Custom Wheels

admin — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 05:27:10 +0000

Some people, like me, have dreams of owning their own cars while some dreams of branded ones but did you know some have dreams of having oe wheels? Well, I don’t really know what oe wheels are but what I know is that this is related to custom wheels. It is like having your own set of tires and rims to make your car standout from others.

I thought some people customized items are for trinkets only but now I know it that some are willing to go beyond the cost just to have something unique!

What I Don’t Like About Grocery Shopping

As much as I enjoy shopping for groceries, especially when I have more than enough to spend, there is still one thing that frustrates me and that’s when the barcodes on the items can’t be scanned properly. The cashier would have to input everything manually and when she commits a typo in entering the code, she would still have to call on a manager to void the entry. If you were to ask me, that is a very tedious process.

It’s not so much as the wrong placement of barcodes or mistake in encoding the item in the inventory database. Most often than not, the mishap is due to malfunctioning barcode scanners. I personally think that shouldn’t be the case. All equipment being used, especially at the checkout counter, must be routinely checked and examined to see whether they need to be repaired or replaced. It would surely save both the cashier and shoppers a great deal of time.

Missing the Old Times

I really like working at home. It gives me freedom and enables me to control the time spent at work. And that means I could get to spend more quality time with my kids and get to attend their special functions in school because of the flexi-time I keep. This is so unlike when I was working that well, I have to be in the office and even attend after-work meetings.

But sometimes, I do miss the old days, especially when we have special events. Because then I could wear evening formals and even gowns, high heel shoes and stocking with matching fashion jewelry. Those times were the excuse to have our hair and nails done and get professional make up services at the salon. Although these moments are temporal, they make women feel special and pretty because you get all dolled up.

Ahhh…such were the times. I mean, I can also do that from time to time, but if I don’t have a special occasion to go to, why should I spend my time and money to get all dressed up? That would be the classic case of “all dolled up and nowhere to go.” Hehe Oh well, this had been my choice.

Big Toys with Real Needs

While I was watching a special feature on our cable TV, I was caught in an interesting part of the segment. It was about big boys with their big toys. I am not talking about yachts and cars but I am talking about ATVs. I saw big boys or dads play with these little truck like looking vehicles. They loved playing with it at different terrains and road challenges.

Though ATVs are sometimes considered toys, they have real needs. They need maintenance and an occasional change of ATV Tires due to wear and tear effect. Aside from that, they also need fuel and some spare parts for better performance and upgrade. Their needs are just like the same as real cars.

Oh well, I just hope my seven year old would not start dreaming having his own ATV!!

Very sad indeed

Things are slowly going downhill. The past couple of months I’ve been having too many financial woes, ever since I transferred to the other apartment I started losing money, and it’s now giving me a hard time keeping up with the bills because of that. Despite being busy with my sidejobs, running around trying to keep things afloat, money still is my problem. The so-called father seems uninterested in my children’s plight and I have decided that if he still doesn’t respond to our emails, I will have to put the children to an orphanage, sell my stuff and try to rebuild my life over -again. I have tried my best to keep things, and it’s really hard living on your own.

One of the worst question that was asked me was “why rent in an expensive apartment?” Basically the answer to that is because I cannot afford my children learning bad habits if I continue to live in the squatter’s area. And honestly, it doesn’t work for me

I have to face this on my own, I have to stand up. I need to find something that would work for me.
