Comments on my posts

I just celebrated my 43rd birthday with a blast in the Paradise Island of Boracay .As a token of thanksgiving I launched an Amazing Birthday contest in the blogosphere. I can not help but laugh at some comments posted by some bloggers on my site. Why? Some of them can not believe that I am already 43 yrs old. Some asked for beauty secret tips …like what’s the best wrinkle creams to use for her sensitive skin. Well. I just referred her to wrinkletreatment.org - the #1 wrinkle treatment guide on the web.

Shoot Me : Braided Hair



Got my hair braided in Boracay... It's the hair style in the Island.

Winning the battle!

I love dogs and cats but I hate fleas and ticks as much as I hate cockroaches. This is the reason why I hate when Bubbles ( our dog) is inside our house. We have done everything to get the fleas out of her thick and furry hair but it keep on coming back. We bath her regularly with anti-flea shampoo but I guess it’s not working.

I am glad I found a site which suggested methods of getting rid of this pesky annoying little creature. Fleascontol.com have methods of flea control review them all - from environmentally safe ways for those who are worried about using chemicals, to product reviews of things like advantage flea control. If you want to have info on flea spray for carpets …. then the site is for you. I have just visited their site and I found lots of information like safety guide to flee medications, identifying counterfeit flea medicines, diseases from fleas and general ways to kill fleas.

How to win the war with fleas and ticks? Visit their site and win the battle.

Word-filled & Word-ful Wednesday






When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? Psalm 8: 3-4

Shops! Shops! Shops!




Above are some of our pictures with my hubby as we enjoy the sights, sounds and shops around D’Mall and Talipapa in Boracay. I never thought Boracay has a long strip of boutiques selling various swimwear, souvenir items and RTW’s. Name it, they have it! Even those plus size lingerie are available. I found also my favorite coffee shop and Pizza Restaurant located at the heart of D’Mall. Whew! I cannot wait to be back in Boracay. Wannah come with us?

Wanted : Social Media Agency

Who doesn’t need a social media ? I guess every blogger needs it.When I was still on the first week in the blogosphere, terms lang social media, page rank, traffic , exchange links were taboo to me. I came to know about blogging from a passing discussion among my blogger cousins during the wake of my mom. I was busy attending to the needs of the visitors. My mind was not focused on the subject thus I was not able to know the meanings of blog terminologies I have mentioned. All I learned was how to create a blog through blogger.com.

Now, I realized how important it is. Social Media Agency is one avenue to reach the media and a core target audience Take one look around these days and whether in the coffee shop, online or in line at the grocery store, almost everyone is buzzing about social media and blogs, about how individuals, brands, products and companies can and should be promoting themselves through social media.

Just recently I added all my blog sites to the number one social media in the web today . I should my blog sites gained additional exposure through it. How about you? What social media are you member of?

Watery & Wordless Wednesday


Helmet Diving and Reef Walking at Boracay Island, Philippines.

EAT ALL YOU CAN!




That’s what we’ve done during our Boracay Vacation. We just can’t resist the sumptuous foods displayed along the food strips of Station 1 to Station 3 … from lobster, crabs, blue marlin , milk fish to prawns. .. name any sea food you know they have it! If you want to get the most of the Island… go food tripping. That’s what we did and the result? The heavier John and Grace...Lol!

Now I am searching online how to lose weigh effortless. I have just read apidexin reviews today . I have learned that it is one of the better diet pills available in the market . It’s currently the #2 consumer rated diet pill with a 93% success rate. Visit dietpillsreviews.net to find out why.

Our Hotel Accomodation

What’s great about our our Boracay Island escapade is our hotel’s accommodation. It’s a beach front hotel complete with first class facilities like swimming pool, spa , fitness room and fine dining restaurant. Our semi-deluxe room is big enough to accommodate 4 persons ( how I wish we brought the kids with us) .

