up there but down there



Learned something today on my client call. Yeah. Thought it'd just be business.


Lifestyle. That's what we talked about. Live by your means. Don't succumb to peer pressure. But sometimes you have to taste it to live it.


Just look at your limit. Live with your limit. When you're living in the corporate world, you tend to get the perks. Blackberry. Business Class. BMWs. The complete B. But you have to differentiate THAT world from your own world. Why? Because it's not you. Definitely not you. You have your home, your family, your friends. Then there's your corporate friends, business friends, party friends and then there's peer pressure. It's kinda tiresome to catch up with things. Specially your lifestyle. You tend to catch up with your friends and live a life that is not yours.


Just step down. Put your foot down. And be humble. Enjoy what you have. Love what you have. Live what you have. Living in a corporate world is not easy. And when you get home, relax. Don't place your family in the corporate world. Because once you've tasted chocolate, you tend to eat the whole box.


As Casey Casem once said "Keep your feet on the sky...and keep reaching for the ground." Gets?

fries, fries and everything nice



Had lunch with the kids at McDonald's Ayala and YES to say it boldly...the BEST FRIES EVER!


I tried to compare it with the other brand, even with the burger, but then the other doesn't get any better at every grind. Yikes! And then again there are others like the BACONATOR in Wendy's Auckland, NZ, then Burger King and then there's even Burger Joint's Wasabe Burger! But with the fries...nothing beats McDonald's Fries!


Eat it without ketchup, I can even wander around, floating endlessly, imagining things and still putting the fries in my mouth. Not like the other. After a minute, you tend to spit it out. It's like eating raw potato. It should be fries not potato. So every time I eat out, it's always McDonald's because it's fries, fries and everything nice. =)
