Wheeewww...what a busy week. I never get to write any blog. Now my google adsense reports says I earned nothing. What a week! I wish I could write blog everytime I'm on a public utility vehicle. Doing two things in an hour. Wow! That would be great.
Anyway, I'll think of a topic first before I would get to write to this blog. Later, I'll write a blog.
See you then.

My Journey to Mati
It was planned long time ago. Actually, the first plan was to go island hopping in Samal. We have to reschedule that one.
June 9, 2007, Saturday before we left Davao. It was the day when everyone felt "hey, we should be busy" kinda thing. Rushing to buy things to bring to Mati. I've never been to Mati, I decided to sleep at Michelle's house just to be sure that I will be early. Slept at around 2am and woke up at around 4:30am. Took a bath, help prepare things for lunch. I was a little concern with Kuya Dax, he has to be at Michelle's house early before we will leave for Mati. At 5:30am, the ride was here.
Left Davao at around 6am. We got to Madaum, Tagum, at 7am. Wow! Going and going, arrived at Pantukan, Banay banay, Lupon then Mati! With all the zigzag roads and the dinasour island, it was the craziest ride ever.
When we were at Mati, we've met with Ms. Weng at the the public market. Drive to her place at Cahandig, change a little and then took off again to Waniban Island. Nice beach! Love to stay here but they say there are sharks in the deep blue sea water of Waniban.
At dark, there are no light post at all. Dark and scary but real nice for bonfire and some marshmallows and some star gazing. Whewww....had to sleep because I will cook breakfast for everyone.
I prepared breakfast around 5:30 am, walk around the beach, saw some sea urchins and star fish. Seaweeds, and all corals. You can see a lot of fish. I wanted to swim but I have to go back and make breakfast.
Champorado for breakfast and some dilis. I need to get a nap after all these.
We left right after eating the last meal, lunch, and off again to Davao.
This was a great road trip.

I Say Walk The Talk
I've read an article on the I.T. Talks by Blogie Robillo, and it make me wanna shout out and make this post.
Is Davao really prepared for this sudden influx of BPO? Do we have necessary manpower, particularly in the case of medical transcription? Transkripsyo, Inc., is a medical transcription company and we all know this kind of profession is doing medical documents which needs a couple of months of training, even for a medical background professional or allied medical professional. If it's gonna be call center industry then we don't have a problem with manpower. If it's going to be medical transcription then we need to have a lot of graduates of basic medical transcription course.
It is not surprising that Manila is now looking at Davao as an option. If you would also take a glance at the current population, all schools are offering allied medical courses, one example is the nursing course. It will not be impossible that all school will soon integrate basic medical transcription subjects into their curriculum. Not only that, computer related courses, it can also be integrated to their curriculum.
MTC Academy's main branch is already doing the school integration program, wherein the basic medical transcription course with the current curriculum of the school will be integrated so that a student will graduate with a certificate competency from the basic medical transcription course and a diploma from the 4 or 5 year course she or he took up.
As part of MTC, you would be asking why are we doing it? Yeah...yeah...money making is part of it but we need to WALK THE TALK. Transcription companies currently have a contract abroad to do medical transcriptions for them, if we can't be producing quality graduates of the basic medical transcription course then we can't produce transcriptions for clients and we'll lose our contracts.
In Blogie's article, the way I understand it, everyone needs to participate. Why I'm making the MTC Academy School Integration Program an example because for an industry or a company to bring up its name to the nation and to the world, it needs to start from the core. Like what Blogie is doing, never giving up on the idea, even though there are issues to be resolved. Davao has a lot to offer, and if it's just gonna be Blogie's job to tell the world that then no one will ever notice Davao. If we are all there and participate, then that idea would not be just an idea but am empire where Davao can be proud of.
(I hope I make sense)

Capital Times
In the increase awareness of what technology can do to us, we consistently adopt to what is higher than be contented with what we have in the present. In the market, recently, there is a new digital camera that is 10.0 megapixels which means the higher the pixels, better is the resolution. I don't know exactly what it can do to a person but it's the fad. This is what's going on around.
Like in the university, I know they don't like to bring notebooks and they would rather type it out in their laptops. Inside coffee houses or cafe's, instead of talking to someone, you can see one person on his laptop doing something. Coffee house is a venue where you can have coffee with your friends and talk. Well, yeah you are talking to a friend online.
Sending SMS, widely known as text messaging, is another thing. Instead of calling, you'd rather send out a lot of text messages to someone. Now there's a new thing, MMS, you can send colored pictures to someone with or without text. And alas, the video calling. Isn't it great?
If you go back to history, you'll traced it from the remote control for tv, there's washing machine, there's the blender, juice maker, vendo machine, mobile phones with camera, ipod, and so on and so on. If you wanna take a look at the bottom part of why we are inventing all these, because we are lazy. I am lazy too, most of the times, because I used almost everything that was mentioned earlier.
This is what had happened in the capital times. In marketing we call this innovation for better customer service. In reality, everyone really is not satisfied with what is in the present. We continue to look for something better and convenient. That's being human.
Capital times keeps on bringing up a new things for human to enjoy and be satisfied for a little time. I say, evolution of human beings, from a wandering nomad to a techy street smart executive.

