Around the World

Saw this in eHow as usual and I have to post it here..

1. No matter where you are going, underwear is a must. Bring along a pair for each day, and a few extras. Fold them how you would normally fold them. Ladies remember, bras can be worn for more than one day and bringing one for each day is unnecessary and takes up space. If you’re going somewhere warm, you can probably get away with wearing a bathing suit top during the day and only using the bra at night or have a bra for wearing only during the evening-so you can get more days of use out of it- and use the rest for during the day. If you’re going somewhere cold, you can get away with a few days’ use…you’re on vacation after all.

2. Decide on a wardrobe. Again, clothing can be worn for more than one day. Take a shirt for every 2 days, with maybe 2 extras. One pair of jeans or one pair of shorts will do- you can wear the other pair while traveling. Take as little as possible- it’s a vacation, not a fashion show.

3. When it comes to toiletries, everything come in travel size. Get everything you need, shampoo, toothpaste, soap etc. in travel sizes. They may seem small but you’d be surprised how long a travel size tube of toothpaste lasts. If you run out of anything, odds are you’ll be able to find a store to get something temporary for your time there.

4. Shoes. There is no need to take 8 pairs of them. If you’re going somewhere warm sandals,flats, and maybe a pair of sneakers should get you through. If your destination is cold you’re pretty much set with a pair of heavier shoes, a pair of lighter shoes, and maybe some slippers for when you’re inside.

Tips & Warnings

* Remember that you are going somewhere where, odds are, there will be stores. If you forget anything, you’ll be able to buy it.
* Pack everything in plastic bags- it keeps things in a contained area, keeps out the suitcase smell, and gives you a place for putting dirty laundry later.
* IF you need to bring something bulky like a sweatshirt, wear it while to travel. You can always take it off, and this way it’s not taking up half your suitcase.

I think I shared around in my authored blogs that my in-laws just opened a new fully furnished and non-furnished apartments around here. I was able to check a few house stuff like this American Standard toilets. Good thing, online sites offers very reasonable and even discounted prices. Some others stores offers free shipping and if not, your ordered goods will be at your doorstep as fast as you can imagine! There are exchanges to goods you are not happy of course!

I need to get a new Branded flash drive for a friends pc and I had a hard time looking for one online. Good thing, I saw this site that offers affordable stuff and I can get it in no time without having to hassle myself lining up in the mall. I will check another item to go with the shipping. I’m sure it’s reasonable!

I am looking for a functional ceiling fan and cool home lights! A new Ceiling Fan in the dining room actually since the old one is acting up and the bulbs needs changing too. So a new one sounds great! I asked the husband already about buying a few stuff. But since we have to really budget the money because of the ongoing things we needed to pay first. I thought I will just get new home lights and Ceiling Fans over the net! I can get a cheaper and it’s cool too! I’m not sure of the shipping but my Aunt who lives in Maryland will be home next week. So, I can let her receive those items and she will just give it to us when she’ll be here! Hmm…not sure if that’s a good plan but I am really liking this home lighting site that I found earlier! I think this Hansen Wholesale Ceiling Fans that the husband requested would be a great choice. They have ongoing sales and I just can’t pass it up! And to top it all, they have every lighting for the house! Now, I’ll see if my Aunt will say yes and then I can get it! I still have a week before she go home and I can let it overnight to her house! How about you? Looking for a new lightings? Check that site!!!

I’m off to check about dip bar and realized that I haven’t renewed my Flickr account that expired last month! Ughh..I should really try to do that soon. I have tons of photos needs uploading..I took tons of photos when we went to Seagull Resort, Little Boracay and a few others I forgot already because I didn’t upload photos..Very busy really and I was very sick this past weeks..Anyhow, I hope to post more later…

The husband have been telling me that we should try to do ski vacations with our lil boys! We did this actually when we don’t have kids yet. I’m not sure if I will enjoy it again because the boys will surely take over the place and I will have a hard time baby setting! Ughh..But it will be a fun experience for the boys really..We’ll see if we can swing around to doing this…

I have been thinking of subscribing to a new Direct TV Deals because I’ve been seeing this in the adverts and it’s actually really interesting. The one we have is acting up and since we are thinking of transferring to a new place, it would be great to do the application earlier for less hassle! Direct TV would be a great idea because my boys loves to watch cartoons and we could set up and make choices of stations that we want. Aside from other satellite providers that offers tons of channels yet some of them you cannot understand. With the help of Direct TV Packages you can be sure you get what you paid for! And it says that whatever channel options you are looking for, they have this enter your zip code for you to check the personalized channels! Right now, they have a great deal for $29.99/moth with 150 plus channels to check out!

Anyway, I’m going to ask the husband about this. I’m just looking around first on what’s the best deals and where to find affordable tv options for us. But after seeing this, I might as well give it a try! With Direct TV Service you can be sure that they are available for you anytime you need them!

I have been trying to make an appointment for my little boy’s dentist. I am thinking his dentist is not in the country and might be back later next month or after the holidays! So, I think it would be better if I will just check another one that would replace his dentist. He needs cleaning and a few tooth extractions which supposed to be done last month. He doesn’t need something like dental implants Mexico but I will try to check another dentist for future purposes as well. Reminds me to have my early appointment for my braces as well..

I have a few errands to run today and then I’ll pick up my little boys costume for their Halloween party next weekend. I am about to book a room accommodation for a friends birthday bash and then I received a text message that someone we know had a little problem with the traffic enforcer! Reminds me to check on motorhome towing online! I still have a lot of task online. Might as well do it when I’m back later tonight! Specially they are beneficial as well!

I love football/soccer games! I remember when the FIFA World Cup 2000 game was held in Yokohama. I was waiting to pop my eldest that time. Actually, it was a moment to remember because my water bag broke when I was cheering for the Japan team! Now, I still watch football once in a while. Specially if I have a lot of spare time..But the husband is a fanatic and has been watching games ever since! He love the AC Milan and of course the Japan team! With the help of livescore he knows what’s happening around the football world! So when I saw this football fixtures online, I know that the husband will enjoy watching his fave team! Schedule of games from around the world. I bet tons of fanatics flock at this site to look for schedules! They don’t just give you the scores, odds, fixtures, bookmakers and news. They also have a blog that is updated regularly about the happenings! At the right corner of the site, the top bookmakers are posted just in case you want to check it out. I will surely let the husband know about this site. That if he don’t know yet..But for a fanatic like him, I bet he knows this as well!
