New Eyeglasses

I think I need to change my eyeglasses soon. My pair is so boring (well, I am boring, anyway heheh), I might look at having something more fun for my next pair. While browsing the net I saw this pair among the Holiday Glass Frames From Zenni Optical:

Ain't that cute and girly?! :) You might also wanna check out the nice pairs they have there. The popular online eyeglasses shop, Zenni, is offering $ 8 Complete Rx Eyeglasses. That's a steal, right?

Credit, credit, credit!

Our phone line (and broadband connection!) went conkers this morning while Ane and I were surfing the net. Of course we were wondering what went wrong. While discussing, my FIL went up to ask us the same question. We share the phone line with them. He sounded so upset and I was like, why did he need to make a big deal out of the situation when we have nothing to do with the lost connection, eh? Turned out he was talking to a customer service representative of a credit card company when the line went dead and the dialtone didn't return right away.

My FIL was discussing a credit dispute on his bill. He is never late on his payments and it concerns him that the company is charging him for something he does not owe. He demanded that the company do something about it and offer him credit repair. Afterall, he only uses his credit card to improve credit score -- and more often than not, the use of the card is for official purchases that his company reimburses. I am sure my FIL will do his best to clear his name.

How about you? Are you interested to know the ways to improve credit? Then check out repairyourbadcredit.com. :)

My kind of Bathroom

...is something like this:

When we build our own house, the bathroom (and the kitchen, too) will be non-negotiable. It has to be my taste. It has to be a place where we can relax (you know the feeling that you want to stay there and probably sleep too? LOL!). It will be a home within a home. Am i making sense at all? Just look at the image above. So homey! Even the bathroom lights complement the rest of the room's elements. Perfect! It's good that I get to blog about this so I have something to look back to when we actually build our home in the future. :)

Starting him young :)

My brother in-law is such a golf fanatic (and so is his dad). So it is just normal that his son, my nephew J, is learning the sport at an early age. My sister supports this hobby too. This picture was taken at Pebble Beach in Monterey where Tiger Woods used to play golf.


Last I heard, the kid already has his own golf clubs (I'll have to ask if they're Nike golf clubs because I've seen a set like this on the net, and they're impressive, looking so nice and neat) set given to him by his grandpa. And this early, his swing is above average for his age.


Move over, Tiger! :)

Unit owners...soon.

The unit's gonna be turned over real soon. Technically, it's not ours but there's a long story behind it I'd rather not discuss here. Bank transactions are in order and they're already corresponding with the developer. We will schedule an inspection and we'll see how it goes. We don't plan to actually live in it...we decided to rent it out. I'm giddy with excitement, though (the way I felt when we we're filling in our home, LOL!).

We plan to semi-furnish it, to up it's value in the market. A shower heater is non-negotiable as it is what we personally want in all our bathrooms! We're thinking of putting a gas range and a dishwasher, too. The first two fixtures would be easy-peasy to decide on, as they are regular/normal fixtures. As for the last one, I think there is a need to read a dishwasher review to check our options. Dishwashers aren't common here (at least for us!) as these consume extra electricity (means more expenses!).

I'll share with you what happens and when we are all done. Yay!

Gold!

The Peso has been going strong against the Dollar, therefore investments have become shaky in the sense that one cannot be too sure of what will happen in the next few months. A website says the best investment at the moment is the purchase of gold -- in coins or bullions. I've once mentioned here, and the site also says, that gold can increase one's purchasing powers and there is a high level of assurance that the wealth is preserved. Monex or MDC has been America's leader in gold investment. Now is the best time to invest in gold. MDC can personally deliver the goods or can help in setting up a bank depository or storage. Let's be wise and put or money where we can get high ROI and is stable.

Effective appliance search online

When my sister and her husband finally decide to buy themselves a new home, most definitely they will have to buy new furniture and appliances. The house they're renting at the moment is semi furnished so they didn't need to worry about stuff anymore. When they finally move out, my sister is likely to find, for instance models of KitchenAid Dishwashers, online. And when she does, I'll probably recommend krillion.com because this website seems effective in pointing to consumers where exactly an outlet is located. This system saves time and effort on the part of the buyer, because everything is neatly categorized. The internet is really a powerful tool, aint it?
