Authorization letters and documents.

Hello readers, 

This is not a guide in making an authorization letter. I can make another post for you, but basically, this post gives you the best advice from someone whose life had been too focused in government paper works. 

This also works for students with English major courses wanting to know the basics and real-life qualifications of authorization letters. 

What does a valid ID indicate? 

  • a clear face picture
  • the person's clear First Name, Middle Initial and Last Name
  • Agency (whether SSS, PAGIBIG or PHILHEALTH) 
  • Clear signature
Here's a sample Valid ID (Which is no longer valid now since I have already graduated)

Front & Back




Why need an authorization? 


  • When the original person is not geographically available
  • When the person is busy, while you are free (make sure you are at least 18 years old).
This screenshot below is an authorization letter for my mother's Globe Bill. 
What things should you bring when you are authorized to do government transactions? Here's a checklist. 
  • Photocopy of the person's Valid ID with three replicate signatures of the owner. You can read my previous post about PHILHEALTH and claiming your MDR right here. Getting MDRs for patients had been a walk in the park as long as you have the right documents. 
  • Your own Valid ID (see earlier photo) and make sure your name is correctly spelled as most government IDs are prone to typographical errors.
  • Authorization letter stating the purpose of the authorization, the name of the authorizing person and the authorized (who happens to be you). 
  • Cedula (this is only needed when claiming for someone else's last pay check) 
  • Affidavit duly authorizing you (this is again for claiming anything monetary by nature) and this should be duly notarized
These are all the things that are common for any authorization request involving you as the legal representative of somebody. 

Points to note: 
  • This blog post doesn't cover major legal cases where affidavits duly notarized are involved. 
  • This post focuses on major authorization for government papers such as PAGIBIG, SSS, PHILHEALTH and any other protocol requiring the presence of the involved person. 
  • This is a general approach and is based on major government protocols that I was the authorized person or representative. 
Should you have major concerns, please write down your comments and questions. 

Feel free to share this post to a friend.

Thank you for the broken heart.


Hi there friends. 

I am now writing another crazy post about those lovely things I've learned in love. Yes. Those before and after a jigsaw relationship (it all hurts just the same). I ain't no stranger to that tingling sensation and I would want to let everybody know how thankful I am being way stronger than how I was before. 

Hence, thank you for breaking my heart and letting me realize how powerful I was to stand back on my knees. 

1. Don't expect too much. Live in the moment and let tomorrow handle its own worries. So much for worrying yourself to death, whatever is fated (or destined) will always find its way back to you. Enjoy every single second where God only knows how long he or she will be there to teach you a lesson



2. Be the right person for him or her and please stop finding the right person when you can't even be the right person. Sounds fair, right? 

If all you think about is yourself, to be happy and to smile all the time, then you are a certified selfish person. You are and you will be not until the time you hit your head at a boulder. That hard to make you realize that love is not all about self-gratification (try masturbating instead) but rather making your partner happy and contented with you. 

When you finally got that light bulb moment that LOVE IS PATIENT, then wait for the right person to come. Wait for the right moment to be fully mature of what you want. You can't forever run in circles, right? 

3. Trust that person. Never make yourself a cry-baby at the last page of your so-called relationship book. Trust him or her with all your heart; the same level of trust you give to our father in heaven. Trust and have faith. 

If you want to avoid a lifetime of regret, then trust this person. 

4. Spend the right time for yourself and for the other people in your life. Do not throw that energy ball of time for that person. He or she is only a parcel of your life. We may want to be as cheesy as we ought to be, but please. be realistic. I've learned this the hard way. Never, ever lose your bestfriends and so as your precious time with your family. 

That weird transition from one relationship to another, our crying pillows are our friends and perhaps even our dearest brother or sister. There's more to life than love and hence, don't make this your post-doctorate degree

5. Never tie a knot around his or her neck. The chicken with that awesome tight rope around his or her neck will easily fall prey to other predators. 

Be possessive at an installment basis. 

6. Support his or her hobbies. Whether it be witchcraft, or walking the dogs to the park or twerking, please. Isolation will make him or her alienated to his or her own world. You'll be the new ecosystem with a new equilibrium which will take another looooong time.
Respect the things he want. If he jogs, then let him be. If he reads a book or drinks a gallon of milk, then throw out all your love and support. 

