			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love to travel — and what kind of person doesn&#8217;t?</p>
<p>I am hoping that this year, our family would be able to board on a plane again for a getaway just like what we did last year.  Looking at airline sites really make me wish we could book a flight again, but I have to seriously consider the costs.  Oh, well… the year is just starting, right?  So much could still happen so I guess it’s not wrong to get excited!  Wishes come for free so I think that taking my family to a vacation outside the country would be a good goal for me this year.  </p>
<p>In our culture, there are many things to spend on especially when you go outside the country—aside from the fare, hotel and food expenses, one has to think of buying some souvenirs to give to close friends back home.  I am sure they would be happy to have some <a href="http://www.famous-smoke.com/brand/cohiba+puro+dominicana+cigars">cohiba cigars dominican</a>. </p>
<p>Of course it would be great to bring home some chips or some famous delicacies from the place we have visited!  I guess that’s still a long way off, so meantime, it’s time to work hard to make this dream come true.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When was the last time I got pampered at a spa?  I would do anything just to get a beauty make over again… and just to lie there getting all beautified.  Sigh, I wish.  But really, if I have to think about it, I really don’t have to spend that much to get pampered.  I could actually make my own <a href="http://www.cleopatraschoice.com/salt-scrubs.html">salt scrubs</a>!  I could exfoliate my skin at home – minus the hundreds of bucks that I have to pay the spa.  </p>
<p>I guess I have to find time to make that scrub one of these days—mind you; I can get the same beauty treatment right here in my house, practically for free!  Whoever said a stay-at –home mom like me doesn’t have the right to a beauty treatment?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When my youngest daughter celebrated her birthday last month, we didn’t send out <a href="http://www.invitationbox.com/birthdayinvitations.html">birthday party invitations</a>. We were tight on our budget. Aside from that, we already made plans for our first family vacation together this November in Manila.</p>
<p>Anyway, we had a small family celebration and as you all know it, she got two birthday cakes on that day! Aside from that, she had a lot of pinks gifts given by her godmothers and online friends. She is indeed a happy child that day!!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Unemployment is rampant in our country they say. Yes, this is probably true if you check out the latest statistics on how many graduates are added each year plus the outstanding unemployed masses. But for me honestly, unemployment can be lessened if people just take whatever descent jobs are available. All of us must start somewhere.</p>
<p>Some graduates don’t apply for <a href="http://www.hospitalityjobsite.com/jobsearch/travel-hospitality/food-service/">Food Service Jobs</a> because they think it would lessen their social status in life. But what they don’t realize is that if they take such jobs and work hard on it, someday they might become restaurant managers or future entrepreneurs of their own. Sadly, they don’t see it that way.</p>
<p>Oh well, unemployment can be solved. It can be solved if people are cured inside. Don’t you think?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Father&#8217;s Day is this coming Sunday. Have you gotten a gift for that most important man in your life? If you haven&#8217;t yet, then you should read this because we will be discussing about some of the best brands of cigars. I think even if your father or husband doesn&#8217;t smoke, gifting them with a cigar would be symbolical of your gratitude to them. The cigars would be a symbol of respect and honor from you to them. One cigar type you can give is <a href="http://www.cigarplace.biz/">Acid cigars</a>. These cigars are hand made from Nicaragua and they are made using only the most natural of materials. What makes this type of cigar special is that it has a distinct flavor that is quite pleasing to the taste and may do wonders to uplift your spirit.</p>
<p>A second type of cigar is <a href="http://www.cigarplace.biz/">CAO cigars</a>. What are these? These little cigars are actually worlds different from the usual cigar or tobacco that leaves you with a stinky smell. These are flavored cigars with assorted flavors that are sure to uplift your mood and also that of the people around you because they wouldn&#8217;t have to hold their breaths anymore each time you puff and huff. Some of the flavors of CAO are caramel macchiato, cherry, vanilla, cocoa, honey, Irish cream and even white chocolate. Sounds good enough to taste, huh?</p>
<p>But since it is Father&#8217;s Day, dads and husbands only deserve the best. In that case, you might want to give them <a href="http://www.cigarplace.biz/">Padron cigars</a>. These cigars have unique tastes and they scream utmost quality. But the great thing about these is that they are not too expensive but are affordably priced. With a rich, medium-to-full bodied flavor, these cigars are sure to give the special men in your life an unforgettable Father&#8217;s Day.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If I would be given a chance to become a part of the corporate world again, I would probably want to be a trainer in a call center or at a company servicing clients internationally. Why? I just think that with my experience in sales I can teach people how to be more personable and also how to make a sales pitch.</p>
<p>I understand that most <a href="http://www.job.com/customer-service-jobs/">customer service jobs</a> nowadays require agents to not only assist customers or clients with their needs but they are also required to sell their products or services and I happen to be good at sales. I don’t think I would have worked as a sales manager if I didn’t know a thing about it.</p>
<p>I think it’s very important for those who desire to be good customer service representatives to present themselves in a positive light because as it is, a lot of people are generalizing their annoyance with incompetent agents. If I were to train these agents, I would start by teaching them how to be proactive while at the same time attuned to the needs of their clients.

