Neck and shoulder pains

woman-computer-neck-pain

Do you also suffer from neck pain when in front of the computer for an extended period of time? I do. My sister does, too. We both don’t know how to remedy it except massage each others’ shoulders and then rest for a while. I think standing up from your desk from time to time might lessen the neck and shoulder pain. Or stretching your hands up in the air. I do the latter often and I feel as if the pain lessens.

Do you experience this, too? What do you do?

Loud conversation

You know how men are always on the lookout for aids in the bedroom. Products to enhance their performance and such. I think you cannot blame them. Men are egotistical by nature. They are also competitive. They don’t want to be labeled lame or a failure. I am no longer surprised when I heard two men in the railway station talking about vigrx plus. They were talking about loud, mind you. They were probably deaf because people were looking their way and they didn’t mind it. Or are they salesmen pitching the product to those who might be interested listening to their conversation?

I ended up laughing along with others with the sexual misadventures of the older guy. It was really funny! Suddenly, people were no longer in a hurry to go home!

Grandpa and his creations

We were checking tools in the garage when we found the box cutter of grandpa. He used to have all these various tools in his shed that he used when repairing a lot of things at home. He was a carpenter and he lived up to it by having all the tools one needs.

I wish I got the creative side of him. He used to make all the little chairs for us his grandchildren. He also made two rocking chairs for him and grandma. He even created a treehouse for us when we were little kids and it still sits atop two branches of the tree in our backyard. Whenever we think of grandpa, we think of good and fun times as kids.

A luxury

sleeping

Sally needs to get allergy bedding for her. She is having a hard time sleeping when her allergy attacks. With an allergy-free bedding, she is assured of a good night’s sleep.

For some people, sleeping is already a luxury. There are those who work two jobs a day, or those who have insomnia. Or those who opt to stay awake because they are doing something to increase their income. That’s why those people don’t want anything to distract them from their sleep. Not even an allergy.

Off the cliff

off the cliffWhy does it feel like you want to jump off the cliff when you are so stressed out and you like you are being cornered by life? I hate feeling that way. I hate being nervous. I hate being scared. I hate being pressured.

Whenever someone in the family is being threatened by life, I feel like fighting back for them. I also feel scared and cornered. I feel like I am not ready if something bad happens. If it’s just me, I wouldn’t feel that way. But if it’s someone I love…

Life just sometimes feel like you are jumping off a cliff. What’s down there is always unexpected. You might be seeing water but it could be rocks. You can land badly and end up dead. Or you can land safely, your fall cushioned.

Inevitable

Death is inevitable. We cannot avoid it. Those who said that they found the so-called elixir of life are lying. News flash: there’s none! You can probably dance around death. Avoid it temporarily. But it will still come get you eventually, when you least expect it!

But when you think of it, death isn’t all that bad. It isn’t fair to give it that bad rep it has. It can be kind, too. Imagine a person suffering extremely… Death is the only thing that can relieve the person of his suffering. It can be kind, too.

And in some cases, death brings families closer together.

In our family, we’ve experienced death one time too many. We don’t welcome it but we are realistic enough to face it with an open mind.

Off to a road trip

RoadTrip

Vera and her best friend Jody are going in a road trip by next week. They will be on and off the road for two weeks visiting friends and love ones along the way. They’ve been planning the trip for several months now and are both very excited for it! They got an emergency assistance service to be on standby so that whatever happens on the road, should they need an assistance, there will be someone to call. They also got their supplies and whatever else they need already. And their vehicle was checked thoroughly by their go-to car shop.

They’re bringing their cameras and camcorders with them plus lots and lots of enthusiasm to explore the road!

A really good boss

One of my cousins work for an amusement company. It is owned by a foreigner who has been treating him and the other employees really well. He’s been with the company for ten years now and he has no plans of resigning or looking into other jobs.

He told me that his boss just thought of replacing all the office furniture and buying brand new ones. According to his boss, it is his way of saying thank you to all his employees for the continued support to the company all these years. My cousin is, of course, very happy with the announcement and have been hard at work looking for replacement office furniture. And his conviction to stay in the company until it no longer needs him grew even more!

Into hip hop

Of course my little cousins are into hip hop. You can see them wearing hip hop clothing from time to time. They look cute and I know it’s clean fun so we indulge them. Plus those kids study hard and help their parents when they are needed.

