Hurray! Red Mobile now services 2G phones!

I am rejoicing because Red Mobile can now be used in 2G phones! Now more people can enjoy their lowest rate of P 0.50/min using any phone. I had my Red Mobile sim for a few months now, even had my friends and family convinced to switch to Red Mobile, they did but was disappointed that it was for 3G phones then. I end up being the only one using Red Mobile because I am the only who have a 3G phone. But now we have a reason to celebrate! My friends can start using their Red Mobiles! Do you know that you can call anywhere in the Philippines at P0.50/min if you use Red Mobile? They also have the cheapest/lowest call rates around. Since in our country cellphones are a must, and as Filipinos we value communication be it with our family and friends, we are always on the lookout for the cheapest/lowest rate for prepaid that any provider can give. And Red Mobile can provide that for us, for red to red voice and video calls is only 50 centavos per minute. You don’t have to worry that c

A Last look at Summer

Being a college professor, summer is a time to recharge and learn new things. It’s actually when I made my plans for the whole year with the coming school year as a basis for the activities and goals I want to achieve. One of the “perks” of being a teacher is having a two-month summer vacation no pay off course but at least you can do anything in that two months and go back to your job by June. I usually plan my summer activities at the start of the year, giving me ample time to save for it. This year I get to go to the beach! Puerto Galera. I am not a beach person, hate the salty water, the hassle just to get there, and swimming pool is just fine for me.   But this year our faculty department planned the outing as a form of professional development-team building activity and with minimal fees. I decided to join since I’ve never been to Puerto Galera and to show support for my department. I brought my son too, since he have never been to a beach before and he wants to go to Borac

Playing around in my Sandbox

I have been hearing about Sandbox from my friends for weeks now. I got so intrigued that I decided to visit the site, saw David Cook on the first page and sign up.

A Love that Lasts A Lifetime

I attended my uncle’s 50 th Wedding Anniversary last Saturday, May 23, 2009. They renewed their marriage vows at the Our Lady of Mercy, at Novaliches, Q.C. I was hesitant to attend the event for I was thinking we are not that close and I don’t have a “special reason to be there”. But since I was available and would meet with relatives I have not seen for a very long time I accompanied my parents to the event. My uncle Liling is my mother’s brother and my father stood as their primary sponsor. Celebrating a golden wedding anniversary is a momentous event, not everyone would have the opportunity to celebrate it. I remember my grandparents having plans to celebrate it but my grandfather died a few months before they can even start planning. Being a guest on a grand event like this I realize is a privilege, you can’t help but feel the triumph and gratefulness they felt toward God that they we still able to celebrate they love after fifty years. The guests were composed of family (

Buying or Selling Something? AyosDito!

One of my goals this year is to buy a car. I even allocated time and money for driving lessons. Ask friends and family for advice and got thousands of advices from buying second hand, brand new cars or even ditch the whole idea of having one. I even collected fliers from different car manufacturers, and consulted the internet on buy & sale websites. One of the websites that I found very interesting and very useful is AyosDito.ph . The website is quite new, and shows the map of the Philippines you just have to click the region/location where you want buy or sell goods in. The map is interactive that it highlights the region you chose. Once your in the area you clicked you can start putting up ads or browse through items on sale. Since I was looking to buy cars , I clicked on the cars categories and put the parameters I want. One feature I love about AyosDito.ph is the images! You can view the cars on sale while scrolling down the list. Clicking on the title of the car yo

9 Reasons Why I Love my Husband

It’s our  9 th  wedding anniversary today, May 6, 2009 . Looking back all I can say I am one fortunate woman to be loved by this awesome man named Samuel. We hit a few rocky spots early in our marriage but luckily we survived it. Today, all I can say is that we are more in-love each other and is more passionate with each other in and out of bed. Everyday I thank the Lord for giving me my husband to love and to cherish.   I would like to share the 9 reasons why I love my husband (In no particular order)  I can pursue any career I want and he gives his 100% support .  When I graduated in my masters degree he thought I would go back to working in the office but I decided to enroll in a baking class instead and continue working as a teacher. He accepted that and continue to give me moral support to any career decision I take. He calmly accepts any hair color and hairstyle I decide to sport.  I love coloring my hair and just loves getting curly hair. My hair color is ash brown now and the h
