My Thoughts for the May 10 Elections

Posted by abie on 11:13 PM in ,
It is just 6 days before election and do you really think that COMELEC is ready? My sister is a watcher for one of the candidates and they conducted a testing of the PCOS machines yesterday and guess what, almost all the PCOS machines delivered to that school is not reading the votes right when they compared it to the manual count. Do you think they still have time to fix it before the elections on May 10?

I doubt it. To think that it is really not the real deal automation as what they eliminated with this system is just the manual counting of votes. I don’t think there is some real hard core programming involved here as from what I understand, PCOS machines are just used to read and tally the votes and it is not even working.

Will they declare a failure of election? So what will happen now? Honestly I am scared of what the outcome of the elections will be and I am really starting to loose hope for our country.

Imagining About Caribbean Hotels: We Can’t Wait to Hit The Beach

Posted by abie on 12:22 PM in
I so miss the beach. Since I am pregnant, we have been refraining from traveling long distance because of my condition. But my family loves the sun and the sand so much that my daughter has been bugging us to take her to the beach this summer. If only I am not pregnant, I would have said yes to my dear princess right away. And besides I tried calling all the resorts and they are all fully booked already for all weekends until June. So I promised her that once I give birth, we will definitely take her to the beach and who know, if budget permits, we might try out the Ocho Rios hotels. Imagining the calming sound of the waves of the ocean while enjoying spa service or simply watching my family having fun as they enjoy the beach and the different water activities is just priceless. Imagining this makes me excited already that I started checking out different caribbean hotels. I particularly love Breezes Resorts, one of the all inclusive hotels in the Caribbean. What I love about the all-inclusive package is that I don’t have to worry about anything as soon a we reached the resort as everything is included in the package - meals (from breakfast buffets to dinner), entertainment., land and water sports, even hotel taxes and airport transfer. This means that once we reached the resort, all we have to do is just have fun, relax and enjoy. I can’t wait to feel the sand on my feet again, lounge in the beach chair and enjoy the heat of the sun and enjoy a bonding moment with my precious family.

Lucky number 4

Posted by abie on 5:24 AM in ,
Lucky number 4. Yup, four is our lucky number as I checked our housing loan and we have four months left and we are finish paying for our house and lot in Bulacan.

This means that we can have another investment. We initially want to invest on another real estate property but we thought that this time we can try gold investment and buy gold coins instead.

Gold is a very stable and good investment. Gold doesn’t depreciate in time and since it is widely accepted, we can easily convert it to cash. It is so easy to store also as it only occupies a small space so we can store it in a safe at home or in an independent bank.

We checked out the site of United States Gold Bureau and they have experienced staff who can help us with our gold investments. I am sure we will never go wrong if we choose gold as another form of our investment.

Our DZI Bracelets

Posted by abie on 5:22 AM in ,
Hubby and I were finally able to go to Binondo yesterday to buy our dzi bracelets. Ever since Jacqui introduced us to the world of feng shui, all of our friend got really hooked as it seems to be really bringing luck for them. LOL.

So yesterday morning we left Bela with our yaya and troop to Binondo. We left late than what we initially planned as I still have to do some errands so we just went straight to our favorite store there and we’re not able to buy any pasalubongs from Eng Bee Tin. I don’t have my Iphone with me now where the picture of our bracelet is saved but I will post it here soon.

Hope with prayers and with our lucky charms, 2010 will really be a good year for our family.

4:30 AM

Posted by abie on 5:18 AM in , ,
We were out the whole day yesterday and when I reached home, we have no Internet connection. I have tons and tone of work to finish online but I guess luck is not on my side so I just tuck myself to bed and went to sleep. I set my alarm at 4:30 AM so I can wake up early and finish work. I still can’t access the Internet from my laptop so I called SMART and they reported that we have good connection in our area. I have to wake up hubby too (bad me) to fix check our connection and thank goodness he was able to make it work.

Now I am typing away and rushing to finish work before its deadline at 8 AM. I hate rushing….Next time I know better and I should finish work first before prioritizing other things.
