A second job for me
Working in a bank here in California is really tiring since our branch has a lot of clients. I got transferred from a teller job to office job in my 2 years stay. I can say that I am really enjoying it, not to mention that it pays very well. However, since I have nothing to do at home after work, I am thinking of getting a second job , maybe a thrice a week schedule will do. I saw a few offerings in our area and im planning to apply over the weekend. I can also try a sales career because it has a flexible time schedule. I hope I can handle a second job as well.

Medical ID
I never thought that there is a medical id jewelry. My officemate is looking for a gift to her sister who is graduating from the medical field, and she showed to me a very beautiful Medical ID necklace with pendant which is personally engraved with her name. It really looks perfect and elegant and I find it useful for the receiver. I wonder if they offer it too for some other professions. Now I am thinking of giving one for my cousin in Manila who works as a doctor in a very prominent hospital.

Father's day Gift
My dad celebrated his birthday last May 24 and since I just got back from Manila then, I wasn't able to get him a gift. So now that Father's Day is fast approaching, I am thinking of what to give him , and I want it to be special. We went to the mall last weekend where he saw a watch, and I just told him that I will buy him one. He's never into luxury watches, but this time, I really want to give him one. I checked the price at the mall and I still find it expensive. So I checked online for some bedat brands and I'm too lucky to grab a really good price. I always take precautionary measures ever since I started with Online Shopping because some say that it's not safe. But not with vialuxe. It's one of the trusted and safest site to buy a watch. Of course, they guarantee the authenticity of the product too. I find the site easy to navigate because I was able to find the watch model I am looking for. I was even able to see other models not offered at the mall, but I'm sticking with my original choice. It's simple and can even be used for work or casual occasions. Now I am ready to place my order, and for my dad to receive it before Father's Day.

A time to save
As a bank employee here at the US, i have the privilege to meet different kinds of people. Some of them tend to open a savings account just for the sake of obtaining a loan. But, some of them are really saving for their future, i was able to interview one of my clients since they are already reaching the retiree's age, their saving for a grand vacation or tour around the world. What way to spend a hard earned money.

Silver
After my vacation last May 3, I did some accounting of my money when I got here. I was surprised to see that I still have money left from my vacation budget. So I am thinking of what to do with this extra since I dont want to splurge yet on shopping. Last night, I saw the website of Monex Deposit Company, where you can buy gold or silver then have it safely shipped right through your doorstep. Or you can have it securely deposited in a bank. I am thinking of buying some silver since it is getting really demanding in the market nowadays. I still need to go through their terms at the website because I am not really familiar with this process. I do hope this will be a good investment for me as I really wanna save up for the future.

Summer time in Manila
We spent one weekend at a Private resort in Laguna with my cousins and other relatives and we had so much fun, we ended sleeping at 4 in the morning. As Expected , everyone dipped in the pool after lunch time because of the scorching heat. Good thing I was able to grab a few swimsuits here for me and for my sisters. I left everything there because I dont think i will use the swimsuits here.. hehehe.
Swing for the kids
I had a blast during my vacation in Manila. At most times, I played with my nephew and nieces at the house. When I was doing some surfing at the net a while ago, I have decided to get them swing sets that would be perfect for our yard. I am so sure they will enjoy their afternoons playing with it. I just need to find the best way on how I can have it shipped there. I hope it wont cost me too much.

Newly renovated
I've seen personally the soon to be finished renovated house of my brother in law. It was amazing, since it's very simple and yet it so very homey. The patio is almost finished and i've advised him to check out the internet for some potential good buys of patio furniture. We'll check other site later since we need to have a shortlist of designs available and that will fit in with the design of their patio.

Pack lightly
I'll be back again to the US this sunday. I'm planning to pack lightly, i'm buying some new luggage, i'm considering this Johnston and Murphy road agent suitcase since the size of it is a approved carry on size for most airlines.I'll buy this on Friday so that i'll not be on cramming mode. I had a lot fun during my stay here, i'll plan another getaway this year...hope that will be on Christmas time.

Memory Upgrade
My computer is starting to slow down since i have installed so many programs. My friend suggested that i upgrade my dell memory. I have to consider this on my next salary, since this is another out of the budget expenses. I have to find some cheap ones so that it will be on my budget. I'll ask my friend if there are some sites online that are offering such memory on a reasonable price.
