Do you want to pimp your facebook profile ? Try Chameleon Tom ...hold your horses! Using their application is not a good idea. At first I thought that using their so called " Great Facebook Layout " can make my fb page a head turner but I was wrong. Rather I feel disappointed because it really does not work the way I want it to be. Nevertheless, using the Chameleon Tom application is a waste of time. And why do I say so? First, it is imperative that you will install their plug- ins before you can change your facebook layout. And it will take time if you have a slow internet connection for sure. Why they can't make it easy like providing us html code to just copy and paste it to our fb page. Seems impossible I think. And secondly, why is it that we need to invite friends first to use this application before they can see our fb page change. Isn't it odd ? It should be instant that the user of this layout can show it to our friends even if they don't choose to use...

No, I am not pertaining to the popular animated series when I say Jejemon. Rather this is just another craze in the Philippines and is one of the hottest topic according to google and yahoo trends. What about this jejemon and who are they ? I was listening to love radio 90.7 two days ago and heard Dj Chris Tsuper and Dj Nicolehiyala talking about the Jejemon. And that funny conversation gave me a clear view about what Jejemons is.  To explain this further, looking in the illustration above, you will have a hint about Jejemon phenomenon. Yes, it is simply pertaining to people who making a simple message into complicated one by adding some characters, using different font styles, seems like a new word but pronounce in the same way. This is commonly use by some in texting, chatting and yes, posting blurbs in social networking sites.  Though I am not one of the Jejemons, I have no bad comment about them as long as they enjoy on what they are doing. Well, they are still harmle...

I am a big fan of this Face to Face talk show with Amy Perez. Believe it or not this show is far different from what you usually see in Philippine television during noontime. This show which is tagged as " First Talakserye" is really intriguing. The concept of the show is unique, real people with some issues that they need to argue about in face of the camera ; neighbors who fought because of gossips, lovers who quarreled because of third party, gays who turned enemies because of beauty contest and what not. Yes, simple issues that turned into something big and  complicated.  I guess this is the spice of this show. Added to that, the host of the show which is Amy Perez is very professional and very fair in handling two sides of the stories. She also acts as a guardian trying to make both camps agreed on one thing ; to forgive and to forget. But when both camps clash , there are Bouncers to stopped the quarrel. I also love the portion where they have resident attorney to e...

Last week, my friend asked my opinion on what he can do about his hair  to look shiny without spending too much in a salon. He feels uncomfortable on his dry hair, this also makes him feel insecure with others who have shiny hairs. And honestly, this is really affecting his self confidence. I told him to use Gatsby Wax . I am using Gatsby Wax ( the one in yellow jar ) when I have some outdoor activities. I prefer to use it than any other hair styling creams because this is the only one that makes my hair look naturally shiny and always in style. (Hence, I am not recommending any other Gatsby Wax  than just the one in yellow jar if you want to have a natural wet look effect on your hair). This will be a perfect remedy for my friend's hair and  will surely makes his hair look better. He followed my advice about using Gatsby Wax yellow. Many of our friends notice that he looks stunning than before. His shiny hair makes him look younger and  better.  He thank...

I made a positive review about Digitel before, but now I am becoming upset with regard to their internet service. Honestly, I am really fed up with how they handle their customers. Here is my story : We were using PLDT DSL before in our internet cafe, but because of high expenses paying internet bills we decided to switch to a much cheaper cost internet provider which is Digitel. In all fairness, for almost 2  months using it, we were not encountering any trouble, the speed of the internet is quite the same with what PLDT has except if the customers are playing online games; they were experiencing log or delays but it's still okay...we were able to maintain our regular customers. Until we reached our third month using the service, and up to by now, we begin to encounter internet disconnection up to 4 hours or worst 8 hours. We started getting in touch with their customer service but most of the time we were receiving no answers at all. We also tried visiting their branch offic...

--> I last attended my college schooling back in 2003 and this year I finally have the opportunity to continue my studies. For two years I was an Adamsonian, but this time I am now with National College of Science and Technology or NCST . I just enrolled yesterday, I have no idea yet if the school will offer the same quality education as what Adamson University offered to me. One main reason why I transferred to a college school is the accessibility of NCST to my hometown Cavite and to my internet shop where I do business. Other than these, I also heard some positive feedback about the school. Fact is, this is the school where my bestfriend finished his two years of Associate in Computer Technology before he took up his 4 year B.S Education in Philippine Christian University. He told me that the professors here are very diligent, dependable and has exceptional teaching skills. I am also happy because they almost credit all my units earned in my previous school. Fo...

