Super Summer In The Philippines- Just Nearby!

Image
A Weekend Getaway or a Stay-cation      It will be up to you to judge, as you see the venue was a stone throw away from my cousin's place in Bulacan, Philippines! Despite the humidity and scorching heat of the sun, my cousins and I went swimming at a nearby resort which featured kiddie pools...      Look! Some creatures from the age of the dinosaurs joined, too! He he!          JB here, enjoying the pool...      Only in our neighborhood--- a dinosaur ready to dip into the pool! ;-)      JB truly enjoyed swim-walking by the frog!      The slides also are super cool!      ...Especially with a spritzer! Haha!      Another slide...      Next, the frog slide... A photo op with The Voice who incidentally was having their search at Sitio Lucia Resort.         ...

Box in a Bus     O n my way to a friend's house, I decided to ride a bus. When the bus reached the bus stop, a man carrying this box which the bus ticket inspector helped load just in front of my seat.                                                                                                            An interesting box of Selecta ice cream...                       ...endorsed by a host of a local TV station who's in the hot seat these days.   ;-)

Rooms For Improvement: Manila Business Permit Processing

Image
Suggestion Box Needed      J anuary calls for a lot of office duties for our office staff. These include renewal permits and licenses,  insurances and everything that fall under securing what is necessary for your business.       A nd just like every year, Manila City Hall looks like this...filled with waiting (tired, thirsty and hungry) people. You have to a lot a whole day waiting for your papers to be processed. You might as well cancel any appointment you have on that day. And if you are your own boss, prepare for a day (make that 3 days) without profit for your business, since you can't be at your office while waiting for your papers (which will only be ready a month after regardless if they're releasing a tin business plate or a computer-generated certificate ;-) ) Alas, you will also discover that you will at least visit the place three (3) times because to be able to process your papers, you need to have a Business Resident Certificate...

Past D ay 1 in the Chinese Calendar         W ow! There was no traffic along Munoz (Quezon City area)...     E ven 8th Street in Caloocan City is almost empty! T he traffic at 5th Avenue is picking up after our turn...      Ah, yes, there's the building up of cars and vehicles at this side from Divisoria after the turn. S ome areas have few vehicles,but the major intersections are filling up once in a while...      F elt hungry, so we went to 999 Mall to eat at a fastfood restaurant...Sad to know that they don't have nai cha and braised beef - the group's all time fave food to eat at this fastfood chain.      S o, off we went to Lucky China Mall!   O n the Ground floor, we saw the "Money" tree!  O MG, there's a huge crowd inside as we went on the second floor to check for some nice restaurants...  M ore people coming in... ...
