The New GMail Interface: Making My Life Easier
My E-mail’s inbox can be very overwhelming at times, especially when—whether I like it or not—I am subscribed to newsletters; updates from promos, blogs, and company notifications; updates and notifications from my social media accounts, bills and payments notifications and many more.

Coffee for a Cause
Water is one of man’s basic needs in order to survive; however, it is sad that not all in this world are fortunate enough to have access to free clean water, or worse, not even have access to clean water alone. People in Laos are few of those unfortunate ones. Gratefully, kind-hearted people are putting... Continue Reading →
The Thirteenth Doctor Formulation
It was established in The Deadly Assassin (1976) that a Time Lord can regenerate twelve times before permanently dying–a total of thirteen incarnations.

The Blurry Friendship Escalation
Ever since I could ever remember, I am not the kind of person who takes friendship for granted. I might be silent for some time, but that does not mean that I no longer care. Once I considered you my friend, you remain in the same status—well, unless you violate or one of my closest... Continue Reading →
A Writer’s Plea
As a writer, I know how hard it is to compose something noteworthy—be it fiction or nonfiction. You rack your brain, you pressure yourself, you eat your soul just come up with something that your readers will enjoy. However, it is sad that some netizens are simply contented with copying someone else’s creation, pasting them... Continue Reading →
