Time and time again, we constantly here the reminders from our folks that buying jewellery is a wise form of investment. However, that is the use of fine jewellery when you cannot wear any piece of it on the streets. You might was well keep your money in the bank but then again your money in the bank which does not get a compensating interest no matter how big the balance that reflects in your passbook. So why not try to think of some other forms of investment like business or just buy gold coins. Currently, the United States Gold Bureau allows for the delivery or just for convenient and safe storage of your gold coins at any bank or depository of your choice.
Gold possession has been known ever since as one of the best forms of investment. During the ancient times of Egyptians, Greeks and Romans, man has placed a mark in terms of fondness of gold and now the beauty of gold is being recognized worldwide for its proven ability to diversify investments, protect and for its ability to preserve and intensify one’s purchasing power.

My favorite salon
At the corner of Espana Blvd and Vicente Cruz Street lies a beauty salon which does not belong to the chains of salons that are mushrooming everywhere. By the look of its exterior and interior, I could say that it is not struggling. Its presence has caught my attention ever since I moved to my sister’s house in Sampaloc, Manila. By its length of survival in the midst of gigantic chains of salon, it stands confidently in its location which I find unnoticeable. Maybe it has built its clientele offering friendly and competent service.
I always have my manicure and pedicure done there. The ladies there do not find a hard time following my instruction --- not to cut my ingrown nails and cuticle and just to simply cut my nails across. Funny thing though is that although I have been a regular customer of that salon, I do not know its name.

The great experiment
After my recent frustration with the Pad Thai I have tried at Muang Thai in Quezon City, I searched for a little help on the internet in order for me to come up with the a decent version of the famous Thai food.
With so many versions of Pad Thai on the net, I decided to stick to the recipe of chez pim at chezpim.typepad.com since she’s a Thai to being with and her title for the article suits me best: Pad Thai for beginners.
I tried to follow each of the steps and to gather most of the ingredients. The result: a very tasty Pad Thai! It is not perfect though but I think through practice, I can reach the Thai perfection ala Little Asia.

Just got lucky
While munching on my quickbite, the promo guy infront of the hardware was busy demonstrating his products to on lookers. He is talking about cad drawings and some architectural stuff which I think caught the attention of a pack of students who I think are architecture or engineering students. They were very enthusiastic about the product and before I left the scene, the promo guy has sold a couple of his products to the said students. Lucky dog!

Remiscing
Today, my last day of the three days off, I decided to head to the grocery to buy some toiletries and to buy another set of ingredients for the repeat of my successful take on Chicken Pad Thai. Right after I hit the store, I grabbed a bite of shawarma at the foodcourt and sat by the table near the Baldwin hardware. Flashbacks went in my head as I used to decompress at this store when I was still living on my own. I got distressed by looking at and reading on the product information of every product I could put my fingers on.

A brilliant idea
Gold purchasing has been known since the early times as one of the best forms of investment. Ever since the Egyptian, Greek and Roman eras, man has expressed strong liking to terms of fondness of gold. The beauty of gold is now being recognized for its proven ability to diversify investments, protect and for being able to preserve and intensify a person’s purchasing power.
Today, the United States Gold Bureau allows for the purchasing of silver,gold bar or other precious metals and coins for immediate personal delivery or even arrange for convenient and safe storage at an independent bank or depository. It is about time to start on diverting your focus in terms of investment.

More famous than Venus Raj
So much for the major major attention Ms. Universe fourth runner up is getting. In the mids of the people's triumph emerges this viral video.
This pack of four guys is beauty pageant enthusiasts who were rooting for our very own Ms. Philippines, Maria Venus Raj.
Learning first hand that Ms. Raj has gotten into the 15 semi-finalist, they went gaga as if Ms. Raj has won the crown already.
Said video has become YouTube sensation and it landed on perezhilton.com and even caught the attention of the international news entity such as The Insider.
I recognize the other guy who's jumping up and down the bed as if he's on a trampoline as Veejay Floresca, a finalist on the Project Runway Philippines.
If other countries are darn serious about sports, the Philippines is so serious about beauty pageants.
