Sweet Indulgence

Among the things prohibited in our new office are smelly fruits (like Davao City’s native fruit Durian, which has become one of my favorites), and smoking, which is self explanatory. However, I do have a specific memory of smoking in general, which I can tie in to the experience of mine while I was still [...]

The Inevitable

I wanted that to sound like in the motion picture, “The Untouchables.’ LoL. Enough goofing around. As we go through the stages of this journey we call life, there are some realities that, although we put off at the back of our minds, we do have to acknowledge. Such is life. As we grow older, [...]

Less is More

As I was watching a replayed episode of The Biggest Loser earlier today, I couldn’t help but be amazed at the often complete transformation that the participants of the reality show undergo. In a way, this specific reality TV show has this positive thing going for it in that it helps make a positive impact [...]

Skepticism on weight loss solution

As I was browsing through online profiles of my friends on Facebook earlier today,  I came across a picture of a friend of mine advertising a weight-loss protein milkshake.

Taking the big leap

As I have mentioned from a couple of posts back, our group/department in the company is in the verge of a major reorganizational change, one that would in a way be beneficial to us since our pay rates would be adjusted (thank God!!) so that there won’t be much discrepancy with the going rate in [...]

The battle of the bulge

No, I do not mean the famous battle from World War II. More like the battle with the lovehandles. LoL. Manong Andrew has just came back from his work-and-travel on-the-job-training experience and guess what! He has gained more pounds. When chided about it, he just tells us that that was his way of coping with [...]
