Economic Times II

The non-stop on and on bad news about the TRILLION DOLLARS DEBTS of the United States of America is deafening, maddening almost everyone around the world. It's becoming redundant already. It's almost like time stood still but the bean counter keeps going up. Hysterically hip or what the US Pres. Obama can still smile against all these odds. US is the most powerful country in the world. It is known as the Super power, and whoever sits at the Office of the President of the United States of America, whoever sits at the White House knows that the President has the ultimate power to declare war, wage war if necessary or vetoed laws, anything that threatens their country economically and politically simply gets the job done by extreme measures. What are those? Need I explain? But here's one very important aspect of their unique role in the IMF system.

1. The US Dollar was the KEY currency.
2. US placed squarely in the IMF System of International Liquidity
3.International Liquidity - total amount of reserves hold by various nations.
4. Each country has International reserves called the PEG System in the form of:
1. GOLD - Primary revenues
2. Foreign Exchange in dollars
3. Contributions each country to IMF. Unconditional rights to withdraw its past contribution. This is where the problem is. You know why? I'll tell you later.
4. How reserves are increased?
    a. Digging more gold if there's any maybe try alchemy
    b. Increase in Foreign holdings of US Dollars

Lastly the IMF was empowered to create the SDRs or the Special Drawing Rights to cover balance of payments deficits. (The SDR is similar to the project I once created in a short story I have written entitled: Autumn Rose) another novelette I've written also have the same projection how SDR is best represented entitled: Cracker Jack Lobster.

What happened when all the GOLD assets are liquified? The economic system of every country depends on their environment and its resources. The land area of the United States is bigger than any countries in the world therefore it's a matter of measurement and correct counting. Simple MATHEMATICS.

Economic Times

Last night before I went to sleep the news on TV is very disturbing. I found it hard to sleep so I stayed late again and watched some other shows on TV. Then here was the sarcastic show of TMZ. You know those group of celebrity photographers and columnists. They are bunch of giggly punk-like group who are so annoying. Excuse me for my description but that's what you're portrayals on television. Maybe it calls for your role as the camera grills for something that can stir controversy. Anyway, I read in another blog > several people are paid to lie. Maybe sort of white lies. What are white lies? Could it be gimmick? Publicity stunt to make it appealing for public view or just to spin up volume of controversial issues. Not all that we can read in the newspapers, magazines or watch on television are 100% real, true story or else you'll be plundered and plungered down the stream.It's fun watching them until one guy was being roast as a p- king. lol. Yeah look-alikes eh? The "guy" on TV news recently who committed mass murder is a look alike of a known celebrity. Then the girl who killed her child she's a look-alike of the leading-lady of Clooney in "Up In The Air." Oh my! What a crazy world. Is it my vision is blurry? That's why we cannot judge or be judgmental. Even two identical twins have differences you know. Then here comes news about the "tracking business" known for government task force. That's okay. It is for good of the government that's good for all of us. What is wrong here is when the people assigned to the task force over used and abused the system.

There is that movie of Will Smith in his portrayal as a tax collector and he keeps following the people whom he needs to collect taxes. He works for the IRS and at first the movie revolved in a complicated way as if the IRS agent seemed like a stalker instead of being an agent of the government. At the end of the movie? Well you have to watch it. I should have this topic in my other blog but had my "politicking awesomeness there." Flip-flops eh? Actually it's a zigzag. I am making waves. vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv Ay mali! Planting rice pala ito. ewan. I should make use of my blogs as an alternative use for my Economics background. Uhm, want me to start now with Economics?

