Biboy Loves Numbers

After Kumon’s two week free trial, Biboy is official enrolled to its Math program. His diagnostic test results says that he won’t be starting on the starting level (7A) but instead will start on the next level (6A). And just after 20 days, he finished level 6A and will move to level 5A next week. He can now count dots up to 20 by just the glance of his eyes. Inside the class, he’s using number boards and flash cards under time pressure to get him used to number sequence. I hope Biboy will be just like his me, who loves numbers so much.

Weight Loss and Weight Gain

There are literally thousands of weight loss success stories online about people who made dramatic results in dieting.
The seemingly endless cycles of weight loss and weight gain by some dieters, called yo-yo dieting, may have serious and even fatal health consequences.   According to a study done, people who yo-yo between loss and gain of more than 25 pounds [11 kg] run a greater risk of dying prematurely than those who smoke cigarettes. People should not undertake a diet unless they are really ready not just to lose weight but to keep it off indefinitely.

Baguio City

Horse back riding is not very popular in the Philippines but horse racing is. There are only a few places wherein you can enjoy riding horses for a small fee. One is in Tagaytay where the climate is mush colder compared to Manila. And the other place is Baguio city which is the summer capital of the country. We haven’t been to Baguio in more than 5 years and we are planning to visit the place hopefully before the year ends when it is really cold there. Biboy can try wearing his equestrian apparel while riding a horse in Burnham Park. I know he’ll look good in pictures wearing it. I also wanted to go to the strawberry farms and teach Biboy how those berries are picked fresh. Maybe a 3 night stay in Baguio will be Ok. Here we go Baguio.

Additional Schooling or Not?

How much education is necessary to earn a living? It seems in many lands that the level of schooling needed to support oneself is higher than it was a few years ago. Many college graduates even pursue online degree programs that will boost their chances of getting employed.
However, many have provided well for themselves and their families without the benefit of a college degree. Some of these have taken courses at vocational schools, technical schools, or community colleges, at a minimal investment of time and money. Others have developed a trade or a service without any form of specialized training at all. With a record of dependability, they have managed to maintain steady employment.

Toxic Beauty

Many young women are looking for a wrinkle filler that will make those wrinkles invisible. But do you know that there is a cosmetic procedure that involves injecting the deadly toxin botulin to eliminate facial wrinkles? The procedure uses the toxin which paralyzes selected facial muscles, which in a few days lose their tone, causing wrinkles to flatten out. The treatment lasts for about four months and leaves a patient with a more relaxed, youthful appearance. However, there is a toll exacted. Users lose their wrinkles, but they also lose their ability to raise their brows in surprise, to have a smile spread up to their eyes, and to frown. It is a matter of being prepared to “paralyze parts of your face for the beauty of youth,”. You wanna try it!

Biboy can Text!!!

Our little boy loves to use his dady’s celphone.  He knows how to play games, take pictures and even shoot videos.  He can navigate his dad’s mobile phone like a 25 year old.   Last month, Daddy joked on teaching Biboy how to send text messages (SMS).  He gave Biboy at least a month to learn how to text but lo and behold, he was able to do it less than 20 minutes.  I can’t believe it but it’s true. We were all surprised and so his dad.  Biboy now sends text messages to me while I’m in the office.  He texts his mama and papa in Ilocos and lolo and lola in Las Pinas.  And maybe soon he’ll text his Titas in London and in Los Angeles.   Tita, if you could, please send me some celphone load. Or maybe get me my first phone. - Biboy

Insurance for Us

Last December 2009, I was able to upgrade my life insurance policy with my Sun Life insurance agent. I showed Morning the new plan and he thinks that this one has the right coverage for me and better benefits as well. The policy is a combination of life insurance and savings. Morning and I always believe in life insurance because we all don’t know what will happen to us tomorrow. We are also contemplating on getting our little boy his own life insurance as well.

My Fave Pillow

Last month, i had a terrible case of allergies. There were skin rashes on my legs and it’s very itchy. I also had difficulty breathing. I remember my doctor told me that this is cause by allergens inside our house. We always try to keep our rooms and house clean so that it will be free from dirt and dust that might aggravate my allergies. So we bought vacuum cleaners to do the job. We also need to increase our allergy bedding protection against dust mites, bed bugs and pet dander. Morning keeps on telling me to get rid of my very old, worn out, favorite pillow and replace it with new one because he thinks that is where I get my allergies. I will terribly miss my pillow.
