How Health Insurance Leads Generation Works and How to Look Young and Sexy

As I always say, I was not born with silver spoon in my mouth nor a golden one. I was raised by a single parent who, though has proved herself to be hardworking and responsible parent, has been financially challenged for more than 20 years of my existence. So, in an effort to have a bright future for myself and to repay my mom, it has been my goal to save up so that I can put up my own business. I don't see myself working forever in a call center. That would be so unhealthy for me. In fact, my physical therapist has been advising me to quit my job and just stay at home due to my scoliosis problem. But that's not possible at the moment, I am the breadwinner now hence, I should keep working. As most people may have noticed, I have also tried making use of this blog to at least earn a few decent cash through advertising and sponsored posts. And so far, it has helped me a little in taking care of my bills. I don't see any thing wrong with it. Though not yet a lot, but this is a decent way of earning a second income.

And one of my latest online part-time job is helping sales insurance agent increase their sales leads. If you're a sales insurance agent and you badly need help in boosting your sales. You've come to the right blog post. Good news! I know just the right tool for you to increase your cash flow.

And oh, speaking of advertising I know just a very organic yet very effective way of staying young and oh so sexy.

One Nice Day in Inday's Life

I enjoyed this diary of our very own Inday. Di lang ako segurado kung kay Inday talaga tu kasi kala ko magaling si Inday sa Englisan eh. Natanggap ko lang tu thru email. Anyhooo, here it goes:
~~~

It was jazz an ordinary day.

The skies were clear, the birds were chipping. Ang ganda-ganda ng araw!

Nasa SM ako noon at katatapos ko lang mamili ng groceries. Timing naman nasa foodcore si Angel Locsin, nagpro-provoke ng movie nya. Grabe, andaming fans, pull-packed talaga! Dahil fans nya rin ako, nakipila na rin ako.

Then suddenly, out of the loo, may bumulong sa akin ng : “Indaaayyyyy...”

Huh? It sounded like a familiar sound. Who can it be now?

“Dodong!” sigaw ko.

Napalakas yata voice ko. Kasi the other fans turned their backs to their behind at napatingin sa amin. Sabi ko “Sorry, I didn’t mean to be loud and proud.” Hinawakan na lang ni Dodong ang kamay ko at lumayo kami from the crowd.

“Kamusta na Inday? Do you come here open?” tanong nya.

“Bihira lang, Dodong. I’m just droppings by. Ethnic ang schedule ko eh” sabi ko.

Memories came flushing in my mind. How can I forget to remember Dodong? Siya na may mata ni Piolo, dimple ni Aga, at bigote ni Rex Cortez. He’s every woman’s dreamboat. I was just starting my tour of duty kay ate noon nang unang makilala ko si Dodong. Contraction worker siya sa ginagawang bahay sa tapat namin. Naging kami for a while then after that were not an item anymore.

“Tanghali na Inday. What did you say we have lunch together?” tanong ni Dodong.

“I don’t mine” sagot ko.

Sa restaurant, nilapitan kaagad kami ng waiter. “What’s your odor sir?” sabi nung waiter kay Dodong.

“Do you have porkshop?” tanong ni Dodong.

“Yes sir” sabi nito. “Our porkshop with a resistance to the teeth of boast of our chef. Domestic careful selection of pork with little fat of female liking is used. The exquisite cooking which repeated trial and error and was completed. It also has healthy vegetables with salad feeling fully” dagdag pa niya.

“And you mam?” sabay tingin naman sa akin.

Hmmm..mukhang masarap yung porkshop. Pero I’m cutting down on my carbon kaya pinigilan ko.

“I’ll just have water, thanks. Liquidate diet ako eh.”sagot ko.

Pagkatapos kumain, nagyaya si Dodong manood ng sine. Teka teka, this is going too far. Besides, it’s a long, long, way to run.

“Reality chess, Dodong. May asawa na ako, si Jay. As a mother of fact, I’m happily married” pagmamalaki ko.

“Di na pwede yung tulad ng dati. Sorry pero I didn’t expect you still have more feelings than I expected. I don’t want you getting the way. Past is fast. Therefore, cause and defect.” dagdag ko pa.

Tumahimik sya. Parang may language barrel na namagitan sa amin. The seconds that passed seemed like fraternity. Di nagla-on, nagsalita na rin sya.

“I don’t care less!” sigaw ni Dodong.

Shocks, give me a brake! The nerd ng taong ito para sigawan ako! To think it’s his other woman that caused our separation to part.

Kinabahan na ako. I felt speedbumps all over my body and was having panic attach. Tinalikuran ko siya at nagmadali akong lumakad palayo. Pero sumunod pa rin siya like a monkey on my butt. Hanggang sa makakita ako ng security guard. Biglang nawala si Dodong.

“Excuse me kuya, pwedeng magtanong?” sabi ko sa mamang guard.

“Of course miss, I can help you with my pleasure.” sagot niya.

“Saan po ba ang exit? Could you point me to the right erection? I got lost in my eyes.”

“Diretso lang.”sabi niya. “Then turn right anytime with care.”

“Thanks for your corporation” sabi ko.

Buti na lang nandun si kuya. Pero saglit lang, I smell something peachy. As I turned, nakita ko na namang nakasunod si Dodong! Delaying static lang pala kanina ang pag-disappear nya.

“Nyahahaha! You can run but you can hide, Inday. No matter where you go, there you are!” pananakot nya.

Oh no, is this the end? This is too much, I feel degradable. My world started falling afar.

Then suddenly, Jay come from behind! Dodong was caught to the act! In the matter of minute, it’s all over. I’m out of arm’s way.

“Thanks Jay, my love. But how did you.?” bago pa man ako matapos, sabi niya:

“I was in the neighborhood. Fans din ako ni Angel eh. I heard you shout but at first I didn’t give it a thought. Pero nang makita ko kayong magkahawak ng holding hands, then I give it a thought. I know something is a missed.”

From then on, Dodong did not brother me again. In fact, he didn’t even sister me. As in platonic at wala na talaga.

Pero kami ni Jay, heto, shoot sailing pa rin ang relationship. Lalo pa ngayon, open na kami sa isa’t-isa at walang exhibitions. I feel I’m on cloud line.
~~~
I hope you enjoyed reading Inday's diary. ^_^

