My CDM AP Experience

I just need to breath for a while to take moment to mince my thoughts. Hmmm...yes I've been out for so long that I feel like I don't know how to write a blog anymore. Right now, I'm using my phone to write so forgive me if I have a few typos here and there. I promise to edit it later. Anyway, just need to share with you what's keeping me busy these days. Ofcourse you don't know that I have like 20 people on my team in the office. Heck you don't even know where I work now. Well, I really don't think that's important for now. What I really want to share with you now is my recent journey. I have recently enrolled myself to the Certified Digital Marketer Accelarated Program. Well I've already finished the 6 sessions including the youtube session but I have yet to get my official certification. Our final papers have yet to be graded according to the organizers but no rush naman. More important is the experience of attending the workshops. How do I find it? Well, I have indeed learned a lot, and I mean a lot from the sessions but at the end of it all, it's still a riddle at least for me on how best to implement plans. But at least we know how to plan! At this point I really feel that analysis paralysis is real! I have this huge amount of information that I already know how to organize and yet I just don't know how to start! I'm so glad our company for this and that I don't have to worry about getting my ROI or anything like most of my classmates. But the pressure to deliver is still the same. I'm glad that the expectations from the company is limited to that of just cascading the knowledge to the rest of the company or at least with marketing and sales. But I really feel frustrated or at the very least challanged with the potential of doing professional and well-thought of digital marketing programs. Hay, I'm not even sure what else we need to get things rolling. I think I just need a break from all these information and then come back with a refreshed mind. Problem is the more relax, the more I think of ways to do something! Damn!

Number 1 Restaurant: an unsolicited review

I just had to write about this great new family resto we've been liking since we found it! I'm not sure if they have other branches but I do pray they expand soon. I'm talking about a place called Number 1 Reataurant located at SM East Ortigas. First of all, I don't even know what type of restaurant it is because of the wide and i mean wiiiide array of choices that it offers. It's like a Jollibee, Tokyo tokyo, Bonchon and Mang Inasal rolled into one! Amazing! Second, the food is good. I can't say it's exceptional but it more than ok for a fast food joint. And lastly, the price is awesomely affordable! For a family of 5, we've been able to order for all of us a total of 5 dishes for only P577 drinks included! With the taste, spread and price, Number 1 resto is definitely something worth mentioning! Can't wait til our next visit!

Milleneals were able to save during the pandemic and they need to invest now

I got invited by people from Vista Residences to talk about Investing Tips for Millleneals.  This will happen on Dec 1 via their Official facebook account.  Please see here to registration link. https://www.vistaresidences.com.ph/  https://www.facebook.com/VistaResidencesOfficial/posts/3825522130801187 As I was mulling over the topic for my talk, I needed to do some research on this generation which has been misjudged and misunderstood by the older gen, including mine (Gen X).  But as I conclude my deck, I realized that every generation has gone through that stage in life where self-realization is a foremost need.  Sometimes more than financial stability, the need to find the self is I think one of the most important ideals for the said Gen Y.  This is evidenced by its high level of patronage of travel promos and DIY get away trips by most of the middle class even those belonging to the lower middle class.  I remember one of my staff in the office tel...

To OFWs: Starting your home purchase is the greatest decision you'll ever make

I have read a worrisome article from an OFW forum which has been shared and has circulated among OFW group communities. It mentioned that purchasing real estate may not be a good idea for OFWs. Apart from the fact that he the writer is trying to convince his audience to buy "stocks" as a form of investment, I am really not sure where he is coming from. I have been a daughter of an OFW since age 2. One of the earliest conversations with my dad circled around his reasons for not choosing to work locally. And the very first of these reasons was for us to have a decent home and a good life. 3 years into his work as a cashier in Jeddah, he bought a piece of land and 2 years after we moved into our unfinished house. Slowly over the years my mom would try to make major improvements like an extension or a interior finishing or a semi permanent partition which would later on form part of a still unfinished house and lot.  During that time there was no concept of a house and lot...
