Just Arrived... Not so good news, yesterday!

I just arrived errr.. it's 7 hours ago and it's a late post! I took a nap after, for about 4 hours. Oh, is that a nap or sleep? My feet is aching and tired from walking around the two malls! That's North Edsa and SM Fairview! At North Edsa, I went there to exchange the Yoshinoya's P500 worth of gift certificates (I won in Jayson Biadog's contest) and Skin Food voucher from Chic and Sassy Homemaker. I did not have a chance to take a photo of the food because we devoured it, immediately. Also, I forgot to take a photo of Skin Food with the Golden Kiwi gift set. Well, you can call me, Ms. Forgetful! Will blog about it, tonight.

The not-so-good news is that my wallet was stolen from my bag while I'm on my way out from SM Fairview to cross the streets and ride on a bus. I am so tired and it's night time, time to rush home. Both my hands were full of green bags, so, I had no chance to secure my body bag. Good thing, the coins, SS ID and cellphone were separated in different bag pockets. What that lady pick pocket got is my Philhealth card (renewable), atm card (closed account), receipts, coins from Charms and Crystal that needs blessing and more or less than 300 worth of money. My wallet is bulky because of the cards and receipts but little cash.

When I arrived home, another stolen situation made my ears red, again! This time, it's an online gaming items. One of the shop gamer stole an item from another shop gamer. I hope he reads this post because I'm not afraid to intervene even if my husband tried to stop me. He's a bad influence!

It's 6:30am and I need to get back to sleep, at least before my baby wakes up for his morning breakfast and bath. Good vibes, everyone! :)

A Family in Hunger

In 2006, I stayed in Makati, looking for a job and budget was so tight that I can hardly buy for food. My funds were draining in my pocket. I am not ashamed to tell that some of my housemates had given me a free meal and or free snacks. In which, I am thankful because I haven't eaten for that day, though. I did not tell them that I haven't eaten anything. I satisfy myself with water and another glass of water with pinch of salt.

One night at 6pm - 7pm, I saw a family in one corner, eating left overs in a garbage site owned by one of the Inns in Makati. The father is looking for food in the garbage. While the mother is dividing the food and give it to her two children who were very hungry. I stop on my tracks and thought, "This is the real epitome of a family in hunger and difficulty".From what I saw, I can say, we are very lucky, even if we are grappling with financial difficulties. Still, we are lucky because we eat good food not in garbage. Sleep in a soft bed, I wonder where and how they sleep.

I share this because it is not only one family that strive against hunger! There are millions of families who need our help.  Would you mind giving half of the food in your plate? Let's help United Nations World Food programme for a  fight for Hunger Crisis Worldwide! You can help save lives!

Interested to give? Just click the banner below or the badge in my side bar. 


Thank you very much!

Mañana Habit

Last night, I saved a link and a title for today's post. Words were flowing in my mind that night but I did not bother to write it down or type and saved it as a draft. My thoughts said, "mamaya na lang" and do other online tasks, instead. I thought I can remember the words that flowed in my mind, again. But then, I was wrong. I faced the computer, blank. No creative juices flow. My mind is wandering on something else. Aside from it, I feel sleepy.

It seems I've done nothing right, today. Ah, that "mamaya ka lang" or mañana habit which means "will do it later" will stop. If not, there will be no productions and cash backs! I learn my lesson.
