Imee-Irene Twin Falls

We went to my home town November last year to visit my Father. I was born in Camarines Norte. We live in one of the barangays near Sta. Elena and around 45 minutes drive to Labo. 
During my elementary years, we always swim in the river every lunch break (it is like picnic for us). At 1pm, you'll see us having red eyes and wet shorts. The teacher would notice but doesn't care much.

Another place I found is the Imee-Irene twin falls near Sta. Elena in Camarines Norte. The place is about 15-ish minutes drive from our Barangay. It was built from the help of the local government but unfortunately, it is not properly being maintained. From the main road, there is a concrete road going to the falls. 50 meters from the end of that road, you need to walk to a muddy and slippery road. Still, the Barangay will charge 20 pesos per person. Daytime robbery, isn't it?

There is no cottage. You will have to find an area to put your things. There is a toilet where you can change your clothes. No shower unfortunately. I hope the local government will re-construct the damage structures and maintain it so that people can continue enjoy the place.

Microsoft Office365

Let's be honest about it. Apple office document apps sucks. Although, I am using Macbook 12-inch model as my personal laptop, I hate their office apps not because they are buggy or not user-friendly; but because of their limited adoption. Few people are using it (none of my friends and colleague uses it). I cannot use it in my work because people will curse me. There is only one instance where I used it, i.e. during our hackaton event. That's it.  As expected, like any office worker; I am a regular user of Microsoft Office, i.e. word, powerpoint and excel. I bought office365 since it is cheaper and you always get the latest version. I am using it for 2 years now and my license will end August of this year (August 08, 2018 to be exact). I bought my last 2 licenses from lazada.com.ph for less than 2,000 pesos. As I don't want to lose my access to onedrive.com and office apps; I bought a new 1 year license from lazada.com.ph for 1,499 pesos inclusive of the shippi...

Earthwood Guitar String

My daughter requested a guitar because she wants to learn playing the instrument. We went to SM North to and buy the guitar at JB music store for 900+ pesos. She picked the gray-ish color. It is a beginner's guitar and with the price, I would say, the quality is average. But you can buy the same quality guitar at RJ music store at slightly lower price. One thing that she doesn't like is the strings which is painful to the fingers since they are very 'hard' (not sure if that is the right term though). So I checked Amazon to get some 'soft' guitar strings. Luckily, I found Earthwood that has a good reviews. I ordered and ship the item through my-shoppingbox.com. After almost 15 days, I received the strings. I replaced the old strings and tuned them using an Android App. It really made a big difference playing with Earthwood strings. It is more forgiving to the fingers and has a better sound quality (I am not a musician - just an opinion).  My daughter is n...
