NJ Civil Surgeon

On the day after our wedding, Me and hubby went to see a Civil Surgeon for my medical requirement/ I-693 completion. We found one nearby our place and there we met Dr. Jaroslaw Pondo, MD of  Rutherford, NJ. He did asked me few questions about my medical history. By the way, i brought with me the CD X-Ray and vaccines records, the ones that is given to me by St. Luke's Med as my personal copy. Dr. Pondo reviewed my records and told us that all vaccines were met but I still need to do CBD test since I don't remember if I have done it before. He also extracted blood sample for some additional testing (forgot whats the term). It was done quick. On Wednesday Sept. 14, we went back to the office to get the result and thanks God was negative and there's no need for me to undergo X-Ray because the bumps of CBD test is 4mm (law requires to undergo an X-Ray 5mm and up)We paid $175 total. Yay! we got our sealed I-693 already. Over all it was a nice experience and we're happy we met a nice Civil Surgeon, to those who are interested and in need here's his ofc contact # (201) 896-0050 .

Bye Bye Single Life

So finally, I am officially Mrs. Benis now. I arrived here in the USA last Aug 11, 2011 on a K-1 Visa. We got married on Sept 11, 2011 at 2pm (exactly 1 month from the date of my arrival). I know, I know 9/11 is one of the worst tragedies in history.  Well, for me great things happen on that date and one of those is my wedding. It is the most special day of my life filled with love and fulfilment, that finally I am legally married to my one and only man of my life. Hmmm plus a bonus, right after the ceremony we got our Marriage Certificate on hand.Great! we need not to wait it be mailed to us. Now, I am living happily together with my husband. Praying to Almighty God to blessed and guide our new journey together. Life is awesome!

Weather weather lang yan

I'm excited to experience the different weather conditions here in the United States. It was summer when I arrived here, mid August. Days gone fast and I am looking forward to see trees transformed its color from green to red and brown as fall season comes in a couple or a week from now. In fact, I can feel the cold breeze already. I dunno how would I feel when Winter comes though, aside from feelin' cold. Ha ha! But I don't worry, I think it would be nice as long as I am completely geared up with nice warm clothes and boots. So, Winter please be gentle and don't worry we will take lots of picture together. He he!

nice color isn't it? :)

upon staring in this pic i feel cold lol!

PNOY's (SONA)State of the Nation Address 2011

I watched PNOY SONA via live streaming of ANC today 4pm. I am the type of person that interests in economy and politics lots especially when it comes to our  beloved country Philippines. I was impressed how Pres. Noynoy delivered his speech, He has so much more confidence and authority when speaking publicly, compared to a year ago. He showed confidence in every words he spoken and the choice of words He used are quite simple, hence, for this reason I shall have to say that every Juan could perfectly understand without doubting what PNOY is referring to. Thus, it makes Him a good public speaker plus He has not have any paper in hand to look at during his one hour SONA. Seriously, I don't see any reason why would a Phil. SONA be in English where in fact it's not our National Language. For me, the simpler, the better. Well it's not the only reason why I like His speech. I like it because it's substantial, I like the plans I hear about corruption, education, transport, and environment. Also, knowing that we had 4 upgrades from the World credit Company is a big factor. These are only few of good things He accomplished for a year.


I know In spite of all the positive outcome of PNOY's first year in service, there would always be lots of Criticisms. In this SONA proves the saying " Damned if you do and damned if you don't" well this applies to everybody regardless who you are in the society. I just wish there would be miracle for all the Crocs in the Government to grow their conscience magically, for sure our country will rise faster.


I hope and pray that every Filipino will cooperate rather than keep complaining and blaming anybody for in the end it still us the Filipino Citizens who will reap what we sow. We need to unify not to divide! Godbless Pilipinas and it's people!

Bonding moment

I had a good time with my bezy and new girlfriends the other day. We watched transformers: Dark of the Moon  and I should say it was awesome! It's special effects — and 3D shots — are undeniably impressive! For me it's worth the pay plus Shia LaBeouf is charming. We liked the movie and it was such a nice bonding moment with my friends too.

Avoiding & Controlling Negative Emotions

Some of my ways in controlling towards negative emotions particularly when you're annoyed.

• Ignore the person as if S/he doesn't exists lol. If s/he is talking in front of you make an excuse like : you need to you go to washroom, you need to make a call urgent, you need to go while no heavy traffic yet etc. etc.
• Drink a glass of water, this may help you cool down.
• Do funny thoughts (this really helps for me haha!)
• Think positive, no matter what, s/he will stop talking when get tired.
• Don't argue, this will make the conversation long. Let him/her do the talking just smile if you still can mange, if can't show a tired facial expression.
• Lastly, inhale and exhale and say a little prayer to brighten up of you mind.

Try it and feel the difference.
