Trip to Calereuga

I love Caleruega. For me, it is one of the most tranquil and peaceful place I've ever been. You'll have enough space and time to be with your inner self and to reflect on things that came your way.

Every time we go to Tagaytay, we always place in our itinerary a visit to Caleruega... So are you familiar with Caleruega?

If you're thinking that it is a small town in Castile-Leon Spain, you might be right... but here in the Philippines, it is the Domican run Retreat place in the heart of Batulao Batangas. It is less than an hour drive from Tagaytay through Nasugbu and going to Batulao.

How You Can Confidently Make a Career Shift: 10 questions to ask yourself before making a change

So, you’ve been thinking about changing your line of work?

Don’t worry; you’re not alone. In fact, more and more people are following this previously unpopular career path. In fact, it’s becoming much more common for men and women, especially those in their 30s and 40s to do just that.

Tragic world events have also contributed to this new phenomenon—people are reconsidering work/life balance issues, their legacy, and how they want to be contributing to this world in the here and now. Doctors, interested in work/life balance and greater safety, are nurturing their artistic interests. Corporate employees, desiring greater independence, are swapping suits for bathrobes and starting up home-based businesses.

Greener Pastures: Is it really for the best? or for your Headaches?

When we talk about careers, we are talking about our future and on how we will sustain life as it is. I find it somehow absurd, if one resigns in his work then his employers or boss becomes bitter and tries to give you one heck of pain. I think it is a personal choice of the person to say quits or not…. Bitterness is not an acceptable response.

I’m writing this because right now I’m in that situation. I find it very hard to leave my company and I don’t know why I’m having all this headaches… So let me slice the story a little bit.

I owe a lot of debt and gratitude to the company because they allowed me to have a Master’s degree for free literally. They financed my Masters education BUT tied me to work for them for 2 years after my graduation. So it’s been 10 months already after my graduation, and I realized that I do not completely owe them. I worked and studied hard for that degree, and I think all the work should be credited on my name because it’s not them who answered the entire test, worked 24 hours just to pass a project, and scuffled till death just to finish my Thesis. I believe I really worked hard for it.

Then recently, a received a job offer from another company. They called me if I’m interested to be interviewed and I said yes. Why not? It’s an opportunity that you shouldn’t miss. I went there and fortunately after series of interviews and tests, I got the job.

They are offering a better compensation package that’s way above what I’m earning in my company…. So what do you think is the best thing to do? Of course, I accepted the offer and filed my resignation in my company… That’s when all the trouble began…..

Headaches..... stress..... problems.... etc... what @ #$%&!!!!!


I really have to find a way to pay my "Education Bond"....

besides the usual shouting, sour-graping, black-mailing, etc from your superiors.... hahahahahahah

You're There, I'm Here....
