Holiday Spirit

Ber months are coming and the spirit of Christmas will be felt worldwide. Local news says that Filipinos will have a sad Christmas but will that be true?

One sad reality nowadays is the high cost of living and the low income of employees. You work more than what is required and most of the time, more than your body could do and still the paycheck is not enough to feed you and your family. Rate of overqualified employees are found in low-salary jobs and still they are lucky enough to have a job while most are unemployed. Thus, the rate of poor and broke are getting higher in every minute now.

For me, money runs your life. You must earn something for a living. You need money to buy food, pay the rent and bills, and other stuffs. But still, having less shouldn’t mean that we should have a sad Christmas.

In today’s society, we already forgot the true meaning of it, Love, family and togetherness. It’s about giving and sharing your blessings to others. It’s having quality time with your loved ones.

Nowadays, you’re Christmas will only be Christmas when you have a lot of gifts and a lot of food for noche buenas. Many pity theirselves because they can’t have that glamorous Christmas that they dream of. And I feel sad for them. They have been blinded by the materialistic way of celebrating the holiday. GIfts and Noche Buenas are just a ‘part’ of the tradition. Thus, not having them doesn’t mean you’ll have a sad Christmas.

*sigh.

All i want to say is that, let us not forget the true spirit of it. To all, let us not teach our children that having a lots of gifts and pamasko is what Christmas is. Godparents should be the second parents who share proper values and guidance not the second financial source of children’s baon. Do not patch up the shortcomings with material goods. Being together should be the foundation of happiness for the season and not the things that will get out of it.

Christmas is sharing, giving and giving importance to blessings that we had in our lives. Happy Holidays. :)

Pagbabago

tamang sound trip.

pa-surf-surf.

nagpapalipas ng oras.

nagmumuni-muni.

ano na nga ba ang mga nangyari?

ang dami ng nagbago. Noon ganun yun, pero ngayon, ganito na.

pagbabago.

simple. tagalog. madali lang.

epekto ng pagbabago.

mahirap. mahirap tanggapin. kadalasan masakit. kadalasan nakakalungkot. kadalasan mahirap sabayan.

pagbabago.

madaling sabihin. mahirap simulan. nakakatakot. nakakapanghina ng loob.

pero di ba sa mga pagbabago ka natututo?

natututong bumagay. natututong sumunod sa agos ng buhay.

sabi nila, "walang permante sa mundo"... pwera sa pagbabago.

bakit meron nito?

para matuto. para magkakulay ang buhay. para maranasan. para matikman.

maiiwasan ba ito?

hindi.

CISCO Certification: A Must Have Certification

IT industry has been rapidly growing over the years. Many and many people has been switching into the world of computer but still there are still not enough professionals to fill-up the positions.

As time passes by, the qualifications for IT positions is getting higher and the numerous number of certifications has been a must in the content of every resume. High-salary paying companies prefer those people with great and reliable trainings and certifications.

One of the prominent certifications an IT professional can take are those by CISCO. CISCO offers trainings and certification for the vast world of computer networking.

Cisco certification has five categories: Entry, Associate, Professional, Expert, and Specialist. In college, we have taken the IP Networking (CCENT) as an elective in our curriculum. After graduation, most of my colleagues continued their CISCO training until Routing and Switching Associate (CCNA) and Routing & Switching Professional (CCNP). Many of them now are working in prestigious companies earning high salary.

Some of our schoolmates has joined the the CISCO competition and have won the contest. Besides the experience that they had from the the contests, some of them already has a job waiting for them after they had graduated. And those who have finished college already were hired in banks and big companies.

In the classified ads, there are bountiful opportunities for CISCO Certified Professionals. Many companies has included CISCO certification as part of there job requirement, thus, opening more and more jobs for IT professionals with high salary.

CISCO Technology topics includes the following:

• data center

• ip routing
  

• networking fundamentals

• network management

• optical networking

• router

• security

• storage

• switching

• telepresence

• virtualization

• voice / unified communications

• web services

• wireless

Taking CISCO certification is really a very good investment to yourself. A sure career and job will be waiting for you once you had your certificates.

My dream job was to be a networking engineer but due to lack of experience and certification, I was not qualified for the job. I am still planning to take my CISCO training maybe next year when my schedule would be a little flexible.

A Sneak Peak On My New Blogger Skin

I have been planning to skin my blogs for a very long time already. There are a bunch of stuffs to do that is why I can't manage to have a time.

I want a simple and manageable template so that my blog won't have a chaotic look.

Here is a peek on my blogger template:

There are a lot of tweakings to do but at least I have started the design and layout already. Hopefully at the end of the week I will be able to customize my blogger site.

The next task would be to study how the blogger template works.
