Zipline: It’s More Fun in the Philippines _(“,)/

Facebook keeps on trending the “More Fun in the Philippines” photos and get me sooo excited that I want to share mine.   Friends, please welcome my first try for promoting tourism in our beloved country:

My models are my boyfriend’s beloved family:
(L-R) his brother, his cousin’s son & his uncle

Experience the highest zipline in Southeast Asia
at Lake Sebu, South Cotabato \(“,)/
Date Taken: December 29, 2011

 

To go to Lake Sebu if you are from Manila, take the 1.5-hour flight going General Santos City. 
Then, it will be an approximately 3.5 hours bus travel from General Santos City to Lake Sebu. 
The place also offers the sweetest and juicy-iest tilapia! Chaaarap!

 

Enjoy life! ^_^

Cheers,
Lyn-Lyn \(“,)/

Just Take Charge!

A few months ago, I had a great conversation with one of my dearest friends here abroad.  I asked her this question, “How can I be an effective in-charge to my client engagement and my team members?”  This was the time when I was soooo frustrated about my workloads, complains about my job assignments and people I work with, feels so inferior of my responsibility (feels that I’m too young and inexperienced for my job role) and the nature of the clients I dealt with.  I am not a reklamador, so when I make ‘reklamo’, it means I’m really on my *dark side*.

My friend answered, “Do what your role tells you.  You are referred to as the ‘in-charge’, so… gurl, just take charge!!!” (I just have to add those 3 exclamation points, because I really feel she was shouting at me when she said that.)

 

How Can A Person Start His Savings?

If there’s a will, there’s a way! Savings is always possible.  There are people who earn just minimum wage but able to open a bank account and save part of their salary for future funds.  Others invest it to their sari-sari store (a.k.a. “mini-grocery” store) and earn profit.  Sadly, there are others who earn Php20,000 and above, (and also those who earn PhpXXX,000 a month!), who are single and having the prime of their lives, but are buried in debt and never even get to save even just an insy-bitsy-weeny-portion of their monthly salary.

We Should Love One Another

I woke up with a hearty attitude this morning.  The 3-hour sleep was already sufficient to make me alive, alert, awake, enthusiastic! After all, it’s a Sunday! It’s the start of the week. Yeey!  [I slept at almost 3:30am after attending a party then arriving at home and browsing through websites for the best specs for a DSLR to bring with me for our St. Malo (an island in France) and Paris tour this coming Easter holiday. Yeaaah! We already got our tickets and hotel booked! wohooo…!]

 

Happy 31st Birthday, Manong Bryant! :)

Today, my dearest brother celebrates his 31st birthday. _(“,)/  And as always, I pray for blessings, goodwill, guidance and good health for him.

 

I made the following video during his 30th birthday, and it is still the same gratitude I feel for him.  Love ya, Manong! Mwaaahugs!
