My cousin, who I love dearly, was heartbroken. She was cheated on and made to feel like a failure by someone she’s trusted for the past three years. I told her that should she feel inclined to, she can come live with me. I want to be able to help her move on and get over that episode of her life. I called cross country movers to ask if they can help her and I got an affirmative. Now all I am waiting for is her decision. I do hope she’d say yes and leave behind a life that’s giving her grief at the moment.

I am totally amazed at how some people can live without the amenities that city life can give. Like electricity, filtered water, the buzz of the streets… the noise I can live without. But the bright lights and the vibe… I think that’s something I couldn’t live without. I kept asking my relatives how they can live like that and they said that it’s getting used to and adapting to your environment. I think I can if I don’t have a choice.
But being the city girl that I am, I will probably find my way back to the city way of life.
When we went on a vacation last April, my aunt and I brought along our camcorders. To record every moment of fun and bonding among us. Four families went to that trip to the countryside and it was so much fun! We went swimming, on a picnic and we went to visit a couple of relatives we haven’t seen in a while.
We don’t go on vacations that much because of work schedule that won’t match and due to budget constraints. It is really costly to go on vacations especially when the whole family’s together. But when we do go, we make sure that we make every single moment count.
The effects of global warming are scary. The weather anywhere in the world is going awry. What we were used to no longer apply. Even here, from where I am, the weather is going bonkers on us almost all the time. Sunny, rainy. You don’t really know what to expect anymore!
It’s not yet too late. I know we can still do something about global warming. In our own little ways, let’s help our planet get back on its feet and become “healthy” once again. There are various ways to help. Green shopping is one. Buy.com is encouraging everyone to go Green shopping. This is like enjoying a simple pleasure but giving back to Earth.
What’s your way of helping?
