A Better Way?

Lately I've been wondering if there's a better way on how to earn money. Yes, my current job pays me well, but spending 10 hours a day reporting for work has made me impatient for money to arrive. There are bills and loans to pay, and there's so many places out there that me and my family can travel to for a vacation.

Bill Gates. Mark Zuckerberg. Dorsey and Stone. They all got it made. All they did was just to come up with this very unique and sellable idea, and the money just comes in.

There has to be better way, don't you think?

Lenten Sacrifice 2011

Once again, it's Lent. It's time for sacrifice, alms-giving, and abstaining. I'm trying to refrain from FB, Twitter (yup that's why I'm unusually quiet on the social network scene), and softdrinks, same as last year although I've been struggling with Coke these past few days.

I hope to do better before Easter Sunday.

And Then There Was Music...

After years of sitting idly in my parents' house, my acoustic guitar is back in my arms. Blame it on @GTWMpodcast sensation @johnoydanao and his superb guitar-playing that made me want to resurrect my musical career(?).

Well, after getting 4 songs from the internet (tabs and chords), I was able to strum tonight after the kids went off to bed. I was only able to do 3 out of 4 since Honestly (Acoustic version) by Harem Scarem is a killer piece. I hope to complete that song in the days to come.

The ones I believe I nailed were Collide (Howie Day), Crash Into Me (Dave Matthews Band), and Northern Sky (Nick Drake).

Whew! I guess it's like riding a bicycle again. Still, I feel a bit rusty. Maybe in time I'll get the hang of it again.