FIRST it's not end of the world yet. When you say we are at end's it doesn't mean doomsday as what everyone used to say to scare people. Enlightenment is not a scare tactic. When you are studying Economics it means > it is a social science that seeks to allocate scarce human and non-human resources for their alternative use. Scarce resources since the time of Dr. Jose P. Rizal. In his time the population has reached BILLIONS already. In his time too many monks, priests,nuns,  eunuchs, military,  and other common people pledged to chastity. When Communism was implemented in China, each family has to minimize the birth rate. Each family should have two to three children only. How you can feed billions of people? Not enough food to sustain the growing population. Those who cannot abide the laws fight a different kind of war. Others move or migrate to other countries where they cannot be ruled or govern by a strict compliance. Less populated areas were them inhabited and used for rehabilitation, a place where they can start a new life. The old Chinese were then upgraded to being Japanese, Koreans, Vietnamese. I don't know what will happen to its DNA RNA sequencing after that. Ask Shelldon.
DNA- RNA of the Filipinos? The last result of the sequencing process is the BROWN RACE. Yan na nga. O babalik ka na naman sa Yellow Race? According to D. H. Robertson > "people take value in the yellow metal because it is the choice of so many people within a given population and most of all it fancy(ies) the savages."

The Strongest And The Weakest

 I had a terrible bad cold for three days now. My runny nose is flowing like water in a faucet. Being out in the yard breathing the air with pollen and other allergy-causing infectant had me sick but somehow managed to report here on my blogs. At least this is a kind of "work" at home that there is nobody minding the time and quality of work because being the boss of myself I am responsible for what is written here. I am the one responsible for the editing, changing, and control of what is happening here on daily basis. Whatever opinion, views and reviews are mine alone. I feel upset when somebody take my ":work" as if they are the ones doing it. I mean the idea belongs to them. WTF! See I have to fight the irritants. People and debris that are so very annoying to the point that it weakened my immune system. Anyway, knowing too many people are weaker than me healthwise have to send message of sympathy. To those who are grieving because of death in the family, for those who are sick, suffering from life time ailment and for those who have cancer, stroke, in a coma, paralyzed and handicapped GET WELL SOON. Prayers help you know. Believe that there is always GOD who can help you and help us in all our sufferings.

 Harvest Time is early for us. The husband brought the biggest caulliflower from the garden the other day. He was proud that his garden yields properly and on time. There are big cabbages as big as a platter also.

More leafy green vegetables. Spinach, brocolli, swisschards. He was looking for zucchini that he thought will yield bigger than it should be but found nothing in the garden. Where they go? Few days from now will have to harvest lots of beans, green peas, corn and other herbs. We'll be seeing lotsa greens and that's great for health. Health is wealth.

Quote: The weaker amongst us receives. The strongest (er, ei) works. Or you can have it this way: The weakest, weaker, weak  amongst us receives while the strongest, the stronger, the strong people have to work.

Uhm my grammar is a grabber eh?

Siesta and fiesta is over! Time to work. Hubby and I planted the emerald golden gaeity, rhododendrons, mums, and dahlias at the front yard. Perrenial and shrubs that we know the deer wont eat. Besides planting plants that cannot adapt well with the 4 seasonal changes in this country we'd better have options. Roses are becoming common or the usual choice but it is now the symbol of lost, grief, desperation, sadness, and death. Sorrowful mysteries are not my kind of forte. So, it is the most beautiful flower alright however its significance is not what I have to partake.

Summer is not over yet the commercial trading atmosphere is now replacing summer stuff and gadgets out from their shelves opening to the autumn season the bringer of colorful foliage and a different kind of warmth inside the house but cold cooler breeze outside. Looks like summer is just a short holiday for us here. More birthdays to celebrate then it's school time for the kids.

I don't know really what I have accomplish for days keep passing like minutes in a day. That's how fast and quick foxes are. lol. I have too many friend request at the other FB account sad to say unable to open it that's why I opened a new account.  This time I have more control over who I can add in my friend list. Choosy and snobby little me. Can you blame me being fuzzy, choosy and such a snob?

