Honeymoon Destinations


I'll be turning 28 next year! Wow! How time flies…I used to imagine myself getting married at the age of 23…and now, 5 years after my target age, Im still SINGLE! Well,single in a sense that I'm still not married though I already have a fiancĂ©. We talk about marriage once in a while but were not able to really go into deep discussion about it. As of this point having a family of our own and being tied up to each other for the rest of our lives are far from our minds.



But every womans dream is to get married of course! Since childhood we are taught that being a wife should be one of the ultimate goal of each and every woman (besides being a mother)l …just thinking of walking down the aisle, dressed with a fancy wedding gown, seeing envious eyes staring at you as you meet your prince charming in front of the altar is the best experience a girl could have!



And of course after the wedding, its honeymoon! It’s a way newlyweds celebrate their marriage with seclusion and sexual intimacy. Its so special that you opt to celebrate your union in a place secluded and of course romantic (just thinking about this makes me sigh….)

I’ve read an article about wedding and honeymoon destinations and I’ve learned that there are several Hotels in Berlin (translated version: Hotels in Berlin) that are housed in ancient castles and palaces, after reading that, I think that idea is awesome! Imagine, spending the much awaited night, with the most special person, at a place only kings and queens could use….is such an exciting experience! That will just not end there, in Berlin you could find several romantic things to do such as taking a river cruise and explore different historical cities and vineyard, visit old museums and fascinating landmarks and at night you could dine on their fine and exquisite restaurants. If our budget will allows, I will definitely want to spend at least a night in one of those Berlin Castles, then, for the succeeding days, I could just look for different Hotels in Berlin that offers accommodation at a lesser price.


On the same article on the net was I able to know about Vienna as well . If you also want a honeymoon for royalty (I do!), you could go also to Vienna, Austria and visit the most famous Imperial Palace. You could walk through the doors of the imperial State Apartments…the former private apartments of the imperial family which was now open to the public. If you want to experience being a king and a queen even for a day…you could immerse yourself in the daily life of monarch by visiting this monumental site. You could also find several things to do together in Vienna, also known as the world capital of music...it’s the home of the worlds famous operetta and musical composers such as Joseph Haydn ,Franz Schubert, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Ludwig van Beethoven. . I can’t really think of a more romantic way to spend the evening with your better half than attending the opera’s in Vienna.The selection of venues and performers is huge in Vienna, so whatever time of the year you visit it should be possible to attend one or several concerts, especially in churches. There are also concerts and opera performances that are housed in some Hotels in Vienna (translation: Hotels in Vienna), so you might want to ask for a specialized package for that as well once you book your stay. If you want to experience being a royalty on your honeymoon, you might want to consider going to Berlin or Vienna...but do remember that wherever you choose to celebrate your marriage - be it in the most humble place, the best thing you could offer your better half is not measured on how extravagant your honeymoon experience is but how you let her feel that only being with her for the rest of your life is what really matters.

Ol' I want for Christmas is ....


All I want for Christmas is a....new digital camera. Yeah I know I already have one but this time I want the coolest digicam on the market today... I'll buy an All in One device that can be used as a photo camera, video camera or even as a webcam. I intend to buy soon but have no time to go to electronic shops to at least look into the coolest digicam designs available. Good thing I’ve found SAVEBUCKETS! Its a price comparison site which allows you to compare prices on a wide range of products through hundreds of different shops ! If you also want to buy a digital camera , you need to click on that specific category and it will lead you a page that features hundreds of available items in the market along with a short description and price. Click on a specific item of your choice (btw, you could sort the product by name and by price)and it will pull up the product description page that gives you the specification of the item, the price and a link of the shop where you could purchase it. Once you’ve already decided what digital camera to buy, SAVEBUCKETS can direct you to the shop’s website where you could purchase it. Most shops accepts online payment (through debit or credit cards), by phone or by fax. Most Delivery will be made to your home via a suitable method, which is normally by courier.

If you’ve found the perfect item on the list but the price is a little over the budget that you have set aside to buy that product, there’s a portion on the description page that is called MY PRICE that allows you to you to enter your email address and the maximum amount you are prepared to pay for that item – that information would be saved on the websites database. SAVEBUCKETS will then check the prices of that product across all their affiliated shops and will inform you through email once the product has reached or falls below your maximum price then direct you to the shop that offers it! What a great way to save both time and money!



