Are you tired of waking up to a sun-drenched bedroom?

Ever get blind away from the sun every morning and during the day staying in your bedroom? Carmina had tried using a privacy film unfortunately it didn't work well enough to stick and stay on the windows. I wanted to find another solution that may occur to work better. After searching online my options was to get a blackout curtain yet seems strange since I have blinds on my windows. It also suggested to look for aluminum to prevent the heat enter inside your room makes the area cooler. I went ahead started looking for it notice there are different measurements. I had measured my windows to see which one would best suit my windows and check how many need to order. It goes based on one panel. They are so many sellers, yet the measurement is difficult to find. The first seller I had placed my order requested me to cancel my order since it was no longer available. I needed four pieces of 50 x 100 cm. It was frustrating at first since I had to keep clicking which seller had the righ...

Clock


The difficult task in my life is trying to wake someone up every morning of the week when the person doesn’t seem to want to wake up.

When I use to live in the States I had changed the entire clock that was in our home one hour advance. I also change their watch and the clock in their car.

I had to figure ahead of time how to make this person wake up on time when they needed to go to school or work.

I remember when the person finally woke up I had to pretend the time was correct. They never found out when they went to work and their boss was surprised why he/she was at work early.

The person found out the clock was one hour ahead of time. I had to adjust the clock again to another thirty minutes ahead.

I can’t figure this out you know you need to be responsible for your time. When you get older you need to set your own responsibilities and priorities in your life. You can’t depend on someone to wake you up every time.

I was always taught in school when I grew up you need to be responsible for yourself when you need know you have an important appointment to always be fifteen minutes ahead of time. You never know what you will run into an accident or something comes in mind.

There is one thing I don’t like living in the Philippines people go on being late and don’t know time is precious to you and you don’t like wasting time.

My in-law is always late and they always say it is a Filipino time. I think that is not a good excuse to be late and when you know you have an appointment with them.

They should act more professional and make sure what time they will be there is what they really mean. If, they are late they should at least call up ahead of time to inform they are going to delay their arrival time.

It is common courtesy to inform whomever you will meet that you’re running late.

Common excuses:
  1. Stuck in traffic
  2. Woke up late
  3. Car broke down
  4. Change of plans
  5. Emergency
  6. Cannot get source of transportation

 I can understand if you have an emergency issue with your family, but it would be better if you had inform the person ahead of time instead of arriving where you suppose to meet and find out last minute your plans has been canceled.

I’ve had a lot of friends who use to not even inform me they are not pushing through I call them flakes. Why flakes? They tend to promise something out from you from last minute they decide not to show up.

These types of people I have removed them in my life. I no longer want to tolerate those kinds of people who don’t think you are a part of your life and they take you for granted. They are only there for you when they need something from you.

The word they use in Filipino is Indian. It is not the nationality of a person just in terms not showing up for what they have promised you.

I am more prompt in my time and make sure I am there on time.

It is harder when you are early and the person you are going out with is the one who is late. We always inform the other person we are meeting we are running out of schedule so they can prepare themselves ahead of time.

This way no one will be waiting for each other.
