I’ve been meaning to talk about Olive Tree since last year when I first started using it. I have been looking for Bible Reading plans and I came across the link in one of the blogs I’ve been reading. Olive Tree Bible Software can be downloaded on most mobile gadgets. I use an iPhone so it’s where I downloaded it. I find it very handy especially when I need to unload my bag of heavy things to make my traveling more manageable. If you want to have your Bible and your reading plans along with you all the time, it’s a […]
At a glance, it’s easy to assume that the musical, Kinky Boots Manila, is all about LGBT and it can easily be taken as that especially if you have not seen the show and have only seen the pictures on social media and read some reviews. I’ve watched the show four times before I caught on with some of the dialogues because, well, it’s easy to get diverted to the fabulous entertainment right before you.

We went to watch Saving Sally to support this year’s Metro Manila Film Festival. I’m very much aware at how low the sales has been this year compared to the previous years when they were showing mainstream Filipino movies.

We had the opportunity to review one of Tuttle Publishing’s books recently. The title of the book is “All About the Philippines: Stories, Songs, Crafts, and Games for Kids,” authored by Gidget Roceles Jimenez and beautifully illustrated in watercolor by Corazon Dandan-Albano. It is the best supplementary book in Filipino history and culture for kids that we’ve used so far and let me tell you why. First of all, it celebrates the richness and diversity of our history, heritage and culture as a people in the most honest and colorful way. And the simplicity of the text and it being served […]
I recently finished reading the E-book “From Depressed to Determined, a 6 Step Guide to Thrive and have Personal Success” by Vivienne Bigornia. Vivienne is the same author of the book, 7 Things Every Wife should Know. It took me a while to read the book because I recently went back to working full time online for my former company (I’ll tell you all about it soon) and have adjusted my priorities over the past few weeks. In a nutshell, From Depressed to Determined is a 6-day guide in getting over yourself to making something of yourself. At first I […]
