Why letterhead is important

Letterhead is one of the important factor that create a first impression of your business  or  a shadow of a person. This is the identity of the said company or a person that people recognize immediately when they receive a letter.   Today, you can create your own letterhead or you can use your fingertips in a second  and you're ready to go. One of the website that I found  a letterhead printing online that allows you to order in online in two ways. First is you can upload your complete artwork or you can design your own letterhead on their website.

Looking your own design for a letterhead is kinda  hard but a proper research and inspiration of what do you want would guide you to have a perfect letterhead.With your own letterhead and logo the customers/persons would easily to  remember.

World of Coca-Cola is located in downtown,121 Baker St NW  Atlanta, GA 30313. During our tour , one of our favourite exhibit is "Taste it" where they have  than 60 beverage choices from around the world.

Summer Camp

As you know, schools closed during summer in US unlike  other country where summer is there school days. Most of the  schools closed from  June and the kids usually go back to school around September. Isn't that good for the kids, right? meaning they have a long break and most parents are not happy considering some kids are going nuts without doing anything while they're on a school break.

Being a new mom, I decided to find things for my daughter during the school break,or else I get nuts everyday to think what should I do just  to entertain her. I find this  Teen Camps where you can surf any activities for your kids.

Heater Pool

As you know we have pool in our home today, but it's so sad we have an outdoor pool so we can't use when the season starts to cold or autumn to spring. We got a lot of use during summer and we really love it. How I wish we have an  pool inside our house so can enjoy swimming even it is winter or cold outside. 

I  talk to hubby if ever we will buy a house if we can afford to have a pool inside our house and buy like the raypak pool heaters so we can enjoy all year round and no need to worry about the cold weather. Is it that a good idea right? As of now my daughter and I enjoying our bath tub time where she can play in the water.

What is your retirement plan?

What is your retirement plan? Hubby and I talking about our retirement plan and our daughter's college. This is our serious discussion most of the time. We're planning  for our retirement but we don't know when we have to start so one thing I've been doing lately is surfing and more and it was interesting to know their history.

As of now am not sure yet, what is our retirement plan and what should we do. As of now I wanted to retire in my hometown when my daughter's finish  college. For my daughter's College am not sure yet considering we are not sure were we going to settle down. 

Why we need helmets?

Helmets is important to all of us whether we are riding our bikes, motorcycle, sled and skiing. The main reason why we need helmets is for our head protection in-case if we fall during these kind of activities. Remember it only takes a second when we hit our head and have a brain damage.

Most of the helmets are design to protect our head from the impact if in-case of accidents may occur during our motorcycle. That's why most of the State it is a law to wear a helmet even when we just riding our bicycle.

Some helmets are very cool and you could choose a lot of designs, it depends how much you want to spend.

Is silver a good investment?

Investing something for our future is one of the important things we could done in our lives. There are a lot things to save for rainy days.


Investing silver-is one of the low risk if you want to save money for rainy days. When the recession hit in our Country a lot of people are selling their gold and silver in-exchange of money to have food in their plate or some are their emergency funds. Considering I worked before in gold/silver businesses I know how to checked and how important to have money in hands with our own convenience without borrowing to other people. I told my hubby before that if he has extra money he needs to buy gold/silver in-terms of savings and not just saves all our money in one mutual funds and need to be diversified all the savings for the future. If we have a spare money we usually find some website but be careful buying online and always check if it is reliable website and their return policy for your own safety.

Why I like backpack?

Backpack is one of my favourite style when I do hiking, traveling or going in tour. It's easy for me to have one backpack rather than a shoulder bag. I remember when I was in grade school I used to have backpack.


Today, backpack is my carrying bag where ever I go even in a short trip or carrying my camera. I have couple of backpack but I can't get enough buying when I see a great deal.I am eyeing some in north face back packs.I'm just glad I found purple one considering it is on of my favourite colour.

How about you? what do you like most and what is your style in terms of bags?

Looking for good stereo stands

After we sold our house, and moved to another State, we don't bring all our furniture because of all the cost of transporting appliances to another State is not worth.


Though, we bring all the things we needed especially my daughter's stuff and as you know most of our stuffs are only for my daughter. Husband and I decided to buy new things in our house rather than dragging all the furniture in our old house. After we settle down in our new home we immediately look for  standsandmounts stereo stands. 

I was kinda excited for our moving considering I could choose and helped out my hubby in choosing what we needed inside our house.

First-Time Cruisers: What to Expect

There is no doubt that going on a cruise for the first time is very exciting, but despite everything you might have read from your cruise line operator, do you really know what to expect? The guide below is intended to help first-time cruise passengers know what to expect from their cruise ship.

Boarding the boat:
When you arrive at the cruise terminal and are ready to embark, the process you will encounter is much the same as in an airport (X-ray scanners, bag checking, etc.). When you go through the check-in process you will usually be provided with some sort of identification card. This will be used by you to make on-board purchases. In some cases, the card also acts as your on-board identification and the key to your cabin. This is one card you definitely do not want to lose! The most popular UK port for cruises to depart from is Southampton - to find great deals on cruises from Southampton.


Accommodation:
The accommodation on board cruise ships is not renowned for its spacious qualities unless you have booked a state room or some other equally luxurious and expensive accommodation. What you can expect from standard cruise ship accommodation is either twin beds or twins that convert into a double, as well as an en suite bathroom and plenty of storage. After all, many cruises last for longer than a fortnight, so you will need somewhere to store all those clothes. If you pay extra you will be able to benefit from a cabin with a sea view, rather than having an inside cabin with no view.

Eating and drinking:

Most cruise ships feature several restaurants that offer a huge amount choice for eating in the evenings. Tables in any of these will either be allocated to you and your party or you will need to make reservations. This is something to check with the operator. As well as these, there will be buffets available throughout the day and evening in various places on board the ship and these will usually be indicated on your on-board map. The vast amount of food on offer is included in the price of your voyage; however, you will also want to drink on board and this is where the card you were given on embarkation will come into play. Alcohol on board is an additional cost and can be charged to your account. Most ships do, however, serve non-alcoholic and hot drinks free of charge.


Leisure and entertainment:
As well as eating and drinking there are plenty of other things to do on board. During the day you will find many organised leisure activities, such as fitness and dance classes. Alternatively, you can do your own thing, such as swimming in one of your ship's pools, playing golf or having a spa treatment. If you have children there will be plenty to keep them entertained too. Once you have had your dinner, you may want to enjoy the evening entertainment. This can range from participatory ballroom dancing to discos and casinos.

Although one of the benefits of going on a cruise for your holiday is that you get to see many different places on one trip, if you are a first-time cruise passenger then life on board the ship can prove just as exciting as visits to shore. You may find on that first holiday you do very little off the boat, but this just sets you up for all those cruise holidays to come.

What is a carpet cutter?

Carpet cutter is a devises that used to cut the carpet during the installation to make sure to get the exact design of it.

We usually have a carpet in our whole house considering we live in the Northern part and helps to warm our feet during winter, basically I like walking in the carpet barefoot than the floor. Last time, we change our carpet and we just ask hired people to install our carpet for us.

The problem of hiring to install your carpet if you're not around is the quality of the job has done. Having a husband who is handy and a perfectionist in-terms of the quality of the job has  done  would not fit in his taste especially if his not around during the installation. Instead of calling them and asking to re-do the job, hubby taking care of it. Though he has no tools for carpet cutter so he told me to research some carpet cutter and I found this website  carpet cutter from MartorUSA.com. 

Looking for Goggles

Looking for goggles? If you are looking for goggles or sunglasses there are lot to choose nowadays? One thing to consider is the quality when buying stuff. When I was looking for gadgets I came across the  Native goggles and sunglasses.They're pretty awesome and had some choices from polarized to pali polarized.Isn't that cool? Aside from protection your eyes it's more fashionable that people want it.
For me, I like to buy both gadgets that offers high quality and fashion. I guess this two words are important in buying the latest gadgets.

Discover the beauty of Fragrant Garden

 We went to Savannah, Georgia last year with my Parent-in-law during Thanksgiving week. As we roam around in Forsyth Park, we discovered the beauty of Fragrant Garden. I can't stop my self but amazed how they taking care the garden, all the flowers are blooming on autumn and they plant some plants as well.I know some of you knows that I love to capture,so here are some of the beautiful shots I took.

6 Ways to simplify your air travel

 The more you simplify your  air travel the more it get easier and enjoyable. After booking for many years, I've began to understand what I want to do to make my booking easier and faster without stressing myself. Having a kid, traveling is not fun that's what all people think,oops, they're wrong,if you now how to simplify your air travel its more fun with kids.

Flying is like a rose

 4 Ways to simplify your  air travel:

1. Book advance- Most airlines or travel agency are happy if you  booked  in advance. And some airlines have a zonal route pass, and have a maximum flexibility and choose your flights. Is it that great to take advantage of booking early and allowed to change your flights-I saw this website when I was looking a UK flights from Easter Airways .

2. Baggage/Luggage- All airlines have different fees in baggage/luggage.It is important you know all the  restriction or else you will end up paying a ridiculous amount of the luggage. You have to consider what are the things you can bring on board and check-in, so you don't waste your time during the baggage check-in process.

3.Travel documents- all your travel documents must keep on handy, like passports,visas,and flight information.Contact number is important as well, to keep it on hand, you never know what will happen and when you needed.

4.Punctual-This is  true in all things.Mostly if you travel by air, you need to be there at least 2 hours before your flight especially if you go international flight.Don't be like my friend she missed her flight every time she goes home in her hometown. 

5.Travel forecast- One of the important factor when traveling. Always check the status of your flight, so you have an idea what's going on.

6. Outfit- Dress properly and remember ladies you're  not going to the  party nor the beach and friend's house for a sleep over. 

Do you have any ideas how to find ways to simplify your air travel?
