I bought Globe Telecom, Inc.'s newest product Globe...

I was fortunate enough to have spent my last two weeks of 2009 with a vacation in the province. I get to spend more time with my family and friends back at home. The catch is I don’t get to log online most of the time I stayed there.

I first came to know about sport stacking just this year when a fellow Filipino (or Fil-Am) became the world champion in a Speed Stacking competition. I thought it was interesting and I decided to buy a set for my own. Sport stacking is an exciting new sport where you up stack and down stack 12 specially designed cups in predetermined sequences as fast as you can. Just yesterday I got a h...

As I look closer to the mirror I noticed that I can easily see the pores in my face. Maybe because of the pimples that grew in my face from time to time, I am not really sure. I wanted to minimize them and keep a smoother face. But my normal Master facial cleanser only cleans my face, it does not minimize the pores! When I go to 7-Eleven near our place to look for the right product, I fou...

This is our only electric fan in our house back in Cavite, Philippines. With a height of around four feet, it is the only electric fan we have because our place is a high place, near Tagaytay City and it really is a cold place especially this season of the year. There was actually no plan to buy an electric fan but I assume we had no choice but to buy one because of two things. First, it w...

Before using Sun Cellular's Easy Broadband plan, I was using Smart Bro Prepaid Wireless Broadband. I tried using it firstly because this is a product of one of the country's leading telecommunications companies. Definitely I had to try this one.

This is my office calculator. I got this as part of the office supplies I received on my first day of work.

Most of the times at work, we are asked to prepare memos or accomplish different forms that need approvals and signatures of our managers and higher bosses. To lessen the time for them to look for the part of the form where they will sign, it is helpful for them if we “bookmark” the signatory’s area. This is where I find 3M’s Post-it Tape Flags more fitting. All I needed to do is find th...

There are times when I had to submit printed reports to my boss at work but she’s not in her office the moment I get to her room. All I do is leave the printed report on top of her table with a short note posted on the top page of the whole print-out. This is where 3M’s Post-it 3” x 3” notepad becomes very useful. I like its yellow color that whoever passes-by my table easily sees it. Pl...