Have you tried this Mcdo's Monster Fruity Green Apple Sprite Float ? Try it and you will surely like it.  Last Sunday, we went to University of Santo Thomas for my bestfriend's LET board exam. It was so hot that time...waiting for him to finish the exam was a boredom. What can I do? I am his lucky charm that's why I was there to support him. I just brought a Bob Ong book, mp3 player, pen and paper just to kill some dullness. Fortunately, inside the UST campus, there is Mcdonald's - one of my favorite eating spot. And glad that they bring back my favorite Monster Fruity Green Apple Sprite Float. What a great long day.  This cold drink is very refreshing. The perfect taste of green apple soda matches the yummy vanilla flavored ice cream on top. I bought a large fries and a burger to make it more appealing to my appetite. One regular size of this Mcdonald's green apple float is 25.00 pesos but if you are not contented, try there Monster size for only 38.00 pesos....

Have you tasted a vegetarian chicharon ? Not yet? Well I recommend you to try Oishi's first ever vegetarian chicharon - Marty's Cracklin'. It is salty, sour, and crunchy, this is what I like about this junk food. And I am sure that once you have it you will surely ask for more. I first tried this junk food when I was still working in Makati, one of my colleague brought this in the office. At first I was hesitant to try it because I don't like chicharon really. But when my colleague explained to me that this Marty's Cracklin' is very different from the regular chicharon and told me that this has no cholesterol at all. I was tempted to try it. And the rest is history. Fact is, this vegetarian chicharon is my addiction right now.  The price of big size Marty's Cracklin' is 20.00 pesos, they also have the small one priced at 5.00. It is very cheap compare to other junk food. However, one big size is not enough for me. I tend to buy another one. Try it...

Minute Burger is a popular burger chain in the Philippines, the first to offer Buy 1 Take 1 burgers for a low price. But is it as yummy as Jollibee or Mcdo burgers? Read.  I tried to eat there once and I can say that the burger patties are yummy. It is far better than Angel's Burger. I also like the ice choco they offer for only  20 pesos. It is really a good combination of a value burger meal. With regard to customer service, well it is a good idea that the customers see how they prepare the burgers. I also like the neatness of the service crews, they wear hairnets and apron. They also has a fast service that can accomodate 10 customers in less than 15 minutes.  Just one thing I notice, the service crews lack customer engagement. It would be better if they are also trained to give a warm welcome to their customers. A simple greeting or a nice smile will do.  I believe that this can generate more customers for them overtime.  But since the burger is a gr...

It's almost past 4 months since my last day in Aegis People Support . I admit that even if I am earning a decent income online at the comfort of my own home, I still miss the workplace there especially my acquaintances. Aegis People Support has three offshore contact centers here in the Philippines. If you like a job in a customer service field, perhaps this is such a good workplace for you. If you think that it's that hard to be hired in here, you're just being pessimistic. Fact is, as long as you have a good communication skills, multi tasking ability, and a 30 wpm typing speed...you're good! Let me tell you, it is just confidence that gave me a chance to work inside this call center. Moreover, Aegis People Support has a lot to offer for their employees; good compensation, incentives, and  valuable healthcare benefits. In addition to that, they also organize parties for their employees during christmas and special celebrations.  The only thing that I think Aegis ...

After I got scammed from joining paid to click websites, I looked for other ways to earn online. I know that internet money making does not end from joining ptcs. I know it has a variety to offer. Opportunities that are better than paid to click websites. Money making websites that are free to join. I started from scratch, this time, I told myself that I will only join money making sites that does not require a membership fee nor an investment. Until I found Triond in the web. Triond is a web portal where you can earn money by simply submitting valuable contents such as text article, photos and videos. Triond has a promising offer, you can earn from the number of pageviews your content has generated. For example, if your content has 1,000 pageviews, you maybe earning up to or more than $1.00. At first I thought that it will be hard for me to earn in Triond, but it's low minimum payout $0.50 convinced me to try it. Secondly, there is nothing to lose, no money to invest and no me...

Pilipinas Got Talent is a nationwide reality t.v show that showcases different talents of filipinos. From singing, dancing, magical performances, comic acts, etc, are here in this show. The three jurors are headed by Kris Aquino, Ai-ai Delas Alas and Freddie Garcia . I was able to watch some of its episodes from youtube and I was really amazed on this show. Eventhough there are lots of talent shows in Philippine Television, this show is far spectacular than its competitors. Even from the original Talentadong Pinoy .  This is proven by the high rating that it gained from it's premiere episode. However, I just don't like how FMG, one of the juror,  choose the contestant who will have a chance to show his/her talent on the next round or who is not. He is strict and sometimes stiff in his comments, unlike Aiai and Kris that are more affectionate to the contestants. Well, overall, Pilipinas Got Talent is a great show to watch. All the episodes so far are extravagant.  ...