5 Things I Do Everyday To Be Successful
Like I always said, I love to read blogs of other people. Now I found a new blogger Terry Starbucker. His blog is nice and informative, The Ramblings From a Glass Half Full, especially the article 5 Thing I Do Everyday to be Successful. It gave me an idea to make my own. Someone has taught me to say something positive to yourself and you'll attract fortune.
I hope Mr. Starbucker wouldn't mind me copying the same title he got in his blog.
5 Things I Do Everyday To Be Successful
1. I tell myself to be always strong and I can do it. I don't know why but whether I am out to do something or I'm just at home I would tell myself that. Maybe because I'm in the marketing department of MTC Academy Davao, I need to tell myself that. Even before I am not yet with the company, to be able to help get the stress out of my system, I would say "Hang in there. Hang tight. You can do it."
2. Breathe breathe breathe. I'm still human, I need to breathe. Taking deep breath is good. It will help prevent heart attack (according to me of course)
3. Think positive. Whatever you think about yourself will make who you are the whole day. If you think you got a bad hair day, it'll affect the whole personality and you won't be able to do what you have to do. If that's the case, you better go back to sleep and wake up after an hour or when you feel good. Take a shower.
4. Say Good Morning. Even if it's a hot afternoon, don't forget to say good morning it'll make another person smile. Why? They will wonder, why did she said Good morning? (Sometimes a good sense of humor brightens up a person's busy day)
5. And last but not the least, SMILE. Never forget to smile. It brings out energy. Don't frown be a clown (I can't think of anything to rhyme with frown)
Well, I do hope it'll help. Write your comments.

What's the Big Idea?
A lot of us for sure has been thinking of what to do. What's the big idea? I've seen this blog of Dane Carlson about business opportunities. I got a lot of idea in my mind but I'm too scared to say it out. I don't know if others will laugh at it or worse they would never listen. I can bare the laughter but I can never think of a time that no one is listening to me.
What's the Big Idea? It simply denotes that a smallest idea ever can be a big one. The way I understand it, as an entrepreneur you got to think big. Think out of the box. Don't stop there, move along and bring it along. You'll never know, you'll pick up a pot of gold along the way.
Did anyone remember the story of a boy with his horse walking because he was told to go to a place to do some work but he could not remember the place. (Nah...So it was just my mother's another made up story) He went along, walking and helping people. He found a hut with a carpenter making a chair. He couldn't make it right only because he was too old. The boy knows how to do it so he helped the old man. He made the most beautiful chair, and even the person on the chariot noticed it. Offered to buy it, and the boy said, "No sir. It is for the old man." So the gentleman said, " You got a great heart, lad. Here, take this piece of gold and buy yourself a lot of wood to make a chair and I will return to buy them all."
I hope you like the story and you do get what I was trying to say. I'm just saying it out loud now. Now that's they big idea.

How can I make Money while blogging?
I've read a blog this afternoon and it is quite interesting. Well, the title really is interesting. The blog is "High paying keywords for Google Adsense".
You can make money while blogging but you have to remember to be honest also. It is tempting but never attempt. Read along that blog and you'll learn a lot from it.
You can make money while blogging but you have to remember to be honest also. It is tempting but never attempt. Read along that blog and you'll learn a lot from it.
And the Story goes...
Call it calm, lonely, whatever you may want to call it or whatever adjective you want to use. You may want to say, "Her? She's just thinking 'bout something." Really, I am thinking. You can ask why, what's on my mind and stuff.
Do you ask permission when you borrow things?
Since it was there, you'd rather use it and then bring it back to where it was placed?
Let say, you got this very useful thing and it can be used by just anybody. Would you be mad and wonder a little why that person just took that useful thing without asking permission from you?
Another thing is that, that person says he told your comrade about borrowing it. Would you be mad at that?
Everyday stories are made up of little decisions that we do in every minute of the day that would lead to a reaction, feelings, emotion and would lead us to thinking especially when we were overuled with anger because we did not permit such thing to happen. Well, we don't care if the situation make us happy. Would it be best that even if we are happy we think deeply about it too?
In the story of saying sorry and thank you. We say sorry all of those times that we've hurt someone because we broke his watch but we seldom say thank you to someone who lend us his watch. I salute to those who frequently say thank you.
One comment was said and done. It'll hurt you nor make you smile. We don't like comments but we know it'll make us strong and it'll help us grow. But everything has it's right timing. When it is too much don't wait for the right time, say it loud. If it's definitely the right time then say it.
Been there done that. Don't you agree?