Then a friend sent a message she read over the net about "Doomsday end of Times." Oh me oh my! You mean 2012? The movie has it with such a beautiful themesong at the end of the film is such a romantic treat although the kind of "ark" they want to relay message with is just the HOPE they want to inform everyone. Dudes and dudette just stare at the big map of the two continent USA and USA. Can you spot the big or huge giant hull? That's the ARK. The Ark covered with iceberg long time ago and it's now submerged in water. What's really inside the ark has been found long time ago. Now to make the process simpler and for everyone to know before it's too late for the rest of us here ...the only solution to the debt crisis of the world is COPY what SOLOMON did for mankind. That's the solution.  And folks that's not stupidity it is PRACTICALITY, LOGIC and WISDOM.

The ability to do more work is a sign of success. Please drink moderately. Sunday today right? See, even at the Church the priest wants you to participate in drinking a small amount of wine.

Groundwork

 Hydro-seeding technology although simpler, inexpensive way to to fill up your yard with fabulous grass for your lawn yet you'll wait 3 to 4 months to have the right grass fill your yard depends on the kind of soil (acidity, alkalinity, salinity?) and the water intake include the kind of weather on daily basis. Then you're not sure whether all the grass will grow on the right spot. There'll be abundant of grass on one spot but bald on the other side. So the choice, best choice is to order turf. But of course you need to call the gas company first before you dig. Before all this process took place there should be a PLAN.
1. Ready all the materials needed for the underground sprinkler.
2. Measure the yard so that you'll know how many pipes are needed to be used for the underground sprinkler, and how many grass turf needs to be ordered. 
3. Digging the ground with shovels and madax takes time maybe 2 days depends on how tough the soil is. And if you are in a hurry to attend to other job of yours you can rent a heavy machinery to make it happen within an hour or less. Somehow it's economical to use the heavy machine instead of having workers that you have to pay for hour's wages and then when they complained of backaches then you'll pay for their medical. A chiropractor's fee just a consultation is probably $25/hour.
4. When the ground is ready for the installing of pipes and sprinkler ...

 5. The main base where the valve is connected to the water pipe-faucet. Cover it most of the time. After all the pipes are installed and the ground is cover with soil then try first if the w ater sprinkler works.

 Wow! It works! Absolutely.

 Now stop the sprinkler from the switch board (base) and continue to clean the ground. Rake the ground diligently, evenly, throw the pebbles and other debris on the ground designated for the gravel pit. Once the ground is ready for the next plan

 Time to order the turf. The delivery-driver arrived on time. He is seen hoisting down the turf carefully on the ground. Load after load of turf. Thank you.

 The yard is cleaned, free of pebbles, debris , now it's time to sprinkler fertilizer on the ground. Lay the rolls of turf placed them accordingly and properly one by one unroll the turf as if it's a placemat or door mat on the yard. It is hard work that's why men who are healthy, strong, and fit usually have this kind of job. Make sure the doormat of grass is snuggled firmly on the ground.

Next,  time to soak the grass with lots of water. The grass absorb so much water.

 At the backyard, the work continues. With enough men working to fill the yard with turf takes few hours to finish the job done. Great! Congratulations!

NOW let us celebrate!

WATER! WATER! WATER! The giver of life.

The EYES have IT

Millions of us now in the

 Blogging community and to stop one from blogging and inter-acting with the others lead these hackers hacking and stopping what I'm trying to accomplish in one day. Know what don't stop me while I am doing this blogging at this moment. You can email me or leave a decent comment in the email box. I think that's the most ethical way to do so.

Respect me and the other bloggers who used this site for "entertaining" your boring world. Blogging is the right way to do when your country cannot afford a decent job for every workers who would like to work. Volunteering is for those wealthy, and people without experience. Or volunteering is for those who would like to go to war or want to add credentials for their blank resume. Hey don't get me wrong here. I was a volunteer at a very young age. I volunteer for the school during my Elementary years. I was a student-teacher. I was a volunteer for Girl Scout of the Philippines, PRC or Philippine Red CRoss. I'm also a volunteer for my mother's Voluntary work for 6th District within a barangay in our hometown, where in she was the President of the club. There is nothing wrong with volunteering as long as you've got nothing to do at home or you want to be special and want to help others who need your help. In today's world, volunteering should be for the rich and famous who should spare their time and money for they have so much, they have ENOUGH.