Monz List of Celebrities with Huge Transformations Part I

It's funny how time can make really huge changes to people even to celebrities who constantly take extra care to their physical appearance. The aging process can indeed make a lot of changes, some turned out good and some are not-so-good. Check out my list Celebrities with Huge Transformations.


1. First on my list is Jake Lloyd. Remember that kid who played as the young Anakin Skywalker in Starwars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace who effortlessly saved the day, winning pod races, dodging lasers, and all while spewing cutesy lines? Yes, that's him now. Maybe he can still throw some cute lines but I'm afraid it wouldn't be that effective as it used to be.

2. Another used-to-be-cute kid on the list is Macaulay Culkin. Funny how a quirkily cute kid like the Home Alone star Culkin has grown up to be a quirkily not-so-cute adult. Oh I heard it must be the pubescent nuptials and a few too many sleepovers at Neverland Ranch.

3. The used-to-be-hot babe Nikki Cox Mohr is an American actress known mostly for her roles on the television series Unhappily Ever After and Las Vegas. Once upon a time Nikki Cox went to the plastic surgeon and was like, “I’d like Restylane injections,” and the surgeon must have gone too proactive that he injected gallons of Restylane to Nikki's lips. On second thought, the photo must be a product of bad photoshop artist and not of bad surgeon. Otherwise, the poor boyfriend would really find it challenging kissing her lips. LOL


4. Before John Travolta starred as a funny fat lady in the musical movie Hairspray, our mothers know that he used to have that dashing debonair appeal.


