I’m happy to see old faces, friends and classmates. Every five years, my Alma Mater in High School conducts a Grand Alumni Homecoming. This activity and effort allows us former students of St. Catherine of Siena Academy to be together again and remember the years that we had fun, learned, loved, gave our teachers headaches and pride, and prepared us to become what we are right now. Every ...
Want to make egg pies? No oven, no baking pans. We don’t have an oven. This is the reason why I always look for alternative ways to bake and experiment on baked goodies. My first recipe attempt was Lasagna. I will tackle the recipe in a different article soon. I want to share my recent discovery on how to make egg pies even if you only have an oven toaster and leche flan pans (llanera). The following are the ingredients: Crust: 4 cups all-purpose flour 6 Tbsp sugar 1 tsp fine ...
I am overwhelmed by my everyday encounters with fellow virtual entrepreneurs. I am learning the tricks, ups and downs of becoming one with just joining every group that I see on different social media platforms. As of this time, I struggle a lot because I know that my skills are not enough to become established in this field. There are moments that I doubted myself if I can continue searching for the right formula to become a good Virtual Assistant/SEO Expert/Web Designer/Web Developer/Online Entrepreneur. I ...
I often feel this way whenever I have interviews. Especially an hour or two before the actual time. Why? Is it because I am not prepared or I am not comfortable with my conversational skills? Maybe or maybe not. I know that it is not just me who goes through the same situation. I think it is normal for a person to be nervous at some point. Even if you are the best applicant and have numerous accomplishments under your sleeves. A few hours before and until the moment you face an interviewer, ...
If there is one kakanin or dessert that I like the most, it is Espasol. It is a cylindrical-shaped rice cake which originated from the province of Laguna. It is made of toasted glutinous rice flour, coconut milk and sweetened coconut strips, dusted with toasted rice flour. I used to ask friends and colleagues to buy me some when they go to Laguna. Nowadays, I order from a local delicacy ...
In my quest for an investment and savings plan that can help me properly manage my finances now and in the future, I joined a local multi-purpose cooperative. This is not my first time to be involved in such a group. I totally removed the negative connotation of cooperatives in my system as “magulo” (riotous) and only involves “utang” (credit or loan). I treat it now as a way of saving money. My investment or share is what they call “untouchable money”. This is because, you cannot use your money ...
Who remembers Piko, Tumbang Preso, Harangan Tubig and Luksong Tinik? I bet those born in the 70's or 80's will say yes. I really miss playing those games and I wish I could still at my age. The energy and excitement makes me want to turn back the time. Laughter and sweat are the results of doing those kinds of activities plus the chance to mingle with friends and siblings. Interaction allows every child to develop their social skills and physical health benefits from those games. Slowly every year, ...
In the Philippines, if you need to process papers regarding land titles, most likely you will hire someone to do it for you though it will cost you a lot of money compared to doing it on your own. The payment is not just for the expenses incurred like the transportation, fees and sad to say; bribe to make the process expedited but also the hassles you will encounter from going back and ...
