Last night, I watched Howl’s moving castle. At first I thought that the antagonist was the wicked witch of the waste. Apparently, it was Lady Solomon, the king’s head sorceress. This magical anime follows the quest of a girl named Sophie to restore her youth that was stolen by the Witch of the Waste. She searches for handsome-but-mysterious wizard named Howl and his moving castle without knowing what kind of troubles and strange adventures awaited her.
Sophie the heroin girl in the movie, is so passionate that she did not even mind taking in the witch of the waste who casted a spell on her, turning her into a super old hag.
Lady Solomon wanted to vanish them and she even used Sophie’s mom. She had her summoned and sent to the Pendragon’s shop to visit Sophie to intentionally leave a small package which contained a peeping bug and the magic cigars.
The witch of the waste discovered the package, and started puffing the smoke filled the whole place. Calcifer’s fire was put off due to the magic in the smoke. Calcifer is the one who powers Howl’s moving castle. The good fire demon was revived by Howl just in time, and they had an extreme castle makeover.
In the end, Sophie helped Howl get his heart back, and Calcifer was freed, but came back to live with them.
They rebuilt their moving castle and they lived happily ever after.

I wonder how Eskimos live like, but they sure are tough to be able to stand the temperature. Perhaps God made them really special to be able to get immune to the cold surroundings.
I’ve always been interested in their culture and way of living. I wonder how it’s like living in igloos. I’ve heard igloos are just like typical homes inside though, cool, warm and comfortable. But, for sure it is the complete opposite of living in a tropical country.
If we’re having all the fun doing water sports under the sun, they are having a great time doing all types of winter sports.
I guess it’s really fun even just to ride a sled or snow tubes downhill. I don’t actually know how to ski, but I’d love to learn. I also want to try snowboarding.
But I think I need to have the proper clothing because I would probably freeze if I stand outside in the snow for a few minutes, wearing the normal tropical jacket and boots. But for people like them who live in cold places where there is snow almost whole year-round, it’s normal to be walking around in cold and riding snowmobiles, or skiing, and I want to be able to experience that someday.

Yesterday I received an email from a friend who has been living in the US for 8 years and would like to go back here in the Philippines. She told me that she decided to stay here for good. The only thing that makes her worry is that if she can find a decent job in this country even without a college degree. She only have an associate degree (2 year-college) but already has a working experience. She told me she was working in the US since she was 17 years old. Right now she was working in a small office doing clerical work for almost 3 years. I just told her that finding jobs in this country could be difficult since she’d be competing with other job seekers who are college graduates with 4 year course and with experience too but not impossible. I told her not to lose hope and since she came from the US, it could be an advantage for her. I also advised her to try to send resumes to companies before going back home so that she would have a hint if there would be a possibility that companies might get interested to hire her regardless of her educational background. Well, I just wish her all the luck.

One thing I love about outsourcing is that it requires less employees to work around with, you get on-time and more efficient results that costs less, and it also mean less headache.
Like say for instance, when it comes to mailing the company annual newsletters, brochures, or what have you, the best thing a company can do instead of having a department who takes care of it, is just have it done by a company who has years of experience providing the service. Making use of a reliable direct mail printing services rather than hiring somebody or purchasing additional equipments, is definitely wiser, because it would be faster and everything will be ready soon as they are needed.
You just give them a call, provide information and instructions, and set a schedule for it, then voila! before you know it, your newsletters are sent to your clients, prospects, investors, and even right to your very own home or office table.

I’ve had my ASUS 1000HE for a week now. I was finally convinced to buy one after weeks of reading netbook reviews from different websites. I bought this netbook at Cyberzone with the 2gb of ram. With this memory, my ASUS 1000HE can ran both Windows XP and Windows 7 Home Premium with ease. I can run WinAmp, Firefox and Microsoft Word at the same time without having any problems and no lags at all.

The glossy black surface is very prone to fingerprints so I’ve been consistently wiping it clean after every other use. The built-in 1.3 mega pixel webcam works very well, even for a cheap laptop, and I was able to take reasonably good pictures with it. Most of the time I use this netbook whenever I am at the mall or at the coffee shop. The battery life with normal use would lasts about 8 hours. I tried not to set it on power-saving mode to check if it will last longer and it only lasts for about 6 hours which is not bad compared to my old MSI laptop which only lasts about 3 hours. The trackpad’s left and right buttons are a tad stiff at first, but it loosened after a week of use and are now very comfortable to use. I’ve noticed that the ASUS 1000HE detects my home’s wifi network very easily and the internet speeds transfer is just fine.

With this chiclet-style keyboard, I haven’t had any problems in typing with it because the spacing with each keys is just fine. Now, I already transfered all of my programs, games and movies with a usb flash-drive, so I haven’t had any need for an external dvd drive.

Well, all I can say is I am very satisfied and the Eee PC 1000HE is something I will be using consistently. This is just exactly what I need.

We went to the mall a couple of days ago and my dad got stuck on the Canon shop, he was looking at the Canon camera and it seems like he did not want to go home without it. You should have seen the reaction on his face, he was like a little kid who found a new toy and doesn’t want to let go of it. He really likes th EOS 1000D Canon DSLR camera and said that next time he will buy it, but we told him to try to find shops that sells it for a lesser price first, rather than buying the item soon as he sees it, because that’s what happened to me. I bought the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini soon as I knew it was released and found it on the shop, only to find out that other shops are selling it for less. But anyway, let’s leave that behind now, since there’s nothing we can do about it now. I just hope that my Dad listens to our suggestion, because he has this habit of surprising us with things.

I was having a hard time breathing when we arrived home. At first my parents and I only thought that I was just exhausted due to long drive from Laguna to Manila. I tried to relax and lie down in my bed for a while but 15 minutes have past and I didn’t feel better, in fact I was totally gasping for air so my mom already panicked and rushed me to the nearest clinic. Good thing the doctor is still there and immediately ordered her nurse to take my vital signs and used spirometers for lung test to check what’s wrong with me.

After getting the result, the doctor told me that I was having an asthma attack. That’s kinda weird for me coz I thought that my asthma was gone a long time ago and the last time that I had an attack was when I was 6 years old. Well, it kinda sucks to know that I have an asthma now. I guess, all I have to do is take care of myself and be more health conscious.

For me, dancing is the best fat burning exercise. Why? Because one can dance for long hours, have fun, and not notice that you are actually exercising and burning your fats. You don’t believe me? Try to enroll yourself in a dance class and see how much weight you’d lose after a month, without even noticing it, because you get too focused on the fun of dancing, and making friends. Aside from the very popular ballroom dancing that old folks love to do as part time and exercise, hiphop, Pole, belly and break dancing is even becoming really popular today. Not all dancers are really fantastic or have talent, some just simply want to lose weight.

When I get sad or depressed or something makes me feel like crying, I try to divert my attention to other things, such as playing PSP games, or going online to watch movies, youtube videos, listen to music, or sometimes I go down and ride the elliptical or stay in my room and do curl ups, somehow it has a benefit for me because it means instant lower ab workout. When I don’t want my parents to see me with my eyes red and sore from crying, I just stay inside my room curl with my pillows and try to sleep for long number of hours, and when I feel better I go down to watch TV. I don’t get to go out often but whenever my parents go out, I also try to go out with them, so I dont have to stay at home all the time.