Going to different shops to look for the perfect digital camera is a such burden especially for busy people like me ( its time consuming)…good thing, Ive discovered SAVEBUCKETS – I know through it, I could get the best digital camera -at the price I can afford, at the comfort of my home - in no time!

An Ideal Vacation


A good friend of mine, Ice, asked me a Ms. Universe kind’a question last week…”If you were given a chance to go out of the country – all expenses paid, where would you go and why?” I wasn’t able reply immediately as I feel I need to give it a deep thought first ( I don’t want to lose in a Ms. Universe Pageant just because of a dumb answer, hahaha!)….and now (finally after 3 days!) here’s how I’ll gonna answer it - if given a chance I would like to go to Italy. Why? Because it’s a perfect tourist spot especially for those people who are artistically inclined like me! (is that a joke? lol!)

Seriously, Ive always been fascinated with Italy's ancient history and culture…I want to explore the magic behind its distinctive landmarks. It seems like there’s always something new to discover in that place…a mystery lying in its walls…a story yet to be told…It has been likened to one vast museum and no other country in the world has such a rich heritage of artistic creativity like it.

I specifically want to visit Rome… here you’ll be able to find the famous “the Coliseum” – one of the greatest architectural feats of ancient history . It was here that gladiators met in mortal combat and condemned prisoners fought off hungry lions. This great symbol of eternal Rome still excites the imagination as you'll see from the hordes waiting to get in. Here you’ll also be able to see the Vatican Museum where it features some of the world's greatest masterpieces by artists such as Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and Raphael. Just thinking of being able to see their work of art (with my own eyes) gives me the thrill and excitement I cannot explain.

It seems like you can never run out of things to do in Rome …You could take pictures and throw coins into Trevi Fountain, climb the famous Spanish Steps and later in the evening enjoy a latte in Piazza Navona . furthermore, finding a place to stay is not a problem…you can chose several Rome hotels that offers the best accommodation package that will suit your specific needs and budget.I suggest that while planning your ultimate vacation, surf the internet and search for Italy hotels that will provide you a discount when you reserve months before your actual stay (most hotels does).

I don't know if my dream of having a vacation there will come true in the near future, what I'm certain about is that given the time and resources - I wont hesitate to fly to Italy for an adventure of a lifetime.

Unfortunately, though parents wants the best for their children, not all are gifted with a sharp mind and good memory especially if learning in school is not their cup of tea. Sometimes children who gets low grades losses their self esteem that often leads to depression and anger. Children like that needs help… good thing there are several ways on how parents can help them to catch up in school or even make it to the top of their class - and one of those options is by enrolling them in an online tutoring class. Those kinds of classes offers remote coaching sessions round the clock which means your child doesn’t have to go to a coaching school nor a tutor needs to go to your place at a specific time of the day… talking to a live tutor is just a click away…wherever you want them, as many times as you need them (what a convenient way to learn huh!)


Tutor Vista is the leading online tutoring company in the world, it is even featured in several television programs like NBC Today Show, WSJ, BBC and ABC.

Online tutoring at its finest at the comfort of your own home at a very reasonable price…heads up for Tutor Vista!



Stuck in my PC!

Well, to give you an update on what happened to me last week...well...grabe! I dont know, but lately Im feeling this urge to be always in front of my computer. Is it a disease or something? I'm not sure, but lately talaga...since I had this part time chorva of mine...I feel that no time should be wasted since I need to finish those pending reviews pa. Time is gold (or dollars) ika nga. So my Saturdays and Sundays are spent in my own corner of the house doing nothing but update, review tasks and redesign my blog (hope you like it, its 3 column na! yahoo!)

Well I want to continue sana my that's entertainment chorva kaso Im running out of time...I want to research about it pa para mas maganda...hahaha! (kinakarir!).

I'll just tell you what happened last week...well I actually submitted a letter of request for a lateral transfer sa Convergys Makati site... I think they are open for TSR's for a certain Cable Internet company - ang maganda its a pioneer account which means you'll be included sa first batch that will be trained by the clients themselves. The success or downfall of that account somehow depends upon you (big responsibility huh!) Well, Ive been always thinking of working in Makati coz most of my previous jobs are Ortigas based (for a change lang)...a
nyway, Ive heard from my coach that only 3 TSR's from our account (AT&T) expressed their intention to apply (btw, at&t account is the #1 account of Convergys in the Philippines so she said malaki daw ang chance kung papayagan ng Operations Manager) and that includes me, Rica (my teammate) and another one. I dont know what will happen pero I pray na sana maapprove sya...and if it was, I think we need to relocate in Makati na rin since our place is 2 ride away from it. My coach told me that the salary will be the same, the position will be the same - ang maganda, me relocation allowance and I think may 2 weeks accomodation in a hotel...(for those TSR's coming from the province syempre pero unfair naman kung di sya inooffer for Manila based applicants). They need 40 CVG applicants for a lateral transfer so Ill just pray that God will give me again the desires or my heart...if not, I know something better is coming my way...

