Young children, most especially, should never be denied that right.

My niece recently gave birth to a baby boy. Since this is her first baby, she decided to splurge on baby stuff. She bought a round crib, a fancy stroller and a lot of designer baby clothes. She also bought expensive baby bottles, a playpen, a sterilizer and a bassinet. She showed us her nursery a few weeks before giving birth so for her baby shower, I gave her a round crib bedding in blue and white.

It was difficult at first to look for a round crib bedding. Round cribs are not that common. Most cribs come in rectangular shapes. The round crib however seems to be more in vogue these days since anything that evokes vintage is now suddenly in fashion. I hope she uses most of the stuff she bought, first time parents can sometimes go overboard with their expenses. I should know, I had three different baby carriers and I did not get to use any of them.

I’m one of those people who likes to read at night before going to bed. I need a bright lamp that will enable me to read my book clearly no matter how dark it is. When I moved into a new apartment last year, the landlady told me that I would have to take the place furnished. I did not mind since I had very few stuff anyways. In my bedroom there was a tiffany style floor lamp. I checked if it was bright enough and I was happy to see that it was.

The tiffany style floor lamp was placed right beside the bed. It was perfect. It had colorful shells and some charms. I could also change the bulb to a higher watt if I wanted it to be brighter. On my first night, I finished reading a new mystery novel. On my second night, my boyfriend came over and since he’s a crossword puzzle addict, he used my lamp to finish his puzzle that night. On the third night, my boyfriend said he wanted to buy a tiffany style floor lamp as well for his bedroom.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is the biggest producer of petroleum. However, the Middle East deserts are no longer the prime source of petroleum. Continuous dependence to fuel of different industries has prompted oil companies to explore the middle of the ocean for oil, energy, or gas. Most major oil companies that used to be reliant to land sources are now putting up offshore platforms or off shore facilities. Offshore facilities can be found in the Gulf of Mexico, Brazil, and Asia Pacific countries like the Philippines.

Offshore facilities boast off a highly technical working environment. Electricity is 24/7 since offshore generator installation is readily available. Working in offshore facilities has become popular among engineers and other technical workers today. Besides the prestige that goes with it, attractive remunerations and fringe benefits awaits hired employees. Common trade offs though are the hazards on the job and long period of separation from families.

My husband and I were both very busy with work. We hardly had time for each other because I would get home late from work and he would leave very early in the morning. So for our anniversary this year we decided to take a few days off and go out of town for the weekend. We found a cozy inn facing the lake where we could stay.

As I packed for our trip, I bought a soy candle, some new lingerie and massage oils. I preferred a soy candle over other scented candles because they are organic and environment friendly.

Furnishing a baby girl room will probably be one of the most enjoyable projects that you will embark on. It is as if you are decorating for yourself, if only you had the chance to do it as a baby. Personally, I’d prefer a baby girl’s room to be a bit shabby chic. I’d put in a lot of whites with patterns that mimic early fabric designs. Floral designs in pink, salmon or peach will be my choice.

The blankets and sheets will be of the same colors. I will incorporate soft lace on the baby girl bedding; the kind that are made of cotton so it will not irritate the baby’s skin. They will, in fact, become softer the more you wash them. This will be the kind of room that I will have if I had my way as a baby. I hope this new baby will like it as much as I do.
