Power of Prayer

Ang daming masipag ngayun :D I wonder why :) . Thanks Mich!
Let’s all work it, people :D

A very touching prayer passed on to me by Kelly.

Prayer for the MV Princess of the stars fatalities and survivors.

Dear God, we pray that you comfort each bereaved family everyday as they grieved for their loss, we pray that you will supply all their needs, we pray for the survivors that they may have a good life after the tragedy, that you will bless them and let them know in the deepest part of their heart that in spite of what have happened, you LOVE and CARE for them. This we pray in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen. I encourage everyone to keep the prayer going. LET’S P.U.S.H. (PRAY UNTIL SOMETHING HAPPENS).

We Prayed: 1. Through The Rain 2. God’s gift 3. The Adventures of Dong and Jing 4. Me, Myself and I 5. malditang bunso’s journal 6. Underneath It All 7. 100% Kelly 8. My Colorful World 9. InkBabyStudios 10. TheSaladCaper 12. MommyTalks.

Jensen Precast

Buildings and towers, in addition to their design and structure, must need one thing – a very solid foundation. In the construction industry, they know how important and demanding getting a precast done. The industry demands strength, beauty, integrity and durability on precast/prestressed concrete. So you shouldnt be getting it just from anybody. Get your Precast Concrete
from Jensen Precast. They have utility structures for electric transmission and distribution, telecommunications, water distribution (Like the Precast Concrete Septic Tanks), natural gas distribution and cable TV. According to Wikipedia, “Precast concrete is an ancient type of construction material made with concrete cast in a reusable mold or “form” which is then cured in a controlled environment, transported to the construction site and lifted into place. In contrast, standard concrete is poured into large forms and cured on site. Precast stone is distinguished from precast concrete by using a fine aggregate in the mixture so the final product approaches the appearance of naturally occurring rock or stone.”

Going Hybrid

You know what’s hot and in these days? Hybrid Cars. Yep, going hybrid is the best and smartest thing to do amidst the global oil crisis we are currently facing. I have heard in the news that there are families selling their cars (SUVS mostly) because they simply cannot afford to fuel it up and go places. Many have traded their unleaded-driven cars to diesel-run ones. Most taxi cabs use the LPG device to run mileage on. But using hybrid cars are going to be the future mode of transport for tomorrow.

Basically, a hybrid car is a vehicle that has two engines: a gas engine and an electric engine. Today, there are newer models of hybrid cars – but nothing beats the popularity of the Toyota Prius. These days, however, it is easier to find hybrid cars – and I predict this will be the car for 2009.

And why wouldnt you go hybrid? You’ll spend less on gas, help the environment, lessen dependence on foreign oil imports and if in the US, be eligible for tax credits! It doesnt necessarily mean that by using an electric engine you need to be plugged in – just use hybrid car batteries, it’s just charging a battery!

Siete.

It’s been awhile since I did this ~ thanks Abie!

Uno:
Feeling overwhelmed is a constant emotion I have now for months. So characteristic of Aggie, doing things in style. I simply cannot just make things simple no? I resign from my job, move out from the city, shifted careers to being a full-time mom, aaaay. Sometimes I wonder, “Ano ba tong pinasok ko?”

Dos:
I’m in major need of a makeover.

Tres:
I realized Im never really cut out for domesticity. This is a reason for me to force myself to learn.

Quattro:
I absolutely have no patience, even with my own kids. It is a virtue I really lack on. I pray that I can learn to be patient.

Cinco:
I noticed my handwriting is turning ugly. And that writing by hand is tiring. The peril of using the computer too much.

Sais:
I recently purged all my items. I try to think of the system that says, if it hasnt been used in 6 months, throw it away. Suffice to say, I had such a hard time parting with my shoes. It’s like beer pong tables to an obsessed collector.

Siete:
I cant believe I was able to hold a major lifechange and not blog about it for a week! HAHAHA!

Garage Space for Rent.

Yes, you have read it right. Even garage spaces can now be rented!

In London, there are parking spaces or garages that one can rent on a monthly basis. Garages for rent have been a common commodity as it is cheaper than having to park your car on a parking space and paying an hourly fee. With garages you rent, you are also guaranteed of a space to park your car everyday!

If you own a garage or a space that you would like to rent out, you can go to Parklet so that they can obtain all what it needs to have your space rented – to looking for tenants, to managing the space, preparing contracts and collecting the rental payment every month. They are largest supplier of monthly contract parking to individuals and businesses throughout the UK

I looked at their site and I think the Quick Search button was a good way to easily search for spaces according to city, they even have a mapview if anyone would prefer it that way. And if you are always in the lookout for space, you can stay on top ot by subscribing to their feed of new spaces, they have the RSS button on their site. This is what every metropolitan city needs!
