Kaye's Addiction

WHAMaholic is owned by Karina "Kaye" Mendez, such a lucky site being owned by a blog designer. A few weeks before now, I already made a review of this site (an entry for their recently concluded contest) on my other blog, but still want to mention that I really love those little hearts and flowers. I already contacted her and I love to let her do an overhaul on my blogs one of these days.

Whamaholic loads fast, which is very important plus clarity and neatness that highlighted socialization, advertisement, money-making opportunities and showcase her talent.
 So for those newbie blogger who want their site beautifully customize head your way to http://wahmaholic.com/

This review is for Bambie's Anniversart Contest.

Peachy's Wonderful World

Wonderful World of Peachy is a two month old blog authored by Ria named after her cute daughter Melandria. The site talks about everything about babies.

It was wonderful that the site loads fast and a credit should be given to the site designer the header and footer are really cute.

I had been bumping to Melandria since 2009 in SP forum, and she had shared a lot of tips and things about parenting and more about her lovely princess. For those first time moms or pregnant mommies, I recommend her site for some reading. This is all I have now got to head to Wonderful World of Peachy for Potty Training advice.

This review is my fourth entry to Bambie's Anniversary Contest.

Few Minutes to Earth Hour

In a few minutes (Manila time) I am bout to turn off everything in our home that uses electricity, my laptop now is running through its battery. So it's bye for now.

The imposing performance graduates with my highlight.

60 Minutes Gift To Earth

Earth Hour was first held on 2007 by World Wildlife Fund (WWF) in Sydney Australia where 2.2 million of homes and establishment switch off their essential lights and appliances for one whole hour support against climate change. And this had been a traditional campaign that held annually every last Saturday of March, 8:30 to 9:30 pm local time. Earth Hour 2010 have 121 participating countries around the world making it the biggest Earth Hour to date.

Let us all do our personal responsibility to Mother Earth's  future and our future with just 60 seconds of lights out, make your stand and make it a date on Saturday.

Seism

Image from www.longbeach.gov

Seism, Temblor or Earthquake define as shaking on earth surface due to underground movement along geological faults, volcanic activities, landslides or by human activities like bomb blasting. Magnitude is the measure of energy of an earthquake using seismometer and intensity is the measure of shaking in earths surface and determine using  mercalli scale.

Yesterday 25 March 2010 at around 1:29 pm Metro Manila including nearby provinces Laguna, Tagaytay, Pampanga, Bataan and Mindoro was shaken by a magnitude 7 movement that gives intensity 3-5 on said areas. It was for a fact that more than 20 quake occurs everyday but only few are reach our consciousness and its occurrence is unpredictable. It was a chest popping thing to re-experience this specially after Haiti quake having just the same magnitude  good thing our structures are designed to withstand magnitude 7.5 to 8, but DPWH warn the public on flyovers and bridges since these structures are more vulnerable to seismic movements (06-21-2009).


Earthquake is a natural thing specially in our country, having a fault line throughout the archipelago with history of sudden big shakes, it is impossible to know when will it move, all can we do is to prepare for the worst and off course nothing beat the power of prayers.

This lady got a lot of adventure living her life from Manila to Holland to Singapore and to their farm back to her origin Philippines. I enjoy reading her posts about their Bahay Kubo and I must congratulate her architectural skill, she had done a great job building a beautiful and cozy nipa house. She could also pass as quantity surveyor giving us idea on how much it cost building a Nipa Hut.

This blog is one of the many blog I visit the most not only because she brag about being a Pinoy and proud about it plus I find her life in Singapore worth reading specially now that we are planning to migrate in the country.

On the technical side, site loads fast and well maintained with all the necessary widget for easy and quick browsing.

This review is for Bambie's Anniversary Celebration.

Online Earnings

I was first drawn to internet money-making opportunities through PTC's, but after weeks of clicking I find it boring plus it was pretty slow you need to click every day plus join their forums and add at the end you find it was scammed site sh!@#! though I still retain two site where already received payments.
And now I am trying to find my way here in blogging, yes I primarily blog to earn some extras. Big part of my Paypal monies came from my online buy & sell activities and part from my other winning through blogging and really small part from PTC.

Neobux - $2.00 (1st payment)

Paypal "Donation button" - $8.00 (from my generous readers)

I am still waiting for my paid reviews payments to aged for payment and some other online sidelines to reach payment status and I hope to win some cash from our our blogger friend contest/giveaways so I can have another Paypal widrawal Yipee!!!

I love reading and following her articles and especially those funny pictures and videos she shares.

Nivea Baby Head-To-Toe Wash Review

Levi has a very sensitive skin, my mom would constantly remarks to my son "hindi ka naman tisoy pero ang dami mong allergy" (you're not white skinned, but still you got lots of allergy). He had been using a special specially formulated skin wash few weeks after his birth due to too much bumps appears on his body. It was a hypoallergenic, non fragrant, non bubble wash and really got along with my baby's skin. But since he is starting to be active as much as rolling and crawling, he needs something to keep him smelling fresh. Talcum powder as well as colognes are no no no to him and his wash would no longer keep him smelling fresh all day.

I find it difficult to find a suitable body wash for him I have tried five different well- known wash, but still experience itchiness. A friend suggested Nivea baby wash, I was hesitant to try it because I haven't read any review or product feedback about it on any parenting forum I browse on through plus it was only available in big bottle and might just add up to our stocks of baby wash afterwards. But then I still bought one and tried it on him the next day.
From then we had bought around 10 bottles of Nivea baby wash, it was so gentle that it manages to replace my sons first specially formulated skin wash and its mild scent makes him more kissable the whole day plus he got to enjoy a bubble bath which he anticipates so much.

Another One Has Arrived - Thank You Levy

My dear Levy of Living Life to the Fullest had finally decided to give my price through paypal.

It was the prize I won from her Wedding Anniversary Contest early last December 2009. Thank you very much dear!!!

Actually the prize is a 500 SM GC, but for some reason our friendly mailman from our very own National Post Office haven't delivered it yet since Dec. 23, 2009. Imagine more than 2 months to deliver a piece of mail from Sta. Mesa to Makati, which according to google map only have 4.8KM distance, ugh.... damn old system PhilPost have. Or maybe friendly mailman is not too friendly at all tsk! tks! tks!

Finally my Napkinssss arrives!!!

Finally after more than a month of waiting, my prize had arrived, I never thought they will all be delivered in altogether, I expect to have them to be delivered separately since I won it from five different bloggers. I got five packages, one of it is not in the picture since my sister made "arbor" one of it. You must say piankyaw ko na lahat, I just got lucky for being contest addict.

When dining out I will never compromise the place safety, cleanliness and food quality. Safe in that our body is still all intact after leaving the place. Clean, the place don't need to be too fancy its ok that it has a well sanitize CR. Food quality is a must, how we are going to enjoy our dining out if we wont have delicious servings.

My 2010 Vacation Plan

My Entry to Eartlingorgeous Contest Treats!

 

And for this year summer I love to be somewhere I can really relax my mind and pamper my body, soak on sun and sea water. The thought of these brings me a Bali or Malaysian destination and so, I tried searching for a perfect place, a resort 2 to 3 hours away from manila. Not in Batangas again, no not it Puerto Gallera, Boracay is out of the list, maybe in subic or Bataan.

Next plan, shopping for perfect summer gears that will suite out perfect 2010 summer getaway, I'm excited!
And I hope Ms. Earth let me have that Neutrogena Wave Power Cleanser,  To prepare my skin to that sun soaking session I planned this summer.
