budgetgeek LeBron James and Kevin Durant are two different types of players. 'Bron is flash with substance while KD is pure substance. These are two different approaches that are winning games for their respective teams. Durant has a smoother flow of play, kind of like a...

So K-12 is pushing through!

EdnaReyes @EdnaReyes (2622) • Philippines 18 Jan 11

With the announcement of early registrtation for public school opening for Kindergarden, it seems that the K-12 plan which gives additional year for public school students is pushing through. What's in your mind regarding this...

budgetgeek Quite frankly, this proposition will be a huge failure especially given the economic hardships of most Filipinos. Adding a year will not solve the problem. Respecting teachers and increasing their salaries will be a better option.

So I just heard about Luuux for the first time today. Apparently, it is a site where you post articles and stuff (most members are women) and you get luxury products in return. The idea is quite nice, but does anyone know if the...

budgetgeek I'm a member of LUUUX as well, though I'm not sure if they ship to my location. It'll be cool to land a few Apple stuff from that site, but I'd rather spend my time making dimes that I know will accumulate and I can cash it out in the near future. :)

budgetgeek We have a dog named Diego. He's of the Shih Tzu breed. He's small and adorable, also a very smart pooch. He will jump and go around me whenever I arrive from work. He also knows some simple addition like 1+1 = 2 (of course, in bark mode :) )

budgetgeek People should see the computer merely as a tool and not the "end-all-be-all" type of thing. Saying that people is already "worshipping" the computer is like people should have "worshipped" the wheel eons ago. Each is revolutionary in its own right, but still...

budgetgeek I love Michael Jordan, but as to who's "the greatest question" I think we would have to examine the different circumstances surrounding greatness. In terms of points and media impact, it might as well be Michael Jordan. Our generation owes a lot to MJ. I...
