I love my country the Philippines but it doesn’t mean I don’t admire other countries. For example, I admire how information is available in the US; you can check almost everything online. If you want to get auto insurance quotes from companies, you can immediately request it online because most businesses are already online. If you want to continue to study in the comfort of your home, online courses from colleges and universities can be taken too. If you want to shop, then you can get it online also.

Anyway, how I wish the Philippines will be like that too in the next few years. It would really be awesome to have all information you need at the comfort of your own home.

One thing I admire in this generation is the ability to create almost anything to give solution to whatever problems. Just lately I discovered a new must-have for families with children that have allergies. They call it allergy bedding. It is a bed cover that lessens the chances of the person laying on it from being in contact with dust mites and other allergens that comes from mattresses. The kind of bedding is sometimes called healthy bedding.

As for me, it would be comfortable to have such bedding knowing that these dreadful dust mites are far from your skin. It would be nice for my children too since they have asthma.

By the way, do you want such beddings too?

When my father travelled from Manila to Cagayan de Oro, he chooses to ride a passenger vessel that will pass by our city so that he could leave us some packages. So when the day came, we went to the pier to meet him. When he arrived at the pier, he immediately went down to hand as over his packages. After that, he went back to the passenger vessel because he can’t leave his belongings unattended at his deck.

After he left us, we immediately went home and opened the goodies. We were so amazed that he brought a lot of things with him, not to mention he used a plastic cabinet as a container for all of them. Anyway, most of the contents where household things and bed covers. Aside from these things, he included two (2) used golf balls for my children to pay with and some angel figurines.

The experience of getting packages by that manner was quite astonishing. My father was able to save big time from freight expenses. We only paid for the motor cab and the porter to carry the plastic cabinet from the passenger vessel down to the pier which by the way is minimal. Indeed it was a great savings for us!!

I really wanted to have a health plan like Blue Cross Blue Shield North Carolina for the family. I want to be ready in case any member of our family needs medical help. I don’t want to be found in a situation that I couldn’t do anything because of having no money to medically help my love ones.

We might not have one like Blue Cross Blue Shield North Carolina here but I am hoping to find something similar. Being ready for the family in case of emergency must be my top priority!

Anyway, do you know a health plan good for a family’s need? Care to share?
