Welcome to the Christian world, my son!

MJ is now a Christian. March 18 was the day when my first born received the Holy Sacrament of Baptism.

He has a lot to look forward to in his life. This is just the start. 2 months in this world and the happiness he has brought us is truly amazing.

Man, I love my kid.

WELCOME TO THE CHRISTIAN WORLD, MY SON!

Here we go again . . .

The Global financial crisis is just around the corner. Stock markets tumbling down with no clear reason. This is something that we all need to watch out for. From Europe to Bangkok, the market is reaching its pinnacle for disaster.

This will test the resiliency of the global economy. Any growth spurt will always be followed by a drastic downtrend. Everything that goes up must come down.

Let's see how each country reacts to this economic outage. If the fundamentals are right, then there is no need to worry. But if the financial state of each nation was "window-dressed" to serve its political interest, then the leaders must be hanged.

The tumbling global market, HERE WE GO AGAIN!

Mobile Age

From cellphones to computers. WOW! Technology is ever changing.

Not so long ago, having a telephone at home was tough. Now, not having a cellphone is tougher.

The mobile age has come. Desktop to laptops, stereo to ipods, man, DOESN'T anyone stay still these days?

Tell you what, I am very surprised to see that more and more people are carrying these gadgets around all the time. The more surprising fact, MOST OF THEM ARE TEENAGERS.

God, the technology sector is really booming. An expanded market means a huge consumer base. Business must really be doing well. These innovations are simply amazing.

The Mobile age, WOW!

HEALTHY ADULT . . .

I'm not.

I have to be very honest. 280 pounds isn't normal except if you're Shaquille O'Neal. Even with a 6 Foot frame, I don't think my weight is normal. I don't look obese though, that's a point open for argument.

Not too long ago, I used to be a basketball player. Now, all I can be is either a team manager or a head coach.

How time flies . . . But really, being healthy is alot to ask for if you become an adult. Of course you have to take into consideration a lot of things before going to the gym. This is not an excuse, I know. But believe me, its tough.

When I was still in school, I asked my late father, "Dad, why don't you work out?" He gently replied, "That's why I'm cleaning the car and doing some household chores during the weekend. This is my exercise. I just couldn't find the time to walk in the park."

I didn't understand then, but I do now. The tough workplace environment forces us to neglect one basic aspect of life: HEALTH. I tell you guys, it ain't worth it. At my age, my blood pressure already reached 170/100. And with this in mind, I realized that I had to watch my diet and protect my health. What I would do to regain my healthy built.

Well, I'm working on it. It's going to be a challenge but I know I can do it. My motivation: of course, my family.

A healthy adult, I hope I can become . . .

Valentines Day

Is there such a day?

I have been amazed on how this day has evolved. Hearts flying everywhere. Chocolates and flowers filling up the streets. Restaurants filled with dating couples.

Yes. It's valentines day.

The question remains, is there really such a day?

Many may argue, some may even frown. But I sincerely believe that this day has been developed by business establishments and other marketing giants. I don't think LOVE created this day. Profits did.

Oh well, what can we do? It's there. I'll just make the most out of it. 

Valentines day - what a marketing product.
