I was watching a documentary on recovering drug addicts and life in a drug rehab center the other night and it got me thinking. A number of the patients were upstanding citizens, management-level employees, and even civic leaders and I thought really hard about what drove these people to substance abuse. Most of them did [...]
There were too many dark thoughts in my head when I woke up this morning. I didn’t have that much sleep and feeling a bit cranky too. Luckily, my body was too tired that it let me take a nap for at least two hours. The same length of time that my daughter is in [...]
So that’s what it was. A delivery man came to the house two days ago and asked me to sign off on a delivery. I hadn’t ordered anything and my birthday isn’t for at least five months so I turned down the delivery but had a quick feel at the package. Felt light and I [...]
As soon as I found out I’m pregnant, I immediately checked out www.prenatalvitamins.org to see if I can find a pre-natal vitamin that will not make me sick. The old one that I used to take made me dizzy and tired all the time and made my constipation worse as well. However, I still ended [...]

The husband, due some weight loss himself, overheard and started lecturing his mother about how success with diets that promised instant weight loss was as scarce as [...]
The Husband mentioned about upgrading our car when the baby comes out. I haven’t checked the car prices lately but I doubt this could happen anytime soon. First, there’s the hospital bills which is not included in our HMO package, the baptism party, the first birthday party and Sandy’s 7th birthday party which will all [...]
I love seeing kids in tuxedos. They just look like little penguins running around, chasing the girls in equally adorable gowns. That’s why I like weddings with kids in it. Capturing their laughter in video and their unstaged profiles in photographs gives the event a different kind of feel. It also somehow shows that the [...]
I have no knowledge in loose diamonds but after browsing through the brilliance.com website, I learned a few things such as carats, make/cut, color and clarity. I also learned that the only thing I can afford for Sandy and me are 1/3 ctw diamond stud earrings. With the help of their earring size viewer, I [...]