7. Learn to walk away, sometimes. You deserve somebody better and brighter. I meant this big time and it won't hurt to know if this person is indeed WILLING TO FIGHT FOR YOU in the end. Willing to give up his pair of slippers to walk a mile chasing after you. 

Life is too short. Spend it with the right fit. 

8. Be healthy and live healthy. Okay, I get it. I get it. you are now entirely happy now that you've settled down. But fat is always fat. If you want to add more years to your self-esteem, then do some sit-ups or jog yourself to take the toxins away. 

9. Never cheat on him or her. If you plan out to go on a long long number of years with this person, then right from the start, let the ball roll at the right direction. 

If you love this person, then you are expected to be serious. :)

10. Actions speak louder than words. Don't be martyr and believe everything he says. use your head also but DO NOT OVERTHINK. 

Connecting the dots may had been that childhood hobby but right now, please connect the right dots and not the wrong circumstances which may lead to an overwhelming revolution. 

11. Do not overthink. Nobody is exempted in this post. Please stop overthinking and your neurons will have an early death. I've tried and tested this and it only brings forth unwanted imaginations and unnecessary connecting the dots. 

12. Mothers still know thy best. Our mothers have lived more years than us. They have a more naturalistic instinct when it comes to this gut feeling

My mom already warned me ahead of time. But as young as I was and as rushing I wanted to be, I went for the catch and it was a trap.

This is really true. Most of the time, our mothers feel an impending danger that our young hearts are too in-love to sense. (Love is blind)

13. Never ever put breaking up as an option. Don't tell me that you signed up for a contract just to terminate that contract EASILY? Don't be stupid. Fight for for him (or her). 

14. Never EVER account this and that. What do I mean by this? Well, money becomes an issue. The things that we did to him (or her) become an issue. I've done this a million times and I ended up saying more than I've planned. You will hurt that person, right? 

And this is now a word war. Unless you are both by profession accountants. 

15. Texting others while having a lovely dinner. Courtesy please. 

16. Love yourself. 

Thanks for reading. :) 




A guide for your post office items

Hi, if you've read my previous posting about getting a court clearance, then this post should be handy, too. 

Here's a checklist for you; if you ordered items through these online shops: 

  1. Aliexpress.com
  2. Amazon.com (in most cases, its vendors don't ship to the Philippines and you'll need another third party shipper)
  3. Ebay.com
  4. And other international shops. 
I am writing this just in case you feel your items are lost in space or if you get pieces of notification papers from PHILPOST. 



Note: If you ordered items through Lazada, ZALORA and other local shops, you'll have these delivered right to you. 

1. Go to the POST OFFICE if you get a paper from the PHILPOST. 

The lightweight items go directly to your address. 
ExperienceMy mom ordered a waterproof bluetooth speaker manufactured in Sweden and it arrived earlier than the promised 60 days delivery period. We got a notification paper but no mention of what items are to be claimed. 




2. Go to the PHILPOST location and bring with you Valid IDs and the piece of paper. 
Check this google map for more information. I will be making another blog post about the authorization documents needed, just in case.


This photo below shows the far-end view of the PHILPOST office near the Malacañang of the south (near the famous SRP). More or less, this office is boxed out in the Plaza Independencia (kamo nay bahala label on this dating spot). 

PS: Thank you google for another innovation for everybody. 





This photo below with some guidelines and flowcharts to guide everybody.














3. Go the far-end counter to line up. Make sure you already have a photocopy of your valid IDs at this phase.
Note: the in-charge will ask you to photocopy your ID so be a boy or girl scout. I have a photocopy below FYI. 
4. If it's your turn now, give the letter plus your photocopy of valid ID. You will be asked to write down your name in a series of logbooks and sheets of paper. 
Reminder: You will only photocopy ONCE regardless of the number of items to claim. Patience is a virtue and wait while the guy searches for the parcels. 
5. Pay the needed fees .
Duties: Php 112.00 ($2.50, £1.54)
Postal Stamp Fee: Php 56.00 ($1.24, £0.77)
Total fees: Php 168.00 ($3.73, £2.31) per item(depending on the weight of each item)
After paying these, you get these papers below. 


