Two days from now and it’s weekend again! Everyone loves the weekend – two full days at the end of a long work week where you get to kick back, relax, have fun, take up a new hobby, etc. If you’re looking for tips on how to make the most of your weekend, this article offers some suggestions.

1. Start your weekend on a Friday. Go out to dinner with friends, see a movie, host a family game night, or just relax by the television at home.

2. Don’t spend the weekend by yourself! You’ll have the most fun when you spend time with your friends and family. The weekend is a great time to catch up with them and go out to socialize and have fun.

3. Participate in sports. Whether it’s cheerleading, basketball, swimming, or golf, you’ll get exercise, see friends, and have fun.

4. Go out to eat. Some fun casual places are pizzerias, barbecue places, or a Chinese restaurant. If you want to go to someplace on the fancier side, then try your local country club or steakhouse.

5. Go some place exotic! Good places to go are the beach, mall, local museum, cultural festival, etc.

Since the government declared June 30 ( tomorrow) as non-working holiday to give way for the inauguration rites of President-elect Benigno Aquino III, workers and students will have one day off from work and school – and that includes me!

So since I wasn’t able to finish my movie marathon last weekend, I guess tomorrow is a perfect day to continue it.

Anyways, here are the list of movies I’m going to watch.

1. Crying Out Love, In The Center Of The World (Japan 2004) – I heard that it is a major tearjerker movie! So I’ll watch it! Lol.

2. Holy Daddy (Korean 2006) - they say it was a very funny and touching movie.

3. Il Mare (Korean 2000) – according to the review that I have read, “The Lake House” was based from this movie. Another touchy movie. I wonder which version is the best.

So there, good luck to me tomorrow! I hope I won’t cry a bucket. Lol!

When you access your bank account online you probably don’t think that at that exact moment there may be a hacker, somewhere in the world, trying to steal your bank information and your money. Despite banks’ efforts to protect accounts from the online crooks, hacker attacks remain a serious threat that cost Americans millions of dollars each year.

Good thing, Bankrate.com share some safety precautions to protect your bank account when accessing online.

• Don’t access your account from a shared computer.

• Be certain your computer has anti-virus, firewall and anti-spyware programs, including security software with automatic updates.

• If you are using wireless service, check the settings on your computer to make sure the connection is encrypted. Don’t connect to your account using a public network, like the ones you find at a coffee shop or at the airport.

• Review your statements regularly and carefully, and report any suspicious activity to your bank immediately.

• Use a strong password with letters and numbers combined. Don’t use the same password for multiple accounts.

• Log out after every session.
