And I thought I won’t be able to join this writing project by Ms. Janette Toral. When I started blogging, I only want to document my travels and food trips, later on, this blog became a smorgasbord of some sorts aka “chopsuey”. Nevertheless, through this blog I have gained blogging friends and people whose blogs I frequently visit because I love their photos, I like reading their travel stories and I enjoy reading their mind-stimulating entries.

Here are my nominees for the Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs for 2009:

Scouting for good investment rates

July 12, 2009 by 4 Comments

For the past month, I’ve been checking out online websites of different banks to compare which bank gives the highest interest rates. When I was still single, I started out with BPI and when Jeff and I got married, we opened another account with BDO. Although we’re happy with both banks, it won’t hurt to look for other options that can give higher rates especially for a time deposit account. I’m eyeing the Perk Dollar Time Deposit of Asiatrust Bank which states that money can earn as much as 4.75% p.a. This is only a modest way to grow our money but at least, we get to save for our retirement early on. It may not be as high yielding as having a gold IRA, but as long as the money is safe, we’re gonna let it stay there for the meantime.

It’s raining, turn on the TV

July 10, 2009 by Leave a Comment

It’s rainy season here in the Philippines and it’s a bummer especially if you have plans of going out in the weekends. Of course, you can always brave the rain and go wherever you planned but for us, it’s such a hassle even if we have our own transportation. Aside from being gloomy, travelling in the streets of Metro Manila during a heavy downpour is accident-prone especially along Edsa, slow-moving traffic in some areas or floods in other areas. So what better way to pass the weekends is to cuddle up, cook your favorite home-cooked meal and watch TV. For the sports fanatic, you can buy NFL Sunday Ticket to watch your National Football League games.

You also get to save because with the NFL Sunday Ticket price, you can watch as many as 14 games with your ticket. That’s a good offer from Direct TV. Just check the NFL Sunday Ticket schedule to see the available NFL match ups for the day.
