Choosing a New Home




What are your qualifications in choosing a new home? When you ask me about my own qualifications, of course I consider the location. Firstly, your house should be accessible to the public market or mall. Food and clothes are basic necessities and we should live near them. Secondly, education is one of the most important tools to live a good life so our house should be near the schools and universities. Thirdly, we work in order to sustain all our daily and future needs so out house should be near your workplace, or at least accessible in terms of transportation. Lastly, we need to have entertainment and leisure in life so our place or community should be near to parks, resorts, sports and recreation areas and so on. 

To summarize them, we have to choose a better place and best house and Katy Houses for Sale is perfect for you. Our home is part of our life so why not invest for your future by buying a new home?

My Series of Sneezing


I sneeze while I write this post (sobs) because my allergic rhinitis strikes again. I think this is because of my pillow made from a velvety-like cloth. I actually don’t like that kind of cloth since my sinus is sensitive to fiber. I went to the doctor two years ago and he found out that I have allergic rhinitis. He advised me to stay away from allergens such as smoke, dust, pollen (from flowers) and fiber. When allergy strikes, it feels like you have clogged nose, irritated eyes and swollen sinus that takes a long time to heal.  The most difficult part here my series of sneezing. I sneeze almost fifteen times every hour which is inconvenient especially if you are in the office. When I go home, I will dump my pillow to the trash can because I will find a new one like hypoallergenic pillows that can prevent my allergic rhinitis from attacking.

This hypoallergenic pillow has many great features like antimicrobial and fiber-proof ticking to keep out dust mites. Furthermore, this pillow is absolutely washable and dryable so you can get rid of allergy. Whoa! I can’t wait to buy one.

Typhoon Juaning is Coming


PAGASA warns Luzon about the coming of typhoon Juaning. While I write this post, the typhoon just landfall to Aurora province. Schools in all levels are now suspended and more offices are halfday. Metro Manila is under signal number 2 but I am still in the office. I hope everybody will be safe and fine. I am now looking at the view of Manila Bay and the cities of Pasay and Manila from the 42nd floor of our building in Makati, while blogging and sipping a cup of steaming coffee.

Severe Neck Pain



Former Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo  suffers from severe neck pain due to cervical radiculopathy, commonly known as pinched nerve. The doctors say that it happens to some persons when they reach the age of 60. A Wikipedia.com entry on cervical radiculopathy said that the condition can cause “pain, weakness, numbness, or difficulty controlling specific muscles.” This neck pain can also be a result of wrong sleeping position.When we sleep, the pressure lies on the neck, especially when we become older we may be prone pinched nerve.

In order to prevent cervical radiculopathy, proper sitting and sleeping position is necessary. Also, because we use pillow when we sleep, we should choose pillows for neck pain. Choosing the best pillows for neck pain is needed because when you experience cervical radiculopathy, the doctors say that it will be recurring.  The operations for this disease is much more expensive so better be sure and always think that prevention is better than cure.

Blind Dating


Are you guys familiar with blind date? A blind date is a date between two people (commonly male and female) who have not previously met. It is usually set up by friends, relatives, classmates and colleagues of both parties. Some people find this the most hated of all dates. For me, I did not prefer it because it is impractical to spend money on blind dates and that you don’t even know the person. I think it is more important that you get to know the person first and the easiest to do that is through getting online. Nowadays, chatting and social networking are the most common means of communication. Many couples who found their partners online are happier now in their married life. I have a female cousin who met her American husband online. They got married in 2003 and they are now happy in their life in America. I guess online dating is better than blind dating. You have to make sure about the person who will possibly be your partner in the future.

The song “In Your Eyes” by George Benson is one of my favorite songs of all time. I sing it in videoke with feelings haha! Talking about the song, it reached a peak position of number 7, and remained in the chart for ten weeks. This song was written by Michael Masser (music) and Dan Hill (lyrics). Jeffrey Osborne has his own version released in 1986. Here is the lyrics of the song guys, enjoy singing it! Happy Music Monday!!!!    

In Your Eyes



I think I finally know you
I can see beyond your smile
I think that I can show you
That what we have is still worthwhile
Don’t you know that love’s
just like the thread
That keeps unravelling but then
It ties us back together in the end

CHORUS
In your eyes
I can see my dream’s reflections
In your eyes
found the answers to my questions
In your eyes
I can see the reasons why our love’s alive
In your eyes
we’re drifting safely back to shore
and I think I’ve finally learned
to love you more

You told me that life changes
and that no one really knows
Whether time would make us strangers
Or whether time would make us grow
Even though the winds of time will change
In a world where nothing stays the same
Through it all our love will still remain
REPEAT CHORUS

In your eyes I can see the
reasons why our love’s alive
In your eyes
we’re drifting safely back to shore
and I think I’ve finally learned
to love you more
