Cheap thrills, anyone?

Filed under: by Christian Castillo at 6:21 pm

Tonight I will attend a movie premiere for free. I just joined an online promo for that particular movie. Luckily I won ticket for two. I hoped my wife and I will not overspend on dinner so we can truly call it a cheap thrill. We have also bought snacks outside so we can have them during the premiere. Of course, these are discreetly place in our bags.

It has been awhile since we last went to a movie. Surely, this would be a night to enjoy, especially if it is for free. Ciao!

Ten Things I Hate

Filed under: by Christian Castillo at 9:48 pm

1. people who are hypocrites (especially in the office)
2. people who are inconsiderate
3. people who can not follow simple instructions
4. people who take a lot of time to order their food in a fast food restaurant (looks like they really do not know what to eat)
5. drivers who travel from innermost lane to outermost lane in a 4 lane hiway (it is like they do not know where they are headed)
6. rain or shine within two hours (I just waxed my car!!!)
7. people who spit anywhere, anytime!
8. too much politics (well, business as usual for us)
9. tv channels all showing drama anthologies
10. people who drive so slow and yet stay hugging the innermost lane

The prophesy

Filed under: by naomi at 2:33 am

There this someone named Juseleeno (Sorry I don’t know him and I just heard his name on this prophesy) who made a very controversial prophesy about the Philippines. According to him the Philippines will have an earthquake of 8.1magnitude on July 18,2008.

Most Filipinos were shocked and some went out of panic. It was always heard in Tv, radio and even on internet mails, it was all over.

I am not against those people who made prophesy nor have nothing against them. But I think they should not just say anything that has pop out on thier minds cause there’s a lot of people worrying about it.

Now, its already July 18, 2008. Many were thinking will that prophesy happen or not? Well its almost 3:30pm here and the good thing none of the prophesy ever happens and wish it will never happen.

Rising inflation leading to financial squeeze

Filed under: by Christian Castillo at 1:52 am

Fuel and food prices continue shooting up, month after month. Because of this some of us can no longer keep up with their bills. But unpaid bills will have to be acted upon before the situation goes worse. Here are some tips to consider if faced with such a dilemma:

1. Know where you stand considering the financial mess you got. Gather all your bills and sort them. Separate each in a folder and prioritize bills according to which ones need your urgent attention. Organizing is critical for you to keep ahead of the bills.

2. Communicate with your creditors for the late accounts. They will assist you in making a payment plan suitable for your means and for their collection.

3. Set up a budget based on the agreed payment plans. Strive to follow the plan so you can pay on time and in full.

4. Identify necessary items that you will have to spend on, and give up wants while you strive to balance your budget.

5. Get financial help from friends or relatives to avail of best credit arrangements. However, do your best to pay them soonest possible.