This is a simple guide to claiming your items. Feel free to share this post to people and don't forget to comment.

Relationship goals

I am writing this great list of goals that every other couple should reconsider.
Take care of dogs
1. Locate the karaoke spot in each town. By this would mean being crazily singing our hearts out and crying out those pressures and stressors. Singing is the best way to make us feel alive. I don't have 'that' kind of voice, but singing is one mutual hobby that me and my partner have in common. Monotony should already be in the background right at this time (whether you be at the first month or the fifteenth year!)
2. Take care of a Chow Chow and Siberian Husky. Believe it or not, one good gauge to know if the person you're marrying (ahem) is already mature is to have these selfish pets rampaging in your living room! You'll know the adverse effects whether you can live with him or not in your wildest dreams! 
3. Watch a John Mayer concert in the Philippines--TOGETHER. Why John Mayer? I also do not know. Please don't ask again. Thanks. 
4. Try a cliff dive jump shot. This is worth a shot and any trick with a jump will be worth that hashtag #relationshipgoals and no longer the #squadgoals. 
5. Have #couplefies in all the 44 municipalities of Cebu. And we mean this. Wherever you are, try taking good couple photos at all the places you've been to and make a good mosaic out of it. A good anniversary gift. lol
6. Create a simple youtube video saying "I love you and I need you". This is too cheesy but who says being cheesy is an exemption and an alibi? Now do it. I haven't done this honestly. 
7. Merge up a good business venture. Do this please if you think this person is already an inseparable part of you. If not yet, then think again and you'll be donating money to the drain. Perfect. 
8. Wear a couple shirt in a wonderful Valentine's evening. This would make both of you a laughing stock but, who cares anyway? There's now two of you in the world. 
9. Try that weird love padlock ritual in Korea. If this does not work, try cutting it with a saw just in case of emergency. Hello Stranger (a thai film) inspired me, actually. 
10.Climb one of the highest mountains and I am thinking of Mt. Fuji. At the top of it, you can propose. Lels. 
That's all for now. I will add more to this should I see more crazy tricks to either upload to your instagram accounts or spice up your pre-nuptial video. 
Thanks for reading. 

How can I sleep well? (here are some TIPS)


Getting that good night sleep is  a must. 

Our bodies require resting, obviously. Getting a dose of relaxants and anti-stressful activities might be what our bodies need for now. Recuperation Everybody needs a good dose of relaxants enough to calm your nerves and recuperate your body to the optimum level. 

I have tried a lot of ways, of course. Here are just a few things I do before I sleep. 

Hope this helps.


1. A glass of milk has the perfect glucose nutrients enough for your body to reach its glucose limit. But not too much please and you need to avoid large calorie-foods which may get in the way of your so-called goodnight rest.

When I say glucose limit, our body has this certain meter (case to case basis) which is also related to our calorie limit. The more we eat bread, pizza and other foods rich in glucose, you surely will feel asleep. This goes with a piggy feeling of sleeping right after eating a lot. 

2. Listening to 70s, 80s and 90s music playlist. You can also hit on the play button for Bosa Nova music and I can assure you that there is no more need for you to go out for a beach bumming weekend. (try also Norah Jones' Don't Know Why)

Need I say more? The slow beat of the music makes your heart beat less than plain house music that puts you on your thinking caps. The regulated rate of your heart makes you feel calm and eventually push your eyelids to a definite close. Let's call it a day. 

(I surely will write a good playlist soon on this site. )

3. Try Stargazing. That's if there are stars. Otherwise, check youtube.
   
4. Yoga and more planking routines. Make yourself tired but not too tired to make yourself hungry and grab another slice of bread. You need to at least sweat those unnecessary molecules OFF YOUR BODY. 

5. Soak myself for an hour of online gaming (Dragon Nest). Some might not feel the power to sleep right after but this works for me perfectly. An hour should be enough and that would get me to dreamland after making my eyes pretty tired.

6. Read influential books. Want an awesome reference? Read the bible. 

7. I pray.

Five of the weirdest dreams I've ever had

Everybody dreams. We dream of the best things in life and most of these start running when we are all asleep. 

