Well, what do you know? The hubby got me a new phone – HTC Desire. He gave it to me last week as a surprise, said he saved up for it. Awww sweet. After all the times I’ve been such a total biatch to him, here he is gifting me with a new phone. Read more…

I am currently thinking of reviving my sales career, and one of the things that is essential in doing so, is for me to invest in a laptop. While we do have a laptop at home, which is Read more…
I met with a friend earlier at SM Makati, and I chanced upon this product called Sodastream. It got me curious since I’ve never seen anything like it before and of course checking out the name of the product, all the more that I got curious. My husband is a softdrink person. He hardly drinks water, and yes it is bad.
We already bought a point and shoot camera more than a month ago, and we’re pretty happy with it. It is very compact and yet it comes with great features like the panoramic shot, macro settings among others, that make it quite a really good buy. Read more…

Early this year, I decided to replace our old blender that got busted after our household help tried to use it to grind ice! After much thinking and consideration, I ended up getting the Philips HR2027. I find it rather expensive, but the main selling point for me is the filter. But before I get carried away, let me give you the reasons in bullet points why I think this is a good buy. Read more…
In reference to my previous post, I mentioned that I will be making another entry specific to our experience with Prime Care Camera Repair. Last Saturday, we were hoping against hope that we could resurrect our faithful Canon S3 IS. After it was submerged in flood water (thanks to Ondoy!) for 2 days, I had the camera brought in Quiapo. If you walk Hidalgo street coming from the church, to your left, you will see a huge sign that says Canon distributor. Sorry I really forgot the name of the said store. Anyway, they checked it and said they will remove the rust and fixt the poor thing. And so after more than a month (this happened last year), I went back to get the cam. I was charged 3,500 for the repair and was given a receipt stating I have a 3 months guarantee. I tested it at the store, had a few shots and then went off. Read more…
I first saw AyosDito.Ph when I read a post from a blogger friend who was raving about the said site. Naturally, I became curious, so checked it out. It was much later on that I began to appreciate the said site, long after I got suspended from eBay (from the sheer mistake of merging my old eBay ID to that of the new – I made another one because I got married and wanted to change everything.). Anyway, the first time I was able to really utilize the site was when I had to search for furnished apartment for rent in Manila for my aunt who was then vacationing from the US. The site is very user friendly, organized and easy on the eyes. Add to that the fact that the images are loading in my office computer.
The transaction was smooth and the person who placed the ad is very accommodating. I could attribute that to chance or luck, but the rave reviews that I got to read from forums is a good benchmark to say that the site has a good following and that most sellers are decent and easy to negotiate. Although it will of course be better if they can come up with the rating system for buyers and sellers, like another site. Read more…

My mom earned a new nick name – Lola Techie. Why? Yesterday, we downloaded a couple of movie torrentz, along with that I loaded a couple of websites with videos that we wanted to watch, some videotaped webinars. Before leaving for work, my mom told me to leave the laptop open because she wanted to access her Facebook account. She said she has a couple of friends she wants to poke. Whew! Imagine that! hehe And so we obliged and left the laptop on. My mom is turning into a lola techie.
When we got home, hubby said he saw a couple of other websites. Seems like my mom is actually surfing the net. One website that she opened was www.arthritispainrelief.net, looks like you really can tell a persons age by the literature that they are reading. Amazing how people are adapting to technology. Before, my mom could hardly find her way through navigating a mobile phone, now she sees a new model of mobile phone, she speculates whether it has bluetooth, fm radio and how many megapixels the camera phone has. Lola techie ng lola techie nga! hehe
That’s how our car looks like before it got drowned in flood waters of Typhoon Ketsana. After the said incident we spent too much time and money trying to fix the car. And since we were short on cash and some other things had to be prioritized, after we had it repainted to candy tone red, it was sitting in the garage for a year. So this time around we decided to finally have it fixed. Currently, the mechanic was able to work on the compressor, the electrical, the transmission. Next set of things to be worked on would be the shifting rod. We decided to finally get her a new look as well, so we’re changing up the headlights. Since HID kits are a lot more affordable these days, it’ll be much better to get that. And since I’m such a cheapskate, my husband had to sell me the idea before I agreed to allocating budget for the said item.
Here are some features that I liked about HID headlights:
