which means we should feel more alert right after gulping the water down. Waking up with music instead of a regular (and annoying) alarm clock is also a great idea, because that should bring us instantly into a better mood.

Eat a protein-rich breakfast. If you eat a carb-heavy breakfast like pancakes or a muffin, you’ll end up feeling sluggish, since your body has to work hard to break them down. Reach for a protein-rich breakfast instead. Yogurt, eggs, smoothies, or milk with a high-protein cereal are excellent choices. Protein will make you feel full and give you sustained energy until lunch.

an interesting investment option

Even in my college days, I am already a business minded person. I tried selling DVD’s, CD’s and fixed computer. It doesn’t only make me happy to practice my passion, but I also earn money to make both ends meet. However, I never learned much business terms because I am a nursing graduate. It is an irony that I want to build my own computer store, yet I am a nurse by profession.

Now that I am not yet earning in my nursing profession, I am currently searching for the best possible investment. I’ve heard option is a good choice for diversifying wealth. Although I don’t have wealth to diversify, I am still interested to learn about it.

Trading in option gives investors the flexibility to place bets on very specific market outcomes. It’s a very versatile kind of investment where investors can adapt or adjust their position according to any situation that arises. They can do everything to protect their capital from suffering loss. It can make very large returns in small period of time, but can also lose the same amount if not careful. And it is a very risky very for the inexperienced like me. But, there are options alerts that help investor decide whether trade on a particular period. It guides even the savvy investor.

I am overwhelmed to the Options picks and alerts I am currently reading. Although I am novice to the terminology used, it gives me ideas of the many advantages of investing in options. However, the articles I read don’t stop me from researching more. It even propels me to dig more and to look for more options picks, strategies and terminologies.

Hopefully, in the next few years I have the right risk capital to invest in options. For now, I’ll continue honing my option vocabulary. I will try to find the most comprehensive option blogs and websites to learn techniques from experts. So that when the right time comes, I will not experience tremendous challenges.

unsuccessful invitation to NY

Last December I received an invitation from my friend, who happens to be a physician in New York, to spend New York Holidays for the Christmas. Actually the sisters are our landlady before we moved in here. And a good relationship transpire as they are really good people. They never treated us as strangers. Even for a short period of time, we already feel that we belong to their family.

However, Holidays New York isn’t a good idea at that time as we struggle to get our debts done from my surgery. We don’t have insurance. The only way to get out of the hospital is to drain our savings account and by borrowing money.

I am optimistic that when the water is clear we can spend our next Holidays to New York. Hopefully the invitation is still open despite a year has gone by. I will tell her everything that occurs last year. I was not able to divulge everything because for sure they will worry to death. I envision them to be calling me (international calling) every now and then. And that is not a good thing during Christmas season.

At least now when I tell them, it has passed by and I am fully recovered. But, I still have to save for our transportation and food. I am pretty sure that I have an instant room accommodation in their house. Hehehe!
