And now, it’s all I have under the cold weather. Mind you, I am roughly about a third of a mile home right now and I am just taking my time at Starbucks and gauging for the best time to walk back home. Las Vegas, known to be a desert, is mostly cold in a year. Science and geography explains it. And this warm vanilla latte is perfect to soothes me perfectly.

I know, I should have a book with me and its all but a perfect silent and soothing experience. My brother and I just dropped by from inquiring from a firm just a few doors away.No second thoughts, for coffee is what we need!

Mind you, benefits of coffee are way out of our imagination. It does contain caffeine but with proper knowledge of what too much is will surely guarantee you beneficial health implications as part of a healthy diet and physically active lifestyle.

1. Coffee maintains day-time alertness levels during the night or even reducing tiredness following a night without sleep. (This is very applicable to college students who have a pile of books to read or duties to attend to!)

2. Coffee helps improve driving performance at night and decreases the onset of sleepiness. (Most people here drive, one cup of coffee can save you from a possible wreck.)

3.Coffee helps restore normal alertness level when suffering from a cold. (The weather would not always be perfect. Most people get sick as weather changes from time to time. Save yourself from that sickening feeling and grant yourself a cup of aroma therapy.)

4. Coffee reduces the post-lunch dip in alertness.

5. Coffee helps maintain sustained attention over long working sessions. (Yes, the working population mostly have so much things to do and with so little time. This is practically what you need to seize through the day.)

Wow, I guess I need not say more.

Coffee is one of life’s pleasures. I’m back with my coffee-loving-self and that’s the way it is for now. Got to head home now.

Everyday we use our eyes to see the world around us. But more than that, do we see how our eyes have been enduring those late nights, computer screens, small texts, books… Frankly speaking, having glasses makes us realize what we’ve overlooked with our own two eyes. Most of us who are diagnosed with vision impairment rely on glasses to perform better. However, with the current standing of our economy today, even buying prescription eyeglasses count to be a big cut to our budget. So ask yourself, why do I need to spend more? I mean, I am a person who wears one myself, and my husband too in fact, for quite some years now. But it really took a real deal to sort out money issues for some pair of eyeglasses alone. When it wears out, gets broken, stolen, or even lost. Believe me, this post I found said exactly what I would want all of us to grasp – check it out here.

Eyeglasses can be cheap. Think of it as Zenni Optical’s way of giving out to us quality prescription eyeglasses paired with just the right amount to stay in our budget. They do, really. And at $8 you would not believe me but that’s the lowest they’ve got. The price goes higher if you want to have some lenses changed to your specifications and needs plus shipping costs. No matter where you compare prices, you’ll find yourself coming back to Zenni Optical’s.

So buy yourself one in the next days, allow yourself to smile and be happy about what you’ve got without the designer frames! In this bad economy right now, to save more means to be ready for rainy days ahead.

Vegas as it is, one of the best tourist destinations in the world. And yes, you’ll see all kinds of cars here from the Acura Integra to the Lamborghini Gallardo or the Pontiac V8. Yet, cross countries also have their

own share of fame and cars. But what really matters when you own a car is that you take good care of them. That is all there is to it. And that’s what all cars need in common. Have them checked for maintenance in Houston auto repair to assure a smooth run most especially when you are out on a trip or on business meetings elsewhere. Regular checkups, oil change and tune up won’t let you down.

So here’s my pick, if you are out looking for a car to call as your own, check out Repairpal. Wherever you are, whatever your choices are – they have it. Go sign up now and have those wheels roll!

This is so going to be a long one. How I wish we could have some entertainment while on the road like some Direct Satellite TV. All we have is the car stereo, an MP4, and a laptop. Direct TV would be the best solution while we guys are far away from home. No wonder there are more than 18 million subscribers here in the United States of America. And oh, we are gonna be leaving 1am on the 21st so this is surely going to be looked forward to! In the meantime, I’m going to ask about the availability of a Satellite Directv when we are out on the road during travel. I sure need to have some eye-opener to keep dad company!

My sister actually brought herself a book – the famous Twilight! Oh c’mon, I’d rather be watching some high quality movies online or yet the latest news for this coming holidays than be tinkering on a book!

1. Spend my birthday with him.
He was able to make sure he was at my birthday during those visits he made. He even attended some recognition days where he gets the honor of placing the medal ’round my neck! ^_^

2. Have a family vacation to Manila. This one we were able to spend a week I guess (I can’t remember much of it now..) doing the typical things a family would do in a mall.. fun.fun.fun.shop.shop.shop! and a whole lot of eating!

3. Be with my dad for the longest time – as a family forever. Here where he is.

McCarran Airport upon arrival. Last picture I took. And the only one that is allowed in this area.

I’ll finally get my dream come true though – partly! And that’s seeing dad for the first time after 6 YEARS!

So here we are all ready. We were like 6 hours ahead just some safety precautions because the weather is unstable right now – we might get stuck in traffic, or worse, stuck in flood.

Lining up to have our stuffs in.

Now waiting for our time to board the plane. Here are the tickets. We have to wait for like almost an hour here…

Our flight is scheduled to stop over at Korea. So here we are, stuck at Korea! Picture moments for keepsakes!

But before we head on, we had to take some meals at Burger King. I find it weird that the Korean currency is somewhat “scary” at first. I only had about 100 bucks in my wallet and all I see are 3,000 and more! To my surprise, I should have researched this one:

1 US Dollar = 1,170.00 South-Korean Won as of October 5, 2009

So this is the entry to the plane from the boarding section. In a few moments, we will be sitting in for 11 hours. And just about time to see my dad…can’t wait!

Here’s the interior of Korean Airlines:

Flight resumes…next stop – Las Vegas!

Yet this inevitable moment, though prolonging it would be just difficult, has to be faced. Tabby and I have not been in a good condition to talk about goodbye’s and peace talks lately. It has been emotionally hard for us no matter how we try to suppress it. We just end up having our minds blown off into sudden spurts of anger and dislike… We’ll, we were in denial. I know we both were. Denying the hurtful fact that one has to leave temporarily for an uncertain period of time to somehow live the dream of having a much better future for our family.

I would like to share to you some photos of my “last day” with Yzzy at the NAIA Airport in Manila.

Life indeed has given me some share of hurts and happiness both at the same time. I just pray now that He will provide me strength to go on this. I know He will.
