Back from being AWOL on Feb 5, 2012 in blog off-topic Gasp. I've ignored my blogs for so long. I know the Christmas season was especially busy since December 25 and January 1 both fall on Sundays, but I really did not expect that I would not have time even for blogging. So even if I did see some gre...
Insurance, again on Dec 20, 2011 in insurance family It's the time of the year when we are being charged again for our premiums on our insurance plans. Truth be told, I need a good insurance agent who would remind me about these deadlines and would explain to me things like cd annuity rates in laymen'...
Holidays in the Metro on Dec 20, 2011 in Christmas For some reason, Christmas this year just doesn't feel as joyous as the previous years. Maybe it's because Christmas Day and New Year's Day fall on Sundays, which mean that there is practically no additional free day. Quite a bummer actually. Whil...
Online Christmas shopping! on Dec 6, 2011 in shopping internet It really is not easy to shop for Christmas gifts when you just do not have the time to do so.

No prohibited drugs on Oct 25, 2011 in not just about the money It seems like a no-brainer that one should not get involved with prohibited drugs -- to put it bluntly, they do bad things to your body at a high price and you develop a dependence to it. Getting out of it is not easy too, there are simply not too m...
Live a little on Oct 20, 2011 in not just about the money I feel bad that we do not have the budget yet to buy the things that we WANT. I know we should be thankful that we can now more or less finance out needs like food, clothing and shelter, but luxuries and wants like an all terrain with atv power stee...
Online shopping for Christmas on Oct 20, 2011 in gifts Christmas is knocking on our doors, so some people have started on their Christmas lists. Now, more and more people are turning to online shopping as an alternative way to buy presents as people have less and less time to go shopping in the malls.
Who's using my computer? on Oct 19, 2011 in computer One of the reasons why I could not log on as often as I want to (and hence update my blogs) is because a little person has been elbowing me out for position in front of my laptop.
