Event security
To keep a crowd under control and to make the event more organized, you can use stanchions, barricades, and a velvet rope. These are all effective means to maintain crowd control. Spare no expenses when considering these things as they are all for the safety and security of the event.
Once you've launched your event smoothly and securely, you can plan other upcoming events more easily. So, remember to keep security of the attendees foremost in your mind during event planning. Then, plan ways on how the event can become a success!

Holiday season
Anyway, I just have to make sure that I load up on some much needed vitamin C. Here's to hoping I get well soon! I really hope I do! I hate having a cold!
Happy holidays, everyone!

On being a doctor
If you are on the lookout for a job as a medical consultant, then you might want to consider taking a consultant interview course to help you prepare for the application process. After all, you would want to make sure that your potential employer knows all your skills and qualifications.
On the other hand, if you want to try teaching in medical school, then why not take a medical teaching course? If you want to pass on your knowledge to the would-be doctors out there, then this is definitely a worthwhile choice. You can also try the teach the teacher course, which can also help you gain the necessary skills to teach others.
To improve your leadership skills, then a medical management course would be perfect for you. It's only a one-day course, but will definitely improve your management abilities.

Christmas shopping
I know, I know. This is what I get for not doing my Christmas shopping earlier. It's just that things have been so busy lately that I couldn't find the time to go to the mall and look for gifts. Plus, it's hard to think of gifts, which you think your friends might like!
I hope I can finish buying my Christmas gifts before the week ends! Anyway, would you care to share some gift ideas?
Talking about financial matters
I have yet to make any serious decisions regarding financial investments. However, I know that it is something that every person must consider to attain financial security. But before all that, careful planning and analysis of the various available investment types is needed. For example, if you're planning on investing on silver dollars, then you should probably know where to get a copy of a morgan dollar price guide. If you plan on investing in gold, then you need to know where to purchase them.
Sounds easy, huh? Yes, it does sound pretty easy, but I think actually going through with your investment decision can be quite difficult. You'll experience having second thoughts, thinking if you've made the right decision and if it will really be profitable for you.
That's where the importance of careful planning and analyzing comes in. Make sure that you know what you're doing. Research on your choice of investment first and think of its pros and cons. Invest your money wisely!

The Bloomfields!
I'm not updated with the hit songs nowadays, though (especially in the OPM scene), so I don't know what's up with them. Haha. Do they have a new album? Do they still wear their Beatles-inspired outfits? I hope they still do! They looked cute in them! :)
Saturday, December 10, 2011
Investing in gold
However, I don't really have any idea on how and where to purchase gold, so I think I'd have to do some research on that first, before I try my hand with gold investments.
As early as now, we should start thinking of ways on how to invest our money. Remember that the earlier you start with financial planning, the earlier it is for you to attain financial freedom and success!
What other types of investment have you tried? Are they really profitable? If they are, then please feel free to share your stories!

Love is in the air?
Anyway, while hearing all these cute and romantic stories, I can't help but think of how my own engagement would play out. Now, that's what you call wishful thinking! :) Still, it wouldn't hurt to think about it, right? If I were the one being proposed to, I would definitely appreciate receiving a ring. It would be even better if I can get to pick among an assortment of diamond rings! Of course, a surprise engagement ring would be welcome too!
Do you have any cute engagement stories to share? Tell me, please! I always love hearing stories about romantic proposals!
Shopping for the Christmas season?
But before all that planning and budgeting, I need to make a list of the gifts that I plan to buy first. You see, thinking of the possible gifts to your friends and family is probably one of the most difficult task when it comes to gift-giving. You just never know if they're going to like what you've picked out for them or not. To be on the safe side, personal and practical gifts are always much appreciated. If you include a heartfelt letter with your gift, then they'll surely love it too!
Alright, here's to hoping that there will be more sales at the malls this Christmas season! :)

Interested in pumps?
I'm not an expert when it comes to pumps. I still can't differentiate the function of each type of pump. However, with continuous study, I hope I can get more acquainted with these different pump types. Maybe a year from now, I'd easily be able to discuss how a coolant pump works and be able to understand the basics of proper pump maintenance.
Anyway, for now, I have to get back to finishing a report. Got any info on pumps? Feel free to share it!
Busy week ahead!
Time management - two words that we frequently use yet can be a bit difficult to apply in our daily routine. Yes, it can be hard to do but I hope I can effectively manage my time, though. I really need to get all these tasks done.
Any effective time management tips you care to share?