Do I have enough? I don't think so. When my "enough" is being rationed and distributed then that is not enough. I have to do more as I please, and as much as possible not to be taken advantage by the people who always think about negativity. I am optimistic in all what I can do. After all I am a multi-tasker. That's why husband has given me a new laptop. He bought it from his hard earned money and I should use it in a positive way.

 So here is the new laptop. Hope that no virus, no hacker will able to get in into the system.

Or else I'll go ballistic and use my superhuman power. Yeah just like this "woman" with the bionic eyes. And you think you're the only one who had those "EYES?"

Conscience! Do You Have it?

Every one's a writer. Every one's an author of book. Anybody here who is a blogger because you are using a blog. Therefore you are a blogger. Oh darn why I'm so philosophical? I stand corrected for my being sarcastic once again for it is the topic for the day > sarcasm< the latest act of humorism in the blogworld where I now live. Well, I am just an honest blogger who blogs rants of my day to day blessings of whatever that occurs in my mind. My over active mind which is my think tank and the source of the strategy being used by economists, astronauts, most of the time by politicians. Yeah baby! I love to brag. I should BRAG it really and truthfully for the sake of whodunit who assumed that their idea belongs to them and they are the ones being paid> WTH! What on earth they have to do such nasty thing ? FGS! Don't they know who I am? Why don't you steal everything about me? Steal my name and steal my whole family.

On being deliberate? Why? What's the point? You are getting all the  success in your life because of my creativity wherein I don't get credit for. Most of all I only have one query. Do you have conscience?

evjvt2011

Hohum what to write now when almost everyone got the topic that I adore. Hmp! What a life! So okay let us follow somebody's topic such as watching movies together with the family as a means of "bonding" together as if "a family that prays together, stay together." To tell you frankly the last time that my family watch a movie at the cinema was 5 years ago. I think it was the last episode of the Star Wars. See I can't even remember the actual year and the whole story not because I was asleep while their eyes are wide open viewing the whole saga. It was the SW episode wherein leading lady Padme (Princess Lea's mother) and Hayden aka Anakin (Darth Vader) got married. That was it and that time it was 3 weeks after the pandemonium of fans gone and out of the cinema and only few people watched that movie at the cinema..that's the time we had chosen 'cuz the hubby wants the cinema to only few people so that he wont hear the screaming of fans. That's the last family get together movie watching that is so boring. After that I didn't go to the cinema anymore. It's no fun here because the population of this town or city (?) is just barely less than 50,000. Wide open spaces low dense population. Wow! Where am I? Thank goodness for Google, Facebook and MySpace for it's over populated. lol. Years passed by and I really want to watch movie but with group of people who love to watch new movies before it gets into DVDs or CDs whatever. There are no good movies to watch so I waited, waited until there is that very ineteresting film that is more than like paranormal. It was the movie KNOWING of Nicolas Cage. While my sister and I on a queue about to pay for the ticket, there was this toddler who when he saw me pointed his finger at me, chuckling, giggling and then playing peek-aboo of somekind as if he knew me from somewhere. The toddler hid at  his parents legs cheerfully mimic my facial expression. Funny child. He probably thought I'm a clown. He he he. I found that incident weird. I don't even know the family. Anyway, forget about that children are like that when they see "angelic face." lol. OMG! Grabe naman ako. Angelic daw. Ay naku diwata pala. Maybe he keeps watching "Timmy Turner's The Fairly Odd Parents." You know the boy with two fairies who give him everything that he wants and wished for.

Inside the cinema, while we're watching KNOWING, I noticed the two old women sitting at the back. The other one keeps touching my hair. I don't find it funny. It was awful and frightening. Bakit kaya? After watching the movie I felt something strange, all of a sudden I'm having sort of allergy. You think it's the movie having an impact on my metabolism or the old woman at the back of our seat did something nasty  on my hair? Ah crazy thought. Coincidence that when I watched Gizmo and  Gremlins story of those alien furballs with psychedelic attitude and vices caused some allergic reactions on my skin. Just by watching them.

