Help Me Help You Resume Writing Tips

Posted on February 10th, 2008 in Self-Improvement | No Comments »

Resume writing is something I took seriously when I was just looking to join the workforce. For one, I didn’t want to end up in a job that I didn’t like. Two, I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do back then. If anything, a person’s resume can actually become the ticket to finding the perfect job.
Ever wondered what employers look for when scouting for talent online? Here’s my informal take.

Cubao X or formerly known as Marikina Shoe Expo

Posted on February 6th, 2008 in marikina shoe expo, cubao, aurora, araneta center, Around The Philippines | No Comments »

What to say about Cubao?
Change.

Cubao. I lived my childhood on one of the streets named after a city abroad. As such, I have memories to share what was. The now popular Cubao Expo, the venue or more like the “house” of vintage shops, artistry, antiques and much more, was but Markina Shoe Expo to me and my friends. The only vintage shop I knew present was the Thrift Shop since most stores were in the shoe business.
Fast Forward. Suddenly, the place became Cubao Expo or simply Cubao X. And it was happening whatever it was. Change.
Quite interesting to find Cubao becoming a hub of various expressions and I,on peripheral, have witnessed how it blossomed for another generation.
Tip: Visit Cubao X if you want to check out the other stores/gallery at night. They usually open at 3pm onwards. The shoe stores on the other hand sticks to regular store hours.

Get ripped like Aga Muhlach

Posted on February 2nd, 2008 in Disappointments & Self Improvement | No Comments »

Since the 2008 started, I decided to purchase a few dumbells so I could do my daily lifting at home. Aside from the fact that it saved me a lot of time (and gym fees), I realized that I didn’t need the heavy plates at the gym anyways. My goal after all, was to become as lean and ripped (ulp!) as I possibly could.
Mind you, I’ve set this goal for myself time and time again.

If these Walls could Talk: Casa Manila

Posted on February 2nd, 2008 in Around The Philippines | No Comments »

CASA MANILA in a nutshell
* run by the Intramuros administration

* walls of the ground floors are made o adobe stones

What you’ll see
* Zaguan and Patio-Zaguanis a Arabic word meaning “corridor”. It is through the zaguan that the carriages or carruajes entered, dropping off passengers by the stairs.
*Entresuelo- The word entresuelo literally means “between floors”. This is the area where clients, tenants, or estate managers (if the owner was a rich landowner) wait before being admitted to the oficina (office).
* Despacho or Oficina- This is where the owner of the house conducted business together with his clerks or accountants.
*Cuartos- The Filipino family is quite extended. More often than not, an unmarried aunt or uncle lived with the nuclear family aside from the grandmother and the grandfather. They may occupy the bedrooms in the […]

On Niche Markets and Society Magazines

Posted on February 2nd, 2008 in Print Media, TV, and PR | No Comments »

By definition, a niche market is a focused targetable portion of a market sector. Niche marketing, in turn, is any attempt to provide a product or service that is not being addressed by mainstream providers. This new demand arises whenever there are changes to society, technology, or the general environment.
If there’s a magazine company out there worth noting when it comes to this, it would have to be Hinge Inquirer Publications.
