I would like to thank Roberto Rochas for my eyewear
It is the norm in local showbiz that stars thank their "sponsors & friends" at the end of their spiels. Whether it be an interview or guesting at a talk show, variety show, gossip show, morning show, whatever show. Kulang na lang, pati sa primetime news. My broadcast communications instructor said that...

Letter from a Mother and a Future Expat in Phnom Penh
I blog mainly to express myself and to record the details of my life. But I am very happy that besides being an outlet for my thoughts, I also have the opportunity, through my blog, to help other people. These people are mainly future FSOs, and recently, future expats and tourists to Cambodia, who have been emailing me asking about life in this country I have called home for almost six years now. I have published the first of these letters in the post Do’s and Dont’s in Cambodia. Today, I am publishing an email letter I received last month from a concerned American mother who is about to move to Phnom Penh next year with her family which includes two teen-aged kids.
Dear Toe,
My name is I. and I commented on your Do’s and Don’ts in Cambodia a few days ago and really enjoyed it. My family and I are moving to Phnom Penh next summer and I hope to meet you then and we can exchange stories. Anyway, my husband and I are very excited about living in Cambodia, but we do have a few concerns about teenagers living in Phnom Penh.

Young Professionals Environmental Club (YPEC)
By Naysan Albaytar and Homar Murillo
(blogsite: http://ypec.wordpress.com/)
YPEC: The Beginning
Bringing Back the Christmas Breeze: A Look at Global Warming, Greenhouse Effect, and the Simple Solutions that We Can Offer… It all started with a blog post, a post that has turned the spark into a flame and fueled the desire to do something for the rescue of Mother Earth.
A lot of articles about the environment have already been written and published – its present condition and the problems it faces in the midst of technological developments. Realizing that something has to be done beyond words and print, several young professionals have joined together to take steps towards saving the environment. The Young Professionals Environmental Club (YPEC) was born.
The young professionals in our society are the ones who will take the place of our leaders in the future. They are the ones who will be the future foundations of families, the prime movers of change. Therefore, young professionals should be aware of our society’s pressing problems. They should develop the spirit of initiative in facing and solving these problems. It is only then can they be really prepared to take the place of the leaders, ready to provide the people direction towards a better life. It is only then can they be really ready to become strong foundations of families, capable of preparing their children to take on responsibilities as able successors in leading the society and founding families when their turn comes.
