An Open ME…

I am 32 years old and currently working and residing in Italy with my wife and a 7 year-old son.

I decided to leave Philippines as young as 19 years old. I was on my 3rd year college then taking Bachelor of Science in Travel Management at Holy Angel University in Angeles City. Poverty pushed me to interrupt my studies and found job to sustain myself and my family. Fortunately, I was hired as a receptionist after 2 years of working as a domestic helper here in Italy and I am continuing doing the same job now. I am not enrolled at the University of the Philippines Open University if not for the advice I got from some resource persons of a certificate course program named Leadership and Social Entrepreneurship. I joined  the program when I was the incumbent president of our cultural association here in the year 2010.

Looking forward for reaching my goals when I was a child, those are aiming a bachelor’s degree and being financially stable as these are the main reasons of leaving the Philippines at the back of my shoulder. Sometimes I say to myself, now I know why God did not let me finish my studies before, aside from wanting me to accomplish a mission for my family prior to my studies, he wanted me to pursue my studies at the UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES!

My Top 10 Apps.

This application is more than user friendly because it reads almost all types of video/audio files.

 This application is easy to use and gives you good screen shots and video recording results.

 SAFARI is very fast and convenient to use, what I like the most is that when you download music it automatically saves in iTunes.

 GOOGLE EARTH is accurate and detailed information on your geographical search.

 HANDBREAK gives a good quality of video conversions for mac users.

 I normally use PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 9 for photo editing for its features such as clean interface.

 I like FIREFOX because of its convenience in downloading videos and mp3′s and it has lots of plug-ins.

 ROXIO TOAST II gives a satisfying burn results and it has extra features like CD cover maker.

App. In Other Words!

At first, I was confused on what would be the simple and easiest way to define an Application or App, but going through all the sources I found and refreshing all the lessons took this past two months I could simply say that App is:

A program or software on our computers and mobile devices which allows us to perform lots of stuff depending specifically on what would be our field of interest like: games, word processing, presentations, audio, video, computing, browsing, editing and the like. They can be pre-installed and some are found on the web but they can be manually installed too.
