We always hear this from women (like me!)… it’s just hormones. But do you know that when one grows old and is through menopause or andropause, hormone is very important?
A woman undergoes weight gain, hot flashes and night sweating at one point in their lives. With hormone replacement therapy, this can now be remedied. Women can now say goodbye to these problems. If you think men are safe from a biological clock like that with women, you are wrong! They undergo andropause, menopause in men in other words. Hormone plays a very important role in making loves easier and more comfortable for everyone.
You know, the first time I heard about hormone replacement therapy, it made me pause and think hard about it. I know that women avail of this to help them as they age. But I didn’t know that even men seek this medical treatment. Hormones decline as a person grows old. With hormone replacement therapy, highly trained physicians, like that from BodyLogicMD help men and women replace hormones to stop suffering from hormonal imbalance, menopause and andropause. BodyLogicMD uses natural hormones. They are doing the treatment on an individual basis, knowing that each person has a different need. Check out BodyLogicMD.com and know more about hormone replacement therapy now.

I don’t open my Friendster account that much. I am not that into social networking, to tell you the truth. I don’t have Facebook account unlike most people I know. A friend of mine kept sending me invites to join Facebook but I just don’t have the right amount of inspiration to create an account. Seems to me a waste of time when I already have a Friendster account.
Anyway, these past few weeks, I always check what’s new in there. I like looking at new photos posted by my friends. I’ve seen a couple of old classmates and batchmates. One photo made me relieve all the silliness of my grade school life. The girl still looked the same, still looks mean even when smiling! Hahaha… Another old friend/HS classmate is hiding behind her daughter’s name. Why she does that is still a mystery to me and our other friend.
Anyway, I just realized that with the 115 friends that I have (a small number compared to those with over 300-500 friends that I’m sure they don’t know), I am not that interested with the lives of some people I’ve added. I am thinking of creating another account and adding up the people I am interested in or a polite way to delete them (is there a thing??). I am interested in half the number of friends in my account and not that much with the other half.
Hmm… Have you ever been in this situation with your Friendster or Facebook account?

The past week was quite eventful for me. Monday was a productive day for me. I was able to update some of my blogs and finish a new one. I realized that I should just get up and do whatever I feel like doing once I get the urge. That’s what happened that early Tuesday morning when I was able to finish a new blog.
Tuesday, I had lunch with Tita Liza and Cherry (she brought along her pretty daughter, MG) at Cafe Bola. It was a very enjoyable lunch. We had so many things to talk about, the non stop conversation spilling over cups of coffee afterwards.
Wednesday, I felt so OC with my desk so I cleaned every thing. I made back-ups and was able to finish some more pending tasks. Thursday, we had a scare. My aunt called me up to tell me that my uncle who was in Qatar working for a British power plant there had an accident. Good thing that after two hours, we got the good news that he survived the accident.
Friday, my sister and I went to our favorite spa to have foot spa and pedicure. I horded a couple of back issues of my favorite magazines at Filbar’s. Saturday was the day before the feast day of Sto. Nino. Every year, we go to the church in Tondo to attend the anticipated mass. Last Saturday, my dad, my sister, Hazel and I went there. Afterwards, we went to SM San Lazaro to have dinner at Savory. Yum, yum!
I am thankful for the busy week that I had. I am hoping that the week ahead will be another busy/productive week for me.
Have a great week everyone!

I was supposed to get a new pair of eyeglasses when I went to Quiapo a few days ago. My sisters and I get our glasses there at discounted prices. But since I was in a hurry to meet friends that time, I just told our opto that I will be back supposedly last week. My eyes have been hurting for a few days now, owing to the fact that I read for hours in a dark corner of my bedroom using my ebook reader. The glare of the gadget’s light is making my eyes sensitive to the rays of sunshine streaming through the windows. Bamboo Blinds is what I need. And I also really need to go back and get my new glasses.

Would you rather go bungee jumping off of a really high bridge or parachute over the Grand Canyon?
Hahaha what a question! I would rather go bungee jumping off a really high bridge. Have you seen the Grand Canyon?? There’s no way in hell I would parachute over that place ever! I would die of fright, that’s for sure!
Actually, I am not afraid of heights but I don’t like stepping on the edge of a precipice. It makes me think of plunging to my death. And it makes my knees shake hehe

I got back the life insurance quote that I asked my old insurance agent to give me. I don’t know if I can afford it right now. I have a lot of expenditure these coming months. Tuition fee is the number one on my list. My brother is already in college and the amount that I have to allot for his school fees is not a paltry amount. I will, of course, incorporate the life insurance amount in my budget for this year. It is something that I truly want to secure as soon as possible. You just never know what can happen tomorrow.

I know that she’s lurking. I can see her footprints. But I will not rant about it. I just want her to know that I KNOW.
I CAN SEE YOU!
But I will not take away her fun. I can see her peeking almost daily. That’s okay, actually. Thank you for the traffic. I just hope you realized by now that you’ve been mistaken.
That’s all

If there is one thing that I value, that’s comfort. I am a creature of comfort. Well, who isn’t? I love comfy chairs. I love the big, overstuffed ones. If I can only afford to buy home theater seating, you will surely find it at home. Movie marathons are normal at home on weekends, especially when all of us are present. A theater seating will surely be a big hit if only we can include it in the budget. I will probably save up for it first.

What film can you watch and watch over and over again and still laugh out loud at?
Right now, all I can think of is Rush Hour. All three movies of Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker never fails to crack me up when I get to watch it. For a series, I still say FRIENDS is the best! Whenever my sister and I want to have a good time, we put in FRIENDS and watch, laugh our hearts out.

I love listening to Launchcast when there is no radio station that I fancy at the moment. Good thing that I was listening to the Quiet Storm station three hours ago and it reminded me of the auto insurance quotes that I am expecting within the week. My uncle just bought a van for his family. He asked me to check out the quotes that will come in from two agents that he talked to last week.

I have this really, really weird attitude of being able to work only when I am using what I really want to use. For example, if I feel like using my laptop instead of my desktop, I better use the laptop otherwise I won’t get anything done. Weird ‘no? I am like that. One time, I wanted to write on a different notebook. I postponed whatever it was I was going to write there and went out to look for the notebook I had in mind. My sisters are always ribbing me about this quirk I have. But hey, to each his own, right? I am sure you also have your quirk. So what is it?

If there is one thing that I truly desire to do this year, it will be to travel far and wide. I wanted to go to Cebu this month to witness the Sinulog Festival personally but my sister beat me to it. She asked me to forego my plans. Either she will go and I will take care of the bills for this month or I will go and she will take care of the bills. Of course, I gave in. Sigh. Good thing a friend of mine was telling me about their family’s Portugal vacation and it made me think of something…
It will be costlier than when traveling locally. But I have always wanted to go to Portugal. I can stay in a cheap Portugal hotel to save on costs. I can probably ask my aunt who has a travel agency to get me a Portugal round trip ticket that I can afford. I can charge it to my credit card and pay it on installment. I am quite excited when I am thinking of getting on a plane to the Portugal of my dreams.
Hey, are you thinking of Portugal as well, you can go to www.olimar.com like what I did and know more about traveling to Portugal in that web site.
