Caught Up With The Video Gaming Documentary

It’s another wonderful day, sunny and cold. There is nothing special to do but wasting time clicking the remote. I should read my school text which is no fun at all. I need a little chilling out here. I stumble to this channel broadcasting a documentary about video gaming, its appropriateness and effects to children who are virtually addicted to it. The documentary is not as fun as what I expected to chill, but extremely informative to parents whose children are victims of these humongous mind torturing games. Most players who were interviewed say that it is fun and cool. To the concerned parents it is disturbing and need more regulations from the government to control its exposure to children who played the games not suited to their age. There are many controversies about the ratings and parents tolerance to the game itself. Like, games suited for 18 years above should not be sold out to younger age like 17 years old, and the other side of the coin it’s the parents who bought the games. That’s great!
You might be thinking that I am hallucinating with alphabets. It could be true since I am one of the busy mothers who now trying to remind my tot about his ABC’s, he will be going to school next week. I just hope that he will remember the basics, first of everything about schooling, he is also excited. Actually, bcbsnc is dealing with health insurance, well, health per se is not a strange word, in fact, we are all concerned about it. I really hate talking about health and insurance but reality is disturbing. I’m not hook yet to any insurance matters, though considering it as safety net.
Recently, I have mentioned that I took one of the Securities Licenses exams here in Canada. To remind you, I was not happy of the exam questions since it was unexpected. I mean, all exam questions are unexpected of course, unexpected in the sense that it was way far difficult and tricky. It was taken using the bubble sheet (computer sheet) so result will be out soon as we don’t like to see it. Probably, majority of the examinees would like to know it, but me is quite the opposite. I never checked the result through our email account, I would like to see or know how my friends react with their scores first.
There you go, it’s Tuesday and class resume after the test. No doubt seeing my friends who took the exam and failed seems depressed but and challenge themselves to do the test again. I even told them that “if ever I failed the test” I would be happy to take the exam with them and we could have our group study. To those who attended the class today, asked me to check the result in the computer using our Prof’s computer. I declined and said, I’d rather cry alone and will tell you next class. Our Prof for the last time before the class ended bug me again jokingly saying “the computer is still online” may be you would like to check the result before I shut it down. Again and again, I kept my word.
I had my dinner late, clean the mess and check my computer with trembling fingers. I PASSED. Hooray!!!!
Are you particularly thinking of saving your personal information through your own drive or save it somewhere like in the online data backup? I know that my blog articles are safe and readable under my blog host powerful memory. I just hope that it will stay longer or forever keeping my precious articles. Other way to keep my articles are save it to my own drives, and better if save under any online data backup, but this is sound too big to think about. Though, it is very useful to businesses.
What Do You Want In Marriage?

