WFW: Heart Check


 Lately, I realized that I am too preoccupied with so many things and accomplish only a few. I have been too busy at the office that I was not able to finish checking the exam papers of my students, haven't started computing their grades and it is due for next week. At the end of the day I realized, it has been a long day and yet I was not able to meet my goal. Why am I working too hard? Why do I stressed myself? Indeed, I need to realign my priorities... I need to check my heart.

Scenic Sunday: Ang Tugas

Scenic Sunday
It's my first time to join this meme and I am proud to feature this Scenic Sunday my most favorite place. One may thought that there is nothing unusual about this scene. Well maybe yes since only those nearby residents have known its location.  I have been to overlooking places before but this particular place holds a special place in my heart... What's so unique about this tree was its location. it is situated separately from others.  The first time that I have been here the sun is about to set. Mind you, sunset is so cool to behold at this kind of place. I was not able to stay that long since it's difficult to go down when it's dark. It was on this place that a covenant was made between us and God. Sad to say, there are rumors that the place will be converted into a commercial place soon, hope against hope may it just remain as a rumor.  I wish I could go back there soon.

Is Your Volkswagen Cool?



Way back in college, I am already fascinated with the Volkswagen Beetle and how it looks. I just find it so cute and feminine, though most users/owners are men. I cannot even believe its superb performance which really last for long. A good friend of mine own one in faded yellow color. The first time I get a ride with it was really unforgettable. As I was expecting for a cooler ambiance inside, I was a bit surprised when all I can feel is the heat. My friend then told me that the Air-conditioning System was busted. I really do not know about engine parts then so I just shrugged.




 It is only now that I learned that the Air-conditioning (AC) parts for any vehicle model like Volkswagen are replaceable.Volkswagen AC compressor , as they called it is available online at www.discountacparts.com for a very reasonable price. They offered full line of Volkswagen AC parts. Even for the old models like the 1995 Volkswagen Beetle, its AC parts can still be ordered with free shipping. Its quality is fully tested and guaranteed to be of best quality. They even offer a full warranty. It is very easy to shop with them and ask for order and support through their toll free phone number.


 Maybe I need to share this to my friend who owned the Beetle so my favorite Volkswagen model will be back to the high way once again.



                       1995 Model (the same model to that friend of mine) I really find it cute.

I Desperately Need Your Help Please

I have mentioned once on one of my post about my blogging dilemma,

getting more opportunities which is seems too difficult and rare if you do not have your own domain. With that, one of my goals for this week is to have one. I planned to have it with the assistance of the Blogger.com website (my host). According to Mamang Grace, it’s easy to purchase your own domain with them. They will really facilitate you during the transition period of your new domain from blogspot to dot com. For an annual fee of $10 only you can have it through your EON account. Since I already have my Union EON account, I am all the more motivated to have it. Last week, I have an outstanding Paypal balance of $17 (good enough for the required payment) so I have transferred $15 to my Bank account last Saturday.

My $15 was converted into P 669.00 with P 50.00 fee (service fee, I guess). Then Paypal sent me this email:



2-4 days transactions seems an eternity for me but I patiently wait until I received this emil notification from them just this morning which really turned my day gloomy:




All I know is that I succesfully added my bank account to my Paypal as what they have emailed me:





I was really shocked and I do not know what to do next. And when they returned my money to my Paypal account, they charged me with P 250.00:



I cannot really believe it. I am new to this kind of transaction but what I do not understand was that my difficult to hard-earned few dollars was consumed. I do not know if I have the right to ask either my bank or Paypal.


Along with that lost hard-earned dollar is my goal.


Can somebody help me with this?

Safety First



Vehicular accidents often happen. We heard it on the news, and there's even some which we have actually seen from our naked eyes. It is a horrible scene that even I cannot imagine. I am into a vehicular accident once. It was really so scary. I am with my friends that time. We came from leadership training. While we are on our way, the wheel suddenly wiggle that brought us to the opposite lane and then it turn half-side down to the ground. The van was really damaged. The front mirror of the passenger van broke into pieces. The side windows crack and the right front wheel was removed. By God’s grace none of us died though most of us were quite injured.

When we were brought to the hospital, the car was left to the site. It has to be towed back to the city. Good thing it was insured, the expenses for the repair was really expensive if without an insurance. There are so many auto insurance now like HVG insurance which offers excellent deals. It is even easier to the part of the owner if the insurance company offers a 24-hour hassle free claim transactions. There are some who requires a lot which delayed the transaction and left you and your car waiting for long.

Some may not get their vehicle insured thinking that it will just entail a lot of cost. Partly true, but one must consider that this is for their own benefit. Besides, it is not really a problem considering that there are insurance companies which offers discounted prices for comprehensive insurance. Don’t take the risk, life is so precious. Safety first.

When Love and Hate Collide at Haiti...

Barely one week ago, a destructive 7.0 magnitude earthquake shaken the world of Haiti turning the buildings into rubbles and killing a lot of people including Filipinos... That wrath has never ended yet because once again they were traumatically shaken  with a lesser magnitude of 6.1 causing the people to run to the streets fearing of being trapped again inside a building...


Not a good start for the year2010 for them. Haiti is believe to be the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere... Helpless Haitians were seeking for help. They have not yet recovered from the aftershock of the previous incidents and now the latest roar reminded them again.. Who can survive such a situation as this... Everything happens for a reason but sometimes that reason is beyond our comprehension.

Let's pray for them... God bless.
