Did I say that I saw my face on a book?
Did I say that I saw my face on a book?
Yet another off topic for the week.
Yes, I did saw my face on a book “Exploring Bohol†when me and my girlfriend visited Ayala – National Bookstore to check on new stuffs just hours ago. She’s been telling me about it years ago but it’s just that I don’t believe it and I never cared about it. Just a while ago she took the book and showed me how pitiful I look way back in college. Hahaha.. Wow! Can’t imagine myself stuck in that book and when I tried checking on other related books still my pitiful face was there!

Confident of being a High Performer?
Are you confident that you can land a high paying job because you’re a high performer especially if you’re in sales and marketing? Watch out because recruiters together with headhunters are now so careful on assessing potential high post.

ASEAN being left behind?
The 13th ASEAN Summit in Singapore is now over. What now? Each 10-member Countries of the Association of South-East Asian Nations (ASEAN) now have one full year to ratify the 1st ASEAN Constitution signed on the 20th of November 2007 (last week) on their respective countries. Once all 10 members ratify it, the ASEAN Constitution will take full effect on the 14th ASEAN Summit, and from there on we will truely see where we – the ASEAN Citizens – are really going to be in the future, and in this New World Order of growing regional communities and unions.
I said “regional communities and unions†when in reality there are so few communities today than 5+ years ago. Are you aware that the African Economic Community (AEC) is now known as the African Union (AU), going by the tagline An Efficient and Effective African Union for a New Africa, forming 53 African States and founded on 2001?

Sex First Before Relationship
I don’t know about you guys but this is what I actually believe in. Probably you would say that it is quite normal to me since I am gay but that is not really the case.

I am not a sex expert or a leading counselor of relationships but this is just a normal person’s point of view and aside from that the readers of this blog can also share their own perceptions as well which is a very lovely thing to do.

Is your communication skill killing you?
This has been the most common dilemma that our job seekers wanted to cope with and has been the source of frustrations to some. Have you taken a long, hard look at how well you communicate with others lately? I bet the answer is “no”. Well, I suggest that periodically you review how good you are at being clear in your conversations with others, your writing of letters, reports, etc., and your effectiveness in presenting information or delegating work because this is the key on how confident you can be in closing deals especially if you’re a job seeker. To date, BPO is the hottest industry and most of our fresh graduates have wanted to join the bandwagon but without the English accent and fluency on other various languages you’re not welcome not unless if your tech geek.
