Speedy Provider.

Paul’s computer shop is doing well recently. Since it is vacation time, the shop is often packed with kids playing their favorite online games, teens who religiously update their friendster profiles and those who are avid youtube watchers. All of these would require a good, steady and fast internet bandwidth, thus, Paul invested on a good broadband internet provider.

I’ve stumbled upon Eclipse Internet on the web and I was amazed with their business broadband deals. Imagine, you get ultra fast downloads up to 8 Mbps (we only have about 1 Mbps) and fast upload speeds. Further, they offer unlimited downloads for a fixed price, free telephone calls, reliable support teams, free and easy switching from other broadband providers, a referral scheme, extra flexibility with the option of one-month contracts and free setup and hardware. Depending on the business size, they have flexible packages that suit your needs and requirements.

How I wish we also get to have such broadband deals in the country. I’m sure Paul’s customers will be happier and more satisfied. If that would be our download speed, I will also be one of the happiest here as I get to download lots of digiscrapping kits with just a blink of an eye. Lolz. 

Small Blessings.

More often than not, most of us are caught up pressured amidst life’s hustle and bustle. In reality, there comes a point when we are so engulfed with our wishes and desires that we tend to disregard and overlook what we have. There are times when we tend to take for granted and lose track the blessings that come our way. Regardless of our situation, we always have to be thankful no matter how little the blessings seem to be.

For today, these are the little things that I’m thankful for:

1. For the palatable adobo I had for lunch at our pantry. My colleagues and I very seldom dine and eat our concessionaire’s food in our pantry. I’ve been disappointed with their seemingly half-cooked and recycled cuisines. Since Joy is in scrimping mode and we were so lazy to dine out, we settled at the pantry today and luckily, I was not disappointed. At least, I also got to save a bit as my lunch only cost me Php 45.

2. Finally, my new email at work is now configured and up. I will no longer use my yahoo mail at work which has been quite “effortful” still, even with the Yahoo Mail Beta.

3. For the 30-minute-trafficless-safe drive from Makati to my in-laws’ abode in Frisco. Today is Thursday and weekend is nearing so that means, we have to be here and I'm just glad that the drive was comfortable and fast.

4. Miggy, Paul’s 4-yr old nephew, made mano to me when we got home. Usually and especially if he’s glued to the TV, we’re often unnoticed and ignored when we arrive. Tonight, he was in a good mood and even played with us for a while.

5. For the polite Citibank Customer Service Rep I talked with tonight when I clarified Paul’s billing statement. Paul is being charged with a late penalty fee of Php 300 for not paying the unpaid balance of Php 2.81 last month. The CSR was flexible and helpful naman unlike the other one whom Paul talked with this afternoon. She was a bit rude daw and was stiff in asking to pay the penalty charge.

6. For the little tiramisu that was left on the fridge. My voracious bro was kind enough to leave me some for dessert.

Small blessings…. I am thankful today for all these small blessings.

Online Registrations.

When we were preparing for our wedding, Paul and I would respond and attend to almost all bridal fair invitations that were sent to my email. Although, getting inside the venue was relatively easy for most of the fairs I attended because of their online registration, some still use the traditional and very tedious manual registration.

For big events as these, they must simplify their registration through an online system where participants just have to fill out quick online registration forms.

RegOnline is one of the largest online registration systems having processed over 3,714,613 registrations for more than 50,239 events worldwide. They offer simple and easy and user-friendly registration process at a very great deal. Their integration with SalesForce CRM Software recently aids even more the event professionals in achieving greater success with marketing and event follow-up.



New Site.

..And running.

http://www.mdanganan.info

Yes, I decided to add a new blog for my digiscrapping pursuit and named it "The Scrapaholic Me". I’ll be posting my newest layouts, buzz and all other digiscrapping stuffs there.

As you notice, I also bought a new domain and it’s good for one year. I wanted to have a .com domain but it’s quite pricey that’s why I settled with a .info for the mean time. (Actually, “.info” domains are on sale at $0.99/year). When I earn enough from my blogging rakets, I can probably get this blog its own .com domain, too.
