Greatness Starts at Home.

Greatness Starts @Home

Ever watched TV or listened to the radio and heard Milo’s tagline that said, “Great things start from small beginnings“? I think that and Globe’s “Greatness starts at home” taglines work well together especially when one speaks of family and parents. Greatness starts at home with loving parents and great things start from children raised in loving homes.

After I finished highschool, I had my life all planned out. I told myself I’ll finish college within 3 or 4 years, get a career, help my parents and siblings, start my own business, buy my own home and then when I’m old enough, I’ll retire. Unfortunately, life seldom goes according to plan and it has a habit of throwing tons of obstacles, crossroads and dead ends in your path. I must’ve won the “throw it all to me” lottery because it did just that and I honestly don’t know if I’d still be here typing this out right now if didn’t have my parents and my faith while I was slowly crawling on that difficult and lonely path.

Amy Winehouse is dead.

Posts that Amy Winehouse is dead started popping up in Twitter and Facebook earlier. I thought it was just another hoax but according to The Sun, it’s real. She was found dead at her home in Camden.

I still can’t believe that Amy Winehouse is dead. If it is really true, rest in peace Amy. You will be missed.

Exact fares for Southbound buses, please?

This blog has been quiet for a while because I’ve been a bit busy the past 2 months. I started working as an information researcher for a private media firm in the construction industry so most of my time is spent at work and the 1 – 1 1/2 hour commutes in the morning and the afternoon. I ride LRT/Buendia based buses in the mornings and Batangas based buses in the afternoon. Sometimes I get lucky when I catch buses that allow discounted fares for regular commuters, but there are times when I have no choice but to get on whatever bus passes by to avoid being late for work.

I don’t have any complaints in the increase of bus fares since it’s part of life, what irks me are bus companies that charge fares with an extra P0.50. Read more »
