I Love Trade Shows

I love going to trade shows. Really I do.

With so much to see and learn (and so many free food tasting to do plus tradeshow giveaways to hoard, LOL),  trade shows do not just attract shoppers looking for good bargains and would-be clients but the curious and the business-minded too.

From new products to recycled ideas, trade shows are a must-see for me. These are also great places to learn about cultural specialties and regional pride.

Richard Castle

Ever heard about Richard Castle?

Richard Castle is the main character in ABC’s show Castle. This is one of my favorite tv series these days and I dare not go back to bed after the kids are fetched by the school bus because I watch it over at ABC every Tuesday 8am here (8pm ET).

He has his own Richard Castle Twitter account too 😀

Trio Does the Trick

I’ve a little secret.

I’ve started taking these herbal pills being advertised on tv, the ones which say has L carnitine to help burn the fat. It has a caution though that diet and exercise SHOULD be accompanying these, two of which I don’t really have spent some time with. The trio does the trick of losing weight.

In my quest to find the best weight loss supplements I ignored two important factors: diet and exercise. I know, no pain, no gain. In this case, no pain, no weight loss. And for someone like me who is not getting any younger, losing the excess pounds is very hard to achieve.

Unless I go to a “beauty” expert and have these lasered or whatever.

Tahimik

Tahimik

Tahimik na pamumuhay,

aking inaasam.

Walang kaguluhan, gutom at giyera,

nguni’t sa mga pangyayari, imposible nga ba?

Doon sa kakahuyan, tahimik at payapa

sa umaga maririnig ang huni ang ibon,

sa araw naglalaro ang mga paru-paro,

at sa gabi naman, mahimbing ang tulog.

Gugustuhin ko ba ang ganitong buhay?

Bakit hindi, kung ako ay magiging masaya

Walang maingay, mabaho at magulo,

basta kasama ang pamilya at

may internet ako.

Bow.

I Am Worried

I have been losing sleep over this super-typhoon called Megi, said to be one of the strongest ever to hit the country. And now I have more reasons to be so: my parents’ home in the province was badly hit, with the roof severely damage.

I want to go and visit them, the travel is not that long, we can go there in 4 hours or so, give and take. But then again, the budget I will have to spend traveling would be best spent given to them.

So now, I have to work harder to be able to contribute at least something to that sad state of the roof issue.

Sigh…
