This is one of those times that I seriously wish am in Sagada right now. In the highlands and chasing waterfalls to be more specific. Instead I am  sitting here typing on Muncher who he himself is groaning from the intense heat. The air is stale and humid, the electric fan by my side working [...]

On Being a Blogger and Making a Difference

The Aman Investment which I tackled on my blog last August, when it was still on its heyday and when people were almost worshipping Aman and ripping to pieces those who dare hint negative things about this investment has almost come full circle.  I say ‘Almost’ because the people behind Aman are still in hiding and can’t be [...]

Love Cebu Logo

The Cebuano market is hard to please. I’ve heard this often when I was working on getting my Business Management degree from UP Cebu. And it seems to be true especially last weekend. “Value for money” is a driving force especially among Cebuano buyers. Meaning  the “1 piso” you shell out should really equal to [...]
