What’s Keeping Me Busy

True, writing remains to be my first love but my husband and I have been discussing a lot about my writing career and we have both come to the conclusion that it should be done because I’m passionate about it and not because we need to put bread on our table.
We have depended on my [...]

I Will NEVER Forget My First Love (Which is Writing!)

I recently attended a very empowering business seminar and I am so enthusiastic about being beautiful and about life in general.  I never fall for just about any business opportunity that would come my way but today’s seminar was quite different–it caught my fancy.  I mean, how many companies would include the concept of believing in [...]

Scams Galore: Phising & Text Scams

I recently received this e-mail and I would like everyone to be forewarned and not to fall for these kinds of messages.  Never, ever reply to this kind of e-mail.  The e-mail reads:
Dear Friend,
I sincerely apologize for intruding into your privacy,

The Green Light is On for the Julie Vega Book

Just as Julie Vega’s photograph on the right is slowly fading, so will memories of her if no one would do anything to let the world know that she once existed. 
It’s already 23 years since Julie’s fateful death yet there are still some people who are trying to keep her memory alive.  Just like her [...]

The Two Faces of Customer Service (An Encounter with Jasmin Montano and Gerard Pangilinan)

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO E-MAIL THIS ARTICLE TO YOUR FRIENDS, RELATIVES, COLLEAGUES, etc.
 
On August 29, 2008 my husband met the two faces of customer service.  The unpleasant one showed itself first–fortunately.  I’m saying he’s still fortunate because, at least, the day ended well with the pleasant experience.  This is what I actually mean:

My husband [...]

Bedtime Stories and Your Children

How many parents still tell bedtime stories to their children, honestly?  I mean let’s face it, bedtime stories take up minutes of your precious time as a busy parent. Sometimes, the extra minutes that you should have spent on a nice warm bath still goes to that mommy-and-baby-bonding-time called storytelling. 
I just recently started this practice of [...]

Help! My Baby is Teething…

Isabel turned five last December 2007 yet, for me, she’ll forever be my baby.  This is my daily notion and I was quite surprised to find out that she’s teething so soon!  Her two, central, lower milk teeth (well according to this chart they’re her incisors) are giving way to two, little permanent teeth. 
I’m thinking, ain’t she a [...]

The Greatest Love Stories of Our Time

 
What better love story would there be than LOVE STORY?  This classic film is also a classic tear-jerker as it tells the story of a rich boy who falls in love with a poor girl.  And just when you think all is going well with them, the bomb drops and you have to deal with [...]

A Stone’s Throw Away from My Childhood Dream (The Creation of an E-book)

As early as first grade, I’ve made stick figures with thought clouds just to express all the stories that are bottled in me.  By fifth grade, my uncle has given me a book entitled Tom’s Midnight Garden.  This book spurred gazillions of ideas and from then on, I wrote non-stop.  I was able to produce [...]
