Day Before Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! This will be my first Thanksgiving Celebration in Mississippi. I remember last year, my husband and I were still living in Orlando and we celebrated it with Doris, our friend. Earlier that day, I was with my little friend Emilia because her parents had to work double time. There were so many appointments in their spa so, I took care of Emilia. Oh my! She is so pretty and smart and I missed her dearly. Last year, after lunch, I took a nap because I had a bad migraine. So far, I feel good today. Tomorrow is a good holiday celebration for me with my family here. I woke up early and did a general cleaning. I will be out later today and do the yard. The leaves are piling up, LOL. Cooking? Not my forte! My husband is in charge.

Happy Thanksgiving to All!

C'elle

Have you heard about C'elle? I bet you heard about it and all about stem cells. This company is responsible in preserving the stem cells found in women's menstrual blood. The menstrual blood carries stem cells which are the building blocks of life that have been used to treat diseases. Check out the Website and learn about how this company can help you and your family. You can check their FAQs page to understand about C'elle and their wonderful services. This company was developed by researchers at Cryo-Cell International. Since 1992, they have helped nearly 185,000 families to preserve their babies’ umbilical cord blood. It is one of their services aside from stem cells in menstrual blood. Stem cells from umbilical cord blood are known to treat more than 75 diseases including leukemia, anemia and lymphoma. This company will collect and preserve stem cells from their menstrual flow. The stem cells found in menstrual blood can be useful in future therapies to treat diseases such as heart disease, stroke and diabetes. In the future, stem cells in menstrual blood can be used in anti-aging and sports medicine. If you are planning to transact business in C'elle, you will have the option to do the process at home and it is painless.

Flooding in CDO

I woke up with the noise of my cellphone beeping. It was a text from my mother in the Philippines. She always inform me through text whenever she was online. Well, she went panicked today because there was a downpour of rain in Cagayan de Oro City causing flood in the area of Carmen where my brother lives. Anyway, I told her to calm down and just get the whole family and have them sleep over in my place. There was a storm and it hit Misamis Oriental this week. There were flooded areas and some landslides. I just hope that this calamity is not that huge. All my family and relatives are safe though. Since I live uptown, my mother is safe in our place.

Back Slapper

Have you ever met someone who says something nice to you and when you are not around, she started telling EVERYBODY the opposite about you? What would you do if you encounter one? Well, it is really annoying that such person exist in your group right? I heard everyone say that she is a back slapper and I bet she is; which I tried to twist my mind that she is not. If the situation is not healthy and you have a clear concept that it will not do you any good for your betterment as a person, STAY AWAY right? What if, she still think that you don't know and treat you the same way as nothing happens? What would you do? Pretend is the answer. What if she still wanted to fit in? My answer is------> QUIT! They are not worth to be associated with you. I guess, I will consider all of these, don't you think?

Note: I am using "SLAPPER" and not the traditional word "STABBER" because, this person I am referring to, didn't do harm on me.

Friendship

I always treasure friendship and I have friends in groups too. When I was in the Philippines, I have friends who loves shopping, watching movies, partying and hanging out at the mall enjoying the good food. Sigrid ( pink blouse and too tired to stand, LOL) and Rusty ( wearing boots,LOL), are just two friends that I get along with. They are funny, lots of stories to tell, interested in fashion and they are the kind of friends that I can be with for a day and not get bored. Of course, Rusty is gay and a very descent one. He is so reserve and never shares nasty things with us around. He giggles whenever he saw handsome guys. Funny! I miss those moments. This picture was taken four years ago.

Okay, to make it known to everyone, I am not comfortable wearing skirts and I love sleeveless, LOL. That is why, in this picture, I wore jeans already. After the party, I always make it a point to change something I am comfortable with. Anyway, I sit beside the three lovely Rusty's and the two pretty sisters posed behind us.

They are local make up artist and very talented in their own way. How I wish they are here to take care of my long hair. These people are the kind of friends that will make you laugh and accept you for who ever you are and I did too.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday Deals

If you love shopping these days, you could at least wait a few days to get the best deals for the year. I am referring to you about Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals which are being mentioned in Dirt Devil Holiday Gift Guide.

According to Dirt Devil, hot deals happen on November 27 and November 30 which is Black Friday and Cyber Monday respectively. During Black Friday, all retailers offer amazing deals of their products but it is very limited. Therefore, not all of us can get the hot deals. If you visit the store early then, you might have the good chances of getting the deal. But if not, do not dismay because there is still the deals on Cyber Monday. You can shop online and grab the hot deals offered by the online retailers.

Class is Finally Over

David got the over all scenario with me being an angry amy LOL! But, I am not angry really but amused of the situation of my workplace. While I am away in blogging world (three months), David has kept me informed. Thanks to David, oh well, you know him right? If not, visit his blog.

Well, my class is finally over yesterday. Got LXXX1X grade, not bad for me considering I have to work at night. And my teacher is the person that I argued during my enrollment processing. Yap! Imagine me seeing her on the first day of class. She knew that I know that she is indifferent and trying to show kindness. Trouble! Me and my Mexican friend Lily realized that the teacher is indifferent whenever we call her for assistance. But, when others asked for clarification, on the spot---> she will help them with clear explanation. She even sits down on their PC and finish their computer tasks. We halted our work for those times. Both of us are patience though. I know, if it were YOU, you will fight for your rights.

Lily was sad during the Midterm exam. Me too LOL. When we take the midterm exam, we only have it for less than 20 minutes without telling us that she plan it that way. She got the lowest result and I do not blame her. She is so smart considering she talk Spanish and English is not even her second language. I challenged her to focus and make the finals perfect. I was so glad with her grade yesterday. She got a perfect score during the finals. I got one mistake and Lily got a XC grade. I am so happy with her. I am using Roman Numerals hehehe. Our grades are written in numeric of course.

Well, glad that my class is done and I met two wonderful classmates Lily and Marie. Did you know that I slept from 9 AM to 6PM straight---> so peaceful. See you in your blogs.

Thankful Wednesday

I missed the Blog World really but, I can only do one thing at a time. I have so much to blog about such as my experiences at workplace, my studies, my day to day activities which were FUN, my new acquaintances and yep, too many indeed.

• My Beyond Photography blog got PR3- I really do not understand the Google Rankings. It seems to me that, the more you strive harder to get your PR back, the more it is further from your grasp. The last time I blog in my camera trip was Oct.22 and I have only 15 average daily visitors. Yet, I got PR3. Well, thank you Google! I appreciate it so much. Hoping that my other two blogs will have PR soon also.
• My class will end this month and am so excited really. I was just so exhausted with classes and work and desperate to blog also. I lack the normal time that I needed.
• My work is FINE! It is not the job that you guys would prefer. You would scolded me for sure. Kelly's Services called me two weeks after I got the permanent job. Though it is a teaching job, it is only a part time. Having my present job is Okay for now. I promise that I won't hold this job for so long, or else; I will be scolded by my friends in blog land, LOL.
• My workplace is good. The employees are Nice and I met six Filipino workers which I am excited about. I like Nitz in the Wardrobe Department. She is so nice and a typical Filipina who is so down to earth. She is the kind of person that you will keep as a friend really!
  
• About my Izea and PPP opportunities, I still have them. There are times I missed to write them even if I was able to reserved the opportunities. I am trying though.
• Every morning, after work, my husband and I ate at the breakfast buffet in these casinos: Palace Hotel, Hard Rock, the Isle and Beau Rivage. I will be posting the pictures soon when I am back to my normal blogging.

Today, is the birthday of our cousin here so, we will have lunch at Satisfaction Buffet. See yah in your blog.
