Success is no accident. It entails hard work, perseverance, learning, sacrifice and most of all, love for what you do. Oftentimes, those who are unsuccessful often feel trapped, whether in a dead-end career or otherwise. Sometimes, a 180-degree turn or turning to a different direction, can do wonders.

Technology can be very addicting. The convenience of having everything that can make you feel good in a click of a button is undeniably satisfying. But it keeps us from socializing, which is not a good effect of our so dear advancement. Although technology offers everything, its effects on our daily lives still depend on how we see it. That is why Devant - a world renowned brand, hopes to put technology to good use through their 7:30PM TV G2G (Get Together).

I remember how our family celebrated birthdays with a Goldilocks cake. You know there's always a celebration when you see that yellow box and brand. You know it's a day to be cherished. Part of my childhood was built on icings on cakes, chocolates, sweet puddings and songs played on a jukebox karaoke. Many cake brands emerge from different corners of where I live in nowadays, but nothing beats the memories Goldilocks cakes has imprinted on me.

I've been reading lots of status on facebook saying "It's hard to be me" followed by their ungrateful remarks about their good life. It's like a tacky statement of their bragging rights. Leaving us readers confused whether to say they're "so humble" or "bitch what's wrong with you?". With the kind of social media environment, it is hard to focus on what matters most or even to think about whether thinking about other status matters or not. LOL! Kidding aside, with the rise of social media where everybody rules, focusing on things that matters can be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

3 hours drive from Tacloban is this small yet brilliant place they call Biliran. Roads here are like webs of roundabouts compared to the first one (click HERE for the previous blog). You will literally twist and turn inside your car. Haha! Kidding aside, upon our arrival, we were welcomed with a treat they call Cab-cab - a cassava cracker oozed with honey. Oh...what a treat indeed!

We made our way back to Tacloban City after our first farm tour (click HERE for the link). It took us another 4 hours transit just to reach La Granja De Reyna. It is located in Maharlika Highway, Barangay 93 and about 7 kilometers away from the city. The farm is being managed by Mrs. Martina "Tina" Reyna, a 50 something woman who seem no signs of slowing down.

Where your beverage can take you? Last Sunday, I find myself wandering around Tagaytay for Bon appeTEA's grand opening. The cool breeze and fascinating view of Taal Volcano set my mood this coming holiday. I mean where else can be the perfect place to celebrate it right?

In recent years, the insurance industry in the country has been growing steadily in double digits and it is driven by an unlikely force—the millennials. Stephen Segismundo, Head of Agency Strategy Office of Philam Life, notes that this is because millennials are more aware of the need to plan ahead in terms of their finances.

I promised myself that before I go out and travel other countries, I should've at least visited the 7, 107 islands of the Philippines. Due to my lazy attitude and lack of travel funds I haven't tick off places on my list. Good thing Agricultural Training Institute (ATI) invited me along with other bloggers to experience places that practice organic farming in Eastern Visayas.

My usual #Piattostime is just me sitting at a corner, look at things and munch on those cheesy hexagonal potato crisps. But we millennials drive our future by always seeking something that would fire up our passion even with a simple snack time. We badly need to be creative just to keep up our enthusiasm high. Bearing that in mind, I decided to level up my #PiattosTime by doing an interpretation of Zendaya's double cut crease eye makeup. Mixing up two things I am passionate with, eating (LOL) and make-up.

Majayjay Laguna was first introduced to me by my friends whom I consider my 2nd family. Their stories about the mystical Taytay Falls gave me hope that was then fulfilled in 2015. On my second visit this year, we dropped off "Costales Natures Farm" and there I realized how abundant our organic materials. My experience there made me think of the possibility that we Filipinos can feed the world.
