Just like the previous years that passed, my year 2013 has been full of ups and downs, goods and bads; and success and failures. Though it has not been that perfect to me, my family, my studies, and my work, my year still generally becomes fair and the burning hope in me still continues to ignite as I look forward to a better year to come.

People couldn't keep partying here and there before and during the celebration. Students, employees, or even members of organizations spent a day or a night enjoying with their colleagues, before the challenging year ends.

As we know, Christmas is a season of giving and loving. Do we suppose that these acts must only be manifested in 100 days? Think again. We must not be blinded from the fact ...

Not born with a silver spoon in their mouth, these successful individuals started setting up a small business with a big heart and humble attitude. Because of their persistent hard-work, their mini-investments had great returns, proving a real rags-to-richest story of life. Just like them, I also had dreamed of becoming a rich person someday; until I realized the blood and sweat it would require to achieve such goal. Despite this, I still persuaded and grabbed every single opportunity that might help more than my family's basic needs. For instance, after finishing high school, I worked as a sim card peddler, as a 'carinderia' helper, fashion shop assistant and a student assistant in a private school. I spent most of my teenage life working here and there but nothing had changed. M...
