🔴WEBCAST: Which Do You Prefer Freelancing or Working Full-Time?

A full-time job is when a person is recruited by an organization and works a minimum number of hours per day as defined by their employer; in other words, it is the quintessential nine-to-five job. 

On the other hand, freelancing is when a person is self-employed and works for different companies on a per-job/task basis. 

Which do you prefer Freelancing or working Full-Time? In this Webcast Episode, we will talk about the advantages and disadvantages of working as a freelancer and a full-time employee. I hope you'll learn from this.

Streamlining My Micro Living Condo: Installing a Bladeless Fan, Sound Bar & Managing Cables!

Living in a micro condo means every inch of space counts! Recently, I took on a mini home-improvement project to optimize my small home office setup. First on the list was installing a bladeless electric fan on the wall. Not only does this free up floor space, but it also adds a sleek, modern touch to the room. This fan is ideal for small spaces since it delivers powerful airflow without taking up extra room. Next, I mounted a sound bar just above my TV, creating an immersive entertainment setup that’s perfect for movie nights or relaxing with music after a long day. The sound bar’s position also makes it easy to control remotely, which is an added bonus! 

 The most challenging (and rewarding) part was organizing all the cables! With multiple devices in such a small area, wire management was essential to keep things tidy and functional. I spent half the day hiding cables, securing them to the wall, and using clips to keep everything in place. While it was exhausting, the end result is a clutter-free space that feels more organized and comfortable. This mini project has made my micro-living condo feel even more functional and inviting. If you’re looking to make the most of a small space, I definitely recommend investing time in wire management and considering wall-mounted appliances to maximize your living area.

🔴LIVE: Talking About College Life and 10 Years Later with Bonjo.

Remember on my last blog post wherein I went to Maginhawa St. for food tripping with my college friends. Before we headed towards the street of Maginhawa to grab a bite; our main destination was the Philippine Children Medical Center for my friends’ COVID19 swab test. 

While waiting inside the car, Bonjo and I decided to go on Live via Youtube to share our discussion with my community – Tansyong Lovers. We talked about Adulting and what are the changes we actually noticed from the time we studied at the same University versus life after 10 years. It was truly nostalgic and fun.

Craving Lechong Manok & Nilagang Baka + My 2nd Dose of Anti-Rabies Vaccine!

Hey everyone, welcome back to my blog! 🌟 In today’s post, I’m sharing some of my recent life happenings—from satisfying my midnight cravings to getting my second dose of the anti-rabies vaccine. Life can be busy, but I always make time for a little indulgence, comfort food, and keeping up with my health. Let’s dive in!

Rotisserie Chicken aka Lechon Manok.

Midnight Cravings: Lechong Manok to the Rescue!

So, the other night, I woke up at midnight with an intense craving for Lechong Manok (rotisserie chicken). You know those moments when you can’t stop thinking about a certain food? That was me, so I decided to take action and make it happen!

I grabbed a whole chicken, marinated it with a mix of herbs, spices, and some Filipino flavors. Then, I used my trusty air fryer to cook the chicken to crispy perfection. For those who don’t know, rotisserie chicken is made by cooking the chicken using direct heat, often from electric or gas-powered heating elements. The result? A super juicy, tender chicken with crispy skin—just the way I like it! 🍗

The best part? I didn’t have to go out to get it. I could prepare this delicious dish from the comfort of my condo. Honestly, having an air fryer has made cooking so much easier, especially for dishes like Lechong Manok, which I can now make at any time. It’s a total game-changer for me!

Beef Soup aka Nilagang Baka.

Comfort Food to the Rescue: Nilagang Baka

While I was cooking my Lechong Manok, I also had to take care of some health matters. I recently got a little scratch from a street cat (I know, not the best situation 😅), so I had to go get my second dose of the anti-rabies vaccine.

I’ve had this vaccine before, and every time I get a dose, I feel a bit feverish. So, to treat myself, I decided to cook a hearty pot of Nilagang Baka. For those who are not familiar, Nilagang Baka is a Filipino beef soup made with tender beef shank and a variety of vegetables like potatoes, beans, and cabbage. It’s a warm, flavorful dish that feels like a hug in a bowl.

Nilagang Baka is one of my absolute favorite Filipino comfort foods. The tender beef combined with the veggies makes it both delicious and healthy. Plus, it's the perfect food when you're not feeling 100%, which made it the ideal choice since I was dealing with the side effects of the vaccine.

The Perfect Combo: Health, Comfort, and Cravings

It’s amazing how food can bring so much comfort and joy, especially when you’re dealing with health matters like vaccinations. Cooking these dishes not only satisfied my cravings but also made me feel better physically and emotionally.