5. Now who would have thought this Heroes hottie Hayden Panettiere used to play a role as a funny looking nerd ala Ugly Betty? This one is a very good transformation though.

For Girls: How to Catch Mr. Nice Guy

Are you the kind of girl who likes decent boys? Are you worried that Mr. Nice Guy is not attracted to you? Many girls do, even a girl who is good-looking, intelligent and articulate might often feel that catching nice boys is challenging.

As a girl, without demeaning yourself, there are few things that you can do to draw the attention of a decent young man.

- Know your own mind and heart. It is attractive when a girl is able to form opinions of herself. If she knows what she wants to do with her life, that makes her very attractive. As the Bench tag line goes, “Smart is Sexy.”

- Develop respect for others. Just like how girls want to be loved, boys have deep desire to be respected. Interestingly, most decent young men would say that they value respect more than love. Guys like to think that their opinions matter to someone. Thus, acknowledging his good point of view and comments will surely leave a smile in his heart.

- Dress modestly, and maintain good hygiene. The dress and grooming of a girl are loudspeakers that broadcasts your inner thoughts and personality. If your attire is well-arranged and modest, it will send a positive message, but if it is provocative or sloppy, then the message will be negative--you are desperate for attention!


What are major turn-offs for nice guys?

First on the list, flirt girls. If a girl finds ways to touch the arm of every boy she meets or coyly glances at every passing male, then boys will think she is a flirt and that is a major turn-off for boys that are looking for a serious relationship.

Second, those who are clingy. A girlfriend that's too possessive and jealous even to her boyfriend's best buddies - definitely unattractive.

Above all, caring for both your external and inner beauty, will definitely attract the type of young man that you deserve.

Note: The above article is mainly based on personal point of view and some influence of the Awake Journal published by The Watchtower publications.

Mahal Kita Kasi (I Love You, That's Why)


I'm not ashamed to admit it. Melason Fever has also infected me. The kilig-factor is so there!. Nyak! I sound like a high-school already. Haha

And with this cheesy yet funny song full-packed with the cutest and again cheesiest punchlines in Pinoy History, I just can't help but smile and sometimes giggle like a kid with a teenage crush on a school date Haha


Bangin ka ba? Kasi
Nahuhulog na ako sa’yo, naman kasi
Unggoy ka ba? Kasi
Sumasabit ka sa puso ko, naman kasi
Pustiso ka ba? Kasi
You know I can’t smile without you
Pagod na pagod na ako
Maghapon ka na kasing tumatakbo sa isipan ko
Kasi naman kasi

Mahal kita
Bagay tayong dalawa
Papicture nga
Para mapadevelop kita
Hindi tayo tao, hindi rin tayo hayop
Bagay tayo, bagay talaga

Papupulis kita, kasi
Ninakaw mo ang puso ko, naman kasi
Kuto ka ba? Kasi
Palagi ka sa ulo ko
Naman kasi
Apoy ka ba? Kasi
Alab-alab I love you

Magsalbabida ka nga
Kasi baka malunod ka sa pag-ibig ko
Kasi naman kasi

Mahal kita
Bagay tayong dalawa
Papicture nga
Pare mapadevelop kita
Hindi tayo tao, hindi rin tayo hayop
Bagay tayo, bagay talaga

Exam ka ba, kasi
Sasagutin kita agad-agad, naman kasi
Drugs ka ba? Kakaadik ka naman kasi
Kulangot ka ba? You’re really hard to get
Posporo ka ba? E di posporo rin ako
Parang match
Kasi naman kasi
Mahal kita
Bagay tayong dalawa
Papicture nga
Pare madevelop kita

Hindi tayo tao, hindi rin tayo hayop
Bagay tayo, bagay talaga

Pustiso ka nga, kasi
I really really can’t smile without you...

And here's another video of the same song with lyrics. Kudos to Nicole Hyala!

Download Plants VS Zombies For FREE

Another game that's helping me cope up with boredom is Plants VS Zombies.

