A Bankable Investment Since the Old Generation

I have an Uncle who in my childhood days often tells me stories of Japanese soldiers and how they struggled through the period that Filipinos were under the Japan regime. It wasn’t a funny story to tell but my Uncle was so proud of himself because he survived the death March and was able to escape the wrath of the war. Of course he’s always the great young Filipino then and as I remember myself listening to his never-ending stories I’m beginning to smile to myself because through listening to him I learned many things. He told me how the old folks are so keen on investing in gold and because the war doesn’t respect anything including your personal belongings they used to hide their gold underneath their house. They dug themselves a hiding place during the most frightening moments and they hide their gold jewelleries there.

Well as a child I was really amazed at his stories and was thankful that I listened to him because that’s a true personal experience and not just the ones you see in movies or read in books. Some of the things he told me are still going on today, not the war but the gold investment. Now we can buy gold coins for our investment but instead of keeping it under our house we can store them safely in our storage box with vault or have it safely deposited in bank. It’s a proven and tested investment of all times because it appreciates value over the years.

Early Birthday Celebration

We had an early celebration of my Mom’s birthday at Lake Villa Resort. It was made more enjoyable as it was attended by family and our relatives in our hometown in Laguna. I’m so happy that we decided to make it a swimming birthday celebration as it’s so relaxing to do it that way. Well even if I’m tired from all the cooking in the house and in the resort it’s worth it all. Anyway after lunchtime we had all the time in the world to swim, chat, take pictures or just rest and view the pretty scenery by the lake.

After so many years I saw DH relax and had a good time without thinking of the hardship in his work. I and the kids were so glad he was able to come with us now. We enjoyed the kids’ pool that much that we stayed there for more than an hour sitting there and relaxing with the splash of fountain on our faces. Just too tired to post pictures now, maybe I’ll just post when I have a time.

The Pasture Test

Just thought of taking this test just for knowing some of my inner me that sometimes only a test like this would know lol! My daughter is so fond of taking personality test, she got it from me because I'm really fond of test like this. I even took some personality and psychological test in my work previously. Then I used the tests on our applicants. Why? Because I don't just test the skills and knowledge of the applicants as I also want to know if their mental and emotional capabilities are in normal condition. I know that tests like this one somehow reflects a part of us. So here's the result of my test:
You Are Poetic


You see beauty, colors, and inspiration where other people see nothing.

You are a gentle and sensitive soul that craves love and understanding.

You take pride in your interesting ideas, and you feel wounded if others challenge you too fiercely.

You feel most comfortable in places where you know everyone. It's likely you are still in touch with your childhood friends.

Comments - Cozy Days

It’s true that nothing beats the nature for giving us wonderful relaxation after being tired from work and household chores. It doesn’t have to be in a faraway place to enjoy the nature because it’s in your own backyard or patio only. You just have some creativity on how you’re going to have your Outdoor furniture look as inviting and relaxing as ever. The comfortable look of your furniture should always be in your mind because if you’re going to rest there at the end of the day it should be the most comfortable place on earth.

Happy Memorial Day weekend to all who celebrate it :-)

And...here we go!

1. Barbecue-- the best food to take on a picnic.
2. Summer is fun but you have to take care of yourself or you'll have rashes, sunburns and dark color.
3. My niece love her new pink flip flops.
4. To love someone is to commit yourself to a lot of risks, it's ok as long as he's worthy of it, love is like a long hike, at the end of it you'll have a reward of having achieved a goal.
6. When I crave food, it's usually garden fresh salad and penne creme.

It’s good to know that when you need some legal help there are people that can defend you with the help of their expertise. It’s bad that you’ve been charged with a crime you didn’t do but it’s worst if your lawyer wouldn’t win the case. In cases like this you must be ready always with an experienced criminal attorney to help you get out of the mess you’re in. Not all charges are true and we all deserved a fair trial.

Starting Up a Business

It’s a good step towards success to venture into a good profitable business if you’ve earned enough money and ready to face the challenges of setting up your own business. My friend worked abroad for few years to save money to build his own business. When he has saved what he thought was good enough he returned and started making feasibility study and plans. He has been so busy these days finishing the startup process and looking for asset based lenders just in case he run out funds for his business though for now he’s stable enough to open his business and run it smoothly. I just wish that he’ll never be tired with facing the regular business’ stress and problems. I know he can make it to succeed in his chosen field.

New Head of the Town

I had a chat with my cousin and she talked about how disappointed they were for losing their candidate in their town. They were also afraid because the spouse of the newly elected head of the town is an Asian foreigner and really wanted to have the leadership in the town through his wife. They also noticed that they’ve carried personal micro security cameras in the polling precints just to be sure that everything is under control and monitored.

I just wish that inspite of it all they will try to do good things in my cousin’s town place. I’m praying that despite racial differences they will adhere to all rules and regulations on having the leadership of the town and prove that they can also be like Filipinos.
