Goodluck Fayeed!

It is also said that the minimum time you should spend brushing your teeth is 2 minutes twice a day (1 minute for the upper teeth and another minute for the lower teeth). For grown-ups this is just easy but for little kids, like mine, a 4-year old – rushing is one of their talents in toothbrushing.

Last May 2009, Zaza received a singing toothbrush from church. The song played for 2 minutes and a kid who is musically inclined would continue brushing their teeth in the tune/beat of the song, which I thought was a good idea – to have this kind of toothbrush for all the kids. Here’s a video of Zaza using the toothbrush:

Since toothbrushes should be changed every 3 months. I already ditched Zaza’s old singing one. Just in time the song stopped playing already – because the batteries ran out and I don’t see any way to replace them. I have been going around looking for a replacement but couldn’t find any here in Cagayan de Oro. Then I found FIREFLY TOOTHBRUSH by DR. FRESH in one of the CDOBloggers‘ member’s blog. FIREFLY TOOTHBRUSH by DR. FRESH almost covers a similar concept with the old toothbrush we got but using a flashing light instead of a song – more like a firefly – thus its name. Toothbrush/toothpaste companies having this toothbrush feature would really help encourage kids to brush their teeth by using the flashing light – it’s easier to instruct the kids to wait for the firefly light to stop before they stop brushing their teeth than that of explaining to them why it should take them a little bit longer. FIREFLY TOOTHBRUSH by DR. FRESH is now available Exclusively at Watsons and Beauty by SM Department Stores.

If you follow me on plurk, you would have noticed a couple of my plurks a few months back about someone who betrayed me, ruined my trust, and some friendships in the process.  Actually marami sila sa lista ko and yes he/she must be in your timelines too. If you wanna know, I can make chika so you would hate them too – kidding. Ano sila celebrity? Pinaguusapan? haller.. I trust too quickly kasi. Anyways..if you read mareng Orman’s post, about it – here – item #1 I did already – I had to comment nga na item #1 palang tawa na ako agad. Nakarelate! Ang #2, hindi ko naman ginawa pero sinadya lng talaga ng tadhana dahil nanakaw ang phone ko. LMAO. So yeah, favorite ko ang blog post na ito dahil nakarelate ako at natawa dahil tama naman talaga – as always – si mareng Orman. Mga ahas pinapatay at ginigisa, LOL!  Ang favorite ko sa lahat ng inenumerate ni mareng Orman ay ang item #6! Hahaha. Like I said sa isang plurk ko, ang mga tinatamaan, GUILTY! And naman… tama na naman ulit si mare dahil ginagawa nila ang #6! To all traitors: you are hopeless cases. Continue what you’re doing and soon when you die, you’ll be alone in your death beds. Pakshet!

Eto ang entry ko para sa week #5 Blogversary contest ni Mareng Orman. Happy Blogversary in 21 days! Sana pasok ito. LOL.

I saved up for all of those stuffs and gaining them back would, I think, cost me another year. I have been a subscriber of Jehzlau Concepts for about almost 3 years now and I have been reading thru the blog’s updates from time to time. I came across the site while searching for Dora the Explorer Games and I found 2 great links for download – thanks so much for that.

Now, I came across this post about the Samsung i5700 Galaxy Spica - android phone giveaway and would really like to win it, in replacement for my stolen phones and since it has a 3.15 MP, 2048×1536 pixels, autofocus camera, it would also be a temporary replacement for my stolen cam. I hope I win it so I can document again the life of my son and what’s about going on in my everyday life. Here’s a link to where I documented and kept photos of my son since day one.

It was around year 2009 that I started using plurk again. I got registered around 2008 but didn’t really use it much. 2009 was the year I joined CDOBloggers.com and I also found new friends from CDO, Gensan, and Davao thru Plurk. In my timeline I came across ter Orman’s blog GandaEverSoMuch. First time I saw it I was like, wow, cool theme, the hands follow thru while scrolling down. Hehehe.

It was just after the MBS3 that I really got to follow and read thru the blog posts written in it as I really find them interesting and fun to read. The way of writing are mostly in a very natural and taray way which I really love. It’s not some of those too detailed and too boring way of writing articles, again I would have to say, it’s fun to read! I think the first blog post I read was about Kuya Avel’s journey to the top in blogging. I think It had a song pa. Or maybe it was Orman’s blog post about his moment with yummy Atty. Adel at MBS3?  Either way, I read thru both of those articles some time ago.

I keep coming back to GandaEverSoMuch.com because I see things ang real. Mostly Orman’s personal happenings, may it be sad or happy. Some blogs relate to General Santos where Orman lives. I also get to know Orman’s life even sa malayo. There are things I can relate to, sometimes realizations, I remember I read thru one of Orman’s post about loving the job, and how to and not impress the boss. Overworking and stressing yourself isn’t really the answer. If you guys are interested to know more, may steps sya dun. I think it was a blog late December 2009 or January 2010.