The dream world can be labeled as a dreary zone. A grey area of electric impulses. An embodiment of our subconscious and our unconscious zones. 

Who can ever tell? At this blog post of mine, this would be a truthful reflection of some of the weirdest dreams by which have lingered until now. 

1. I dreamed of being a spirit. 

I cannot remember on how I died. That didn't come handy. What I've seen was my spirit was wandering tirelessly from one area to another. When I had this dream, I was still in college. It was awfully painful seeing my spirit floating and trying to find some decent talk. 

Everybody was too deaf. Nobody heard my voice. Nobody felt my boiling resentment and disappointment. I was too surprised that I died at that instant. 

Thoughts of my allowance came into existence. Honestly, I did think of my allowances and university tests. It was a hard trajectory that at the end of it, all I can ever display my emotions was my mother. 

I asked for her advice. I sought for it. I held her hand and asked her that I need her help. 

What my mom gave was this simple answer: "You had your chance when you were living. Now, there is nothing that I can do to save you".

A decade for sure had passed away. Now that I think of this and I've also shared this to people around me, I am pretty sure how we can still change the way things are running now. 

At that moment, it was a transition that made me realize that ONLY JESUS CAN SAVE YOU. 

My mom wasn't able to. For sure, your mothers won't be able to do so, too. 

It was a scary dream. A nightmare. I cried when I woke up. 

2. I died again, but with seven few others. 

This happened years after I had that dream in number 1. It was weird because I was very upset. It was in a weird airport where the people that I was with cared less of those they left behind. 

On my end, I was very worried. My family didn't know that I died. Perhaps? I was sad and upset on how I can bring the news at least to my sister or my brother. 

I tried checking my smartphone (Oh yes), and to my surprise, no more contacts were seen. Everything had been reformatted. I tried to look for a telephone line where I can directly call somebody.

Weird and funny, I had to connect to an operator (more of customer service).

It all ended at that point. The same drill, I cried and prayed when I woke up. 

I am not sure on how this may relate to the rapture but I am rigid that the end is coming. 

3. We (me and my friend) were in a bloody war and I was aware that it was only just a dream

It may seem rare, but if you are a fan of the Divergent series, you may want to label me as a DIVERGENT. 

It was a bloody war. People killing each other. There were bombs all over the place. Literally we had to run for our lives. 

Then at the end of it, I simply told my friend (girl): "I know this is only just a dream. I need to go back to the real world now"

My friend responded: "Not yet please. I am still enjoying this sight"

And I replied: "I'm sorry but I'm going back now"

Then I woke up. 


4. I was talking to Jennifer Lopez after her concert

I know you would not even dare to believe me, but this really happened. Though it seemed like a brief encounter but the concert halls were vacated and we talked. 

As simple as that. Dream about her more and you'll see the effects. More or less. 


5. I saw Miley Cyrus wrapped in cartoon-ish sheets in the middle of my room. 

I promise you that I've only dreamed of only two celebrities in my twenty six years. I promise you that. 

Whatever written in the vastness of the internet may or may not be true, but before it's too late, I did dream about seeing her. She was at the middle of my room. 

Alright. My room (along with others) is spaced out with three double-deck beds. It was a gloomy evening. Past 6? Yeah. When I went inside, I saw her. 


As simple as that. Dream about her more and you'll see the effects. More or less. 

ONLY JESUS CAN SAVE YOU. :)

Seven reasons to love Royale's New L'opulent Toner!


The L'opulent series is one step to attaining a perfectly young skin. 



It remains a fact that to have that young-looking and fresh skin, it takes hard work. Hard work would mean patience. 

I am writing this to share this new product to all who are in live search for a cure to pimples and having issues with looking young. 




1. This employs the latest technology in skin micro-exfoliation

Exfoliating would mean getting rid of the old cells and welcoming the newly born cells that make your skin spic and span.

There are various other ways to exfoliate your skin, but this toner can make the most out of your money. The L'opulent series has never failed to make every other woman's expectations drop down to zero. 

This is worth the wait as years of intensive research backs this product innovation. 

