Vivien over at Inspirationbit challenges her fellow bloggers to post their ruminations on time management and the value of time. I have to agree that it is a luxury these days. While modern man prides himself in juggling the many demands of work, social life and family, he is faced with the poverty of allocating time for each. And most often what happens is that one concern can only be fulfilled at the expense of sacrificing the other. Ordinary people often complain that they need 25 hours a day to complete their long list of to-dos. Yet we know that even the most ... Continue Reading...
Management for dummies and leadership principles we can live by…
Coming from the raggedy world of journalism, I certainly felt like a sore thumb sticking out when I entered the corporate world six years ago. Whereas being a full-time employee in my dear newspaper meant reporting four hours a day three days a week, the new office expected me to be in 10 hours a day, with only the weekends off. That was certainly too much to ask but admittedly, I was in it for the long term because of the sense of stability it promised me. Never mind if it was a different culture altogether, a culture where the four walls had ears (and eyes!) and ... Continue Reading...
A blogger’s tips on keeping the creativity juices flowing
Bloggers are thinkers, that much is a fact. It takes one to contribute sensibly to the marketplace of vast information and ideas, which the internet has become. But one may ask, how does one blog day in and day out? I can't say for sure.

I guess that when you feel you said everything there is to say in the blank online canvas, things like passion, time ... Continue Reading...
Pico de Loro@Hamilo Coast: still one more reason to settle in the Philippines
Someone like me who's been house-hunting can't help but toy with the idea of living in the great suburbs. Condos and other developments in the heart of Manila are definitely out as an option for me; it makes me cringe that building permits for new high-rises are being issued without regard for urban planning and the over-congestion already taking place. In all possibility, I will be buying a home in the outskirts because I still want my garden, a view of trees and a white picket fence. The suburbs may be a long drive if you work in Manila but it pays to fast-track ... Continue Reading...
Surely you can do this at home – Kopi Roti’s choco milk toast & Indonesian martabak
Kopi Roti Milk Toast One of the good things about dining out is that you get inspired to cook up stuff at home just because of a food you ate and tasted. Take for example Kopi Roti which I never fail to frequent when am at MOA. It has always been my favorite because of their kopi bun and their kopi with milk is the closest thing to my heaven on earth. Their kaya toast has lately been lacking in kaya but it's still good. Recently, Kopi Roti introduced their assorted toasts - namely the classic milk toast and the milk toast with chocolate. It's one of ... Continue Reading...
