Morning Person

Happy Monday, everyone!

My weekend have been busy: exams, ballet, dentist, church. We were really tired last Saturday and all we wanted to do yesterday was sleep. I baked a mango loaf when I cannot sleep anymore. I thought it was a failure, but turned out that the center became a mango filling. I will post it in my food blog soon.

I think I am becoming a morning person. Blame Alex’s school. They transferred us to a morning schedule first because of the exams, second for the practices for their celebration of learning. I kind of hate it because it disrupts Maxyn’s routine as she also gets up when we do. The good part is that all of us get to catch the morning sunshine. But I am becoming indebted to my sleep bank. I think this means I should sleep a lot earlier at night and not when it is morning already. Oh well. Got to get used to this schedule.

Just two more weeks and it is vacation! Weepee!

Saving Options for Our Child’s Education

Getting our child the best education is a challenge that every parent is willing to take.

As a parent, we have big dreams for our children and we know that their future depends on the quality of education they receive today. This is why, in the midst of growing financial worries, we work doubly hard to prepare for their children’s future educational needs.

But with school expenses increasing every year, our savings may not be enough to cover college tuition fees and other expenses. Aside from regularly saving money, one can also prepare by getting profitable investments that offer better returns. Invest in companies which have made a mark and have a proven track record in the industry, like Insular Life.

Birthday Gift for Riders

From what I know, the term Riders is mostly used to refer to Motorcycle riders.

I have a rider friend and he is really into motorcycles. I think we were in high school when he owned his very first motorcycle. He customizes the paint and keeps on upgrading parts. Before he left for KSA, I think he had about two or three motor bikes. No one will use them when he leaves so even if it is against his will, he sold them.

He is still into this and I think he will certainly appreciate Arai Helmets as a gift for his upcoming birthday. Shout out to his girlfriend! :p