I truly believe that food is such a big part of my life—it’s a way to treat myself, stay connected to my culture, and find comfort during challenging times. The combination of Lechong Manok and Nilagang Baka made my day, and I couldn’t have asked for better comfort food to enjoy during my recovery.

Takeaway

Life isn’t always about being busy or perfect. Sometimes, it's about taking a step back, cooking something you love, and focusing on your health. Whether it’s satisfying a midnight craving or making your favorite comfort food, remember to enjoy the simple pleasures in life. And of course, don’t forget to take care of yourself (even if it means getting your anti-rabies vaccine, haha)!

Elevate Your Kitchen with This Adhesive Spice Rack!

If you’ve been searching for a practical and stylish way to organize your spices, look no further! I recently added this adhesive spice rack to my kitchen wall, and it’s a total game-changer. Not only does it save counter space, but it also keeps my spices within arm’s reach while adding a sleek and modern look to my small kitchen.

The rack is super easy to install—no drilling required! With its adhesive back, it firmly sticks to the wall, making it perfect for renters or anyone who wants to avoid damaging their kitchen walls. It holds a variety of spice bottles securely, from garlic powder to curry powder, basil leaves, and even pepper grinders.

This spice rack isn’t just about function—it’s also about aesthetics. Displaying your favorite spices neatly can inspire creativity in your cooking and give your kitchen a more polished look. Whether you're a seasoned chef or just starting your cooking journey, this simple addition is a must-have for any micro-living setup.

Buying Expensive Coffee Presser Out of Impulse.

My plastic pitcher broke and I have nothing to use for cold drinking water that fits on my refrigerator’s compartment. I was reluctant to go outside during mall hours to buy one because I am trying to avoid the crowded areas as there is a surge of Omicron variant – COVID19. Hence, it is essential for me, at least to have a cold water supply and I decided to quickly go to the nearest Home and Kitchen supply store situated in Pavilion, Greenfield District. To my surprise, the security guard told me that the said store where I frequently bought plastic products is already closed for more than one year. I am a patron f such store – Japan Home, as it is affordable. That’s when I realized that it’s been one year that I haven’t visited the said establishment and sadly numerous stores are closed due to pandemics. The place is silent and dark inside so I decided not to head inside anymore.

While I was walking back to my condo unit, I thought of heading to SM Megamall since I am already outside and I have no plan of going outside again unless it is important, then I decided to just go to SM Megamall which is only a 5-minute walk from Pavilion. I’ll check if there is an available pitcher similar to what I had. I went to the department store and found a glass version for the amount of PHP500. 

While sauntering in the department store, I saw a coffee presser and I remembered that my coffee-maker is no longer working. Coffee is my life as someone who worked at night. I decided to buy one; it was amounting to PHP3, 000. Yes, it was expensive and I grabbed it due to impulse, only I realized after that, I haven’t checked the pricing of coffee presser online via Shopee or Lazada for comparison. 

It was funny because I kept reminding myself as part of denial that maybe it is expensive in line with its durability. But honestly, I must admit that I had a little bit of remorse haha. It was not practical because I can already buy 2 coffee makers on the said amount. I admit I failed on that part.

Watch this short video, preparing an iced coffee. 

Despite of somewhat, I called –“little remorse” when it comes to functionality, it did really work. It is just that, every time I am using my newly-purchased coffee presser, I always make sure to handle it with extra care, not to fall on the floor or any reason to get it broken. “Ang Mahal Kaya”, but I really love using it.

TIP: Use Rack To Arrange Indoor Plants Inside A Small Apartment Unit.

Plant racks are great furniture pieces that will help you organize your space. Instead of leaving pots on the floor, you can use tiered racks to elevate your plants and free up some floor space. If you love plants, you'll love the freedom plant stands give you to enjoy your plants anywhere at home. You may also consider a Plant Stand- it can help plants grow even more by maximizing growing space, too. If you have larger plant pots, Plant Movers is an option - it can help make it easier to push plants to a new place and clean around them.

Since I am living in a tiny studio-type condo unit that measures 13.5 sqm. So, I have no luxury of moving my plants to different places. In addition, I have so many plants - so Plant Rack is the best option and not Plant stand. 

Plants Racks elevate the pots from the floor which makes it easier to remove the dirt and dust below. The free space below can also be used as storage. I decided to purchase one for my table, one for the floor, and one that fits above the refrigerator.  In fact, there are many reasons why you might benefit from a plant rack, and for me - simply, space-saving and aesthetic.

REVIEW: Overnight Stay At Royal Palm Residences, Taguig City.

The green ground and landscaped gardens of Royal Palm Residences, Taguig City.

