This Bucket List is inspired by Peraholic and the movie 100.
In few days we will enter a new year. I pray that 2013 will be my breakthrough year (and yours too). And I will fulfill my dreams one at a time... Because life is all about experience . :)...

My Brief Prophetic Autobiography (Revised)

My God will fully supply whatever you need, in accord with his glorious riches in Christ Jesus - Philippians 4:19
This is my last year of being a twenty something. At my age, one of the things that I have learned to accept about life is this "Change is inevitable." Three years ago, I had a post...

I just have to say this...
It is so disheartening to be convinced that there are many people who are saying that they are in need of financial aid
and have a braveheart to ask others for help. But when it’s payback time, the
courage disappears and would not even care to explain. Courage could save trust but cowardliness could destroy credibility...even relationship. Gratitude, that is....

Pressing the Fast Forward Button

Last week I
visited the blog of a well-known inspirational speaker, Francis Kong. He had a post entitled From the
Past to the Future. He is, to some extent, challenging his readers to write
his future. It is not easy to forget our past because we are fond of
continuously...

My First Movie Review: 100

It was a late
Saturday night. Just when I thought of pressing the off button in the remote
control, Mylene Dizon appeared in the boob tube in a silent scene. Few minutes
later, she was joined by Eugene Domingo. I got nailed in the couch, instantly.
This is not drama. It’s comedy. And it's not...

Magnenegosyo ako. Ows?!

Business is not for everybody. This is a short but thought
provoking statement from the speaker in one business-related seminar that I
attended. Among the many essential matters that he shared, it was that simple message
that had the biggest impact in my memory. I agreed, instantly. Evidently,...

Fiesta sa Pinas, Iba!

Last week, my friend and I had a short vacation in Quezon
Province in anticipation of the Feast of San Isidro Labrador or more popularly
known as the Pahiyas Festival. From Cubao we boarded Lucena Lines in the morning
of May 13. For almost four hour straight, my friend and I were just talking
non-stop...

A Short Story of an Impatient Juvenile

When my laptop crashed last month, my
network visibility narrowed. With limited time and internet access, I was
visiting my stock market account just to see if my target price has been
reached or my sell orders were already cancelled. Just to be sure that I won’t
miss my target price, whenever...
I'm in Love with Mustiola's

I first saw Mustiola's in Pop Talk, a Lifestyle show in GMA
News TV. It was a food trip episode in Quezon Province. Among the three restaurants that were featured,
it was Mustiola's that caught my attention the most. It was a carinderia serving typical
local dishes in a Spanish inspired old...

Why Filipinos are not Investing in the Stock Market?

One night my uncle and I were stuck in a heavy traffic. Running
out of stories to share, our topic arrived at the possibility of investing in
the stock market. He asked me a number of questions such as “Ano ba ang
produkto nyan?,“ “Paano yan ibebenta?,” “Kanino yan iaalok?” etc. Though apprehensive,
I...

The Courtship Was Over

Seven months have passed I can still vividly recall how
elated and terrified I was when I attended Citiseconline’s seminar, Investing in the Stock Market Today. I was already in Tektite more than an hour before the
schedule. Hesitant to be the first participant to sign on the attendance sheet,
I...

Investing in the Stock Market Simplified

For many years, SM North EDSA was sensational - a
huge household name for shopaholics particularly for Quezon City residents.
When Triangle North of Manila or more popularly known as TriNoma opened in
2007, SM North has started vying for the number one spot. Last week I was
stunned to find out that...

A Shopping Date with Big John

Valentine’s Day is near. For the proprietors of restaurants
and hotels, it’s a time of joy, a time of feast, a time to make money! For
couples and families it’s the time of the year that we creatively express our affection
to those we love. For third year and graduating high school students, it’s...

Himig ng Pag-ibig!
Yeng Constantino’s interview by VJ Chino of MYX a couple of
days ago, stirred my interest in her and
her music. Her creativity is just amazing. The profoundness of her lyrics
is just as deep as her true self. In this age where revivals are dominating,the
more I appreciate original music. More importantly if it has substance. And I
think Yeng’s music has it. No doubt, she deserves all the success....

The Future of The Pasig River

Biyaheng Timog Silangan was an interesting backpacking trilogy of Sandra Aguinaldo in GMA’s most awarded documentary program, i-Witness. Sandra travelled Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam with a shoestring $100 budget or Php4,600 for each country. One interesting highlight is Thailand’s Loy...

Looking Ahead with Thirst for Change (Part I)

2008 was a historical year for me.
The preparation for the Christmas season started as early as January. I would
fill more than twenty ang paos (that Chinese traditional red envelope for good luck as they say) with crispy 20 or 50 Peso bills until a target
amount is reached. It was a self-imposed...

Not Really Made Different

“Kakaiba ka talaga” was a common comment by my college friends. I wasn't so sure if it was meant as a compliment
or whatever. All I know is that I have always been the type of person who acts
accordingly. I am who I am. I do what I want to do. I say what is running in my head. But admittedly, there...

Crab Mentality No More (Please)

Do you know a person who gets so
envious when friends or relatives have achieved something great in their
lifetime, like a college classmate who used to cheat is now managing a popular
fast food chain or a son of an ordinary mechanic is now an engineer? I bet, “Buti
pa sya” is their favorite expression....

A Roller Coaster Ride

My 2011 was
like a roller coaster ride. In the beginning the wheels rolled in a straight
direction. Suddenly, it went bullish then bearish, with wild twists and turns. That
goes the same with my emotions, it was erratic. It was such an adventure that
tested my faith once again. Roller coaster is obviously...