Plants vs. Zombies is a tower defense video game developed and published by PopCap Games for Windows, Mac OS X and iPhone OS. The game involves a homeowner using many varieties of plants to repel an army of zombies led by the evil "Doctor Zomboss", a giant machine with a mad scientist-like zombie commanding it. The homeowner, along with a neighbor called Crazy Dave, must defend the homeowner's house during day or night, in the front yard and the backyard (2 two-lane strips alongside with one 2 lane strip of water), and even on the roof.
- Source: Wikipedia.org




So basically it's a hilarious arcade game where you need to protect your home from zombies who aim to invade your place and eat out your brains. The game is not bloody at all and quite kid friendly. You just need to place various plants as your armies to protect your home.


To download Plants VS Zombies Full Version for FREE, please click here.

Note: You will be asked to fill-out or answer a very short survey. It usually only takes 1 or 2 minutes before you can download the game.

Disclaimer: I am not hosting the file. Download at your own risk. However, I have tried the link and have downloaded it with no problem.

Enjoy! ^^

Lyrics:

"You And Me"

What day is it? And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

There is never enough time to do everything,
but there is always enough time to do
the most important thing.
- Brian Tracy

'Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all other people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

Time is a companion
that goes with us on a journey.
It reminds us to cherish each moment,
because it will never come again.
What we leave behind is
not as important as
how we have
lived.
- Star Trek: Generations


One of the things that I want to say just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping on words
You've got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

Love vanquishes time.
To lovers, a moment
can be eternity,
eternity can be
the tick of
a clock.
- Mary Parrish


'Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all other people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

There's something about you now
I can't quite figure out
Everything she does is beautiful
Everything she does is right

'Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all other people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you
and me and all other people with nothing to do
Nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all other people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

What day is it?
And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive...

11 Year-Old Girl Gave Birth

Today's Hottest News:
In Northeast of United States, a young girl at the age of 11 has just recently gave birth to a baby boy.



Wow! This has to be the most shocking news I've heard today. I mean, she is not yet even in her teens. But at least thank God, she's fine and the baby is healthy. The very young mom and her family are not being named in order to protect the girl’s privacy.

But what's more disturbing is that the father of the baby is the boyfriend of the girl's mother. In short, her "step-dad". The mother had no idea about her daughter having an affair with her boyfriend. I hope that guy goes to jail!

Dangers of Early Pregnancy

"Her body is clearly not defined for pregnancy with its short stature," Dr. Abdulla Al-Khan, a leading high-risk obstetrician said. "Her chest is not extensively developed for breast tissue, her bones aren’t quite fused, and once you expose a child this young to high amounts of progesterone and especially estrogen, there is controversy that it could halt her growth."

— The pelvis is not defined for natural childbirth;

— The vagina could sustain injury during a natural birth;

— The patient is at high-risk for pre-eclampsia, which is high blood pressure and protein in the urine and could lead to convulsions and/or multi-system organ failure;

— A higher risk of pre-term labor and delivery, which would mean the baby’s size would be compromised, and the baby is at risk for developmental issues, fetal growth restriction and chromosomal abnormalities;

— Higher incidence of stillbirth;

— Higher incidence of cholestasis of pregnancy, a condition where the patient starts itching like crazy, which can lead to stillbirth and placenta issues;

— Chance of fatty liver developing, which could be fatal.


There is growing recognition that teenage pregnancy and early parenthood can lead to poor educational achievement, poor physical and mental health and social isolation. Socio-economic disadvantage can be both a cause and effect of young parenthood. Every year 17 million adolescents become pregnant and give birth, nearly four and a half million young women aged between 15 and 19 undergo unsafe abortions and around 60,000 adolescents die from health problems related to pregnancy. Whilst girls bear the burden of pregnancy and parenthood, young men also need information and education to overcome the problem.
- Kids having Kids

More shocking Triva:

The youngest documented case of a child pregnancy was in 1939 in Lima, Peru, Al-Khan said. Lina Medina was 6-years-old when she became pregnant and gave birth to a baby.