Is it Love? Or may be partnership? Or it could be to have children or financial security? I do not know what you want. I sure know what I want. Just ruled out money because we both don’t have, we are one of the working class majorities who worked hard to live. Also, I could not define how marriage of different couples works as each couple have different defining struggles as marriage ripen until death do us part. The important aspects and sweeteners of other so called perfect marriage is not always applicable and sucrose to others. Mastering the word happy marriage is one way to the path of perfect marriage based on how we define prefect. I know that my marriage is not perfect at all based on the common definition as perceive like perfect marriage. But we are doing great, healthy, happy though have less money. So, can you define you’re own perfect family?
Well, speaking of lightning who doesn’t like it? Though we have enough lightning in any small corridor in this Condo yet I still need a stand lamp shade. One of the Murray Feiss Lighting are good choice, it comes in arrays of designs and style suited to everyone’s taste. I like their lightning collections. Unfortunately, they are mostly fitted or mount on the wall or ceiling. I could not fix lightning permanently in the Condo, we are just renting here. That is why I like the stand lamp shade because we could carry and move it anywhere without causing bruise to walls and ceilings.
My tot will be in school soon and wearing diaper is not quite manageable without the mommy. He was potty trained at two and diaper is for night weewee and traveling even just a downtown walk. Our recent vacation to the U.S.A brought the magic of no more diapering to 3-year old tot. Then, we arrived home and no diaper stock. We could buy at nearby supermarket but I’ve decided to let diaper go to other butt than to my tot’s. My only problem is at night time. What will you do to change the night weewee routine of free disturbance? Nothing at all! Except sacrifice.
On night time, alarm is set every 2 hours and half for weewee time. I have to drag my tot to the toilet to pee. So far, we have survived the last 2 weeks, I know it’s quite long for me to wait for him to go to the toilet by himself if feel peeing in the middle of the night. The thing is, my kid never walks his way to the toilet alone, so he end up wetting the bed. Another thing is, he tend to sleep than doing the peepee. So why not work together, mom and tot all the way to the toilet.
Inventory is the word in the market I want to hear. It means they are cheaper than the normal price. A good buys probably. Good timing since school will start soon and definitely high school to university students need a little savings in their pockets after shopping. inventory software is not what I want right now, I need an inventory programs on sale. I have been waiting for this particular program for a discount price. I am not in a hurry yet because I only use my computer at home and for personal purpose.
They did it again! Yesterday was a marvelous sunny day in the Harborfront Center with heaps of Asian taste, from music to marketplace. We all had fun, so as the tourists. At lunch time we bought our meals from the food stalls and settled in a shed at the back of the billboard facing at the parking area. Where?!! The human methane explodes like a car tire stopped to a screech. It was a loooonnnnggg faarrtt. Let me remind you that were having lunch, my son was asking what was that sound? I said, it's an old man’s thing. It was extremely disgusting. They were bunch of Ni Hao Tourists.
Nothing knocked on my head but the same incident when I was at the Wal-Mart browsing for Calvin Klein scents, and broooooooottt!!! The kaboom of stomach explosion, shit! He just farted. In fact he is also one of the Ni Hao clan. I have lived and stayed to 4 countries in Asia. I also lived in a dormitory or worked in place where Ni Hao is spoken. So I know who they are.
Who is not talking about health insurance, everybody I bet! I have mentioned lately, that though we have free health coverage in the country, we still have to pay for the prescription if you do not have any health insurance benefits from work. I am not working, that means I am not covered for free prescription payment. Yes! My hubby is working. Unfortunately they don’t have that health benefit either. I am sure by now in this country that my family is already listed to one of the health insurance leads. We could still not afford the premium of getting a health insurance that pays for the specific coverage, like the major operations and prescriptions. For now, God is our only insurance that we are not going to fall ill beyond the government free coverage.
When money is the issue of being stuck at home, it is better to go back to my parents house, live there and ask for small amount of money to enjoy a stick of popsicle. Since, I left home and started working, I live on my own and spend hard earned money wisely. Now, I’m married, choose a country that me and the hubby could live together in return of giving up a precious good paying career. I am not working yet because of so many reasons of why I could not get a job. I wish I could back-out to this present dream. There is no money in my wallet but for groceries, nothing for one-piece of KFC chicken or a cup of coffee. I could buy them provided that I should buy the bargain foods. Shocking it is!!! We are now living in to one of the most expensive Cities in the world. That is, the likelihood of saving money from the discounted foods that we usually shop weekly is poor. I hate it! I have no money of my own and I’m bloody taking care of this household. Real bum.
We just came back from our US vacation. A visit to my sister in Alabama was great! We drove to the Panama City for a salty and sand dip, and wandering to one of the beautiful sand dunes in the City. Panama City is about 45 minutes drive from home so going there regularly is no pain in the butt. condo rentals in panama city fl are in arrays of range from budget to affordable extreme comfort like home, but since we are staying at my sister’s in-laws rest house by the lake. We let the comfort of these condos to other tourists, since it is summer. The beach hungry individuals will likely need them than us.
So, what’s the issue of blogging everyday when you have nothing to say because you’re jammed at home? I am amazed to read random blogs that always ‘have a say” of they’re everyday life. I don’t really say many things about what happen at home especially if it is too personal. I could not dare and endure the explosion of homebound stories, I don’t have the guts. Besides, what would I say or write when I only move in these four corners of the Condo. Well, I have many stories about my tot and hubby daily silly irregular antics. So bear with me.
It’s been awhile since we moved to this Condo. We don’t have those extra basic appliances or furniture’s. In fact, we only have TV, sofa bed that often serves as our one an only sofa in the living area and our bed, and well, pieces of table and stalls. I don’t really care to have more other than the stuff we own right now, because I don’t have any plan to stay here longer. That would help me reduce the cost of moving to our dream home. What I dream for now is adding the lightning fixtures. Luckily, school is opening soon and sale for school supplies that includes computer, book shelves and lightning are on great buys. discount lighting is what I need to give light on my living area which at the moment are not fully lighted at all.

For days now, I am stuck inside our Condo with my tot. My son is really bored he even asked his Dad “to buy a new Mommy” because I am glued to my course textbook and no time playing with him. I stopped reading and laugh out loud with his request.
Mommy: I asked him, what kind of Mommy you would like to buy.Tot said: I like the green color Mommy because YOU are white.
Mommy: That’s all?
Tot said: and….a brother
Mommy: That’s great! You’re asking for a miracle.
Me and hubby laugh in unison, and the tot shout!!! Don’t laugh…. it’s bad. He is just three, what would you expect? Sooner, we will be serious because he will be sensible.
Laughter for now and later…Hair pulling.
My vacation in the sun, sand and jolly America give me the flaws that most people heated, the pimples! Though, it’s not much to worry right now but I could not bear to see the print of acne, I guess. I have a fair skin and big red pimples will definitely leave brown disgusting marks. I have an acne treatment. I hope it will whisk its magic to at least reduce the redness of my face. This is my prize of having a holiday without my hubby. Right now my face is itching, gee; this could mean it’s not my best acne treatments in the medicine cabinet. I doubt I will end up putting moisturizer on my face. Poor me.
My escape to the USA for 10 days seems too soon to end. I actually have more days to spend unfortunately, I have to go back to prepare for my course test. Ten days was worth million memories and our next plan is to go home visit our parents. Now, it’s another time to dream of winning a lottery so that we could visit sooner and no sweat of saving bucks-and-bucks. I could never be satisfied of visiting the USA alone but also to see my parents. For now, I have to focus myself of studying for my test, pass the exam and get a job if lottery is greasy enough to land on my hand.
It’s been 8 years since I last seen my sister, and few days ago we are in each other side, chatting about the lost years of not spending time together with our families. I could not imagine my sister have grown to a healthy woman in a bad side of the scale. I’m used to be the chubby one in the family and now, the slimmy figure turn to my side. I have seen my weight far leaner than my sister who has grown sideways. It’s not that bad actually, but I was surprised of the difference. I hope she will start her dieting regimen and I hope she would keep the challenge of winning her old figure. Now, I know that whatever the best weight loss pills are for me and the others. It might not good for everybody that is why I stop bragging my sister about my fit regimen. She knows how to handle her weight and she knows what is better. It was challenging enough to see me sitting at the back of the car together with my son and nephews. How did I fit there?
