The Brouhaha of PH 2016 Elections

April 23, 2016 by Anna — 6 Comments

I used a dog as this post’s featured image on purpose because dogs always elicit a happy mood. You’re welcome.

What has become of social media nowadays?

Here’s mine: People putting someone who barely cares about them on a pedestal and at the same time, arguing and lambasting anyone who thinks differently and has a different opinion of their person on social media. Right from the moment you decide to stand by someone who doesn’t know you at all at a personal level, then it gets worse when you start cutting off people you have years worth of relationship with, just because you do not agree on this one thing?

Sigh, social media. I love and hate you at the same time. I thought you are suppose to connect people together? You’re only conveniently breaking us apart.

Art in the Park 2016

April 15, 2016 by Anna — 2 Comments
Filed Under: Events

When’s the last time you went to an art fair?

I think this would be my fifth time, if I’m not mistaken. I rarely go to art fairs here because they are far (like at the other side of the city?) and it’s such an inconvenience to commute all the way from here to there. If you’re also in the Philippines, you might understand where I am coming from when I say the inefficient public transportation here sucks. Most of the time I am discouraged from going out and far because of this. The other reason is because of my current condition I can’t commute to far places.

The same thing can be said when it comes to museums, too. I haven’t been to the infamous Pinto Art museum, if anyone asks.

On Millenials

April 11, 2016 by Anna — 6 Comments
Filed Under: Musings

Once upon a time, I used to wave the Millenial flag high and proud. I used the word loosely, thinking that it only means a word to describe myself who’s in her twenties. Basically, a one-word term to further shorten the term “twenty-something”. This word is so overused around the internet that it eventually began to annoy me. Over and over again. Every one is a millenial. Well okay it’s stupid to dwell on how redundant that is; we all age and step in to our twenties eventually, and leave eventually, too.

PS: This may not be a pretty post, or one you’ll agree with. 🙂

BPI ATM Cards’ New Look

April 8, 2016 by Anna — Leave a Comment
Filed Under: Event News and Announcements

I received this email advisory from BPI today, announcing that they changed the look of their ATM cards. I hope I got it correct that the-now ‘BPI Debit Card’ is the same ATM card they issue to all savings account holders of their bank? It seems that way!

Here’s the announcement letter sent to my email in its entirety:

Hmm, I don’t think I like how that EPS logo with red outline around it sticks like a sore thumb. It looks rather out of place hahaha. I think I prefer the one I already have, the one that says ‘BPI Express Teller’. Just my two cents. 🙂 On the other hand, what is that gold version of debit card and how can one sign up for that? Probably has requirement of a a huge sum of savings amount, no?

Oh, by the way, if you are looking into opening a BPI savings account, check out their Easy Saver savings account.

Prior to opening a BPI account a few years ago I was hesitant because from what I know they have a PHP 3,000.00 maintaining balance for their regular ATM/savings/non-checkbook type of account. Well, I simply can’t manage that. I tried with BPI Direct, and miserably failed trying to keep up with their P500 maintaining balance before.

Then I found out BPI has this Easy Saver type of account. It’s not that much advertised when you go to their bank, but I’ve seen the pamphlet laying around one time! I only heard and read about it online. So when I finally signed up and got my card, I was surprised to find that it works just like a regular savings account minus the maintaining balance requirement. The minor downside (for me) is that there are small fees whenever you need to withdraw and do OTC transactions with it. I think it’s P5.00 for every transaction, P10 for money withdrawals through ATM. Shouldn’t be a problem if you’re use is going to use it online most of the time though.

Disclosure: This is not a sponsored post and I was not paid to write about the topic. I just wanted to write about the announcement since it’s fairly new. All thoughts and opinions expressed are my own.
