Bedroom Dressers: Time to Kick Off Those Mess

It's Saturday once again, and the best thing to do first before enjoying the comforts of my bedroom is to clean all the clutters that has piled up during the weekdays especially our bedroom dressers. With two, busy kids who go to school, our bedrooms can easily be disorganized. They always end up looking like an unruly mess, particularly our dressers. Whew, you could just imagine what a sight it makes! It is as if a hurricane just passed our room leaving no mercy to those who came her way. Since I started working, I have not found any moment to do some general organization of all the stuff on our dressers but I always see to it that I return all the things to their places after using them and routinely sort them to see if there is anything I can discard. It is really very important for me that our things are organized. Besides looking neat and clean, it would be a great time-saver when I am looking for something. Well, I do admit, I could blast like an active volcano when I look

Dead Lines Over Deadlines

What's this van doing here? The country is saving electricity. Are we taking our part in celebrating Earth Day early? The answer is just a plain "No". The reason is too far from Earth Day's campaign. We are saving electrical energy for the coming election on May 2010. We have scheduled power interruption, - er not really scheduled because we don't receive any advisory from the provider - which happens almost everyday. As usual, I was burning my browses trying to beat my deadline. I'm on the process of quality checking my work when my monitor turned black. I thought there would be no power interruption today but why did this happen? We went out of the office trying to get some fresh air only to realize that we're the only one having power problem. Our line was dead because of overload. An hour or so later, a white van with a ladder on top on it came and we easily identified them as the power people. They effortlessly pulled the ladder from the van

Never in the Field of Medicine

I was on my way home last night. Seated beside me in the multicab is a girl in a conventional hospital nurse uniform. She was excitedly chatting with another girl on her side. I know it is not good to eavesdrop but I could hear their voices without intending to listen to their conversation. They just came from a school-related activity. When I dropped my head trying to take a nap, I saw a hardbound folder on the girl's lap. I figured out they just attended her oath taking ceremony. When I was just a little girl, I have always wanted to become a teacher. I would insist I be one on role-plays in school or even at home. Most of my classmates and friends also wanted to be a teacher. It could be that our teachers had great influence on our childhood dreams. I have never dreamed I would be in a medical profession. The only times I have worn lab coats for doctors were on science laboratories. I have seen people on medical scrub sets but never imagined myself wearing one. Because of

Preventive Maintenance for Electric Fan

Electric fans accumulate dust and dirt quickly. This would greatly affect the efficiency of the fans. It is very important that we keep fans clean at all times. To clean your electric fan: Use warm soapy water to clean the blade cover, blade and front and rear outer cover. Make sure to remove the accumulated dirt in the fan motor itself. Use a paintbrush to clean it. Wipe everything ensuring they are all dry before returning the parts.

Untimely Death

We may be distressed by what we see. We may be wracked in pain as we pray for insight to understand. God may grant us that wisdom. But how much better it is to have faith from the very beginning, to be confident in things we cannot see! We must recognize that God’s grace and justice are not absent because we cannot see it. Faith does not end our distress, nor does it abolish our prayers for wisdom and understanding; but it places a firm foundation under our knees as we pray those prayers. It gives us shelter while we pray for the rain to stop. It gives us strength in our times of weakness, comfort in times of distress, and hope for joy in times of great sadness.

Amount of Jobless People in US Still Growing, Unemployment Filings and Unemployment Extensions Grow

The people of a country or organization are the most important assets in the world. Employment is defined as occupied in a job or the state of being employed. On the other hand, unemployment is being out of a job or the state of being unemployed. Although the United States is considered to be a country that is highly developed, over the past few years its unemployment rates have been increasing. The Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor has reported that in January of 2011, the unemployment rate in the United States was 9%. The country is faced with an increase in unemployment rates because of competition and the growing population. There continues to be a need for people who are employed every time the population increases. However, the unemployment rate has increased, due to the fact that there are a few job positions available. Unemployment is also caused by competition of businesses that are managed by offshore companies. Additionally, the county i