Jobs to look out for
Personally, I think that the youth of today should seriously consider taking Computer Programmer Jobs. Whenever I log on to a job-hunting site, I would see hundreds of ads for computer programming job vacancies. I admit, I even feel a twinge of regret that I didn't take up something related to IT during my college years. Don't take it the wrong way, though. I'm still happy being an engineer. :)
Now, the biggest decision graduating high school students will be facing has to do with the path they want to take. Will they take practicality or go for what they truly want?

Did you ever want to become a doctor?
When we were kids, a lot of us probably wanted to wear baby scrubs, complete with a stethoscope, just to see how we would look like as doctors. I know I was one of those kids! Haha. Now, I don't regret that I took up engineering in college, though. It may not be what I have originally planned, but it's a profession that I'm proud to have. :)
What about you, though? What did you dream to be when you were a child? Did you push through with it or did your plans change as you grew up?

Are you on Goodreads?
There are other alternatives to Goodreads, if you're looking for something else. One of the most popular book-related social networking site is Shelfari. I also have an account there, but it isn't really active. I like Goodreads layout and features much better, I think. Plus, I think there are more book bloggers over at Goodreads.
Let's share our bookshelves! Add me up on Goodreads!

Looking for Christmas gifts?
If you'd like to give something personalized to your friends, why not have a special coin made for them? You can give them military coins or music-inspired coins, depending on what your friends' interests are! Sounds cool, huh? I'm not sure how much these things cost, but I think the price would be worth it. After all, the coins are pretty unique!
Any other ideas for your Christmas gifts? Share them, please!

Accidentally deleted my blogroll!
It seems like I've just deleted my blogroll. And I honestly don't know how it happened.
If you were in my blogroll before, just leave a comment here and I'll add you right back!
How my blog looked like before
So, I tried to revert to the same layout earlier. However, if I do that, I would have to re-install all my widgets here and that would just take too much time and effort. I'll have to postpone changing my layout till I have enough free time, I guess.
By the way, this Alexa tool is called the Wayback Machine. Try it too if you're feeling nostalgic and want to bring back old blog memories!

Secure your personal belongings.
For your security, you can use the rfid blocking wallet. It's a wallet that protects your financial and personal information from being stolen (without it actually being physically taken). If I were to get a credit card, I would consider buying this wallet too!
So if you own a lot of credit cards, why don't you take a look at some information on this wallet? I don't know how much it costs, but if it will give you financial security, then the price might be worth it. Try and research on it and see for yourselves!
The Three Musketeers movie!
For fans of Lord of the Rings and Pirates of the Caribbean out there, Orlando Bloom is included in the cast for The Three Musketeers so maybe you'd want to see this too! I hope they do a good adaptation of this book. Since the book is very long, I don't expect them to show every scene that happened in the novel, but I hope they don't leave out any important parts. :)
Anyway, have you heard if there's also going to be a movie adaptation of The Count of Monte Cristo? Has it already been made into a movie before?
Sunday, October 16, 2011
Still have a lot to do
- Update my other blogs. Maintaining several blogs can be quite difficult, especially when it comes to posting new entries in them.
- Make a list for my Christmas gifts shopping. I know it's still months away and I don't even have shopping money for it yet, but it's better to prepared, right? I don't know what my friends and family would like? Would my girl pals like some feminine stuff? Or will they appreciate my giving them something different for a change, like special-flavored cigars? Hmm, I might have to look at some cigar brands to figure out which one they'd care to have.
- Study! I still need to learn a lot so browsing some of my college textbooks would be a great help!

Have you seen New Girl?
If you're looking for a new TV show to watch, why don't you try New Girl? If you're in the mood for some good laughs, then this show will definitely not disappoint. Speaking of funny shows, have you heard that the new season of Chuck will be airing in just a few weeks. From what I've read, I think the first episode will be shown by the end of October (I'm not sure about the exact date). I'm sure every fan of the show is excited to see Chuck, Sarah, Casey, and the rest of the gang again!
Anyway, try seeing the pilot of New Girl and tell me if you liked it too!

I want a new phone!
I would probably just buy a new phone when I've saved enough cash or when my phone starts getting worse to the point that I can use it conveniently anymore. A phone's purpose is to get you easier to be reached by your contacts so there's not much point in having one if it frequently loses power, anyway. Still, I don't plan on buying a new phone right now so I need to take better care with what I have right now. :)
By the way, what model would you recommend to me if I were to buy a new mobile phone?

