Teaching kids will test your patients so the most important thing that you have to consider is to control your temper. Never shout , scold, hit or whip them because of their mistakes or because its hard for them to pick up your words. This practices will loose their motivation to their studies and may lose their focus or concentration in their school works. Patience is a virtue remember? Getting errors are very normal for kids but you do not have to worry ,through this error, they will learn. I’ve been working as a part-time tutor since i was in high school. After going to school, my next destination is not to our house but to those children that im teaching with. My role as a tutor is not to do their homeworks or assignments but to teach them how to do such things. I will serve as their guide. If ever they have questions, i dont gave the exact answers but instead i gave them relevant information that will help them to know the answer. They should do it by their own. This post will give prior to your role as a parent or as a guardian and what are your responsibilities. For me, even though im not a parent yet, i would like to advice to teach your kid personally instead of hiring a tutor. In this way, they will be more comfortable. In teaching your kid, you have to prepared yourself. Here are some preparations that you have to follow.
Rendering your Time
You have to render a time for your kids. Im not referring to some bonding session here but to establish a study habit for your kid. We have to teach them how to balance everything. They should have a time for playing and a time to study.
Concentration
You have to focus yourself in teaching your child. It is advisable that you’re done with all your works and some house chores before teaching your child. This will help you to concentrate with what you are doing.
Child Psychology
You have to know of how child psychology works. Kids have their own attitudes and they can be very moody in terms of studying. You have to be observant and look for some ways how to handle your child.
Study and Share
We have to admit that sometimes we forgot what we’ve learned in our academic subjects. Sometimes, it is good that you read books and refresh your knowledge so in case that they will ask you something, you know what’s the answer.
Patience
As ive said, you have to control your temper and never scold them for their mistakes. You have to teach them nicely. Kids may took for granted for being nice so you have to be fair. Dont be too nice though you do not have to be too bad. Remember, you have to set your limitation.
Observing their Progress
You have to observe how much will they improve. It is good if you will try to refresh their minds and ask questions that you’ve tackled before. Ask them repeatedly if necessarily.
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.

Look at this Malvern Eyeglasses in which I found in this online glasses shop. Is it so nice? The price is very affordable so as the other glasses. I guess I will encourage my friends to visit their site too!
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:
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!

Isn’t so obvious that i really love chicken dishes. (LOLZ)
Chicken is the most common type of poultry in t
he world and one of the most affordable meat that you can find in any market. Chicken can be used primarily as food and can be cooked in many different ways.
Did you know that raw chicken can be frozen for up to two years without significant changes in their flavor or texture?
Chicken can be cooked in innumerable ways; it can be made into sausages, put in salads, grilled, breaded and deep-fried, or used in various curries.
I usually prepare an oven roasted chicken for my guest. This is how i prepare my roasted chicken. First i rinse the chicken well, then i will rub the inner part or the inside cavity of the chicken with salt. I will do the same procedure on the outer chicken part but this time i add grained pepper and peeled garlic gloves. After that, i will add the stuff inside the cavity of the chicken. I usually used potatoes, rosemary and lemons as my stuffing
.
To make your chicken more presentable, tie your chicken with kitchen strings. Before placing your chciken into your pan, try these steps first.
Melt the butter in the pan, and add the olive oil, and heat. Place your chiken in the pan and put it inside your oven
Make sure that you preheat oven to 475 degrees F. then roast it for 15 minutes. Turn the chicken to the other side and roast another 15 minutes. Lower the heat to 400°F, turn the chicken breast side up, and continue roasting for 25-30 minutes, basting with the pan juices every 5 minutes.
If you’ve stuffed the chicken, remove the stuffing from the cavity and place in a serving dish.
Yummy!
Managing a Poultry business is not an easy task! This is what I’ve learned after we visited my Uncle’s farm in our province in Pagudpod, Ilocos Norte. I really had so much fun playing with my neice and nephews, so as my cousins.
The Province of Ilocos Norte specializes in some agricultural products like rice, corn, garlic, root crops, legumes, tobacco and other fruits and vegetables. The province is also known for their Tilapia Industries. My Uncle is currently raising poultry like chickens, ducks and other livestocks like cow, sheep and pigs.
Among all these poultry animals, raising chickens is the most interesting. Most farmers keep chickens primarily as source of food, consuming both meat and eggs.
Here, i took a picture of one of their chicken.

I’ve learned that not all chickens are laying eggs. Chickens that are farmed for eggs are called “hens” while chickens farmed for meats are called “broiler chickens”. Sad to say, the life span of these poor broiler chickens typically take less than six weeks after thay have reached their slaughter size. Luckily, egg laying hens will naturally live for more than 6 years!( Thanks God)
Moving forward, chicken eggs are incubated until they hatch after 21 days. My uncle is using an improvise incubator, placing incandescent bulbs inside the cage.
Nearly all parts of the chicken can be used for food and the meat can be cooked in many different ways. I love chicken dishes like “Chicken Adobo” (a popular filipino dish), chicken curry, grilled chicken and more!
These chicken dishes are perfect to match up with some Ilocos yummy delicacies like chichacorn and Bibingka (rice cakes).
I will share it all in my next post.

Calcium is very important for everyone, especially women and children. But for a lactose intolerant like me, i have difficulty in digesting dairy. that is why i’m very thankful that there are dairy products which are 100% lactose-free. by drinking a lactose-free milk, i get the calcium that i need without the discomfort of milk products. Most Lactose-free milk are still rich in calcium and vitamin D with protein, vitamin A and other nutrients. It’s wholesome and delicoious for the whole family.
I used this lactose-free milk in my recipe and all my favorite foods such as fluffy banana pancakes served with maple syrup, caramelized bananas, butter and pecans. Yummy and tempting!
