Alicia Silverstone have posted a video of her and her baby named "Bear Blu" (which is not usually a kind of name for a boy) on how she fed her son just like what bird does to her babies. The actress will chew the food on her mouth and will transfer to the mouth of her son. Some netizens found it gross and some shows their admiration to her on how she do the parenting on hand. But in my opinion she should also considered the consequence of transferring germs to her baby.


Saves on Used Textbooks

textbook, save on tuition

Okay so school has finally ended but will definitely have a next level on it. During the vacation from school, we are trying our best to save up for tuition fees and for books. And the easiest way to save from books is buying textbook used by those student who have recently completed their semestral or just sell textbooks that your student have completed and used that money to buy again a textbooks or second handed textbook to buy it in a more cheaper price. In this times of ours, one must be practical in order to sustain the education of our children, the most important is we can still gain a knowledge out of a secondhand book. Happy vacation everyone!

My wall of FB and twitter have been flooded with this "noynoying" thing. Noynoying that derived from planking and the nickname Noynoy of President Benigno Aquino III is a new form of protest as a sign of no action to our government despite the huge overprice of gas. But unlike "planking" which facing down and leveled with the ground "noynoying" was simply doing nothing like lying around, yawning, sitting idle, grin and looking boring. Activist makes sure that they will spread this form of protest to all social network in hopes that PNoy will do something about our main problem in the country. Too bad that Malacañan Palace just shrugs their thoughts about it.

Pi Day: 3.14 A Happy Pi Day

Pi Day, 3.14, Albert Einstein

Happy Pi Day! Because this day: March 14 is Albert Einstein's birthday too. What a coincidence right? Where Pi (  ) is approximately equal to 3.14 or 3.141592653. 

According to Wikipedia, Pi Day is a holiday commemorating the mathematical constant π (pi). Pi Day is celebrated on March 14 (or 3/14 in month/day date format), since 3, 1 and 4 are the three most significant digits of π in the decimal form. In 2009, the United States House of Representatives supported the designation of Pi Day.


It was Larry Shaw that started Pi Day back in 1988 a Physicist that works in San Francisco Exploratorium, where they actually marched on a circle spaces and consumed fruit pies. From then on they continue celebrating it until in 2009 the US House of Representative recognized March 14 as National Pi Day. And baking and eating a pie was part of celebrating it.

A good holiday to teach also Math to our young, so Happy Pi Day!

Daylight Saving Time Saves Energy?

Right now I am having a hard time with our electric bill, where I am the one that pays for it. My business were not good and my hubby's remittance are quite delayed. And so I'm searching some ways on net how I can save more on electricity because the bill were a bit blown last month. My searches lead me to "Daylight Savings Time" in the US. According to their history they have change "Daylight Saving Time" DST in hope to save more in the use of electricity, where studies shows that most home owners in the US used more electricity when they go to bed and when they get up out of the bed. Some of the appliance they have used are lights for lightning outside their homes, lights inside their home, TV, Stereo, VCR, personal computer, air-con or fan.

Daylight Saving Time in America began in 2 a.m. on the second Sunday of March and lasts until 2 a.m. on the first Sunday of November. Studies proves that they have trim a one percent of their electric consumption each day with Daylight Saving Time DST. Now I wonder if we can applied and implement it too on our country by getting up early and leaving our home off to work, with the idea of less consumption of our electricity. Since we Filipino uses more electricity  when we are at home especially when times of getting ready for bed, most of us uses fan or air-con while sleeping probably more during summer where our bills increases too.

Kony, world's worst criminal


KONY 2012 is a film and campaign by Invisible Children that aims to make Joseph Kony famous, not to celebrate him, but to raise support for his arrest and set a precedent for international justice.

Kony, world's worst criminal
Joseph Rao Kony
But first who is Kony? Joseph Rao Kony was born on 1961 in Odek, Uganda, he is Ugandan guerrilla  group leader, head of the "Lord's Resistance Army" (LRA) their group have abducted and forced children to fight for them.

Kony is the worst criminal ever lived on Earth he was a horrible nightmare of every people in Uganda.

Why I Love Being a Mom and Blogger

“This is an official entry to Dainty Mom’s Bloggy Goodies Contest, in celebration of the Dainty Mom blog’s 2nd anniversary.”
blog contest
All woman whether we like it or not will become a mother in the future. I thought before that some mom are just really great and talented to take good care of their family, to become an all around servant for her family. Not until I became a mom too, it's a responsibility that summoned in me to do the things that I used to see on other mom. Little did I know I became more protective, more alert and more budget conscious on this field of motherhood. So this is not really inheritable but it is really a responsibility to take charge of everything.

But blogging at the same time became more challenging to me, imagine me taking care of all the errands of the house plus carefully guiding my son and the idea of writing my blog after all this work. It is actually hard but fun and fulfilling too. That in the middle of washing the dishes I am also thinking what topic should I write next, I am actually stealing time for blogging and the rest of it was for the home purpose only. If only all I need to do is write and write then share and share, but no blogging wasn't done overnight. I need to continually optimize it, engage with it and trying to beautify it with the best that I can on which I am lacking of time to do so.

And for this I am joining this Bloggy Goodies Contest for a chance to have a blog makeover or having a decent badge and logo for this site, hopefully I win but if not it was fun to do so after all this is the reason why I love being a mom and a blogger.

Browsing Through OrlandoEscape.com

girl in pool, Orlando packages, vacation


Once in a while of our life we will be able to travel in different places, either domestic or out of the country. And so a good advice is a must to take a consideration and inform us in everything that we need to know from accommodation to the place of our destination, to the overall cost of the packages. Travelling once in a while is a rewarding experience to enjoy with the whole family, to know other people, get socialized and to learn other cultures and services that they offer. But the question is, how do we start first?

I am eyeing at the Orlando Hotel Packages in Orlandoescape.com which has a lot of packages to offer including: Disney Vacation Package, the Sea Worlds & Acquatica Package, The Universal Studios Package; where Hotels near Universal Studios, and the Swim with the Dolphins Experience Package at Discovery Cove. Their tour packages are near to their hotels and accommodation so you can actually save for a fare. Best time to book for a vacation  was summer time which is already the seasons today. Don't forget to bring you camera and other gadget plus your charger to get the best picture capturing of your family while enjoying in Orlando which offers some deals and discounts now.

Infographic: Blogger Journey

I've seen this Infographic with Infolinks while checking out my earnings in dashboard. It was actually originated at Problogger.net and the author really did a good presentation on how a blogger starting out his journey in blogging to effective blogger. 

I actually see some resemblance in me as a blogger, I have also encounter that troubles in creating my own URL to start with my blog. As a beginner its not really easy as it looks when I started blogging, it somehow overwhelmed to work out and do my homework and learn through it all, and all you can do is to read and search it for yourself as no one you can depend it too. Though I get a supports from blogging friends but it is not  right for me to spoon feed everything  from them, learning through myself and exploring it, is the best teacher after all.

Enjoy the "Blogger Brain" Infograhic below!