Also, on my
way to the office - I saw an big billboard at the top of Robinsons Galleria and seems like I saw the letters CVG on it. As I look closer, I was in awe as it really is an ad from CVG. I felt proud in a way, maybe I was just shocked to see my company using that tool to attract applicants. I cant help it so I took a picture of it (blurry lang since Im walking while I took it - I dont want to attract attention noh).Eto pa, my officemate Rica show me this MRT card that she purchased on the way to the office and here it again shows the company name urging applicants to try it out and apply...here is what it looks like...
Its just so funny how CVG is getting all the means to promote the company...so much effort talaga! They are opening up I think a total of 3 accounts in 3 different sites in the Philippines - one in Cebu, one in Bacolod and one in Makati - no wonder they are soliciting applicants! They even gave us (current employee) an incentive in which if we refer someone and they get hired, CVG would give us a minimum of P15,000 for each referral...easy money huh! So if anyone is interested in applying, email me @ m
ylessomething@yahoo.com --- > rerefer ko kayo promise, 50/50! hehehe.

And lastly, I also saw an article posted on our Team Board from Libre newspaper (free newspaper for MRT commuters) that also put CVG on the limelight and syempre I took a picture of it as well...(I'll gonna show this blog to my mom din kasi to let her know Im in good hands naman kahit palipat lipat ako ng work...hehehe).

I know there are things that I dont like about CVG (who does'nt?) but were not living in a perfect world.... as for me, I promised myself not to look at the bad side in every situation. I still intend to work here , Im still proud to be a part of the #1 Contact Center in the Philippines, and if God will lead me somewhere else...Ill forever be grateful that I became part of it. As I said on the previous blog enty, everyone has its own story to tell, fortunately for me, I'm still happy the way things are going and hopefully that will stay that way for a looooong time. =)

ASHOP SHOPPING CART

I really want to be an entrepreneur…. I remember before when I was still a child, I asked my mom to lend me money (equivalent to my one week allowance) because I want to put up a small business…my mom was glad because at a very young age …I’m already thinking about those things … she was not aware that the business I will be putting up will be a small convenient store just inside the house (hahaha!). I thought of this venture because being the youngest, I was always the one being asked to buy something on a nearby store…so to get rid of that task and at the same time to practice my selling skills– I put up my “Mimi sari sari store” right inside our doorstep (good idea huh!)…this is the least that I can do to fulfill my dreams at that time since we are living in an apartment on the third floor, so there’s no way for me to sell my stuff on the outside world.

The more I think about that experience.. the more I feel Im meant to be an entrepreneur… Now that there are thousands of ways to promote and sell your products…its not too long before I decide open to up mine (hopefully).

Money making clicks!

Guys, I've found this cool website in which you can earn some bucks while just plainly surfing the net. Maybe some of you does'nt want blogging at all (most money generating jobs on the net usually is associated with blogging), the reason varies - be it you're not good in English grammar (who does?) or you are running out of topics to discuss or to write about, whatever it is here's a good news for you....well this site will allow you to earn money just by clicking a link! Yeah you heard it right! You could accumulate a total earnings of almost $63 (equivalent to P3150/month min) just by clicking ads or by visiting websites.Im just new to this as well but I think it has good potentials since most forumns na nababasa ko is positive naman ang feedback about it (I mean its not a scam at all) . Here's usually how it works:

Earnings Example
*You click 10 ads per day = $0.10
*20 referrals click 10 ads per day = $2.00
*Your daily earnings = $2.10
*Your weekly earnings = $14.70
*Your monthly earnings = $63.00

The above example is based only on 20 referrals and 10 daily clicks. Some days you will have more clicks available, some days you will have less. What if you had more referrals? What if there were more ads available? So if you want to try it out and may dsl or internet service naman kayo sa bahay click HERE to register and start earning... God Bless to all of us!
