You're the 1, Goldilocks

......................... MANILA HAPPY TIMES.................JULY 8, 2009......

Manila- As the whole country gears up to combat the menacing AH1N1, another kind of global outbreak is said to set in this quarter. News about the impending contagion surfaced out when a large number of Filipinos are recently experiencing the same kind of reactions that lasts for more than a week: extreme happiness and enduring smiles. Speculations over the cause of the infectivity remain high but experts are firm in pointing out a common denominator: GOLDILOCKS


DOH WARNING: Sample products that causes extreme happiness and enduring smiles.

Experts felt confident with their conclusion when mountains of evidences from interviews and observations proved consistent and valid. Furthermore, people are coming out to attest the veracity behind the "Goldilocks syndrome" by sharing their own stories through their personal blogs. Take the story of phaelun for example:

THE STORY OF PHAELUN

Goldilocks has always brought wonderful memories to mind. Whenever I think of my Goldilocks moments, I can't help but smile because an event so ordinary always turns into something unforgettable. Just like this one time when I turned 16.

Birthdays have never been a big thing in my family. For us, it is just like any ordinary day except for the fact that the celebrant is a year older and he or she is entitled to feel depress the whole day. As a kid, I never expected of having a birthday party nor did i ever dream of it. So, it was definitely a huge treat for me when my friends threw me a surprise party on my 16th Birthday.

It was not an extravagant party. There were no clowns or entertainment bands. There were no balloons or fancy decorations. There were no caterers or goody booths. There was only a Goldilocks and seven good friends. Yes, it was plain and simple. Plain and simple... yet memorable. It was my most memorable birthday ever because my friends gave me the best and sweetest gift: A GOLDILOCKS CAKE THAT SAYS IT ALL.

It was truly a very special gift because all my friends, despite being broke, chipped in just to get me that cake. They specifically chose a Goldilocks cake because they wanted to give me a personal message (Goldilocks was a pioneer for personal message on cakes during the early days).

Eleven years has past but still I can't help but feel overjoyed whenever I think of that day. I may not have an expensive birthday party or birthday gift but i had the most unforgettable birthday feeling... with the help of a Goldilocks cake.

Indeed, there are some things in life that can make common occasions truly remarkable and magical. For me, you're the 1 Goldilocks, because the message that goes along with your presence is extraordinary.

Painful feeling after an OJ??

Have you ever had an OJ? Don’t be shy now… Well, if you are just like most people around the world, then your answer is probably a yes. Surveys have shown that OJ is one of the most favorite fluid juices people would like to swallow and that gazillion ounces of OJs are consumed each day.

There is no doubt that OJ has become a worldwide phenomenon. Regardless of culture, race, age, gender, and socio-economic status, people in general take great pleasure in having an OJ. Some may like it with ice and some may not. Some prefer to have it early in the morning while others like it better at noon. But whatever style and time it is served, people just can’t seem to get enough of it. Come on now, seriously, what guy doesn’t want an OJ? And, from what I heard, even girls enjoy OJs.

But do you know there are some things that don’t go well with OJs, and one of which is teeth! Yes, when having an OJ, be very sure to check on your teeth because if there is one thing that maybe painful after having an OJ, it’s probably your teeth.

If you, like me, have sensitive teeth then you might have experienced or noticed a painful feeling when brushing your teeth after having an Orange Juice. So why is this so? What causes the painful feeling?

According to a medical pamphlet that I read, our teeth have microscopic tubes leading from the nerves inside to the surface. Each time we brush our teeth, the tubes are clogged so we don’t feel so sensitive. However, the acid in the Orange Juice does the opposite. Hence, it is advisable to refrain from brushing right after consuming Orange Juice or other foods or drinks high in acid.
