Everyone is counting the days before Christmas. I’m also doing that, but apart from that I’m also counting the days before wifey’s birthday. It also falls on the month of December; which makes it a double celebration. But, I can’t celebrate the two events simultaneously because wifey will surely feel bad. We have to make a birthday celebration besides Christmas is weeks away from her birthday.

This year may be the first year I will be receiving salary from my profession. In such case, I want to make her birthday more special by giving wonderful tulips from ProFlowers. Instead of rose, I prefer tulips for a change. I always use rose for a long time to be on the safe side though it still puts a smile on her face. This time I wonder what her expression would be like after receiving deluxe hugs and kisses with 12 gourmet dipped strawberries. Anyway, my only goal is to make her happy and feel special. With those goodies and flowers, I’m sure I can achieve such.

The temperature outside is really getting cold. I really need to do something fast before the winter arrived. Wifey and I still don’t have jackets in our closets. We didn’t know winter exists here until recently. We thought it would be arid hot whole year round. So, we are surprised learning about the winter because we are unprepared.

But, it’s good to know there wouldn’t be any snow fall. The temperature will just drop maximum of 3°C (37°F). Even if that is the case, 3°C is still cold enough to give us chills. So, we really need some warmth, comfort and protection, which can be given by columbia jackets. It’s one of our preferred brands in terms of outdoor gear because they have a great outdoor product line that caters to different weather conditions.

Well, I just hope our financial blessings will come before winter hits. We might find ourselves chilling while waiting for the bus.

Julius, who is currently a waiter in one of the government offices here, is planning to go home to finish a hospitality course. Though he is still unsure what specific course to take, he is certain to enter this industry. Due to financial problems, he was forced to work abroad to support the family. After two years of working, he was able to save some money to reenter school.

If I were him, I would proceed culinary arts and become a chef in the future. He cooks very well, which is why I conclude he has the gift of taste. After mastering the art of cooking, he can then apply to Banquet Chef Jobs. I’m confident he will be able to succeed in this field. But, it’s still his choice besides it’s his life.

According to the recent news, Toyota has extended production cuts at its factories in Thailand and Japan due to shortage of parts in the wake of floods in Thailand. The company said production in Thailand will remain suspended, while Japanese units will work at reduced capacity until 12 November. The move is a latest setback for Toyota, which is still trying to recover from the earthquake and tsunami in Japan earlier this year.

Toyota is the world’s biggest carmaker. The company said that production in Japan “will be adjusted based on an ongoing assessment of the parts supply situation at each individual production line”.

The floods have dented Toyota’s production numbers. Amiko Tomita, a spokeswoman for Toyota, told the BBC that suspension of production in Thailand was expected to resulted in the loss of 69,000 units between 10 October and 5 November. At the same time, output at Japanese factories is projected to be down by 22,000 units between 24 October and 5 November.

To make matters worse, the company warned that if the situation in Thailand does not improve, it may have to cut production in other countries including, the US, Canada, South Africa and Philippines starting next week. “A decision on production from 14 November onward will be made based on an assessment of the situation as it develops,” the company said.

Early this morning, I woke up with the noises my roommates are making. They wouldn’t know if I’m awake or not because of the curtain I put. I overheard them talking about the pool party invitation they received. It just so happen the four of them works for the same company so they are all invited. Unfortunately, the three of us aren’t part of it; me, wifey and bro.

It would be better if we too have an invitation like that. I feel like counting myself in, especially when I heard about having pool heat pump. Swimming and relaxing in hot or warm water is perfect for the cold I’m feeling; thanks to our strange AC unit. But, I can’t do that not until they will invite me, hopefully they will. If ever, I will surely attend and enjoy myself.
