New venture
Someone I know will be starting a graphics web site very, very soon. She has been thinking about sharing her love of computer graphics but then she made sure that her computer memory can hold the amount of work that she’ll be getting into. I know for a fact that her old desktop might not [...]
Scary!
The Swine flu is really scary. So many universities in the country have reported confirmed cases of the deadly flu. Because of this pandemic, my friend who is an insurance agent told me that they have been getting a number of requests for a term life quote. People are definitely scared of this flu. Well, [...]
Preparing for a feast
Thank goodness for barcode scanners! My aunts and I went grocery shopping last Friday and it took us four carts of grocery items for the feast my aunt will prepare this coming week. Imagine how long it would take us if we went to a grocery store with no barcode scanner… it’d probably take us [...]
RT & WW – Make a wish
Puffy eyes
Have you ever felt like you just closed your eyes and opened it hours later without even sleeping at all? I mean, it just felt like you just closed your eyes for hours. It happened to me last night. I went to bed before midnight, with the intention of waking up at dawn to start [...]
Great travel agent
A travel agent I know called me up to tell me that should I need a travel insurance quote, I should just give her a call. This is the same travel agent that I’ve worked with a previous company and recommended her to every employer I worked for from then on. She was one of [...]
Monday Musings #20
I need to live like that crooked tree–… that knelt down in the hardest winds but could not be blasted away. – Edward Hirsch The bounce in your step has become a plod. Climbing stairs feels like summiting Mount Everest. Your brain’s mired in fog. Whatever your personal energy crisis might be, it’s time to [...]
Only human
I got to talk to an old college buddy of mine last night. It was one of the best chats we ever had! She’s recently been promoted at work and is now a junior executive. Wow! We reminisced about college life (again!), talked about past working experience, caught up with what’s new with our lives [...]
An online university
My friend has been checking out online college courses for a week now. She is thinking of taking up her masters in business administration. And her reason is for career advancement. Most of her colleagues are now climbing up the corporate ladder and she’s the only one left behind. She wants to add to her [...]
Misery loves company.
I remember a blogger-friend telling me about this blogger who is always sarcastic in her blog, would even demand that before anyone leaves a comment, should know about her rules, has nothing positive to say in her blog and is plain rude to everyone. I gave her the benefit of the doubt. Anyway, we are [...]
Missed out
I started working really early. It was my way of helping the family, especially since I have younger siblings being sent to school that time as well. But you know, working early can have a negative impact in you. I mean, speaking for myself, I got burnt out really early. Ten years in the corporate [...]
Personal time: Take a walk
Take a little walk. Try to see something new in your usual surroundings like how many different types of trees there are in that area. Whatever you start thinking about, make sure it is positive. Walking alone can help clear your mind. I’ve been doing this in the past and it really helped in those [...]
Unique opportunities
Some people are interested to know about unique investment opportunities. Like rare coins. I know of someone who really goes out of his way to find these opportunities to invest in something that will give him a big return of investment. Of course, he knows the risk. He might encounter unscrupulous sellers along the way. [...]
Monday Musings #19
The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. – Unknown Exactly. I have seen persons with little luxury in life yet are genuinely happy with their lot. And I know a person who has so much but has never known [...]
