Cash cow

What is a cash cow? It’s a person who earns a lot of money and the people around her milk to their own advantage. That’s what a cash cow is.

And you know there are a lot of individuals out there who serve as cash cows to their families and, some even to their friends. It’s a disgusting habit of a lot of people who rely on a kinder and weaker person to give them a living.

Most oldest children in the family are cash cows in this country.

Would you like to?

I am asking if you would like to create your own web site via www.imcreator.com. Do you? Because it’s relatively easy! You don’t have to know all the technical aspects of web site creation. All you need is the desire to create and maintain a web site.

I remember the first time I created a web site of my own. It was a click after click of buttons and waiting and then voila! I had a web site! It was very amateurish but I had a lot of fun with that. I believe I was able to create a number of entries in that site that I already forgot the URL of.

Anyway, I do believe that if you haven’t tried it yet, you will certainly enjoy creating a web site of your own.

Unbelievable!

I can’t believe the story about these parents who, seeing as they have a cash cow in their daughter, won’t let her find happiness by being too strict on her to the point that she can’t even have a cellphone of her own. Can you imagine that!

I mean it would have been understandable if the daughter we’re talking about here is a minor. But, no! She is already 24 years old and of sound mind and body. She is earning a lot of money not for herself but for her parents and two siblings. And despite being the obedient daughter and overly generous older sister, she is being treated like she’s going to throw away her money on unnecessary things and that she’s going to be a slut. She is not allowed to have money even if every penny is her own. She is not allowed to be friends with guys or to even entertain possible suitors. She’s of age! She can handle her own money and even have a boyfriend or two!

It’s unbelievable how parents could be this cruel to their own child. They are hiding it under the pretense of being overprotective of her but the truth is that they are robbing their daughter of her happiness! She is making her a prisoner of their misplaced love for her, if it’s even love that they have for their cash cow.

Disgusting!

Riding on the pain

He is strumming the blues away with his brand new gibson explorer. He bought it about a month ago and completely forgot about it because he was busy getting back with his ex-girlfriend who turned out to be already seeing someone else days before they officially broke up! It was painful but he will get over it, he knows that.

But right now, he needs to indulge on this pain. He needs to let it all out and just let things go back into perspective. It will happen. He will forget. Soon.

He’ll just take it one day at a time. He will strum his blues away with his ever reliable guitar playing skills. And soon, he’ll be back in one piece.

Everything covered!

Mario has a client who wants to make sure first that he’s got insurance plans in place before signing the dotted line. The client is huge and it could be a make or break for Mario so he’s taking things seriously about the insurance plans and other stuff that the client wants in place.

So he will be giving him a copy of his certificate of liability insurance and then it will be signing off day! He can’t wait to close the deal and for things to move forward. The commission will be great and he can finally put a down payment to that place he has his eyes on.

Safety first.

I don’t know how some people can take their safety for granted. It’s actually very elementary that when you go have to go out of the house, you need to take note of the safety measures you have to get in place.

Like if you have a motorcycle and you know you need to drive it, make sure you have a helmet you can use. It’s a must! Get a Arai Signet-q and then use it! Don’t ever think of going out with it because it’s safety rule number one when riding a motorbike!

I think that’s pretty simple and easy to remember, don’t you think?

So true!

I find this true. I think the very definition of a best friend is a person who knows you inside and out and still accepts you for who you are. No matter what. That’s a best friend. Because if that isn’t the best person in your life, I don’t know who is. Of course, I am talking outside the family.

What do you think?

Kid’s delight

The kids were screaming with delight over the shower of Jolly Ranchers and other candies in the birthday venue. It was Marie’s best friend’s 4th birthday and the theme of the special occasions was candies. The little girl’s mom went all out and you can just imagine just how many candies where there on that day. A lot!

To say that the kids were delighted was an understatement. The kids were ecstatic! They knew that their parents would be lenient on them that day and they devoured as many candies as they could!

Hanging out, watching a movie.

What is the perfect thing to do when it’s raining cats and dogs outside and the weather is oh, so conducive to just lazing around the house? Well, hang out and watch a movie!

Good thing there are a couple of new bean bag chairs around because Janice’s friends came over and they are now either on the sofa, on the floor or simply sitting by the window staring at her (also) brand new 60″ LCD TV. Everyone is intent on watching the sci-fi movie playing on the small screen.

Meanwhile, Janice and two of her friends are in the kitchen preparing for something to eat and drink for everyone.

What happened?!?

Her skin had a severe rash breakout and it took all she can not to scream out loud when she looked in the mirror. She forgot to use the best make up remover and now she’s suffering for it. Too bad. It’s her skin and it’s the investment she has in her job. She can’t afford to let this go on so her only recourse is to consult a skin doctor about it.

Oh, she’s trying not to panic. She has no project at the moment because she just finished the spread for a lifestyle magazine where she modeled. But she has to do something about her skin breakout because her agency might call her for a new project soon.

Your own hero

I believe this.

I do think that sometimes we have to be our own hero. We can’t keep on depending on others for things to happen to our lives. We need to take over and do it ourselves. That’s how it should be. Otherwise, we will end up disappointed and bitter in our old age.

Don’t you think?

Professional planner

If you ask me, I think the couple needs an event coordinator at EventSolutions.com. A professional planner. Not a relative or a friend who can only devote so much time to preparing for their big day. They need someone who will do it 24/7 from today until the end of their wedding! They need someone who will commit to it 100%.

That’s why I was baffled by their decision to let one of their friends plan their wedding for them. That person has a nine to five job and three kids to take care of. It’s not that I was belittling the effort of the person but I know that she wouldn’t be able to commit to the preparations unlike a professional planner whose job is solely to plan the event.

So they heeded my advice after three months wasted on halfhearted efforts. Sigh.

A zombie outbreak!

I think zombies are “in” these days, don’t you think? What with the resurgence of movies and TV shows focusing on it. And then there’s Dead Island an xbox 360 game that takes players in an island adventure.

I know that most of my cousins are computer game and xbox 360 players. I am sure that when I tell them about this new game, they will be interested about it. My brother alone who loves The Dead Walking will surely be attracted to a game like this.

Zombies are “in”, I tell you! You should go check out stuff about them on the net and you will know what I’m talking about.

As the fishes are…

Whenever I visit my loved ones’ grave, I am reminded of those times when every little thing in our lives was so harder than it is now. When there’s always little left for the other stuff. When we were left to ask help from relatives and friends all the time. I hated that time!

But just as the fishes are, I tended to adapt and just leave everything to the passing of time. And it all passed. I would like to think we are all in a better place now.
