Tennis is my game. To me, it’s a vehicle for personal improvement—physically, mentally, and emotionally—and in promoting a strong bonding in one’s social network. We play sports because we hope to benefit from them—apart from good health—we expect improved skills and agility. Same is true with investing. We invest in order to gain. That’s the […]

Most people rejoice when it’s a holiday or a weekend just like today because they can already relax, spend time with family, run errands, or go for some entertainment activities such as playing sports, watching a movie, or playing internet games. I personally prefer to stay at home on Saturdays watching movies or tv shows, […]

The joining together of two people in wedlock is called a marriage. Husband and wife profess their love and commitment toward each other, and promise to live a happy and devoted life together forever. How nice and sweet this sounds.

Has anyone ever realized that the physical working environment has a great impact on our psyche? Our working environment should be comfortable, well-lighted, cozy, clean, comfortably cool, well-organized, and should also support performance. Workplaces should offer enough space for employees to perform their tasks and that clutters must be reduced.
Small, congested work areas discourage […]

It’s unbelievable but it’s true. Fish are able to count up to 4. Are you with me? Pythagoras, Euler and Fermat might be among the top geniuses in their times due to their super mathematical abilities. Fish are now catching up with humans. Their numerical ability is on a par with that of monkeys, dolphins, […]

Travel here, travel there, travel anywhere—you’ll never get enough of traveling to places that you love the most especially if the trip was planned way ahead of time—very smoothly and professionally.

Handmade jewelry means so differently as it is usually more precious and creates a unique sentimental value or personal attachment to many. Handcrafted jewelry has that kind of aura, touch and passion that most people would choose over those machine-made accessories. It is a true product of an artistic and diligent hand, so, handmade jewelry […]

Can you play chess? I was both lucky and unlucky to be in the same class of mighty chess players in our school. Each time we had inter-departmental, inter-school, and even district and regional games, 3 of my classmates would be among the contenders. They played great chess during our high school […]

The web sites of Philippine Regulations Commission (PRC) and Philippine Daily Inquirer (PDI) were in no way accessible early this afternoon. I couldn’t access any of them at all and that could be because hundreds and thousands of people were trying to get into the sites all at the same time for the breaking […]

If you think you are not busy enough (or aren’t making money enough!), consider this: own, build and manage your own web site. This idea could be fun and strenuous at the same time. It just depends on how you see or deal with it. To me, I’m always having fun managing […]

Blessings are the things we take for granted.
Each holiday we notice what we see.
Most know the Earth is utterly enchanted,
Yet walk through life and love mechanically.
Valuing one’s gifts takes resolution,
After days and nights of fantasy.
Love brings the sweet relief of absolution,
Enveloping our hesitance in need.
No touch inspires so swift a revolution,
Transforming all the hieroglyphs we […]

Apart from poor nutrition and lack of exercise, lack of sleep also affects the condition of our skin. We know this very well and I’m not yet even a living disciple to this! Everyone wants to have a good skin; fair, radiant-looking and unblemished. This is only possible with proper diet, exercise, good rest, […]

6. Today, a majority of the top ten U.S. Call Center firms in the U.S. have set up operations in the Philippines. This is one area in which I believe we are the best in the world in terms of value for money.
7. America Online (AOL) has 1,000 people in Clark answering 90% of AOL’s […]

One email I received today was from a good friend that was already circulated all over the globe. It’s a kind of word-of-mouth marketing strategy that I’m going to apply here, so, I’m posting the content here for my Filipino viewers to read. Check this out!
The following was written by INTEL General Manager Robin […]

Late to office, 11.02.08, 9:10 a.m., already feeling too sleepy at this early! My adorable niece and sisters in the Philippines, Thailand, and the U.S. again had our regular conference audio-video-text chatting session last night (morning or dawn! not sure how to say it). That’s one big problem you face when you and […]

Early Sunday morning trips to the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) in Pathumthani, Thailand is a regular, scheduled routine. It is where I hear mass each Sunday morning and hang on to friends’ company from morning till afternoon, mostly passing the time at the HBO/TV Room, Cafeteria, or swimming pool. The waiting is […]
