lifestyle check

Oct 30 2008 Published by Alexis under Random Entries

Some people are puzzled why their faces / skin has breakouts otherwise called as zits or pimples. The answer is pretty simple, watch what you eat, avoid too much dust and pollution, try to be stress free, clean your face, and get enough sleep. If you have skin problems and it not in any way related to some kind of hereditary thing, do a lifestyle check, ask yourself questions like do I eat oily and fatty foods a lot, or do I neglect to wash my face, have I been too stressed out lately? If the answer is yes, I guess it’s about time you change your lifestyle and make use of some acne treatment for faster results. One more thing, sweat up! That would definitely help clean out those clogged pores.

a second chance for people with bad credit

Oct 21 2008 Published by Alexis under Random Entries

There are certain companies who offer both Personal Loans and Auto Title Loans Loans even for those who have a not so good credit history and for those People with Bad Credit. They are those companies who consider giving those people chances to rebuild their credit standing. Although these loans may have a alittle higher interest than usual, at least they exist, and I personally thik that it’s good enough, otherwise what would happen to those people who have bad credit? What do you think? Such deals are like opportunities to be grabbed and when given that second chance, do a good turn and pay on time. Start doing things right.

kickstart your own business

Oct 18 2008 Published by Alexis under Random Entries

Small Business Loans are really helpful when it comes to starting out your very own business. With the failing economy and the ongoing crisis, it’s really hard to find people who would be willing to lend you their own hard earned money for a Small Business Loan. We can’t just rely on our calaries or compensations from workin in a company or for other businesses. It’s still better to try to make it big on our own by starting even with just a small capital. So if you need some help with Small Business Financing, just check out  ezunsecured.com

the joy of having your own little package of happiness

Oct 17 2008 Published by Alexis under Random Entries

Whenever I see toys and baby clothes, I get torn between being happy and being sad. Happy because I adore kids so much, in fact I’d so love to have one in the near future. Seeing my friends and relatives having their own families and kids makes me smile. But at the same time I get kind of sad because as much as I’d like to have one now, it’s not yet possible. I already found the person whom I’d want to li8ve my life and share that happiness with. For now, I just take pride and joy of seeing how my niece and nephew are growing as intelligent and healthy kids, and giving them gifts is one way of showing them how much I want them to be happy. One day I will also feel that joy of having my own little package of happiness.

some things are better done online

Oct 17 2008 Published by Alexis under Random Entries

There are some things that are better done online, like business transactions, marketing, selling, even communicating for less. Most companies have already applied Internet marketing. That’s why if you noticed that sometimes you get emails from a site that provides auto insurance quote online, or what have you. Even books are paperless now because there are also e books and audio books being sold online. It’s a great thing showing continuous innovation in technology. One day, most of the things and transaction will be done online, even those that used to require physical presence. Although, of course there are still things that can only be done by physically interacting with people and going places.

Dad's old notebook

Oct 17 2008 Published by Alexis under Random Entries

My other notebook is now with dad, and his old one he handed down to my mom. Well, my mom isn’t really that much of techie person. She just uses the computer to communicate with family, friends, check out some news, and most of the time for searching for new recipes and other stuff that has something to do with home. Even if my mom isn’t very techie, I want her to have a good working and fast notebook. So, I told my brother that perhaps he could give the memory cards a check and see what he can do to upgrade them. He won’t be home until Christmas though. Made me wonder if I’d be home for Christmas too.

Chitchat with Adi

Oct 17 2008 Published by Alexis under Random Entries

I got to talk to Adi and we talked about his son, my nephew Ollie and his gaming hub business, which reminds me of things like Cat5e Keystone jack, wirez, etc. Anyway, I think I have been so left out that I didn’t know my nephew could actually walk and talk already. Well, time flies so fast indeed. Last year seems just like yesterday. The only thing I hope for right now is getting well and going home. I really miss home. I wanna go home now. But I know there are things that I must do. I guess I just need a little more patience… I really miss home. Talking to Adi made me think of a lot of things too. I want to have my own kid, and see her/him grow. I ned to get well, I wanna go home.

Holidays at Grannys

Oct 16 2008 Published by Alexis under Random Entries

What I love most about spending holiday season at my granny’s place is the overflowing yummy food. I just love her holiday appetizers and all that’s in her recipe. I can’t wait til meal time is up before I got down or get back home from the nearby beach, just to enjoy every meal that she prepares. Even the rest of the family would agree with me, that one of the biggest reasons why we love spending holiday’s with granny aside from her warm welcome kisses and hugs, are the most delicious food that she prepares for us. i don’t know how she does it or what her secret behind the mouth watering dishes, all I know is that I’ve never known anyone who cooks as good as my grandma. When I get home, the first thing I’d do is organize a family gathering at granny’s place again. Bu t this time, I’ll ask grandma to teach me how to cook great food for everyone to enjoy.

Suggestions for Healing the Hurt

Oct 14 2008 Published by Alexis under Random Entries

Dark Clouds Shall Pass

Dark Clouds Shall Pass

Suggestions for Healing the Hurt is an article that was originally written by Victor Parachin of Tulsa, Oklahoma. I really find this helpful and I’ve shared it with a very close friend who have lost his loved ones. I’d like to share this to everyone, most especially to those who have experienced or are experiencing the same thing. I know it’s easier said than done, but here are eleven suggestions for Healing the Hurt, that could at least serve as a guiding light for those in the dark.

Choose to Heal. From the very beginning, make a decision that you will heal — that you will not only recover from this loss but also be a better person because of it.

Find caring people. Establish a network of family, friends, neighbors, colleagues, and people in grief support group. Share your sorrow with these people. If someone offers to run an errand for you, accept the offer graciously.

Give yourself time to heal. Expect that recovery will take longer than you think. Grief recovery takes about two years for most people. While some have experienced peace within a year or less, don’t feel there’s something wrong with you if it takes longer.

Resume your daily routines. Go back to work after a few days. Keep up your involvement in civic and religious organizations. These are important links that will lessen the risk of your becoming isolated.

Trust God for help. Some grief-stricken people conclude that God has abandoned them. Meet this temptation with bible verses that describe God’s help and healing. A good example is Psalm 146:8 “The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down.”

Keep in touch with your doctor. Research shows that grief makes people susceptible to physical illness as well as to sleep disturbances, and eating problems. If you experience any of these, consult your doctor right away.

Accept your feelings. The loss of a loved one often generates intense feelings of anger, despair, depression, and loneliness– to name a few. Don’t be alarmed. These emotions are all a natural part of the grieving process. Most people who lose a loved one experience them. The intensity will diminish with time.

Forget “normal” for a while. Death turns life upside down for the surviving family members. With funeral arrangements to make, legal matters to attend to, and insurance forms to complete, you can expect that your daily life will not follow the usual, familiar patterns.

Stay away from certain people. Avoid those who are judgmental about your grieving style. Stay away from people who minimize your loss with trite cliches such as “You’ll get over it,” “It was for the best,” and “Be glad it’s over.”

Delay major changes. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, don’t move, quit your job, make new investment, sell part of the estate, etc. Wait at least six months; a year is better. Then you’ll have a better perspective on what needs to be changed.

Know when to get help. If crying spells, social withdrawal, and otehr symptoms of grief persists beyond one year, seek help of a qualified counselor. Your doctor or your minister; priest, or rabbi can help you find one who’s right for you.