Jumborger is a new burger chain here in the Philippines. It offers a super affordable burger meals, hotdog sandwiches, chinese siopao and more.  I was able to try one of  their budget meals yesterday when I went to Dasma City. ( this is one of their branch near Waltermart ). Believe it or not ? Jumborger offers their footlong sandwich  ( jumbo hotdog sandwich ) for only 10 pesos and their small cup of soda costs only 5  pesos. So far, this is the cheapest meal I tried. Yet, the affordability of their meals do not compromise the quality of how their food taste.  I am also satisfied on how fast the service is. My order was prepared in less than 5 minutes. I just hope that the service crews can improve on their customer service skills, learn how to smile and greet their customers. I think this will help boost their sales and have more regular customers in the future.  Overall, Jumborger is a recommendable place where you can have a very low price but yum...

Are you planning to work in a travel industry? Perhaps,you may want to consider being a travel specialist for Expedia . One of the largest online travel agency in the internet today. Becoming a travel specialist for Expedia is very challenging. I know because this was my job for almost 4 months. I was trained in an offshore contact center here in the Philippines for almost 2 months. Together with my colleagues, we were taught to handle online bookings for flights, hotel reservations and vacation packages. Our job also does not end from there, we were also taught to handle phone calls about flight schedule changes, flight cancelation , refunds for hotel inconvenience to name a few. It is not important if you don't have any work experience yet to get hired for this job. As long as you are willing to be trained and you are good in communication skills and multitasking, there is no reason why you can't be accepted. But be prepared because this job is really tough. Supervisors...

Chowking is a well known chinese restaurant in the Philippines. Well known for it's halo-halo special, chowfan, siopao etc. You can buy a chinese food here for as low as 49.00 pesos. But I had a bad experience dining in this restaurant, the one in Pacific Star Building Makati . I don't have any complaints about the food that they serve, Well in fact Chowking Meals are one of my favorites. But this is not about the food, this is about the service. What happened was me and my friends waited too long, more than 15 minutes to get our meals. We were really starving that time, we really needed to have our meal done as quick as possible because we were just given a 30 minute break by our boss. I was working that time in E-performax. My colleague who was very confrontational and outspoken really approached the manager and told them that the service is really slow. In all fairness, the manager did apologize for the inconvenience. Another worst scenario, when the food was served...

Have you already visited the RCBC tower?I just went there yesterday to visit a friend. This building is in Makati near Aegis People Support and Convergys. I don't have much bad comments about this tower because everything here seems to be perfect. You are really secured to enter this building. There are lot of k9 dogs together with the guards roaming around, almost everywhere in the building. While waiting for my friend, I enjoy visiting the tower because it has a lot to offer. Located in the second floor is my favorite coffee shop, Starbucks, there is also a gym, the well know Fitness First, convenience store, restaurants and other kiosk that offers food, magazines and books. The tower is really clean and well sanitized. It has sanitizers in every floor of the tower, specially near the elevators and escalators. Located in the 4th floor is a chapel for catholics. For employment opportunities, there are a lot of call centers inside wherein you can try to submit an application ...

Ink Wise Continuous Ink Refilling System Located at the Ground Floor of Waltemart in Dasmariñas, Cavite My computer shop has undergone a full renovation last 2 weeks. My partner and I decided to offer our customers a newly designed computer shop for their internet rental needs and services. It was successfully done as we observe that new customers are coming in to avail our offers. One thing they want about our new computer shop is our printing services. From 5 peso per page black and white print, we now offer it for as low as 2 pesos. We don't lose profit though, in fact, we gain more. The reason behind this is that we made our printer converted into a continuous ink system. This is not the first time we try to do this, we did this one year ago with an unknown company who convert printers...our old printer was totally damage and they did not offer us any goodwill or what not. Since then, we refuse offers to convert our printer because as far as we know, companies that offers...

It is hard for me to understand why many of us Filipino are so afraid to get out of the comfort zone. They want to stick to the old school election and is not accepting the comelec's automated election. How this country can progress, if we are always doubtful on what the higher authority is doing for us. Let's all move on! let's give them a chance to make this election as clean as we want it to be. Let's just focus on investigating who among those candidates worth your vote. Let's accept the automated election and let the comelec or the authority handle it for us. I heard from the news last night that the comelec is now doing their road shows as part of their awareness campaign for the first automated election in the Philippines. This is quite good, because I feel that many of us would like to know how easy it is to use. The key to a clean election here in the Philippiens is trust and honesty. I hope the next president of our country, whoever that person is...will ...
