Taking Care of Your Pet : Loving and Caring for Them

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Pets are those animals that are very dear to us. Dogs, cats and birds are the common pets that people have. There are reptiles like snakes, lizards etc. that they consider as pet. I guess you have a dog or a cat or a bird in your house. These are pets. Taking care of pets is like taking care of a newborn baby. You must really take care of it to keep them healthy and alive. Like those newborn babies, these pets are also fragile and they acquire diseases easier and faster.

Who doesn't love pets? Some are feared of snakes, that's Ophidiophobia. Some are feared of monkeys, now that's called maimouphobia. There are lots of phobias to animals out there. Phobias occur maybe from accidents or events that something happened with that specific type of animal.

Hey, we're getting off-topic. Lots of people asks, "How to take care of pet". Remember, there's no perfect way in taking care of your pet. But here are some guidelines on how to take care of your pets. THESE MAY HELP YOU!

1, 2, 3 ClICK! Taking pictures is one way of treasuring moments. We took pictures because of several reasons. And some of these are that a sight is beautiful, eye-catching, stunning, spectacular, breathtaking or awesome. Good thing technologies were improved to capture happenings instantly. But there’s this one type of taking pictures of oneself that gets viral through social networking sites. It is what they called “SELFIE”.

It is surprising how people easily embrace the way of taking selfies. I even saw lots of selfie pictures in FB, Instagram and Twitter. People enjoys taking selfie of themselves with various expressions like “fresh from bath”, “Just walk up”, “OOTD (Outfit Of The Day)” , fierce and wacky poses. This way made taking selfie enjoyable. And possibly, the compliments people get from the pictures they posted makes selfie more fun to do.

The photo says it all. No amount of denial could make us believe there's no relationship between the two.

Even after their denial of a romantic relationship between them, Coleen Garcia and Billy Crawford were seen together apparently watching a basketball match between Brooklyn Nets versus Milwaukee Bucks last December 27 at Barclays Arena in New York.

The ABS-CBN It's Showtime hosts were rumored to be dating and the cause of the sensationalized break-up between Billy Crawford and singer/actress Nikki Gil.

Should We Ban Junk Food from School Canteens?

Wazzup Pilipinas!

It's parents' responsibility to feed their children healthy foods. They make sure that the baon for their children is healthy as possible. But because of technology, many instant foods, junk foods and unhealthy foods are freely distributed or being sold. Surprisingly, even school canteens offer it. The question is, Should we ban junk foods from school canteen?

In my opinion, a very big YES! Junk means Cheap, shoddy, or worthless. Would you allow your children eat those worthless chips?

Is it proper for the school to offer them if those food will make their student sick or unhealthy? It's given that junk foods are delicious but the consequences are bigger and more damaging. The nutrients like vitamins and minerals are too less in junk foods while the amount of calories are more. It contains salt and heavy sugar. Both are called white poison in the body. Eating so much of these result in hormonal imbalance, obesity, stunted growth and many diseases.

Those are the bad effects of junk foods so why would the canteens offer them. The students will be affected. Even their study habits will turn bad, more absents because of sickness and slow learning. The government should promote Healthy Living.

HEALTH IS WEALTH!!!

47 Ronin: Heroes. Warriors. Legends.

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Among the best-known tales in Japanese history, the legend of the 47 Ronin and their epic mission to avenge their disgraced master epitomizes the samurai code of honor. It has been said, "To know the story of the 47 Ronin is to know Japan."

Retold through the ages, the legend that previously came to the comics in a meticulously researched and beautifully illustrated miniseries from Mike Richardson, Stan Sakai, and editorial consultant Kazuo Koike, is now also a Hollywood movie starring our favorite The Matrix lead actor.

Recounting this sweeping tale of honor and violence in all its grandeur detailing the tragic incident that would seal the fate of Lord Asano and set forty-seven of his vassals on a years-long path of vengeance!

A Layer for Mayor, a Layer for Governor. Aren’t you tired of rulers with the same surnames? We can see it every weekday night through the tv show Honesto. We know the things that they did from their campaign to their service. Well what can you say about it? It’s a Political Dynasty for sure.

