Memories in College life

Have you tried having problems about your lesson during college years? College years are more difficult than high school. A lifetime career needs a wise decision. Now that I am working, I really miss my life during college days. I miss my life when I get pressured studying for exams or doing some projects, assignments and research.

My life at College was not that very satisfactory. If I may be able to go back those old college days, I will make sure to balance everything to make it more enjoyable, pleasant and finer. But there are some events in my life during college that I wish things have done better. One of it was my algebra subject. I really hate numbers especially doing some problem solving.

Math questions and finding prime numbers are the most problem to my part. Those are one that gives me so many headaches that results my laziness in studies. There are things in college that I truly miss a lot, my classmates, friends and best friends. Having great times with friends and even being there with you during hardships left us great memories.

One of my best friends in College was a Mathematician and so he extended his knowledge to us. I took up Biology to get rid Mathematics on my subjects, so I was a bit lucky that I don’t need his Chemistry help and Physics help, unlike with some of my friends did. My college life is not that good enough. I bet it would be better if I have been in a good school during my high school years. Good foundation of school is really important in learning.

Home-made Durian Ice Cream

In some part of the country, the season for Durian fruit has finally started especially Davao City. Anywhere in our town, Durian fruit is being sold at a very cheap price because of its abundance.

A Collector of Valuable Things

Do you have something favorite in which you are fond of collecting with?
This is one of my obsessions now but I make sure not to spend much on it. Since I was 8 years old, I started collecting small antiques, hats, shoes, bags and lately I am collecting gold spot coins. My interest of collecting coins started when my grandmother handed me her antique price of gold coin. I never expect that my grandmother was also a collector of something that I also collected.

When my grandmother handed me her collections, I really appreciate on how she had managed on preserving and keeping those little valuables even though she was too old. She chooses me to have her spot gold coins because she has seen me how I treasured and valued my collections. I am the youngest and grandmother’s girl among the siblings.

My other older sister is also a collector of things made up of gold. When she buys something, she will make sure that everything is made up of gold. Her bags, shoes, belts, hair pins and other accessories must have at least spot of gold o it. When my sister celebrates her 18th birthday, grandmother gave her some of her gold collections of accessories. Since then she never stop collecting things which are made up of gold. Thanks to our grandmother for entrusting us her valuable collections.

Global Financial Crisis

The business world is now starting to recover from financial crisis which all over the world has been struggling with for the past year. People learn to budget its finances in order to survive the crisis. In some ways, people would prefer to have the least expensive in some things they would buy.

Some of our family friends were forced to sell their properties in order to survive financially. It was never been a good year to business world but even though this was actually visible everyone, still people find ways to get this through. Students also have been affected by the crisis because of their parents’ financial instability status and even some have been laid off from work. This is one thing that our government should give their full attention with to come up with a better solution the soonest as possible.

Everyone really took the situation seriously and never tried to waste any of their money. Even some of the medical practitioners were also been affected by this crisis. My friend in L.A., who works as the head nurse, chooses to buy the cheap nursing scrubs and cheap scrub uniform to have lesser expenses. Even some nurses know how to maintain their financial expenses by buying the cheap scrubs uniforms, cheap medical scrubs and cheap dental uniforms.

20 Grand Slams Before Retires

Roger Federer aims to win 20 grand slam titles before retiring. Age, body, and practice are some of the reason why he aims to win grand slam titles. What do you think? Does he can get what he is aiming for?

Nowadays, many young tennis players arise and the level of competition is getting higher. The more it becomes competitive and challenging to their part. But to the most well rounded player like Roger Federer, everything is possible. I never had seen such a player like Roger Federer who can stroke a good back hand top spin and fore hand top spin. I believe he can make it because he is my favorite.

This are the pictures of my brother and his best friend while playing tennis.

An Early Plan for Family Trip

I could never imagine how my cousin handles herself as she been so busy working but good to hear that she is planning to take her long vacation trip with family this year. It is summer once again and as flight attendant, she never had the chance to take a vacation during this peak season. She will take her one month vacation by November and this time she planned to have it in a new place with family at the beach. As early as now, she is searching for a nice and unique destination for the trip. Sometimes during her long day off she usually traveled to Hawaii or California to visit her friends and relatives.

She deserves a good and nice long break. Last week, she told me that she finally found the right place for their planned vacation. As she was browsing through the net, she gets to bump into http://www.seasidemb.com website. Upon having a thorough search on the website, she found something that she appreciated well; it was about the Myrtle Beach Accommodations that seemed interesting to her.

My cousin is fond of going out to shop or go to beaches with family during her short day off. This is one reason why she wanted to go out and try another beach resort in other places. The soonest possible, she wanted to get her Myrtle Beach hotel reservations or else her hubby might change the plan and divert it into other destination.

Family Day

It is sunday once again and the usual thing I do is to cook something special for my family for our lunch. From church,we usually go out and have some Malling or anywhere we wanted to go as long as we all out together for a day of bonding.
