Millionaire Tycoon: Tips and Secrets

I'm being addicted to Millionaire Tycoon. I'm now on the Paris level and I just stopped for a while to write this post. Basically, Millionaire Tycoon is a board game on iPhone/iPod Touch. Its goal is to eliminate the computer players by making them go bankrupt. Like in Monopoly, you have to toss the dice, walk the necessary number of steps and you can purchase land and upgrade buildings. Each time another player lands on your property, you get paid...

The Wordpress Design Quest

I'm on a quest to learning Wordpress Design and it ain't that easy for me who is a PHP and CSS idiot. I think I'm learning the whole concept of PHP and CSS. I just need to understand the structure now. I followed the Wordpress Tutorial I found, but the result was with little success. I got the essential parts right - basically you just need to understand what the codes are all about and copy-paste the given codes to the appropriate files and other places. I guess, if you understand the concept and is not so much of a coding beginner like me, it's going to be so much easier. After reading some other tutorials and studying other templates,...

My Journey to Online Part Time Jobs

Although a lot of my fantasies include going back time and changing everything since I was in first grade, I obviously cannot do that. So I'm kinda moving on. Back when I was in highschool, I got so interested in HTML and making websites that I actually self-studied how to code HTML. I never got to study it in school and regrettably, in college, but I'm still very interested in it. I've never forgotten the basics and now I'm using some of my knowledge in some of my work. I believe that if I really want to learn something, I can self-study it and not spend fortunes going to special classes. Now that I'm looking for some new skills to aid me...

Things My Mama Told Me: Choose your Friends!

Sometimes, just how mothers talk to us, right? With an exclamation point. There is one point in our life when our mothers would usually yell at us, no matter what they’re saying. Anyway, there you go. Choose your friends. And I hated this before because my mother never really liked any of my friends. She only liked those who were at the top of the class. If they weren’t she’d be skeptical about them and how were they going to contribute to my life. Yes, I didn’t listen to my mom. Although those kids who were at the top of my class were my buddies when we started, slowly I was left behind. Maybe it was a bit of rebellion that I experienced when...

5 Really Important Things to Do Before Turning 25

In less than 20 days from now, I’ll be turning 25. For the past years of my life, I really paid little attention to my birthday. I was never really excited and never really anticipated anything. Recently, I thought that it’s really sad that I’m almost apathetic to my birthday while others celebrate, party hard or can hardly sleep thinking of surprises and presents from loved ones. It’s a little inevitable though during birthdays that one is taken...

Full-Glass-Empty

Is the glass half-full or half-empty? When I was in fourth grade, I chose half-full - only because my seatmate gave away the secret behind the psychological question. Even after I raised my hand with those who chose to be positive, I still kept thinking, is it really half-full or half empty? God knows I spent a few minutes staring at the glass drawing on the chalkboard until the teacher erased it. If the glass is full to its brim, then what if it...
