Cake Garden Place Cinnamon summer is now breezing in and if you're planning to take a next trip to Bohol, do check out Cake Garden Place.  Cake Garden Place is located at Unit 6, Seaview Apartment, Bool District Tagbilaran City.  It's one block away from the Sandugo Shrine and 15-20 minutes away from the city proper.  It gives you an aery feel to your Bohol experience. Englewood Hospital is also just around the corner should there be any emergency arise.  Basically you're smacked right in the middle between the Dauis Junction and Baclayon, in other words you can have the best of both places. The main package is 3,300Php good for 4 persons.  Two bedrooms fully air-conditioned, one common bathroom/toilet, fully functional kitchen with refrigerator, WIFI and cabled TV.  The best part probably is waking up to a scenic and peaceful sunrise with free breakfast served fresh and hot.  It is overlooking the island of Panglao and also sunsets are a...

To Train Up a Child To spank or not to spank?  That is the question but before going futher I suggest you read the previous post, " Training ". Not quite Shakespearian but there has been an uproar from netizens regarding the anti-spanking bill that has just passed first reading .  To give you what's going on, the Positive Discipline Act of 2011 passed the first reading at the House committee on the welfare of children.  The bill is co-authored by Tarlac Representative Susan Yap and Bagong Henerasyon Rep. Bernadette Herrera-Dy.   Bagong Henerasyon Rep. Bernadette Herrera-Dy earlier this year urged Aquino  to list bill against spanking children as priority . She authored House Bill 1082 that protects the child from all forms of corporal punishment and threats of physical harm that may be imposed as a disciplinary action by parents, guardians, teachers and elders. HB 1082 prohibits the imposition of all manners of corporal punishment and ot...

Hello! Bohol Logo Draft Hello! Bohol was my take on HelpDOT . If you don't have any idea what I'm talking about, read various sources here , here and here . Anyway, the Department of Tourism (they really need to update their website by the way) launched a new program last November 2010 called " Pilipinas Kay Ganda ".  A lot of things went down after that.   #HelpDOT is still an active twitter hashtag up until now and you can also visit the #HelpDOT Daily here .  Below is TeamManila 's contribution to HelpDOT.

I love taking side projects especially for Bible-believing churches.  I think I should start a section to showcase these projects but for now here are some of my favorites.  I'm currently available for side projects including blog tweaking.  All of these projects so far are for free (especially for churches).  Another thing is that I don't really know how to put a price mainly because I'm an amateur.  This is just a hobby while trying also to help others at the same time.  You can contact me at emigrino83@yahoo.com or you can use my savvy contact form here .

Whats up doc? Click me! A Chronicle. I wore one of my brand new scrubs today and a couple of fellow nurses were calling me doc.  My sister and I will be re-taking (emphasis on re-) the NMAT in Manila this coming April 10.  Somehow the school that we're targeting for has new policy for medical students and thus we need to catch up, if we can.  I've always wanted to be a doctor since I was a kid.  I don't know why but I'm quite sure it's not about the glamor (because it isn't) and money. I know I have screwed up big time during my first year in college, it was supposed to be my ticket on pursuing med school but alas, the folly of youth overtook me and thus led to me to a different path.  But somehow, God meant it to be good. Inception When we relocated to Bohol, I shifted to Nursing.  It was also during that time Nursing was in the all time high (I can't believe it's almost 10 years now).  I also heard news that some of my friends and classma...

[tweet] /via [username] isn't the same as RT [username]: [tweet] I've been using "RT" and "via" to retweet.  In the back of my mind I know something is wrong and that there is a difference between the two but I did not bother to Google it until I was reading Maxvoltar .  Lo and behold at the bottom of the sidebar where you can find tidbits of wisdom it says:  " [tweet] /via [username] isn't the same as RT [username]: [tweet] ".  I know I have been procrastinating to find an answer before but I had to Google it, stat! Glad I found the article "RT" vs "via" by atebits and summarize it: What I found recently is that “RT” and “via” don’t mean the same thing. “RT” is typically used for verbatim retweets, sort of like the equivalent of “Fwd” for those chain emails your grandmother still sends you where Bill Gates will pay you money if you forward it to 10 people. “via” on the other hand is used when you want to add your o...

NursePress is my nursing blog which I started last year.  One of the reasons why I started a nursing blog is that it's been a long time that I have actually practiced my profession.  After graduation I went to Makati, traveled all over Luzon but on the last year of May, I know that I was overdue to really go back to the profession.  The blog at first was just random posts about nursing, resources and events.  I later found out that there were better blogs doing that kind of stuff so the blog was again put into a halt.  I really plan to revive this blog this year.  I want to focus more on learning because Nursing is a profession that is personal and is on a constant change.  It's one of the noblest jobs but it's also one of the dirtiest professions around.  The blog as a 170+ followers on Facebook  and 180+ followers on Twitter .  I think it's quite stellar to have that amount of followers for a newbie blogger like me.  Anyway, I've...

Blogger I'm now officially back blogging on Blogger  though Sixteen Eleven  and All Things Black & White  will always be on WordPress .  I love WordPress.com, it's the most powerful blogging platform up to date but I miss all the tweaking with a little bit of code here and there.  Blogger is also a good platform, not as powerful  as WordPress but definitely worth the competition since Google owns it.  I think anytime they can just revamp the whole platform and add great functionalities that would definitely rival WordPress.  But that time hasn't come yet,  one of these days, I think.  So here are the tweaks that I've made since getting back.
