Christmas is over, another new year had passed...People who have work, had a long vacation. Approximately 2 weeks of it. Now everything is back to normal. Back to heavy traffic, busy people going to work and students dreading going back to school after a long vacation. Welcome 2009!!! I wonder what's in store for me this year. Last year was a roller coaster. Me and family have been through tough times... I hope this year would bring more hope and blessings for us. I am happy for my mom, finally, she's going to be with my step dad, and she's starting her life all over. Me? I am next... Can't wait to be with my husband, with all the trials that we have been through. I am just glad he is still there... Supporting me and loving me always... But for now, got to do a lot of things... Through all of this, God is there, supporting us all the way. I am so happy and I feel so blessed.
Almost all eyes are glued to their television yesterday, December 7 , as the "Dream Match" started. Some are skeptic that Manny Pacquiao would win because of the huge size advantage that Oscar De la Hoya poses, but Manny of course proved them wrong.Both Manny and Oscar have earned names for themselves. Both also have risen from humble beginnings to becoming rich and famous. Both are legendary boxers.
I am really happy of the result. Manny was in great shape and was throwing punches at a very incredible speed, that Oscar can't hardly cope up. At round 6-7 I really felt sorry for Oscar, that I wanted him to surrender. Because his face was badly swollen. Even if Oscar De la Hoya lost the game, he was man enough to admit that he lost to a really great player and he had nothing to say but praises for Manny Pacquiao.
To our Manny, I hope you continue giving our country pride. Congratulations to your win and I hope, you won't change... Be humble and don't get all the fame and fortune get in your head...

It is Friday again... End of another work week... I love Friday's because I know I will get to spend more time with my family. I love Friday's because I can watch television all day long. I love Friday's because I can play with my dog. Did I tell you why I love Friday's?
Of all the reasons I have mentioned above, I just simply love this day, because I have survived another week, in God's guidance... I am looking forward for another great week ahead...
Happy Friday everyone... Enjoy your weekend...

Hello everyone... I am currently in the process of upgrading the appearance of my blog. And while I am doing so, I have encountered an internal problem with blogger. Will be back after it is all fixed and cleared up. Thank you for understanding...
I have a terrible headache today... Didn't get much sleep because of the party we went to last night... I had a great time though...
Yes, it is Friday. I love Friday's , because it is the last work day of the week... Tomorrow we will be at Mom's and we're probably be going to the gym. I need to lose weight, have gained to much over the course of 2 months. Maybe will be getting back to that 3 day fad diet, which I shed of a few pounds and about 2 sizes smaller... The thing is when it is over, you'll go back to excessive eating, and you eventually gain back all the pounds you have lost, plus the extra... Getting back at the gym will probably be the best solution and of course, diet, diet and lots of water... Get rid of beer...Hehehe!

Friday Graphic Comments
Everyone here at our house is panicked over the milk they have purchased during the last few months. I told them, well nothing happened to you guys, and no one from our family have been poisoned. My Mom is really an avid fan of these made in China products. Ranging from their cosmetics, clothes, toys, furniture and food, because it is a lot more cheaper than the average brand.
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...
