Garbage

Sagip Kapamilya is doing so well in the distribution of goods, as well as Worldvision, and others.

But we have another problem.

Think of all the plastic bags the relief goods are being distributed in. Let's hope that the volunteers tell the recipients to collect the plastic bags and re-use them, instead of throwing them everywhere.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians


This book is aimed for tweens and older. The story takes place in present day New York. Reminds me a lot of Harry Potter. The differences are: instead of being a wizard, Percy Jackson is a Demigod, which Greek God is his parent? You have to read it to find out. And instead of Hogwarts, there's Camp Half-blood. And instead of Prof. Dumbledore, there's a centaur. And instead of Hermione, there's Annabeth, the child of Athena. Well, you get the drift. I still enjoyed the story immensely. I also liked the author's humor. A lot of dry humor and sarcasm.

There are five books in this series. There is also a movie coming out next year. I can't wait!

All in all, I give this book four stars.

I suck at book reviews.

Please read this post before you think about patronizing counterfeit goods. There is a lot of suffering behind the industry. Do your part.

Tracy Raver






Take a look at these baby photos by Tracy Raver. Don't you just love them? Ang cute! She has a technique on how to make babies stay asleep. It only takes a full belly and a warm room to do wonders for making a baby sleepy. She says baby girls tend to be "feistier" than boys. Haha.

She was a guest on the Today Show. Makes you want to take lovely photos of your own children, right?

YAYA from HELL

I apologize for the graphic nature of the video. I also apologize for the poor quality. I was really disturbed when I saw this video being shared on Facebook. I have an 8 month old baby boy and he is showing signs of being a handful to look after but thank God his yaya is kind and patient. My heart goes out to the toddler in this video, I wanna go after this "woman" and pulverize her! According to youtube.com this woman is Indonesian and she's working in Malaysia. She was sentenced to 2 years imprisonment in 2007. Two measly years only??! This is CLEARLY a violation of human rights!