Want to see Adam Levine on a billboard!
And while you're at it, you can give away freebies - like free photos, shirts, and all Adam Levine-related things! Sorry, I'm getting all excited being a fangirl here. :) But seriously, I think it would do a lot for their sales if Adam Levine starts promoting their products. I know I'm going to frequent the nearest clothing shop to me just to see a poster of him.
Come on, fellow Adam Levine fans! Don't you wanna see him on a billboard too?

Blog Feature
I'm not sure when I'll be doing this, though. I need to make a list of those blogs first! Of course, I already have my favorites, but I need to add more to that. Maybe you could do the same too? Make a list of your favorite blogs and I'll try to visit them too! This is a great way to develop your blog network and make new blogger friends!
Sunday, October 2, 2011
Layout update?
Another reason why I'm hesitating whether I should change my layout or not is my anxiety for the possible (?) disappearance of my widgets. I'm not that savvy when it comes to designing and tweaking templates so I guess I'm going to have to do more research on that before I change my layout. I've heard that there's a new way for a blog template to be changed without deleting the widgets, but I'm not sure how to do it.
Anyway, you'll know when I decide to change my layout! Don't forget to tell me your thoughts about it!

Party planning
The only thing that I know is that the organizers should first decide on a concept. What do you want the party to be about? Is it a fairy-tale inspired birthday party? Or are you intent on inviting work colleagues for a more formal type of get-together? In that case, maybe you should hold a golf-themed party! I know that there are a lot of Golf Invitations suppliers out there, should you ever have a need for them. Personally, I've never attended a golf-themed party, but it sure sounds posh and classy - definitely something that corporate professionals would like to attend.
Sometimes, I feel like I'm so clueless about these socializing stuff that I need to take some kind of crash course just to know more about it. Haha. Does anybody know if these classes do exist?

What to talk about
Before, I used to have a clear outline of what I'm going to be writing about for a particular day. Now, though, I just talk about whatever I could think about. That doesn't mean that I don't take writing seriously. I still put a lot of effort in blogging. It's just that my entries now are more spontaneous. I'm not sure if you can consider that a good or a bad thing.
However way you see it, I'm still happy with the way I blog. It may not be perfect, but I know that I really talk about what my true thoughts about certain topics.

Need new clothes
However, if I find something that really catches my eye, I'd definitely be willing to make it an exception to my anti-shopping decree! Hmm, I wonder what type of clothes that would be? Would it be some of these funny t-shirts? Or would it be something stylish and trendy? Either way, they would have to be really worth it to make me part from some hard-earned money. Haha.
Come to think of it, I'm so behind on what's the latest in the fashion world! Not that I used to care a lot about it before, but well, it never hurts to know about these things, right?

Commuting etiquette
It all comes down to respecting other people's private space. Remember that you all paid the same amount of money to get on that ride. That means you need to give each passenger what is due to them. Don't go spreading your legs wide open and making yourself really comfortable to the point that others will have to suffer. Think about the things others might do that can irritate you and try your best to avoid doing the same.
I'll be talking more about this in some of my other blog entries so you better wait for those!

Lots of fun with tomato battles!
Are you looking for a new kind of fun activity, preferably something you’ve never tried before? Have you ever considered participating in a tomato battle? It definitely sounds fun and from what I’ve heard, it’s a game that’s quickly earning popularity all over the world. If you want to know more about tomato battle, then stick around as I’ll be talking more about this particular activity.
Personally, I’ve never tried being a part of a tomato battle before. I’ve heard stories about it, but I didn’t realize how big an even it actually could be. In my mind, throwing tomatoes was just a game played by a small group of people. For some of you guys, throwing tomatoes can denote dissatisfaction with something that’s being presented – like a play or a concert. Little did I know that people actually play a tomato battle – complete with the mechanics and appropriate venue for the game.
Now, do you want to try your hand at playing tomato battle too? If you’re excited to be a part of this game, then you don’t have to worry as you have a lot of opportunities to do so! There are several tomato battles that will be coming your way, one of which is the Midwest Tomato Fest! Just make sure that you stay tuned and look out for the scheduled date for the event!
If you’re planning to participate in it, then you better start learning more about the how the game is played. Start studying the mechanics and get ready for the battle!