2. A hyped-up Pinkish Glow Toner

Arbutin and glutathione are too common, but nothing beats how the old broom takes away the dirt in this planet. Women loved the pinkish glow toner most especially pairing it with Royale Spirulina. 

3. It has lycopene

I remembered how I see korean women do the drill: put lycopene creams on their faces to maintain a pinkish luster all throughout the day. Now that this toner keeps you fresh, and young looking all day, after a matter of time, that pinkish cheeks will be achieved. (of course, no over night change)

But as they say, there should be a two-way support by also endlessly putting tomatoes as part of your daily routine. Make this part of your skin care routine and you can never go wrong. 

4. It refines pores

As by how skin astringents work, this does the magic by combining science and korean technology in coming up with a good medium right after your clean your face. 

5. Affordable and worth a shot

It is only $15 and you will enjoy this for approximately three months. 

6. It smells really good

When it smells good, you will love it more. If it's both smelling good and effective, you will never let this product go. 

7. Packaging makes it worth keeping

Unlike other products in the market, the team made sure that from the inside out will be the mantra of this product. On how good the outer layer is, surely you can expect twice the quality once you try it. 


Word of advice: use your hands instead in applying this to your face and neck. Using a cotton ball wastes a certain volume. Don't forget the upward motion ladies.

Finally, I bid goodbye to the Quarter life crisis.


The worst thing that can ever happen to you is this: LOSE YOURSELF. 

Don't ever lose yourself just because you failed entirely to be the person for everybody. Do not dare to be a celebrity and smile to almost every stranger, win their YES (for now) and be famous (otherwise be infamous). 

You know by heart that it is not the entire page of what life is really about. 

I am hoping you are not living for anybody. So as humbly crossing my fingers that you are now living for yourself and how you envision your life at thirty. Thirty may seem too far but trust me, four more years and you are officially part of the club. Both of us will be part of this. 

Before I forget, Congratulations and you've safely landed ashore. Stay safe, but not all your life. 

Stay safe, and learn to widen your comfort zone. Gain the necessary emotional range enough to make you breathe in, and breathe out. Emotional range makes you more moody but it gives you more parking space for new people in your life.

Don't be a garbage boy or girl. Let those trashes fit in nicely to where they (or these) should rightfully belong. dumpsite

Lessons learned a la carte.

1. Cross the bridge when you get there

2. Life isn't a race. 

3. true friends have true densities. the fake ones float. 

4. Life is never a race. Not even a destination so see it as a journey. 

5. if you do the same things, the same outcome is will obviously stab you. 

6. Stay calm. drink a good cup of coffee. 

7. Walking is a good, really good exercise. 

8. talking to oneself is a splendid stress eater.

9. Crying won't make you less loved. It won't make you less of a person. 

10. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not even boast. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 

11. Love yourself and kill that tendency to f*ckin compare yourself to others. 

12. An apple a day makes 7 apples a week. 

13. Talk to old people and your life will NEVER be the same. Talk to shallow minded seagulls and you will be a seagull all your life. 

14. You reap what you sow. Investing the good seeds of kindness and optimism makes sowing so much easier!

15. Watching this 76-year old Tom and Jerry Cartoon show is way better than all the cartoons combined. Be a kid one minute for each day.

16. Smiling at the mirror makes you realize you're getting old. 

17. Learn this: Throwing stones at all the dogs that bark makes you one of them. Ehem. 

18. Mudslinging with another one makes the both of you the kind of pig who enjoys the mud. Watch out!

19. Listening more and talking less makes you both mature and wiser. 

20. Checking your yearbook pages makes you think you're really really getting old.

21. Getting married is not a race. God has a grandiose plan to give the best person for you. Do not feel the pressure to find love and be broken. 

22. True love waits hence waiting is the right kind of thing for a post quarter life siesta. 

23. Reading a book puts you in a different circle compared to those who baffle at E! News. 

24. Please Marry traveling and the world is now at your backyard. It is now your backyard. To travel a lot, you must work hard. hehe. So working hard and traveling at the same time is being a light traveling in vacuum. 

25. Selling your old things make you save more space and gives you more buck to gauge up your travels! Travel to the moon and forth. 

26. Marrying the one you love is the best piece of advice. What age? Who can tell.