All I can say is, if you still don’t read GandaEverSoMuch, hindi ka sikat! Joke. Follow nyo blog nya or better yet, Click this link to subscribe para dretso na sa email nyo at updated na updated na kayo.

More power sayo GandaEverSoMuch Orman!  Happy Blogversary in 35days!

In 46days, GandaEverSoMuch will be celebrating it’s 1st blogversary and will be giving away lotsa prizes!

In the blog, it states that – This is not just for bloggers contest. So everyone can join, click <–that link to know how!

Sali Na!

While I was browsing through my plurk timeline, I came across a friend’s blog link which featured a silver jewelry giveaway – Alexa’s Angels Hugs and Kisses Necklace and I am totally awed by it and their aim for their jewelries.

Alexa’s Angel’s  is an inspirational jewelry company that is dedicated to inspiring people through their creatively crafted product line. They’re dedicated to creating, finding and supporting programs that benefit women. This company’s mission is to be a great example of how a socially responsible company can make a difference.

Aside from me wanting to wear the necklace, for the simple fact that it’s silver and i just love the design, I also would like to help advertise their company’s goal thru their products.

Hope I win it!

Watch the Video of Annabelle Rama that talks about Ruffa Gutierrez’s walkout incident at Showbiz Central.

All done? So what can you say? Ruffa has just said to not rub in the issue and Kris just had to add more something after she sees Ruffa’s reaction, so what’s it called then? My thought? Jokes are half meant. Period.

Last 8/2/2009 a package arrived at home. I had to wonder then who sent the package when I haven’t even bought anything online yet, and I only use 2Go to ship to my buyers from my online shop. So I opened it and received a note with the stuffs inside. It was 2 free traveling kits/bag from 2GO for being one of the first 50 who registered in their new website feature. Thank you 2GO.

First 2 Summits were held at Davao and General Santos City. This time, it’s going to be in our very own City of Golden Friendship – Cagayan de Oro. With the theme “Mindanao Bag-ohon sa Panan-aw” or “Changing the way people see Mindanao”, this big event aims to give better understanding about Mindanao tourism, the people, our culture and ofcourse, promoting Cagayan de Oro and what the must-see’s and must-try’s are here (e.g. White Water Rafting, Caving, Trekking at the Man-Made Forest, etc.).

This event will surely give us all a chance to meet fellow bloggers from across the Philippines, expand our online networks, and of course build friendships!

If you’re interested to join this great blogging event, visit the PRE-REGISTRATION FORM page of the Official MBS 3 Website.

The first stop of the day was at PJoe’s Diner at Rosario Arcade, Limketkai Mall where the MOA signing between Senator Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan, RV Team, and COMELEC took place at 10:30 AM. I didn’t get to witness this event cause I was still dead asleep on my bed, but 3 of our fellow CDOBloggers officers were able to make it there – pinks0da, Dingexx, and Magman who were so star stricken to see and sit with Senator Kiko Pangilinan himself who was way taller and much more handsome than showed on TV. They were so stunned that they didn’t even notice nor were they enticed of the food served right in front of them.

Next stop was at Pryce Plaza Hotel for a meeting/press conference/forum with Sen. Kiko and the Department of Agrarian Reform-X (DAR). It was also participated by different non-government organizations (NGOs) from Bukidnon, Misamis Oriental and other provinces of Region 10. This is where I and some more of the CDOBloggers came in – Mike Abonitalla, Venus, Bang, BBJane, May Ann, and Magnus. This is also where we got our official Media pass. We then had a very quick lunch – most of us didn’t get to finish our lunch because our food came in late and we were so excited when Ms. Irene said it was time for our picture taking with the Senator. We then rushed out the hallway before the Senator came out and prepped ourselves there. As Sen. Kiko was approaching us, Ms. Irene and Ms. Julie then pointed at us and introduced us as the bloggers of Cagayan de Oro and we smiled with pride while Sen. Kiko himself shook hands with my fellow bloggers. We then had a group photo, taken by Bon Aserios, with the Senator.

Before leaving Pryce Plaza, we were given the chance to take photos of the RV Bus and also got the chance to ride on the bus as the team headed to MUST (Mindanao University of Science and Technology) for an afternoon forum with the students. We were welcomed by the MUST tribal dancers as the bus was entering the vicinity. As the Senator was about the speak, the heavy rain came pouring down, but it never stopped the students to listen and show interest on Sen. Kiko’s advocacy speech, encouraging the students to be part of the 9 million expected first time voters this coming 2010. I, for one, will be part of it. Yep, it’ll be my first time then – don’t ask why. LOL.