Where are the pictures?
Still, I can't deny that pictures make blog entries much more interesting. It's true! You'll be more inclined to look at a post with pictures than one that's just all plain text, right? Yeah, I should definitely try to put some images within my posts.
What kind of pictures should I use, though? Can I just use pictures from different sources in the internet and just indicate where I got it? Should I use pictures that I took with a camera? It doesn't really matter, anyway, as long as its relevant to what the blog entry is about. :)

Who's pregnant on Gossip Girl?
So, who do you think is pregnant? Obviously, the writers want the viewers to think it's Blair, if only to create more conflict in her messy love life. (Isn't it convoluted enough as it is?) However, if they really want to surprise the viewers, I think they'd go for another character - someone that would be really impossible to think of as pregnant. Any guesses? Anyway, whoever this character is, will we see her shopping for cheap maternity dresses or expensive ones? Is it someone from the Upper East Side or not?
Your guess is as good as mine. :) I guess we'll all know the answer to that after seeing the season's first episode!

Busy times
In the meantime, I need to have a blogging schedule - one that would take into account my working hours and other activities. Speaking of other activities, that reminds me, I've yet to organize the set of pictures we took on our Manila Ocean Park trip. They weren't taken with olympus digital cameras and the picture quality isn't as good as that of an SLR's, but they're still pretty fun to look at! Come to think of it, I should have them printed too!
So, any suggestions for my blogging schedule? Do you think I should post new entries at least three times a week? :)

Gossip Girl spoilers?
So, there are a lot of spoilers on the net already, and although I'm excited to know more about what happens next, there's still a part of me that doesn't want to read too much of them. Why? I want to be surprised with what the writers have cooked up for the fans!
And what about Blair Waldorf's very confusing love life? Well... I'm on Team Dan right now, but that might still change once the show airs. :)

It's the start of the -ber months! The Christmas season is here!
I guess now's the time to start saving up for the holidays to come. Now, if you have a special someone to spend Christmas with, then I suggest you better start thinking of ideas for your christmas gifts for him 2011. Make sure to make him feel appreciated and loved by looking for something unique and special to give to him as a gift! That's just the romantic in me talking, so forgive me if I'm starting to sound too cheesy. Haha.
Anyway, happy gift hunting!
Loving the new blogging interface!
The improvements are really handy, especially if you're into increasing your blog traffic and statistics. And even if you aren't, well, I'm sure you'll agree that the new layout looks much, much better - definitely more modern and stylish!
Still, there's still so much room for improvement. I wonder if the admin have some sort of suggestion box where bloggers can file all their recommendations to improve their blogging experience?

Spread the Honda love!

Over the years, Honda has become a trusted name when it comes to delivering trusted performance to our car/transportation needs. Now, with their sponsorship of several mini-documentaries and idents on Channel 4, consumers will surely get to know more about the brand and how it affects people's daily lives.
The Channel 4 documentaries will be featuring the stories of individuals who make use of their Honda products in unique ways. For example, there's Philippa, an Alpaca breeder who uses her Honda ATV to tend the animals on her farm. Can you imagine that? So, if you think that you have no other use for your Honda cars than just to help you get to the nearest mall or any other commercial establishment, then think again. There are actually a lot of ways on how you can make your Honda cars of good use. As for me, if I had my own Honda product, like Phillipa, I would also try to make use of it in a way that can help me make a living.
If you want to read more unique stories of how consumers use their own Honda products, then come and check out their online hub! Here you can see the other available documentaries about our other quirky Honda product users. If you have your own story to tell on how you use your Honda car in an unique way, feel free to post it at the 'Take part' section of the online hub. If your story gets selected by W+K, then it will get turned into its own mini-documentary and TV idents. Cool, huh?
What are you waiting for? Visit their online hub now to get to know more about these amazing Honda users!

Book disappointments
Missing coffee
- I usually avoid drinking coffee in the morning before going to or during work because I'm afraid that it's going to give my stomach a funny feeling later on. Gross, I know! Haha.
- During weekends, I'd rather have a cup of Milo (chocolate-flavored drink) than coffee. What can I say? I'm a Milo fan. :)
- I'm saving up so I'm doing my best to stay away from Starbucks right now, no matter how much I love their coffee.

Gift ideas for the graduates
Before anything else, please do remember that whomever it is that you will be giving a gift to, then more often than not, they will surely appreciate it more if you give them personal gifts for graduates, and not just some random object that you happen to see (no matter how expensive it is).
1. Give them something useful - something that they can use at work, school, or at home.
2. Think about their interests and hobbies, then make your gift related to what he/she is passionate about.
3. Don't overspend! Make sure that your gift is within your budget. After all, it's not about the price tag, right?

Slept for more than eight hours!
Speaking of blogging, I'm not sure if I've mentioned this already, but I've started two new blogs! There's not much updates there still, but within the weekend, I hope to finish with the blogs' makeovers and then get on with writing more blog entries.