The Tree That Barks (The Barking Tree)

The photo above, I mean on the left side (changed the location) is an album for photographs given by my husband's aunt who passed away last year? Or two years ago?  The dogwood flowers she painted on that kind of medium. She is also the woman who painted the "Light house" that is on display at the right hand corner of my blogsite. She is a teacher, was a teacher who valued courtesy and simplicity. A very strict well -mannered woman. Too bad she's no longer with us today. Know what I first thought the city workers will plant the dogwood trees along the highways and side walks instead they planted maple trees. Ah, it's okay they are both attractive trees although only one gives flowers that is more than pleasing to see and admire. The first time I have notice of dogwood tree is when I joined my kids in grade school for their picnic and field trip in Parksville, the Butterfly world where that tree stands alone and hundreds of monarch butterflies hang along its branches, leaves and flowers. Then we have a chance to view the bin where the rest of the butterflies, caterpillar and eggs nestled so warmly in their own habitat and I started telling stories  to the kids who are willing to listen about it's life cycle. The French teacher was impressed and asked how I know so much about it. I told her it was my thesis and sericulture is a favorite subject of mine. (Sericulture: is the raising of silkworms for raw silk production).

Then our field trip progressed as time goes by. The whole class were seated comfy inside the bus and it made me feel like as if I was in a "Magic School Bus."

Our walk within the inside part of the forest that seemed to look like Cathedral of century old trees (douglas fir, sequoia, spruce, hemlock, evergreens, etc) so tall and bigger than ordinary trees that's why its called "cathedral." In that shady area of the forest are dogwood trees also with its prominent white flowers, its heart-shaped petals with transparent stripes, yellow pollen at the middle. It's nice. While the school children came running around in search of their teacher-adviser majority of them unable to speak the English language. I went with them,  joined them in their search looking for their French teacher who at that time also looking for her whole class who almost disappeared along the big wooded area. Then I heard my kids' adviser who is fluent in English and French, about to scream to the children who would rather tap the cold chilly water running so wild at the streamlike body of water. I couldn't say it's a river. No,  not that small area of watery slope. But it's bigger than a canal. Don't assume it's Panama canal it's not what I try to picture for you to understand.

Now picture this atrocity and language barrier from an old movie of Martin Short. Hard of hearing, low on battery or just that the pronunciation is bad that when Martin heard about "gorilla" he was smiling, with grins on his left and right cheeks wanting to see the gorilla in excitement only to be shocked, thrilled and disgusted that the gorilla is not the ape but the "guerilla."

Fiction The Way To Go?

I asked the husband about a certain question regarding my blogs while he was pre-occupied reading the latest novel of Wilbur Smith (Those In Peril). He is an avid fanatic reader of anything penned by famous authors: Wilbur Smith, Patrick O'Brian and Douglas Reeman. Since he likes reading I asked his opinion about writing. What can I make my blogs story worthy of reading because I am running out of idea. Maybe because I have too much idea and too many blogs that need my attention plus having short story-novels that I haven't finish editing yet. But my, oh my cannot stop my mind from thinking even out loud so I'd better have them written. It's easy to have stories that revolve around the family, relatives and the whole clan although what is not good is when the members of the family backfires on some issues that they might find unfair or misinterpreted, most of all too sensitive for them because they cannot accept the truth or simply they don't find the story uplifting or it's a no joke for them as in they have low battery. I mean they have low sense of humor and they cannot take humor only drama. So really dunno what to write if I have to tell stories ---REAL STORY so I would rather write FICTION instead. Make everyone happy. Make no mistake and make no enemies. So, husband was saying, showing me the book that's why he is reading that book of Wilbur because it's FICTION.

WARNING: The book: THOSE IN PERIL is strictly FOR ADULTS ONLY. Recommended for mature readers.

Not my type of book. Sorry.

Home Sweet HOME

I had a wonderful summer vacation at Fernland. My sister lives in a cozy rancher with her family and her yard has plenty to showcase for garden enthusiast like me. On her beautiful garden: Ornamental plants such as blooming arrays of healthy daisy seemed to welcome us with a smile  showing its radiance of color, gladiolas on the way to main entrance door, climbing clematis on its trellis about to swirl its vines and loops to the gutter of the roof of their house. Lots of   shrubs beside a tiny pond with bright yellow dazzling flowers, too many hanging baskets filled with assorted colors of petunia, variety of roses in its colorful colors and the most amazing is the mint colored petals of a very distinct rose side by side with the sprawling maroon colored shrubs. I forgot the name, it has a bell at the tip of my tongue. They have maple trees, cherry trees, apple trees and other trees I did not ask. Anyway I enjoyed watching the robins as they chirped and flew, and stayed for a while on top of the trees bearing red berries. What a sight, it seemed endless. My sister has a green thumb, a good gardener and it shows perfectly on her amazing garden where trees, shrubs, flowers and veggies grow in a very healthy way.

My trees are the post of the house, the sturdy wood on the wall, the wood flooring, cabinets and cupboards, tables and chairs, include the china cabinet. My kind of flowers are fake, made of artificial soft silk and satin. The fruits are bought from the supermarket and stays in the fridge or canned fruits. We may have different appreciation of the way we see things, on being objective and subjective on the nature of things but we appreciate ourselves as sisters through thick and thin. We eat the same kind of food, we binge on several favorites, she cooked great food and desserts to my amazement.

She's a great cook and so do I but...
I don't know if I could match her patience, her passion and desire to grow plants and till the land for its fruit bearing trees, and ornamental plants which give flowers and beautiful foliage. One in the family who tends to the garden is good enough. My husband is just like her having green thumb, my father has it too. I want to be different. I have my own aspiration, as much as own dream and desire, goal and whatever one makes for the pursuit of truth and happiness let them have their passion. My passion as it always be is something different from anybody else as I tend or tried to be original. I hate following. I want to lead myself and if there will be followers it's just okay with me.

I don't follow where I lead. It's great to be a leader to one just follower ---myself.

Filipiniana Section

You know what I like in the Filipiniana section of Shoemart? The handicrafts mostly made from capiz or handfinished and polished seashells from abalone, oysters and other crafts made from other shellfish unknown to me. They're truly valuable piece of art. The ingenuity of filipino hands are shown in a very meticulous way of shaping Filipino arts and culture. After school my friend Luz and I frequently visit that department store for its product that are highly graded for excellence when it comes to product quality. Great for export that's why. Other Filipiniana section is located somewhere in Quiapo where handicrafts abound. In that area you can bargain for discount. Smart way of trading. No need to pay so much for the price that you can afford especially when you love haggling. Oh my love to shop. Shopping is normally a lady's thingy, it's a way of life.

Above photo:  Wall decor made from capiz (seashells)

Handicraft : Placemats, coasters made from the finest capiz and table napkins with embroidery made from the finest thread blend of abaca and jusi.

When to use the placemat is probably today? It's my brother Angelito's birthday today so HAPPY BIRTHDAY my dear brother. Hope you have special pancit for long life while we're having pancit palabok the choice of my children for lunch. Uhm, not to forget it's the TWINS birthday tomorrow.
HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY CADE and TAMARA. Wishing you more birthdays to come.

