Name power

Your Name’s Power is Optimism

Your name’s power is that it helps you be optimistic. Your name conveys both endurance and devotion. People who meet you can’t help but think you are fiery. You try to live your life in a solid, connected way.

On getting a laptop

Been blogging for more than a year now and just started a fulltime home-based online job last month but I still don’t have my own computer (poor me!). As much as I want to get a new desktop or a laptop, it’s out of the budget or should I say we don’t have that much moolah (despite the fact that we are both earning). Anyway, I’ve been planning to get a laptop (so I could return this desktop I am using to PILs) so I told my boss about that concern. He then sent me a link of a netbook computer that’s on sale. It’s a way cheaper to get it there than here! The shipping cost from the store to him and him to Philippines would cost me around $55 (according to him because he’s been sending laptops to the employees here). Hmmm…a bit expensive. That made me think of checking with buy[dot]com where shipping is free! I just watched their video ad in youtube and it’s saying shipping is free! What a great deal. Let me check if the netbook that I wanted to buy is available at buy[dot]com so I could inform my boss about it. Then maybe next month he could order it for me. Yay!

No ordinary day

I am about to say that the past few days pass by just an ordinary day but I remember I’ve read it somewhere that no such day as ORDINARY day. Everyday is special in one way or another. 

Anyway, last Monday was Araw ng Dabaw. There’s a civic parade in the morning but we didn’t shoot as planned. Ace call the day off because he worked from Monday to Sunday BUT his superiors kept on texting them (his fellow officemates who took a leave on that day) to report or else he will email their manager. Ace wasn’t even startled. But he did his work in my PC the whole morning…grrr. Then he emailed his report afterwards (that’s what he’s doing when on leave, he works at home). So, we missed the civic parade and watched it in TV instead.
