Gadget Chic times Three

I am just so overwhelmed with a lot of gadgets I received this week. First, I got this free Ipod shuffle from the Compaq Presario that I bought. Its value is relatively small to the Ipod video which I already have, but still, I'm just so happy that I have an ipod that I could carry around while communting around the city with a lighter ipod on hand. And the big plus is... it's in my favorite color : Green! Next, my mom doesn't know how to navigate her new phone - the Sony Ericsson P990i. Therefore, it goes into my hands for I'm a Sony Ericsson Expert! Yes, my previous phone is the P900 so I know how to navigate through the P990i in seconds, even if the software used in P990i is way different and more user-friendly than the P900. What I'm so happy about is that it has 3G and it's wi-fi ready! And the best part of the week is, I got my pre-ordered Panasonic Lumix TZ5! This one is not free and I really worked hard for this but it's a bargain! It costs around Ph...

Cheerleader becomes CPA

Oathtaking Ceremony at PICC Plenary Hall (June 2007) Dinner is seved at the Testimonial Party at the Manila Hotel With Mr. Conrado Valix who helped us in our jouney Sir D's fun and humour during his lectures stretched my memory. Until now, I remember those jokes. with sir Tom, whose teachings and techniques I well-grasped Thanks CPAR! I was on the lobby of CPAR, our review school, waiting for my turn to arrive at the forefront of the crowd. The cause of the commotion is probably one of the most significant milestone in this crowd?s life. They were looking at their future. Anxiously waiting for my turn, I got to observe other board takers. There were mixed emotions. But, almost all of them cried. You could tell who poured happy tears and who regretfully shed tears of pain. I had a gut feeling that I could be neither one of them for I was feeling so numb at that time. My family and friends know me as a crybaby. I cry profusely in sad movies, I cry so hard when I?m so touched by a per...

Life's Equations

I checked out my corporate e-mails and noticed that I received one from a friend who is resigning effectively today in our company. His message just struck me and I would like to share with you his known equation about life. SCIENCE - ETHICS = MURDER EMOTIONS - LOGIC = FAITH LIFE - DREAMS = JOB If you really think about it, it's true. Sayonnara Mark! See you along the streets of Ayala ave. May you have a new life with a new dream in your new job.

Certified Public Accountant

Hannah Rika A. Villasis, C.P.A. I've always wanted a comma beside my surname. Now, here I am - a Certified Public Accountant. I passed the board exam on May 2007. I can just remember the joy, pride and satisfaction of having to go through a rigorous college training and mind-breaking exam and pass it. It was always a tradition that if you pass the CPA Board Exam, you would automatically apply for a job in an auditing firm. Now that, I didn't do. I don't know if I am regretting it right now and i don't really know if it was the right decision for my career. [ad] Here I am now working for a company and doing management reports. I have a good employer and I have almost 200 hours of training since I started working here last June 2007. I could say I have friendly and healthy relationship with my officemates, my boss and my boss' boss. All in all, I love my current job and I love my benefits and salary. Meanwhile, I still keep on thinking about my college buddies who are...

Rock Convert - Changing from my Hip-hop ways

Who says it's all about religion? Today my soul-searching has stopped. I finally found love in Rock! And when I like something... I'll be totally obsessed about it. I posted hours ago a play list of the UK band "The Filthy Youth" and I failed to explain what made them special to me... First of all, they're all original - from the lyrics to guitar chords and tabs up to the drumbeats and the arrangement of the song it's something I've never heard of before. Second reason, who could separate me from Ed Westwick - the sweetest bad boy image ever. In case you don't recognize him by his true name, he plays "Chuck Bass" in the hit TV series Gossip Girl. If you read the books though he's just like an extra "bi" character. But I'm talking about television here so what the heck. Third reason is where? They come from UK and have hot British accents. Uh-oh fetish revealed! - enough said. Fourth, I love reggae & ska and these gents g...
