This book, The Mighty Queens of Freeville : A mother, a Daughter and the Town that Raised Them is a loose chronicle of Amy Dickinson’s life, an syndicated advice columnist in “Ask Amy”, where millions of Americans turn to every week for their everyday problems. I wondered if this book was anything like “The Divine [...]

A couple of posts ago, I told myself to dress up like I was a Tai-tai. So that I could get the real estate agent to really talk to me, instead of brushing me off.
Obviously, I didn’t need to wear any hot lingerie to make me feel like one. Hey..some people do that!
But as it [...]

Why are men so emotional? I mean it. On front, they act macho, tough and emotionless. But when they go home, they act all emotional, expecting wives to give them support for every piece of crap they’ve gone through. What about women? When left to pick up the pieces, I will say, women are the [...]

I have always had this dream.
To win big.
To win really big.
In any lottery. Be it, the Econo Lodge American values sweepstakes, the Tattslotto, or Powerball or Lucky Factory.
Imagine, if one had won. One would be free of debt. No more worrying about whether our kids would have tuition money in the future. But then again, [...]

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

I need a revamp.
My blog here needs a revamp. But that’s a totally different story.
Me..I need one. Earlier, I posted about me being a buyer’s advocate in real estate. And, I have this feeling that a lot of agents don’t give much thought to me.

See.. again, I’ll be lamenting about this subject. This subject which every woman cannot stop talking about. Especially after giving birth to babies. I so hate women who lose all their weight AND blubber right after their delivery.

Every time I look at my 3 cherubic sons…I can’t help but envy their flawless skin. I really hope and pray that when they become teens, their raging hormones will only raise a pimple or two. I won’t be able to bear it if they had to undergo some acne treatments! I remember when my [...]

I have a friend over in the states, and recently, she was injured in her workplace. It was such a silly accident, but it actually immobilized her movements and she couldn’t work. She told me she tried to apply for a social security disability claim, but she was really confused with what to do. She [...]