I love our bathroom and it’s state of the art fixtures like Grohe faucet, hot and cold shower . Thank God for the room’s veranda, wifi signal was so strong that I was able to update my blog sites. I will make a special post on our hotel accommodation tomorrow.

Real Estate Visibility Online


Working in a Real Estate company assigned in the Engineering and Construction Department is an enjoyable and very rewarding job for me . For 8 years, I was connected with the no. 1 Real Estate developer in our region. Building houses , roads and amenities excites our department , knowing that we do not build low cost structures but modern and high-end buildings using the latest equipments , design and technologies.

Internet technology 8 years ago is not as advanced as today, our marketing strategy that time depends on visual product presentations on malls , TV and print ads. It was only in 2002 ( timely for my resignation ) that we were able to create a website but it was limited only to our company profile .

Talking about real estate’s visibility in the web reminds me of 2estates.com. They offer real estate website software that allows you to display and manage real estate listings, allows clients to search for suitable offers , leave inquiries or create listings online. Their real estate web hosting is user friendly and easy to navigate . Visit their site and take a tour of their real estate web design. You will be redirected to their search page, details pages and listing. Creating an account is free and it takes only 30 seconds . Visit their site and take a demo tour now!

Peace and Security

During our 4-day stay in Boracay, we observed that there were lots of security guards both in uniform and plain clothes scattered though out the beaches , hotels and carious establishments . Maybe , this is one reason foreigners flocked to the Island for their summer vacations. Like Security Guards Wigan, the Boracay Security Guards acts as agent in maintaining peace and order in the area.

A glimpse of Boracay by Night



There are endless fun activities when the night falls on this Paradise Island. When we there for my birthday celebration last July 20-23, I was struck with its beauty not only on daylight but also at night. There are concerts from first class hotels, Sand castle competition and Fire Dance Exhibition along the long strips of Bora's shoreline. At the inner areas are Rock Wall climbing, basketball shooting and other indoor games.

We ended the night walking hand-in-hand feeling the cool breeze of the beach and under the bright full moon. We brought with us our maglite led flashlights... but it was not used since the shore are illuminated from the various hotels and restaurant nearby.

Boracay at night is so romantic... We will definitely be back there!

Adopt the Culture!


When you are in Boracay… go with the flow of the Island Culture like having your hair braided or extended, henna tattoo on any part of your body and of course wearing sexy swimsuits. Ouccchhh the later hurts. As much as I wanted to be a little bit conservative… I was forced to wear my swim suit for our snorkelling,helmet diving and other water adventures. If only I was aware of this, I could have taken weight loss pills months before we went there. Thanks to my hubby’s encouragement, I was able to walk down the shoreline with confidence.

Lose Fat not Water!

I have read a diet pills reviewed by the experts online and learned that most diet pills do nothing except help you lose water weight. Why ?Because these manufacturers use cheap ingredients not proven enough to help loss weight. What is important according to a friend who is an Aerobic instructor is that to get a diet pill that will help you lose fat in the stubborn areas around your hips, thighs and stomach.

If you are really in dire need in losing weight… visit dietpillsreviewed.org and see the best diet pills for 2010.

Brash! Brash! Brash!

Have you encountered the word Brash? What does it mean?

You can choose what Brash means, but to us it means nothing as its a feeling that encompases ones inner being. Wow that was deep! We interviewed some of our guys and asked them “What Does “Brash” Mean To You:”

James Fairbrother: To conquer ones fears

Natasha Wrall: To say what I mean and don’t be afraid of the consequences.

Matt Newing: The king is dead long live the king.

Adam Turton: It costs more money to win new business than it does to keep existing business, this is why we’ve never lost a client.

John Daly: Everyone wants to work for Brash, its because we’re such a sexy brand.

Hannah Crellin: If Brash is to be bold then I am Brash incarnate.

Food Trip Friday # 1




The Triple Extra Large Sea foods in Boracay!

What is an IVR?

Ahhh... it is such a waste of time calling customer service of my internet connection provider. Thos morning I have been put on-hold for about 20 minutes and when it’s time to talk to the telephone operator I was again put on-hold and referred to a customer service agent! After 10 minutes I just cut the call knowing that my concern will lead nowhere.

How I wish our telecommunication system is as high-tech as that of the western countries where they have this IVR ( Interactive Voice Response). With this system you will swiftly and effortlessly put through to the right person to deal with your call. And what’s more? You don’t have to spend more time than you need on the phone to a bored and disinterested operator. Visit elitetele.com for more information about IVR.

Feasting in Boracay

Help! From the 4-day vacation in Boracay, I need a quick weight loss. I just can’t resists the feasting atmosphere in the Paradise Island of South East Asia. Every where you go there are lots of foods to choose . From the small food stall selling tempura and fish balls to the cozy and pricy Italian Fine Dining restaurant. Oh my! Boracay is the home of lobsters, prawns, crabs and blue marlin... for your $5 you can eat all you can from the many restaurants along the sea side. If you are sea food lover... it’s time to conquer Boracay.

Now back to my quest for losing weight, any idea?

Heard of Siemens Phone?

Have you heard about Siemens phone way back in the 90's? It was the popular cellphone brand before.. In fact it was the first phone I bought from my first job in 1992. I have heard that Siemens Phone Systems is now back in the communication Industry. I hope it will be available in our city as soon as possible. Watch out for it!

Thanks to Call Recording System

The Call Recording feature of my hubby's cellphone was a great help while we were having a vacation in Boracay. We are here at Mactan International Airport and got 20+ plus recorded calls from my kids and friends. Now , he is busy returning call for them. Thank God we were able to buy a unit with that feature.

Sky WAtch Friday and Looking in the Sky Friday



I conquered my fears! The Parachute Sailing is a once in a lifetime
experienced for me... iagine 400 ft above sea level! Whew!



Do I look like Bob Marley?

As I have posted yesterday, Boracay Island exceeds my expectation. I never thought that there are lots of fun activities inside this little Island within the Island of Panay, Aklan. I thought all they could offer are their crystal white beaches... I never know there are lots of water adventures like Banana Boat, Fly Fish, Helmet /Scuba Diving, Snorkeling , Bottom Glass speed boat , Jet ski and Para-sailing. They have also high land activities like Buggy Car, ATV, Zip-line, Zorb and Horseback riding. We have been here 3 days already but we haven’t tried yet all that Boracay can offer.

Last night my hubby forced me to have my hair braided as braiding services lined-up the strips of the beach walkway. For P100, you can have your hair looked like that of Bob Marley in 5 minutes! Lol! Oh yes.. Heena Tatoo is a must in the Island but I refused to have one since I’ll be attending a friends wedding so soon and that it could be seen from my silky white dress. The Hair braiding beautician and the the tattoo artist are so expert with their craft that people are satisfied with their services... as if they are graduate of Phoenix cosmetology schools who are an authority regarding beauty. What do you think of my braided hair?




Hair braid is a must in Boracay island... I went with the flow..Lol!

All about Luxury Cars

Men are always fascinated with cars! It is a fact that we , the women should always understand. I have known some celebrities and wealthy businessman whose vehicles garage is more spacious that their homes. Some of them collect cars as easy as collecting shoes or watches. Manny Pacquiao for example has lot of luxury cars.. I read from a magazine that every fight he won, he always gifts himself with pricy cars like Audi, Lamborghini and other sports car. Luxury vehicles parades in his mansions in General Santos, Boracay, Laguna, Manila, Baguiao and in California. Willi Revillami also is a car affictionado... remember the controversy over his Ferrari?

Yes! Men are always captivated with cars... my hubby and my son are not exempted. They just love browsing online on the latest models of cars. They found an Audi Dealership site which details specifications of certain models. Of course, we couldn’t afford having one... so they are just contented by collectin vehicle magazines and posters. Some of them were posted on my son’s room. How about you? How are you addicted with cars?
