Don't Let the Bed Bugs Bite!

When I was in college, there are times where I had to go to other houses and sleep over because I had a thesis or project I need to finish in a week. I hate doing that because first, I can't sleep because it's not my bed. Aside from that, you'll sometimes get disappointed when you wake up; because something just bit you. For the years that you have been taking care of your skin, it'll just get a big bump that'll get surely infected in a couple of hours. No cream, no medicine would be able to make that subside. I know someone who'll get ugly after that.

You often wonder how people get it. I don't even know but that just made my day when I slept over a friend’s house. Is it because they didn't clean the mattresses too often? Is it because they are not that keen on getting their house fogged? I know for a fact that this friend of mine was a cleaning freak. If I wasn't aware of it, I'm sure I could've thought that he had a disorder of some sort. No matter how clean he was with everything in his house, the fact is; I got bitten.

I actually told them about it too. This friend of mine just got out of bed; and learning about the ordeal I went, he immediately rushed to the room to look at it. Actually, he did not just look at it but he was lifting things and preparing to burn it to the stake. I was surprised about what he wanted to even do at that time; I had to stop him from his impulsive ways. I just can't let him do that to a 12,000 peso bed; throwing it away was not even part of my wildest dreams. It is just too expensive and his mom would probably be the second person to freak out in that same day. I'm not a psychology graduate so it would be difficult to handle really.

If you've got bed bugs in your bed, I read about a simple solution that can take these annoying things away from you. There's a mattress cover made of plastic, which are 100% bug proof that can zip around the outside of it and eliminate the bugs in about 6 months. This has been proven to work in a lot of homes, so why shouldn't we try this one ourselves right? You’ll surely get thanked for saving that expensive major part of the bed, I know I was. Make sure you know this so you’ll get to be the hero too.

John Travolta's son dies in Bahamas Vacation Home

I together with the world am shocked! This kid was the one I saw in Oprah once I think. He had history of seizures because mainly of his medical condition, he's probably epileptic. I think I have a cousin that also had this and he's kinda affected by the times he hit his head on things. I am so blessed I did not go through this my self because I was really prone to have it with family history and all. 16-year-old Jett Travolta hit his head in a bathtub Friday Jan. 2, 2009. He was declared dead at Rand Memorial Hospital on Grand Bahama Island. My condolences to John Travolta and his family.

Where My Friends Can Get Help

I'm a friend. The one they usually run to when they need to talk. I'm a very sensible person. I talk straight and do not sugarcoat anything just to make a point.

I have lots of friends who need help and I try my best to give them my point of view and what particular solution I could offer if I were in their situation. This is kind of awkward do discuss with most of my female friends. I fell short helping them since I couldn't relate that much in some aspects of their life. I've got friends who are single moms now. This is where my dilemma started.

I don't think I'm the right person to ask in this field because first of all I'm a guy. I may have opinions of my own but it would be slightly general if I attempt to help them. I am no professional nor am I claiming to be the best person to talk to. I am not and wouldn't be in their situation of course but I know if these women get together and share their experiences, it would be better for them to learn from the mistakes they made living that way. It’s non conventional I know but there are thousands if not millions of other women in that situation that may have survived what they are experiencing now. This I guess is better than a guy telling them what to do with their lives.

Single Parent Chat services are now available in http://www.singleparentchatcity.com/ ; so if they need some advise from real people anytime in the world, this I think would really be helpful. Men and women from different walks of life help each other. This I think would be better than that self help book they’d pretend to read in stores. Again, this is my hope for those who need help in a matter I’m no expert on. Try to live this world a little better than when you found it, so when your turn comes to move on you will have a happy feeling that you have not wasted your time but have done your best.

Jinky Pacquiao Now Out of the Hospital

ANG SWEET NAMAN! HEHEH...

Jinky Pacquiao, the wife of People's Champ Manny Pacquiao just got out of the hospital after she gave birth to a healthy baby girl (the 4th child). She was allowed by her attending doctor from Los Angeles Metropolitan Medical Center to go out with newly born Queen Elizabeth because of their good condition. Jinky was obviously a proud Mom, Manny did not even blink looking over his wife and kids.
Manny Pacquiao did not waste time greeting everyone back in the Philippines and gives his wishes for the country in the new year! The champion indeed deserves to rest, but I heard this evening that he's slated to go head to head with a British boxer come May 2, 2009. We'll probably win that as well!