Political Dynasties have their pros but if you will look at it more closely, their cons could cover up their pros. What are some of those cons, you may ask, are the following:

1. A political dynasty can exist as long as it can.
2. A political dynasty can make a family too much powerful.
3. A political dynasty can cause only one family to rule, thus making other parties lose their chance to serve.
4. A political dynasty can engage in corruption.
5. A political dynasty may silence a person who is willing to serve, thus making others to be afraid of competing against them.

Suzie's a normal girl with an extraordinary ability: when she has sex, she stops time. One night she meets John... who has the same gift. And so they do what any other sex-having, time-stopping, couple would do: they rob banks.

John, who until last night thought he could freeze time with his junk. At long last not alone, what kind of horny hijinx will he and Suzie get up to together? What ANY of us would do if having sex stopped the whole world: We'd do crimes.

Jon and Suzie get in too deep way too fast as one little sexy fun party crime begets another and the villains of the piece descend. Turns out Jon and Suzie aren't the only ones after all…

Movies and songs are everywhere. You can download it straight from the internet without even spending a single penny. The reason why they’re within our reach? ...PIRACY! This issue is not new. Authorities tried to put an end to it and get rid of the people behind this crime but it seems like there’s nothing they can do about this.

Let me just call those people behind this as PIRATES. I think Pirates are not even threatened by the punishments and the consequences they may get when the government proved them guilty. They seem to be so confident and brave and proud.

Why did I say so? Because pirated movies and songs are still abundant. They are still everywhere. There are still plenty of websites offering free but pirated copies these. Well, for us consumers, it’s a good thing ‘cause we can watch latest movies and jam with our favorite songs with just a single click. But for others, it’s unfair.

Everything’s going Instant. People nowadays are always in a hurry, going to work, school or any other activities that take place in our everyday life. With the help of technology, companies were able to come up with an easy way to cope up with these situations. They have produced products that are readily available for us consumers.

Advertisements in the television show products which can be cooked or eaten immediately. Examples are Instant noodles, 3-in-one coffees, canned goods, processed meat, etc. These products usually look and taste good, which makes them very demanding.

The production of these said products involve processes that may have changed the quality of these foods. Yes, adding preservatives, artificial flavoring and artificial coloring makes these products more delicious. But shouldn’t we also consider the risk of in taking these chemicals?

Everybody loves eating, especially if your favorite food is the one served on the table. During the holidays, a lot of people gain weight because of the delicious food prepared during Noche Buena and Mega Noche. But what makes our food tasty and delicious?

We consume a lot of fattening foods each day yet we don’t find ways to keep ourselves healthy and active. Because of this we don’t experience only physical problems like getting fat, we also get heart problems, high blood pressure and diabetes.

It’s time to choose the healthier road. We must avoid eating fattening foods. We can still enjoy our favorite foods but with not as much fat, calories and sugar. We don’t have to stop eating fatty foods since they give us energy, we should just control the amount that we eat.

In these days, people need to be practical in their own ways to be able to have a stable life. By having a business, we need to be practical in this matter so that it will be a successful business.

My ideal kind of business is to have and to manage my own company. To start a business, you need to have the strength and the courage to have it. In a business you need to plan what kind of business you will do. You should aim to have success on your business. If you don’t aim to be a successful businessman or businesswoman, it’s better not to have business.

Business is like a game that is very exciting. You have fun in playing but there are times that you need to be serious because you need to have a successful work. You enjoy but still you need to work.

I have great reasons to suspect that my neighbors are time travelers. I truly believe they are from the future. The signs are very significantly revealing to prove that they are indeed from some other time aside from the present. Believe me when I say they are not from this century.

Time travel has fascinated me but never in my lifetime did I think I would see it in real life. Imagine being perplexed and petrified at the same time when I realized my neighbors are not the ordinary and common people in my decent and friendly neighborhood located in a small bliss residence in one of the small cities in the Philippines.

At first I thought they were just eccentric individuals so I minded my own business, but many instances finally accumulated and summed up into an enigmatic conclusion mixed with fear and awe.

Why do I suspect him to be a time traveler? Here are the top ten signs:
