Keeping your gadgets and other thing safe during travel

I just heard that my aunt, who came home a month ago had the karaoke box she bought here broken. It’s very bad. I heard everywhere there were excited but it’s entirely not her fault! Probably, there was a problem with their packaging of the item or with the handling.

It would have been better if we were able to research more on choosing the right packing materials - most of the stuff she took home were fragile. I just don’t know what actually went wrong because her boxes had “FRAGILE” imprinted all over it.

So, needless to say – here’s a lesson to everyone who are planning to travel.

  • Choose a high quality packaging material
  • Make sure the box used are sturdy
  • Make sure you take note of labeling your box as FRAGILE

Aside from that, I think the others are fine. We’ll be in Thailand this August too so I’m taking these reminders myself.

5 Things to Plan for Winter

Summer time, I know. But to ease yourself from the heat – why not move forward and think it’s winter, or maybe plan for it. Time pass by quick , so don’t waste a moment.

During winter time, there’s so much to look forward to. First of all is the birth of Jesus, Christmas, the gifts and the food! But it isn’t really a good idea to rush, you will miss those things you were looking forward to as a result of you think this way.

So, to be prepared start now and outline your plan for winter!

 

1. What will you need most?

Giving yourself so much time to think, you’ll be able to save a lot and get better ideas. Prepare what you mostly will need – the food you and your family will have, the gifts and also clothing. Some even make it a point to get electric fireplaces to their homes while it is still not a commodity (it saves you so much).

 

2. Thrift stores!
Surely, some stores give out information on their upcoming sale and some all through-out the year. And then of course, we know of some special occasions like Black Friday Deals, Cyber Monday and more. This is ideal if you want to spend more on the important things such as…

 

3. The place and places you will stay to
Families gather during Christmas season (winter) – thus it’d be very nice if you find a good place. Let them know about your ideas and this way, getting all things planned up will lessen your hassles in booking to hotels or places to stay in.

 

4. The people who give gifts too…
I know everyone deserves a gift and for sure if you were a millionare, you’d give the extravagant ones to all of the people you know. But, let’s face it – no one can give gifts to everyone! But it really doesn’t hurt because after all, it’s the thought that counts right? In case you can’t give a gift, you can invite them over anyway. So, coming back to the topic – make sure you list down! It might also give you the chance to think of what you can give these people on your gift list.

 

5. Activities to do…
Winter definitely means vacation! Now, other than going outdoors to awesome places – why not think of a fun activity at home on some days. Doing it with your family would even be better!
Winter is yet to come but just think of it, if you make plans strategically – you’ll get the best results not only for you but also for the people you’re going to spend winter with.

Wait what – Youtube service?!

First, there were Paypal scam emails now, I’m getting one of these Youtube service email saying one of my videos in Youtube is on top list of some list whatever that is. Normally, a person would be ecstatic about this but if you would think logically, how on the world if you aren’t even logging in your account for years? First thing to do? Check the given link. In Google Chrome if you hover on a link, you will see the URL/Destination of the website believe it if you see youtube.com

Youtube Service Scam

Youtube Service Scam

In this email, the links go to “http://propetglobal.com/goldstine.html. Not quite sure what the heck of a website is that, probably a phishing website.

This was received on a Yahoo! Mail account too, I hate it that they don’t show the emails of the recipients, or maybe I’m just missing a setup or being a pro Gmail user LOL.

Chances are, if your email is published online (like mine because I need to at times) you’ll be receiving loads of this. Sometimes, I wonder what’s fun in scam emails that they’re fund of sending them – right?

For your safety

I remember hearing that sad news when something went wrong within a construction area near our city – where several people were injured. It was a shock and well, a very big lesson that safety is a must!

If you own a company or something the same that deals with carrying large stuffs like those in construction please be very careful. Anyone can get hurt anytime and it is always best you pay attention to your employees as well. Buy worthy materials, maybe the s hook might even help. It’s better sure, safe than sorry. Well, there goes my little reminder! Advance happy Valentines day :)

Garmin Handheld GPS Units

I’m that person who gets lost easily, and if not, I am very bad with memorizing places – although when I really find a place special I make it a point to have something to make me remember that place. I tend to remember store logos, or establishment logos next to those special places.

I guess a need to do more outdoor trips! But before I do so, I might need a garmin rino 650 canada. There are more garmin handheld gps unit models, and then I will probably ask my uncle for a road trip (I don’t drive, I’ve no car lol)

So much for this, I would really recommend for you guys to have GPS gadgets with you if you like travelling and you’re not good with memorizing places.
