My Maternal grandmother was diagnosed to have a Liver Cancer. She is suffering from severe pain. Aside from her cancer, her Glaucoma, an eye disease, caused her to become totally blind. I felt so much pity for her but I know God has a reason for everything. According to her doctor, this condition is actually curable through series of operation and theraphy. However, because of her age, the doctor told us that it will be very risky for her to undergo series of operation.

Until now, my grandma is hoping for her sooner recovery which is good for her. But then, this is a Liver Cancer and we all know that Liver is the one that transmit Blood all through out our body and according to her doctor, we must expect that her condition will become worst especially if the cancer cells are being scattered all through out her body which may affect some of her organs like her lungs, heart, brain, muscle and bone.

I wish i can help her but all i can offer are my prayers. I grew up with her and i’m really close to her that’s why i am very affected by her coindition. She’s 75 years old now but for me, it’s too early for her to leave us. I want her to see me wearing my toga and i want her to see me as a succesful man.

This is so hard for me and i can’t do nothing about it. I love her so much and i don’t know how to accept everything.  Prayers! this is my only tool and i know how powerful it is. I know everything will be fine and my grandma will soon find her recovery. Please pray for my grandma’s recovery too!

Eyeglasses serve as the main tool for eye protection and vision correction. Nowadays, this pair of eyeglasses has become more useful and plays a very important role especially in the fashion industry. Just like contact lenses, these eyeglasses are also used as a fashion statement. As you wear your fashion eye glasses it became and formed part of your identity. These eyeglasses may be made either prescription or non-prescription lenses which depends upon your eyesight condition.

So far, I don’t wear any prescription glasses but according to my mom, wearing non-prescription glasses is quite risky and I better start trying to wear eyeglasses as prescribe by an eye specialist and besides there are available fashion frames with wide variety of designs.

I love transparent eye glasses because I feel more comfortable with it. I started collecting eyeglasses when I was in college and I try to buy multiple glasses with different styles and designs so that I can match them up with my clothes.

Speaking of glasses, I just went over to GlassesShop.com to search for their newest and most fashionable eyeglasses.

Last week, My friends and I went to Ice Vodka Bar which is located somwhere in Makati, Philppines. We really had so much fun dancing and celebrating all night long. The highlight of the celebration are the gorgeous Ms. Earth Candidates. They are so gorgeous and their beauty are so stunning. They are very friendly too.

Here’s the Store Manager posing with our very own Miss Philippines.

Miss Israel and Miss Serbia

Stunning beauty of Miss Brazil ( by the way, the girl beside Miss Brazil is a close friend of mine^^)

Here’s another Ms Earth Finalist promoting a vodka product from Ice Vodka Bar

For those whose not familiar with Miss Earth, Miss Earth is an annual international beauty pageant promoting environmental awareness. Last Year, it was Miss Phillippines Karla Henry, who was crowned as Miss Earth 2008 becoming the first Philippine representative and the first in the Asian region to be crowned as Miss Earth.

Now i wonder who among these beautiful ladies will bring home the crown and will be recognized as Miss Earth 2009?

Nowadays its very common to see all ages of men and women using colored contact lenses. At least half of the time, these are non-prescription contacts, also known as cosmetic, novelty or fashion contact lenses. They used to be quite expensive but because of their increasing popularity, the prices are more reasonable, and there are even cheaper one being bought from Korea as you’ll see if you surf  Ebay Philippines or the multitude of sellers on Multiply.

These lenses are fun to waer and people wearing them have been getting younger, probably because of their current affordability or because parents don’t see the harm in buying them for their children. I think this is perfectly fine, but both the purchasers and the wearers should be aware that cosmetic lenses can damage the eyes if they’re not worn and cared properly. All it takes is a litlle effort to keep your eyesight safe from injuries and infections. If you’re careless with your cosmetic lenses, as ofcourse its even possible to be with prescription lenses, the result could be vision damage and evn blindness.

The best thing to do before buying cosmetic lenses is to have a professional eye exam to find out if you have any eye or vision problem that might make wearing non-prescription contacts harmful and ask them to give you a professional training session and how to use and care for your contact lenses.

Here is a checklist of how to take proper care of your eyes and your lenses:

  • Wash your hand thoroughly before touching your lenses
  • Keep your lens case clean.
  • Disinfect after storage. If your soft contact lenses have been in storage for longer than 12 hours, clean, rinse and disinfect them again using instructions from your doctor
  • Have a regular eye checkups.
  • Replace your contact lenses at the appropriate time
  • Never wear your contacts while sleeping.
  • Never use saliva to wet your lenses.
  • Use the proper products for your contact lenses. Dont use home-made saline solutions.
  • Cosmetic products and lenses don’t mix. Make-up and lotions of any kind should not make any contact with your lenses.
  • Do not allow your lenses to come into contact with cosmentic lotions and creams or spray. It’s best thing to insert your lenses before putting on make up and to remove them before removing your make up.

Have you been to any casino? What’s your favorite casino game? Have you tried playing Roulette? I love playing roulette and for those who are not familiar with the game and the whole roulette system, let me share a brief information of how the game was done. The players are placing their bets on either a number, set of numbers, colors, or if the number is an odd or even. There are only two colors in this little wheel~ red and black. A dealer or also known as croupier spins the wheel and the ball in opposite direction. The ball will soon stop rolling and will fall into one of the pockets and the player who placed their bet on that certain numbered or colored pocket will win. Playing Roulette is not as easy as what you think because it also requires you a strategy in order to win. Good thing that there is a site that provides roulette strategies. CasinoVerdiener.com is a site that provides information about your favorite casino games including Roulette. They provide strategies and techniques to become an effective player of roulette. You can also practice yourself by dropping at their site and try their roulette online practice game. Start placing your bet and start playing Roulette!
