Intellectual Property: Why we should care.

I remember explaining to a very confused classmate that piracy was bad and it was stealing. I remember getting very frustrated because he could not seem to grasp what I was saying, It seemed odd to me that he had no idea that he was stealing intellectual property. “How could he have not known?”, I was asking myself the whole time.

Turns out, most everyone in this country either do not know, do not care, or do not bother to think about it. Having a parent whose work dabbled in IP, I was not part of that majority. Having lived with random lectures on the topic and a strict no pirated rule in our house, I grew to understand and care about this issue.

Why does it matter?

Guess who's back!

 ..and with so much time in her hands for the next few weeks!

It's been forever since my last post and so much has happened since then. I never really understood how people could be too busy to tell their stories up until the last few months.

A few weeks back I received I package I was particularly excited to get. 

Monkey Tantrums

Today on Rappler's #TalkThursday episode, Jose Ramon Albert, Secretary General of the National Statistical Coordination Board spoke on poverty and statistics in the country. He mentioned that income inequality exists in the Philippines, that there's a divide between the rich and the poor.

THIS VIDEO explains that thought perfectly.

And we wonder why things are this crazy.

A few weeks ago, we found ourselves parked at Choi Palace, Eastwood for a quick dimsum dinner.

Peplums, Bows, and Aztec Prints

I know I've said it at least once here on the blog that I wouldn't be caught in peplum but I just couldn't resist this pretty bow.
