Holz (Daily Bread Author) says; Together we stand firm when life's headwinds gust our way together . Does this quote resonate well with you? We have witnessed nations like South Korea, Japan, Singapore, and Denmark were quite successful in their efforts to contain the global virus. When people from nations are united, they can achieve positive results despite life’s headwinds such as covid-19  that took the lives of people by the thousands daily.

Baguio City December 2014

When your body clock is used to a faster pace, boredom can strike you when the stay exceeds for one week in this city of pines .  Besides i need to clean up our flat from dust and get rid of  the common irritating Baguio mold smell due to flat left unused for months. There is an advantage living in a box (condo), not a thing missing, all things are intact. You can expect to see the flat the way you had left it. Its been almost a week since i arrived with Jimboh  and i should have another week in the city before i have to get back  to my Pasig flat to prepare my  journey to a continent that was my second home since 1997 to 2010 ( 13 years), Africa ! With all the traffic , large SUV 's , small roads and the lack of parking in the city, my feet deserves a vacation and rest. I have been dealing with Metro Manila traffic and when your using a manual transmission SUV ( which i prefer), foot pain is inevitable. I decided to walk from  our flat to town using the Leonard Wood r

I was driving at the usual evening hour along Ortigas heading home when i chanced upon a young man whose both legs are affected by polio and walks on the wet street using both arms, trying his best to survive the cold and wet weather and the cruel world where he is in. It was on a red light and this gave me enough time to observe him. Here i am sitting in the comfort of a vehicle and protected from the rain while i was watch him. It is a shame when we often complain about any inconvenience we encounter. I felt the Lord was talking to me, how lucky i am and how other people are suffering.

Container Houses

Years ago, i had planned to build a container house on a lot i purchased at Pines Ville  beside the Philippine Military Academy. I was discussing with a house planner on how to construct my container house. Though it never materialized, i ended up selling the lot. (",) Link: This Rusty Shipping Container Seems Abandoned.

Good Lesson

I learned a good lesson today. Ride the public transport instead of bringing your vehicle. The convenience of not having to commute cease to be. Paid or not paid parking is just a big head ache in this city. I wonder what the city government is doing to solve this problem. Or are they not doing anything at all?

The Adjunct Revolt: How Poor Professors Are Fighting Back - Elizabeth Segran - The Atlantic

Ever since i was involved with higher education, i realized how it feels to be on an "Adjunct Professor" status.Though i am one myself, i did not really mind as teaching remains to be a second passion at least for now. I can relate with some faculty members whom i have met that are young and on an adjunct status. Based on my observation a select few for personal reasons would prefer an adjunct status rather than being tenured with the university. However we still have the majority who are struggling to get tenured. The issue on student evaluation was also raised. The faculty whether being tenured or adjunct has the tendency to be over student friendly for fear of having poor student evaluation. I have noticed this too easily and coming from the corporate of 25 years,  i really never cared on how my own student evaluation comes out. My trademark according to a student of mine is being "professionally nice". I will not compromise quality education in exchange of be
