Perilous Kawasaki Disease

I have an 8 month old nephew and yet I feel worried of what I’ve heard about this eccentric disease called “Kawasaki” disease. I have not heard about this kind of disease until I’ve heard about it from my brother. He shared to us that his boss’s son have been infected by the disease and they spent of about Php 500, 000 for their son’s treatment. What I worried much (we worried) because mostly the disease occurred in male babies/male kids.

Kawasaki disease as what I’ve known is one of the most dangerous diseases for male kids. Imagine one of the symptoms it show is the constant fever which takes up to two weeks and could not be responsive to any kind of medicines or normal doses such like ibuprofen and paracetamol. But aside from this, there are still various symptoms of the Kawasaki disease which is no good for the male kid’s condition. However, the most dangerous fact about the disease is when it turns to cardiac complications that could turn to heart attack. It might be too impossible to happen for young male kids, but it could be possible with this kind of disease.

The causes of the disease have been said due to the genetic interaction and at the same time due to the environmental factors that includes infection. However, the precise cause is yet unknown. Until now, the studies about the disease are still going on though there are new discoveries however; still it is not yet clear.

This is really a very shocking and controversial kind of disease. For parents who have male kids with you extra careful for your children are necessary.

What's in September 09, 2009 (09/09/09)

Do you know what date today is? Of course you know its September 9, 2009 or (09/09/09). Today, most of the people coming from the different corners of the world are well prepared of this calendrical anomaly. Special events such like weddings, launching of business to movie studio execs have been celebrating it today. Accordingly, the rarity of the date is not only good in business and special occasions but it also symbolizes the last set of repeating, the last single-digits dates that can be seen again for almost the next century.

Though it has been said that there is nothing special about the date however, some were concerned of its historical meaning. In the other parts of the world relating to the cultures some believed that the number nine gives good luck to them, while for others culture it gives bad warning. The number nine is also known of holding special rank since it associates compassion, success and forgiveness on the positive side while on the negative side it associates self righteousness and arrogance.

For me all numbers has significant meanings and value in every individual’s life. Be it their natal day, anniversary, or wedding anniversary—dates is special because it symbolizes a new beginning and new life. For you, what is your point of view about numbers or dates?

Learning how to drive a bike

It was great! I am learning to drive a motorbike and now I knew how to drive it. It really had a lot of fun! My sister taught me last night, she managed to direct me while she was at my back riding with me as well. Yes it was hard; learning the bike at first especially if someone is riding behind you is hard. You need to keep your balance working. Perhaps, for the first timers like me driving a bike is never easy. There are things that you should keep in your mind. But if you have the determination and you are too optimistic to learn you can do it. I always remembered what my sister was telling me “you need to have a presence of mind” and since I followed whatever she said I learned to drive the bike so fast, without even falling.

Unfortunately, according to my sister I need to have constant practice to master it. Because there are still some techniques that I should have to practice before she would let me drive in the busy roads. She also said “you have to be alert in your surrounding” because driving a bike without proper presence of mind is risky. Now that I learned I would make sure that the next time she would let me drive I could already manage to practice the techniques that she was telling me. It’s really fun and exciting.

Impressive beaches from all over the world

I had been dreaming of spending my vacation in one of the beautiful islands of the world. Daydreaming of those pristine beaches that would tickle my toes and walking on those white glimmering powder like sands. Not until I’d been to one of the Philippines famous tourist’s destinations, Camiguin Island. The Island is famous for its various stunning spots, like the Sunken Cemetery, Threes Marias, the Cold Spring, the Hot Spring, the Katibawasan Falls, the White Island and more.

I love all what I saw, it’s all impressive and really stunning. Yet the White Island is one of my favorite spots, why? Because I love the super clear water and the super white powder like sand that it has. Since I kept on drenching myself to the beach what I got was sunburn. Despite of it still I really enjoy my experienced, together with my workmates.

Now, one of my friends in stumbleupon.com shared to me pictures of the amazing pictures of beaches from the different parts of the world. It was really awesome!!! How I wish someday I could visit one of these beaches. The beaches are really amazing that I could not imagine there are beaches like this which still exist. Here are the pictures my friend shared to me. Totally amazing!!! Enjoy!!!
