manubla I can relate to your friend. Lately, the people I work with are having the time of their lives stressing me out. It's not something ordinary because I think about it even when I get home (I have this rule that the moment I get out...

manubla @doggydimon-sounds like it's similar to KFC's Chicken Ala King which was only made available a year or 2 ago (not sure though). That's my second favorite, next to chicken!

manubla I have tried KFC chicken and mashed potato in Singapore and Malaysia but I still like what we have here in the Philippines. It's tastier in my humbler opinion.

manubla Happy new year! Fortunately for me, it wasn't drained that much. The very thing that stresses me out during the holidays is preparing for several Christmas parties, especially those with themes. There are a lot of people everywhere. It's hard to move, it...

manubla Since it's a gift for your sister, it's basically hers so it's her decision on what to do with it. Perhaps your mother should have asked permission from your sister before giving it away to another. Even though your mom can replace it, sometimes nothing beats...

manubla For 2012, I have 3 travels lined up, 1 overseas and 2 domestic. All do not fall during the summer. And until now, I still don't have plans for it as well. It all depends on the budget. It's quite a constraint right now because I want to continue another...

manubla I was also offered several times by my credit card company of cash loan but I declined all their offers. I didn't need it and I did not want to pay for the interest. Do check though. The .99% is monthly so that's around 11.88% in a year so if you plan to...