 

We have decided to discreetly book an apartment unit at Royal Palm Residences in Taguig City to celebrate my friend's birthday - William Pombo. That was exciting because that said plan for a surprise party was agreed upon by the majority - there are Britney Spears's Fans who became my circle of friends.   

 

We opted for the said Condominium Establishment because it has a swimming pool and is accessible within Metro Manila; no need to drive away from the city just to experience a staycation and celebration at the same time. It is also nearby Maple Place, Rosewood Pointe, and Mulberry Place, maybe that is one of the reasons why short-term rental is affordable because it is surrounded by nearby condo establishments that offer with same services.

The relaxing view of the sunset from the balcony of the said unit is located at one of the high-rise buildings named Kamala.

WATCH THE VLOG:

 

This 4.12-hectare Thai tropical-inspired residential community, composed of eight mid-rise and two-high rise buildings, blends old-world charm with modern conveniences. Find your home in Taguig city, close to Bonifacio Global City and the Makati CBD in a studio, two- or three-bedroom, or tandem unit, with prices that range from P2.7M to 6.39M. Luxuriate in amenities that include gardens, courts, pools, and various other facilities for your pleasure and entertainment.

Eight mid-rise buildings are named Karon, Kata, Railay, Yanao, Phuket, Nui, Pansea, and Samui. These buildings have 5 levels of residential floors and only 1 level of basement parking.

While the two-high rise buildings are named Kamala and Rawai. Those two buildings have has 

14 Levels Residential Floors, 3 Level Podium Parking, 1 Level Basement Parking. We stayed in Kamala Building so the sunset can be seen in front of the balcony.

FEEDBACK:

I love the place. Especially, if you have your own unit, I assumed that you'll get relaxed during weekends from your tiring work because the place is not crowded unlike with Azure Urban Resort and Residences. This establishment is a residential place but became open to the public for short-term leases like a weekend staycation; during the boom of Airbnb, among others.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Unit that we booked, I love it. It has plenty of rooms and bathrooms. It has a maid room and master bedroom. It has complete kitchen utensils and cooking equipment so we're able to cook our food for the party. A ref that we put the birthday cake and drinks. It has also a wifi connection and cable for television. When it comes to cleanliness, I didn't see any cockroaches and insects, nor foul smell.

I only noticed the discoloration on the common bathtub and some molds on the gutter. But on the master's bedroom-owned washroom, it was extremely elegant and pristine.

General Facilities in this establishment are complete. So, if I live here, I maybe not go out unless buying grocery supplies. 

Amenities:

• 24-hour Security
• Arrival Court
• Multi-Purpose Court
• Children's Playground
• Children's Recreation Space / Daycare
• Clubhouse
• Convenience Store
• Entertainment Room
• Fitness Gym
• Function Hall
• Game Room
• Gazebo/ Cabana
• Grill Pits
• Jogging/ Biking Path
• Kiddie Pool
• Landscaped Gardens
• Lap Pool
• Laundry Station
• Lounge Area
• Main Entrance Gate
• Open Lawn/Picnic Grove
• Perimeter Fence
• Pool Deck
• Pool Shower Area
• Pool Water Slides

The developer is DMCI Homes, so no questions when it comes to aesthetics. But the solemnity of the place is what I loved. You knew the fact that you can go to any amenities without going to a long queue. And above all, you can set down in one of the gazebos and not worrying your belongings might get stolen due to overcrowding.

TIPS:

1. When looking for a staycation. Make sure to ask the owner - what day the swimming pool is not open to the public. There are days that swimming pools are only exclusive for the unit owners and not to guests. There are also days that amenities are close to both unit owners and guests due to weekly maintenance.
2. If you don't own a car, and you've booked for a staycation; much better if you buy all your food and groceries before heading to the establishment because you have to walk for a few minutes just to get out of the area and reach the public vehicle terminal. Indeed, if you have heavy baggage from shopping, tricycles are not allowed inside.

🔴 Live Webcast Will Be Streaming Soon at I Love Tansyong TV.

Podcasts nowadays became popular as content on various audio streaming platforms. A Podcast is a digital audio file made available on the internet for downloading to a computer or mobile device, typically available as a series, new installments of which can be received by subscribers automatically. It is a multi-media digital file distributed over the Internet to be watched and listened to on a computer, iPod, or another device. A radio program distributed exclusively over the Internet and listened to on people's iPods is an example of a podcast.

Meanwhile, due to the popularity of youtube, podcasters uploaded the episodes on the said video streaming site but this time around, podcasters can now be seen in a video format. And, that's when webcast was born. The webcast is a video broadcast of an event transmitted over the internet.
