Have You Ever Met…

Posted on April 2, 2012 by greenbucks| 1 Comment

I have long wanted to ask this question to my friends: Has there been anyone you have yet to personally meet but when you are face to face, you want to tell this person that you “know things” about him/her even if you have not met yet or has not been introduced yet? In others words, you want to convey the message that there really no need for an introductions because this person’s reputation precedes him/her.

My answer: yes, a few times I would have blurted out if I have not controlled my tongue. Of course I feel embarrassed inwardly if what I have heard are untrue. But otherwise…still I don’t want to be judgmental lest I be judged as well.

What about you?

Do You Buy Online Discount Deals?

Posted on April 2, 2012 by greenbucks| Leave a comment

As I have written a few times, we are fans of online discount deals and we’ve bought several from these sites, mostly restaurant deals, haha!

We’ve gotten a few tech gadget deals too, like two MP3 players and a boom box. When I saw the wolf camera coupons, I though about getting a digicam for the children to use in school. Yes, even digital cameras are discounted in these online deals. If only I don’t have other financial obligations, I would definitely get one for them. And get some “beauty” deals for me too 😉

Guitar Lessons

Posted on March 28, 2012 by greenbucks| 3 Comments

I have plans to scout the nearby areas where guitar lessons are being taught but I guess I have to stop the plan even before I started. The child who has interest in playing the guitar is now on vacation far away from us.

If the son who is still with us wants to have guitar lessons, then we would continue looking for a teacher. I’d hope to find a teacher who will not only teach how to play, but will at least teach about taking care of the guitar, teach about the different parts, kinds and parts of guitars (like Bass Strings, nylon strings, steel strings) and the history of guitars.

No, I am not a demanding parent, I am just looking at this from the point of view of another teacher 😉

Construction Work

Posted on March 28, 2012 by greenbucks| Leave a comment

Summer is the peak season for construction. I can’t imagine myself supervising or overseeing even a minor construction/remodeling projects, much less a major one. I don’t think I have the energy to learn about different Tubing Benders, paint rollers, door handles, kinds of woods, or even decide on what shade of paint I want to see on walls.

The minor repairs I need to have done in my little work space haven’t even begun yet and as of now, it feels like I am losing whatever enthusiasm I had at the start of the year when I was making plans about it.

With Holy Week happening a few days from now, I think I really need to start planning about this because I would really need to jump start my plans.