Expression

It's all but natural to daydream. As a matter of fact every writer is a dreamer, daydreamer, illusionist, nightdreamer, and full of idea. Writers never run out of idea. It's like one click of a mouse something in their mind sparks a certain magical moment of enthusiastic endeavour. Moments of glory even agony of defeat. But so what if its defeat, the more of this emotional outburst the better. The high and lows of emotions, happy or sad, bitter sweet, triumph over agony. All of these euphoria of emotions is needed by a writer, aspiring, amateurish or veteran. Life is not just a field of happiness but also of other kind of feelings and emotions that readers can adapt to and tell the world about the human nature of every character in a story, in a book, and these portrayals of the many variety of actions, feelings and even sensation should be written to accordingly to the delight of the receiver or readers who read your books. Without balance of these important literary meaning the story is such a bland and your reader might brand your story as boorish and without sense. So time and time again when I found myself being stock or stuck to one and only way of sending messages to my readers of my blog have to discontinue another phase and open up another door to something new. It leaves a meaningful mystery to what is set up in the first place, and leave the readers hanging for the next episode. Or it will bore readers and leave your space and patronize others when its overbearing. Well truth is up to you to leave or stay or come back when you cannot find other ways to relate to. But you know what? I am a reader too so I love reading whether a story is boring or not. So many books so little time. So much stories to tell, not so much space.

Extra Work

 Twenty pounder? Truth is the biggest caught for the day is more than 30 lbs. Husband got lucky that day. So far this is his biggest catch after having just 15 lbs, 20, or 22 pounders. Not bad at all. The good thing about living in the province or rural area is the vicinity to the forest and the ocean. All you need is a boat, fishing rods, net, trap, and the license to do it. You wont get hungry here. In the forest, you can have edible source of food such as the deer for its venison, wild turkey if there's any, moose do you eat moose? When it comes to vegetation, the forest offers wild veggies such as mushroom but be careful in picking them for there are few mushrooms that you can't eat for some of them are poisonous. There are wild berries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries in the bushes although we'd rather buy from the supermarket. I let the birds eat those berries in the forest.

 Besides, I would prefer fruits in can. Awesome canned fruit from the Philippines like the ones canned by Dole. Fruit in assorted variety (pineapple, apple, cherries, grapes, pears, banana, melon or cantaloupe, nectarines, papaya and mangoes)  rich in its sweetened syrup from its natural fruit flavour is the most delicious of all fruits especially if you have them mixed with Nestle cream and condensed milk. Chill it in the fridge for few minutes and taste it's awesome goodness later.

What that tiny dinosaur doing on my glass of fruit salad?

Hmm---just to remind you about the olden days of the land before time. When dinosaurs roam the earth.  Such a long pre-historic story while I wait for the husband to clean the fish and we can make them into sardines.

Oh here it is the giant pot is already boiling. This how we do it. Actually thank the husband for his knowledge in fishing, cooking, steaming and the many "jack of all trades" he learnt from his parents, educators and from books. In the truest sense some of these are based from his experience living in a logging camp owned by his parents in the 1940's.

Knowledge is power and when you have so much survival skills you wont get hungry nor get out of place.

Sunday Craving

It's not easy for me to choose the kind of footwear that I can use for everyday walk along where I can go and lead up to ...I seldom go out anyway. Most of the time in a solitary confinement at the comfort of my home. Yeah a place I called my home for the time being until I found the right place, right time moment. In my confinement to soliloquy threading literary works with others who are also in the same line of work oh yes writing is a kind of work also but in a sense that you don't get to touch some nasty dirt outside. So before my topic get out of place I want you to focus your eyes or vision on what you can see above in that photograph. My left foot in front of the mirror. Then look at the other side of the mirror and you'll notice that the right foot is the one that is on the other side. Isn't that very interesting? Actually it is fascinating and my very conscious mind have a little problem dealing with it. As if I'm sort of retard eh? I wonder if somehow we all have our other side of life behind the mirror. That everyone of us have a pair of twins and we can only see and mirror our twin sibling on that kind of mirror. Copying and imitating us. Simply mimic every part of our whole body and attitude. What if that other part of us, our twin comes out from the mirror and do whatever that other person likes to do without our permission? What If?

