Strange Noises
Feb 26th 2011greenbucksFamily Matters & Home & Me
I heard strange noises, like something going round and round.
I peeped through the windows to see where the sound was coming from but I don’t see anything. Unsatisfied, I went out the front door squinting in the dark since the front door light was busted.
Hmmm… nothing still.
I turned on the living room light and saw the source of the sound. The hamster my son brought home from school. He was in school for the dramatics club rehearsal and he brought home this hamster because it was left in school by a classmate. He thought it would go hungry if the little pet is left in school without food till Monday.
Awww… I know, right?
Kindness in children more often than not is something we really directly teach them. Kindness even when discussed and role played in the best schools, whether a religious school or an online university, is still a value children learned first at home.
For now, the nocturnal hamster is resting. We didn’t find any hamster food at the supermarket earlier but we gave him an apple slice to nomnom while he stays with us till Monday.

Homeless NY Father Finds Daughter Through Twitter says the headline I read in one of the first sites that announced this good news this morning. father is Mr. Danny Morales who found his daughter through Twitter in a project called Underheard in New York.
Underheard in New York is a project where homeless people are given a prepaid mobile phone to keep a record of their lives.
Mr. Morales posted a photo of his daughter Sarah Rivera in Twitter.
Certainly good news for loved ones who have not been in touched with each other for years.
I’m sure people who read their story were moved to tears. Who would have thought technology, specifically social media, would be the way for long lost loved ones to see each other again. Continue Reading »
Zombies

I don’t know what it is about Zombies that people like.
The cute game Plants versus Zombies was a big hit, both with children and adults.
Then there’s The Walking Dead which I watched though I was not able to watch all episodes.
Have you watched the trailer of Dead Island yet? It IS scary considering CGI was used for this.
Even Google Street Views have Zombies.
And yeah, Michael Jackson’s Thriller video was full of them too.
There are also countless of movies featuring Zombies.
Me? I’d rather not see a real one, I’m quite ok with the PVZ game zombies 😀
Philippines Highest Power Rates
Feb 23rd 2011greenbucksFor Information & Me & Money Watch & Philippines
Reading about the Philippines having the highest charges for electricity gives me immense headache (like I don’t already have one yet since I’m sick).
Here we are, doing ways to save on electricity among other expenses, never mind if moms like me who handle the budget have acne breakouts losing sleep on how to make ends meet.
Then we read this kind of news. It is very, very disappointing, disheartening, horrible.
Sigh.
Sick and Not Hungry
Feb 23rd 2011greenbucksHealth Matters & Me
Being sick is not good. I just had a sandwich and a mug of coffee a while ago. Last time I ate was  1pm yesterday and I still do not feel hungry (maybe because of the sandwich and mug of coffee). I hope I won’t feel hungry for several days and won’t need diet pills yet.
I can go without the hunger pangs but not when I feel ugh and dreaming of earthquakes in my restless sleep.
I wish the antihistamines work today so I can go back to bed and get some sleep.
