I really couldn’t stand seeing any live creepy critters (even just a cockroach!) — most especially the deadly ones — in the zoo, museum, or anywhere else. But not Nong Na! This Thai Scorpion Queen, Kanchana Ketkaew, who is also a Guinness World Record holder loves it when she’s around some thousands of huge poisonous […]

Spending hours in a fashion mall today looking for that special holiday gift I wish to give my best friend really did produce fulfilling results. It’s actually been my tradition of surprising her with branded make-up kits or any kinds of beauty products every New Year. This year’s more special and since beauty is more […]

My sister wrote on Globalbusinesspoint.net a brief but very helpful background information about coffee production and her passion for the beverage. Being a die hard coffee lover, she did some research works about its production as well while continuing to savor its richness and aroma. Christmas is the perfect time to give presents to special […]

Powerful magnets saved me big bucks! I love late night shopping. It gives me the freedom to be myself — to enjoy the sight of assorted groceries and other fresh food products — without having to wait for long at the payment counter. Shopping after a long day’s work can be extremely costly, if not […]

During the 1997 financial crunch, Asian economies were hit terribly hard and businesses suffered a heavy toll resulting in pre-mature Chapter 11 declaration by some while forcing the others to embrace insolvency. This year’s economic recession is also slowly putting many businesses at risk. Debt collection teams of most companies start to put pressure on […]

Yes, we see lots of sparkling lights during Christmas and New Year’s and I guess it’s in this joyous, festive season that we see more twinkling, bubbly and colorful lights everywhere — inside and out. But you don’t need a hanging or wall Sea Gull Lancaster lantern just for Christmas; you’ll need it to adorn […]

Why do I love Christmastime and hate it at the same time? I love Christmastime so much as it is a worldwide tradition of Christian families to get together, share joys, wishes and blessings, as well as exchange or give presents to the ones we love. Yet, I hate it because there’ll be abundance of […]

Have you ever been bugged down by a super-slow processing computer? Well, I happen to own one computer fully loaded with various programs, data, music videos, images, games, songs, and movies. You can only imagine how miserable I was whenever I try to connect to the internet or work on an important project or urgent […]

No one argues that Christmas is the season of love and gift-giving. I already played Santa last week by sharing some inspiring words and giving presents to both mom and dad. Yehey, I feel safe now! But ooppsss…I almost forgot that my sister has been asking for comprehensive NCLEX review materials. Well, it’s always good […]

Friends asked me how will I spend my Christmas and New Year holidays. Honestly, I wanted to go to South Korea or Singapore but my passport renewal wouldn’t be completed in time. The long holidays keep some businesses and embassies closed till early next year and so I am left with no other option but […]

Recession Is Coming To Town
I
You’d better watch out
You’d better not cry
You’d better keep cash
I’m telling you why:
Recession is coming to town.
II
It’s hitting you once
It’s hitting you twice
It doesn’t care if you’ve been careful and wise
Recession is coming to town
III
It’s worthless if you’ve got shares
It’s worthless if you’ve got bonds
It’s safe when you’ve got cash in […]

Recently, I’ve seen that my sister has never been any busier in her life since she came. If she’s not picking on me to dig myself down into the drawers, wardrobes and traveling bags for my digital camera, she wouldn’t stop abusing my mobile phone with her downloaded photos, videos and songs. She’s not a […]

It was in Las Vegas that the legendary world boxing champion Manny Pacquiao severely battered and cruised in a lopsided victory over the equally famous boxing icon Oscar De La Hoya. I’ve never been to Las Vegas — I wish was there to witness the dream fight — but my imagination of this Classic Vegas […]

Watching important events like ATP Tennis Tours or live Broadway musical “Cinderella” calls for special preparations. If you can’t get a VIP ticket or if you can only afford one in the general patronage sections, then better carry binoculars with you so you can at least take a closer look at the athletes’ or participants’ […]

Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao of the Philippines has once again proved to the world that he’s more than just a professional boxer — he’s the real fighter — beating the much larger-built, bigger arm reach, more famous, most sensational, and the most marketable Mexican-American boxer Oscar De La Hoya in just 8 rounds. De La […]

I’m still unsure if I would watch the boxing fight between Manny Pacquiao and Oscar de la Hoya — I already got some butterflies in my stomach! To fight with de la Hoya, Pacquiao had to pump up, put on more weight to level up with him, and so much preparations had to be done. […]
