How do you handle debt?

Wednesday, November 24, 2010




I've been having a lot of problems lately because I couldn't think of a way to quickly pay my bills. To say the least, the quick trips out of the country have not helped at all because of the fact that I haven't eased out shopping. I need to also buy gifts for the people back at home and that's another story. Just think about how much I had to spend on hotel and ticket reservations and I'm sure you have got a rough estimate how much I owe the banks. I need debt management strategies that are above the ordinary or else I'll stay working longer hours just to pay a not so payable debt. That's just not right!

I need to stay optimistic though that even if I end up using the stashed millions I have in the bank I still could pay up what I owe in my cards and creditors. That would be the smart thing to do so I wouldn't just pay interest rates from the amount which I originally have to pay for. I have to also maximize the perks that came with the subscription too otherwise the annual fee is also going to kill me. I know I can do this. I just have to ask the experts. I should start looking for people who do this professionally too so I wouldn't have to just stay under debt when the time comes.

How do you handle debt? How do you pay for it without ending bankrupt? You should tell me your stories too!

Daily Moo's 11232010


I just saw my first crush. Yeah you heard it right but to tell you honestly she didn't look right. I felt I was so fortunate to not to have ended up with her. Not to be mean but I'd go for the improvement of my race. That really made me so thankful I didn't get married so early too because that may probably be the same fate I'd say I'd be in if I didn't zip up when the time calls for it. I wouldn't go into the details of my nightlife because this is supposed to be a wholesome lifestyle site. Not so much now eh?!

Santa Claus just crossed me out on his list this year. I hate him but I don't know if he's just teasing and include me before Christmas. So to you Santa, be cool and get me that Wii I've been asking to buy myself darn it! I need it for my folks hehehe... I'll ask them to play interactive games at home. Wouldn't that be a great idea? My PS2 is gathering dust and I don't use it anymore, that is just one sad story. Donate a Wii Console now, call me!

I'm thinking of going to that formal Thanksgiving party later but I think it'll be better if I don't. I hate fancy dinners. But if they would give me a condo unit why not LOL!
People, please stop liking your own statuses on Facebook! It just ain't right. It is so annoying and I'm still seeing a lot of my friends do it, JMJ! Get a life! Hehehe.

Teri Hatcher is my favorite desperate housewife. I almost kicked my TV set when they sent rumors that she is not going to finish the next season. Good thing she dispelled rumors after a few days, I won't watch anymore if they did that. I think she promised to be there until the show gets canceled. That's great news... or maybe we can put her on Cougartown. Now that's gonna be sexy! FTW!

I'm drinking my favorite MoguMogu again. I've been doing this the past few days. It's really yummy. I couldn't last the day without it. I wish there was someway I could get my Water Chestnut fix here in the Philippines. I miss Water Chestnut bigtime! Mogumogu is a close second. Someone get me that please!

I'm hungry but I've got to go back to the gym. I know... how plastic can I get LOL!

Did You Know I Was EMO?!

Tuesday, November 23, 2010



I did go through a phase where being alone and hurting was the only way of life. I admit that I have been introverted throughout college and I'm not ashamed to be called EMO. It's really a way of life and I don't know what I could have been without experiencing that. I also got into friends who are in the same state as I am and that made life easier for me. Today it is so easy to get together on line because of Emo Chat city and that is not even half of what you can do there. Aside from connecting with friends on the same predicament, you get to enjoy what you are doing because you know how they feel. You are like kindred spirits!

You can also get to win prizes and giveaways. It is a whole community, people from different walks of life that merge and enjoy each others company. I just got them on my social network. If you are in this state it would be so nice to get to know more people in the same lifestyle. Oh how I wish I could turn back time and get back to that look that I so adore! It's cool to be different and it is awesome to be EMO. Need I say more?!

Have you ever been EMO?! Tell me when and how!

The COMPLEX Lifestyle Store Launch!




It's so COMPLEX!

Just a stone's throw away from my office is the Eastwood Mall and I must say I've been there quite a lot because of its obvious proximity to shops, movies, restaurants, you name it they've got it!

This time however it's all about shoes, yeah the addicted boy succumbs to his wishes again and pretended not to mind the shoes (I had 30+ pairs at home already get the point?!) but I really did. This is the COMPLEX Store... I was drooling the moment I arrived at the event and why not! There was Marc Ecko, Zoo York, PONY among others that I truly adore... from classic ones to sneakers, oh boy the colors were just awesome! My Size 11 (foot) was screaming for justice and want to own a new pair! There's also a collaboration between some local designers and those in the US; it was so nice to see that. If I had the chance, I'd design my own line of shoes soon!


Here are some of the highlights!



This guy and Sanya Smith hosted this event. (Sorry name recall ain't for me! LOL)

Zoo York Clothes, awesome shoes shoes shoes!

The clothes were casual - street wear. Definitely possible to mix and match.


Need I say more?! I was definitely in Shangrila that night! (Eastwood but it was like shoe heaven!)

After the show of course we were treated to something good. Us-2 Evil-0 also performed! Definitely my taste of music!

It was also a treat to see one of my favorite bloggers Mitch Dulce. She's a Milliner/Designer/Corsetiere and I admire her awesome love for fashion and the arts! She's also making names for the Philippines in UK, Japan and elsewhere in the world. Soooo Cute!... *CRINGE*

I also got to see Electrolychee and WeWillDoodle as they made the works of art that will be displayed on the store. They were really good believe me! =)



It was an awesome night. I got to satisfy my need for art, entertainment and SHOES! I already shopped there just now. You should do that soon too! =) Lots of must haves for Christmas! Make sure you drop by the Complex Lifestyle Store at the Second Level of Eastwood Mall! See you there!
