Friday Graphic Comments
Oh well, it was a nice memory alright. I just hope when we see each other, all will still be the same. And I hope he hasn't changed.
I remember in 2006, there was a warning about buying Chinese cosmetics as to it brings certain illnesses through the skin. Like cancer. I told My Mom about that, but still she didn't listen and continued patronizing Chinese products.
Then just about last year when baby cribs made in china was being recalled in major stores in the US because of being unsafe for infants an toddlers alike... Full story here.
The Chinese trade has grown global. It has been like this for many years. Big companies tend to outsource their workers from China. So as a result, almost all of the popular brands we are wearing are not US made anymore. It is made in China. But the raw materials are of course from the US.
They make almost everything now. Trying to imitate US made products. And surprisingly, they also look the same. Like the mobile phones. But when you actually try it, you will know it is not the original product.
Now, the Chinese are on the spotlight again. Apparently, their milk powder has melamine on it.The tainted milk powder has killed several babies in China and injured more than 6,000 others, many with kidney stones or kidney failure. This is a shameful betrayal of families who relied on their government and corporate leaders to protect them. (from the Herald Tribune)
So, what is Melamine? I have read that it is a chemical used to make plastics, fertilizers and kitchenwares. What is it doing on milk products that children mostly use? The manufacturers are trying to cut down their production costs by putting water in fresh milk, then adding melamine to artificially inflate the reading for protein levels. And they know that milk is not tested for melamine, not until now.
With all these problems being brought up by using made in China products, how should people react? I think not all of the products from China are harmful. Just like the cough medicine I use today. It is made from China but it is much better than the medicines I buy from the pharmacy. I guess, we should all be careful in what we buy. Check the ingredients and watch for consumer reviews.
I understand that people patronize these products because it is really cheap. But in the long run, some may cause potential harm in our bodies... Choose wisely...

I know its late but I'll make a post about it anyway. September 15, at the Madison Square garden, our very own Charice Pempengco, sang a duet with Ms. Celine Dion. Wow, I am so proud of her. Got teary eyed when I read all the wonderful things Ms. Celine told about Charice. Thanks to the Oprah Winfrey Show, it was made possible... Charice is a 16 year old girl from the Philippines. Who started singing at the age 4. Her mother made her join singing contests in which she won most of them. She was discovered abroad though a video post made in youtube... She had performed with the likes of Andrea Bocelli and David Foster. had tv guestings at the Ellen Degeneres Show, Oprah, Paul O'Grady Show in England... She's a very remarkable kid and I am so proud of her... More power to you Charice, continue making your star shine...
More about the article about Ms. Celine and Charice's duet here.
Here are parts of the video from the performance:

Mom also makes me reformat or fix the computer, put songs to her mp3 player, do anything that she doesn't know how to do. Then Mom out of the blue just decided to have a massage service at home.
Mom and I are really addicted to massage and spa. Almost we have been to almost every spa and massage parlor in our city. But one thing, it is still special to have it right in your home, with a blind masseuse.
Randy is a blind masseuse. He is blind since birth. He is in his 20's. I have known him for almost 5 years already. We met at a local gym, where he was the resident masseuse. Then and until now, he has been my favorite. He combines all massage styles and hit it right to the veins. After the massage, you'll feel rejuvenated... Having a massage is one of my favorite things to do...
If ever you are here at Davao City, you might want to call him for a home service... His number is +639176464406, Just look for Randy...

Yes, the title itself is very catchy. It is about a group of girls who are all in a relationship or married. Different story plots, funny things that happen in real life. They are currently airing season 5. Personally have watched season 1 - 4, can't wait for the new season to air here at our country. For more information about the show click here.
Had a nice long weekend. Have rested well and now back to work... :) Actually, I have been sick. So no fun weekend for me. Just spent some quality time with my family...

Love is really a wonderful feeling, when both of you are still in to each other. Reality somehow steps in and ruin everything. I hate to be biased in my opinion. I have been in love for a lot of times already. Been happy, sad, excited, duped, broken, every other feeling about love has come my way... In the end, it all comes to being compatible and being friends with the person you love.

Just a thought, choose from the heart... Find your soul mate...
I have run you down into the ground
Spread disease about you over town
I used to adore you
I couldn't control you
There was nothing that I wouldn't do
To keep myself around and close to you
Do you have an opinion
A mind of your own
I thought you were special
I thought you should know
But I've run out of patience
I couldn't care less
Do you have an opinion
A mind of your own
I thought you were special
I thought you should know
I used to amuse you
But I knew that I'd lose you
Now you're here and begging for a chance
But there's no way in hell I'd take you back
Do you have an opinion
A mind of your own
I thought you were special
I thought you should know
But I've run out of patience
I've run out of comments
I'm tired of the violence
I couldn't care less
I'm looking for a new infection (x4)
But we were the talk of the town (x4)
I thought you were special (repeat until end),
The big question that everyone's asking, is Katherine Moennig gay?
If you watched the series, you'll say she's definitely gay. But no one is confirming it. She allegedly have a relationship with Francesca Gregorini, ex girlfriend of Portia de Rossi, Ellen Degeneres wife. We will just be left guessing... Until they spill the beans themselves. All I can say is, Katherine is a great actress... Aside from that, She's incredibly cute...
I am currently going through assessing my life's accomplishments. What have I done right and what I have done wrong? Have I helped people who are in need? Or just simply ignored them. I have turned 29 last June, and as I am approaching the age 30, I keep on asking myself, What is my purpose in this life?
I know I haven't done much. I made a lot of mistakes and learned from it along the way. I have renewed my relationship with the lord Jesus Christ. I try to pray and depend my life on him. I have a beautiful child that is a blessing to me. Makes me want to live my life more. I am not perfect, and I still make mistakes everyday. But I want to try and make my life more meaningful. Be helpful to others, not to be angry all the time, stop blaming others, remove all the hate in my heart and love the lord more than ever.
The show is really nice. Talks about all kinds of lesbian characters that actual lesbians can relate to. I studied in an all girls school way back in my high school years. So, that definitely explains my set of friends and my behavior.
What struck me most are the situations portrayed in the series, are almost alike in the situations my friends were in. From being a closet case, to having lots of girlfriends, cheating, living in, adopting a child and so much more.
The series now just ended in series no. 5. We will be waiting for the next series 6, that will come out sometime next year.
Will blog more about the L Words character next time... Ciao!!!
Been busy at work, haven't found time to post anything until now. My stepdad just arrived from the states. So we're probably going out on a vacation. Will keep you updated. Ciao!...