We, Magman and I, were then toured by Pinks0da and Dingexx around their alma mater. After the quick tour, the RV Team headed for COC (Cagayan de Oro College) for another talk. We didn’t go with them this time cause we wanted to rest and gather up strength for the concert. We took a quick snack at KFC Limketkai and headed to Pinks0da’s place for a quick rest.

6:00 PM came; we rush down to Xavier University Gym, since it was time for the Rock the Vote Concert featuring HALE, SPONGECOLA, LUKE MEJARES and other surprise guests. As the Cagayan de Oro local bands played, Ms. Irene asked us to go in front and squat at the front row portion of the floor so others would follow. As we were sitting there, we could feel everyone staring at us wondering what we were doing. The emcee’s then announced the dance floor was for everyone, people from the balcony went rushing down to sit with us and we all enjoyed the CDO local rock bands: Upstart, Tabularaza, Twin Chicken, and K9 among others. Tj Ortiz and Sandy David also shook the crowd with their acoustic music where the audiences sang their hearts out – each of the artists also was inviting and encouraging everyone in the gym to register and vote on the upcoming election, to make a difference, to not just complain about the current leaders – but to find a way to change by registering and voting for a better leader.

We then paused to welcome the special guests – the RV Movers Senator Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan, Congresswoman Risa Hontiveros, Atty. Alex Lacson, and Congressman Teddy Casiño and Xavier University’s very own Fr. Jet Villarin.

Fr. Jet led the prayer for former President Cory Aquino’s health before the Unity Statement took place. We were given glow sticks before they arrived and we weren’t informed we were going to use it for that portion, so instead of using the glow sticks, we used our cellphones to light up the gym as sign of Unity of the Filipino people in the call for REAL CHANGE. That we deserve better. Our families deserves better.

After each of the RV Movers came up to talk and encouraged everyone to register and vote. The rocking of the gym continued – this time Luke Mejares, Spongecola, and Hale did the job. We would like to thank Ms. Irene Aserios for giving CDOBloggers the opportunity to join this event with special privileges, if it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have seen/touched/photographed these very special icons of the country up-close and personal. Thru this event, I will get registered – together with my fellow unregistered cdobloggers, who lost hope in our election system and the government – this is for our future and our families’ future. Let’s all register and vote this coming 2010!

The “pulis” who didn’t allow us to come back up on stage, even if we were there the whole time way before they stood their post there. To think Hale was the last band to play that night. We were a bit annoyed and pissed for this, we were able to cover almost all the event’s happenings except Hale’s because of them. Anyway, we got some pics from afar and we decided to leave cause of dismay but we did enjoy the event.

30 days after I filed a complaint with Ebay, they contacted me for investigation and I filed for their eBay Standard Purchase Protection Programme – after their investigation and proven that the transaction is really a scam a buyer that has been scammed may be reimbursed for eligible transactions only like:

- An item was not received.
- An item was received but significantly not as described.

Buyer will be reimbursed up to a maximum of P 11,200.00 (less P 1,400.00 to cover processing costs).

For example:
If the item price is PHP 12,000, you’re eligible to receive PHP 9,800.
If the item price is PHP 5000, you’re eligible to receive PHP 3,600.
If the item price is PHP 1500.00, you’re eligible to receive PHP 100.

The maximum reimbursement for any claim is P 9,800.

There are certain qualifications also for claims they can be found HERE.

Good thing I kept all the proof of the transaction up until now that helped me thru their investigation. They called me today around 5pm – about 2months after the incident. I know it’s a long time and not the full amount will be paid, but atleast I get to be reimbursed for it, compared to not getting anything at all. Their reimbursement will arrive in 45days.

Thank God for this. And I still pray there’s a way to get these scammers.

There are six floors and the attributes of the men increase as the shopper ascends the flights. There is, however, a catch . . .. you may choose any man from a particular floor, or you may choose to go up a floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building! So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband . . On the first floor the sign on the door reads:

Floor 1 -
These men have jobs and love the Lord.

The second floor sign reads:

Floor 2 -
These men have jobs, love the Lord, and love kids.

The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 -
These men have jobs, love the Lord, love k! ids, and are extremely good looking.

“Wow,” she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the fourth floor and sign reads:

Floor 4 – These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, are drop- dead good looking and help with the housework. “Oh, mercy me!” she exclaims, “I can hardly stand it!” Still, she goes
to the fifth floor and sign reads:

Floor 5 – These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, are drop- dead gorgeous, help with the housework, and have a strong romantic streak. She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor and the sign reads:

Floor 6 -
You are visitor 4,363,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store. Watch your step as you exit the building, and have a nice day!

Please send this to all men for a good laugh and to all the women who can handle the truth!
