Gold Investment

Generally, the gold, platinum and silver coins that we have on our purses are used as mere purchasing means at their current value to buy commodities. But for some, I'm pertaining to the hobbyists and those who are experts in the investment world, they use these coins as a means to acquire riches and financial security for the for the future. What they do is engage in a buy and sell practice with enormous profits in return. It actually takes a lot of skill, know -ow and persistence for this investment to work. It also needs proper guidance and assistance from the precious metal investment experts like those wise professionals from Monex Deposit Company (MDC). Having been the trusted leader in the industry for nearly 40 years, their gold value (in coins or in bullion forms) are simply the best running rates.

Not Anymore.

I'm pleased to share that I've already recovered from my Facebook game applications addiction. I have blogged about my favorite games that took so much of my time then and reading back, I can't believe that I was so overly hooked to Pet Society, Farm Town, Barn Buddy, Restaurant City, Sushi No Maki, Fish World, Bejewelled Blitz, Waka-waka and a few more before. It was actually the mountain load of online works I had that made me focus and neglected totally those game applications. I guess my main motivation then was that I don't earn from them so might as well give them up. I do miss my characters and pets once in a while and wonder so many things like the new modern sofas and furniture at Pet Society, new trees and new features at Farm Town, new breed of fishes at Fish World and a whole lot more. I refrain from opening any of these games because I'm afraid that I'd get hooked again.

Always Connected To WWW

I have always been an online freak ever since I discovered the internet a few years back. I researched about my projects and assignments over the internet, got fond of emails for connecting with friends, got hooked with online chatting, got dependent in finding our wedding suppliers online for our wedding, developed great interest in digital scrapbooking, the digital kits of which are all downloaded from the internet. And now, I’m so into blogging lately and it has actually been my bread and butter for more than two years now.

Way back, I used to scrimp and depend on very frustratingly slow dial-up connections. I can still recall that I downloaded mp3s for hours and with sites that take about a minute or more before it is fully downloaded. That is why I was so delighted when my Dad subscribed to a broadband internet. Finally, I was able to download a 5 MB song in less than 3 minutes and with web pages loading in just a blink of an eye. Actually, there are a lot of internet providers out there like Qwest high speed Internet offering ultra fast speeds of 1.5, 7, 12 and even 20Mbps - up to 125 times the speed of a 56Kbps dial-up modem. What's even remarkable about them is that they offer quality Qwest phone service apart from the commendable internet service. With these speeds, surfing the net has never been this fast and exciting. The latest big thing that was introduced is the wi-fi (wireless fidelity) technology. Wireless broadband has only been available in hotspots coffee shops, wi-fi cafes and offices before. But now it has also become available for home use at a reasonable price.

As I've mentioned, I never let a day pass without accessing the web and checking my emails. With all of these online activities that I do, I can’t afford to have a very slow or intermittent connection. Luckily, our local DSL provider here in the Philippines very seldom fails me and they are at par with the speed that Qwest provides.

Just a Few Thoughts

If you've been frequenting my home and living blog, you might have noticed that I haven't shared any big improvement or progress about our so-called Mansion project. Well, it is because we haven't completed yet the necessary requirements for the housing loan but the little steps are still on going nevertheless. The husband and I are already discussing a few of the nitty gritty details of the interiors:

- carpet or tile flooring for the living room
- round or square dining table
- zen or rustic type
- blue and brown or blue and green motif for the CR

Honestly, our thoughts may not that be organized yet but it is because we're still taking things and steps at a time. We're not rushing and definitely, we still have lots of time to brainstorm anyway.
