More Socks for the New Year!

A few hours to go and we bid goodbye to 2008. Everyone is busy preparing for the new year, although the last day of the year 2008 is cold around here. It rained all day.
Socks seem to be the best companion in cold days like this. Personally, I love wearing socks. Although I often hear […]

Online Anime Power

I noticed that one of the more popular themes in parties for kids and teens nowadays is anime. Just two weeks ago, I saw a couple of kids wearing anime costumes on their way to their Christmas party. Apart from the fact that they look really cute with their costumes on, it is very enlightening […]

Night Creatures Reunite Online

I’m not necessarily a night person, because frankly I am afraid of the dark. In fact, most of my activities are done during the day, so that I’ll be at home by nighfall. Don’t get me wrong: Davao City is a very safe place to wander around even at night. Darkness just isn’t my thing.
Fortunately, […]

Breaking Barriers: Interracial Friendships

When we visited Singapore, we realized how diverse their community is. It was almost difficult to figure out who are the natives and who are the tourists. It was a beautiful blend of cultures, which worked really well to make Singapore the destination of choice.
Another place where it is easy to break cultural barriers is […]

Reach Out Through Online Chats

During my free time (which I seldom have these past few weeks), I spend my time chatting online.

Allow me to share this interesting piece of news from last week, involving American celebrity Paris Hilton’s new Mulholland Estates mansion (acquired only last year) and its apparent lack of an effective Home Security Support.
Late last week, a burglar ransacked the bedroom of Paris Hilton and got away with an estimated $2 million dollar worth […]

Made To Fit Your Every Need

When my husband and I plan our trips, we make our own itineraries. We usually do not book pre-arranged tours with travel agencies as we have heard a lot of horror stories about it. Everyone is in a hurry and you just have to keep with the pace of the group or to stick to […]

Security Systems: Check!

Last week, the world witnessed the series of tragic events in Mumbai, India. Also last week, a report confirmed that a 5-month old baby was raped in a hospital in Australia.
The Indian Police has come up with a more comprehensive plan to combat future threats and this include the installation of advanced Security Systems in […]

Finding The Shoe That Fits

My mother and I have never missed Pinoy Fear Factor since it started. We find it extremely exciting to watch other people do the stunts we know we can never do ourselves.
A few participants have complained about how their shoes failed to give them enough support during the stunts. Initially, we thought that they were […]
