When and what occasion to hire a lawyer?

I don't really like the to idea of hiring a lawyer for a reason that you must have money in order to do so. It's expensive to hire one. But if the case requires you to have a knowledge on a specific law and I feel that its very complicated, I would definitely get one. For my visa, we didn't hire a lawyer because there are instructions on what you need and what needs to be done. But if it's a criminal case or any other case that I don't have any idea how it works I will hire one.

Criminal case for me is very complicated and one mistake and you are done. You might go to prison and that's the worst thing that can happen. And also for divorce. I've read somewhere that it's best to hire a lawyer because there are things that you don't know that a divorce lawyer knows which can also saves you a headache but what they said is you offer to do some task like photocopying the papers or some work so you will only be paying the lawyer for the technical aspect.
There are law firms out there who offers free for initial consultation like for example the Wheeler, Montgomery, Sleight & Boyd PLLC. They offer a free initial consultation. For more information you can visit them here: Vancouver Law.

Bride Wars Movie

Photos courtesy of 20th Century Fox
Just finished watching this movie online and I just love it. With Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway? What can you expect? This is about two bestfriend who dreams to be a June bride and a Plaza wedding since they where kids. But Thier wedding planner made a mistake and scheduled the weddings at the same day. This is where the story goes so funny and sad. No one is willing to moved thier weddding date and two bestfriend became enemy and will do anything to ruin one's wedding. But in the end love and true friendship wins. It only proves that no matter what true friends will always stay in your heart and in you life.

Sinulog 2009 - Grandest and most Colorful Festival in Cebu

Sinulog is the most anticipated event in Cebu Philippines. It is the grandest and most colorful Festival in Cebu and I am sorry to miss it. It is a month of fun and excitement as every night different bands from all over the country visit Cebu and play their best. It is a 9 days celebration in honor of Sto. NiƱo and it always ended on the third Sunday of January. There is always a religious parade (or prosisyon) on Saturday and followed by the a grand parade on Sunday. The Sinulog Grand Parade is a must event to see where contingents from various cities and provinces come to compete with a very colorful costume and dancing to the rhythm of drums and some music instruments.

Everybody was always excited for Sinulog. I am one of them, but this year was not able to attend. All I can do is read and watch some clips in YouTube. It was always fun to see people so excited and happy even if you have to walk all the way because all the jeepney is full or the street is "NO ENTRY". If you still did not experience Sinulog, I suggest you do it next year.

When is enough, is enough?

Been talking with my friend. She have a boyfriend that thinks he can get any girl he wants. They've been together for a year but this guy still seeing some other girl. I told my friend to let go and move on. All I can hear is yes I will. Then the next time we talk the same old story. It seems that she can't make up her mind and I sometimes had enough. I already said all the things that I know can make her realize that she is way more better of without that guy. I know sometimes I hurt her but I want her to hear the truth. The next thing I know she is with the same guy and spent the Christmas and New Year. Before New year, the guy made her went to their friends house a couple of hours away from the hotel that he is staying and meet some of his "girl friends". And my friend knows about this. And she is still talking with him. I just don't understand. Sorry about his rambling. I want to let it out in my mind.

Its Been Awhile

Wow! Its been awhile since my last post! Been busy lately and by the time I am in front of my blog I got soooo lazy. A lot has been going on lately. I started an online store, we went to look for a small space for our items to sale, maybe a small space that will ask for a small monthly rent. But everything is so expensive. We found one store that will let us rent one case to display our items. The rent is $50.00 a month plus 10% of what you sold. We're thinking that $50.00 is a good price but with the 10%? I don't know about that. We are still going to talk about this and think hard before doing it. Just hope we can find a good deal. As of now I am just going to upload more items in our online store.

How is your Christmas?

How is your Christmas? I always heard this question countless of times. Everybody wants to know. What did you got or what did Santa gave you? Christmas here and in the Philippines is very different. People just slept and don't even get at 12:00 Midnight. In the Philippines we always celebrate Christmas with joy, fireworks and food together with family and friends. I been waiting for a fireworks but nothing happen and people are seems to be snoring hehehe. I my self went to bed at 12:30 AM, but hey at least I've waited. Then when I woke up I got somethings from Santa. I was really happy when I see that Santa gave me a Sunbeam Heated Blanket/Throw. I really need one since it is getting very cold everyday. I also got a watch, chocolates and etc. Christmas is different here but its still Christmas. We had breakfast and we went to my mother in-law for dinner. We still had fun, I still had fun. Now, I'm looking forward for the New Year and thinking what it will bring.

Christmas Cookies

Christmas cookie and fun. Yesterday was fun. I was with my sister in-law's house and we made some cookies. It's my first time in their house but it feels good. Both daughter (courtney and Kate) and one son (Brad) was at the house and they are just goofy but in a good way goofy. It reminds me of my mother and brothers. When all of us (my two brother and me) was home, we always kid around and we ended up chasing each other and using our mother as a shield which ended up my mother shouting to make us stop. But it was fun and I missed them.

By the way, we made 3 different cookies. A Peanut Butter Cookies, Oatmeal Raisin Cookies and Mexican Wedding Cake. We are having fun while making a mess in the kitchen. The results are cookies made out of fun and of course love.
we just put chocolate in some of the mexican wedding cake
