Reading Reviews Online

Sunday, April 15th, 2012

One of the things I appreciate about technology is the ability to do intensive research at your fingertips. I was just looking for a review for a game I have been playing on my iPad. Then I also thought of looking up for xanogen reviews.

It’s always good to read reviews. You can get opinions from others. You don’t necessarily believe everything though because it boils down to personal preferences… and yet, like I said, it’s good to hear and know from others.

Salvation Army

Sunday, April 15th, 2012

One of the things I miss in the US when I was there for a short visit was our visits to second hand shops. I had a ball of the time rummaging through second hand items for a very cheap prize, you could almost have them for free!

Imagine getting Banana Republic tops for less than a dollar! Really, if you know how to dig, there are treasures you can find. You might even get some Columbia Clothing if you know how to dig through the items.

Anyways, I just miss going back to the US. I wonder when I can ever go back there.

Music and Travels

Thursday, April 12th, 2012

Listening to music while on a trip is one of the things that I love to do. What could be more relaxing than enjoying the peace and quiet, the view, being with family and enjoy great music at the same time? It does not matter if I rode on a plane, a bus or our own car. Music makes a huge difference, which is why buying a hands free headsets was one of the things I am so happy to have.

Speaking of travels, I have not been traveling with hubby for a while now, which I miss. If there would be one reason to quit my job, it would be because of these trips that I am so missing. I have missed so many trips already, but I enjoy his stories and photos of the places he has gone to without me.

Helmet for Kids

Sunday, April 1st, 2012

Schenker and Samantha both love cycling in the park. At times they cycle on the roads in our neighbourhood. They have lots of fun cycling with their friends, and I just love watching the kids having great fun.

After awhile I became worried about their safety and thought that I should get Arai Corsair V so at least they would have some head protection in case of mishaps while cycling.

I am glad we finally got them the helmets and I feel at peace when the kids go cycling now, and my kids enjoy wearing those helmets too.

It just worked out perfectly well for us and the kids.

Mother’s Day Gift

Sunday, April 1st, 2012

Globally, the world expresses their gratitude towards mothers on Mother’s Day. It is the time of the year we look back, reflect and thank our mothers for taking care of us and helping us grow in character and stature. We have so much to thank our mothers for the positive contributions and input they have had on our lives.

I’ve been thinking on what to get for Mum. There are lots of gifts for mom on mothers day …some people give cards, flowers, or chocolates, and/or make handmade items or special meals on Mother’s Day. Others take their mothers to the movies, a restaurant, cafe, or a day in a park. I’ve been wondering if I should get Mum jewelry, clothing, accessories, or gift vouchers for services or products. As usual restaurants may be busier than usual as some people take their mothers out for a treat but I think I’ll just skip dinner and I think meals on Mother’s Day are usually overpriced.

However, I might get flowers for mothers Mum.