My brother, on the other hand, is now into simple clothes. I think he outgrew all those fad clothes already. I remember he would requests those clothes whenever we went shopping. But now, he is more into shirts and jeans. And I like my brother’s get up just like that.

Up for promotion

Paulie bought several hand dryers for their company. He was able to get a huge discount because he found out that a long lost cousin works for the vendor. Paulie is working doubly hard to impress his bosses because he is up for a promotion. He wants that badly and he knows that the huge discount he got will be a big plus for him.

He needs the promotion because his family is expanding. His wife will give birth in three months with their first baby. He is also still paying for a townhouse he got for him and his wife five years ago. So staying employed and getting that promotion are the two things he is focusing on right now.

Being busy = lack of appetite

Being busy can make you lose weight. When I have too much work to do, I forget to eat. Mainly because I hate to break my train of thought if I get up from my computer desk. I hate distraction in any form, especially when I am on a roll. And eating falls under the distraction category. Thus, I really lack the appetite to eat when I am hard at work.

I’ve been reading diet pill reviews and I don’t know if I can take one. I am really afraid to get sick being overweight and all but I am also afraid to take in anything that can adversely affect my body. I think I will have to consult with a medical expert first before anything else.

Can’t stop!

Don can’t stop smoking. He’s been told time and again that it’s bad for him, more so because he had lung problems when he was younger. Being the stubborn one in their family, he just kept on doing what he wants, damn the consequences! So his family did some research and found the electric cigarette. They told him about it and Don seemed more open to the idea of using that instead of the real one.

These days being sick can be a big hassle not only for you but for those around you, too. It’s not just the sick person who will suffer but everyone around him will be affected just as much. Better to take care of one’s health than to sic upon others your misery when you are already sick.

Too much temptation

lose-weight

When there is a banquet spread in front of you, I don’t think you can resist temptation. It’s just too much! That’s what my friend was telling me about the other day. She lost five pounds for three weeks she’s working out. She gained back three pounds in just ten days!

I was telling her to find the safest fat burners she can find in the market and try it together with her daily regimen. Who knows, she might end up being able to overcome her weight troubles soon!

Pasta Aligue with Shrimps

pasta aligue with shrimps

I am craving for a Pasta Aligue with Shrimps right now. I am a person who loves to eat rice for every meal but when there’s pasta, I’d go for it. The thing is, there’s no one at home who really loves to cook. My sister would cook pasta from time to time. I love her carbonara! But other than her…

I wish I didn’t stop cooking. But I did. I think I lost my passion for it. If I am not too busy anymore I think I will try and cook once again.

Online advertising

My sister’s company is looking for experts on link building services. They are currently planning their online advertising campaign to be launched within the next two months. Their company realized the importance of online advertising the last time they launched their new insurance product. It was a big success!

They will launch another insurance product and they want a similar but better online advertising campaign.

Now, they want to try the CPA publisher network. They are looking for experts on affiliate marketing. Their main competitor employed the same campaign and was able to get a big chunk of the market.

Quote of the day

quote

If we agree that the bottom line of life is happiness, not success, then it makes perfect sense to say that it is the journey that counts, not reaching the destination.

I do believe that it’s really not the result itself but the quest to achieve that result is the one that really counts. Just like what the song says…

There’s always gonna be another mountain, I’m always gonna wanna make it move. Always gonna be an uphill battle…
Sometimes I’m gonna have to lose.
Ain’t about how fast I get there. Ain’t about what’s waitin’ on the other side…
It’s the climb.

;)

Dreaming of hitting the beach

HittinTheBeach

I get fixated over something I want. Like right now. All I can think of is hitting the beach, bringing with me a couple of good novels, and total relaxation! That’s what I’ve been thinking for the past few weeks now. It’s just too bad that the opportunities for me to hit the beach were all wasted. There were circumstances that prevented me from hitting the road.

Money. I am short of funds because of more important expenses. Time. I have been working doubly hard for the past few weeks. I figured instead of hitting the beach or going anywhere else, I might as well spend my time working.

But one of these days, even if it’s raining already, I will go to a resort and do what I’ve been dreaming of doing… chill out and have fun!

;)
