Just in the Nick of Time

06/22/2010

I hate being late.  I made it a point to be in the meeting place 15 minutes prior to the scheduled time.  That attitude of mine received recognition from my Boss who had recommended me to a higher position with another department.  I was so surprised when he called me one fine morning and informed me of the great news.  However, part of the process is to undergo an interview with the Head of the Department.  The meeting was scheduled at 3:00pm the following day of which I was also scheduled to out in the fields.  Well, I could get in time since I have my own RV.

The following morning was doing fine.  I was able to finish my field works in time.  I rushed to the office so I could still prepare myself for the interview.  Just then, my card did not start.  I checked on the battery and the gasoline, they were good.  As I was not into mechanical stuff I decided to call my secretary and look for a towing service.  They came to the site in a flash.  I was told that my car needed automatic transmission repair.  I told them to do whatever they can to fix my car.  My secretary told me they offer the best transmission repair Clearwater and I trust her.

As for me, I was able to make it at the meeting place, just in the nick of time.

Bring your House to Life

06/21/2010

I’m a simple person. Most of the wives wanted their house clean, spacious and elegant. I don’t know why I’m not like them - a meticulous woman who sees to it that every corner of her house should be clean and well arranged. It has been my mother’s concern. When I get to know Raleigh home remodeling company, I have an idea what to do and how to overcome this long time concern attitude. I started fighting against it through cleaning our house. I realized that my house is as messy and as dull as me. Believe it or not, this company awakened the creativity in me. How? I asked for a free consultation and told me that if I want it new and make it bigger, they can make it quick without ruining their customer’s daily routine.

 

Renovation and remodeling my house was done in just few weeks. From messy to dull, now it is as tidy and as attractive like me! Raleigh kitchen remodeling made me love our kitchen more than ever. Like what the kitchen renovation contractor promised me, they brought my kitchen to life and they did it without disrupting our routine. Wow! I have the best house, the best kitchen and now, my mother is proud of me not for being just simple but for being creative and for bringing my house into life!

Cheers to Class 1995

06/18/2010

I needed to earn money and fast. My grandmother was so sick and my family was turning to me for help. Sure I had work, but being a bagger in a grocery shop isn’t really going to pay my grandma’s hospital bill. So I had to think of a way. I thought of selling my car, my play station, my iPod, everything! But I was so unhappy for making that decision. I had to find a way to earn money without selling anything that I love. So, I went through my old stuff box to find anything that could be worth selling, and I found my class ring! I examined it, and I knew it had to be worth something.

I started to find online jewelers that could help me. I found this website where you could sell old silver dollar. They buy any kind of gold! I also discovered that they buy class rings too. So I knew I had to try mine out. So I contacted them online to get my gold kit. I shipped it right back after I got it. After a day, I was so shocked to see a check on my mailbox! My ring was worth a lot!

Because of this website where you could sell silver, I was able to pay my grandma’s hospital bill, AND even pay for her wheelchair. Thank God I was able to find this website!

New Jewelries from the Old

06/17/2010

I am an antique lover. I love the faded gold and the tarnished look of jewelries. That’s when my friends would tease because of it. They all wondered why a fashionable girl like me would wear something rusty. Although it’s within my style, I told them I only reuse old jewelries I bought from flea markets and other sales. I love less expensive clothing and accessories but they don’t understand why I am wearing the unfavorable ones when I could buy a handful of new and glittery jewelries with them. I asked how.

My friends told me to sell jewelry. There are a lot of internet buyers of gold that gives many good appraisals for the volume and quality of the gold.

 I took their suggestion and they led me to a store to sell old gold. I was surprises at how much these old jewelries are of worth. I didn’t know they were costly, that when I got my money, sure enough, I knew I could buy great first hand ones than the accessories I buy from vintage shops! My friends never teased me again and I feel more chic by wearing the jewelries I bought from selling old gold.

New Fashion Statement

06/08/2010

I got so tired of my whole wardrobe that I decided to go shopping one day. I went to different stores, but it seemed to be the same like before. I got tired of the same trends that I see in every store. So I decided to follow my friend and go online shopping. She said that it is the new in thing, so I tried it myself.

I was looking for something fresh, hip and new. And I found just what I was looking for! I saw funny t shirts website where they sold different shirts that holds about a thousand designs and various colors to choose from! From the moment I laid eyes on the site, I knew that it would be a good way to freshen up my look. It had so many funny designs to give that positive vibe in my style. T shirts are the new in thing today!

I also recommended this website to my friends and they also loved it! They also bought their own shirts and before we know it, almost all the students purchased their own shirt! It was fun seeing all the statement shirts swimming in the hallway. The shirts are a total fashion statement!

Do it yourself Shopping

05/25/2010

Super big discount office supplies symbols are being flaunted everywhere in the marked nowadays, does it really offers big discount? Our company is very particular in choosing good quality but economical office supplies.

In the office supplies store I know and patronize, we saved a bit of my money and time as well because delivery and shopping process are packed in one but the delivery charges are not included, of course.

We thought it was the most inexpensive store we know. I was ashamed when one of my officemates introduced “extraordinary” store (as she dubbed it).  When we checked out how extraordinary it is, we at first thought we will go to another place. She told us she will bring us to another “rare” way of purchasing. We had no idea of the exact location until she let us check her laptop. We were about to watch but we heard a doorbell; the delivery boy of the office supply store was there. Next thing we know, the purchased material was already in the office. We were really impressed. The source or the things they posted in their page is really true. See it for yourself, check it out and buy your supply needs from them!

Importance of Insurance

Humans are frail and weak, in a biological sense. We could easily get hurt. Our bodies will deteriorate and then, die eventually. It would have be ok if death comes naturally like in the form of old age - when you’re 105 and God has graciously given you the life you want before he takes you away from your loved ones. But what if that does not happen? What if walking 5 minutes from your home, you step on a banana peel, get unsteady, fall down and hit your head on the cement gutter? What if that happens? What will become of you? Worse, what will become of your kids?

You need insurance. I need insurance. I have thought about this and accidents are unpredictable. You’ll never know when it will come and how it will come. It is very important to be ready always so for whatever happens, your kids and your family are cared for. I purchased a term life insurance for me and for my husband. Term means that for 12 months beginning the date of my insurance contract, we are insured.

A particular company offers term life insurance no medical at all which is a great offer by the way since you don’t have to take tests just so to qualify.

It is cheap and very affordable but can be very valuable when the need arise. Like me, get one and you’ll never be sorry.

Hot Car of 1956

05/19/2010

My cousin is a sports car enthusiast whose life revolves around in buying and upgrading cars—showing them off during car exhibits in hotel lobbies.  His latest baby— a fast, sophisticated 1956 two-seat convertible car complete with a GPS and a back up camera.  The transformation was drastic considering its humble beginnings. Two months ago the car was almost sold to a shop known as “The Destroyer”.  But instead went into the hands of my cousin and brought it to antique car restoration Tampa FL for a new a look.

Restoring an old car as I found out later—must take the special skills of highly trained and knowledgeable professional auto restorers.  His other cars were also brought in at paint shop in Tampa once every two years for a flashier look.  This is the only company he trusted and been together for ten years.  All his sports car were all covered by insurance but as a result of the company’s low overhead—the automobile is easily fixed for less and even guaranteed an auto body work. 

Being relatively known in the sports car world— people would come and see his latest innovation.  There would be yelling and clapping and my cousin is more than proud to create new stuff that puts a smile on people’s faces.
