it's a just a trick that East Asians are purely nerds. they're actually all cool and cute.
White people are attractive.
Brown people are strong and perfect people.
That's my opinion.
these are going to be quite surprising.
- dapat "bayan" ka na if you think of buying your first home. hindi ka dapat piggy bank budget anymore.
- kung araw-araw pa budget mo, di ka pa ready bumili ng bahay!
- savers are still in school!
- 10% saving, is, you still live with your parents. dapat maka-50% saving ka if you invest well in yourself.
- don't retire with excess body fat. retire being fit in your body.
- you save 10% of your income if you're already rich.
- save up for emergency fund? sabi ko, dapat may unlimited emergency funds ka. dapat you earn above your means.
- if you want money for coffee every morning, dapat you make -extra- money just for the coffee. artisan coffee kasi yon. otherwise, mag-coffee ka na lang sa bahay.
- "own car" is supposed to be a gift from your parents. otherwise, dapat kuntento ka na lang mag-commute.
- no one understands bills unless they're already rich.
- if you have bills, may extra income ka na.
- if you have a complete budget (housing, groceries, electrical bills, medical bills), you better be making extra income already. otherwise, you still live under your parents' roof.
My mind isn't very clear on this one memory that I call my "first memory"...It was my memory of my first word. I was just one year old and both my parents were pushing me in a pram around a corner, and a bird landed on my pram and I became very interested, announcing my first English word, "Bird!" My parents acted really proud.
I also have this one distant memory of my sister going to therapy classes (as she was having some speech delay) where I had to wait outside the school and wondered what in the world, was a huge inflatable swimming pool shaped like a dinosaur doing there. It was really strange, a great big teal dinosaur sitting there, standing as some sort of omen or sign I couldn't understand.
Hi! I'm Tammy, and I'm a Linguistics graduate-turned digital writer and graphic designer. When I was younger, I was known by friends and family to be really talkative - always saying how I thought and felt without holding back, just to get information from them. I liked verbalizing the things I learned about life, and telling just anyone who would listen.
Personally, I'm very interested in Japanese culture and language, especially fashion. Given the chance, I would save up and go to Japan someday to speak Japanese and eat the delicious food. I'm really into all the Asian cultures.
Hire me to write content for you and I will do my best to apply all I know into making great-sounding and interesting copy.

Tiny Buddha: How to Audit Your Life
As of now:
Finances - not doing so well.
Relationships
Health and Wellbeing - I need to exercise more.
Career and Business
Consider these questions:
Knowledge and Learning
Are you expanding? Are you learning new things and trying out new experiences?
- I think I'm always trying to learn and expand.
Travel and Adventures - Just can't afford it right now...
Home
Spirituality
Giving Back - Sorry, I don't have the funds to do that right now... :O
Overall, I'm in a period of renewing my life.
Sometimes people give some crucial life advice, that while they are correct, are phrased in some really demotivating language that you can't help but feel irritated at the shortness and vapidness at their response.
An example of my own life advice is this:
If anything else, find what truly matters in life.

Look at this.
So, I want to start a graphic design job. When I was a teenager, I literally found my calling in life by thinking of what I could do for the poorest of the poor: I thought, I wanted study and learn design so I could spread great design to the poorest people, so they can feel inspired and feel better psychologically. At my dream's highest point, I want the poor to be able to dream and feel like they can certainly achieve things in life, and make money. I wish to make a line for them to money and a good life.
So my job hunt will start with this question: Where can I get a job to serve the poor with great design?

I just have an idea where idle, penniless, but creative and ambitious boys and girls all get free education and certification online and just end up getting jobs rake in money for themselves and their families at the same time...
This is my idea: There will be a separate girls' and boys' curriculum consisting of free online stuff and they will finally get a job (also online), and finally, be rewarded with cash. I think my idea is brilliant.

Chinese Art Education in Marikina
Tamaryn T. Mina
Background on China
China is recognized as the most populous country in the world. Based on their national anthem, “March of the Volunteers”, their deepest desire is to raise themselves up from poverty and live the life of their dreams. China is a socialist republic, meaning that their ultimate goal is to live a good life based on the principles of volunteerism and public sharing.
Religion in China
China practices “freedom of religion” although the state espouses atheism. The classical religions and spiritual philosophies include Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism. Other religions include Christianity and native religions.
Chinese Arts
Classical Chinese culture had a strong emphasis on literary arts such as calligraphy, poetry and painting. They used to place emphasis on these above dancing and drama, as those were important components of the imperial exam.
Chinese Education System
It’s strange to note that the Wikipedia page on China didn’t mention the education sector but the researcher feels that their idea of education is that “education” is integrated with all fields and sectors of society.
China adopted socialist ideals for their problems of crop-sharing and communal sharing.
Marikina City
Marikina City is a 1st class city in the Philippines known for its shoe industry and quiet ambiance. Marikina houses a Chinese temple in Sto. Nino for the Chinese population and people who want to learn about Chinese culture.
Art education in Marikina comprises art workshops sponsored by the city and private artists like “MAARTSY” and other entities. It also includes English and Filipino classes in every school in the city, where students may write and use different performing arts and/or crafts. Lastly, the city is filled with monuments and simple, public paintings on walls.
The following is a list of “art spaces” and galleries in the city:
DITO: Bahay ng Sining
Joey Velasco Gallery
Magasining Visual Art Agency
Ritrato Arts and Crafts
Savvy Art Gallery
Sin Garage
ART AND GO
Dreams Needlearts & Crafts
The Spirit of Bethlehem
Art Smart Manila
The Opinionated Art Store
Art Nouveau 181
Artville Art Gallery
Oma Arts and Crafts
Museum of Miniatures
The HeART Creative Hub
Some art spaces offer simple art classes or painting sessions (such as DITO: Bahay ng Sining and ART AND GO).
It appears that Marikina offers many avenues for artists however it seems like the local art world depends on personal and family connections.
Marikina isn’t known for highly theorized arts except for art housed at DITO: Bahay ng Sining and religious art (Joey Velasco Gallery and The Spirit of Bethlehem).
Chinese art seems to get outsourced to other neighbouring cities like Pasig (which has the nearest Chinese school, Dee Hwa Liong Academy). It seems that Chinese artists can get their break through casual events such as painting sessions, as per “right now”.
Conclusion
It seems like Chinese art is stuck in a vicious cycle of “being an artist simply for the money”. Art, admittedly, is art itself. Art can be a skill. Art can be a concept. Art can be the self. However, the researcher defines art as a product, the work of one’s own hands. So China looks like it outsources its art to other countries because of a national problem involving the concept of “work”. Chinese art has great potential, in my opinion. However, the work of bringing Chinese art forward to the 21st century is just beginning.
