Yesterday, my eldest son’s cellphone was stolen from our own home. Who took it? It could be anyone who comes in and out of our home everyday. The cellphone is not really that expensive. In fact, it’s actually very cheap but still I paid good money to buy that for my son. What worst? It got stolen right from inside our home.
I was sleeping when the cellphone disappeared but, according to my wife and son, the cellphone was just on the television cabinet when it suddenly disappeared. They noticed the disappearance when my wife’s eldest sister asked if she can use the cellphone to send someone a text message. Unfortunately, the cellphone was no longer there.

Some of these photos were taken last December, 2009 but since I will be posting them here for the first time then I guess I can still call them New Photos for 2010.

Browsing the pages of a newspaper classified ads section she saw some openings for Domestic Helpers in Hong Kong. One of the ads was from an agency with an office in Ermita. The ad says that no fees will be collected and that it will be salary deducted. Estimated salary per month was 20,000 PHP to 25,000 PHP, depending on the employer in Hong Kong.
Dang thought that the offer was good so she called the office in Ermita to verify the information placed on the ad and to inquire about additional information. She also checked POEA’s website to see if the agency was listed and it was listed with good standing. Confident that the agency was not an illegal recruiter, Dang went to the agency’s Ermita office for the interview and video taking. Read the rest of this entry »

Last Saturday (July 18, 2009), my Mother-In-Law, Consuelo Rondina, was laid in her final resting place at San Pablo City Public Cemetery. She was 70 years old when she passed away. As far as I know, the cause of death was her Skin Cancer. The cancer already ate through her face and according to my wife, it was already attacking her internal organs in the abdominal area. Unfortunately, the cancer was never really treated because the cost of the medicines were somewhat expensive and I guess because of that the cancer spread and attacked other parts of the body.