There was even a time when kids got hooked on tops, yoyos, trump cards, marbles and street games like cops and robbers. Those were the games I played while I was growing up. Now, ask your child if he or she knows any of that stuff. Chances are your kid will give you a blank stare in response to you.</p>
<p>Indeed, times have changed and even games children play has evolved. It’s more than likely that your kids are now hooked on PSP, PS3, Wii or Xbox. Personally, I think these modern gaming consoles are only out there to make you several dollars poorer. One example is when you set out to <a href="http://www.thesource.ca/estore/category.aspx?language=en-CA&#038;catalog=Online&#038;category=new-ps3-games">buy ps3 games</a>. They almost cost as much as a new DVD of a top grossing movie! But when you have a kid, you’re ready to spend no matter how much as long as your kid stays happy.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Don’t you find yourself wondering  about an uncanny stuff sometimes? Well, I do. Like for instance yesterday. I was  browsing on my computer as usual when I had to go get something from the  kitchen. As I was holding the bottle, I got to thinking how it was perfectly  filled and sealed.</p>
<p>I don’t know if it’s just me or  you have, too, have noticed how some bottles like ketchup, juices, energy drinks  and water are filled just perfectly? It must have taken a very good and reliable  <a href="http://www.epakmachinery.com/">filling machine</a> to fill them up just  right and nicely, no more and no less, and it makes you think they must have  been filled manually in order to achieve that.</p>
<p>Then there’s that thing about  bottle caps. Isn’t it there are bottle caps that pop when you open them? Hearing  the popping sound gives you the assurance that the content of the bottle is  clean and has been sealed air tight. A very powerful <a href="http://www.epakmachinery.com/products/capping-machines">bottle capper</a> was no less used to accomplish that. I don’t think that’s something that can be  done manually because there has to be a certain amount of force applied in order  to get the right amount of tightness.</p>
<p>Oh well. Those are some of the  things I think about when my hands are idle and my mind is not thinking about  work.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We’re almost close to moving back to CDO to see first-hand how our renovated house looks like. However, I’m still thinking if maybe I should have the floors at the house changed. Why? I just realized that I have a toddler who might find delight in running about the house and I don’t want to risk her slipping or sliding down the floor. I’m thinking whether laminate flooring would be best. </p>
<p>At the same time, I’m also apprehensive because I’m running low on budget and I don’t want to spend more than necessary and risk emptying my bank account. But if I can find a store that sells <a href="http://www.bestlaminate.net/">discount laminate flooring</a>, then perhaps I can fit new floors on my budget. </p>
<p>With laminate flooring, I wouldn’t have to worry so much when my youngest starts running around the house because I know the chances of her slipping on the floor is highly unlikely.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems as though I have spent the whole week browsing websites that sold jewelries. A part of me wants to buy a new set of jewelry, but then another part of tells me I should ease off from spending too much for a while. There have been a lot of expenses the past months, especially since I had the house in CDO renovated and then I had to spend for my daughter’s birthday party.</p>
<p>However, I couldn’t help but be amazed by the <a href="http://www.shopdi.com/Curacao/lo/locuracao.cfm">Curacao jewelry</a> I saw in one of the websites I visited. They were all so stunning with a distinct Caribbean edge to them. I really wished I could add one, or maybe even several pieces, to my cart and escape with my purchase but I had to painfully admit to myself that I am not ready to make such an extravagant purchase as of this moment.</p>
<p>Oh well, I guess I can still restrain myself. I just have to convince myself that there are other more important stuff I need to buy especially for the house and the upcoming school enrollment of my kids.
