It's been 4 months or so since typhoon Ondoy was here in our country. But, we are still in the process of picking up the broken pieces it has left. Like my hubby's car, it was like converted into a submarine in amidst of the typhoon. And until now, the car was still in our garage, useless...We have it undergone detailing and fixing it's engine like replacing most parts like the head gasket, filters, computer box, and etc... But we are still unlucky to bring back the condition of our most beloved car. That is why, my hubby and I is thinking of replacing our car and one of the brand that we are considering is Honda Civic. Why?

For us, Honda Civic have a luxurious look in it...It is quite expensive but it comes with very high quality. In terms of fuel consumption, it is also very economical that you can take it to long trips without slashing your pockets. It is also the brand my mother and sister in law are using in the states. Based on their experience the brand is very dependable and is safe to drive. One time, my sister in law's car brake fluid needs to be checked and she said that it was very easy to find a Los Angeles auto shop in the vicinity to have it checked. It is a car that needs little maintenance according to them.

So with that in mind, we are really considering of selling our old car and buying a new one. A newly renovated house and a new car for a new life after a disaster. Positive thinking and a lot of effort must be done in order to have a better future for us. And we all hope that like us, other victims are standing on their feet again to welcome the difficulties and blessings of a new tomorrow.

A Big Inspiration with the "Big Shoes"

Having been here in Marikina City, the Shoe Capital of the Philippines, for almost 16 years now made me witnessed it up's and down's. I am not a legitimate Marikena but my heart fell in love with the city years and years ago when I started my high school here. It has evolved into a beautiful and progressive one, thanks to the Mayor then, whom is the present Vice President candidate Bayani "BF" Fernando.

Marikina is known for it's quality made shoes. You can find shoe factory in every corner and street of the city. It has helped a lot of people to have a better living by making shoes. Even people from neighborhood cities founded their jobs here. The shoes were made from leather and were made with tender loving care of the sapateros that made it strong and durable. It was so sad to think that now, the very progressive shoe industry is deteriorating, more so, will come to an end. Thanks to the China shoes that are coming in our country.

What are these China shoes anyway? Well, they are much cheaper compared to the one's made in Marikina. They are the one's that you can find in every Tiange, Bazaars and small establishments in markets and the likes. They are usually made from plastic or rubber. And they are the one's killing the shoe industry here in the Philippines. Making thousands of sapatero's and their families jobless.

In the last Ondoy typhoon that hit the Philippines massively, one that was greatly affected is Marikina City. And one of the tourist spot that is affected is the "Big Shoes" which was declared by the Guiness Book of World Records as the "Largest Shoes in the World, last December 23, 2002." Having the Big Shoes now is a sure sign of the peoples love and loyalty of the city. They are as one in achieving their goals and dreams. And for them doing this will not only bring pride to the city but to themselves as well.

And with that, even though I am not a legitimate Marikena, still I am proud that ones in my life I have witnessed the progress of the city. And with the Big Shoes still standing and making it's mark to every people, it will serve as my inspiration in achieving whatever goals I have in mind and always thinking that whatever problems that I may encounter, I can still stand up and conquer it. Just like the Big Shoes!

THE BEAUTY JUNKEE AND LE PERFUMERIE'S VALENTINE GIVEAWAY!

I seldom wear a perfume now a days, why? It is because i am a stay at home mom and i seldom go out. When it comes to perfumes I am choosy because i easily get irritated by the smell of it and sometimes there are perfumes that feels so heavy to wear. I always choose those that are light scented like the one I am using right now, Light Blue by D&G. I got it as a present from my mother in law for my birthday last year.

This is my entry for THE BEAUTY JUNKEE AND LE PERFUMERIE'S VALENTINE GIVEAWAY!
