Raids or PVP? Focus on alt or not? Gear up for what? I’m sleepy, I’ll wait for tomorrow.

Living in the Bay Area has it’s perks and has it’s hazards too. Remember the great quake that almost destroyed San Francisco a hundred years ago? Yep, this is an active seismic area. Today, there was a 4.0 earthquake, a baby in regards to scale. Experts say we’re in for a big one. That does scare me. Here’s a tally of how many quakes I’ve experienced in the Bay Area.

Berkeley - 3
Walnut Creek - 4
San Francisco - 1

That’s a lot in the past 2 years. Although the earthquakes didn’t damage much and there were no casualties, it’s scary to think a big one is inevitable.

This prototype cars are so cute. Especially PIVO, it talks and knows your moods. It sounds cute too. It’s from Nissan.

Another one is Gina, this one is looks like it has personality.

Some say it’s in the genes and some say because they are forced to. Unless it’s rape, then, you’re wrong.

Here are the reasons why men and women cheat

1) Because they can

2) Because they want to

So please, if you have a cheating spouse or partner, these 2 things are easy to remember. Plus, let them be accountable for their actions. No, it’s not your fault your partner cheated or cheats on you. They just want to. So either, leave or be really good at forgiving. More power to couples in good marriages, I want you to be my personal role model.

We should legalize divorce in the Philippines especially if married couples make a mockery out of marriage.

Hello dear father,

As you know, I’m not my sister’s parent. So please, stop asking me to talk to her because I chose not to. You asked me why and I answered you honestly. But you said you don’t care, said “Bye” and hung up the phone.

Sorry, you screwed up as a parent, but I’m not going to pick up the slack. You are not part of our issue, so please stay away. I will not parent my sister, she’s 21 and an adult. She is smart, she doesn’t need me to tell her what to do. I know you’re concerned about her, but please stay out of this. You deal with her individually.

Right now, I choose to distance myself emotionally from you. I don’t think you’re worth the pain since that’s all you gave me since my birth. Oh and, you didn’t parent my son, it’s my nanny Christine who took good care of him. And please, do not feel that I owe you my life because you helped me with my son. I know you love him, but do not use him against me. You have no right to hurt anyone.

At this point, you just poured gasoline on fire. You should have stayed away, my sister specifically asked me not to bring anyone to our issue. But you had an unexplained desire to just get into the middle of our issue. Thank you, my day is ruined. Go parent your kid, I’ll parent my kid.

Hold on to your seats people. Here’s the cinematic trailer everyone’s been waiting for. Check out the frost wyrm and a preview of Northrend.

Character creation

I have a friend and she has 3 kids, from 2 different dads. She’s a single-mom, is married but not yet legally separated. Both fathers are not paying a single cent for the kids. Both are what you may say deadbeat dads. She’s working hard at a call center, she gave up finishing from the University of the Philippines to start a family at the age of 18. Unfortunately, her husband cheated on her and the marriage is over. She had another child with boyfriend after the marriage. I’m a godparent t her first born, I wanted to help her out. I can’t support her family, but hey, the dads (sperm donor maybe) are still alive and free from responsibility.

I googled “child support philippines” and stumbled upon a single mother’s blog. And like me, she has a few words to moms who are bearing all the burden and to the deadbeat dads who forgot that their children are their responsibility regardless of who their mother is. As a single mom, I love reading about the strength of these women who have endured hardships because of the irresponsibility of their children’s fathers.

The blogger suggested to get a family lawyer, who could draw up an agreement for child support between the two parties. The mothers can file a civil case or a criminal case against the fathers who refuse to comply. I suggested this to my friend. My friend was afraid that her husband will take away the 2 kids because she had a 3rd child from another man. I told her the only way that her husband can take away custody is if she were an unfit mother. My friend is far from being an unfit mother and should not be afraid to ask child support from both fathers. So maybe next year, we’ll revisit this topic, especially when the kids are red to be in school. School is a big expense, and their fathers should at least pay for their education. This time we’ll get a very good family lawyer for my friend. That’s the least I can do for her kids. This is not for her, this is for her kids.

Does anyone know any good family lawyer in the Philippines? Thanks!

1. Less time for games - let’s face it, a lot of moms out there do not even time to brush their hair. How much more for games. 30 minutes of free time is a luxury to us.

2. Explaining the game to kids - while taking a break, my son approached me while I was playing WoW. It was so hard for me to explain that I’m questing and killing the “good” harmless animals. You’re not supposed to kill good guys. I just wanted to cry. Good thing he stopped asking questions after a minute and left me alone. Next time, I might just not say anything and wait until he’s old enough to understand.

3. Gaming is expensive - if you have a budget, or taking note of finances, you will probably notice that gaming can take out a huge chunk. Plus the HDTV, the consoles, the games that cost $40 each.

4. Choice of games - violent games or games rated Mature are off limits when kids are around. It’s just plain commonsense, don’t even ask why.

5. Monitor kids who play games - monitor your kids, especially the young ones. Just like cartoons, games can be violent, even Mario Kart. So, explain that games are make believe, and magic doesn’t exist.

6. You’re not alone - there are a lot of mommies who are gamers. Those who play with their kids, and play on their spare time. They’re not irresponsible or neglect their kids. They just have a different way of relaxing or entertaining themselves. Just because you don’t watch Sex in the City, doesn’t mean you’re a bad person.

Any other lessons? Feel free to add. Thanks!