Yeah, what if that the tree of knowledge is not apple but pears? Chromosomes seemed to be in pairs right? So it's not apple but pears. lol. While the tree of life is of course something that has all the elements of life and survival. The tree of life should have all the natural element of producing the most vital important reproductive organ that can withstand the test of time and never dies. That's what a tree of life is able to provide life as it is naturally without any support from other source because it is the main source of everything. Coconut tree is the choice of the forefathers who then able to survived and live to tell of its abundant life. However, is that the truth? Now I found myself craving for buco pie, coconut milk, and coconut meat for buco salad.

Something Weird?

My daughter's hair got curly and got entangled most of the time and she had problem keeping it straight anyway that she asked me to cut it. Problem with brushing the hair, and its getting heavy on the head that I decided to have her hair trimmed. I once had a long hair measuring from top of my head down to my hips. Really long that one time a friend of mine used to call me "Mariang Makiling" for long hairlock. I know the problem that my daughter encountered that I obliged to her decision. I told her that I will keep her hair in a sealed ziploc inside her drawer with the date on it. She smiled. I love keeping souvenir of my childrens crowning glory hairlock is one of them. Their first hair cut, their first baby tooth, and their hospital wrist band tag. Then I have them attached or fastened tightly plastered or stapled (the ziploc bag with the souvenir) inside their Baby book. That's how special my children are. It's for them to remember that I keep their special moments, memories intact so that when they grow old they have something to remember and remind them of who they are. That's when photographs are not enough...

Because nowadays, it seems that you will always need to identify yourself most of the time. Know why? Too many clones. Too many "gaya-gaya." Too many impersonators and most of all too many ? That's for you to find out. I don't like being victimized by scam.

I have this in a "draft" first to find out who are following my story. Trying hard to find the extra special ability to predict with the use of ESP. According to a book that I was reading, all of us have extra sense perception or having the so called "third eye." How to use it wisely or intelligently varies with the environment and the people we associate with everyday. Most of all it only works for the believers. For the unbelievers since they cannot or unable to believe will do anything to sabotage the existence of ESP which is crucial to the study of supernatural. However, there is that one child long time ago that I was only thinking about something and that child who is only few months old can already read minds. That child is so quick with his ability to hair trigger, hair splitting understanding of clairvoyance. And that child also has that sense of sending message through many signs and symbols, facial expressions and hand gestures. Unbelievable but it's true. That's why when he was in kindergarten class he is always being reprimand by his teacher for batting in saying the correct answer before the teacher even finished with the questioning.

You know what? In the movie "Village Of The Damned" movie watch carefully why the teacher Christopher Reeves get plastered speechless when being asked by his students. He tried to stop thinking making his thoughts unknown to those gifted children so that they cannot predict what he will do next. In today's world when it comes to education the teachers in Northern part of Canada and the US will stop having a planned lesson plan. Which they tried already, the rote system is no longer of equal importance. In this case, sorry for those who will be a patient of those who didn't practice the rote system for the would be doctors and medical practitioners will keep guessing the name of organs in your body.

Try sail, square
Try tryst, trees, tryworks for T test.
What could be the Truth Value of the T test?

Be a true blue
True believer of the true penny
Be honest and have a true seal
True seal is a hair seal.

Nothing much to summarize here for the past few days we are busy doing what we love to do. Silence is golden and for the time being it's best to keep quiet until I have my laptop or notebook all to myself. However I am looking forward to have the following plants in my garden: lilac, lavender, and sunflower. For the best ornamental trees I might consider the following choices: Maple tree for its 4 season colors of green, yellow-green, orange, red, Japanese maple tree for its bough that spreads like an umbrella and has 4 seasonal change of the color of the leaves, Dogwood tree for its beautiful heart-shaped white flowers. Birch? Just for its bark in white and black colors. Oh, black and white is not really a color. So whatever. Who cares right? Sigh.

If I can't blog for the next few days it only mean I cannot or don't have the chance to use any of the computer at home. They are my teens' personal computer and I am just an "outsider" waiting to have the "opportunity" to use it when they are at school. How sad! So sad I could almost cry and puke. lol.
