A while ago after my conversation with my aunt, this is how I looked like
I called up my aunt who’s living in the states to give her the hotel name that we’re planning on booking for our vacation at the end of this year, you see my aunt will be joining my husband and I so I thought of letting her know which hotel we’ve chosen so that she can also give me her input, her ideas. I told her to check out the hotel’s website and even go to her travel agency so she’d know if they can book not only her accommodation but also her flight. I told her if I will do it from Europe, then she’d pay almost double of the price since the current currency exchange is bad.
But her reaction kind of surprised me. She got irritated. I was like whaaahaaat? (from the inside only, did not voiced out my reaction.) She didn’t tell me directly but let me feel that letting her know about the hotel isn’t important because she’s relying on my decision. Whoa! that’s just too heavy for me. I mean, it’s also her vacation and she needs to tell me how she finds things. She needs to enjoy her vacation, that’s my main concern. I also thought that when you want to go to another country for a vacation, you would want to check out where you’ll be staying, how and why you chose the place. I certainly would if the situation was reversed.
Anyway I’m not mad or anything….but I’m just a bit concern now…will we be having a nice vacation?…with my aunt in tow. 
OO…
siguro naman…
patay kang bata ka!!

The internet gives us every possibility to search stuff we need to purchase, and the ease of acquiring them. But it isn’t only buying that made easy but also selling. Selling stuff you want to get rid off, and where? Ebay. Ebay is an interesting and popular site to purchase items from and likewise a site to place items to sell. They sell stuff like cameras/videos, apparels, house appliances, vehicle parts, music instruments and a whole lot more. At present I am on the look out for filter for my camera, see image. Semi used filter like these simply are enticing because they aren’t expensive. I might bid for some.
But I also have stuff that I want to get rid of and I want to bring them to iSold it.com. Still in good condition of course. I am not getting rid of any of my photography stuff but my extra exercise machines. I have four machines which I used in the past to target particular muscles but since I bought a fifth machine which I really use a lot now and haven’t been touching the others. So instead of just parking them in the house, I hope I could turn them into cash, and I think it’s possible since the machines are well taken care of and usable. iSold It in Ebay might just be the solution because it’s the best place to drop off items that can be re-sell in their stores, any resell-able items. iSold stores are all over the United States as well as in Australia and Canada. I still have to wait until they open a store in our area, but if you’re like me who’s wanting to sell items, you might want to check out the site, learn about the process on how you can drop off items and how to sell them. But you need not worry about the sale because the iSold it store will do the selling for you, you just need to wait for your check in mail. Now isn’t that easy!

This is Suri Cruise, Tom & Katie’s daughter. Suri has turned two years old and still drinks out of a bottle. Apparently that’s bad. The Daily Mail reports:
Parenting experts and paediatricians recommend parents start to wean their child off the bottle at the age of one. The cute toddler is frequently photographed drinking from a bottle - despite turning two last month. Dr Charlotte Cowan, author of the Dr Hippo parenting books, told Us Weekly magazine: “Most paediatricians recommend a bottle should be given up by age one - almost certainly by 18 months.”
Since my expertise is limited in pug rearing, help me understand. What is so bad in giving your child, Suri’s age, a bottle? Is it hurting anyone? Will it affect the child’s future disposition in life? Like I said I am not a mom that’s why I am asking here. Are ‘experts’ always right?
What’s the harm in giving a child this age a bottle, when it’s evident that she likes it, she drinks it and not wasting it…and obviously (IMO) it calms her.
Aww this child is cute. ‘Can’t believe she’s Tom’s.

Every Saturday is my husband’s film day. Either he would rent DVDs or buy them. This Saturday though, we were not able to browse the DVDs at our favorite store because the temperature is quite high and the store was packed with shoppers! It was just too much to stay inside the building, felt like the furnace was on..oh the headache when we were inside, terrible!
So my husband’s a bit disappointed to come home without a DVD to watch, when I asked him to watch a movie Trailer with me on the internet. He asked which movie that was and I answered ‘Frontiers‘, a horror movie which he might fancy since he watches such movie (while I don’t. I really can’t stand blood!) But I did watched the movie trailer with him and I must say that I’m a bit intrigued, because it’s unrated. Does that mean it’s open for all ages? It really looked scary though, I would probably cover my eyes most of this film if I watch its entirety. That’s what I usually do when watching horror films anyways.
My husband on the other hand is interested to see the film but I doubt if I can stand the gore on the big screen and told him that I don’t want to see it on the screen , so we continued browsing the website and found out that there are available theater listings where it was premiered since May 9 (yesterday) but unfortunately, not in any areas near us so I think we’d wait for the DVD release on the 13th. Uncut and Unrated release, imagine that?
How about you, do you like horror films? You might enjoy this so don’t forget to check their listings or DVD release.
. Whatever it takes, just play
