Imagine being sick on a trip to Portugal. Well I don’t have to imagine for I experienced it personally. I think it may have been something in the food I ate that made my stomach really upset. So in my 10 days trip to Portugal 3 of them were spent in the hotel room. With nothing to do, I was ust happy that there was internet that I was able to purchase netbooks to keep me busy while I try to recover from my on and off fever and bad stomach ache. Thank God I decided to go there for 10 days. Imagine if I decided to just go there for 4 days.



Lapdance Is Her Name

I have to get an extra Mac memory soon. I’ve been doing a lot of shoots lately and my files are filling up my Mac’s memory. This will be the first time that I’m upgrading a pc. Normally I’d just by a new model but I got pretty much attached to this one and I made a good working relationship already to my computer which I named, “lapdance”. So tom, I’m shelling out some cash to extend Lapdance’ memory so I can stock incoming photos from Indonesia and Thailand. I just hope it’s not too expensive.

I just wanna share this mean comment that I did which I never thought that I’d have the guts to say. We met a couple of girls during our trip to Bali they were bunch of obnoxious girls and we were kinda stuck with them on a boat trip. But this particular girl just annoyed the hell out of me. She kept looking at me head to toe and every time I text or use my phone she’d be nosy enough to stick her nose on my turf. Thus I gave her a nick name; I dubbed her barcode because her stretch marks at her hips reached her rib cage. I told my friends about it and they all went hysterical and surprised that I gave such comment. They even extended the insult to her passing by a barcode scanner and making the thing alarm. I had to extend my patience to a hundred fold the whole trip and when it was over I honestly felt relived.



Perhaps the worst part about earning very much money is not having enough time to enjoy using it. A close family friend has this situation. He spent half of his life working as an engineer in a submarine. That’s one of the highest paying jobs on earth. He gets to have very nice benefits like travel perks, medical and life insurance, housing, and even lifetime scholarships for his children (not to mention monetary bonuses). But there’s a catch to every high paying job… the health hazards.

After his early retirement, he was diagnosed to have mesothelomia - a kind of cancer caused by asbestos exposure. You see, submarines have engine parts which need to be insulated to keep them from heating up. This insulation is made from asbestos which is radioactive and has already been proven to cause lung cancer. So that’s what happened. Now his only hope is the Mesothelioma treatment regularly administered to him. It’s really sad that one may have all the riches in the world but it still is not enough to buy everything (even if you have a mastercard).



Summer Paradise

Summer is almost over. And somehow my cousin who’s been taking the best weight loss pills to get that dream summer bod has been seeing great results. She said we just have to go and see the beach before summer ends. Being a water baby, I ain’t protesting to that I idea. So it has been decided that on the next weekend we’re hitting the shores of Bali! On Wednesday we’ll be doing our bikini shopping as for the summer dresses I have tons already. So it’s gonna be sand, ocean and loads of fun in the sun as we will be staying there for 10 days. Pure paradise it is!

For football (a.k.a. soccer) fanatics, instead of admiring your football gods from one of those wholesale tvs, wouldn’t it be better if you get to see them from the stands and perhaps even get to shake hands with them in person?

 

I suggest planning a trip to Europe that includes these top three destinations in your itinerary: London, Manchester, and Liverpool. These are the three largest cities for soccer or football which also houses stadiums that are the home of a club or national team with a capacity of 40,000 or more (FYI, 40,000 is the minimum capacity required for a stadium to host FIFA World Cup finals matches). Some of which are Wembley Stadium in Wembley, London (90,000 capacity); Old Trafford (football) in Trafford, Greater Manchester (76,212 capacity); and Anfield Liverpool (45,362 capacity).

 

It doesn’t matter which hotel you’re staying in. Just make sure to avail of stadium tours from the popular big clubs so you can get a behind the scenes look at the players” changing rooms and the facilities.
