Jigsaw Puzzles

  • Posted on May 12, 2012 at 10:46 pm

When we were younger, my sister and I,  together with my cousins, we play at home every after school. We play hide and go seek, hopscotch, jump rope, barbie dolls (my favorite), and jigsaw puzzles (my sister’s fave).

I love barbie dolls the most because I get to change their clothes anytime and pretend that it’s me. But I also like my sister’s favorite game, the jigsaw puzzles. I remember we had a box of 1000 jigsaw puzzles where we had to form them all following the picture given. It was and it still is a very challenging game.

How about you? What’s your favorite game?

Book Car Rentals and Orlando Hotels Before Your Trip

  • Posted on May 9, 2012 at 9:23 pm

It’s always great to travel to a new place, explore its sights, and try the many attractions it offers. However, among the things that concern tourists are transportation and accommodation. After all, it’s never easy to go to a place that’s foreign to you and not have a place to sleep nor the means to get around. Hence, it would be a good idea to plan carefully before you even leave your own country.

For instance, if you’re traveling to Orlando Florida, the best place to visit to get as much information about the place as possible is through the internet. The websites can supply you with the information you’ll need to find the best Orlando hotels  or even other hotels in the city.

It would also give you a few choices on car rentals. Car rentals are a convenient way to enjoy all the attractions in Orlando. Just think; Orlando has various attractions spread all across the city. It would be very hard for you to go around if you don’t have the right transportation and accommodation. Through the information you’ll find on the Internet, you can plan your trip accordingly.

Cops, Lawyers, and Cute Guys in Medical Scrubs?

  • Posted on April 23, 2012 at 4:48 pm

I’m not talking about dating options right now so much as television preferences. I understand that, a long time ago, someone looked at a bunch of polls of American audiences. They noticed that people said their favorite professionals were doctors; their favorite president was Abraham Lincoln; their favorite animal was, naturally, dogs. The theory went that it followed that the most popular U.S. program of all time would be entitled “Abraham Lincoln’s Doctor’s Dog.”

Of course, at the movies we’re about to see “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter,” which isn’t really all that far off considering the popularity of vampires these days. Still, when it comes to television, the popularity of shows about police, legal professionals and young doctors in oddly alluring medical scrubs saving lives and falling in love on a regular basis remains about unchanged. I suppose it makes sense as these are inherently dramatic professions that quite often directly impact our lives. Perhaps for many of us, who are barely able to explain what we do to people outside our own industry, we secretly would like to have a job with clear goals whether it’s saving a life, catching a perp, or winning the big case.

Still, I admit to having a soft spot for medical shows from the States like “Grey’s Anatomy,” “House,” “ER,” and even the dearly departed comedy, “Scrubs.” Alas, they seem to be almost an endangered species. “House,” “Grey’s” and its spin-off, “Private Practice,” remain, but we’re not seeing too many successful new doctor shows and they seem to be going out fashion on the networks.

As for ultra-gritty U.S. cable, with the possible exception of “Nip/Tuck,” they don’t seem to have found a way to get an actor of the quality of handsome Jon Hamm (“Mad Men”), ultra-talented Bryan Cranston (“Breaking Bad”) or the just plain yummy Timothy Olyphant (“Justified”) into some medical scrubs. Hugh Laurie shouldn’t be the only great actor wearing them.

Or, since I also love westerns and comedies, maybe they can get Olyphant — who was also on “Deadwood” and can be very funny — to play a western doctor treating Native Americans and make it a comedy. They could call it “Cherokee Scrubs.” (Sorry, for the inside joke!)

The Look That Hooks a Man

  • Posted on April 14, 2012 at 9:59 am

Let’s all be honest, every relationship starts with flirting. It all starts with that first look, the enticing smile, and poof! You’ve got him hooked.

But as I’ve always said, too much is not good. So it is always better to know the right way of flirting to avoid “over flirting” which can sometimes make you look trying hard.

So how does “true” flirting starts? Simply by one mysterious look. Take note! Not by touching, but by simply looking at him. As they say, “Making soulful eye contact with him”.

As they say, the eyes are the windows to your soul, or in this case, your feelings. Your eyes then are the best way to show how you feel about someone.

Too matchy? Too much!

  • Posted on April 14, 2012 at 9:55 am

I know it’s great to mix and match your clothing, but then too much is never too good. A bold print dress does not need a matching hat, belt, bag and shoes. So okay, the dress is cute, the belt is all right, the shoes are beautiful, the hat is on trend and the jacket is edgy, but wearing them all together? I think not. The whole effect is too much for the onlookers to handle.

A dress with bold prints is what I’d like to call a strong anchor garment, you know, the attention immediately focuses on that. So it does not need a couple of matching accessories just to complete the look.

If you like reading fashion articles, you’ll know that having one strong (flashy) garment means toning down the rest of the accessories. There’s no need for your clothing’s to fight over each other, it is enough to have one shine the best.
