Silly Hat Party

This year, the company celebrated an early December occasion with a Silly Hat theme. Employees must wear silly hats partnered with their outfit, or else, you can still enter the MOA SMX venue. (go rule breakers!)

Take a glimpse of the happenings.

Darna, ito ang Bato

Every town has something that makes it known for, may it be its food, place or anything that is distinctive. Well, for tourists or anyone who wants to accomplish another challege on their foods-to-eat list, why not try pancit bato.

Couple it with sinapot, then you will realize you really are in the place of Uragons!

Beware of Dogs (and Cats)

Putting a warning sign outside your house is one effective way to remind people that you have (aggressive) pets inside so let house owner/s know first that you are waiting outside. I'm just so happy and proud when I saw this outside our house. My brother made this and everything on the signage is perfectly expressed!

Eyes on Me



The reason I had my eyes checked by a doctor weeks ago was because of the slight blurred vision I experienced that time. Based from the result, my eyes both have grade but still low so I prefer not wearing eyeglasses.

And now I am experiencing a kuliti! Grrr, I learned you must let that come out but mine is enjoying its stay grrrr again.

Saving Up for Rainy Days


Living independently teaches a lot in our daily life. Since you find ways to support yourself mainly in financial matters, you learn to value every cent.

You'll eventually get accustomed to "Kuya discount naman jan!", "Ay kala ko P20 lang kilo hindi P22... cge na P20 nalang.", "Buy 1 take 1 ba yan?", "Kelan kayo magsasale? Balik nalang ako.", "Alin kaya mas marami sa dalawang 1 kilong bigas na 'to?", "Sa'n kaya nakakakuha ng home access card para sa NFA rice?", "Del Monte or Bonus? BONUS!"

Alright, I need to compute my gross income minus liabilities minus expenses minus tax minus tax minus tax minus VAT to yield my net profit!

Money in a Whoosh


There are a lot of ways to send and receive money online. But there are also a lot of scams occupying the cyberspace. You can hardly trust and even hardly try to use money transfers online since we are talking about "money" here. Additionally, selecting the lower or lowest transaction charge is a factor.

Here's a thing, it was my first time to receive my paycheck from my part-time job employer using xoom. All I can say is xoom processes the money transfer fast and with no hassle even though they have a low and reasonable service fee.

Here's the screen-shot of my transaction from xoom.


If you are looking for another convenient way to send money and let the recipient receive it either by delivery to home/office or by depositing to his/her bank account, you better try xoom. You'll never worry sending money even on holidays!

Mareng Kayod Parang Si Daimos Din

The Philippine literature is rich with a plethora of memorable characters, heroes, heroine and even villains. Who would not recognize Kapitan Pinoy, Kapitan Bilang, Pulgaso, Pupung, Dodeng Daga (as insisted by my benefactor), Yosi Kadiri (again as insisted by my benefactor and her unexplainable fondness of TV mascots), and others who graced the pages of our "komiks", children's books, radio and TV shows. Now, another character is worming her way into the Philippine household, powered by the financial and corporate backing of Philippines’ biggest electric company – Meralco. Nothing can stand in the way of… Mareng Kayod!






Oh wait, don’t forget Michelin! My favorite tire Mascot who reminds me of my hubby!

Go with the Flo


Do you know Flo? An ordinary employee that was fed up about the everyday stress in the office. Then one day, her fairy appeared before her and Flo's wish to start her own restaurant came true. She left the company and started her own diner.

Diner Dash is a PC or PSP game for player with quick eyes, quick fingers, and quick mathematical skill. Any idea about cooking is hilariously not important. You just need to manage the customers and everything that can let you earn money to achieve the alloted goal amount.

Flo also has her sole employee, the ever devoted chef. The rest of the tasks are performed by Flo like getting, queuing, and distributing customers' orders, providing free drinks and snacks, acquiring payments, bringing baby chair, mopping the floor, cleaning the tables, and entertaining the customers waiting in line. I wonder if she really likes this kind of stress than office stress.

Anyways, here are some screenshots that I am proud of.




It took me 2 days to finish the last stage of 2nd restaurant then able to see the 3rd resto. I thought you just need to let all the customers wait and eat without letting anyone crash their patience. But in fact, seating arrangement is a big factor.

Try to play this game. I believe it's pretty addictive. Flo has five restaurants by the way. Hope developers will create more in the future.

Boinkify Best Viewed on Firefox

I hate when the arrangement of images, texts and others are not appearing the way I wanted to. As the title says, Boinkify is best viewed using Firefox.

Nothing's new, IE is not user-friendly tsk!

Brakes Broke Up

Just when you shuffle game cards, nobody knows who will be your next teammates and which will be your next team. Brace yourself! (it doesn't matter though) It's another team reshuffling in a blow!


Though I normally converse to the carefully selected individuals (haha), there's something I would miss from the whole team.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Original Brakes' Notes, I know there's something special in our line-up :) Thanks for the laughs, under wraps, and your raps Noel R. Bautista! (He wanted me to mention his full name! arrrgh!) Thanks for the coke, under wraps again, and your shared stories ate Myds!

Queen Paranoia: Strike 2


After a lot of health threats the world over, nobody wants to be another victim of a communicable disease or virus - this time the swine flu or A(H1N1) if you want to say it in a more witty or technical way.

Actually, I also got paranoid when someone's sneezing, not feeling well, coughing and even people who just look like sad or exhausted.

Good thing the company health insurance will be able to provide us with the flu vaccine!

They said early this month. Faster please! I'm paranoid even when I only have headache for a moment.

When Goodbye is Not That Good


Alright, I know most of us already knew about the abrupt valediction of the original and incomparable moonwalker. Honestly, it is heartbreaking to accept that the promised final concert series are just words from the past now.

While watching the news about the sudden loss of one of the music industry legends, I was teary eyed for seconds, really.

Though songs of him are known by the massive public, there are two songs that I personally like, aside from others.


Heal the World: I always heard this in our karaoke during my childhood times. I believe it was playing on tape.




Scream: I used to listen to this in my first 5 months in the company. You will already have the idea why I like this song for some time in the workplace when you know Scream's chorus.

At Long Last






I'm not sure if I saw the snippet of these upcoming movies as early as last year. They're like forever featured in the trailers.

Good thing the official showing is sooner and surer.
