Written by on September 3, 2010 – 5:37 am -How time really flies that it’s already Friday once again.lol! Not to mention that the BER months are here which reminds us all that it’s already the start of Christmas season. Ahaha! So as early as now, I need to update my Christmas wish lists and see if my long time number one and top of the list which is a laptop computer will be granted this time. Keeping my fingers crossed that I’ll be able to get one this time. The convenience of mobility is the top reason why I wanted a laptop over the PC. Let’s see in a couple of months if I’ll have it by then

A Nice Gift Idea
Written by on June 13, 2010 – 1:18 pm -My sister’s husband was asking me on what nice gift that he could give to his boss which is set to retire from his job. They will be holding a farewell party for him and up until now he was clueless on what gift he could give. The boss is around 60 years of age but still in a good health condition despite the fact he smokes. I told him that an electronic cigarette would be perfect and will be much appreciated I suppose as it will be beneficial to his health condition as he now becomes a senior citizen, this will lessen the effect as compare to the natural cigarettes that he takes. This is also beneficial to people around him since e-cig is a smokeless and won’t create any second hand effect o the people around. A people gets old, it is indeed a wise decision to lessen or become more health conscious to experience a healthy and long life.

Paintball Gun for DH
Written by on December 17, 2009 – 10:46 pm -I still haven’t bought DH his gift. I am having a hard time thinking of what to give him. He has been long asking me to buy him this Paintball gun packages that he have been eyeing for so long. Might as well give in and buy it. He really wanted to try playing the game with his friends, I over heard them planning to try it out and been setting date as to when they will go and play. This is a nice activity for DH, he hasn’t been physically active for the past months. So this activity would be a sort of physical exercise for him, Pretty good for the health right?!

is about to be delivered to kids later this afternoon. Their wishes were granted by their Tita Irma. A Disney laptop for Gabby and a robot toy for Nicco.

Everybody will be receiving their wrapped gifts. The little girl is reading this entry while I write this post, so she already knew what it is. ahahaha! Can you imagine the smile on her face? LOL.

Gifts for the Bundle of Joy
Written by on June 4, 2009 – 7:58 pm -A friend of mine will be giving birth by next month, it would be their first child and the couple is pretty excited already. Oh well, I could relate as well as everyone feels the same way during this stage right?! I am now looking into some personalized baby gifts that i found at babynest.com. I am excited too as i saw plenty of nice items that I want to buy for my kids too. Since we don’t know the baby’s gender yet, I opted to choose the one in yellow as our gift. This would bring delight to my friends’ face, for I knew that she wanted this one as it is very unique and creative, not to mention that all are indeed useful materials for the baby’s needs.

When two pawns face each other on neighbouring squares which are not separated by a fence, the player whose turn it is can jump the opponent’s pawn (and place himself behind him), thus advancing an extra square (fig.6). If there is a fence behind the said pawn, the player can place his pawn to the left or the right of the other pawn (fig.8 and 9).
