Supporting World Vision through Bench’s 1M41M

If only I have enough money to support the unfortunate ones, I definitely would but I couldn’t. I, myself need to work double at times to make the ends meet. This is why I try my best to help in some simple ways.

Sam Concepcion has chosen World Vision as his recipient of Bench’s 1M41M campaign should he win the most number of votes.

Bench will donate Php 1 Million to the chosen charitable institution of the celebrity with the most number of votes once Bench reaches 1Million Twitter followers.

I just did and voted for Sam Concepcion! You can do that too! Here are the simple steps:

Head on to Bench’s 1M41M.
Log in via Twitter.
Follow @benchtm.
Vote for Sam Concepcion.

And that’s about it! Easy peasy right? If Sam wins, you’d be helping World Vision fulfill its mission!

World Cancer Day is marked on February 4 to raise awareness and to encourage its prevention, detection and treatment.

Aside from World Health Organization (WHO) supporting this cause each year, Joy Knowledge and Wishes Foundation Inc. also does its part by spreading the word to as many people as they can.

Productive Pinoy Book

The book that I have won from Pinay Mommy Online’s contest was delivered yesterday – Productive Pinoy book by Yeng Remulla.

This book is all about Time Management, Money and Living a Meaningful Life.

I’m sure this book will help me a lot. I have already scanned some pages and just by reading the titles of each topic made me smile. They are all practical and true. Well, being a Pinoy, myself, I could relate to most of what is written in the book.

Thanks Mommy Ruby!

Planning your Summer this early {at Vancouver Hotel}

I know this is quite thinking ahead of me but a few more weeks and January and February will soon be over and we shall be ushering Summer of 2012.

It does pay to be planning in advance, right, especially when you will be traveling or spending your summer holiday with children. It is best to plan ahead of time, book those plane tickets weeks ahead (and take advantage of the promos, in the process, too!). It will also prove beneficial if you will reserve those accommodations in advance, more so if you plan to stay at the Vancouver Hotel or the likes, where tourist and locals flock during the summer time.

With those essentials out of the way, you can now start planning for other travel essentials, like getting a pair of nice sunnies perhaps, or packing those color-coordinated bathing suits or sun dresses for you and your family!

Taking advantage of sale

My washing machine decided to stop serving our household just recently. For weeks, my househelp has been doing our laundry over at my parents’ house which is 5 minutes walk from our house.

Last Monday, my husband and I went around the appliance shops and able to grab one at its sale price of Php12,415.00. It’s an automatic Electrolux Washing Machine that could load up to 7kgs. 2 years ago, he bought an automatic LG washing machine for my mom that loads up to 6kgs at Php16,000.00. Regardless of the brand and capacity, I still think it’s a good deal.

Next year’s add on to my little place is an oven. He actually has given me a choice whether to take oven or washing machine, but I just thought washing machine is more needed at home so I dropped my wish of getting an oven and went for the machine instead.

If only we have enough money for all these, I would also love to have one of these bunn commercial coffee makers.
