Certified Farm Town Addict!

Facebook's online game Farm Town is such a craze! And I am one of its "farmers". I grew my farm from a really small piece of land to 20x20, and I now have a small house, windmill, farm animals, etc, at level 23. Some of you might not be able to understand what I am talking about. But most of my facebook friends do have a farm on farm town, most of them are on a higher level than I, so I'm sure they can relate when I say that this online game gives me fun fun fun! This is what I do whenever I can,...

Farewell Michael Jackson

I am one of the billion Michael Jackson fans. I enjoyed watching his videos since I was a kid. Though there were videos that I felt too scared to watch (like Thriller), it didn't keep me from being amazed at his energy and his dance moves. Too bad he had to say goodbye before his much awaited comeback in London. I was having breakfast with my husband this morning when I saw the newsflash on TV - stating...

A Day with John C. Maxwell

I was one of the attendees of the John Maxwell Leadership Summit held at the EDSA Shangri-La Hotel last June 23. The hotel's Isla Ballroom was filled with people from various industries, all excited to learn from the world's leadership guru. John began his talk by saying something like, "Hi, I am John, I am your friend.." He told us stories about how he became a leadership guru, his humble beginnings...

Rainy White Rock Outing

The HR Ops, Shared Services and Recruitment team went on a weekend getaway at White Rock in Subic. It was my first time to get soaked in the rain - really heavy rain! And I had fun. Bet we all did. Too bad I left my camera in our room because I was afraid it would get wet too. The food was good too. The entire team obviously did not mind the heavy rain - because we all had a blast. Kudos to Joey and...

Tea and Sympathy

Last Saturday was my 4th session for acupuncture, and I was given herbal tea by my acupuncturist, Sis Regina Liu. The said tea has to be taken an hour after breakfast and an hour after dinner. My theory is that it is supposed to flush out the toxins, which the needles of acupuncture stimulated. Sis Liu is a woman of really few words. Although she also advised me to ask around if there's a woman I...

Almost Famous!

It was just this morning when I decided to post my almost famous moments on Cosmo and Good Housekeeping Magazines. The time-management advice that I sent to GH was chosen for their April 2009 issue. While the photo that I sent which was taken in the streets of Macau was one of the non-chosen ones for Cosmo's "Have Cosmo, Will Travel" feature. Since it was not a winner, it was just printed together...

Mini Get Together

My high school friend, Regina, who is working in Dubai, is in town for a short vacation. She usually treats us for dinner whenever she comes home. Last night was a bit different because the crowd got a bit bigger. The first time we had dinner together, only 3 were present - Anna, Regina and I. The second time, which was last year, Nonie was there, so that makes 4 of us. Last night, Corina was there,...

Nostalgic Moments on FB

Lately, some of my high school-mates, who also happen to be my friends in Facebook, have been posting photos taken back in high school. Because of this, I've been feeling nostalgic (thanks to the bed weather and my flu) for a couple of days already. It's nice to see these pictures, even if I'm not usually part of them, because they bring back memories of a happy past. Memories that remind us that...
